This is one of my favorite restaurant's in town! The food is delicious and the service is just as good. We come here for every birthday or special event because they never disappoint, highly recommend!!
Typical Santa Barbara struggle- decent Thai food, but terrible service. After a fiasco on my birthday, I’ll never return. Please be aware that the server will likely only visit your table once during your visit, except to grab the check. That’s when you will realize that the gratuity has already been included and forced- which explains why the service is such trash!

Had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. Ordered three curries and rice wasn't included; found out after a call that it's a separate purchase, which wasn't communicated during ordering. The special eggplant was overly oily, making it hard to enjoy. It was take out order.

Enjoyed a fantastic meal at Your Choice last night. My first time here, and it did not disappoint. We came early Sunday after they opened and were seated quickly next to the window by Christina our waitress. She was super friendly and we chatted about the menu and asked her recommendations and we ordered appetizers and dinner. Christina went out of her way to make sure we were happy with our meal. The restaurant was really spacious and even though they were busy the staff were attentive and kept our water full and the table cleared, dinner was served so quickly. My wife and I shared two meals and we were both so impressed how great the food was. We enjoyed the music playing while we finished dinner and sampled the tasty ice cream and never felt rushed. We definitely will be back, my Wife has already made this her new favorite Thai spot. Thanks again to Christina for your recommendation, we loved the Wings, Rangoons, The Pad C Noodles were so bomb and the Pineapple Fried Rice was amazing.Parking: Parking lot was full but there were spots and full lots means people enjoy this place. ??
Words can’t express what a great experience we had there. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. I’m extremely picky about my thai food since It’s my favorite food in the world and this restaurant has lived up to my standards. The young lady who helped was was extremely helpful and her recommendations were spot on. We never once had to ask for a refill because she had it on the table before we were done with our drinks. The table we were seated had the perfect view of the area and the atmosphere was romantic and peaceful something parents need when they are having a date night without kids. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and family if they are in the Santa Barbara area. We are definitely returning next time we are visiting the Santa Barbara area again.

This is my favorite Thai food in Santa Barbara, by far :) I highly recommend all of their dishes, their Tom Kha, their desserts, and their homemade ice cream!!! They close at 7:30pm, which is an awkward time for dinner, but everything else is great!

Placed online order for curry dish and extra rice, left a $9 tip. I requested that they add potato to the curry which I had done many times before. When we picked up the order they wanted an addition $1 for the potato. We did not have out wallets with us so we could not pay the addition $1. They took the food back to the kitchen and removed the potato and the extra rice(which we had paid for).The food was below average. The rice we did receive was old and the curry was subpar. I often frequented this restaurant for the last 20 years. I will never return again.
Food is lack luster, appears pre made. Not with the high prices for what you get.

The menu is diverse and interesting but the food was much less so. For Thai food the spicing was bland and had no depth to it. Almost every dish felt overcooked. The chicken satay was decent but a bit dry and needed more sauce. The drunken noodles had very little flavor. their signature eggplant tofu dish was probably the best dish of the night but i've had better. overall it was disappointing.

Casual but tasty Thai restaurant! Awesome local family runs it. Convenient Upper State Street location. Don’t miss the Creaminal ice cream pop up on Saturday nights!Vegetarian options: Lots of meat free choices including curries and soups.Parking: A dozen or so spots in their lot plus plenty more in San Roque.

I've been here many times. Dining in and take out. They consistently have pretty good food. Dining in is just ok, I prefer the takeout. The spicy drunken noodles and the red curry are good. Surprisingly, I think they actually have one of the worst pad thai dishes I've ever had. If you're looking for a better pad thai try empty bowl in the public market. Way better.Vegetarian options: Quite a few if not many vegetarian options.
