“My husband and I ordered the sampler and drunken noodles to share. The food surpassed my expectations. Most surprisingly was the Tempura shrimp, I'm typically not a fan of seafood. However their shrimp was cooked to melt in your mouth perfection.We picked up in Santee and drove 15 minutes home, everything was still piping hot. Perhaps best of all, the servings were big enough for lunch tomorrow ?“
“I have loved this place for many years! I didn’t realize before arriving that the name had changed, but I was relieved to see signage stating the ownership and chefs remained the same. Delicious as always! They did change up the decor, so it’s more “modern” now (I loved the classic decor before) but nothing to complain about.“
“As someone who frequents Thai restaurants, I am very rarely impressed by a new place but Thai Time was GREAT. I went here randomly for lunch and wish I lived closer to go more often. From the stainless steel cups for their Thai Tea, to the savoury curry, and even unique sushi rolls, this place was awesome and had it (I also got the Mussaman Curry)“
“The food here is so good! It was my first time going, and won't be my last. The food portions are giant but SO worth it. I had already eaten part of my fried rice and all of the Vegetables fried spring rolls before I took the picture haha! The people here are SO friendly. Seems like a family ran restaurant. They were so all sweet and so friendly! It is connected to their donut shop this looks absolutely amazing as well! They had music playing and the restaurant was so clean. It was a great choice. 1,000x recommend.“
“It is an inviting place, as soon as you walk in the flower hanging over the ceiling. It looks like you are inside of a garden. Waitress was very friendly and she was often checking on us to see if we needed anything. The food was excellent and the portion was good to share with 2 if you want to try different things on the menu. Crab fried rice was a very big portion. Enough for more than 2 people to share.“
“Great service, not the best looking location, but some pretty darn good food! I’m petty picky about my pad Thai and they made it just right. Location isn’t the best looking but that’s not what we fatties are here for right!!!? Highly recommend :)“
“Their BBQ chicken and rice bowl is delicious! Bee is amazing and keeps everything moving smoothly. Actually, the entire crew is great. The decor is stylish and welcoming. The prices are good and the service is also! Thai Joint gets 11 out of 10 stars from me.“
“I was there for take-out twice, so I have more experience w the service and food. About the food, it's fantastic. I felt like Laoatian has a ton of similarities with Thai. But even the, this was some of the best I've had, even in Thailand. I'm sure I picked the wrong places.“
“I came here for lunch. I had the drunken noodle with chicken and fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce. The drunken noodle was really flavorful and fresh. The fresh spring rolls with the peanut sauce was a really nice touch. The peanut sauce is one of the best I've ever had. The waiter was really nice and on top of what we needed. The inside is really clean and the seating is just right. I would highly recommend you come check this place out. I will be back again thank you for taking care of me“
“Best vegan Thai food in El Cajon! I definitely recommend coming to dine in I love the decor and felt a light energy. Service was prompt and courteous and the option of the all vegan menu and delicious Thai tea has now ensured I will keep coming back. Thank you thank you thank you ??Vegetarian options: New optional all vegan options !Dietary restrictions: Vegan availableParking: Parking is in the back and there are plenty of spaces.“
“Love this little spot for Thai. They are very friendly and they have great dishes. I always see the place packed. Be careful or patient when coming at busy times because they do have limited seating but it is worth it.Parking: Plenty of lot parkingKid-friendliness: Yes“
“I've been looking for a Thai place that has a good panong salmon. This is the place. Even though it was take-out, it was beautifully presented. The salmon was cooked to perfection. The panong was lovely, and lots of broccoli and carrots. Friendly service during pickup. I'd definitely do eat-in here.“
“Delicious food made with love and care! I love this family owned Thai place. The restaurant is a little cozy so it may be better for take out. The portions were good and the taste was phenomenal! I'll definitely be back. Thank you for your service!“
“I ordered the red curry and Tom kha soup because it's my favorite when I'm not feeling well. The dishes did not disappoint! They arrived fast and the price was tasty, too. Spicy level 1 is all you need, unless you are part dragon.“
“Cute Thai place off of El Cajon. It's nestled in the same plaza as Rise, Cheba Hut, and some fitness centers, so parking can be tough, but it's open after 8pm and worth checking out for a nice dinner. Service was only one person on a Friday night, but they were attentive and our food arrived quickly. Food- Favorites are the tamarind wings, tom yum with shrimp, and pad thai. The spice level is from 1-10 so we chose 5, but as someone who doesn't really do well with thai spices, could have gotten a 7-8. We also got the house special Ka Pao that tasted even better the next day. The soup was refreshing and a good as well - two of us finished the large as a starter.“
