We went to Arches Thai around noon. When we got there, we weren't sure where the parking was at for the restaurant. Thus we did street parking across the road and walked over. The menu was pasted on the wall for takeout customers. However, the menu was a bit high up on the wall, thus it was a bit difficult to read.
We were quite hungry after did all the hiking at Canyonlands National Park. Thus we ordered Pad Thai, Pad Se Ew, Thai Salad, and Spring Roll. Since the restaurant was under staffed, we were told that we might have to wait for 20 minutes.
We sat outside while waiting for our food to be ready. While we were waiting, we saw many additional customers entering the restaurant. It appeared that the restaurant was quite popular and even offer many vegetarian options.
After about 25 minutes, our food was finally ready. We really like the Pad Se Ew, the sauce was simply great with sweetness and the noodle was soft. In contract, the Pad Thai was not as good as what we were expecting. The Pad Thai sauce was a little on the sour side. The Pad Thai noodle was a bit clumped together, although it might due to the hot weather. The Spring Roll tasted as expected and crunchy. The Thai Salad came with tofu in there and peanut butter sauce. We didn't add much peanut butter sauce though, since the salad was fresh enough for good taste.
Overall, Arches Thai was a good Thai fine dining restaurant and a great option for food after a long hiking day.
