New thai/sushi spot coming to former Simon's space

Again Pattaya Thai in Baymeadows is probably the best, most authentic, and reasonably priced.

I havent been to Basil Thai yet, but I am hearing good things about it. Also heard they have an ala carte menu.

I agree with Bilbo and Blizz01. Why can't someone open a Late night Taco take out like all over New York state?..Why does the Five Points area pull in the sidewalks at 9 PM?? Why are people so scared of the night life business? What ALL civilized Urban folks want is Easy Access Decent late night food with somewhat curb service. While visiting Buffalo and experiencing the incredible Band called "Dr Didge"...I found a late night Taco take out that had been in business for years..Huge tacos for cheap...and people kept coming back...They buzzed you in the first door after presumably checking your Sobriety..must have had a dozen varieties.You could see in back and see a clean environment. (New York state is serious)  GOD I HATE SYSCO!!

Kickbacks is open until 3am or something, but granted, it's not exactly Five Points, but close enough.  Steamworks right on Lomax in Five Points is open late, too.

I went to Basil Thai for lunch today. It was awesome. Very reasonably priced and great service. I will definately be going back!
