Sala Thai has delicious and reasonable priced Thai food in Bay Area. The food is very homey. We ordered coconut shop, fried eggplant with seafood basil sauce, and pad Thai. Everything was spot on and eggplant was super delicious. read more

Been here multiple times, but never left a review. The wait on a weekend was around 15 minutes. My go to's are papaya salad or a soup. I was so cold, so I opted for Tom Kia ( which was flavorful). Their Tom Yum is also really good. I always get the crab fried rice and crispy garlic fish. Such a yummy combo with extra spices! The sauce for the fish is sweet, but pairs well. Honestly three dishes was a lot for us still that we had leftovers. Staff is attentive and nice. Inside it looks like a traditional restaurant with lots of seating. Outside, there's tons of parking. Definitely a staple if you're in Fremont for authentic Thai food. read more

Quick service, neat and clean, good staff. Portion sizes were just enough. We have seen larger portion sizes at many Asian restaurants. read more

I got the drunken noodles with chicken and it was great! The noodles were perfectly cooked and the sauce was so good. They have lunch specials until 3 pm and the entrees are a fee dollars cheaper from regular price! Our food came out pretty quickly and the staff here is helpful! The restaurant is clean and is good for a lunch out! read more

Sala Thai - Drunken Noodle - Thai Near Me - Fremont, California

I've been going here for years . It's always busy so go early expect to wait. The food always hit the spot.

My stepdad loves this place, and they all know his name here pretty well. I often go with him or get takeout for him. It's excellent food, great service, and surreal value. We went to the location yesterday for lunch again, and we observed as a family that there is no dish that we have ever ordered that we didn't really like. Enough said! Highly recommend! read more

Sala Thai - Eggplant dish, shrimps in a blanket, and pineapple rice ... for starters. - Thai Near Me - Fremont, California

My friend and I arrived here around 1 pm, and we were glad to arrive that this time... PARKING: There's a great parking lot outside the restaurant, so the only worry is the long wait times. AMBIENCE: Awesome ambience that is spacious and welcomes all groups from families, couples, and parties. While my friend and I were dining, there was party of 10 hosting a birthday party in the middle of the dining room. SERVICE: We arrived at a great time since we were sat immediately before the huge lunch rush; everyone after us had to queue up on a waitlist. The staff are on top of it with bussing tables and delivering food from the kitchen. There wasn't much interaction from the servers other than being served water, plates, and to-go boxes. They've automated a QR code, so you can select and pay through their Toast Ordering System. ORDERS: My friend and I did a mini family style - Crunchy Green Beans: Yes! Got to have your veggies! Love the crunch and deep fry from the coating around the green beans. However, it was dry and no seasoning- needed salt at least. They pair the veggies with ketchup, which was interesting but a sweet addition. I was hoping it would be similar to Szechuan green beans with some spice but sadly not. Still delicious though. - Paradise Noodles / Pad Thai with Crab Meat: sweet light noodles with lots of egg for protein and lots of sauce. Really good with savory notes from the tofu and veggies. Super chewy noodles. - Pad See Ew: I always order this at a new Thai place. The noodles were executed well. Great chewy flat rice noodles with lots of sauce to make it sweet, which definitely satisfied my sweet tooth. The brocolis were cooked so well and absorbed the sweet juices from the noodles. The dishes were great leftovers for dinner! RATING: A memorable and top tier Thai place in Fremont with high quality food and staff. read more

This used to be my favorite Thai place because of the good food until the past few months. Whenever I eat here I notice it's so dirty and there's little flies flying around our food. The recent visit they gave us cups for water and it had someone else's lip stain on the rim of the cup which completely grossed me out. They also put their door mats (used on the floor) rolled up on the bench in the waiting area where customers sit. Service is just okay. They take a long time to come back to your table but given they're busy most of the time it's understandable. read more

Visited Sala Thai near closing time on a Friday night. Restaurant was packed but was able to be seated within a couple minutes. Ordered the vegetarian pad see ew with mild spice (default) and it was bland. I had to add soy sauce and chili flakes and then it was much better. Service was very good! read more

Sala Thai - Pad See Ew (vegetarian) and Basil entree with Tofu - Thai Near Me - Fremont, California

