    E13. Thai Orange Chicken Cucumber salad  Spicy chicken

    The food is delicious, I got the Thai orange chicken and a cucumber salad. It was so good. The place is small and quiet but the service is fast. Definitely try it!

    Ah, I'm so happy to find good Thai/Malaysian food. It's far for me, but it's worth driving. I am thankful to my friend who introduced me to this place. Ms Dang was our server, and she was very friendly and professional. I also took a picture of the menu, which was filled with yummy dishes. We started with soup, which was delicious and served hot. After the soup, we ordered appetizers, chicken satay, and good spring rolls This time, we decided to try yellow curry, and we are so happy we tried something different. Ms Dang kept checking if we liked or needed anything else. Good Service and good food, we left very happy. This place has a big parking area, which makes life much easier. Please try this place and support your local neighborhood businesses. Thx :)

    Loved this spot!! Have been on the hunt for a new Thai place and this spot is both Thai and Malaysian so their menu caters to both cuisines and offers different options than a typical Thai spot. We got the tom kha soup, hokkien mee noodles, and the basil chili salmon. The soup was so good, super light and warm and filled with veggies. The noodles were also super tasty, they didn't skimp on the shrimp. The salmon fell a bit short for us, it was on the sweeter side and we didn't realize it when ordering but the fish was deep fried, and honestly grilled would've been nice/better. Overall loved this spot, but anticipate a wait on weekends since they have limited tables.

    Craving for tom yum soup and anything curry on a Xmas shopping day. Been to this place once. Friendly wait person, speedy food delivery and plenty tables. I had ordered a small tom yum soup with chicken to start then green curry with veggie and tofu. The lunch menu is a couple of dollars less and includes a small salad. Green salad at Asian restaurant with their special thousand island like dressing always delightful. The soup was definitely more than one person can have with mushrooms, tomatoes, bamboo shoots, lemongrass. The spicy and tangy taste always helps me recover from a cold. The green curry had me with the eggplant. Overall, it was a pleasant lunch with plenty of leftover for another meal.

    There are many Asian options in this area, but many are meat focused, like Korean BBQ, and so forth. Thai is always a great choice for us pescatarians, and Basil Delight was a nice choice. I ordered a Melacca cauliflower, which like many dishes, came with a choice of meat. I chose tofu, and was delighted with how it was cooked. This wasn't exactly health food, but very satisfying, like good bar food. The Wife also had a veggie and tofu dish instead of her usual Pad See Ew, and was happy with it. The place was bright and open, and pretty empty, and the service was just ok, considering it was just us and some take-out orders.

    This place is so underrated! It's a blend of Malaysian food and Thai food. We ordered the fish fillet and the crab and shrimp fried rice. Both were so good! I usually get the chow kuei tiao which is quite delicious! Service is good. Prices are also very reasonable.

    Nice Thai restaurant. Good food. Great service. The lady gave our group much attention and was patient with all our requests. Favorite was the papaya salad.

    Sometimes you try some place new and then you "land on landmine." This is one restaurant that I wish I didn't try. I frequent this plaza often and usually I'd go for the Shanghainese restaurant but wanted to try something new so opted for this restaurant which surprisingly has a 4 star average rating (how?). The restaurant states it's Malay and Thai food which is great because I love Malaysian and Singaporean food even more than Thai food but wow that's a big mistake by itself. One of the stable food for Malaysian/Singaporean food is Chow Kueh Teow so I ordered it but that was probably the biggest mistake of the day. Not only it has nothing right with wrong noodle, wrong sauce, wrong flavor and worst of all it's way too wet whereas Chow Kueh Teow should've been dry. The basil seafood was another letdown. It mostly gives you the imitation crab meat which was too thick to be stir fried properly so the inside was not cooked. They also only gives you two tiny shrimps. There was no squid or fish cake in most proper Thai restaurant. Lastly the tamarind prawns were better than the other two but the prawns were too small and too few to make it change my rating. This is definitely not authentic Thai food so if you expect good Thai food don't come here. The restaurant is clean and service is typical so I won't fault them on these. Go to any other restaurant or even the food court in this plaza.

