Taste of Las Cruces: Flavorful, fresh options abound at Thai Delight

Great review! Must try soon!

They will do well there. It's a nice change from all the taco-burrito-gordita restaurants and it's healthful and fresh. It's in the old Andele's.

did not read article...but I will...because I noticed Carlos Lopez did not write it...

He did a great job in Organ and I just ate there under the new management, it's still good. Here's wishing him luck in the new location.
The review goes down as smoothly as the food. Carlos Lopez had nothing to do with either.

Yuck. Yuck. Yuck. Being from Seattle, maybe the quality I've come to expect in a Thai restaurant is a little high, but I ordered the Pad Ki Mao and ended up with dry, soy sauce covered noodles with little/no flavor. The salad was probably the best part, but seeing as it was only grocery store bagged lettuce and a little cup of dressing, not worth the 10$. I'll stick with the Empire Buffet for all things Asian. At least I can have as much as I want and not expect actual "Thai" cuisine.

Its ok. Nothing special. Zero ambiance. Mesilla needs more choices besides mexican food. The bean is a fun place in the morning but the bread is dry and the breakfast is mediocre. Josefinas food is a joke but has the ambiance. The other new place Amelias has great food at a fair price ,ambiance and patio but mostly mexican but I have had an excellent bratwurst when they have it. La posta food is disgusting but has the charming building. Double eagle and peppers is ok food but overpriced. Andeles just. another mexican restaurant that is overpriced. The hot dog place is a joke.

I totally agree people who like this "Thai" must have never had real Thai food. I thought it was the worst rendition of Thai I have ever had. I went to the Organ location maybe this location is better but I doubt it & will not try.

That's OK. The stuff sold as "Mexican" food everywhere here has no relation to real Mexican food, either, but it sure tastes good anyway.

Yuck yourself. I myself moved from the Seattle ares. I was a chef a the Muckkelshoot casino in Auburn. I was lucky to eat some of the best asian(s) food out there. This Thai place is probably the closest I found in recent years. Forget Pho Saigon on El Paseo.
Talking about the "buffet"...it appear that you are the kind of customer who believe that the more the better. As much as I enjoy the Empire buffet for the assortment of food, please don't tell me that it is very good. It is very fair food for the price for a very americanised "chinese" food.
