Sirinya's Thai Restaurant & Lounge — Restaurant in Airway Heights

If you ask me how many stars for the menu... I'll give it a 4plus, easily! The menu selection is great!

Depending on What you order though... it may drop a star point...

My husband liked his food okay, but he felt it didn't have much taste compared to what he gets at other Thai restaurants. It wasn't Bad, but it wasn't Great either.

I, on the other hand, Loved the flavor of my dish, I give it an easy 4plus. However, we both noticed they were lacking on sauces.

We like our main Thai entre to have heavy sauces, so the rice side or whatever other side can use it too.

Mine had just enough to blend with my rice, but just barely.

His, not so much. He Did eat all of it, Except for the rice that was just plain ol, plain ol..,

I had a shrimp dish and expected the bare minimum amount of shrimp like most places use, but I was pleasantly surprized the shrimp were very large and enough I was able to share a few with my husband without feeling I was loosing anything.

The "feel" of this place was a cozy clash of older western diner and pool bar. Not that of a traditional Thai restaurant. But it worked.

Although the place never had more than a couple tables occupied at any time while we were dining there, the phones kept going. I'm assuming they do a great deal of take out there during the 5-6pm hrs. Bit it could possibly pick up with the later night crowd because of the pool bar set up. That's just my thoughts as I looked around the empty restaurant while I sat waiting for our appetizer.

Now, II always thought appetizers were supposed to come Before your meal, so you can snack lightly while waiting for the actual meal to be prepared and served. Right?

Unfortunately for us, appetizers Dont come Before your dinner here... they come with your dinner, and slightly after swrved.

To sum it all up... They're Shrimp gets a big Yay... They're sweet and sour gets a simple Pass.

I was happy to see Thai iced coffee listed in drinks and mango rice on the desert menu. I had one of each. You can't go wrong with mango...

I popped by the other day for some takeout as I just wanted to get home and relax after work while trying a new place. It was a little after 1pm, so there weren't a lot of people. The server was alright. Not the friendliest human I've met, but that often goes in hand with a lot Asian places. So I don't think too much of it and chalk it up to a culture thing. I asked if I could do takeout, and he just pointed to the menu and said "menu there." Again, not rude per say but not super friendly either. I ordered Phad Thai and Peanut sauce. He said to sit and wait and walked off with no other direction. I wasn't sure where to sit other than on the very edge of a booth so as not to dirty the table as I wasn't staying. The wait wasn't bad, and I got out of there in about 15 minutes. Once I got home (about 5 minutes away), I opened up my food, and it was plated nicely. The food itself was mediocre, and the peanut sauce was not awesome. While I don't think I'll be returning, all in all, it wasn't a bad experience. Maybe I caught it on an off day based on the other reviews. And I know that with takeout sometimes things aren't as good as when you sit down. Would I recommend it based on this? Not really, but again, perhaps I caught it...

ADVISORY TO REVIEWERS: The owner is consistently taken aback by the idea that people might not have a great experience. The replies to negative reviews are asking people if they were "sure that they went to the right Thai restaurant." (Reviews are not a direct reflection upon the owner, don't take it personally. Accept the feedback and try to resolve the problem.) This place is confusing to go into. The atmosphere felt like a flea market mixed with an old-west saloon. The food was OK, but it didn't have the authentic flavor that one would expect in Thai food. The green onions and basil (corrected from veggies) in the Pad Thai seemed very old as though it was prepared at the beginning of the day. The rice was a bit on the mushy side, but the flavors were not bad. Note: This was a take-out order, so my view of the place was a hallway with chuck-wagon wheels leading to an area with some very colorful lighting, not too dissimilar from a night club. The area that I paid also has a glass case with items for sale, like hats and jewelry, so my mind went to "flea market". Just so you know I was actually there.

PS. Neutral reviews are not bad reviews. That's why there is a scaling system...
