I haven't found my "go to "Thai place in Tempe yet but this one is pretty close I think. Another visit could possibly determine that. I stopped in last week for a quick lunch with a co-worker for my first visit. We arrived around 12:30 pm and it was a nice lunch crowd but still plenty of seating. Within the first maybe 2 minutes of sitting down the server came over to ask us if we were ready to order. I could tell they were used to having regular customers because she gave us no time to look over the menu. No big deal!
She came back a few minutes later, this time we were ready. I ordered the Pan Thai with Chicken and Shrimp with a number 2 spice level. She ordered a vegetarian dish (I can't remember the name). Within a few minutes our soup came out pipin' hot. Great! I love really hot soup! Before we finished out sop, our entrees came out.
Immediately upon looking at my food I noticed a huge shrimp sitting directly on the top of the dish. I thought great! They're not cutting corners there. I quickly skimmed though my dish to locate the rest of the shrimp and chicken and was disappointed to find only ONE shrimp. That one, huge, lonely shrimp sitting on top of my noodles - That's it! No other shrimp anywhere. There were about 3 pieces of finely sliced chicken, lots of fried egg and the noodles. The flavors of everything were super good. My spice level was 2 and that was perfect. Anything higher I wouldn't be able to handle.
As mentioned, I was highly disappointed with the portion of chicken and shrimp in my lunch, however, maybe it wouldn't be the same situation if I were ordering dinner. I do plan to try them out again soon for lunch and will update my review.
