Love Maile and Maile's Thai Bistro. This is our go to place for Thai food in Honolulu. We were craving Maile's Thai but knew the restaurant would be very busy on this night so we opted for takeout. My Wife arrived to pick up the order and found Maile sitting with Roy Yamaguchi the founder of the successful Roy's chain of restaurants around the world. Maile took time to introduce my Wife to Roy and chat while the food was being prepared. Our go to dishes at Maile's are always the Cold Tofu which my Wife and Daughter absolutely love. Think it is the sauce that makes this dish one of their favorites. I like the Spring Rolls wrapped in lettuce with hot sauce. The Green Papaya Salad is refreshing and I love the flavor and texture when you wrap the Papaya in cabbage leaves. I like this dish a little spicy. We always seem to order Pad Thai with Chicken. Definitely a family favorite. Tried the Thai Garlic Shrimp on this visit. Didn't really get a lot of garlic taste though. My Wife loves the Ong Choi and so do I. We usually order this with beef but opted to go just with the veggies this time. Delicious. Maile sometimes put things on her menu that surprise you. Take French Fries for example. We usually get the Fries when we dine in because they are so good. Another surprise is her Carrot Cake. We are not big Carrot Cake eaters but always order it at Maile's because it is so good.
