My favorite dishes are the curry (green and red) and stirred eggplant with beef. My husband loved the pad Thai and pad see eew. Service was great. The old lady who tried to warn us about the spicy level was very nice and friendly. One thing about this place is there is no parking lot. You have to park on the streets and sometimes it could get a bit difficult to find parking.

I ordered the Tom Yum noodle soup yesterday Uber Eats , and it was absolutely delicious…read more Unfortunately, today's order was a huge disappointment. The only modification I requested was no pork, but instead of just leaving out the pork, my soup came with only tofu. It was missing the shrimp and fish cakes that are normally included, which made it feel incomplete.l and tasted extra soup than was yesterday I also ordered the Pad Thai, and it was very bland. The tofu was over-fried and extremely chewy. I'm really disappointed because yesterday's meal was so good. I hope this was just an off day and they can be more careful with special requests in the future.

After a couple of hours sight seeing, we took a wrong turn and ended up in this town and stumbled onto this beauty. It's like a new generation of Thai food for us. Not at all what we're used to or have ever tasted. It was great! A very intimate, joyous fellowship broke out with great friends and an even better atmosphere. Seating is outdoors only and you're surrounded by flowers and the very vegetables we were about to eat. Very surreal! I believe it's the first time I've ordered food and they literally grew it outside the eatery. It was all delicious and I highly recommend you get lost and stumble into them, yourself. I love this place!

Finally made it and they only do take out and cater to just make the food rather than providing at all any public service. No one greets you or offers assistance especially with how the online menu you would order on at this location. Even after waiting and calling out to the people preparing the food for help I still did not get what I ordered completely I was missing the blue rice which would have kept a star up but because I was denied what I asked what was pictured and even paid more since there was a lunch special and told if you want what is pictured on the menu order the dinner item Their online menu isn't updated so don't look at their website Their other locations are way better than this spot which is an express only with rude employees I definitely suggest the other locations in Oakland and Palo Alto Beautiful areas with great customer service and they present their food instead of getting missing items over priced take out only. I will say the food was still delicious and I ate everything but with the blue rice that extra star would be there Expect No help To go only And missing items with the miss communication of rude service The reason stars fell off on my end The 2 stars I did give was just for the food still being delicious but that missing rice made it seem not amazing as the sit down locations aside from here And the other star was for it being close by to me so convenient I would had told all my family and friends but I will tell them to never go here unless you just want the food ok but check the items before leaving Go to their other locations the food and service is far way better than here

Great food and great Service. I'll start with our server, Santos. If you have any kind of dietary…read morerestrictions. Santos is well versed and can give you specific recommendations as well as to let you know how it would be prepared. Our group was blown away by this. Personally, I had the Vegetable Nepali Thali, medium spicy. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd order it again and maybe try some meat the next time. Will I be back? You damn right, I AM! Parking is sometimes limited right in front of the restaurant, but there is plenty of parking real close by. You got Parking lot 4 on B Street and the Cinemark parking garage nearby on Foothill blvd.

The signage was missing as they are refacing the storefront signs. It is right next to the dry cleaners. We sat in a cozy booth and ordered Thai iced tea, woon sen, Pad Thai with chicken and Pad See Ew with beef and gravy. We decided to share the dishes family style and enjoyed the woon sen and Pad Thai; however Pad See Ew took a long time to come out and it was a-ok, not much flavor but had big pieces of beef and broccoli. There was only one server and for the most part, when we needed her to bring hot tea (as the tea wasn't hot), she was not visible. We asked for hot tea a second time and she discovered the machine was broken as the water wasn't hot. Food prices are reasonable but seemed like service was slow.

My personal favorite dish was the beef satay with the peanut sauce. The meat was extremely tender, savory, and aromatic. The thai tea was also not too sweet, which is a great thing when you're in your 30s like me . The service was great!! Food came out on time, and waters were refilled quickly.

