I ordered the value yellow curry meal. The vegetable rolls were ice cold on the inside the first time they were served to me. The carrots and potatoes in the curry were not cooked they were rock hard. I'm guessing the raw vegetables were added at the last minute. I'm glad I got the value portion because I was disappointed. The server was nice

Tasty and Affordable and with reasonable ambiance around this area. Just little confuse ordering from dining.

Tom Kah Soup Pineapple Fried Rice Crying Tiger

Jasmine T.

Came across this spot from Yelp & decided to try it for dinner (dine in). Their service is so good. The food came out so quickly for a party of 3. We had ordered: Crying Tiger, Tom Kha & Pineapple Fried Rice It hit the spot! They definitely don't skimp out on the protein & veggies & prices were fair. They have a few tables inside for dine in. Parking is all street parking.

literally SO GOOD!! i got tom yum soup, pad thai, and basil fried rise!! all of the food was genuinely incredible. i got medium spice which was wayyy too spicy and i usually can handle spice, but that's okay!!

There's a parking lot! No, it's not in the laundry place lol

Teeny tiny place in OB, I haven't been here in a few years. We were in the area so I thought we'd pick up something for dinner. I couldn't recall not liking it... it's been that long. We ordered the following items - Fried pork belly appetizer- this was almost inedible. It was overcooked and very chewy. We didn't finish this. - Pad Thai with chicken - I usually like pad Thai, but the noodles were very gummy. It was not pleasant trying to eat this. - Thai basil fried rice with chicken - simple, nothing crazy, it was very plain tasting. The chicken throughout the dishes were very dry and overcooked. - Thai tea - I like this, but that was it. Sadly I didn't recall my previous experience eating here before our last visit and save myself a bad meal. :( Not going to forget this time! Staff was nice tho. Maybe the kitchen was having an off night. Maybe I'll try again in a few years. 2025: 18

Neon green curry? What the heck is that? I never had green curry dyed the chicken meat like that? On top of that they gave me maybe 3 pieces of chicken for $17.. never again. Stick to zab Linda if you want authentic Thai.

Mango Curry, papaya salad and Khao Soi Soup

Cheryl G.

This little hole-in-the-wall wasn't even on my radar until I found it on Yelp. Quite tasty! The woman at the counter who greeted us was very friendly and happy to make suggestions. She was also cute, she offered me a little chopstick napkin apparatus that would make it easier for me to eat with chopsticks, but I don't need that. I still appreciated the gesture! We got the papaya salad, Mango Curry and Khao Soi Soup. Everything was delicious, although I found the mango curry to be a little on the watery side. My favorite item was the Khao Soi soup. It was full of veggies and I liked the contrast of texture between the noodles in the soup and the crunchy noodles on top of the soup. We went for the mock duck because I thought it would be easier to eat that than a chicken leg in the soup. I also really enjoyed the papaya salad and thought it was a fun bonus that it came with two juicy shrimp.

Pretty solid Thai that is friendly and welcoming. You order at the counter and pay right away and your order would be delivered to you to your table. Menu was pretty mainstream Thai with few addition of street food. Prices were very reasonable and the ambiance was cozy and comfortable. I ordered green curry with beef, it was good and will come back to try the other things next time.

It's hard to drive past this place without having the urge to get some Pad Thai. Order at the register and they bring the food out to you. Relaxed, chill inside and outside seating.

Love this spot so much! It's got a warm, chill vibe, and the food slaps! We got the yellow curry with chicken on the lunch special and a side of egg rolls. The food came out so quickly and it was incredible. The curry was such a great flavor, and the eggrolls were fried to perfection. The service was great. Very warm, welcoming and attentive!!! We didn't get them this time, but 10/10 recommend the mango sticky rice and crab wontons.

First time and already a fan. The inside was super clean. The staff was very nice and polite. You place your order at the counter and grab a seat. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The food came out quick and fast. The food was super flavorful and fresh. We got the panang curry with beef. Love the spicy no joke it's pretty spicy. We shared the Pad Kee Mao Roasted Pork, they definitely did not skimp on the roasted pork. Both the dishes we had were very tasty. Thank you Soi OB for a delicious first time. I can't wait to come back and try something else on the menu.

