Surprisingly (from a Thai Restaurant)The orange chicken was fantastic. Crispy, flavorful, and not overly sweet like some places make it. The pad isn't the 'typical' pad Thai we're used to but it was packed with flavor. The fried rice was a solid side, nothing fancy, just good, classic fried rice.
We also got the massaman curry, which was so fragrant and rich. The egg rolls are huge and clearly handmade. Definitely a step above your standard takeout egg roll. Tom Kha (not pictured) was so creamy and authentic tasting.
Now, a word of warning: the spice levels here are NO joke. I usually go for a medium spice at other Thai places, so I ordered a '1' here. My husband, who loves heat, thinks '3' is spicy, '4' is very spicy and '5' is sweating spicy (TUMS required). So, definitely err on the side of caution when ordering spice here. I'd say a '0.5' is more like a standard medium.
The atmosphere is really cute and eclectic. It's not a fancy place, but it's cozy and colorful. The staff was friendly and attentive. And the Thai tea? Delicious! So creamy and flavorful.
Overall, I'd definitely recommend Secret Thai as an all around good Thai restaurant. The food is great, the atmosphere is charming, and the prices are reasonable. Be prepared for 3 days of leftovers!
EDITED TO ADD:
Basil fried rice is incredibly flavorful and delicious. Has a sweetness. Personally I would chose over the tbaj fried rice.
Ghost gate pad Thai (omelet on top) is superb, it's somehow the same but different. I find the egg soaks up the sauce and becomes even more flavorful.
Green curry was tasty. Huge chunks of eggplant. Spicy at baseline so be careful adding more.
Egg rolls are definitely homemade, comes with a unique sweet chili sauce.
Orange chicken again 10/10, enough food for a village. Probably a whole chicken.
