    Khao Soi curry and crispy pork belly to go
    Denise M.

    Was in the area getting my car fixed and was craving thai food. Saw this place on yelp and came in, was greeted so kindly when I came in from the woman up front. She asked if it was my first time and I said yes, so immediately she said for me to try all the curries, which I really appreciated because I typically just order yellow curry since it's the only one i've ever ordered. So I really liked that I had the chance to try all of them because I get scared to order something new that I might not like. I got the Khao Soi curry which the woman said it was her favorite curry and I really liked it too! I got it with crispy pork belly and rice. It's such a warm comforting meal. I never heard of this curry at any other thai places I been so it was nice. I like how you can customize your bowl. She recommended the egg noodles so when I come back I can't wait to try that because I was craving rice today so I opted for rice instead. I loved the cilantro with it actually I wish there was a bit more. I also ordered a thai tea and I liked that as well. Overall would come back especially for the service. She seemed to recognize most of her customers, she just seems really nice and passionate for her work. Prices are pretty typical for thai food. Can't wait to come back. I didn't get to eat inside, but it looked really cute inside, so i'll wanna try to dine in next time and maybe try an appetizer too :)

    Thai papaya salad

    Fun concept but the proteins and way dishes were served disappointed us. Upon entering, you get to sample each of their curries. This is great for allowing you to make an informed choice you know you'll enjoy. You pick a protein, curry, starch base, and any additional items you'd like to add. However, we wish there was more protein included as there is a lot of the base (like rice or noodles) relative to the rest of the dish. Being served all in one bowl also means that the base soaks up the curry. This worked for the noodles but wasn't great for the rice. Those who like to control how much curry goes with the rest of the dish should get it on the side. We were also not a fan of the mango sticky rice. The rice and mango were okay, but the crunchy bits (I think crispy mung bean) detracted from the dish. Each bite had incredibly hard bits, almost like large seeds, that were unlike any texture I've had added to mango sticky rice. This is a fun concept and the food is good, but pay attention to how the dishes are served or you may have a less than ideal visit.

    First time visiting. I rate this a 4 and I will share why. 1. The flavors are good! Green papaya salad, spicy cucumbers and massaman curry were all very enjoyable. 2. The atmosphere is chill with bossa type music in the background. The shop is relatively small but once I was seated I didn't even notice. The large store front window provides plenty of natural light. 3. They have friendly service! They provided us with taste samples of all the curry options. 4. I'll stick my two downside points here... parking is very limited. I feel they deserve more parking, but it also makes for a great takeout. As a girly that loves spicy food, I wish there spice levels were a little hotter. My medium spice felt much more like a mild. Overall I recommend. Especially if you are in the area or if it's on your way home. I think it lends itself to being a good takeout spot.

    Cococurry is still as delicious as ever! They updated their menu & made it much clearer and easier to understand for both new & returning customers. I also love that they let you sample every curry before choosing because each one has its own distinct & delicious flavor. The service is always top notch, super attentive, friendly, & quick!

    AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!! CoCoCurry has been on my list of places to try since they opened last year, but I just made it there for the first time this week. All I can say is I'm disappointed that I put it off for so long because they're now one of my favorite spots in SD! This place is truly a hidden gem. CoCoCurry is a build-your-own Thai curry spot where you choose between six curries, a base, and a protein. There are so many options that it was hard to choose, but I went with the khao soi curry medium spice with rice as my base and crispy chicken thigh as my protein. Let me just say - they are generous with the portions and don't skimp on the protein. The khao soi curry was PERFECT - sweet, savory, tangy, and spicy. The crispy chicken was well seasoned and crispy. I truly enjoyed every bite of my meal. If it's your first time, they'll give you samples of each curry. I also tried the mango sticky rice which was delicious too. The service was also amazing too. I'm not sure if the woman who helped me is also the owner but she was one of the kindest people I've ever met. Although I ordered to go, you can also dine in. The space is not huge but there's a hour 10 tables and very nice. There is a parking lot but very small. I can't wait to go back and will be going at least once a month now that I know how delicious this spot is!

    Marinated Steak Strips and a side of steamed broccoli
    Shin C.

    We came here on a whim and were warmly welcomed by the proprietor, Lita. Parking is a bit tight as the lot isn't very big but we were able to find a spot. Lita welcomed us and let us taste test all the curries. It was very good and we had a hard time deciding which flavor to get. We appreciated being able to taste the curry before ordering as it made us excited to come here again in the future for the other flavors. You can tell the curry is made with quality ingredients as it was robust and flavorful. It was of a good thickness, not watery at all. My group ordered out and as I wasn't very hungry, I kept mine for the later. I ordered the marinated steak strips in the Massaman curry (my #1 recommendation) with egg noodles and side of steamed broccoli. When I finally had my dish, the meat was tender and not overcooked, even after microwaving. The steamed broccoli was standard fare but the noodles were really good. The marinated steak strips were thin but there was a good amount. The only complaint my group had was there was not enough curry. It was sent home in cup - like the kind you'd get for a small cup of soup. At the restaurant, we could see they gave much more curry on the plate than what was given for takeout. It made our dish rather dry and lacking, but I found a way around it by dipping my noodles and beef in the cup. I recommend doing this if you get takeout. I suggest the owner increase the amount of curry given with takeout by using a bigger container. That's the only reason for the 4 stars. Price was reasonable.