I ordered delivery through Uber Eats here so I didn't get to see what the ambience or service was like, but the food here was spectacular. Arguably lifechanging. We ordered the Pork Boat Noodle Soup, the Pad Thai, and the Crying Tiger. Pork Boat Noodle Soup is a must order! Such a savory flavorful broth with thin rice noodles, braised pork, and pork meatballs. Veggies included Chinese broccoli, bean sprouts, and green onion. The first sip of the broth was absolutely heavenly. Pad Thai was also delicious! Delightfully bouncy noodles and great flavor. The noodles held well over the course of the delivery. The Crying Tiger was the steak with rice and tamarind hot sauce to dip. So good. The sauce was really a game changer and complemented the steak so well. This is a must-go to Thai spot in San Diego, and I'll definitely have to make another stop here the next time I visit SD.

THAI FOOD FROM THAILAND...and Thai people (5 stars + meteor shower + SpaceX starlinks) Have you ever been to OB, Thailand? Me neither until recently. When the food is THAT good it makes you feel like you been teleported from OB to Bangkok/Chiangmai/Sakhon/Phuket/Krab on every single bite. Took me 7+ years to find my favorite Thai restaurant in San Diego and it's in OB (not in Convoy area). Soi OB is next to a laundry mat in the heart of Ocean Beach. This place is the truth. It's also the sister to SoI 30 but the better sister. - FOOD: F-A-N.tastic - PRICE: affordable and fair - SERVICE: sweet owner - AMBIANCE: cute and simple humble shop :: FOOD:: Had to test run the food with the go-to's and was not disappointment! Cooked per order, fresh tasting, clean. I left feeling full but not heavy afterwards. BEEF JERKY ($12.95) - fried beef jerky served with their house tamarind hot sauce. I never had a bad beef jerky at a Thai resultant but their version has meatier stripes than others. Nearly the same flavor but the portion was very generous. It comes with a side of sticky rice and their house tamarind hot sauce... hot is an understanding! HIGHLY RECOMMEND PAD THAI ($14.95) - rice vermicelli noodles stir fried in tamarind sauce, with egg, bean sprouts, green onion, crushed peanuts, cilantro, and a wedge of lime. I ordered this with tofu because I wanted protein but I wanted a protein that didn't add flavor to the dish so I could throughly taste their execution. OK! This was one of the best Phad Thai's I've had in SD/SoCal. It was perfect! Portion to price, ratio of ingredients, and the balance of flavor. It didn't have that overkill tamarind sauce nor flavor or any taste of fish sauce. Every ingredient folded in so well and complimented each other. It was clean tasting - you'll know what I mean. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Shame on me... I didn't leave room for dessert. That is very unlike me but will make up for it next time. :: SERVICE :: Order food, pay at the front, and seat yourself. The menu has some dishes I don't often see at other Thai restaurants. The owner and chef are from Thailand - everything about this place is authentic! The owner was so sweet and she ran the front and gave me tips since I couldn't make up my mind if I should try what I know or something new. There is a lady in the back doing all the cooking per order (if that be here orders or to-go orders). Small businesses have love and support. Show this place some love and tip generously. I'm about to be a regular and you know me I will eat the entire menu if I need to. I already know my next order and can't wait to come back. JABA APPROVED. Until the next bite.

