This restaurant offers authentic Isarn food. I usually order it through UberEats and their level of care shows in how carefully their packing is.

Excellent northeastern Thai: meat salads, dumplings, noodles, and some curries. Very fresh ingredients skillfully prepared.

Went back in Jan 225, and the food continues to be good. Our server was nice and honest, was direct in her advice, and not trying to promote the expensive items on the menu. In fact, she recommended some of the more basic, but tasty items.

Excellent food. Have ordered food from here twice, and the soups, noodles, fried rice and main courses have all been excellent. Will go back again.

Ordered roti with curry, chicken basil fried rice, shrimp prik king, and thai iced tea. The roti was fine, but felt like they really skimped on the roti. The curry was pretty good but heavy on the salt. Basil fried rice was average, and the prik kinh was also fine but on the salty side as well.

Isarn screams value. Home-style Thai cooking at a super low price point. What more would you possibly want? Yes, the restaurant feels a bit dated and jaded. Yes, this ain't your "impress your date" type of location. What Isarn is is your local go-to Thai restaurant that serves mouth-watering Thai comfort food in a non-gaudy, flavor-first way at an extremely reasonable, and I'd say even cheap, price.
I am so happy to have discovered Isarn in San Carlos and the Peninsula. I really don't think there's another option that matches this much value and joy of dining Thai in the Peninsual, let alone the Bay Area. Yes, there are more fancier and opulent places but of course at a different price point.
The roti with green curry was awesoe. The chicken satays were succulent and juicy. Pad Thai came out a bit too sweet but you can feel the family love. And the Tom Kha soup was wonderful.
Isarn is a local secret. If you're in the Peninsula and need a hearty meal that puts a smile on your face, this is it. Will absolutely frequent.
Parking: Decent sized parking lot for the restaurant.
Wheelchair accessibility: First floor. No issues.

It was pretty early & they weren't even really busy yet. The service was terrible it took them forever to take my order & they took the order of somebody they sat after me. But then the food came I had the Seafood Tom Kha Soup. I asked for very spicy and it came very plain. The seafood in it all tasted like frozen Seafood. The muscles were served out of the shell(FROZEN). Basically all the seafood was rubbery & had an old fishy flavor. I've never experienced this ordering Thai seafood soup. I had leftovers and the next day it was even fishier so I just threw it out. I also had the Crab Rangoon. They advertise "real crab" but it definitely comes from a can and again has a fishy aftertaste, not at all like fresh crab. I would have preferred imitation crab. Also they were really dark in color and tasted like they needed to change the fry oil. This is all I had it was $45 and basically it was a terrible meal with lousy service. I also had to wait to get extra napkins, water and the check took forever. I honestly don't know how people are going back here
