Well in the interest of full disclosure, I will share that I know the owners very well.  But I will say I know this business after 22 years as well if not better so this is a straight up posting.\n\nSoi 4 has got it right.  What impresses me more is to see the level of commitment to constantly improve; to offer their guests a better experience every time.  The progress from opening to now is admirable.  The team has gelled an operates like a tight family.  The menu is evolving as Scottsdale patrons provide feedback on home-runs and suggested tweaks.  The beverage program is dynamic and fully considers the food.  The food is dialed in extremely well.  It is authentic Thai with an appropriate nod to North American palates.  It is tough to do without losing the complex flavors of Thai cuisine.  Soi 4 has done it.\n\nYou can't experience Soi 4 Bangkok Eatery in Bangkok yet you can experience Thailand at Soi 4.  There is something very unique here.  It has captured the essence of what I enjoy most about Thai food and the culture.  Yet it delivers it in a way that defines itself separately.  Hence the 5th star.  \n\nThe place is cool, modern with numerous design elements that seem to keep it always-new.  Credit to the architect and family for capturing the essence of Thai culture and their own hip vibe.  This is a place where you can be comfortable is warm weather attire or in your urban duds for a night on the town.  The diversity of clientele is very interesting.  And I believe the undeniable quality is the common thread here.\n\nBe sure to reach out to the owners when dining there.  They'll quickly welcome you into the Soi 4 family.  You and perhaps more importantly, your belly will be very glad you did.