This place is located near Ocean beach right next to a Laundromat. I was glad they had vegetarian options! I ordered the vegetarian sum tom and asked for spicy spicy !!! It was okay spicy lol... not enough for my southeast Asian taste buds, lol. I'm used to the papaya being more "tom-ed" but it was still kinda harder to chew. I would also recommend vegans/vegetarians to confirm if there was fish sauce in the sum tom. I also ordered the Kha Soi, excited they had a veggie option. Unfortunately, it just tasted like egg noodles in a curry sauce. It wasn't bad, but not what I expected. Good sized portions too. I could only touch less to half of it, lol. I got my fix for being in the area... it was as good as it gets. read more

Popped by this place on a whim while in Ocean Beach and was not disappointed! Food was fresh, quick, service was friendly, and the place was clean. You place your order and then can sit either inside or outside. As noted parking can be tricky depending on time and day in the heart of OB and this place is on Cable St just off Newport Ave. Ordered chicken Pad Thai & mixed Pineapple Fried Rice as recommended by staff! Food was hot and tasted quite authentic compared to many other Thai places we've tried. Portions were large and can easily be shared. Based off reviews we went mild spice level but it wasn't spicy enough..next time we will go medium. If you are in the area and craving Thai food be sure to check this place out!! read more

There was a glitch in my online order, it somehow switched to a dish that I did not order. When I arrived they at first reluctantly agreed to make what I wanted, but in the end fixed to technical error and gave me what I had ordered.

I just ordered Pad Thai (delivery) from this place. These reviews must be paid. This is the worst Thai I've ever had. The over-cooked noodles were way too sweet and flavorless. There was no spice whatsoever, NO TAMARIND-- an essential ingredient that defines the dish. It was only gummy sugar, with 2 over-cooked pieces of brownish broccoli, and equally flavorless tofu. And for over $20, I'm not exaggerating, it was a disgusting crime. I took one bite and threw the rest of into the garbage disposal. There's no way I would feed this to my dog. Hopefully, all the actual cooks couldn't make it to work tonight? And maybe they had to pull people off the street who had no idea what Pad Thai was? I don't get it. read more

At the end of my meal he gave a mango sticky rice dessert which is my favorite. My only regret is that I didn't order more. Highly recommend this spot! 10/10 read more

Enjoyed vegetable and basil fried rice through Grub Hub while vacationing in San Diego. My only issue with the food was that the only vegetable added was lots of zucchini and few pieces of carrot and broccoli. The other issues is not really a reflection of the restaurant but the ordering options. When I went to the website and tried ordering, there was a choice of sliced chicken or minced/ground chicken. When on GrubHub (cheaper delivery) the only option for chicken was minced which I do not like which is why I opted for just vegetables. There should be consistency between the different ordering apps but I feel like that's an easy fix! My point reduction was just for the overwhelming zucchini and not much of the other vegetables. Taste and spice level were good though, I ordered mild and it was perfect. Some places mild is basically no spice but this mild had a good amount of spice. I also didn't see any Thai tea on the delivery menu so that was kind of disappointing but no big deal. Definitely would say to check this place out. read more

Can I just first start by saying idk why people don't believe me when I say I want the spiciest they got lol. I am always advised to downgrade to lower tiers of spice and I'm always left thinking "yeah I could've handled the spiciest version of this". Anyways... I walked into this joint on a cold and misty day in OB and, since the restaurant was named after the dish, I knew that I had to order the Khao Soi in its most spicy variety. As I alluded to above, I ordered this in the thai spice variety. I was told I'll be given hot instead of extra hot thai spice and it took a minute before my meal was served, but man, once it arrived, I kid you not I spent a good hour just enjoying the meal. I arrived at opening so I was the only one in the cutely decorated interior. I had my earphones on, slowly crafting each perfect bite onto my soup spoon. The flat noodles soaked in the rich broth with expertise and the crunchy noodles slowly became soft and added great texture to each bite. I had never attempted to eat chicken legs with chopsticks before but the meat was so tender that, with a little bit of leverage, I was able to clean out two entire legs with a little patience and grip strength. I challenge anyone who wants to turbocharge their chopstick handling skills to do the same. Onions are used in every dish in my culture, so to see a quarter of a raw onion in my dish was a welcome sight. I don't envy those who crossed paths with my onion breath (a la spongebob) in the hours that follow but man was every bite just as oniony as I wanted it to be. After my marathon of an hour, the bowl was empty, only leaving behind the bones of meals past. Will definitely return here and try the other dishes, great stuff. read more

I've been searching for moo ping like the kind I had in Bangkok, Thailand, and that search ended here! The moo ping transported me back to the moment I tasted that sweet smoked pork hot off the street food grill. We also tried the fried tofu; It was nice and crispy. The Holy Spicy Basil pork dish was super savory and flavorful. The tom yum noodles were delicious as well. But the absolute winner was the moo ping. I'll be coming back for that often!

