Most of these bad reviews are garbage, probably competitors. This food is AMAZING. I love Thai food, but authentic Thai, not watered down American Thai. California Thai Cafe is amazing. All of our five dishes bursting with flavor, the freshness and taste apparent in every bite. 5 orders with 20% tip $117. Worth ever penny!

This place is awesome. We were the last one that night to visit this restaurant. The owner was so courteous to welcome us and served the most delicious thai food. He was very welcoming and patiently waited for us to finish our meal. Should give it a try if craving for thai food. You won’t be disappointed.

This is my favorite Thai restaurant in San Diego. I’ve sampled many of their dishes but especially love their yellow curry and panang curry. My food always arrives freshly made, hot and delicious. The friendly, good-looking staff and owners always welcome me and make me feel at home.

My adult daughter and I went here for the first time. It was dinner on Easter Sunday. We were hoping for good Thai food. We walked in and saw only one table (with 3 people) filled in the whole place. At the time we thought we were lucky. Afterwards we realized why this place was almost empty. The seating hostess was a young lady who followed us to the table of our choice and was nice enough, if it hadn’t been for her extremely strong body odor and day-old sunscreen smell. And I do mean *smell.* We ordered our food and she brought us tea as we requested. I ordered Yellow Curry (spice level 1) and my adult daughter ordered Pad Se Ew (spice level 10). We know Thai food. We’ve eaten tons of it over the years and we know how it’s supposed to taste. Of course, there are slight variations between restaurants, but primarily when you order a staple Thai dish, you know what to expect. We also ordered (veggie) egg rolls. They were, predictably, over-fried. They were also tasteless. If not for the dipping sauce, there would have been no flavor. Our food came in huge portions. That should have been a clue right there. In my life (I’m in my 60’s) I’ve discovered that restaurants that serve huge portions are trying to make up for their poor cooking. My yellow curry came with a bowl of rice that would have served 5 people. The bowl with the yellow curry was huge and filled almost to the top. I added some rice and began to eat. I immediately started to cough and choke – it wasn’t spice level 1, it in was more like level 5! I soldiered on. I bit into the huge chunk of potato and it tasted off. I’ve never had a potato ever taste like that. In any cuisine. The carrots in it were ok, the onions were too hard still. I ate about half and stopped. I’m hoping that potato doesn’t do a number on me later. My daughter had taken a few bites of her Pad Se Ew and pronounced it as inedible. She said the noodles tasted like salt, pepper, and chili peppers, while the tofu tasted like black bean sauce. My daughter mostly eats Thai, Indian, and Vietnamese cuisine. She also cooks it at home for herself and her guests. She knows good food. She refused to eat another bite. I called over the male waiter and asked if he was the manager. He said he was. I told him the problem with my daughter’s food (she is 30 but was too embarrassed to complain) and he could see it was barely touched. I asked what he’d do about it and he acted offended and was at first unwilling to do anything. He finally said he’d offer me a discount for our next time there. What was I supposed to do – argue with him? When the young lady brought us the check (by the way, everything was very overpriced considering the neighborhood and quality of food), I saw a card on top offering 10% off to “special guests.” I guess in this instance, “special guests” means those people stupid enough to return for more dismal cooking. The card accidentally fell on the floor and I left it there where it belonged. I told her we wouldn’t be back. As we were leaving, I heard one of the men at the other table also express displeasure with their meal. What a surprise! Not. I believe with all my heart that this restaurant will be out of business in 6 months.

I got green curry and pineapple fried rice! You are able to change your spice level on both dishes and is enough for several servings. Also u can request to have no cashews in the pineapple fried rice 🙂 the green curry does not come with white rice. U must order it.

This is a great place to go for lunch. Every dish I’ve eaten here is superb. If you work in the area or are at one of the auto shops nearby or live on base, this is one of the best places you can get a bite at.
