Unfortunately, Siam Station was such a let down. I came around the opening time for dinner, and there were already patrons getting to go orders, but my family and I were among the first ones to be seated for dinner. The service was prompt, and the food came out at a good timing. It's a very small restaurant with maybe like 5-6 tables inside and a few tables outside.
As for the food, we ordered everything spicy, but it tasted like no spice was added whatsoever. Even the chili peppers had no spice to them, so if you like spice, ask for extra extra extra spice.
- Tom Yum with Shrimp: Shrimp was great, very fresh and had a good crunch to it. The soup itself had a nice balance of flavor, and like I said previously, despite all of the chili peppers in the soup, there was no spice at all.
- Pad Seew with Chicken: Probably the BIGGEST disappointment of all. The pad seew was so bland, as if they were missing the sauce all together. It didn't really even taste like pad seew. I do appreciate the veggies having a nice crunch to it, but damn, overall, a skip.
- Crispy Rice Salad: Probably my favorite of the night, great flavor and I love the crunch of the rice.
- Catfish: Salty, which definitely contrasted to the salt levels in other dishes, but tastes good with rice. Well coated in sauce.
- Roasted Duck Curry: Pretty good, good amount of duck in there. There was lychee in here, which I thought was a good addition, nice touch of sweetness.
As for the service, started out good, but didn't end great. I had asked for boxes to go, and I initially calculated 5 boxes in my head so I had asked one of the girls for 5 boxes. Her reaction: "5????" with her eyes wide. I had to then go through each dish I wanted to take home with her for her to agree to get the boxes for me, which ended up being 3 at first. However, I realized that we didn't include the extra rice, so when she came back, I had asked her to bring another box for us, and she didn't make any eye contact and didn't say a single word - overall, just didn't seem as though she was happy that I had asked for to go boxes. My bad for initially miscounting the boxes though.
Likely will not be returning, as I feel there are much better Thai Restaurants with better overall service and food.
