I ordered thai vegetable fried rice and tom yum vegetable soup for dinner . The soup was just fine but there was no spice at all though I asked for medium spice and the fried rice was very bland , no salt , no spice, not enough veggies and the worst of all it smelled like smoke all over. Not enjoyable at all and can be much

Food is yummerz and service is superb. We had a super kind waiter who didn't rush us even though we stayed a little after closing. Initially, the serving portion looks light for what you pay for but it is actually quite filling. My friend and I loved our noodles ???

Chicken satay was good. The sauce was kind of watery. I also had Penang chicken and a scale of 1 to 10 I did a spice level of six. It was kind of bland and really not that great. It was OK but nothing to write home about. Probably would not go back there again.

It seems an okay place but you can definitely find better. My yellow curry was too sweet for my taste. Potatoes in it were too firm. And waitress didn't even ask me about spice level, giving me a non-spicy version.

First of all, food is excellent. Servers are actually pretty good assuming they don't partake in the scheme that I describe below.I was charged double the sales tax.The tip suggestion is based on the TOTAL which already includes tax. (Why I have to tip on sales tax? In my case, I tipped on a double sales tax, yikes!)Attached is a copy of my receipt as proof.Like I said, food is great. Just make sure to always ask for a receipt and go through it with a fine comb. And don't ever follow the suggested tipping.
Delicious Thai Basil and Thai Tea. I'd recommend the lunch special, but the soup wasn't flavorful. I'd have preferred if I could have substituted it or upgraded it for Tom Ka. The soup was set out upon arrival. While considerate, the broth was really flavorless.

My staple go-to restaurant when I stay in San Jose. The Chix Satay is grilled nicely and the peanut sauce is flavorful and creamy. I also enjoy the Pad Thai but be specific with the spice level you would like. I may also suggest adding slightly more sauce to the dish as it had been a little on the dry side at times.

I regularly go to this restaurant and I also order from them on doordash. One thing to note if you order from doordash the dishes are all a few dollars more expensive. Let's start with the stir fried dishes. Most of the basic thai stir fried dishes like basil chicken and their noodles like pad Thai is very average. I personally hate it when they put bell pepper in a thai basil chicken. Anybody who had eaten a Thai basil chicken in Thailand will never ever see bell peppers in a basil chicken. This seems to be a common practice here which over powers the actual chilli garlic and basil flavor. Nobody also puts onions in a basil chicken dish. The pad Thai is what you will get in any Thai joint in North America , 50 percent authentic and it's too sweet. There should be a balance if sweet sour and salty in a pad Thai. The papaya salad is good not great. The salted crab papaya salad they also peanuts which is unusual not usual but it's ok. Some if the sea food dishes from the chef special menu for stand out and get prepared well. The whole garlic fish fried is nice. I also like their Tom yum noodle soup. It's spicy sour and good fresh herbs flavors. I do like their tod man plaa or the fried fish cakes. They do a good job at that and the way they present it is good also. The chef special dishes usually give you a better culinary experience while the other dishes are quite average. Yes they use authentic ingredients and I have not sensed any time so far where I felt they used frozen or ready made ingredients. The cooks in the back are Thai or lao and I have heard them speaking and so I know they have the potential to cook up much more authentic dishes. I hope they can innovate and be bold and execute the dishes the way people eat it in thailand. It is a good place to go as a group of four or five as their is good seating space. It's also a good place go with family. Lastly their mango sticky rice is well made. The mango has always been fresh and not over riped and the sticky rice hot wish nice milky coconut milk. Not too sweet and not too sour mango. The selection of dishes is good. A good balance of stir fry, soups, curry, sea food , noodles etc. If I was in Thailand I would have rated this place 1.5/5, but being in North America I give them a 3/5. Definitely an above average place. But not good.

I went to this restaurant for the first time on a Friday night around 6:30pm with a few friends. There was no other customers there when we went there which makes me concerned about the economy overall. The lack of customers wasn't a reflection of the quality of the food, I just think dining out has become too expensive. I ordered the Panang curry with beef and it was very flavorful. I have not tried anything else on this menu. Parking is plentiful and this is in the complex next to 99 Ranch. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other dishes and when the mango is on season so I can get mango sticky rice.

We have ordered "Pad see ew" with tofu and "garlic lovers delight" with tofu. One of the best Thai places in Sunnyvale area! Hands down. Read for more details.I don't know why the place has low rating but we were pleasantly surprised.The pad see ew comes with abundance of tofu (fried), broccoli and carrots. The noodles are well seasoned and mixed together with eggs. The only suggestion is they should ask for spice level as I want my dishes a more spicy!The garlic lovers delight was a hoot and some more! Amazing curry made with black pepper and garlic. Very nicely season broth too. The dish comes with broccoli, carrot and choice of meat/tofu. Also it comes with side rice. Both the dishes were amazing! We will definitely go back as the service were also fast and the waitress was very cordial and nice. I don't know why the reviews are bad but I urge the nay-sayers to go and taste these dishes again if they didn't already. Definitely a must have Thai place.
Pineapple fried rice. Delicious!
