Restaurant Review (Thai Siam Takeout, Colleen Va)

A coworker and I headed out to Lynchburg, VA for a work meeting on Friday.  We were heading back to Richmond right about lunch time and my co-worker mentioned he had heard great things about a Thai place that is on the way back to Richmond.  I of course was a bit shocked that a fantastic Thai place would be off a country road in VA.  However, Trip Advisor supported the opinions that this place will be great (just hope they are open and will serve you).  We drove up and this is what we saw...

I have to say I was a little nervous but actually pretty excited to find out if this place was as good as everyone had talked about.  We walked in and there were two other tables with people and the place smelled great.  This place is small so I understand why they have take out in the name.  One table in the restaurant had groceries from the mornings purchases.  Let's just say they don't focus on the decor in the restaurant.

I went with Thai dumplings and Basil Stir Fry with Chicken.  My co worker went with vegetable fried rice and I believe Drunken noodles with tofu.  When ordering our level of heat my co worker attempted to order Thai hot and was informed that that probably wasn't the smartest decision as Thai hot here is not like other restaurants.  He let them do hot and they were going to provide a side of hot salsa.  I decided to go with medium on mine based on that conversation.  Let's just say we were both happy with our choices.  My medium chicken dish had quite the kick.

The owner was a 72 year old woman and her husband and there was another woman there serving tables.  It sounded like she was ready to retire so if you head to Lynchburg you may want to get there before they decide to give it up!  Well that of course is after the month they will be closed as they will be heading to Thailand.

It was exciting to find this great little gem on a country road in Virginia!  It made the 4 hours in the car all the more worth it!
