Well, /I/ sure think you just hit them on an off night.  Give their Basil
Chicken a try, and order it Thai Hot.  That's a favorite snack when I'm on my
way home from evening meetings and can get there before 9:30, when they close.

BTW, I do think that the pad Thai that Bangkok West served was the best in the
world -- but I think Siam is a shade better for many/most other dishes.
