Phenomenal! We came here because so many of my fellow Yelpers recommended it. Did not disappoint. I love Panang curry and this one was amazing ! Staff was friendly and we were able to walk in as a group of 5 and be seated fairly quickly. The food came out quickly and was very hot. It tasted so good, I'd definitely come back here again. Highly recommend
We have eaten here numerous times. Whenever we have friends visiting from out of town we bring them here for delicious & authentic Thai food! They never disappoint! Love the rustic decor and service is always top notch! As long as they continue to serve their delectable dishes consistently we will always bring family & friends here
First time trying Thai food in Temecula area and Eggplants was the best choice! They already had a line waiting outside before 5:00pm - that's when you know it's outstanding! I arrived a little after 5:00pm and my party of 7 on a Saturday night was seated immediately. Their dining area is very spacious and they do not crowd the tables close together which is a plus. The service was quick and attentive, and the food did not take too long to come out. Here's a breakdown of the items ordered: Tom Kha - mild spicy. Although the sourness was there, the coconut milk was too potent. I felt that they could've add way less so the flavor of the sourness and spice came through more. This was the least favorite of the party, but I would just try the Tom Yum soup next time. I really like my tom kha soups with fish; however, they only had meat or seafood options. Pad Thai - outstanding dish and flavor profile is on point! I actually love they didn't add bean sprouts but did have a spoonful of crushed peanuts on the side to mix in with the noodles. The Pad Thai was slightly spicy and savory. The noodles were a perfect texture and I would love to order their pad thai again! Rad Na - Flat, wide noodles are my favorite and they got this dish down! It's a great balance with plenty of gravy but there were too less noodles. It was drenched in gravy and I wish there were more noodles to soak it up but the flavor really was perfection! Three Chili Swai Fish Filet/Panang Salmon - not sure if I got the name correct, but this was a protein entree. The fish was battered and biting into it was airy and light. The chili sauce on time reminded of a sweet and sour. It came with rice automatically and this was a rice thief. I loved it! Another rice thief was the panang salmon! The curry was super good, I could drink it. Kidding but not really. The salmon was generous although a bit dry but dipping it in the panang solved it. Came with an abundant of veggies too and CAN.NOT.GO.WRONG. Drunken Noodle - Flat, wide noodles and it's a staple for me to try at every Thai restaurant that offers it. Verdict? I loved it!!! Will definitely order it again. Mild made the spice level super comfortable and the dish was very umami in every bite. Thai Tea - too sweet! Price is decent. Quick service. Great food. Comfortable seating. Close to the casino! What more can you ask for?
We've eaten here a few times. Enough to know it's amazing! The food and service are top notch. Sadly, the location is tucked away in a little strip mall just south of Pechanga resort. If you get distracted by the lights of Pechanga, you'll undoubtedly miss it. We've enjoyed so many different meals here. Started with the Tom Yum or Tim Kha. Both excellent. We've also enjoyed the fresh spring rolls or fried egg rolls. For entrees, we've enjoyed various curries, Fish Three Flavors and the Thai Basil dish with either tofu or chicken. Can't forget about the Khao Soi Noodles. Whatever you do, don't skip out on dessert. The fried banana cheesecake is to die for! They often sell out, it's that good! Keep on Yelp'n!
Thai Food Tasting Party: 12 People, 12 Entrees, and Awesome company!!! 12 of us descended upon this Thai spot like a squad of culinary Avengers, each armed with an entree and a dream. It was a full-on food swap meet... we each ordered one dish and passed it around like it was a sacred artifact. I personally went with the Pad See Ew with tofu because I enjoy wide noodles and making good life choices (naw FR, i just like tofu in my thai food). Now, I only got a tablespoon of everyone else's food (rude, but fine... tbh i am super picky and prefer my food made a certain way), yet somehow managed to confirm: everything was good. Most importantly--no fish sauce flood! You know it's a good Thai place when your dish tastes flavorful without smelling like Poseidon's cologne. Service? Snappy and friendly. I'll definitely try other entrees from here, when I'm back home. Company is always great. I love hanging out w these girls who enjoy food tasting as much as I do.
