Local Restaurant Week: Sun Cuisines


I love trying new places and Local Restaurant Week is the best time to do so. Thai food is one of my favorite dishes and when a friend suggested Sun Cuisines I could not wait to try it. I made sure to make a reservation knowing restaurant week is always busy time anywhere you go.
We arrived on time and the restaurant was packed. We were seated immediately in a booth. The restaurant was very nicely decorated with dark wood and large pictures of orange sunsets. It was a soothing atmosphere. After waiting for about 15 minutes, a waiter finally came to our table. We asked for water and ordered drinks and dinner. The drinks came soon after, but not water. Another 15-20 minutes later, my entree arrived with the appetizer. I completely understand they were very busy, and, unfortunately, this was the trend for every table. People were being sat and neglected. The food, however, was very good, except for one minor detail. In my entree and my friends', we found ingredients that were not listed in the menu. My Prew Wan came with mushrooms, which I would have noticed on the menu and asked to be taken out since I am not a fan of. In my friend's Mango Chicken were jalapeno pieces. Also not on the menu. 
While the service was not the best, the food was very tasty. I am definitely willing to try this place again. I don't think my experience is the normal service level. maybe they were short staffed or over booked. My advice, go on an off night like a Monday or Tuesday.
