“Here we are again having another fabulous meal prepared for us. But's this time There was a party of maybe 6 women and they prefer to have the other entrance open so my wife froze her butt off for the whole meal it seems like it was below 0 degrees but all in all we still had a great meal. Maybe I should have said something to our waitress but I didn't want to upset the girls.“

The Satay chicken was tender and flavorful....Pad Woon Sen was fresh and light with crispy vegetables. Cream cheese wontons were great and served as dessert. The portions were generous with plenty left over for a second meal. Pretty sure Little Thai Kitchen is now my favorite Thai food spot!😊“

The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were generous. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared—and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.

My favorite are Thai Thai, Drunken Noodles and Pineapple Fried Rice, and all 3 were incredible! 🤤 Every bite was packed with flavor. Today I came for the lunch special and it's literally a 3 course meal with the Tom Kha being the cherry on top!!

If you love Thai food, you HAVE to try So Good Thai! I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“very friendly waitresses, fast delivery and great food 👌 definitely will be back. only negative but with all the places around the area is parking. but other than that, great place“

“ALWAYS ALWAYS FOREVER GOOD!“

“The pineapple fried rice was perfectly balanced with a hint of sweetness and spice, the red curry was rich and flavorful with just the right amount of heat, and the shrimp Tom Yum soup was comforting and packed with fresh ingredients. Everything was as delicious and very authentic. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Delicious and healthy food. Friendly staff.“

“Great party food for quick pickup. Terrific menu variety and flavors. Highly recommend! A+“

“Take out only which I found to be an interesting concept but it works for them. Food was really good. We tried a bunch of different things and I don’t think they really missed on any of it. Their mild still had a little spice to it which was unexpected for the kids so we had to reorder a couple things with no spice which the kids enjoyed.

Parking was really limited and outside of a few spots in front I would imagine you would have to find street parking when it’s busy.

The one knock is that there was very little shrimp in Their shrimp dish which disappointed my seafood loving wife.“

“Wow! I’ve been ignoring this Thai spot for awhile now but got their takeout and I’m impressed. Fresh, authentic, quality. Their chicken satay is nice and tender, great spice levels on Pad Thai and Panang Curry, and fantastic thai iced tea and sticky mango rice. Their dips/sauces are all homemade and tasty! Lunch specials also a great deal, nice full size service. Service is on point as well (helped me carry the drinks to my car!) Thanks for a fantastic meal, IB Thai! Also nice to see they support locals.“

“Everything so good 😛clean friendly“

“i tried ping yang on my lunch break today. it’s in a cute and chill market space, seems great for an office lunch out or families. the thai family who run it are really sweet and they were happy to help me pick something to try. ive had a lot of great thai food before, and this place is amazing! i ordered their honey pork rice and LOVE it- it reminds me of other thai bbq pork dishes ive had but the flavor here is beautifully complex with a really perfect hint of black pepper. i also had the chicken teriyaki gyoza, and it is extra crunchy and fantastic. i’ll definitely be back to try their pork belly dish, it looks super good!“

“Truly wonderful Thai food, would eat here often if we were local!“

“Everything at so saap is good! Papaya salad, laap was awesome! I visited twice in a week as I live in another state. I will be back one day.“

“If you're looking for the best Thai dining experience in town, look no further than Thai Time North Park ! The moment you step in, you're greeted by an inviting atmosphere and trendy decor. The service is impeccable; the staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready with a smile. Our servers went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The food is nothing short of spectacular. We started with the fresh spring rolls, which were bursting with flavor. The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced with the right amount of sweetness and spice, the Larb was rich and aromatic and the signature chef Poke one of a kind. What really sets Thai Time apart are the little extras. We were treated to a complimentary Cucumber Gimlet drink. In short, Thai Time offers the perfect combination of delectable food, outstanding service, and a charming ambiance. It's a must-visit for anyone craving an authentic Thai dining experience. We would easily give Thai Time a 5-star rating for its exceptional dining experience. Do yourself a favor and visit – you won’t be disappointed!"“

“Nice spot with eclectic decor, really nice people and very flavorful food. I’ll be back!“

