I repeated said that I was allergic to mushrooms to the waiter AND he still brought everything with mushrooms and would not let my husband eat and make me something different. Worst service. My husband said the food was okay. But at the end I didn't end up eating anything! And had to pay full price for our shared meal!
We arrived a little later, and the selection was picked over...but it was the best Thai food I've had in Boise. (I'm from Portland, where we have an abundance of great Thai restaurants.) This restaurant is our Boise friends' favorite family spot.
They are so caught-up in trying to make this place swanky that they forget to make decent food.

We came in for dinner tonight and were REALLY impressed! We were sat right away and didn't have to wait long on anything. Our server Ben was exceptional! He was by far the best server I have had in the Boise area (even though he was crazy busy). Don't let that guy go :) Our dinners were great and Ben's...

I've eaten at Mai Thai a couple of times now and I have always enjoyed the food. My pineapple rice came in a half pineapple shell, and the last bite was as tasty as the first. My partner ordered the baked jumbo shrimp and exclaimed that he had never seen such large shrimp, even in his home town of Portland....

Went back for lunch today with some friends and it was a far better experience. Billy the owner is hands on and a great guy and the staff were much better :) We had the buffet, it was pretty good but not amazing as my friend had said, still for 10 bucks it was a nice change. Now the duck...
