"My wife and I have already been to Panang 5, so we decided to try this location on a recent Friday night. The location resembles the other one in that it is part of a strip mall with other restaurants. The interior is better lit than Panang 5, but the dining room felt like it was smaller. As usual in many restaurants these days, there were at least 3 TVs on the walls.
I decided to try the panang curry since it is the restaurant's namesake. They made it well - not as thick as panang curry that I have had at other Thai restaurants but just as delicious. The only thing that was wrong with it was that it was nice not spicy enough for me. The server asked me to choose a spice level from 1 to 5, where 5 is the hottest. I chose 3 to be on the safe side. Now I wish I had chosen 4 or 5.
My wife got the crispy catfish and loved every bite of it. However, it was such a large serving that she took some of it home.
We both had plenty of rice to take home at the end of our meal.
This is now on our list of the best Thai restaurants in OKC, along with Charm and Bistro 38."
