  Pleasant Thai food. Portion sizes for appetizers are small in comparison to other Thai restaurants so be prepared and order accordingly. Ideally, I would give them a 3.5 star rating, but I just can't bring myself to give them 4 stars. It was nice, I'd be willing to order takeout from here again, especially as an alternative to cooking on a busy evening. But, all things considered, food quality, value, portion sizes, etc. it didn't blow me away. Below is a dish-by-dish breakdown of what we ordered:
  
  Chicken Satay - SMALL portion - only 3 skewers. They use a classic Thai marinade which was tasty. The chicken was a bit tough but the flavor was good. Sauces were also nice. My main recommendation would be to allow the chicken to marinate a little more so it becomes more tender.
  
  Crispy Shrimp - Individual shrimp wrapped in a wonton wrapper and fried. Not particularly complex, the sauce is really doing the "heavy lifting" here. It was OK, very unlikely that I would order this again.
  
  Steamed Dumplings - The steamed chicken and mushroom dumplings were tasty and reminiscent of dim sum. I would recommend these.
  
  Crispy Orchid Spring Rolls - As with everything, these are smaller than your typical spring roll. They also incorporate chicken into the spring roll which is different. As far as flavor, it was good. Think, good typical spring roll and you know what it tastes like. They wrap the spring rolls very tightly which gives the roll a different mouth feel (eg vs a Chinese spring roll), but the flavor is nice. I would order this again.
  
  Pad Thai with shrimp - 4 small to medium shrimp came with this dish. Literally 4. If you're charging $16 for Pad Thai, that's a bit skimpy. As far as flavor, it was OK. The balance between salty, sweet, tangy and spice was a bit off. It leaned more towards sweet than anything else (as many Thai restaurants are starting to do, unfortunately). I believe this phenomenon stems from what people consider to be the "American palate". I, personally, prefer a more balanced Pad Thai, but, it wasn't bad. My main complaint with this dish is one that I have had in many Thai restaurants which is that the noodles absorbed the flavor of the packaging. This is a common problem for rice noodles. I've had this happen myself purchasing certain brands of rice noodles and making Pad Thai at home and I've seen this in many restaurants. My suggestion would be to test out a different supplier for their noodles.
