"My knowledge of Thai cuisine is somewhat limited, so I opted for Pad Thai accompanied by a side of coconut soup. The soup arrived first, perfectly balanced in spice and a feast for the eyes. A few moments later, the Pad Thai was served, and I actually wished it had come a bit later, as I was still thoroughly enjoying the soup. The soup was packed with large, fresh mushroom slices — A+.
The Pad Thai was equally impressive. I chose chicken as my protein, although shrimp and tofu are also available options. I asked for extra minced peanuts, as I believe they add a nice crunch to the noodles' texture. Interestingly, it seemed that the soup contained more chicken than the Pad Thai.
At first glance, the menu at Line Thai can be a bit confusing, but if you turn to the back, you'll find enticing photos of the featured dishes. New diners might initially confuse the name "Line" with "product line" or some geometric term, but once you realize it’s just the name of the restaurant, the menu becomes clearer. The photo of their deep-fried banana dessert looked incredibly tempting, and it’s a must-try for my next visit.
The food at Line Thai rivals that of any upscale restaurant. Don’t be misled by the lack of tablecloths and candles; this is fine dining in a casual setting.
Entrees are priced under $20, which is standard for dinner menus, and my total was $27 before tip, making it a great deal for such a private dining experience, especially in today’s economy.
I suspect that Line Thai hasn’t been open for long. Once local office workers discover this gem, my leisurely solo dining experience will be a thing of the past — there will definitely be a line."
