    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!

    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.

    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 :)

    Small green salad with the lunch order

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Great food and great service. Food was out quick after ordering and is all very delicious. There was so much that we will be eating for dinner tonight! Bookmark this for your next visit!

    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!

    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.

    Curry Leaves Bistro: 2025 December (5 of 5)…read more The holidays mean attending parties or hosting one. I was recently invited to a neighbourhood holiday party where each neighbour brings a dish - like a potluck. I decided to bring Curry Puffs. The curry puffs were a hit - they were gone in seconds, a testimonial to the deliciousness of these treats made by Curry Leaves Bistro. The host even placed the curry puffs the star and centre of the photo he sent to the neighbours. Source: Malaysian curry puffs are widely available at street food stalls, bakeries, and markets and are enjoyed as a breakfast item, an afternoon tea snack, or a late-night treat. Locally known as karipap, it is a popular, savory, half-moon-shaped pastry snack with a flaky, crispy crust and a thick, spiced filling. They are deep-fried until golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior. When eaten hot, the curry puff provides a satisfying contrast between the golden, flaky, and crispy exterior and the soft, warm, savory, and mildly spicy interior.

Every time we went there, we met old and new friends, it was like the perfect gathering place.

It was bittersweet -- the wonderful homey lunch experience, but knowing it would be the last at this location. So now we wait for the reopening at another spot, hopefully nearby. And live on with the memories of amazing dining experiences here. A big and hearty thank you to Chef Jai, Vicky, and their entire staff especially Rasul. We'll see you again in a few months!
