Not sure what is going on here but we left this time pretty disappointed. Last time we were there, food was ok but not as good as in the past. Thought I would give it another chance since we have been eating from here for years. I knew as soon as my "go to" dish hit the table that it looked different. Nothing like it has tasted before-dry and way spicer than before. Wait staff was kind enough to let me order something else (after I was told that I should expect it to be a little spicy--I'm aware--I've been eating the same thing for a while). Second dish was basic pad thai because I figured it was an americanized version anyway and you couldn't screw that up. It was very boring and dry and the broccoli was way undercooked. The waitperson did tell me there was a new chef in the back. Maybe that's it---I hope they figure it out soon. The fried jalapeƱos were delish and the spring roll was good as well. I would hate for Persuasian to lose its edge in this market on this side of town. Based on other conversations I've had over the past couple of days, our experience is not unique. Hope they are not circling the drain! Here's to hoping yours is better.
