Super quaint and cute spot. Memorably delicious. Simple menu and great explanations for different styles of pad thai. Spice on the side was a good idea for me. Small spot but implied in the name. Kind of chilly in the shade, as is common in San Diego. Decent space for free parking. Highly recommend.

One of the worst Thai spots . Went here thinking it was good after looking at reviews. Option very limited. Flavors horrible. I asked for a Thai with peanuts and light shallot and creamy. Ended up getting Thai from a reused pot from other customers orders. I literally sat there watching them cook the food in the same pots and I’m assuming it a family ran business and they made a comment about mom making that food earlier. I spend 20 buck for something that was edibles. I asked for the lowest spice level and my food Felt like it was the highest of heat level. Go somewhere else trust me. Not worth it. Horrible experience. My stomach is still hurting midday after eating that junk. I literally ate 3 bites and wanted to be fair. If there was a zero rating i would’ve given that

Great, authentic pad Thai! We ordered the lobster pad Thai northern style and the seafood (shrimp, scallops, mussels, calamari) pad Thai southern style. Everything tasted great, with lots of love. We also got a Thai tea which was very tasty. Extremely nice and sweet staff and the food came out quickly. Dog friendly patio as well. Definitely recommend!

Noodles were…fine. Taste was okay. Barely any chicken considering the price. The pad thai at most Thai restaurants is better, but judging from other reviews it sounds like this place can be good, just inconsistent. I probably won’t return.
The Thai iced tea was solid, however.

Without a doubt the best Pad Thai in America.
Everyone I know (including myself), every thai person I know and EVERYONE who has actually been to Thailand, allllll agree,
This is the ONLY place in all of America where the Pad Thai is just as good if not better then the best you can find in Thailand
Any not so good review I promise to is because their food pallet is trash and you wouldn’t ever want to hear their recommendation.
I’m a food critic who is extremely harsh.
But this is a 1 in a million spots.
No where in America is half as authentic , fresh, or tasty.
Make sure you go,
And if you don’t agree, then you don’t have the taste pallet to review food even in Google….

I’ve been here quite a few times and I’m finally leaving a review because today it was PHENOMENAL. Whoever the cook was today, Saturday December 6th around 8pm seriously deserves a raise. I’d give this place 5 stars on a normal day but today it seriously exceeded expectations. I got the Southern style pad Thai, mild, with chicken. It was perfectly seasoned, the sauce was incredibly flavorful, and the cook on the noodles was perfect. 10/10

Disappointing Food + Poor Customer Service + Messy Outdoor Dining Area
We visited this place few years back because their menu offered multiple Pad Thai flavor options, and we wanted to understand the differences. When we asked the owner for more details about the ingredients and how each flavor was prepared, she told us that one of the flavors used fish sauce as the main ingredient and described it as a “sweet, sweet dish.”
Since fish sauce is traditionally savory, we asked for clarification, but the owner responded in a sarcastic way, insisting that “all fish sauce is sweet”.
When our order arrived, the Pad Thai came out all glued together like a single block and extremely sticky, making it difficult to mix or enjoy properly. The outdoor dining area was also quite messy and didn’t feel well-maintained, which added to the overall disappointment.
After our visit, my partner left an honest review describing what happened. Instead of taking the feedback constructively, the owner accused us of trying to ruin a local business—something we found surprising, since we were simply sharing our real experience from that day.
Based on the service, the food quality, and how the situation was handled, we would not recommend returning. This review is here to share our experience and help others make an informed decision.

I feel like the past 2-3 times I’ve ordered have been a waste of money. There’s literally no sauce, just bland noodles. I wish I could say this is the first time but I kept trying it again. I think it’s time to find a new place. Guys I’m not even exaggerating, there’s no sauce at all and the bean sprouts smelled and tasted so old ˙◠˙
For over $15/plate, I expected so much more

Casual and tasty spot to try out several regional variations of Pad Thai. Most people have had the Bangkok version, with eggs, peanuts, etc. But this place features unique ingredients such as curry paste, pork rinds, and more. I recommend the Northern or Old-Style versions for something new and delicious.
Portions are more than fair and the service has been friendly each time I’ve visited. Try and take out order from here some time and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

Ordered to go, found a long strand of black hair & called to ask for a refund. Two orders were placed, and I only requested for one to be fair (the other seemed fine). My hair is very short and red. Workers said that they were unable to do so, boss was out of town… not well receptive on helping with follow-up on the issue either.
Overheard them complaining about my request in the background as well. Not professional mannerism for a mistake that is on their part…
update: hair found in other dish, as well as an eggshell remnant