    Amazing Halal Thai Food! The service is super fast and the food arrives hot and fresh! Loved the fish fillet especially because of its amazing taste and the texture. The Fried rice and the chicken were good too.

    Good local spot, located in a plaza right next to the outlets with lots of parking. It can get busy during the holidays when there are a lot of people coming to shop! Food was good. Service was good. Good restaurant for some local Thai.

    I came over to California, for my husband's doctors appointment. We stopped for the night in Livermore on our way back home, and we both wanted Chinese Food. We ordered takeout and they were Zippity fast!! We were starving. We ordered Pad Thai, chicken Satay and veggie egg rolls. The food was delicious, really good!! Yum! Their sauces of Chili sauce, satay sauce, soy sauce were delicious. Very good food. We enjoyed our dinner after we found a place to camp overnight in our camper van. Food hit the spot. Thanks!

    We came in Sunday afternoon at 1p and the restaurant was packed! Hopefully you're not as naive as my group, but we were rushed to wait outside before even putting our name on the waitlist (at this point, we didn't know there was a waitlist! It's at the counter) Food: Tamarind fish: super thin outer layer, and it has the perfect amount of crunch. Think of it as Asian fish and chips but better!! We loved the sauce, and it was so yummy with the veggies dipping in. Basil eggplant: I don't usually like eggplants, but these were really good. The sauce was tangy, but it wasntt overwhelming at all. I believe this came with a rice! Panag curry: the portion was shockingly small, and the beef was overcooked. It comes with green beans. This was a miss for us, probably wouldn't order this again and will try the yellow curry next time. Pineapple fried rice: the shrimps were small, but they are super crunchy and not overcooked. This was a pretty standard dish, not much to say. Overall, the bill came out to 70 bucks post tip, which honestly is pretty good. Our group left full and pleased!

    Any vegetarian no onion no garlic options?

    I believe so. They're very friendly about modifying your meal if you request it.

    Hi guys, Is the place halal certified? Who's the owner? Thx ...

    There's a halal sticker on the door. No idea who the owner is.

    Our iniBurger Review…read more We came hungry and definitely didn't leave disappointed. MexiCali Burger Packed with flavor. The pepper jack cheese, jalapeños, and sauce gave it a nice kick without being overwhelming. If you like a little heat with your burger, this is the one to order. Falafel Burger As someone who doesn't always gravitate toward beef, I was excited to try this one. The falafel had a great texture, the toppings were fresh, and it felt like a complete meal rather than an afterthought vegetarian option. Kids Cheeseburger Meal Honestly one of the best values on the menu. Wally approved. The burger was a great size for kids, and pairing it with onion rings made it feel like a meal he'd actually get excited about. Sweet Potato Fries Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seasoned just right. These disappeared quickly. Onion Rings Crunchy coating, sweet onion center, and cooked perfectly. Definitely worth adding to your order. Loaded Spicy Garlic Fries These stole the show. Crispy fries loaded with flavor and just enough spice to keep you reaching for another bite. If you're sharing, order one for the table. If you're not sharing, order one for yourself. Mac & Cheese Bites Golden, crispy, cheesy comfort food. These were a hit with both kids and adults. Habanero Mango Wings Mike's favorite item of the night. The perfect balance of sweet and heat. The mango brought a touch of sweetness while the habanero delivered just enough kick to keep things interesting. These were sticky, flavorful, and impossible to stop eating. Fried Cheesecake A fun surprise. Warm, creamy cheesecake inside with a crispy exterior. It's rich enough to split, but you might not want to. Strawberry & Chocolate Milkshakes Thick, creamy, and made for burger night. The strawberry was refreshing and sweet, while the chocolate was rich and classic. A special shout-out to Farrah. You were an absolute delight. Your hospitality was world-class and made our experience even more memorable. Exceptional service is hard to find, and you made us feel genuinely welcomed from the moment we walked in. We can't wait to come back and work our way through more of the menu. Overall, what stood out most was the variety. Whether you're craving a classic burger, something spicy, a vegetarian option, loaded fries, or a sweet treat, there's truly something for everyone.
