I was told this place is authentic Thai spice. Now called Thai Bistro(originally Tuktan Thai Food) Based off of my partner's expression it was very much enjoyed. Order Tom yum soup, beef salad, fried whole fish. The soup was very good we both enjoyed how flavorful it was. Beef salad was a perfect spice level(requested extra hot) fried whole fish with pineapple bell pepper and sweet sauce was tasty. I was craving fish and they did not disappoint. 2 Thai ice teas oh! So delicious ???

Nice n' cozy, very limited seating. They're changing the name to 'Thai Bistro', new owners but it's still the same menu and everything.

Very clean, bright, inviting atmosphere. Good food that's authentic and similar to what I've eaten in Thailand. The staff was nice and the service was quick.

Best Thai food I have ever tried. Would always go back. It’s just we live too far, and they don’t open on weekends. Otherwise would go more often. Very spicy but love it so much. I can only take level 0.5 lol

Place does not disappoint. Went there on a mission to get my face on the wall. I did…and I was wrecked for about 48 hours following. This place will not disappoint. Food is stellar. Excited to try it at a lower spice level so I can taste my food.

The food is delicious and mommy is the nicest! She is so sweet! Believe her when she says it's spicy.

Not typically a big Thai food lover, but gosh this was good. For the price, me and my party all got a large and tasty meal. Food was amazing, and Mommy (the woman who served us) is a hoot. Such a fun place to get food, felt homey and lax. Would totally suggest going there!!! And listen to Mommy when it comes to spice levels! If she hadn’t talked my friend down to a level 2 spice, I don’t think he could’ve eaten it!
Another lovingly small, family owned buisness to adore!! Honestly this is the best Thai place you can ask for for dining in and to go. Mommy is gonna be your fave auntie in the neighborhood and in life. Not once she forgets a face, or an order. Best of all is her personailty that really uplifts and makes me want to come back everytime.This is my second time ordering to go and she somehow both times it was ready in MINUTES. Honestly I would rather come to dine in bc it feels so homey, and isn't that the best kind of dining?

The food was soooo good. Very spicy for me and I'm a real mexican. Level 1 is more than enough. Mommy was awesome. Her big personality can be a little bit too much for some. But if you are not a fragil baby you will love her. She is very authentic. I'm definitely coming back.

This place is a hidden treasure in Chula Vista San Diego!There is a parking lot outside of the restaurant! It's a cute family style restaurant! We really enjoyed the food and the service!The first time we went with our friends, the owner Mammy was so friendly and so funny we had so much fun at this place, she loves to talk and get to know people, she treats everyone like family! She figured that my husband and I are newlyweds and she promised us that she will give us a surprise we visit again next time. We went back the next day and she brought us an amazing rice paper dish wrapped with chicken noodles inside and some peanut sauce on top!! It was delicious!!Their spicy level is 1-10, we only had 0.5 and we were sweating, it was really spicy for us but really good thoWe spent about $20 for each person, I highly recommend their curry! It is very flavorful and creamy, the shrimp I had in the curry was sweet and big! Really good seafood! The sticky rice with mango was so yummy, the mango just tasted different than the one we can get in Walmart but the size wasn't too big and we paid $9 for it, it was a little pricey than other Thai food restaurants I had been to before but we love the food and the good friendship we have developed with Mammy! We will come back again!

The best service and quality ingredients you will see ANYWHERE. The lady says they import everything from Thailand and I believe it! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would! Everything is good, but the spice is authentic so a 7 hotness level anywhere else would be a 1 or 2 here.