Yum, yum! Janet T. was so right, the food here is so delicious! I came in with a big group of beautiful yelp ladies and ordered several dishes to share & try. My favorites were surprisingly things I don't normally order. The cashew chicken & the chow mein. The pad si ew was one of my top favs too. But honestly everything was delicious and flavorful. I loved it so much I almost came back for dinner. I cannot wait to come back and try everything on the menu. Service was great, food came out fast, & lots of easy parking.
UPDATED REVIEW 3 YEARS later!!! We are still coming here at least 2 times a month... Their food is still consistently great! We went to President Thai in Pasadena for CHRISTMAS LUNCH and it does not even come close to Eggplants Thai CUISINE quality... PAD THAI CHICKEN: Tasted amazing right off the wok while dining in. You get a nice smoky aroma and a balanced flavor of sweet, tangy & salty. You can add your own spiciness with the condiments ;) TOM KHA FIRE POT: Coconut milk soup that has a similar flavor to TOM YUM. It's so rich and creamy. We order this every time we eat here! YEN TA FO: very RARE street vendor dish in Thailand. The pink color comes from the fermented bean paste... The soup usually includes tofu, shrimp, fish balls, calamari, and wide rice noodles... THE UNIQUE FLAVOR of the soup is sweet, sour, and a little spicy, with a funky umami-rich sauce!!!! I DARE ALL FOODIE ADVENTUROUS to try! It's one of the BEST things you can ever try once in a life time ;) ROCK ON & WE LOVE YOU EGGPLANTS THAI CUISINE
Was craving some good Thai food and saw some great reviews here so thought we'd give it a try. Small quaint setup and not really good for larger groups. They only had two servers with a full house but the staff did their best and some patience was needed while waiting for the food but it was worth the wait. The only dish that was off a tad was the chicken pad Thai noodles. It was quite sweet for some reason. Tue dessert of mango sticky rice was very tasty and The rest of the food was quite good and I would come back again.
First time here on a Friday night . Got seated right away luckily before the rush. Relaxing ambiance. Fast and courteous service. Delicious yellow chicken curry and tomyun soup. Shrimp fried rice seasoned well. Overall a great experience. Definitely will come back on our next visit since is so close to the casino. We drove all the way from Long Beach .
After a gorgeous drive through Carlsbad, I couldn't have asked for a better spot to unwind than Eggplant Thai Cuisine. Carlsbad itself is pure magic--those stunning beaches with golden sand, the endless stretch of the Pacific sparkling under the sun, and the laid-back coastal charm that just pulls you in. We'd spent the morning cruising along the shoreline, soaking in the beauty of the waves crashing and the salty breeze, and by the time we were ready to eat, I was craving something comforting. Thai food is my go-to when I can't find Indian food--it's like a warm hug in every bite--and this place delivered in the best way. We stopped by around 2:00 PM, and it wasn't too crowded, which was perfect after a busy morning. The restaurant is wonderfully spacious, with big windows letting in tons of natural light that made the whole place feel bright and airy. It's simple but pleasant, with a relaxed vibe that matches the chill energy of Carlsbad. You can tell it's a spot where locals and visitors alike come to enjoy a good meal without any fuss. We ordered the tofu curry and the panang curry, and oh my goodness, both were out of this world. The tofu curry was creamy and rich, with that perfect balance of spice and smoothness that just melts in your mouth. The tofu was cooked just right--soft but not mushy--and soaked up all the flavors of the coconutty broth. Then there was the panang curry, which was a total standout. It had this deep, nutty warmth from the peanuts, a little kick of heat, and a velvety texture that made every bite pure bliss. The portions were solid, too, leaving me full and happy without feeling overstuffed. Paired with some fluffy rice, it was exactly the kind of comfort food I needed after a day of beach-hopping. The service was friendly and quick, which added to the whole experience. It's not the cheapest Thai spot I've been to, but for the quality and the setting, it felt just right. After driving through Carlsbad's picturesque streets and stunning coastline, sitting down at Eggplant Thai Cuisine felt like the perfect way to cap off the day. It's a little slice of comfort in a beautiful town, and I'd happily come back next time I'm exploring this area. If you're craving Thai food that hits all the right spots, this place is a gem!

