This renovated townhouse in the French Concession district provides an elegant, dimly lit backdrop for a Thai dinner. The interior is marked by teak doors, Asian hardwood floors, and a collection of Buddhist artifacts. Starters include spring rolls and rice paper crab vegetables with peanut dipping sauce. There is no shortage of pad thai varieties, but patrons can also opt for a more meaty entrée such as the red curry chicken or beef with pineapple. Outdoor seating is available.
