I Am Thai Cuisine is a restaurant the specializes in Thai dishes as its name suggests. It is located near Las Vegas airport and it is a rather large restaurant that can hold a lot of people. We chose to come to here for lunch after spending a day at Valley of Fire because the restaurant is very close to the Car Rental Center. In the same plaza, there is also a gas station to allow us to fuel up the car before returning the car.
By the time we got to I Am Thai Cuisine restaurant, it was already 3PM. It was a tiring day at Valley of Fire and were were very hungry. We ordered the dishes immediately as we sat down, and got a Beef Pad Thai and a Chicken Pad See Ew.
We actually waited for a while to get our food delivered to our table. The Beef Pad Thai came first. It was a rather large portion and smelled really good. However, we thought that the noodle was a bit overcooked and had became very soft and squishy. In addition, the sauce of Pad Thai was quite sweet and a bit too sweet. We had to add additional spiciness to it to soften the sweetness.
The Pad See Ew was good. It came with large sized noodle with lot of chunky green Chinese broccoli. We liked it a lot. The sauce was sweet, but not as sweet as the one for Pad Thai. The sweetness of the sauce had a good balance to it. The noodle was perfectly cooked and pan fried as well. It was soft but not squishy.
When we got our bill, we were offered mint candy, which is nice to freshen the taste.
Overall, I Am Thai Cuisine was not bad, but not very spectacular either. The reason we picked this place is because it is located close to the car rental place so that we could return the car right away. We would probably try a different restaurant next time.
