CoCoCurry - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

CoCoCurry found a new customer! I received amazing customer service! Oh I wish I would have got her name but not only did she welcome me immediately, she asked if I wanted to try all the different curries. I sampled each one and they were absolutely delicious. I had a hard time choosing which one I wanted. I ended up choosing grilled shrimp with flat noodles and the Khao Soi Curry. I added some heat as well! This curry I was told is a northern Thai curry. I also added Thai omelet for $3 more. As soon as she put the food down I smelled the warm spices with the cilantro. The shrimp were nice size (tail on). I enjoyed every last bite and left nothing. Flavors were bold and the medium heat was perfect. So many different ways to create your food just how you like. The add on prices I feel are reasonable. CoCoCurry is small inside but the decor is amazing, the only downside is the parking. Very tight parking! I can see them opening up another location eventually. I highly recommend going and giving them a try. read more

Everything was delicious! Where do I start... the build your own curry concept is so fun. You basically go on a little curry journey before even sitting down, and it definitely wakes up your taste buds. We went with the Massaman with crispy fish fillets and rice, and the Khao Soi with grilled king mushrooms over egg noodles... flavors galore. Lita walked us through all the base and topping options, which made the experience even better and truly appreciate that extra connection. No complaints. 10 out of 10. read more

Came here on a Friday afternoon right at opening. I love Thai curry and was excited to try this place. It wasn't busy for lunch time, though several people came in to take to-go. Seemed to be quite a few first timers. There's a small parking lot with tight spots that is shared with nearby businesses like a barber and 7-Eleven. I would probably recommend just parking on the street nearby. The place had about three four tops, six two tops, and a handful of bar stool seats facing the window/ parking lot. We were greeted immediately asked if we were first-timers, and were offered samples of all their Curry sauces. All were pretty tasty and had no spice to little spice as the baseline. They take your order at your table -- pick your protein, curry, then base. Add sides (+$) or heat if you'd like. Appetizers, drinks, and some alcohol (beer & wine) options available. We ordered the chicken curry puffs - which was plated with a bit of curry sauce. Would order again. For main foods: I ordered the Khao Soi with egg noodles, grilled steak, a fried egg (+$3) with medium heat. My friend ordered the yellow curry, with crispy chicken, and vegetables (+$1: bean sprouts, cabbage and lime), and hot. Medium was explain to be one step above the heat of the samples we had. I would say it was still pretty mild, but tasty. Friend's 'hot' felt more like a 3-4 out of 10. Her plate definitely could have done with more curry, but we were otherwise pretty happy with our food. Decided to order desert - there were 3 options: Coconut ice cream with corn kernels, mango sticky rice, or a combo which combined both desserts. We opted for the combo. The ice cream was a little iced, sticky rice was tasty and warm. We thoroughly enjoyed our dessert. Service was great. It was just the one person working the front of house when we visited. She was pleasant and attentive. We would come back to eat here again. read more

The vibe is so cute coming in! Service was very welcoming and friendly :) We got to sample all of the curry before making a decision. The worker recommended the khao soi with egg noodles so I decided to get just that :O! I chose to add crispy duck leg as my protein. My partner ended up getting the pork belly with panang and rice. Both were very delicious and I can't wait to come back! read more

As soon as you walk into the establishment, you are greeted by kind staff and a vibrant esthetic. The game changer, the fact that you can taste test each curry before making a decision!!!! I have now returned 4 times, since finding this gem on Instagram. My last visit, Mother's Day. They gave us mommy's, leis and mango sticky rice. How incredibly kind and incredibly delicious. Also, they gave every inch of this restaurant so much detail. Love the vibes and the atmosphere. Please, do yourself a solid and get to Coco Curry. ASAP read more

