I was pleasantly surprised by my experience. Small thai place in a dead strip mall. Ive seen it there for a few years just have never gone in. Recently my go-to thai place went down hill so I tried something new. Sadly there are a lot of crappy thai places in Tempe. I am no means a thai food expert but I do eat a lot of it. First off, I hate Thai Basil, whoever think that is good thai food has no taste buds. \n\nThe smell is still there, it reminded me of vietnamese cooking not a sewer so much. I got a lunch to go order of Yellow Curry / Chicken Hot (my stand bys), I had them add bell peppers and Pad Thai / Chicken Hot. The hot level was perfect, nice and spicy to get your nose running but not too hot where you cant enjoy it. The prices were great, $14 for both meals. The portions were very generous. My only qualm was that there were only two pieces of green onion in my pad thai? WTH?! Thankfully I had some at home so I could doctor it up. Next time I will ask for extra green onion. The flavors and spices were perfect. The lady who took my payment seemed to have troubles with the register, but whatever. \n\nThe place was empty when I was there, hopefully it stays alive since I will now be a regular there. \n\nI will certainly go back there.
