I have come to the conclusion that University Drive in Tempe Arizona needs to be recognized for its great dining options. I have always stopped in once in a while to a few places, but I never really put it into the context of great food on one street. So here I go. I’ll eat my way through University Drive! First up, Thai Elephant near Hardy and University in Tempe. YUM! I am a fan of Thai food (you’ll see that in the coming weeks) and I was expecting a little hole-in-the-wall place with a few items on the menu. I was happy to find a array of options, some that I have not seen before. I had a beef noodle dish with an amazing peanut sauce. There was so much food that I was very happy to eat the left overs the next day for lunch! I don’t do spicy, but my partner does. He got the medium. Beware! The medium was still really spicy – you could see the chili pepper all over his dish. Those that love their food to be on fire, then go for it! The prices are very reasonable and the space is large and pleasant with friendly staff to boot! If you are looking for a great Thai food restaurant in Arizona with reasonable prices, then check out Thai Elephant. http://www.letterse7en.com/TE/tempe.html