Two things assaulted my senses the moment I walked in. The first was the girl behind the counter asked me to taste test all five of their curry. She said the khao soi was her favorite, and I was convinced into agreeing. I was also partial to the mustard flavor and fragrance. If I hadn't tasted them, I was probably going to order the massaman. They were all delicious though. Well, I did find the green curry a tad weak, but that was at least partly because I had to taste that one last. And green curry has a softer flavor to begin with. The second assault was there was some relatively loud music playing. Not super loud. Just noticeably louder than average for a restaurant, and yet, it was super relaxing. Because it was, like, some Bossa Nova cafe vocal mix. I only know that because I just could not remember what the genre was called, so I went and asked the employee about the music also. Anyways, I ordered the khao soi (hot) with rice and chicken thigh, and it was amazing. The umami of the curry impressed me a second time. The chicken and breading were both soft. The onions and fried egg also mixed in perfectly. This is easily some of the best curry I've had in San Diego so far. I also ordered a tom yum noodle soup with beef. This was also good, but not as impressive as the curry. I believe their meat is also made the same separately no matter what entree you're ordering, so the meat is not made specifically for the soup. Aside from that, the only other negative I can think of, if it can even be considered a negative, might be the location? The neighborhood outside is slightly sketchy. There was a homeless person sitting in the corner in front of the 7-eleven next door. Another homeless man with no shirt on came around the other side of the building and was hanging around in the parking lot right in front of the restaurant. The vibe of this joint really pulls you in though. Something about it feels like an oasis and encourages you forget about the outside world once you're inside. I don't believe in stuff like feng shui, but if there's any truth to it at all, I'm sure this interior design gets an A+ in it. read more

I'm not a huge fan of curry but this place made me change my mind. They have different types of curry and you can choose your base and protein. I came in with my friends when nobody else was in the restaurant so we were able to sample their different curry flavors. The girl that served us was very nice and informative because we did not know what we wanted. They have other dishes as well but the curry was the star. There's also a few selection of beer and wine. The restaurant was clean. It is a small establishment so it can get crowded and there's not a lot of parking. read more

CoCoCurry - Yellow curry with duck and brown rice - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

I have dined in and ordered out from here multiple times. Ambience is good. Small little seating section for about 5 to 6 groups. The restaurant is decorated nicely love the pops of yellows that represents curry. Service is always great when I come in. Greeted as soon as you walk in the door and promptly seated as I have not been when it's been busy the cashier offered a tasting of each curry so that we knew which one we would love the most. I have had a variety of the dishes here and they all have been phenomenal. The most recent dish I've had was the salmon with rice and the pan curry. The flavors were dancing in my mouth. Parking is shared with the others two or three stores in the plaza. It can be a bit tight. I would highly recommend. read more

CoCoCurry - GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST and TOM YUM NOODLE SOUP - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

I bookmarked this spot last year and we finally got around to dining here on Thursday for lunch at noon. Parking lot is shared with 7-11, Barbershop and Jewelry store. It feels a little sketchy on the outside but the inside feels like sunshine. We were greeted by the friendly woman behind the counter. We welcomed us warmly and clearly explained the process and other menu offerings. We got to sample all the curry sauces, it was hard to choose since they were all divine. She sat up at a table and brought over menus and water. I peeked at the menu before we arrived and had my heart set on Khao Soi with the steamed tofu, rice noodles and Papaya Salad on the side. My friend ordered Massaman with veggies and Jasmine Rice. She also got a Thai Iced Coffee Togo. Both of our meals yummy. I wish my Papaya Salad came with the fermented fish sauce. We ended up stay long after we finished lunch just chatting. There were a few other patrons dining during our visit. Definitely tempted to come back to try a different combination and may the mango and sticky rice. read more

Found this Thai curry spot near where I lived and went for dinner. If you are dining there, know the dining area is rather small. The staff are all so welcoming and helpful when it comes to the curry you want to have with your food. They even let you sample each one so you can pick the one you like best; although, they ALL were amazing, making it hard for me to choose. I ended up getting the Panaang curry with rice and a curry pastry as an appetizer. The curry pastry was filled with potatoes and other vegetables and served with a sweet and spicy sauce to dip it in. The curry was packed with flavor with a subtle kick to it as well but not overwhelming. I will definitely be making this spot a recurring dinner spot! read more

This is a such a nice little restaurant. As soon as you walk in you can see and feel the care and love this owner has put into this space. She will greet you first and have you taste her incredible curries. There are six of them. Each are delicious and unique from the others. You chose your protein, add a curry and a base. They also have other dishes as well if you don't want curry. We order the khao soi, Penang, and green curries. We had the crispy duck, salmon, and chicken. Also ordered the papaya salad. Each was delicious and we all enjoyed our dishes. We also tried the mango and sticky rice. Definitely will come back here. read more

