Kortney, Allison and I tried the Taste of Thaiyai restaurant tonight for the first time and I have just one word… Amazing! The food was fabulous and the service was unbeatable. There were 3 different people working (including the chef) and each of them stopped by to make sure we were happy. There was never a moment when we wanted for anything.
As we were discussing our food choices, our waitress was walking by and overheard Allison say she wanted to have the Chicken Curry. She didn’t say a word, just kept moving but did write a note on her pad that Allison wanted it. When she came back to take our orders, she asked if that’s what Allie still wanted. Talk about service! Several other things occurred, leaving a lasting positive impression, but the final act of kindness was when the chef/owner came out to make sure we enjoyed our meal. We did, of course, and told him so but the serving sizes were too large for the girls to finish so we asked for “to-go” boxes. He asked if we were sure it was good because “the girls hardly ate any of their food”. I assured him we loved it and wanted to take it home to eat later (maybe tonight if I’m feeling naughty). He (the chef/owner mind you), brought out a new box of rice for us to take home, another big box for the left over Pad Thai, two plastic containers for the left over curries and proceeded to box and bag everything for us. Talk about old school customer service. Now days they throw a Styrofoam container at you, expect you to load it yourself and expect you to fit everything into one container.
Needless to say, this place is highly recommended. The next time you’re in Apple Valley, be sure to swing in and enjoy some fabulous food and amazing service.
