What people say, in short
Many people recommend Thipsamai, especially for its pad Thai: one commenter finds it less sweet than others, and one points to the shrimp-head oil version. One diner likes the omelette-style version and finds the setting scenic enough for a date, while a commenter says locals eat there too, not only tourists. There is a long line, which one diner says moves fairly quickly, and another describes the place as budget-friendly.