We ordered the Khao Soi, Somtum (papaya salad), the chicken Pad Thai, and garlic Calamari. None of the aforementioned dishes disappointed! The Pad Thai was one of the better ones my beautiful gorgeous girlfriend (who really likes pad thai) and I have tried. The calamari was nice and crispy in addition to the delicious flavor of garlic and was a great choice. I ordered the papaya salad in a mild spice level, but would probably go for a medium next time. And finally the Khao Soi; it was a large and delicious portion of food, and the chicken in it was so nice and tender. read more

Followed my nose to this place while visiting OB. So glad I did it was some of the best pad Thai I have had in a while! I went with medium spice and definitely felt it in the best of ways. If it were a 1-5 heat I usually go 4 and this medium felt just right to me. Staff was friendly and fast, set up seems made for take out or street eating but like a lot of spots in California that could just be residual from the pandemic. I will for sure be back for more next time I am in town! read more

I wanted to like this place a lot more, because I have eaten and really liked the sister restaurant in North Park. It's a small place that is not on the main street but still get lots of traffic passing by via cars or foot. I discovered this place because it's walking distance from a local gym in OB. The drunken noodles (pad kee mao) with chicken was fine--it wasn't bad but it also wasn't overly amazing. I was disappointed with the khao moo dob moo daeng, which is a pork special, described as crispy pork belly and roasted pork with gravy over rice and fried egg. I didn't know that it was just Chinese crispy roasted pork belly that is deep fried again. I was even more disappointed that it was just Chinese char sui, which is a BBQ like pork, but was way too fatty (and I like fat). Perhaps I had false expectations that Thai belly was different or better and I ordered the wrong thing. I would not recommend this dish. I will try another entree to give this place another chance and stick to the traditional Thai dishes. read more

I got the Khao Soi with Beef and asked for it to be spicy, but it was not spicy at all. The soup was weirdly extremely sweet and just did not make me feel great.

Grabbed take-out from here for dinner on our first night in San Diego. The location is great - it was just across the parking lot from where we were staying. I ordered the steamed veggies, rice, pad thai, and moo ping (grilled pork belly on skewers). The moo ping was delicious! It was grilled so well, with the right amount of char, and over the top good with their hot sauce. The steamed veggies could have been better. I know it's a side that not many people get but I ordered it for our toddler and the carrots and zucchini were very underdone. The food took a little bit longer than I expected for pick up but I'd go back to try their other skewers and noodles! read more

We chose this spot specifically because they are dog friendly and have an outdoor patio. Unfortunately when we got there all the tables outside were occupied but the tall english man server came outside and saw we were waiting, and he brought an entire table and 3chairs from inside, outside - just so we can enjoy the outdoor dining!! 100 stars for him! Plus he was SOOOO nice & helpful !! The best Customer service was the best i've ever recieved!!!! We ordered panang curry! We ordered non spicy, shouldve probably ordered like a mild spicy for a little more heat but it was still amazing it had lots of enticing aromas even the people walking by smelled how aromatic it was and decided to stop inside and order :) thai chicken wings, 8/10 i loved the crispiness and the dried garlic on top!! Made it super yummy and also because i love garlic + sweet and sour sauce! pad thai 9/10 = my personal preference is sweet pad thai! This was loaded with nuts and onions and eggs and it, some places dont put eggs in it but this made all the sauce get soaked in the noodles which made it 10x more flavorful and all of which were so flavorful! Server accidentally brought us out some green or yellow curry and let us keep it! Loved this location because of how awesome and quick their service was!! Will come back forever when I'm in the area read more