    Small parking lot with only a handful of spaces. In a kind of dicey part of town. When you enter, they like you to try all the different curries before you decide. Everything is customizable, including your starch, protein and additional items you would like with your curry. You can also add a side of various small dishes like green papaya salad, tom yum soup and others. My friends wanted to try this place. Great flavors and service! We had a large group and some food was served Luke warm or cold. We told our server who replaced the cold food items. I got medium spicy Khao soi with crispy fish over egg noodles. It was not that spicy at all but I was able to add extra chili to it. Overall we all enjoyed our meals and would return.

    A MUST GO-TO FIR CURRY OR SAUCY DISHES! My husband and I came here on the seven day evening. (We were trying a new restaurant in the college area, but found out it was a ghost kitchen.) While looking for a place for dinner nearby, I stumbled across this gem of a place. Parking is tight (small parking lot), but we manage to get a spot. We were greeted as we entered and were offered to sample the curries being offered. It was a small taste on a tiny pink spoon, but don't underestimate the flavors. It was all tasty! I love that there were quite a bit of options between the flavors of sauces, base, and proteins (they even have tofu). A great quick serve place! I ordered the grilled chicken with egg noodles and Khao Soi sauce and optional veggies. My husband ordered the brown rice with grilled chicken and Massaman sauce with broccoli. All were delicious. If you love curry or sauces (I'm a saucer kinda girl), make this place your next meal.

    A hidden gem in City Heights!! I'm really hoping they continue to get good business and can expand to a larger space soon! - PARKING - Basically non-existent... there's 1-3 cramped spots right outside the shop but otherwise you might have to drive to the neighboring streets and walk over. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - Similar to the parking situation, the interior of the shop is just as cramped. There's a narrow walkway that leads you to the counter where the staff welcomed us very warmly. She asked if it was our first time visiting, and because it was, she led us through a curry sampler taste test! She gave us small spoons of each curry so that we could make a more informed decision, which we really appreciated! The restaurant only holds about 5-6 tables, most of which only seat 2 people. I wouldn't plan to bring more than 4 people here, otherwise you run the risk of not being seated. - FOOD - Khao Soi: I love Khao Soi so when I saw they had one, I was very excited to try it! After the initial sampling, I was sold! I ordered it with the egg noodles and the fried chicken thigh. The fried chicken thigh was more reminiscent of a chicken tender rather than an actual leg/thigh piece. Still, everything about the dish was delicious! I also got to try my best friend's Penang Curry which she got with Chicken Breast. We both loved the Penang and Khao Soi curry the most, so this was also yummy to me. Her dish came with green beans and bell peppers as well. - OVERALL - Such a hole-in-the-wall and amazing small business! I really do hope they can expand in the future so it won't be as hard to visit them!

    This is my new favorite Thai spot! I'm so glad I got to try them out and I'll be a regular here for sure - parking is tiny and there's only a few spots in the small plaza - the owner is so so friendly and welcoming! She gave us a sampling of each curry which was so helpful as we ordered online and were debating between which curry to choose. Now I know which ones I would want to try next time! (1) fried fish fillets with green curry in egg noodles - such a yummy combo, the fish had a light crisp and light salt and pepper seasoning, green curry was sharp and bright and the egg noodles soaked all the goodness in (2) duck leg with khao soi curry in egg noodles - a hit as well! Duck was tender, juicy, and flavor. This curry was slightly richer and deeper in flavor (3) drunken noodle with shrimp - the shrimp was such a good choice here, it was plump and fresh, it could use a little more seasoning but paired with noodles it was great - noodles were good as well! Chewy and not too mushy

    One of the cutest, well maintained, and quiet establishments in the area! The vibes are hole in the wall but also a hidden gem, and the food and service is phenomenal. The owner will personally give you samples of all the curries before you sit down so you know exactly what you're getting. All of them are super good, hearty, and flavorful. I personally love the panang curry with the grilled shrimp-- the shrimp are fresh and large and very juicy. This is our second time back, and will definitely be back again and again.

    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.

Super flavorful, fresh, with the perfect amount of wasabi. The crispy baby crab was savory and easy to eat, especially since you're eating the whole crab, shell and all. The curry in the braised beef panang was so addicting, I couldn't stop eating it. The crab fried rice was tasty and filling. For dessert we got the mango sticky rice. The mangoes were fresh and sweet. Overall pretty standard but still yummy. Service was friendly, helpful and attentive. All the food came out in the timely manner. The vibe of the restaurant is casual but can be a little dressy for a nice date. Overall I definitely recommend a try here. Beautiful presentation with all the food and drinks while still being delicious.
