text: As a Shadyside resident, Thai Place is one of my go-to restaurants for both takeout and eat-in meals. I have always had wonderful, almost bordering on overly-attentive service, even when the restaurant is fairly full.\n\nMy absolute favorite dish is the Penang curry tofu. The tofu is served soft, but flavorful, with a sprinkling of vegetables, and an abundance of coconut milk-based Penang curry sauce. The sauce is consistently well-prepared, savory, and at my chosen spice level. My second favorite would be the Sizzling Tofu, a soft-fried tofu dish with a plethora of fresh crispy vegetables in a light brown sauce.\n\nThe only negative aspect of my review is that the prices are slightly higher for the volume of food received as compared to other similar local restaurants.\n\nI would definitely recommend this restaurant for both vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores. I'm vegan and the servers have always been willing to answer my questions, and work with me to ensure that my dish is made fresh and without the ingredients I choose not to consume.
