“Great Thai food with wonderful service in a strip mall. Minimal atmosphere, although very nice. Lots of free parking and available close to the entrance. Lunch only on the day we were there. We ordered curry with brown rice, but two different curries. They flavored it perfectly with four different spicy levels to choose from. Delicious, quiet enough to enjoy a chat; fast, courteous service. Immaculately clean and friendly! We stumbled on this place after missing our turn, but we will definitely come back again. They do take out, but we dined in and enjoyed it immensely.“

“We found this hidden gem on Instagram and WOW—what an amazing discovery! We’re visiting from Seattle, and as a Thai person, I can proudly say the noodles here are incredibly authentic and full of flavor. We ordered a few different noodles, Chicken and rice, Every bite reminded me of home! The service was wonderful too. Absolutely highly recommended!“

“Simple restaurant with very pleasant, delicious food. I ordered the 3 flavor fish and was satisfied. The flavor was delicious and surprisingly refreshing, not oily tasting like I’ve had elsewhere. Service was to the point and the food came out quickly.“

“My husband and I love this place !! We live in University city and AAHARN restaurant is the best Thai restaurant in University city.

“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“

“Very COVID friendly. Huge portions. Staff a delight. We will be back.“

“Great local Thai food. I wish I tried this restaurant sooner. I didn’t even know it existed in this center for 3 years. Lunch specials are well priced and fulfilling.
The veg soup, spring rolls and gyoza were so fresh. Spicy noodles excellent. I like spicy food and the 5 was pretty spicy. They go 1-10, so I would probably do a 3 or 4 next time with extra spice on the side if needed.
Great for a quick bite before picking up the kids.“

“One of the better dining experiences I’ve had in quite some time! Everything was delicious, staff was attentive and quick, food came out in a reasonable time and everything was piping hot and fresh 😋

I wanted to note that the negative reviews involving staff pushing them out honestly makes sense from a business point of view, it’s ridiculous to order take out and assume you can take a seat from those intending to eat there. It’s a small place, it’s to be expected! We had no problems feeling rushed, and even if we were, I’d absolutely understand if they had people waiting for tables. Don’t let those ridiculous reviews put you off from giving this place a try, it’s totally worth trying!“

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

“The food was amazing as always.“

“amazing food! probably the best Tom Kha soup in San Diego!!“

“ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเรืออร่อย พนักงานน่ารัก“

“Friendly staff and outstanding food quality. Yellow curry (medium) is amazing, and plenty for at least two meals. Basil fried rice and Drunken Noodles were excellent also. Gor Gai is a regular favourite for us!!“

“Thai Time III is a go-to for take-out nights when I stay with friends in Clairemont. Hard to beat their prices and speed for the quality! Wish I had a place like TT III in my neighborhood in the Bay.

We usually get their pad thai, fried appetizers, curries, fried rice, and Thai tea. For the lunch entree with pad thai, an egg roll, and small salad, it's $12.50!

The staff are always super quick and welcoming when we stop by. Parking is also easy in the complex. One of our favorite weeknight spots.“

“One of my fav spots. Drunken Noodles, Panang Curry, and basil fried rice are my favs. Husband really loves the lump crab fried rice. The crispy dark meat chicken is a must on any rice or noodle dish. Friendly service, laid back atmosphere. Only suggestion is that they change their surface cleaner. The chemical scent is too strong.“

“Great food and very nice ambience.“

“We come here OFTEN. We're obsessed!! We get the pad thai and pad see ew often, but love the jerky and the tom kha soup equally, and honestly haven't tried much more because we love those so much. We always finish with mango sticky rice. The staff are all so sweet and attentive, the owner Stella is awesome, and the plants/atmosphere is so fun! We love having a favorite thai place to come back to again and again. Couldn't recommend more!“

“Stumbled on to this establishment to dine in after a day st an air show in the area and I was completely and pleasantly surprised at the quality of food and service. Their menu jad generous selections for vegetarians, too! Will definitely return whenever I'm in the area in the future!“

“Food is amazing.
Rose lychee green tea is refreshing and my new favorite

I had the chicken pad Thai level 1 spice and it was great. Not too spicy. But it has a decent kick to it.

I definitely want to try the bbq honey pork next.“

“Thai style papaya salad paired well with the Laos sausage and beef. The soup had a lot of vegetables. You won't feel bloated nor guilty after eating all this food. I could imagine eating this again in a hot summer day. Gives you that fresh and cooling feeling while eating.“