“Although I'm not a huge fan of Thai food, I must admit that this place is really good. I haven't been to Thailand, so I can't vouch for its authenticity, but the curries are a fantastic choice. Their Tom Kha soup stands out with a unique taste not found in other versions from different restaurants. It's definitely a great spot for takeout, considering the relatively small dining room.“
“We visited Bamboo Fresh Thai Cuisine, and this place fulfilled our craving for Thai food! The ladies were super kind, welcoming, and engaging. We learned about the history of some of their specialty dishes and how the Thai people also eat them. It was hot and sunny, so we had a rich and refreshing Thai Iced Tea to cool us down. We started with the Curry Puffs, which were so pillowy and heavenly. These were definitely made with love! Next, we enjoyed the Som Tum Salad and Pad Thai with Tofu which were flavorful and complemented one another so well. The dishes were all beautifully presented and perfectly balanced between salty, sweet, spicy, and sour. Make sure you try a sweet treat in the end. We had the creamy Tapioca Coconut Milk and it did not disappoint. There were so many dishes on the menu, and we can’t wait to visit again to try them all. The food was delicious, and the staff was simply amazing! If you absolutely love Thai food, this is the place!“
“My husband and I love this place !! We live in University city and AAHARN restaurant is the best Thai restaurant in University city. We have tried so many dishes such as Lamb massaman, Neu Nam Tok, Chicken biryani. We love them all! Our server was very nice and kind. I highly recommend this restaurant. ♥️♥️♥️“
“The menu is varied, descriptive and contains photos of the entrees listed. I was very happy with the basil chicken. We also had spicy Thai noodles and another item; all delicious. The service is outstanding.Parking: Parking is located directly behind the restaurant, off a narrow side street. It is easy to miss if you are not looking for it.Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible from the parking lot and into the restaurant using the rear entrance.“
“I went in yesterday, never been before. The ladies who helped me order were amazing, specially one. Thank you! I wish I would have asked your name. The food she suggested I order was amazing and just the right flavor. My family really enjoyed it. I will be back.“
“So far everything I've tried has been delicious!! My favorites are the Drunken noodles and the cream cheese wonton. The flavors are perfect. And the wontons are so good Especially the way she rolls them you get the perfect bite of crispy wonton and cream cheese mix inside with every bite *Chefs kiss* wishing them the best of luck!!“
“So delicious! The soup that comes with the lunch special knocked my socks off. The prices are great. Outstanding noodles. Friendly, efficient service. Feels like eating at a little hole in the wall on a Thai island, except with real chairs (iykyk). I'll be back.“
“I love Iron Pan Thai and have been going here for over 2 years now. Their lunch specials are perfect for a quick lunch and their dinners are enough for 2 people to share. We order a lot of take-out because they are so quick and have a lot of vegetarian and vegan options when friends/family visit.They also offer catering which I did for a party of 60 people. They gave so much food and we got a lot of compliments about the food being delicious and fresh. I would totally cater with them again!“
“Pictured: Satay Chicken, Panang Curry (with chicken), and Crispy Calamari.Service was great, only one person working for dinner doing to go’s and dine ins. Didn’t get her name but she was very friendly!Ambience was very cozy.Panang Curry was amazing!! I was asked for a spiciness level between 1-10 and I chose 6. It was spicier than I thought it would be but still great flavor. Crispy Calamari was good. Also comes with fried veggies. Satay Chicken was also good.Will be coming back!“
“Here visiting from NYC and needed to grab dinner in the area so checked the reviews and decided to give it a try. Let me say I loved this restaurant. First of all the food is VERY VERY GOOD, better than all the NYC Thai restaurants I go to, great flavors. We had about 6 entrees and there wasn't a single one we didn't love. Also we loved the staff who are very welcoming and kind. The ambiance is what it is... but it's just a lovely place and the food is just... delicious. Highly recommend!“
“Best Thai food in North County! It's one of the best Pad Thai's I've ever had! My girlfriend loves ALL the currys. The service, no matter who's working, is always spot on. Always friendly and efficient. Kudos Urban! We love you!“
“If you're looking for Thai in Poway, this is your best bet! I have been to every Thai place in poway, and this is the place to go for the most authentic Thai food, amazing Thai tea, and excellent staff. There are occasions when the spice level isn't always the same, where "spicy" is more "medium" than other days. But the food is always stellar!“
“My friend and I tried the wonton soup and the spicy eggplant stirfry (w steamed tofu and brown rice). The server asked how spicy I wanted the stirfry on a scale of 1 to 10, I said 4. Oh wow it had a kick! Both dishes were flavorful and just so yummy. I'm glad my friend introduced me to Sab E Lee. She said she and her fam like the usual fare like pad thai, drunken noodles, and green curry. I'll come back for more!“
