Flavours were on point… my favorite dish here was the whole fried fish … very technical dish and balance of sweet sour flavours were some of the best I’ve had. Drunken noodles are also good. Pad Thai was a little dissapointing as noodles became mushy overcooked.

This is a nice and calm place that serves Thai food. The staff are super cool and nice, food was also tasty and okay although a bit greasy. Since this was my first time experiencing Thai cuisine, I am not sure if the amount of oil was routine or not.

It wasn’t good at all. The calamari fries had an oily smell, and the pad see ew lacked flavor.

Dish is very little. Hard to get full but a rather high price.

This is not Thai food. The entire experience was a let down. We had tried to order drunken noodles with chicken and shrimp and was told that they would not do any combination outside of their “menu”. How that’s outside of their menu, I have no idea. We ordered drunken noodles, silver noodles, and pad Thai. All of the food was either over cooked, over oiled, and had an off taste. This experience amongst atmosphere, choices, price, and overall food taste was a complete let down.

Great thai food, with some unique offerings not found in typical american-thai restaurants, like Khao Soi and crispy pork belly.
Watch out for their spice levels when asked, I got a 5/10 thinking it would be mild but it was HOT.

Absolutely the best Thai food I’ve ever had! We only ordered the drunken noodles to go, so I’ll definitely return later to get the full experience! Amazing flavors we will be back!

This is hands down the best Thai restaurant I’ve been to, especially in the San Diego area. I absolutely love their Pineapple Fried Rice – it’s incredibly fragrant, flavorful, and has a slight tingly spice that’s just perfect. The service is also great. Highly recommend!

Sweet little place. Love the curries here even though they are on the more expensive side. The drunken noodles were DELICIOUS but the Pad Thai was not very good, wouldn’t recommend.

The smell is much better than the flavor. We ordered multiple things and was let down on multiple levels. Ambiance was even lacking luster. The employees were fair. Food not good at all. Won't return.

I agree with Mr Hernandez in saying that this isn't real Thai food. We always eat at Eddie V's & decided to try this Thai place last night. The aroma pulled us inside. We ordered the calamari and drunken noodles. I'd wanted Pad Thai with a chicken and shrimp combination but the waitress said they wouldn't do it with chicken and shrimp as my request. Grade F for failing to accommodate the customers palate while trying to force feed your self made rule to govern my palate. At this early point I'd already made up my mind to eat elsewhere which was the incredible Sushi ? location right down the street (Shiku). I wanted to at least try food from this supposed Thai restaurant and got it to go. We asked for an extra plum sauce and was told they couldn't give extra. Really? Was it because of my tan? Moving forward, the calamari was greasy and very rubbery. The flavor was off and seemed as if it was cooked in oil that chitterlings were cooked in. My friends from Georgia cook lots of chitterlings at their Asian restaurant and we sample what they like for us to try which is why I'm familiar with that hideous flavor. The drunken noodles were ordered at a number 4 spice level and that was pretty much the dominant flavor - hot pepper. The food is a couple of notches less than what you would find in a mall food court. The tastiest thing was the plum sauce which was fair. All in all, I'm happy we tried so we can know what the food tastes like and won't be fooled again when going into Eddie Vs or walking down the street in La Jolla again. A great and delicious spot is Shiku sushi which has a wide variety, excellent service and everything is flavorful. Your requests are accomodated. Going back for their unagi eel, spider roll, Lobster rolls today. The Thai experience was a complete fraud. F for failure but thank God for Shiku ?
