"Heading toward its second anniversary in the Arts District, a locals-oriented spot led by chef-owner Jompon Chotikamars serves Bangkok street food and Southern Thai–style flavors; D E Thai Kitchen replaced Rock’N’oodles a few steps from Charleston Boulevard back in 2018 and is promising a second location that should debut "before summer." Signage is already up at the Desert Diamond Plaza retail center (at the intersection of Windmill Lane and Las Vegas Boulevard), less than a mile from the Las Vegas South Premium Outlets and sitting next to Farmers Market Hawaii; the new space is larger than the 900-square-foot original but is expected to keep the casual counter-service atmosphere. Its very popular menu features tom yum and tom kha soups, larb salad, rice and noodle choices with a spin on pad Thai and pad see eiw favorites, a full range of curries, and adventurous house specials including the colorful yen ta fo pink seafood noodle soup and deep-fried tilapia dishes." - Bradley Martin