I've been coming to Sala Thai for years and this is my go to Thai restaurant in the east bay. They have 2 other locations but this one is the best in my opinion. There is plenty of parking and the restaurant is spacious so I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes even when I come during prime time. Service is quick, staff are friendly and they have a large selection on their menu. A must for me every time are angel wings, seafood tom yum soup, crab fried rice, chicken larb and Thai ice coffee. Angel wings: Nice crunch on the outside and stuffed with pork meat on the inside with a side of Thai sweet chili sauce. Seafood Tom yum: this can be ordered by the bowl or hot pot. If ordered by the hot pot it can serve up to 4 people. It comes out on a metal hot pot and is full of mushroom, shrimp, fish and tomatoes. It's a good amount of sour. Crab fried rice: packed with flavor and a good amount of crab mixed in. Chicken larb: you can order the spice level from mild, medium to spicy. Chicken larb is grounded chicken and has lime juice on it and is really good with rice. read more

Good food terrible service. If you are Indian just do take out or better find another place. You won't be treated well and be prepared for rude service. Food has gone down and though most of the customers are Indian, I always felt rude staff. Just they don't care. I wish another good Thai place opens so that we don't have to deal with rude service. read more

I love Sala Thai! We used to always order it at work for celebrations like birthdays, and I finally got to try it in the restaurant--it was amazing. I had the crispy fish with coconut rice and Thai tea with coconut milk. The service was great, and the staff was quick to take our orders. The seating area is really nice and spacious, which made for a comfortable dining experience. read more

We've been going to Sala Thai for years, but we've noticed that the service and quality has gone down. They used to be so welcoming, but that is nonexistent now. Service was not friendly during our last visit. We ordered a lot of food for six people and the waitress said a snarky remark about it when she delivered the last item to our table. So what if we ordered hella food! We were celebrating birthdays! Keep your remarks to yourself. They were also annoyed when we asked for another garlic sauce for our crispy fish. We saw them talking at the front and shaking their heads. The container spilled on the table when I was trying to separate the fish. The fillets are usually in separate pieces but they were all stuck together, plus the serving dish is wavy. Of course it's going to spill if it's served on an uneven surface! We were also going to order steamed rice in addition to the crab fried rice that we ordered since my daughter is allergic to seafood. The waitress said that we can order it later if the crab fried rice isn't enough for us. I had to explain my daughter's allergy to her and she seemed pretty annoyed. Is it hard to scoop up a bowl of white rice? I can't.... The food was good, but the portions are smaller. My daughters and I also had sour stomachs in the evening. We think it might have been from the pad kee mao since that was the only entree the three of us shared. Btw, the automatically charged 18% service charge since we were a party of 6. Definitely undeserving because of the horrible service we received. Sorry, Sala Thai. We won't be back. read more

UPDATE: Food has gotten 40-50% smaller in portion. Prices look to be about the same but the crispy fish with ginger sauce is tiny 4 pieces. They look like chicken tenders!! This is outrageous! They used to serve more than this and at bigger sizes. The roti is tiny too!! They roti used to be bigger and now they're tiny, half the size of my finger. I paid $70 for a little side of "steamed veggies" (served cold still), roti, crispy fish, pad Thai and a bowl of rice. I'm sorry Sala Thai, I used to be a huge fan of yours but now things have changed. Portions too small for high prices. I won't be back. read more

A good go-to Thai spot in Fremont! They have a few locations throughout Fremont, but I always end up at the one on Stevenson! The crunchy green beans were served with ketchup, which was something I wasn't use to. Although the fried part wasn't too overwhelming, I was expecting more a salt and pepper taste like you would with chicken wings. It tasted more bland than I would have wanted. The pad see ew was delicious! The broccoli was throughly cooked but still had that nice crunch. The noodles had a sweet yet savory taste to them. The crab pad thai was so delicious! It had a sweet and slightly sour taste to it. It came with a good amount of crab and made for great leftovers! The service was quick and straightforward. We didn't get as much server-customer interaction since we ordered via a QR code. They also provided us with our own container of water. The restaurant was packed! They had to open up another section accommodate everyone who was coming in. Despite this, they still sat us down quickly. It was a bit loud as well since there were many families celebrating birthdays. I recommend this place if you want a reliable place to eat Thai food! read more

