I finally found a place that serves a juicy steak with a Thai twist. I like that it also came with papaya salad and sticky rice. They also serve soft shell crab here with a Thai flavor--yum! There isn't a lot of parking area in front of the restaurant but it's well worth it for the quality and taste of the food.

Best Thai food in Solana Beach, and some of the best Thai food I've ever had. We've had chicken satay, green curry, pad thai, pad see ew, and probably other dishes here I can't remember. I wouldn't call the service friendly, but the usual hostess/waitress is adequate. I'm fine with this.

However, we arrived around 2 pm on a Friday afternoon and had a terrible different waitress who seemed stressed and was unwelcoming. I understand they close at 3 pm, but there were maybe only 4 other parties dining in who were almost done. She didn't bring us water for a while, and seemed annoyed by us letting our toddler walk around supervised. The customers at the two tables next to us were very friendly and didn't mind his presence, but she made us seem like an inconvenience.

This place is sooooo good! The beautiful host was so sweet! The food was hot with good sized portions. Spicy basil is by far one of my favorites! Highly recommend trying this place out!

Really bad service. The portion was unusually small. The dish did not come out as advertised- -didn't have eggplant in a curry dish as advertised. They got wrong my rice order too. They were rude

A solid Thai spot with good portions and well-made dishes. Nothing mind-blowing but everything hit the spot.

Panang Curry: Get
Definitely the best thing we had. Rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The chicken was tender and the sauce went great with rice.

Glass Noodles with Chicken: Maybe?
Nice texture and a light, savory flavor. It was enjoyable, but I usually prefer pad see ew or something a little heartier. Just a personal preference.

Papaya Salad: Maybe
This one came out very spicy. That was expected, but the balance was off for me. Not enough sweetness or tang to round it out. Still refreshing though.

The service was friendly and the place felt clean and relaxed. Pricing was fair for the portions and overall quality.