“Authentic recipes, great pricing, excellent service, what more could you ask for? they have an awesome lunch menu. I highly recommend you get the soup or salad and for your entree you can choose vegetarian, chicken, beef, pork, seafood Etc and the prices are excellent such a great value.Update: The service is still good even though like other restaurants they are having trouble finding help.Parking: Kind of tight so if In big vehicle try the far end of the lot.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps at the handicap spots“
“Cozy Restaurant in the heart of North Park. The food is delicious. We had Egg Rolls, Drunken Noodles, Panang Curry with Brown Rice and Ginger Tea. Price is affordable and customer service is 10/10. I highly recommend this restaurant. Vegan options available upon request.“
“This place is a gem! I try to come every time I can. The place is very chill and clean. They usually have music playing, but comfortable enough to have a conversation over lunch/dinner. I have tried their yellow curry, pad thai, egg rolls, and garlic edamame. Everything is delicious, homey and made at request, which is one of the things I love about this place! The serving sizes are real good too and the staff is friendly and attentive.The neighborhood is a commercial and residential area, so there is foot and vehicle traffic all the time, is also well lit and there's also other businesses around.“
“Absolutely awesome experience! Had a comfortable, clean, casual setting with lovely customer service. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced.They also have a new discounted happy hour menu which is convenient and yummy! I would 100% recommend to come here and try their food! It is one of favorite restaurants now !I even forgot to take a picture of the food since it was so good.“
“great place small but family owned the staff were Great and the food was great. busy for the size of the restaurant. that's not a bad thing. I love the atmosphere and look forward to going back. the cost of the dinner $$ so most people can hopefully find something they are hungry for“
“First off, I just want to say that the staff was very nice and that alone made me more hopeful for the food. I ordered the chow mein, orange chicken, and the drunken noodles, and wow all of them were delicious. The chow mein was absolutely packed with flavor and if it's too much for you, you can mix it with rice and the flavors will spread all throughout the rice. The drunken noodles were perfectly cooked and once again the flavors were on point making you want more. Finally, the orange chicken was my favorite. The sauce was perfect and the vegetables were coated in the orange sauce making me finish my vegetables (crazy for me). Overall, I definitely need to come back to try the other dishes on the menu and it seems to be sooner than later. If you're looking for some good reasonably priced thai food this will become your go to spot in lemon grove.Parking: Lots of parking nearby so nothing to worry about.Wheelchair accessibility: There is wheelchair accessibility throughout that mini plaza.“
“Seriously some of the most delicious Thai food I've ever had. I ordered the yellow curry, red curry, and the pad see-ew. All medium spice. The food is fresh and the flavor is on point. Just the right amount of richness and spice, and everything seasoned to perfection. Highly recommend!“
“My pad Thai with tofu was absolutely delicious & my hubby loved his shrimp fried rice! The staff that was at the restaurant tonight were really nice & welcoming. Loved that he repeated my order back to me when I called my order in!Vegetarian options: Most dishes can be made vegetarian & even vegan.Parking: Lots of parking! They’re located in the same area as Target.“
“Came here for dinner around 18:45 on a Thursday with my family. It was not busy at all so we were seated right away. We were provided water right away and given time to look at the menu. I wanted to order the Crab Meat Fried Rice, but they did not have everything to make it, so I went with the Panang Curry with spice level 2. My wife got the Panang Curry level 4 and my mom got the Chicken BBQ Fried Rice. Everything was really delicious and flavorful. The place had lot of decorations and looked clean all around. The staff was quick and friendly. We would definitely come back for more, especially the proximity to our home.“
“Raised my review as I keep going back! This place makes fantastic food and the people are nice. If you want great, quality chinese food, this is your place to go! I always order the mock chicken in all the dishes and it is so delicious! My spouse orders the regular (real chicken) dishes and he loves them. Their hot tea is good too...not crazy about the appetizers, but the main dishes are just fantastic. Most dishes range from $16-$18 and well worth it. Go try them out!“
“Tried this location for the first time. Enjoyed the food and the prices were more than reasonable for the portions. We did a combination of lunches and dinner plates as a to go order and everything was fresh and tasty. Our lunches with chicken was approx 12 each and included rice and a small soup. Soup was delicious!I also ordered their Beef Salad which thankfully they put the dressing on the side so the greens stayed crisp. (I’ve been to many Thai restaurants and they often put it on which makes the greens soggy by the time you get home and no good for leftovers). The flavors were right on.Will definitely return!“
