Soi Thai Street Food is not your typical Thai restaurant. As their name suggests, they only serve Thai street food, so you won't find any curries or Pad Thai here. Instead, you will find skewers, Som Tam (green papaya salad), chicken wings, etc .
The interior tries to mimic the 'Soi' (Thai for side street) vibe, which I think they did a really good job. The owners also brought in some bits of snacks from Thailand which I think it's very cute.
We went there around 5-6pm on a Sunday and we were the only one there. We ordered Stir Fry Morning Glory, Som Tam, Chicken Wings, Khai Krata Song Krung (ground pork with fried eggs), shrimps with garlic, steamed rice (they also have sticky rice), and Thai milk tea - which was overly too sweet. I've added a glass of water to make it less sweet but it was still too sweet for me...
Overall, the food was okay... I liked the Stir Fry Morning Glory and Khai Krata Song Krung the best. I mean, what could get wrong with pork and eggs! The shrimps with garlic were too garlic-ky for me and some of the chicken wings were raw. We mentioned that to the waiter and a few minutes later, the owner (I think) came back to us with more (double portion) chicken wings and she made sure that won't happen again. I think it was pretty nice of her. We noticed that they divided the outer part of wings into two and the inner part (drumstick look-alike) was bigger and has more meat - so if cooked together, the outer smaller part is done while the drumstick-part needs more time to cook...Hope it makes sense lol.
Did I mention the waiter also gave our dog a bowl of water to drink? He really made sure that we got the best service.