Save your money and your stomach. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE QUALITY OF FOOD BEING SERVED JUST MAKING MONEY OFF OF YOU. I am certain nobody working here has their food handlers card. We ordered a Crying Tiger bowl and asked for it Medium. When we got home it was still completely raw on the inside. Called, let them know and they said they would make us another. When we got there they treated us horribly when trying to give them back the food and show them the issue. They gave us a half order and told us to eat the rest of the bowl with the raw meat in it... extremely unprofessional. Once getting home with our SECOND crying tiger we realized they had cooked it so long it had practically turned to rubber. What do they not understand about "medium"? We called them once again and the lady ignored our number. Called from another phone and she immediately answered. Talk about horrible customer service. We asked for our money back and she acted like she would have to talk to her boss, when we explained how food handlers should know better than this and asked if they had their food handlers card she all of the sudden became able to give us our refund right away. I will literally never come back. If I could give zero stars I would. Waste of my time and money. Lost my appetite and can't imagine even feeding this food to my dog. read more

First time here, I was in the area and craving spicy Pad Thai noodles. I usually order a 6 or a 7 (out of 10) and today I was crazy a little bit spicier so I went for an 8. I probably shouldn't have because it tasted like a 10. My mouth was on fire! But honestly it was some of the best Thai food I have ever eaten. I ordered for pick up so didn't get the whole ambiance of eating inside the restaurant. But the service was quick and friendly. I can't wait to come back and try it again next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend! Oh.. but beware the spicy level. Haha! read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but I wanted to share my experience dining here with my family…read more The evening started off great. The staff was friendly when we arrived, we were seated quickly, received our drinks promptly, and our food came out fast. The music was enjoyable, the ambiance was nice, and the restaurant had a modern, welcoming feel. Most importantly, the food was excellent. Everything we ordered was delicious, and my kids couldn't stop talking about the crispy pork belly. Honestly, the food itself was 5-star quality. The issue was what happened as the restaurant approached closing time. About 10-15 minutes after we started eating, a staff member brought our check and asked us to pay even though we were still waiting on two mango sticky rice desserts that had not yet been served. I politely explained that we hadn't received all of our food yet, so it didn't make sense to close out the bill. The desserts were brought out shortly afterward. A different employee then returned and again asked us to close out the check, assuring us that we could continue eating while they finished closing. Although I was hesitant, I paid and explained that I would leave a cash tip after we finished since we were still dining. Unfortunately, from that point on, the service noticeably changed. No one checked on our table, our water glasses were never refilled, and the staff seemed focused on cleaning around us. The booth behind us was being cleaned very loudly while we were still trying to enjoy our meal. It made us feel rushed and unwelcome, and honestly took away from an otherwise great dinner. When I asked for containers for our leftovers, the interaction felt cold and standoffish compared to the friendly service we received earlier in the evening. My suggestion would be that if the restaurant is close to closing and doesn't want guests dining in, they should clearly communicate that and switch to takeout only. The food was genuinely delicious, and I would come back again--but not near closing time. Great food, disappointing end to the evening.

We were lucky and were able to grab the spot right out front. For drinks we each ordered a cocktail. It did take a bit for them to come out but once they did you can tell time and effort were put into making them. They were beautiful and all tasted great. We ordered 4 dishes to share, the wasabi scallop ceviche, crispy baby crab, braised beef panang, and crab fried rice. The ceviche was definitely one of my favorites. 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.

When we ordered, our server took the time to explain their spice scale (1-5), letting us know that a 1 is already about a medium spice level. We settled on mostly 2-3, but wow--the Thum Khao Poon (shredded green papaya salad) still packed some serious heat! Even my spice-loving kids were challenged. The server also gave us a heads-up that it's very fish-forward in flavor, which we appreciated and happened to love. The absolute standout of the meal was the Nam Khao Tod. It was hands down the family favorite--crispy coconut rice with pork sausage, crunchy peanuts, fresh herbs, and so many incredible textures and flavors in every bite. We could have ordered a second plate! We also had the Drunken Noodles with chicken, which were slightly oily in the best possible way, making them extra rich and delicious. The Chef's Special Basil Stir Fry with Crispy Pork was another winner. Our server brought over a chili vinegar that elevated the crispy pork to a whole new level--it was so good drizzled over every bite. Great food, thoughtful service, and plenty of dishes we're already looking forward to trying next time. Can't wait to come back!

