Krua Thai Phoenix

An interesting dining experience. When I first walked in, I wasn't sure what to expect. All in all, it was a positive experience, and I will probably return. Upon entering, you order at the counter, and then the food is delivered to your table. You fill your water glass out of an Igloo cooler, which gives off a strange, picnic-like vibe. The service was as good as can be expected, given that there is limited interaction. The prices seem fair. The lunch specials run about $11- $14 and include an above average, unique tofu soup. The vegetable and spice combination of the soup did wonders for a sore throat. I ordered the pork yellow curry with a medium spice. The spice level was perfect and tasted like a true medium. The yellow curry was different than any I have had before. It didn't have as yellowish of a color as most I have had previously. This could mean it has less turmeric than normal, but it could be due to regional differences in Thai cuisine. The curry wasn't sweet enough for me, but they were kind enough to give me a side of coconut milk, which sweetened it up. The food is served with plastic utensils (and I suppose chop sticks upon request). I can assume the plastic wear is a result of post- Covid difficulties. They seem to have a lot of regular customers, which means they are doing something right. Like I said, I will probably return, but I will try either the Panang curry or the drunken noodles.

I had the stir fry veggie lunch special and my partner had the red curry lunch special. They came with the most amazing tofu soup and veggie spring roll. What made the spring roll so amazing was the sweet and sour sauce. We were taken by surprise how good the sauce was and had to stop mid-conversation to talk about it. The Thai tea was amazing. Overall the food here was amazing and we will definitely add it to our list of go-to Thai places!!!
