Stumbled across Silk elephant after the Pittsburgh rain storms. Immediately im amazed by not only the atmosphere, but the prices! On top of that, Generous portions, fast -friendly service, & affordable. This place has all the potential to be a hidden gem that I would definitely gatekeep. But, the food fell a little short.
What we ordered
Food: Salmon dumplings 10/10 these need a bigger portion !!!
Crab crowns: 9/10 nothing special but not skimpy...
This is without a doubt a great spot for a satisfying meal! I had the Pad See Ew noodles and they were absolutely delicious. I went with a spice level of 3—it had a nice kick but was still very manageable and enjoyable. I also tried the Thai iced tea; while it was flavorful, it was a bit too sweet for my taste.
Luncheon Pad Thai was dry, tasteless, and devoid of any veg or protein but 6 very overcooked shrimp, the latter costing a $2.00 up-charge. Lots of cream cheese in their appitizer/tapas items...a new feature of Thai cuisine? Complimentary sides of a small salad and spring roll were average. Others at table had better luck with a veggie mix in brown sauce, but no raves. The best item was a pumpkin curry off the regular menu at a dinner price. Server was good, atmosphere drab....
