"My recent visit to the King and I Thai restaurant's new location in Richmond Heights was a mixed bag. While the service started off friendly, things took a turn when we mentioned that one of the dishes was excessively salty. The waitress's demeanor shifted, as she informed us that the Papaya Salad contained soy sauce and fish sauce, implying that was the cause of the saltiness. Honestly, we've dined out and enjoyed Thai food before—we're familiar with soy and fish sauce, and this salad was simply too salty and unbalanced. There was no apology or suggestion for a substitute. The other dishes were decent, but the overall experience was soured, not by the salad alone, but by the waitress's response. To top it off, they didn’t even provide us with a check; they simply entered the total on the card machine and expected us to pay without seeing the bill. That was a first for me."
