Galae Thai

This was my first and my last time eating here. The dumplings (Kanom Jeeb) were in a plastic container and also wrapped in plastic with the toppings added on top of the plastic wrapper — really? They are much smaller than what I’ve eaten elsewhere, and are pork heavy. I took one bite of one dumpling and did not find it tasteful. Then I tried the soup (Tom Kha Gai). The chicken breast pieces were thin and overcooked so I plucked them out of the soup. Okay, one more dish to taste — the noodles. The Drunken Noodles would have been good if they were not too soft and stuck together. I ended up pouring the soup over the noodles and eating it as one meal. Actually for as much as I paid for this meal it was not a good value — inflation size portions 😉. When I picked up the meal there was

A great restaurant for Thai food in Alexandria. I have visited this place several times in the past years. Excellent location , Excellent Thai food, Excellent service. Enjoyed the Thai tea almost every time I visited there. They have plenty of room and well decorated space. I found the price is little high though.

The restaurant was quite quiet and the staff was really nice and helpful. The ‘Thai’ food felt like fusion Thai/ Chinese rather than authentic Thai food. For people who don’t eat spicy food - here you would only find just a very mild spiciness. However, the food tasted quite nice with a fair price. On a side note, the parking spaces outside were quite limited.

Tried their Ramen and Pad Thai Noodles. Both tasted delicious. Finished the meal off with the coconut ice cream. Loved it as well. The server was very kind and provided great service. Loved the overall experience.

A beautiful setting for a delicious lunch of Pad Eggplant ($17.95) with Thai Iced Tea ($4.99). Excellent service. Close to the Eisenhower Metro.
