I went with my friend and colleague, Gilberto, to Osha for lunch. I love Thai food, and this was not a disappointment. Gilberto and I were heading to lunch to catch up, and he suggested this place. He’d been there several times and thought I’d enjoy it.

The place was popular and we had about a 15 minute wait. The decor and ambiance was nice. It was obviously not your typical thai hole-in-the-wall.

Gilberto got Volcanic Beef, a rather elaborate looking spicy beef dish. Very impressive. He said it was very tasty, and that he’d gotten it before.

I had my usual bellweather when I go to a new Thai palce: Pad Thai. If a place can’t make a reasoable Pad Thai, I usually won’t go back. They did a great job.

All in all, a great lunch experience. A bit of a wait, but a busy restaurant is a good sign, especially when it’s not a cheap place. I’ll be back.
