“Best Thai Food Ever“

“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.“

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

“we just moved to the neighborhood...the crab fried rice was sooooo yummy .“

“The food is excellent, and the ambiance is lively, authentic, and welcoming. The décor is attractive and creates a pleasant dining experience. The tables are a bit too close together, but overall the atmosphere is enjoyable.

The service could be improved, particularly regarding hygiene practices. While I appreciate that the waitstaff wear gloves, I have noticed that the same gloves are used both for serving food and for clearing dirty dishes. This defeats much of the purpose of wearing gloves and raises concerns about cross-contamination.

Another practice I found troubling is that staff often place their hands inside the takeout containers provided for leftovers. Similarly, hands should never be placed inside clean water glasses or food containers, even when they are empty. Since the same staff members appear to handle both serving and bussing duties, these practices become even more concerning.

Other than these hygiene issues, I genuinely enjoy the food and would happily visit more often. However, I find myself considering these concerns each time I dine here. If these practices were improved, I believe the restaurant could easily earn an even higher rating and strengthen its reputation with customers“

“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.“

The Satay chicken was tender and flavorful....Pad Woon Sen was fresh and light with crispy vegetables. Cream cheese wontons were great and served as dessert. The portions were generous with plenty left over for a second meal. Pretty sure Little Thai Kitchen is now my favorite Thai food spot!😊“

“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!)“

“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!"“

“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.“

“Nice spot with eclectic decor, really nice people and very flavorful food. I’ll be back!“

“We came across this restaurant and decided to give it a try. As someone who is Thai, I’m usually very selective about Thai restaurants because we cook Thai food at home all the time. But Corner Thai Kitchen truly impressed me. The flavors were authentic, well-balanced, and the ingredients tasted fresh. Everything was delicious, and I would highly recommmend this place!“

“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 :)“

“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!!!!“

“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.“
