"Golden Thai, a small University Village restaurant, is the epitome of a neighborhood go-to. The usual suspects—think curries, noodles, and stir-fries—are reliable, and an in-person meal will give you a front-row seat to the parade of locals getting takeout. The casual space (minus the ornate elephant art gracing the walls) is low-key enough for a solo meal on a Tuesday night when you don’t particularly feel like talking to anyone, but it’s best enjoyed with a friend (or two, or any small group really). You’ll want to share some stuff, like the gently spicy green curry fragrant with lemongrass, or a big plate of drunken noodles that, while a little saucier and sweeter than we like, has a generous helping of pleasantly crisp vegetables." - Veda Kilaru
