Restaurant Review – ZAB Thai
September 1, 2008 – 7:54 pm
ZAB Thai is a great little Thai place just off Highway 99. It’s located in a strip mall, and doesn’t look like much from outside, but the moment you step inside you are greeted by a soothing water wall, authentic decor, and a friendly staff. The food is very flavorful, the menu varied, and you can pick your level of spice from mild to extra hot. I usually get the “hot” level of spice – right in the middle. It has a kick, but the spiciness doesn’t overpower the other flavors in the dish. Lunch specials are a great deal, and the dinner entrées are big enough to share. For tonight’s visit I had the “Sea Grilled” plate, which was a plate of grilled scallops, shrimp, mussels, and squid served with a spicy garlic lime dipping sauce and some grilled veggies. The plate seemed a bit sparse for the price, but it was very artfully arranged, and the seafood was well cooked. Shaun got the chicken pad thai, which was excellent. The balance of flavors was perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant.
