“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“Everything so good 😛clean friendly“

“Great food and great service! We’ve tried quite a lot of the options on the menu and have not been disappointed. The Tom Yum and basically of the curries are our go-to’s (they had a special Yellow Curry with Fruits which contained lychee and apples and it was sooooo good! Their thai tea and thai coffee are also a must…all in all- every time we’ve gone to eat at Pinto Thai, it hits the spot always!)“

“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.“

“The food was amazing as always.“

“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.“

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

“WOW. Grabbed the panang chicken curry to go. Amazing! Everything you expect a curry sauce to be, only more delicious. I’m very inexperienced on Thai food in general but like Thai curry once in awhile, this was the best I’ve ever had. So good made me write a review!“

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

“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.“

“Excellent service and food in a great location. The Kapow Thai Kai Dow is something I crave now on a regular basis. My wife raved about the yellow curry and my son (12) really enjoyed the chicken pho. Helpful and friendly staff keep us coming back. I recommend this restaurant to all my friends wanting Thai or just good eats.“

“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 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.“