We've come here multiple times. Before Covid, the price was very affordable but after Covid, the price has gone up to normal (or a little bit expensive) side. You place order online and they'll bring food over to your table. What we ordered: - Crispy fish with sweet garlic sauce: $18.95 this one goes really well with Pad Thai. The fish is scripy, moist, flaky. It's on the sweet side. - Pad Thai: $15.95 very delicious and generous portion - Pineapple fried rice: $16.95 just okay, don't recommend - Basil fried rice: yummy, flavorful. Preferred this one over pineapple fried rice. Food came pretty quick and service was decent. read more

This place has terrible service. I've ordered takeout from this place several times and the food tastes quite delicious. However, I made a terrible mistake to go dine at this place in-person. It was a terrible experience. We got seated in a booth and there were two server ladies who were taking care of us and they haven't learned to smile or how to talk with customers. We got seated in our seats and two menus were handed. Within 20 seconds, one of the servers came and asked us whether we are ready to order. We said a couple of minutes later. Another 30 seconds, the other person returned and asked whether we are ready to order. We felt really pressured to order fast, don't know why. So we ordered the appetizer and then asked some more time to look over the menu and order the entrees. While we started looking, the first person returned within a minute to take our order. I have no idea what's the rush, I thought maybe the food takes a while to come out, so we placed our order. It literally took 5-7 minutes for our food to come out. No idea what the rush was about. After we started eating, after 10-15 minutes, the server returned and asked whether we need any boxes! We again felt rushed as if we have to eat fast for some unexplained reason. We said that we are still working on it. After 5-7 minutes we were again asked about boxes and we chose to pack our remaining food. We were out of the restaurant within 30 minutes for a dinner, the fastest that I can remember just because the rude servers who apparently have no knowledge of customer service, just rushed us through our dinner. The only good thing is the great food there, but unfortunately I'll not be indulging in it any more. read more

One of our favorite thai restaurants in our neighborhood. The food and service are always consistent and the prices are reasonable. The roti canai and their pineapple fried rice are always a part of our order and, as far as the entree goes, we tend to switch it up based on our mood. Sometimes we go for the yellow curry and sometimes we have tom yum. Regardless of what we order - we always leave satisfied. read more

I picked up my food to go, everything was cooked to perfection, the fish was delicious and fried just right and. Not extra greasy because it was fried. The garlic sauce was perfectly mix. The papaya salad has the perfect spice and was extremely fresh. The pineapple rice was so tasty and perfectly combined to be the perfect pairing to the fish, not to soft and cooked just right. I will come again to try as many things as I can. read more

Easily one of the best Thai restaurants in Fremont, an institution that has been tasty and lovely.

My customers re quested this for lunch. I completely understand the hype! It was authentic and flavorful. I did feel the meats were a tad on the salty side but I generally don't use much in my cooking. I would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a true Thai dining experience read more

WOW! AMAZING FOOD! This has to be my favorite thai restaurant! Loved the crispy fish with garlic sauce. It seemed to be a very popular item, as almost every table around us also ordered it! The pumpkin curry was super creamy and delicious. the vegetables in the curry had a good crunch and were not soggy! The pumpkin in the curry had a good portion size as well! Also ordered the pad Thai with chicken. Reasonable prices and decently sized portions. Recommend sharing the food as a group so that you can try the various dishes! Ambiance: a little dark inside, but didn't really matter to me too much. The waitress seemed like she was in a hurry to make us leave. But we sat there for 2 hours, enjoying our food and conversation. read more

Fried fish 5/5 - wow this was so good! It was so crispy and the sauce was really good. Sauce is like a sweet soy sauce Pad Thai 5/5 - I love their pad Thai too. It was more saucy but that's how I like it! They don't fill it with so much bean sprouts. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Fremont - I always say it's one of the few good spots here and everyone agrees! The food has never disappointed me and is always consistently delicious, flavorful, and generously portioned enough to take home leftovers. I've done a share mix of ordering and eating in restaurant, the vibes in here are always really nice!! The service is really great and fast too with the QR code, and they still come to ask if you need any other items. I've gone to other locations too and this one continues to reign as my favorite! The pad kee mao is my absolute fav, and if I want something else along with it I'll get basil fried rice. I also really like their mango chicken, and the roti canai is a delicious appetizer. read more

We like Sala though the menu is not very big and they have only limited hours compared to other places.

