Great Thai food at a reasonable price. The only issue was they were unable to make a fresh roll that night.

Favorite Thai spot in SLO. Few places serve khao soil - always good on a cold day!

There’s street parking and parking behind the building, both with their own entrance. Easy to find and easy access. The food is great. I’m not sure if you can add spice levels when ordering, but they accommodated me with some chili oil and chili paste. The “crack” sauce for the crab cheese is addicting. Definitely worth a try.

I LOVE PAPA’S THAI!!! My friends, and I always go for some Thai tea or their green Thai tea. I am also a big fan of their pad thai and their pad sea ew. The workers are very friendly and always recognize us when we come back hahaha. I highly recommend everyone to go there, this place has my heart❤️

I walked into Papa’s Thai Cafe, unsure of what to expect. What I got was quite possibly the most authentic, heavenly, and delicious experience in SLO. Go to this place, indulge yourself in the food. The atmosphere was amazing, the restaurant was clean, and the owners were extremely friendly. The Pad Thai was on par with the food I ate at five star restaurants in Thailand, I genuinely thought I was back, eating a local spot at Samsen Alley in Bangkok. The Spicy Pork Fried Rice was also amazing, and unfortunately it is the only dish I took a picture of. The fried wontons and vegetable egg rolls were a nice treat as well. I can’t recommend this place any more than I already have. 10/10.

This is a gem in this town. Very delicious Thai food. Spacious dine-in place with friendly staffs. Place order first and they will serve your orders to your table. Friendly reminder : don't choose extra spicy (actually this is invented by myself they don't have this option ) 🥵

The food was great! But when we were eating the umbrella came loose and flew off its enclosure and hit us! 🥵