This place is a hidden gem! If you are looking for a great Thai food restaurant This is the place!! You won't be disappointed! Thai cuisine is one of my favorites and I'm very picky when it comes to a Thai food coz I have lots of really great Thai friend chefs And this place is by far one of the best in town!! As soon as you enter the restaurant it gives you a great vibes from the owner name "JA" who is in charge of the kitchen but taking care of the dining too and her mom being the main chef. Definitely a place to enjoy a delicious Thai food And I can't wait to go back and try more of their food in their menu and bring the rest my family Thanks again Ja for excellent food and service! 5 stars over all!! read more

I love Thai food! And I cannot believe I've never tried Khao Soi! This is the first time Khao Soi stuck out to me reading through the menu. It's a northern thai dish so maybe it's not sold everywhere. It has similar consistency of the other currys but does not taste like the other currys I've had! It's hard to explain but if you love curry, you'll love this also! I ordered the Beef Khao Soi Noodle (spicy level 3 out of 5) with an extra bowl of rice. Khao Soi Noodle: Crispy fried egg toodles as one of the toppings made the curry taste more nutty and gave me the crunch I like within my soup. Cilantro always tastes refreshing! I added the chopped onion into the soup as well which had the crunch and yummy flavor throughout my bites that went really well together with the curry. I ate my noodles with the pickled greens. Curry is on the sweeter side but not overbearing. Inside of the restaurant was super neat and clean. You can hear jazz in the background so it was relaxing. Cute decorations and lights. Staff members were super friendly and kind! Bathroom was super clean and nice! That's how you know the kitchen is super clean too! They even have a baby diaper changing table. They have take out option! Or other options for third party delivery. This place is also in walking distance from Pechanga Casino and Resort! read more

Food has gone down. I made an order at 6:31pm last night and you had me standing there waiting @ 7:18pm. NOT OK. There's no room for people with to go orders to comfortably sit and wait. You have no manners or considertaion. Zero compensation or apology for having me stand there and wait. Your food is now nasty compared to when you first opened. read more

Went here a while back & wasn't wowed or overly disappointed...it wasn't overly memorable. I was looking for Thai and my favorite place had a long wait so decided to give this place a try again. It wasn't long before I remembered what I didn't like about this place. The food is grossly overpriced. You're paying premium price for an average tasting, slightly smaller portioned dish. And there were tree trunk sized stems of basil. I always thought it was supposed to be "leaves" not branches. There are better places that serve better tasting food or larger proportions or cheaper or all of the above. My last visit will be my last visit. If my favorite place is slammed again I'll go Chinese. read more
I've been seeing this thai resto everytime me and my wife would go to harrah's rincon. It is located beside Pechanga Casino. I've always wanted to try this location since I love thai food. This morning we had a chance to have our lunch in this place. And I am glad we did. When we came here, it wasn't busy so were seated quickly. We came here also with a friend. The place looks so nice and very clean but it's kinda small place. Their menu is not extensive which I actually like. Big menus only confuses me what to order. Anyway, Let's go to the main attraction. Their food. To start with, we ordered their famous shrimp tom yum soup and then 4 different main dish, pineapple fried rice, crying tiger, pad see ew and garlic and pepper seafood combo. Lastly for our dessert we had the mango sticky rice. What I think? They are all equally pretty good! Not bad at all! Food has a balanced taste. Not overpowering or salty and bland. Just the right amount of seasoning and flavor. We all loved them. I just wished the mangoes were sweeter. Serving though is kinda on the smaller side with their price tag. I feel that they are a dollar more expensive than other thai restos that I've been to. But that's ok, you can't go wrong with their delicious food. and that's most important. Staff are really nice here. Good job. read more

Happened upon this Thai place when I checked out a new breakfast spot. And boy, I'm glad I did! It's a quaint little hole-in-the-wall with very attentive staff. I had to order my usual so I can accurately compare. The pad Thai was delicious, with the right amount of sauce and spice! The spring rolls were fresh and the peanut dipping sauce was thick and flavorful. I ordered jasmine tea, and I never once had to ask for more hot water. The cup was always refilled as if by magic. That was very nice, as I drink a lot with my meals and usually have to wait to hail the server for more water. They also boxed my leftovers for me instead of just giving me the box. That only happens at fine restaurants these days. I think that was very nice indeed. I can't wait to go back to try some Tom yum and satay!! read more