It was our first time and we were greeted warmly. Our waitress had us try all the curry flavors and they were honestly all delicious. I've never had an experience like this before and the customer service was amazing. For my first visit I had the fried softshell crab with the khao soi and egg noodles. It was delicious and I wish my stomach was big enough to try more food but it looks like I will have to return again so I can try the other flavors and protein options. What drew me here was I wide selection of proteins on the menu and they had an Instagram story mentioning that they had softshell crab on the menu. The interior was super bright and clean. I really liked the vibe. I can't wait to try more read more

CoCoCurry - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

I love the curry flavor tour! I think this is the only Thai place I know of that allows you to sample their different types of curry before settling on the one that you want. What a unique concept! I did find it hard to pick just one bc all the curries were so good, and I liked that the staff let me try it in order of mild to hottest so that I can gauge where my tolerance was. I got the ice coffee with coconut milk and the green curry on greens with tofu. I would absolutely order these again. Very takeout friendly but we decided to dine in and the tables were almost full by the time we left. I don't know how she juggled it all but service was great even w the one front desk person balancing all the dine in and take out orders. One note is that the parking lot does get pretty cramped so to avoid the headache I would just do street parking. read more

5 of 5 Yelp review for CocoCurry! The lady staff, unfortunately I was not able to get her name :( It was our first time and she made sure we were able to taste all the curry samples so we can pick based on what we liked the most. It was really fun and nice of her. There were 3 of us and all of us 3 left with a happy tummy! Plus she even took a picture of me and Molly, my baby girl Chi. Def a place we would go back to! Xoxo Oooh, I checked their IG page - She is the owner and her name is LITA! Thank you, Lita read more

Pretty cool restaurant! It's the only Thai restaurant that I know that offers free tasting on their curry so you can taste every flavor which helps you decide which curry is the best on your liking. Their approach is also very different than most regular Thai restaurants, instead of ordering every entree individually they serve their foods in 3 steps! First: You have to pick your choice of protein. Second: You pick which curry you like best Third: You pick your base with their choices of either jasmine rice, brown rice or your type of noodles. Side dishes is optional, we ordered the omelet, it was good. The place is not big but it's cute! I love the Halloween decor. Place is clean and service is fast. read more

OMG! I'm in LOVE w/ CoCo Curry!! This spot is love at first sight! They've only been open for 5 months, but everything about this place is already perfection - from the adorable interior and warm greeting to the samples they offer of every flavor (which made my decision SO hard and helpful!). I'm so glad I got to try them all because every single flavor was amazing. My top 3: Panang Khao Soi Yellow Curry Honestly, I wanted all three - but I went with the Panang curry with jasmine rice and chicken breast, added potatoes, and a side of boiled egg. The egg was cooked perfectly, the rice portion was generous, and the potatoes were tender and flavorful. Everything tasted fresh, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully plated. I finished with the mango sticky rice, which was the perfect sweet ending - so good! Even the vibe inside was perfect: the music volume was just right and gave such a chill, cozy feel. LOVED THE PLAYLIST! I got a thai tea with coconut milk - was creamy, sweet, and absolutely to die for!! 1000/10! The owner was so kind, checked on me often, and even let me know their updated hours (closed on Mondays!). Such a sweet touch. I have no more words to say - this place truly has my heart and stomach! I'm already planning my next visit. Heads up: Parking is in a small structure, so just a note for anyone visiting - it's a tighter setup but still manageable, and the restaurant is handicap accessible, which is great. Totally worth coming out for this spot! read more

CoCoCurry - Chicken curry with Massaman was amazing!!!! - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

Small restaurant but good food. Initially parking can be a challenge due to the lot size and being next to a 7-11 but once you get inside, you are greeted with friendly service and a fun environment. This was our first time here but was recommended from a friend and they did not disappoint. If you are unsure what to get, they will let you sample the curry flavors to help your decision. After having khao soi recently in Chiang Mai Thailand we had to try the one here. It was tasty, had a good consistency and was nicely presented. We also got one "pad see you" and mango sticky rice for dessert. They all were packed with good flavor and were not overly spicy. The portions were a little on the small side but overall quality was good. Great spot to check out if you're in the neighborhood. read more

I finally get the hype! I didn't understand the hype around Cococurry until now -- and now I'm officially hooked. This is my second time coming in, and everything has been consistently delicious. The curry is rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced -- plus I love that you can taste test the curry before ordering! It really helps you pick your favorite spice level and flavor. The service is friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the food comes out hot and fresh every time. The crispy pork belly deserves its own shoutout -- super tender inside with that perfect crunch on the outside. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and go. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

