Tai San Chef
4.9
This casual Chinese and Thai eatery recently added six hibachi tables and a sushi menu. Chinese standards include kung pao chicken, Mongolian beef, sweet and sour shrimp and chop suey. Thai offerings include basil fried rice, pad Thai and panang (sweet) curry. The popular lunch special (offered 11:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.) includes an egg roll, chicken fried rice, fortune cookie and an entree for less than most fast-food joints; dinner combo specials are just a few bucks more. The cheerful dining room lively green walls and plenty of warm wood accents.
