text: Been wanting to check out a Thai place other than Lotus of Siam (you know, just to see what's out there - I could eat LOS daily)\n\nAnyway, the place has character!  It's in a tough area but once you get inside it is very comfortable and quaint.  The server and manager were both so nice and friendly.  \n\nWent for an early dinner around 6:00pm and was surprised we were NOT the only people there considering the location (also BTW you can't turn south onto 3rd from Charleston because of some road repairs).  In fact, by the time we left more than half the tables were occupied (on a Tuesday, no conventions in town).  Also saw multiple customers come in for takeout.  \n\nBBQ Chicken - this is the house specialty and it was solid, although the only thing that really made it Thai was the sweet-tangy sauce they served it with.  Be sure to eat it all while it's hot - there was a piece of chicken left at the end of the meal which had gotten cold and I ate - defintely better hot!\n\nBBQ Pork -  Also solid and also couldn't tell they were \"Thai\" except for the sauce.\n\nPineapple fried rice - This was very well executed.  Some places add too much curry spice but this was not the case here.\n\nDrunken Noodle with Shrimp - Extra spicy, \"9/10 Thai Spicy not American Spicy please\" - Even with all that request it was still not superhot.  However, it had a decent amount of heat and the dish was phenomenal.  I enjoyed this dish so much that I placed an extra order to-go for lunch next day \"just a leeeeetle bit more spicy please!\"\n\nI wouldn't make the trip to downtown just to dine here but if in the area I would go back, especially if I was in the mood for BBQ.  Apparently there are two other locations, but a friend told me that this is the best location of the three.\n\nAlso, I thought this place super cheap.  The four entrees mentioned above were $45 with tip.