What an awesome concept right here in SD! If you look at my previous reviews I mentioned that I'm on the hunt to find the best Thai restaurant but I didn't think I would find it at coco curry. You can try all their curries before you choose. Even though it will only make your choice harder because all of them taste amazing. We got duck, chicken, mushroom with a massaman, khao soi, and panang, everything tasted great. We will definitely be back to try all the item. As of 02/07/2026 soft shelf crab is a special while supplies last so go get yours! read more

Think smaller scale, curry bar similar to chipotle with selection of various sauces, toppings, and a base! We loved that the server allowed tastings of different curry sauces before picking one to buy. All the flavors are actually unique and great tasting. That's not overly salty as well. Highly recommend getting the green curry or the massaman curry! All the sauces a little bit on the thinner side but it's great to soak up your noodle or rice option. For the carb conscious, you can just get vegetables as your base. There are also vegan options. When you pick any additional sides for an additional cost, it comes out to about a small serving size cup portion. Probably get one or two and share with a buddy to get more variety. We did enjoy the spicy cucumber and the tofu. Didn't care too much for the edamame. There are different spice levels and you can definitely ask for additional spicy chili peppers on the side to sprinkle on if you're sitting there and eating. Portions are decent if you're super hungry otherwise you can also split with a friend! As for drinks, it's totally cool that they can do a Thai milk tea with coconut milk. Definitely gives it a different twist! The location is quite unsuspecting in a tiny strip mall. It looks almost like a hole in the wall place, but then again you know that it's good! There's a couple spots in the strip mall otherwise you may need to find some street parking. Only a sad part is that they close around 8:30Pm This is probably gonna be my go to Thai curry spot from here on out! read more

Absolutely loved this place. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without feeling rushed. The ambiance is cozy and cute. And the food... wow. The curries are bursting with rich, layered flavors perfectly balanced between spice, creaminess, and freshness. You can really taste the quality and care in every dish. We got the crispy chicken with Massaman curry and oyster mushroom with Khao Soi was our choices and it did not dis If you're looking for Thai curry that's deeply flavorful, paired with great service and a lovely atmosphere, this spot is a must-visit.

CoCoCurry - Curry sauces - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

I actually really the concept of a BYO curry bowl. When I saw this on IG, I had to give it a try. Parking lot can be a little challenging since there's a shared parking area that's shared with the 7-11 in this small strip mall. They had several curry sauces to choose from and I was able to try ones I wasn't familiar with. I actually ended up picking the Khao Soi curry. It was so good! I'm usually a panang curry girl, so I'm glad that there are other curries out there that are substitute worthy. For the protein, I chose the Crispy Chicken thigh, which is better imo than the pork belly that my friend got. The chicken was juicy, perfectly crisp, and seasoned just right. As the side, I decided to try the spicy cucumber salad, which was just okay. I also tried the papaya salad and this was also just okay. I like the aesthetic of the place gave nods to its Thai cuisine. Plenty of seating and the cashier was helpful with explaining the different sauces and how the ordering process works. Since no one was there, there was no wait! Not sure how busy it gets on the weekends since I went during the week. I would def give this place another try when I'm in the area. read more

Was recommended this place by a friend and stopped by to try it. Since it was my first visit the hostess had me sample their four curries so I can get an idea of what I liked. I ended up choosing the green curry as it had a nice spicy undertone. The menu allows you to choose a curry, protein, rice or noodles and sides. I opted for the chicken breast which ended up being a nice large cut but super soft and juicy. The jasmine rice was also super tasty and the combination of the green curry at medium spice level with the chicken was amazing. I also ordered a side of spicy cucumbers which were garlicky and spicy and went well with the main dish. For the drink I chose the home made limeade which was limey and sweet, delicious. A bit out of the way for me, but I can easily see myself making a drive down here again to try another curry. Highly recommended. read more

Oh my goodness gracious, everyone needs to come here ASAP. This place is amazing!! Upon entrance, you will be greeted with samples of the different curry sauces before you commit to the one you want. It's so hard to choose though because I kid you not, they're all so good! During our trip here, I chose the green curry with crispy chicken thigh + Thai corn salad, & my partner got the khao soi with grilled steak + Thai papaya salad. Wowwww, I went to Thailand for the first time this year & the curry here is truly up to par with the food from the motherland. This place gave me such cute & peaceful vibes like in Chiang Mai & the people who work here were so hospitable and sweet too. The ambiance of the restaurant is also so clean & adorable & I love the jazzy cute music, which also really reminded me of the cafes in Chiang Mai! I am beyond impressed with this restaurant & definitely want to come back to get the other flavors as an entree (e.g., massaman, panang, yellow curry, & etc.). I LOVE YOU COCOCURRY!

