  If you are looking for authentic Thai food, this is yet another place that disappoints. For about $20+, I did get a nice hunk of grilled Ahi (although it was overdone), a few shrimp, and sparse steamed veggies.
  Almost as an after thought, a bland red curry sauce was added. The dish also had a scope of Jasmine rice. It was apparent that the bland curry sauce was cooked alone & tasted just as bland as the owners other nearby Take Out place. The ingredients were generally seemed fresh...except for the wilted Basil.
  If one had no clue about was Thai food should taste like, then either place will do. Especially since the clueless girl who took the order did not even ask about what level of spiciness you wanted, you could tell immediately that this was not true Thai food.
  Apparently, they likely make it bland to cater to American tastes & also to cut down on the costs of the spices/ complexity involve. Interestingly enough there are several other Thai places in the greater SLO area that are generally more authentic.
  
  As for the dinning experience....well just as there other place, it is mostly sit-down self-serve outside experience. Since you have limited choices in this area....fairly decent-good dinning is either here...or across the street at the Sculpted Egg.
  
  Here at this Cafe, if you get the Thai mindset out of your head, you can enjoy it better. Again the Ahi was very good, but overdone on the grill.
  
  Oh...BTW the wait can be significant & is just as long as across the street in the Egg place.

  We loved the red curry and stir fry with shrimps. The red curry is one of the best ones I've seen. Highly recommended!
