"Always Thai is a definite hole in the wall. I found it searching for cheap vegan food--they've got so many tofu dishes as most Thai places do.My partner and I popped on on Friday night. The restaurant has tinted windows so it looked like and we thought it was closed but we tried the door and we're grateful to find it open.There was nobody else inside which was surprising but again, we decided to give it a try because lots of the reviews speak well of Always Thai and COVID has done a number on lots of places.After our visit, I'm here to tell you to consider supporting Always Thai the next time you're craving curry or delicious Asian food!The lightly spiced Tofu Satay with its savory peanut sauce was absolutely fantastic, and the Fried Tofu came with a sweet and sour dipping sauce and was like nothing we've ever had before.For entrees, my partner got the Cashew Dish with Tofu. It came with a side of rice and had a wonderful rich and sort of smokey flavor.I got the Red Curry with Tofu. Apart from the perfectly spicy red curry sauce, the eggplant was my favorite part of the dish. The curry didn't melt my face off but it was spicy enough to let you know you were eating some really good food.COVID and inflation caused their menu prices to go up a decent bit from what's on their site and some of the pictures others posted years ago, but they are still very fair.They're also BYOB and there's a liquor store two doors over which came in clutch. Definitely check Always Thai out!"