I really had high hopes for this place. Im so picky with my pad thai!!…read more From the color i already knew it was lacking flavor. Even without spice, it was so bland to the noodles chicken and tofu. The shrimp egg rolls looked more like mini meat inside and no shrimp. Thai tea had the right color but i was hoping it to be sweet. Ill come back and try other items, but i would skip everything i had today. Great customer service. Order was made to order. Parking can be challenging during dinner time

I haven't written a review for a very long time with restaurants that my family and I have visited…read moreand that's because there's not too many restaurants out there there I have been to have inspired me to write a review. However, Pad Thai Cuisine is very different. My son and I decided to try Pad Thai Cuisine today because we just happened to be in the area. I am so glad that we did! The exterior of the restaurant looks like a house with a cute little white picket fence. As you walk onto the porch, there is a door to the right of it. You open the door and the reception area is just right ahead. We were greeted by a young lady named Jasmine. She is super sweet and friendly. We were told that we were welcome to sit anywhere we liked, so we decided to take a window seat. Where we sat, we can see the little garden and the main street. There weren't a lot of customers, but wasn't empty either. Jasmine asked us what we wanted to eat. Since it was our first time there, we asked for her suggestions. She recommended curry and fried noodles. She also told us that our meal came with drinks (only for lunch), so my son and I ordered Thai Ice Tea. This is no ordinary Thai Ice Tea. It wasn't overly sweet and the tea was brewed. I could be wrong, but it really tasted like they used tea leaves to make the tea. I didn't ask though. I should ask. After talking to Jasmine, we decided to order Chicken Yellow Curry with rice and Pork Pad See Ew. Let me start with the Chicken Yellow Curry, it had bell peppers, onions, chicken and potatoes. I have never had potatoes made this way before. It was soft (not mushy) and the center was firm (not raw). It was made to perfection! The chicken was not dry, the curry was not too spicy and very well balanced with the curry seasoning. It was served along side with a small amount of rice. The Pad See Ew, was so delicious! The noodles were not clumped together. When I took the first bite, I can taste the wok hay (Chinese for taste of the strong fire that the wok that the noodles were cooked in. The pork was very tender with a tad bit of fat that made it just right to bite into. We requested it to be mild because I can't handle spicy food. However, if you like spicy food, I say go for it! Last but not least, the dessert! There were 3 choices, but we ordered the mango with sticky rice. It was AMAZING! The sticky rice was not mushy, the mango was sweet and did not contain a lot of fibers. Small amount of coconut milk to be drizzled on top. I felt my palate being in heaven. Pad Thai Cuisine is owned by a Laotian family. It's owned and run by grandma, mom, aunts and two daughters. Grandpa is retired, but also helps with ordering and picking up ingredients when they run out. It's a very unique and cozy place to enjoy some delicious Thai Cuisine. Don't take my word for it. You must go and try it out yourself! I will be returning to the restaurant to try other delicious food that they have to offer! I will also be writing more about the story of Pad Thai Cuisine restaurant. We need to support more mom-and-pop restaurants! More story and pictures to Come...

I had it DoorDashed to me - drink was still cold (ice not all melted) and soup was hot. The ginger sauce though in this meal was hitting authentic notes! I could probably have had two more of these to pour on the chicken. I'm definitely ordering again! Thanks for serving a dish that doesn't get as much "popularity" as the Pad Thai and making it one of your star dishes! This was one of my favorite dishes my grandma would make for me and I'm feeling so comforted by it!

Long overdue post. Have ordered Moo Dang noodles, papaya salad, and Khao Mun Gai a few times…read more Delicious! Flavors all on point and cohesively work to make a delicious meal. Only thing to note is the papaya salad can be a hit or miss. I hope it's more consistent with the amount of food and flavor. When it is on point, it is good!

First off, this place has been here for as long as I can remember. During my college years, I have…read moreseen this place and almost 20 years later, it is still here. Longevity in the restaurant business is tough so when looking for a place to add to my takeout list as a new resident to Castro Valley, I had to give this place a try. I have been in Castro Valley for about 7 months now and have gotten take out from here at least 5 times and every single time, my wife and I have been greeted and treated with love by the owners. Were there a few times where I had to wait a little while longer because of how busy they were or issues in the kitchen? Of course yes, stuff like that happens. I am a patient and understanding person. What is always consistent is the warmth that the owner just seems to emit, it must be the Thai culture and personality as having traveled to Thailand more than a handful of times, I felt the the love from the people. Now for the food. We usually order pad see eww, crab fried rice, angel wings and a few currys. The food always comes super hot and delicious, havent had a bad experience yet with the food. Honestly, what keeps me coming back is the lady that runs the place, I adore her and the love she treats people with.

We ordered: - tom kha with chicken - flavors were good, but chicken was dry. - pad see eww - flavors were also fine but beef was extremely chewy. - grilled salmon with curry on the side - salmon was overcooked; without the curry on the side, the vegetable vegetables and salmon would be extremely bland Not sure how they were out of sticky rice when had just opened at 4:30 PM. The server was really sweet, but I just don't see myself coming back for a third time because the food is just very mediocre to me.
