The Scene
Fabulous Thai sculptures and framed artwork contrast with futuristic light fixtures in a color scheme featuring blue and purple. The dining area is small--fewer than 15 tables tightly spaced--so it can feel crowded, but it's a place that's abuzz with activity, where people of all ages feel welcome.
The Food
From appetizers to entrees, the food is outstanding. Begin with moist, tender chicken satay or delicate spring rolls, or try the more unusual tofu tod: Chunks of deep-fried tofu served with a piquant sweet and sour sauce and a slightly sweet cucumber sauce. Soups are exceptional--from velvety coconut soup, thick with chicken and mushrooms, to sour and spicy seafood combination of shrimp, scallops, squid, mussels and seasonal fish. Traditional main courses include a wonderful rendition of pad thai, as well as an array of delectable wok-fried dishes and curries. Spiced to order, each memorable dish can easily serve two or provide plenty of leftovers.

I went to Thai Siam on their opening day and fell in love with their Massaman. We've been back numerous times and returned again tonight with our friends who were nervous about Thai food. We ordered Massaman, Pad Thai, Citrus Curry, chicken and peanut sauce and the Tom Kha Gai Soup. Everything was amazing and our friends were highly complimentary. We came home with leftovers and dug right into them again! I've been to Thai places all over the country and world and this is a great place, always a treat.

This place is good for a quick lunch, pricing is very reasonable, but I must agree with others that this place is "slipping..." service not as good as before, food seams 'rushed" not like before, service staff not as attentive as before, but all in all good for lunch, with good pricing... I recommend you request 'real Thai style' from your server and the cook will adjust to a more authentic flavor...

When to Go:
At the height of the dinner hour, the place is usually packed--arrive early or late to avoid a wait and enjoy a more peaceful dining experience.
Mind Your Mouth:
"Medium" is actually extremely spicy, so be cautious in describing how hot you would like your entree.
Choice of Meat:
Most main courses can be prepared with chicken, beef or pork; if you don't remember to specify your preference, you're likely to get beef.