It's become our go-to spot for Thai takeout over the past few years since it's close to home, and the food has always been consistently delicious.

Some of our regular favorites are the Thai crispy rolls, chicken lettuce wraps, Tom Kha soup, red curry, yellow curry, and my absolute favorite--the braised beef Panang curry. The sauce is rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of creaminess. The beef is always tender, and it's one of those dishes I find myself craving over and over again.

Everything came out right away but the Nam Khao never showed up. We were almost done with our dinner and the dish didn't come out yet so we asked them if we could cancel the order. The server told me she would see what she could do. 5 minutes later she brings the dish out and told us sorry they already made it and we had to accept it. At this point we were given the check. I was irritated but my husband said its fine, just take the whole thing to go and eat it when we get back. I packed it up. We paid for it and didn't make a fuss. When I got home and decided to eat it, I found a piece of rock in my food. First time this has ever happened.

The funniest part was actually finding the place. We kept looking at the Yelp photos of the exterior, and the logo made us think the restaurant was in a large standalone building. Our Tesla kept navigating us to the same location, but we couldn't find what we expected. On our second pass, FSD actually pulled us right in front of the entrance--even in a red zone for a brief moment--just so we could finally see the Starlite sign. It honestly felt like the car knew we weren't recognizing the place. It was such a funny experience that made FSD seem almost human. Once inside, we were blown away. The interior is absolutely top-notch--stylish, elegant, and full of character. The pistachio dessert and the chocolate mousse were pure heaven, rich, smooth, and beautifully presented. The hidden disco room with the waterfall is simply insane and adds such a unique vibe to the experience. Even the restrooms are thoughtfully designed and incredibly cool. Starlite isn't just a place for dessert--it's an experience from the moment you arrive until you leave.

When I point out none of this is advertised anywhere, I'm informed it's on Open Table, and that we should've seen it there, and were dismissed. They said they could give us another restaurant recommendation and then proceeded to just dismiss us without even that courtesy. We go back to verify this age limit, and it's there... one TINY line 2 scrolls down on the page, WAY beyond any of the information needed to just book a table, which is the only thing Open Table is used for.

After an afternoon drive along Sunset Cliffs, taking in the stunning ocean views and golden hues of the Pacific, we found ourselves craving Thai flavors that would match the beauty of the sunset. Soi OB delivered exactly that. The moment we stepped inside, the aroma of sizzling spices and freshly cooked meats was enough to confirm we had made the right choice. With so many tempting options on the menu, we decided to start with a few dishes that promised both crunch and rich flavor. Spicy Chicken Wings - These golden crispy wings offered a perfect balance of heat and flavor. The crunch is satisfying, and the sauce packs a punch without overwhelming the palate Thai Crispy Chicken Wings - these wings are fried to perfection, served with a house sweet sauce that enhances their savory goodness. The texture is light and crispy, making them an excellent appetizer. Khao Moo Kob Moo Dang- This dish is a fried crispy pork belly, served over rice with a rich, flavorful sauce. The pork belly is beautifully crisp, making each bite a delightful experience. Overall Experience Soi OB impresses with its dedication to authentic Thai street food. The ingredients are fresh, the flavors are bold, and the service is friendly. Whether you're craving crispy wings or a hearty rice dish, this spot delivers a satisfying meal in a laid-back setting. read more

Soi OB is an absolute gem! The Khao Soi here is hands down one of the best I've ever had in the US--rich, flavorful, and the perfect balance of spice and creaminess. It's a dish that truly hits the spot every time. If you're a fan of Northern Thai cuisine, this is a must-try! One thing to keep in mind, though, is that if you're ordering takeout, definitely plan ahead. They aren't the fastest when it comes to getting your order out, so ordering well in advance is a smart move if you're in a rush. But honestly, the wait is totally worth it for food this good. The vibe gives small mom and pop restaurant. read more
