    Scallop Zapp
    cadence p.

    Service was really really good. Food on the other hand is pretty mid. We had the scallop zapp, crying sirloin steak and the kasoy duck that everyone seems to get. The kasoy duck was good.. but the kasoy broth was lacking flavor. I had high hopes for this dish as it seems like lots of people get it. But it was the best dish we had between the three we ordered. For the crying sirloin steak, I had expected a much spicier and more sour sauce that came with it. It's just steak with a sweet and sour sauce in my opinion. Scallop zapp was good, just wish they had put more lime juice and I think that would definitely elevated the dish completely. Overall, I think this place is pretty mid. I would rather go to Sala Thai for thai food over this place.

    Kow Soi duck - A must
    Amando B.

    The place is tiny in a tiny plaza! Service is always great every time we eat here but there can be a long wait before you get a table. Get the duck for sure, it's a must. So good!!! Prices are a little bit pricey but it's expected of a Thai restaurants. The price for the food is worth it.

    A relatively new Thai restaurant making a splash in the Union City food scene! Tucked into a strip mall just blocks away from the BART station, Kapow Thai Eatery has generated a lot of interest from locals with their photogenic, yet delicious dishes authentically representing Thai cuisine. The parking lot is tight during peak times but this strip mall isn't frequented much aside from a few shops and has good churn. You'll find a spot most definitely but the restaurant itself isn't huge so a short wait may be expected. We came for an early dinner and they had plenty of tables for us to choose from. Most of their tables fit small to medium sized groups but larger groups may need to consider reserving in advance. As we stepped in, the staff greeted us and sat us with waters and menus. There were two menus, one for the food and one for the drinks. Both are pretty simple to peruse through but the food menu doesn't have any pictures. The descriptions are pretty good at previewing what you'll get for each dish but I found asking the staff or referring to pictures online did more justice. If in doubt, their chef specials are solid options, but being a Thai eatery, curries and duck are likely your best bet. The drink menu on the other hand does have some pictures and has a few specialty drinks for the sweet toothed folks. Naturally, we ordered a few items to give this place a good try. Gui chai thod (chive cake) - hands down one of the best appetizers I've had of this variety and for me, a must get each time. Each piece is bite sized and can be skewered with the wooden pick they give you. The crispy exterior pairs exceptionally well with the chewiness of its center. The smell, taste, and texture of this dish with the dipping sauce as an added component makes this simple, yet complex chunk of veggie infused mochi a fantastic first impression. Tom kha - creamy soup heavy with lemongrass fragrance and flavor. You have the option to add protein (chicken, tofu, shrimp, seafood) to make this a filling bowl. It comes out hot and maintains its temperature quite well! Kow Soi Duck - succulent slices of duck served atop noodles and intended to be smothered or dipped in the delicious curry. This dish was hearty, presented beautifully deconstructed, and flavorful. A bit pricey for a bowl of noodles but quality is there. Crab fried rice - big portion of fried rice with big chunks of crab. Another hearty dish perfect for sharing and can easily feed 4-6 people with seconds to spare. As the menu indicates, this dish is big on umami. Thai tea - I opted for no ice as I'm not a fan and despite no ice to dilute the flavor, it wasn't too overly sweet and satisfied my craving. Pink Thai milk - unless you're a fan of peptobismol, I would stay away from this despite its beautiful, radiant color The staff were wonderful in communicating with us on what to expect with flavors, ingredients, portion size, sweetness (regarding drinks) and methods of consumption. They all had smiles and were quick to clear our tables. Overall, Kapow Thai Eatery has made a mark in this small city and I hope it's here to stay with its authentic Thai dishes and exceptional quality of food and service. The prices certainly reflect these qualities but as a novice of the Thai cuisine, this place was worth a visit and many more in the future, just perhaps once in a long while due to the prices of eating out nowadays. Although we didn't venture into big spices this time around, they do have the spices to kick some dishes up a notch. The sirloin fried rice looked good and I hope to try it next time. For those looking for something new and fresh to eat, let Kapow show you the way!

    Larb wrap
    Jeankaylyn E.

    Came to Kapow for my birthday dinner to close out the month Ordered the Sirloin Nam Tok (part of the new menu), Larb Wrap, Thai green & pink tea, and mango sticky rice. The Sirloin Nam Tok came grilled with Thai herbs, toasted rice powder, dried chili, kaffir lime leaves, and a house-made tamarind sauce--but the meat was pretty tough to slice and chew. Wouldn't order again. The Larb Wrap (minced pork with roasted rice powder, chili flakes, citrus, herbs, and fried garlic) had good flavor but felt like it was missing something. Both the green and pink Thai teas were overly sweet--the pink one tasted like Pepto Bismo.. Mango sticky rice was decent, but nothing memorable. We ordered a papaya salad to go and we did really like that one. Overall, kinda underwhelming. I'd rate it a 2/5.

