703 Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Fairfax

It was a rough morning and decided to treat myself. Stopped by this new restaurant around opening time (11:00am) and was quickly seated.

I got a Thai iced tea while I decided what to eat. After several minutes, I ordered:

-MOO PING ($11) Thai style grilled pork skewers w/ sticky rice

-GOLDEN SCALLOP IN TAMARIND SAUCE ($17) Sea scallops fried to golden brown, glazed with our flavorful tamarind sauce and served with steamed vegetables

I began to eat my pork skewers and although tough to eat, it was okay with the sweet chili sauce and sticky rice. In fact, the sticky rice was my favorite part. Soon after the waitress brought out the main entree. The scallop had too much batter in my opinion and the steamed vegetables were bland as expected.

We have been to 703 Thai Cuisine few times in the past. Decent food and drinks. A little bit on the pricier side, but we didn't mind as long as the food is good and ambience is well.

If it is a No it is a No. Instead, the lady said I already looked drunk while I haven't had a drink at all. My whole family was mortified. Not planning to go there anytime soon. Lost me...

Went for a Valentines dinner and had a great meal. We ordered the rolling duck roti, tom yum soup, and the nua num tok (spicy steak salad...my fave!) for appetizers. They came out quickly and were all so good. We also ordered chicken pad thai and pork drunken noodles, which were both among the best we've ever had, and with huge portions. The service is attentive and fast considering there is really just one server and two other staff helping bring out the dishes. Prices are what you expect given inflation today, but we thought it was a good value for all the wonderful food we were served. The interior is well decorated considering the dining space must have originally been designed as an atrium restaurant for a 1980's hotel. Can't...
