Sawasdee thai

"The search for good to great restaurants in the Reno lake Tahoe region continues!!!!!! We are constantly trying new places to review in this area. Our second Thai food restaurant in Reno to try Asian restaurant(s) for the most part can be an expensive proposition. I understand now how much my parents spent when as a family of 5, they would indulge us at Chinese restaurant in Chinatown s.f. Even for a couple it can get pricey. We found this restaurant on mccaran Blvd in a nice shopping center. We watched as customers entered the business many coming out with takeout. We did a dine in. We ordered pineapple chicken fried rice, chicken satay, crab cheese rangoons, and tom yum seafood soup. In most Thai restaurants we have attended, the server will always ask us how hot/spicy we want the food. Usually on a scale of 1 to 10, we ask for an 8. All based on perception. Watch out for those ghost chillis. At this restaurant no one asked. I had to ask for a basket of chili peppers, ground chili, etc. The food was good . The crab cheese rangoons, pineapple chicken fried rice and chicken satay were cooked just right. Chicken was moist, rangoons cheesy, but really couldn't taste the crab. The pineapple chicken fried rice had ample pieces of chicken, pineapple and cashews . The soup was a little disappointing. One the spicynes was not there. I had to add ground chili. As for ingredients, I am used to more, shellfish still in the shell, crab legs and claws, as well as fish. This particular soup had none of that. Otherwise ok, but the price a little high for 4 dishes and 2 Thai coffees. The search in Reno continues."

"It's my family's favorite Thai restaurant in the area. Really good food! We usually get Thai fried rice, drunken noodles, pad Thai, or their red (or green) curry. They also have some really good appetizers! Would recommend!"

"Server was nice. Green Papaya salad was good and my thick noodle, I forgot the name was great. But next time I ask them not to add bell pepper and mint. My husband ordered duck curry. It was very rich. There is many Thai restaurant in Reno. This is a kinda Thai street food taste? I like it."

"An excellent Thai food experience! Our waiter came to check on us frequently and was very accommodating of our vegan diet. We loved the avocado curry, curry puffs, and mango sticky rice. The atmosphere was peaceful with lofi music playing in the background. We will be coming back."

"Stopped by here on our way back from Reno to try based on the reviews. Crab pad thai was great with real crab meat, 4.5*, beef and tofu see ew were good, 4.5*, the coconut curry was tasty with the coconut meat, 5*, som tum papaya salad was good,4*, chicken satay,4*, but the mango sticky rice was a let down,2.5*-way too sweet, small mango portion, and too "soggy." The portions were generous and didn't skimp on the meats, crab, and shrimps (coconut curry had lots of shrimp). Overall, a solid 4* for me."