    Yellow curry and crispy Chili pork belly. Oh, and some rice. Dang right.

    Okay I just found my favorite Thai restaurant. I met the owner, and Jaz and were already like family. The food, from appetizer to main course and dessert were outstanding. The restaurant is a bit smaller, but they're dynamite. The way they decorated, the mural, awesome. Appetizer: crispy garlic chili pork belly. This was absolutely insane good. Don't be foolish. Get it. Dinner: Gang karee (yellow curry). Gang gang. Dessert: I Tim Bo ran (coconut ice cream with pastry, fruit, nuts). Amazing. Everything is incredibly fresh here. The cucumbers snap when bitten. The mango is so light sweet. It's like they know how to pick the best ingredients. You'll find them in a small strip mall. Don't blink, you'll miss the dynamite. Circle back. It's well worth it.

    Chicken Satay
    Eilien L.

    First time at Kapow Thai Eatery and honestly... we were not ready The food? Straight up bomb Our top picks: the steak, crispy pork belly (no weird smell at all ), and chicken satay. Everything was super flavorful without being greasy, which is rare for dishes like these. The papaya salad was crazy fresh and balanced out the meat perfectly. Also loved how the spice levels actually made sense--everything paired so well with each protein instead of just being spicy for no reason. Already planning our next visit to try the pad Thai, pad see ew, and pork belly over rice Vibe check: cute spot, nice ambience, but kinda small. They open at 4PM and fill up FAST, so definitely make a reservation if you can. Overall: 5/5 This place is a low-key gem

    I've been to Kapow Thai Eatery several times this past month; it became my favorite Thai restaurant in the area. The staff was friendly and accommodating; they even started to remember us, which was nice. The restaurant is small and can feel cramped when they are busy. There can also be a line, especially in the evening, so be prepared to wait for a bit. My favorites are Tamarind tiger, Pad C U, Kow Soi duck, and the Por-Thod (deep-fried egg roll). All dishes were delicious and tasted fresh. The duck was tender, and the curry was so creamy and flavorful. The desserts were also great. The Banana in Pajamas and Mango with sticky rice were our favorites. They were sweet but not too overpowering. They were the perfect end to a heavy, filling meal. Overall, I enjoyed my visits to Kapow Thai Eatery. The price was on the pricier side, and the portions were a bit small. I've recommended this place to people, and they loved it too. I'll keep coming back here for sure.

    Wing of Kapow
    Daniel H.

    Came again and decided to stick with some old, Wings of Kapow and Scallop Zapp, and try some new things as well, Pad Thai and Chicken Satay. Wings of Kapow and Scallop Zapp tasted as great as last time. The Wings this time though felt a bit... smaller. The portion size looks the same, but the wings were less "meatier," so it wasn't as satisfying. Pad Thai was good. A little bit too sweet for my liking at first, but once I squeezed in some lemon the sourness balanced it out. Chicken Satay was unfortunately a miss for me. Flavors were great, cucumbers were yummy, and the peanut sauce was amazing, but the chicken didn't impress me. It wasn't dry, but it wasn't particularly juicy or tender either. The Thai Pink Milk was also a miss. Looks interesting, but the taste is exactly the same as the strawberry milk you would get during lunch in Elementary school. What made up for this visit however is the Mango Sticky Rice - it exceeded all my expectations. Loved the sweetness and texture. I was expecting some sourness from the mangos but they were also very sweet; I was pleasantly surprised. Would return solely for this dessert. Service like last time was great. Staff is friendly and attentive, constantly checking in on us and asking if we needed anything. Overall, definitely a few misses on some of the dishes this time, but the Mango Sticky rice alone made up for everything. Would certainly return.

    Since the hype has downed down, I was able to come back a few times -- dined in three times and ordered to go, twice. Service is kind and nice, nothing wrong with the service. Very disappointed in the food. Appetizers are very small portions and very bland in flavor, definitely on the pricier end and not worth it's price. After trying different entrees on their menu, the only ones that I would recommend would be the Crab Fried Rice and Pad C U. When ordered to go, very disappointing experience as the veggies are not fresh, they are very old. You can see it in the color but also the taste. It's obvious they're serving old veggies, wouldn't surprise me if any others meats or noodles are stale or old. I definitely thought I found a good spot for Thai food but this one not only surprised but disappointed me. Definitely a hit or miss.

