Leela Thai Restaurant offers an authentic Thai dining experience with quick service and generous portion sizes. The Chicken Panang Curry is a must-try, with its fresh, creamy, and rich flavors, perfectly spicy at level 5. It is served with a big pile of rice, ideal for soaking up the curry's juices. The restaurant also serves delicious dishes like Drunken Noodles with extra veggies and extra chicken, which are very filling, and the crunchy veggie spring rolls that are always fresh, crispy, and flavorful. The Thai Iced Tea is popular for its strong yet well-balanced taste. Prices are reasonable, with a meal for two costing around $30.
Vegetarian options are available, especially curries made with mock duck or vegetables. Although the potstickers come in an odd number of five, the restaurant scores high with a 10/10 rating overall. While some dishes like beef may vary in quality, customers are eager to return, praising the flavorful dishes from drunken noodles to veggie rolls, soups, and wine. The friendly staff provide warm welcomes, quick refills, and pleasant service. Leela Thai Restaurant remains a favorite spot for authentic Thai food, highly recommended for its quality and value.