This place recently open and I finally had the opportunity to try it. The location is a little hole in the wall and parking isn't that great. Parking is in a small plaza in the corner of the red light. Inside is pretty nice and very clean. The style is kind of like to go food where the curry is behind a glass and you pick what you like. You can try all the curry flavors before you purchase. There are a couple of tables if you choose to dine in. Food: you select your protein, carbs, curry and then sides to complete your full meal. The crispy pork belly and fried chicken were pretty scrumptious so highly recommend. As for curry....they were all pretty good. The green curry had a little kick to it for those that like a little spice in their life. The portion for the sides were pretty big. Highly recommend the spicy cabbage. Disclaimer for the ones that list "crab" included in there, it's the fermented crab pieces not a whole soft shell crab or regular crab pieces. If you are not familiar with fermented things then I wouldn't get it. It def wasn't for me! The Kao soi curry and the yellow curry were delicious. Kao soi had more flavor, it was sweet and salty at the same time so it went perfectly with the crispy fried proteins. The Yellow curry was not as flavorful but great if you eat it over rice. The mango sticky rice was great but the price was a tad bit costly for its worth. It came in a tiny 1 cup container and portions wasn't very big for something that cost $10 Overall this place is great if you are craving curry and don't want to wait too long to be served. read more

Where do I start.. I've only eaten here 3times .. each time I go, I pick a different meal and each time the protein is seriously a winner! I have no idea how they do it, the seasoning, the batter they use, chicken, pork, crab, anything they deep fry.. I think that's the cooks skill . Fried chicken and curry it's been awhile since I last visit, and I rarely Yelp reviews.. it has to be really really good for me to yelp.. New to the menu is soft shell crab protein of choice. I've had "soft shell crab before at the buffets" could not eat the whole thing since the shell was still hard to chew or swallow, This crab, was seriously.. flavored, soft but had a crunch outter layer and soft inside, tempura batter was seriously perfection For the curry that goes along with the protein, I picked panang,. I requested the curry on the side, so visually it's not at its best potential.. trust me the flavor and everything speaks for its self! The Thai coffee!! It's like Vietnamese coffee but without the bitterness and the sweetness is well balanced with coconut cream/milk and not super sweet like condense milk. Must try! Also got the pad see ew with crispy chicken. An egg omelette and of course The mango sticky rice. The rice is pandan flavor, not strong or over powering. It was perfect. Since mango is not in season, expect them to be alittle tart, which I loved since it paired well with the pandan sweet sticky rice The couple as always are welcoming! Very attentive to every one of their customers! Will need to come back to try their ice cream! read more

A Thai Food Paradise for Micromanagers... Who Know What They Like Coco Curry is not just a restaurant. It is a place where a person can finally take control of their meal the way the universe clearly intended. You walk in and suddenly you are the conductor of a very fragrant orchestra. You choose the rice or the noodles. You choose the curry. You choose the protein. You choose the sides. You choose the spice level. By the time you are done choosing you feel like you should get a tax deduction for the labor. It is a beautiful thing. A little overwhelming maybe, but in a good way. Like a well stocked deli counter. You want rice. They say of course. Which kind. You want noodles. They say wonderful. How thick. How soft. How much. You pick your curry like you are selecting a grandchild for a photo. Red. Green. Panang. Massaman. All lovely. All ready to make you feel alive again. Protein. They have plenty. Sides. Endless. Spice level. They will let you go mild medium or the kind of hot that makes you question your life choices and your dental work. It is a game of mix and match where the only real limit is how many belt buckle holes you have left before you need to stand up and take a little walk. Every bowl feels like something you created with your own two hands. You do not just eat here. You build. And the service. Let me tell you. These people treat you like you matter. They look at you with gratitude like you personally kept the lights on. They remember you. They guide you. They make you feel like a mensch for simply ordering lunch. Coco Curry is comfort and control and curry all in one. Five stars. If you leave without feeling satisfied and a little proud of yourself you did not do it right. read more