    Entry: You put ur name on the waitlist tablet by the door. It'll ask if your party is all there or partially. If you elect partially, you NEED to go back to the tablet and mark that everyone in your party has arrived otherwise they won't seat you. Menu: For a thai place, it def has a limited selection but I was able to find a few items that were vegetarian/vegan. Food: I got the fresh spring rolls with tofu for the appetizer. These were just ok but of course, peanut sauce MADE this worthwhile. For the entree, I really wanted to try the Ka Pow "must try" item but the waiter said it's just a stir fry that's mainly protein. For a vegetarian, I assumed that would just be a plate full of tofu so I elected to go with the Pad Kee Mao. IMO can never go wrong with drunken noodles, and I was right! It was delicious! Surprisingly, unlike other Thai places, they didn't ask for spice level. For dessert, my friend and I shared the fruit and ice cream (middle option). This was quite unique and we thoroughly enjoyed it! The ice cream was pandan flavor and came on top of a slice of bread. Service: The entire time we were there (1.5 hours), the guy seems to be the one seating people and being the waiter. A lady was seen serving the food from the kitchen to the table. He was friendly and efficient but I felt given how small this place was, his mission was just to "get em in, get em out".

    Mango sticky rice for the win
    Candy C.

    Kapow is quickly becoming my go-to Thai spot. The food is legit hella good, and the staff are always friendly and respectful. The Thai basil fried rice is my absolute favorite, with the roti prata coming in a close second. I'm also a fan of the branzino and the duck dish. The crispy pork belly appetizer was on point, though the calamari was just okay. The scallops were amazing! Dessert definitely delivered -- the mango sticky rice hit the spot, especially paired with a refreshing glass of lychee iced tea. I'll definitely be coming back again and again!

    Volha K.

    Really loved this place (: The crab fried rice was so good and full of flavor. The crispy pork belly was also amazing, perfectly crispy and spicy. And the wings were honestly my favorite super crispy and delicious. Definitely recommend if you love Thai food (:

However, a few minutes later, they came back to explain it wasn't actually a happy hour deal, but a lunch special. This was frustrating since we had called to confirm and had already ordered. While our other food arrived earlier, we waited over an hour for the shrimp. We watched five separate tables who arrived after us get served their shrimp first. Even though we told the staff a couple of times that our shrimp hadn't arrived yet, we were still left waiting. The shrimp didn't finally arrive until 6-6:10pm. They eventually explained they thought we had already been served and suspected our order had accidentally been packed into a to-go order. The food itself was actually delicious, the shrimp and garlic noodles were very flavorful. I don't even have a photo of the shrimp because by the time it finally arrived, we were so hungry we just started eating! To their credit, once they realized the error, they slashed the price of the 1lb shrimp and gave us free rice to make it right The food is great, but the kitchen organization was a mess during our visit. Management was honest and tried to fix the mistake, but waiting an hour for the main part of your meal while watching five other tables eat is a major headache.

We knew immediately this was our vibe. We sat down and read through the menu. A lot of dishes I wasn't familiar with, so naturally I defaulted to what I knew -- quesadilla de camarón. My wife did the smart thing and asked for recommendations. Mauricio suggested three dishes and she chose the last one- I think it was because something about tequila . When it was my turn, I proudly placed my order. Without missing a beat, Mauricio looked at me and said, "Bro, you can get that anywhere -- you should try this." He began describing the dish, then pointed to his dad sitting patiently at a corner table. "That's his invention." No more words needed. I said sold. Our dishes arrived and we immediately moved them to the center of the table so we could share both. I had the seafood fajitas -- shrimp, fish, fajita vegetables, and the most tender, flavorful pulpo I've ever had. All the seafood was cooked perfectly: tender but not falling apart. But the octopus and the sauce were something special. Chef Jose came to check on us and I told him about the pulpo. His eyes lit up as he began describing his preparation process -- then he said, "You want to see?" He walked me right into his kitchen and showed me the octopus being prepared. That moment alone was worth the visit. By the time we returned to our table, the restaurant had started to fill up. We continued enjoying our food, including the handmade soft tortillas that came with my dish -- don't sleep on those. Chef Jose stopped by again, sharing more stories, more passion, more of himself. Before we even finished eating, we were already planning our next visit for happy hour and dinner with the family. This is a perfect example of what Will Guidara calls Unreasonable Hospitality -- unexpected, personalized, and genuinely human. Mauricio and Chef Jose aren't just running a restaurant. They're sharing something they love, and you feel it in every bite and every interaction. Thank you, Mauricio and Jose. We'll be back.

The Fajitas de Mariscos came with tons of seafood in a savory sauce. It came with rice w/corn and beans. We also had the Camarones Costa Azul which was jumbo shrimp wrapped with bacon in a savory tomato sauce + cheese. Definitely a heavy dish but pretty tasty! I really liked the homemade tortillas here; they were so soft and went well with the shrimp and fajitas. Prices are in the higher end but portions are also huge! There seemed to be just a husband and wife when we dined. They were very welcoming and helpful with explaining the menu. Place was very spacious with lots of seating.
