“Great flavours! Great atmosphere!! Great service!!!“

“So delicious! My coworkers and I have started to go here whenever we meet up for lunch. The prices are very good given the location, and the atmosphere and service are pleasant. Highly recommend!“

“I came here with an immense hunger. I got the tofu sandwich. I waited for about 8 minutes with intense jealousy as about 10 people were helped with their bowl and worried my sandwich was forgotten. Then it arrived. The sauces were great and I ate in a frenzy. The tofu was a little bland, but sandwich was good overall.“

“Had the bbq pork sandwich. Then the beef curry sandwich. Pretty good.
Please do not put huge chunks of jalapeño in the pork sandwich without warning.
Also , maybe cut the curried beef into slices, instead of 3” square chunks.
Both these sandwiches are difficult to eat .“

“Great dinner at Chaba Thai Kitchen near Convoy Street! Cute small shop with friendly and attentive staff. We enjoyed the khao soi with chicken, pad Thai with roasted duck, and shrimp roll. They gave a complimentary yummy dessert Everything tasted great and food came out quickly. Recommend!“

“I live in Spring Valley, so it’s quite a drive for me, but honestly, the distance is not an issue at all when the food is this good! 😍

I’m a huge fan of Som Tum, and they make it exactly the way I like it so flavorful, fresh, and absolutely delicious! The Thai ramen is also really good and definitely worth trying.

This has easily become one of my favorite places for Thai food. I highly recommend this restaurant! If you haven’t tried it yet, you definitely should. You won’t be disappointed! ❤️🇹🇭“

“My friend wanted to check this place out so we all met here for lunch on a weekday. It was busy but luckily we were seated right away.

We ordered the drunken noodles, the salmon fried rice, and the spring rolls. Everything was really good and full of flavors. Our favorite was the salmon fried rice. Liked it more than I anticipated.“

“Such a nice restaurant to visit. This is our 1st and it won't be our last because we really enjoyed the service and the intentiveness of our waiter which also spoke thai with my wife. The food was amazing that's why we will be coming back.“

“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.“

“I haven’t been there but it’s looks pretty good the food 🍱.“

“It's a good restaurant in San Diego to have Thai food!“

“Excellent Thai Cusine. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.“

“We love coming here since it is a very comfortable, cozy, friendly place with yummy curries and good specials. Good location, enough easy parking. Nothing fancy, simple decore, but love the food options and fast service. Totally recommend!“

“This place is amazing. I dream about the khao soi at night. I haven’t had anything from Aroyd that I wouldn’t recommend. The portions are big and the flavors are amazing. Service is top tier. Thrilled we discovered this place! Lots of vegetarian options between the tofu and mock duck.“

“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“

“We've eaten here about once a month for about five months. The food is excellent. Everything we've had has been excellent and so fresh. There is a lot of positive energy in the restaurant and every member of the waitstaff has been very efficient. I especially recommend the waitress T.K. She is very personable, while also being very efficient. She knows the food thoroughly and can give very good recommendations. Supannee is now our go to Thai restaurant. We've taken several people with us and they have all been very impressed. Go, eat, enjoy.“

“Great food specially their pad thai. Servers are nice and very welcoming. Will definitely come back over and over again. I’ve found one of the BEST Thai Restaurant in San Diego“

“Delicious and healthy food. Friendly staff.“

“Pari is great and his food is AMAZING!!“

“Amazing food! The Rockfish was the most amazing dish I have had since moving to SD.“

“Great experience! Great attitude! Great food! Mom and pops Thai food in Sierra Mesa you will never miss out this place is amazing absolutely 🔥🔥🔥!! Try the papaya salad🤤🤤🤤 I absolutely recommend this place , when it comes to homemade Thai food!💯🔥👌😎“

“it was perfect. and I was visiting from Illinois. so good experience.“

“The food is always very fresh and delicious. They are very mindful about how spicy you would like. I don’t tolerate a lot of spice and they make sure they accommodate. And the customer service is exceptional.“

“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.“

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

“My husband and I love this place !! We live in University city and AAHARN restaurant is the best Thai restaurant in University city. We have tried so many dishes such as Lamb massaman, Neu Nam Tok, Chicken biryani. We love them all! Our server was very nice and kind. I highly recommend this restaurant. ♥️♥️♥️“

“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!"“

“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!!!!“

“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 :)“

“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.“

“Great cafe late and Mille crêpe cake!!!!!!“

“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.“

“Truly a hidden gem! Good prices for what you get and the food tastes fantastic!
I love coming here and sitting down to eat. There’s so many cool things they decorated their place with! Since it’s in an office area you might have some issues with parking when it’s busy but they do offer pick up so you can avoid that when needed.“

“The food was amazing. We had Drunken Noodle, Pad See-Ew, and Cashew Chicken and were very happy with all of them. The service was a little slow but we didn’t care because we weren’t in a rush. The staff was friendly and was able to get us what we needed. The restaurant is clean and the seats are comfortable. I would highly recommend getting there a little before noon to avoid the lunch crowd rush.“

“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.“

“The service is friendly. Really nice atmosphere. Try their Mai Tai and yellow curry with tofu.“

“I luv this place! Delicious, affordable and perfectly portioned sizes! Also, I want to share that in a half-asleep stupor, I completely forgot to mention in the instructions to make my Pad Thai vegan and ended up receiving it with eggs. To my surprise, they kindly offered to make me a vegan one at no charge! Also, when I went to return the original one, the vegan one was already ready!—So fast!
They didn’t have to do all that and they did! I’m so grateful for this place! Highly recommend!“

“This new restaurant has great food! It’s a nice addition to our PB restaurant lineup! The interior plant wall is hydroponic. Excess water feeds the outdoor Koi pond, the fish clean the water, then it recirculates back to the plants. We will return😎“

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

“Easily one of the top two Thai joints in San Diego county. Great flavors, huge portions. Perfect.“

“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.“

“อาหารอร่อยบริการรวดเร็วทันใจมากคะ“

“Amazing place to get fresh and healthy Thai food! I’ve gotten both dine in and takeout from this location for years! Toom is an amazing person, she always makes us feel welcome (my dad comes almost weekly with our beloved family dog, Bacon).

Every item here is very delicious! Portions are fair, though the lunch special is on the smaller size because it is a lunch special. Keep that in mind. Their appetizers are very large!

I got the spring rolls two days ago. They were ordered to go, and usually spring rolls go bad in a few hours, but the spring rolls pictures stayed good for 2 whole days! I ate them 48 hours later and they barely tasted a few minutes old. Delicious peanut sauce and a Thai chili sauce!

Lastly, I highly recommend their Spices Curry Noodles. Very unique and I do think this one is best eaten in the restaurant, because it’s basically rice noodles with veggies in spicy curry, but the flavors are so unique and hit every time! The thick noodles pick up the curry sauce and omg it’s just so good!!!!

Come here for any meal and if Toom is your server you’ll be in great hands, she’s the best!!!!! Always goes above and BEYOND, smiling and friendly always. Just a sweet person!“
