I went to Thai Passion last week with a friend, who had veggie stuff while I had half/half. The food is quite good, with more interesting spices than most Thai restaurants. The Tom Ka soup was a bit too hot for me, but my preferences run toward milder food. We were in a bit of a hurry (had to run to catch The Thin Man at the Paramount, which is just around the corner), and so didn't try any of the house specialties, a number of which sounded very inviting. The service and atmosphere were also very good on the night we were there. Price was moderate.