“I went there to eat with a coworker for lunch earlier today. It was my very first time having been there. I was recommended by a couple of my friends. The restaurant was pretty spacious and the staff were very friendly. I ordered the laab seen (ລາບຊີ້ນ) a Lao minced beef salad and the tom khueng nai (ຕົ້ມເຄື່ອງໃນ) a Lao beef innards soup with some sticky rice. Lunch was delicious. I will definitely be going back there again. I will be bringing my mom. She was actually the person that had brought up this place to me before as well. See you again in the near future.“

“Favorite restaurant in the world! Such amazing, happy service. Incredible flavorful vegan food. The bubble teas are excellent to enjoy while eating. Perfect for a romantic experience. They sang happy birthday! For being top quality, it's also amazingly affordable. Enjoy!!!!“

“The food is just perfect,good portions“

“The food is fantastic and the atmosphere lovely. it's been a family favorite for over 30 years. (since they opened)“

“By far the Best Thai food in San Diego !! don't miss out.“

“Delicious food, great service and amazing value. This unassuming spot just a bit outside of the busy gaslamp district was a great find. 2 entrees and an appetizer was somehow under $40 - we had drunken noodles, Thai basil chicken and Spring rolls.“

“Outstanding Thai food and friendly people. Such a great experience i came twice in three days!“

“Conveniently located for those of us working in Downtown San Diego, Thotsakan is a great place to grab a tasty lunch affordably and in time to get back to work by the end of one's lunch break. Their pumpkin curry, drunken noodles, and choo chee salmon lunch specials are especially good :)“

“The food is great! But the girl at the counter needs lessons in customer service and also an attitude adjustment. This is the only reason that deters me from going there more often.“

“Really delicious and reasonably priced food. Love the fusion style. The Tokyo fries are one of my absolute fav things on the menu. As well as the fried kale and Banh mi 🤤 Decent beer, wine, teas, and specialty drinks.“

“I just haven't ever had a bad meal here. I look forward to going back and enjoying a meal with a bestie. Finish it off with mango sticky rice and sleep like a baby 😁😉“

“Probably the most affordable stall in the food court, for the amount of fried rice you get it's congruent to the price point, unlike other places that are pretty pricey but smaller portions than expected. The thai milk tea is pretty frickin pricey.

Crab rangoon roll is exactly what it is, I was impressed with how it stayed crispy throughout its length. Its pretty monoflavored though, so the sweet and sour sauce helped me finish it. Recommend splitting it with two people.

Fried rice was surprisingly delicious and ridiculously huge. It was like the second cheapest option on the menu and I'm pretty sure there was curry powder. You can adjust the spice level and I liked that it came with fresh cucumber garnish.

If I ever find myself back in Liberty Station and im starving, this would be my go to, that rice lasted me the whole day.“

“delicious food and friendly service! I love the soup!“

“Was in the San Diego area craving some drunken noodles (Pad Kee Mao or Mow) and asked Google to help me find one close.

The ordering process went smoothly as I looked at the website and called in my order.

Picking up was ok. It is a little house that has been converted into this restaurant and I walked right past it. When you go, look for the little yellow house that is set back a little bit from the street.

As I was paying for my meal, I asked if there were any Yelp discounts. He said no discounts and it is a 3% fee to use your credit card.

The Panang Curry was amazing. Lots of flavor. Perfectly cooked rice and they go together so well. Great consistency, plenty of carrots with come chicken (that was my chosen protein) and other veggies. I was surprised that when I opened the curry, it was still piping hot. And they wrapped the container in plastic wrap in addition to the cover being on it. Love when restaurants do that as it decreases the chance of spills.

The drunken noodles was what I was craving to begin with and I found out lacking. Not much flavor and to be honest, I was hoping to have had some Thai Basil in it. To be fair, it didn't mention that on their menu. It just adds so much flavor and without it, it is too bland for me. I'm also accustomed to much more saucy noodles and these are very dry. When I have leftovers, I will add some Huy Fong Sambal Oelek Chili Paste.

Over all, I would go again. However, I'll stick with the curry next time.“
