Siam Cuisine--restaurant Review

First to Dollar Tree then to lunch before going to Winn-Dixie--our Thursday route which we occasionally change with lunch before of after! I had a groupon for the Siam Cuisine where I hadn't been in awhile so off we went. My first reaction was they have kept the place up and in good shape only to be told later that it was being torn down and made into a double-decker restaurant! In any case Allen had the scallops with vegetables ($20.95) and I had the Pad Thai with seafood ($24.95). These were dinner prices as the groupon wasn't good for lunch prices though it didn't say that on the agreement. I didn't argue with the server because I just didn't feel like being upset before and while eating! :O) The food was tasty but the plates were wobbling on the table! Obviously not the best dinnerware. We were served a scoop of vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup which I guess came with the meal--lunch and/or dinner? With Allen's cola the check came to $11.30 plus I left $8.70 tip so with what I paid for the groupon ($22) lunch cost us about $20 each. We would have done better with just ordering off the lunch menu. As I said it has been awhile since I was at Siam Cuisine and it will probably be awhile before I go back again even considering the renovations they will be doing.

The food was tasty. That's how the ole lady answers when I ask about my cooking. I want to know if it was spicy or too salty or too mushy or undercooked. Tasty. Oh well,.

It was not "spicy or too salty or too mushy or undercooked." It was tasty.

They must be doing very well to be contemplating all that construction. The way they handled the Groupon sounds a bit Bait and Switch. Yesterday I had a rare meal out at an Olive Garden with neighbors from the canyon. I know everyone says 'Olive Garden isn't Italian food' and I didn't consider the Chicken Marsala with Mashed Potatoes to be Italian, but it was well-prepared and tasted good.

They have been in that one location for over 40 years that I know of--that might be why they are rebuilding it--just hope they don't go too 'modern'.
I like Olive Garden for their all u can eat bread sticks, salad and soup!

Expensive and no mention of the food.
