Came here on a Thursday evening for dinner with the gf. It's a pretty nice Thai restaurant on the corner that has outdoor seating on the sidewalk. They also have a noodle bar attached to the side, but was not open, but they were still serving the items from the menu. Staff members are super friendly and are pretty attentive to us.
We started off with drinks and both were made beautifully. Just a Minute ($16) is an Irish Gin drink with Aperol, Jasmine essential, egg white, and lemon juice. Chili The Eyes ($16) is a Mezcal drink with long hot chili, pineapple juice, lime juice and syrup. I am a fan of mezcal and then with the added spiciness enhances the drink.
For appetizers, we had Rock Shrimp ($12), which are fried shrimps sprinkled with mango and green apple served with special chef sauce. Can not go wrong with these. We also had the BBQ Ribs ($14), which are seasoned char-marinated with BBQ sauce. The meat is fall off the bone good and the sauce on the ribs are phenomenal. We also got the Papaya Salad ($14), consisting of fresh papaya, carrot, tomato, string bean, peanut, chili, and spicy sweet lime dressing. It's a good cold dish to have.
For entrees, we shared the Muse Curry ($18) w Duck (+$13). This is a homemade curry paste, fresh coconut milk, bok choy, and asparagus served with jasmine rice or steamed rice noodle. We got the jasmine rice as we like soaking the rice in curry. The sauce wasn't spicy, but tastes delicious. The duck is well made and not oily or dry.
We also got the Muse Bay ($21) from their available noodle bar menu, which is homemade roasted pork, crispy belly, bok choy, steamed chicken dumpling, egg, noodle, garlic oil, scallion, cilantro, and chili powder. This thing had probably everything you'll ever need in terms of meat. The broth is served on the side for you to pour into the bowl yourself or however you want to consume this dish. I personally like eating the crispy pork belly while it's still crispy and everything else I did not mind soaking it in with the broth. This wasn't really spicy as advertised, but it's delicious.
Overall, loved this Thai spot. If you live in this area, I envy you as you have a nice variation of options to choose from while also being unique and authentic.
