Amazing Thai place right in downtown Laguna. One of my favorite restaurants down here. Have done take-out for parties and it’s great. My favorite is pineapple fried rice.

We previously *loved* Thai Bros and the pineapple fried rice. It was unlike any other restaurant’s dish. We would go there 2-3 times a month at least, and sometimes even just order it to go because it was sooo good.

But when we went there today, the pineapple fried rice was …gross. They changed the recipe by adding curry and having the rice be more mushy—making their fried rice like any other restaurant’s. WHY?!? Doing so just killed a great thing! There’s no plan to return unless they go back to the old recipe. I gave the restaurant 3 stars to account for all of the great meals before; otherwise, if this was my first visit, it would have been maybe one star.

Thai Brothers has been in Laguna Beach for almost 40 year and the food is absolutely wonderful! They provide large servings and allow you to easily customize your order. The staff are friendly and always make me smile. I usually get takeout though because the restaurant is relatively small and it can be difficult to hear each other sometimes. I hope they're still around in another 40 years!

Small, quaint Thai restaurant. Because the restaurant is small, they have limited seating. I was able to get a table quickly because it was after the dinner rush hour. Service was quick, and friendly. They have a good selection of traditional Thai dishes. Prices are high, probably because of location. I ordered Penang Curry with chicken. I requested additional vegetables, and was accommodated with a small up charge. The price for the dish was 20,00 and with the upcharge came to 23.00 It was served on a plate as opposed to a bowl, which I'm used to at most Thai restaurants. It was nicely presented, and came with jasmine rice, however, I could tell right away, it didn't have enough curry sauce for my liking. I ended up asking for more sauce because there just wasn't enough. It was also on the thin side. One way they can improve the dish is by serving it in a nice size bowl, and giving more sauce. I also think the the sauce could be a tad thicker. Making these adjustments would make the dish much better. Their sauce is very good, though the dish needs double or more of the curry sauce than it currently comes with. I also ordered desert, an inexpensive pudding. 3.00 and it was delicious. With tax and tip, my bill was just over 34.00 Street or lot parking can be difficult during busy times.

I was really pleased with the server’s knowledge of the dishes that could be made vegan. I enjoyed the Tofu Todd appetizer and Drunken Noodles (made vegan). There is a list of options on the back that can all be made vegan.

Server was really nice! Thanks. The food.. soup portion - is good for one in our case. The house salad was ok but the dressing which tasted like a lime was really good. The dressing had a kick to it which was not over powering. I am really particular when it comes to peanut dressing but this spot has good peanut dressing/sauce that at least I am able to tolerate.

Location is good. Food was marginal and presentation was nothing impressive. Lacks atmosphere and is small and crowded. I am a Thai junkie and there was nothing impressive about this restaurant.