Usually quite packed so the ambiance is pretty casual. read more

My boyfriend and I came here on a Friday night for dinner. We didn't have any reservations but there was plenty of seating. it was a bit confusing since they had signs saying they didn't have any servers & to order in front first if you're dining in. Then, my boyfriend and I saw the party behind us get seated, so it was a bit strange. They had physical menus to order w the waitress & also QR codes to order & pay from your phone. We ordered: roti, pad see ew & drunken noodles w/ tofu! The roti was good flavor wise. Personally, I wished it was crispier instead of soft. The pad see ew was what I expected. They added a good amount of pork and was actually a lot more filling than it looks. My boyfriend likes drunken noodles but he ordered a mild and it was a bit spicy for him. There's also lots of parking in this plaza so it's not a problem. If you're in the mood for Thai food in this area, this is a solid pick. read more

I've been going to Sala Thai for many years. My first date with with my current love (been together 18 years) was at the original just a few blocks from where the current and larger one now sits. It's my loves favorite place to eat. He has never once gotten anything different. Not once. I've had many things here is what we ate today 1. Tom yum w Shrimp - really good tasty. Packed with shrimp, mushrooms, tomatoes. Savory sour and just enough. I just wish the tomatoes were smaller. 2. Chicken Larb- minced chicken with lettuce, chili, lime juice and fish sauce. Really nice and rather light. 2 Crispy Fried Fish with Sweet garlic sauce. If they ever stopped selling this there would be a very unhappy man in Hayward. He has never gotten anything else. Ever. It's crispy and moist very well fried. Breading isn't overdone. The sauce is good. I wish it was a bit spicier. 3. PANANG CURRY w Beef - rich, thick and creamy. Lots of meat, string bean and bell pepper. I got it spicy and it was perfect. I was slightly sweating. Most everything I've ever had here was very good. I was just reading their menu and really want to try their crab fried rice and the pine apple fried rice. Love the Thai BBQ. Restaurant: plenty of seating and clean. You can order 2 ways. Via the only waitress or via QR. I can't stand it. I know why we have it. We did it today as the lady working seemed busy and we didn't want to be pain. I really do hope restaurants return to the pre- Covid way but it's not looking good. Miss the people and service. There is plenty of parking. They also close one hour between lunch and dinner service. They now have three locations one of which is Halal. It's Sala 2 on Grimmer. All in all another great Sala Trip read more

my company orders lunch from here quite often. It is one of our favorites in the office. We have a typical lunch rotation, but Sala Thai is in the rotation twice. I've never eaten at this particular Sala Thai (I have at their other locations), and have only done take-out. Normally, we call to place the order and we have someone pick it up. I've done the pick up a few times, and it usually pretty smooth. I give them my number, they bring me my order and confirm what it is, and then I am on my way back. I've had every type of curry here, their pad thai, pad kee mao & pad see ew. I would recommend every single one. Easily one of my favorite thai places. read more

Sala Thai is a classic. The service was friendly and responsive we were seated quickly and given water. The ambiance was average; it definitely felt like a mom-and-pop restaurant. We ordered the Pad See Ew, Mixed Veggies, Fried Rice, and Mango sticky rice, which were all great! the Pad See Ew had a nice thick rice noodle and a very flavorful sauce however, they did use regular broccoli instead of Chinese broccoli or broccolini, which was fine but felt a little less authentic. The sticky rice was also very delicious! However, the Mango did look a little sad. To give them the benefit of the doubt, we weren't sure if it was even mango season. Regardless, this was a great restaurant, and we'll definitely be returning! read more

Sala Thai - Pad see ew, Mixed veggies and Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Fremont, California

Got vegetarian basil fried rice to go recently along with Tom yum soup. I found this place is overpriced and serves a smaller quantity than other Thai restaurants around. The basil fried rice dish I got had literally only 3 pieces of tofu in it. I am quite disappointed in the quantity and ratio of ingredients in the food, especially because competitor restaurants have better proportions for similar cost. The Tom yum soup was wonderful in flavor. Also had only 3 pieces of tofu. Service was also quite slow for to-go orders. I am not going again and do not recommend. Other notes: - Lots of parking available in the plaza nearby. - Ambience seemed nice, people seemed to be having fun. read more
