Wow - this place was such a pleasant surprise!
It was my birthday, and we were in a dire situation because two young ones were out and about celebrating with us. Spacca Napoli already had a 1.5 hour wait time at 5pm, which I can't be too surprised about, because that place is awesome. However, we needed something to eat fast. Lucky for us, we found Anna's Thai Kitchen nearby, and as it turns out it wasn't just good for getting us out of a bind - it was just straight up FANTASTIC.
I am a big fan of Thai food, and this is some of the best my group and I have ever had. First, the panang curry was excellent, and didn't hold back on the flavor or the heat. Next, my mom could not stop raving about her drunken noodles (pad kee mao). I'd have to say they were the best I've ever had as well. The Thai Crying Tiger Steak dinner was another level of fantastic, and especially when ordered medium rare - I would definitely order this dish on a return visit. Last, and perhaps least, the Neau Num Tok (beef salad) was a bit similar to the Tiger Steak, but not quite as good (less tender cut of meat). It definitely wasn't my favorite version of a beef salad, so I would say to skip it and order the former dish instead for your Thai beef fix.
For drinks I tried the Summer Butterfly Pea Drink with boba AND, because it was my birthday, the virgin sangria. Both were excellent! I would describe the butterfly pea drink as a rather glamorous limeade (since I feel like a lot of the flavor comes from the lime juice you pour in). The virgin sangria tastes like the non-alcoholic grape juice you can get around New Year's, but better, and it comes with plenty of floating fruit for you to pick at once the drink is gone.
Service was kind, warm, and excellent. The restaurant itself was clean and inviting. You do have to view the menu via QR code, which is not a trend I overly favor. Do be prepared for that. Prices are also a little rough, but probably not too bad for the area. Besides, the quality is good and all of the food is made to order.
Overall, I would highly recommend a visit here for any fans (or prospective fans) of Thai cuisine. I wish we lived closer so we could visit more often and try more things! Either way, we will make a point to come back.
