Reviews
We ordered the Penang curry, steak, bánh mì, and beef lettuce wraps. Everything was fantastic except for the curry. It was a bit different from what we’re used to, very lime-forward, though it still tasted good. Our favorite by far was the bánh mì.
The ambiance was cool and eclectic, with lots of interesting photos and artwork throughout the space. I especially loved the large sign you’ll see in the photo below.
Service was good overall. The drinks leaned on the sweeter side, especially the Old Fashioned and Manhattan.
Overall, I’d recommend this spot. Just be prepared for a smaller menu than expected.
I started with the wonton samosa, a playful and delicious fusion that balanced crisp texture with rich, flavorful filling. It was the kind of appetizer that sets the tone for the meal—unique but approachable.
For drinks, the Sioux City Old Fashioned impressed me with its balance. Smooth, well-crafted, and just the right level of boldness—it paired beautifully with both the starter and the main course.
The highlight of the evening was the grilled New York steak. Perfectly cooked to almost blue, very juicy, and seasoned with care, it showed off the kitchen’s skill. The flavors were deep and satisfying, and the preparation respected the cut without overcomplicating it. The Thai chili dipping sauce was phenomenal.
To end the meal, I was lucky enough to try something off-menu: the secret Thai Tea Tiramisu. This dessert was nothing short of brilliant—silky layers with the fragrant sweetness of Thai tea, offering a twist on a classic that I won’t forget.
The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere struck a balance between stylish and relaxed. The music was fun and fit their style. The art was punchy and the added punk twist took me back. Same Same is the kind of restaurant that makes you want to come back—not just for the food, but for the sense that every detail has been thought through.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Highly recommend if you’re in Carlsbad and want a meal that blends creativity, quality, and genuine hospitality.
The food was exceptional. We particularly enjoyed the hot potatoes, cucumber salad, Banh mi, and the wings, all of which had fantastic flavors. If I lived closer, I would certainly be a frequent visitor.
Thank you for the great service and memorable meal.
Same Same doubles as a bar, we went to an 8pm reservation and spilled into the bar/nightclub turnover at 9 pm.
The atmosphere and staff were amazing, super vibes and slick. Wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and not pushy.
The food was insanely fresh and quick. Food came out hot and all the flavors were on point. It’s traditional Thai, with a modern spin.
Highly recommend the chicken wings, and the tuna crudo.
And since it’s a bar, the drinks are creative and tasty.
Sits in upper floor of a Carlsbad shopping center, and kind of hidden in the back.
Love this place, well done.
Kao soi – is it really egg noodles or angel’s hair pasta lol
I liked cucumber, wontons though
Lot of cocktails have spicy complexities which’s interesting to try but beside food & cocktails service kinda ruined all the stars.
