Lai Thai

We ordered two shrimp pad thai and a chicken yellow curry with rice. The chicken yellow curry had 6 small chicken bites, a lot of white rice and some veggie ornaments. The curry itself didn't taste like coconut milk and thai spices but rather tasted like chicken broth powder and mirapoix. I had to ask for lime and chili to improve the flavor profile a little. The pad Thais were watery and they misplaced an order that had chicken and shrimp, again skimping on the portions they only added 4 shrimps. The tofu they added was like a sponge, no texture or flavor whatsoever. We paid for everything a total of clp 48 thousand. It's not cheap for a meal but if it had been less mediocre maybe it'd be worthwhile. As an alternative I would recommend Siam-Thai in the Italia neighborhood in Providencia, it has excellent food, service and ambiance plus it is in a touristic place such as Italia neighborhood. I don’t think I’ll be coming back.

I try it during lunch and it really disappointed me .. the place is small, which is ok if you define a place like "picada" but do not have "Picada prices", I did not like the dishes "chilenized" or softened for the Chilean palate, which was confirmed by the staff, so if you are a traveler and you like that type of food ... do not go.. If you are Chilean and you want to try the taste of true Thai food, look for another option

Considering the price and how much you spend in total this is the best Thai option you have in Santiago. They've opened a couple of branches in the city, but this is is worth for it's surrounding neighborhood. Barrio Franklyn is a must when visitig Santiago