My Thai wife and I are back for the 8th time! This is literally are second home for amazing Thai food. Compliments to the chefs... New item: TRIPLE or 3 FLAVOR FISH is so amazing and flavorful. It's not bland so please eat with caution because it's intensely flavorful. Sweet, sour & just a tiny bit spicy. Highly recommend. New item: FRIED CHICKEN WONTONS. My favorite appetizer is finally here so I don't have to go to LA for it. Same wontons as the wonton soup. Great new appetizer. New item: PAD WOON SEN is stir-fry glass noodles or clear THAI vermicelli made from bean thread and it's gluten free. I just simply love it. We ordered it with shrimp but, you can choose your own protein. My wife and I are always happy and full every time we come here. We will be coming back again and again... read more

It's right by Pechanga casino. Went with a group of friends. Food came out together being a party of 8 and in a timely manner. I ordered the Thai iced tea, my hubby the Thai iced coffee. Drinks were tasty, and very delicious. We ordered the egg rolls for an appetizer they were really good. I forgot to take pictures. My main meal I ordered the beef pad Thai. All of our dishes were so different but tasted so good. Everyone enjoyed everything. Customer service was amazing. Love supporting local businesses . read more

This is a nice restaurant. It's small and it has like 7 tables maybe.? The service was good. The server was very friendly. We had the fried rice which was delicious and we added an extra egg. So good. The path Thai was good too. We asked for level 2 and it was spicy lol. read more
My new favorite Thai in Temecula. Not only is it conveniently located near the casino and tastefully decorated, their food is AMAZING! Our test to good Thai food is always the curries of course but also the pad see yew since it's my daughters favorite. The pad see yew we ordered was veggies only. There was a great mix of super fresh veggies mixed in with noodles cooked to perfection with just the right amount of sauce! And the FLAVOR... no need for extra spice, Chili's or soy. It was perfect as is. The yellow curry was the best blend of sweet and savory and just the right amount of heat. My mouth is watering just writing this review. I can't wait to return and sample the Tom yum soup and of course the banana fried cheesecake for desert. P.s. we were told that the recipes were from the owners mother. Hats off to you mom!! read more
Went in after seeing the open sign - I've been dying for a nearby Thai food place and I think I found it! The inside is tiny and already felt packed so I ordered to go. 20 minutes later I took my food home and it was so good! I got an order of eggrolls and it came with five, including a sweet sticky sauce. I also got a yellow curry with pork - they asked how I wanted it and I said medium and it was perfect!!!! Some places tamp down the spice, but this place is true to what you ask for. The curry comes with rice at no extra cost. The Thai iced tea was a bit sweet but overall, 5 stars. Staff was fast and friendly and I'll definitely be back very soon. read more

I love this family-owned restaurant. Medium spice Red curry was delicious. The atmosphere and the service were outstanding. Impeccable. Note - newly opened. Be patient if you are in dining and going during the prime time for lunch or dinner. They are short-staffed, and the restaurant seats up to 40-50 people max. Order take out or go-between 2-4 pm or 7-closing when it's not rush hours. read more
Super friendly staff, clean restaurant and delicious Thai food! The menu is simple and to the point with different kinds of curry and your choice of protein, served with light and fluffy rice ( not the kind that sticks to everything it touches). The chicken with red panang curry ( medium heat) had just the right amount of heat, a slow burn. The chicken with yellow curry was also delicious. The Tom Yum soup and chicken satay were completely gone and enjoyed. Support your local restaurants and they will support you! read more

Regular here all the time, some of the most fresh Thai cuisine in town. Each dish is very flavorful and they give you a lot, dishes are like sharing plates. Service here is great, they are very quick and the meals come out at a decent time. Ambiance is cozy with the dim lights and the music is very relaxing. The owner, Ja, is a sweet lady who is very passionate about her food as she cooks most of the delicious food and runs around the restaurant checking on her guests. Definitely recommend having each meal at medium level or level 3 as it provides a good spicy kick to each meal. read more
