Siam Thai. St Andrew Street, 353 (01) 6773363, http://homepage.eircom.net/~siames/Andrew-St.htm
This was my first visit to Siam Thai. They have 3 branches currently in Dublin, the other two are in Malahide, and Ballsbridge.
They offer an early bird menu which offers a slightly cheaper version of some of the a la carte dishes. It offers ok value if you have 2 or more courses. Since we were both hungry, we went for early bird options. 2 mixed starter platter consisting of ribs, spring roll, satay chicken, We found the starters slightly poor. Run of the mill dishes you'd expect from your local takeaway.
The mains were slightly better. I had beef penang curry. Nice but not as good as my benchmak dish of Lamb Massaman from Diep Noddle. Bit stingy on the curry sauce... Guest A's' chicken and oyster sauce was unremarkable. We skipped desert, always a good idea in Dublin Asian restuarants.
Other details.. Draft beer is available, a list of wine, full bottles, half bottles is avalable. Full bottles from €18. Staff good. Nothing extrodinary here. Average cooking at the usual Dublin overinflated prices. Eatly bird slightly improves this. Not the worst but we won't be hurrying back.
6/10.
