    This is my favorite Thai food that I've had in the whole peninsula! My favorite dish to have is the drunken noodles with tofu. I've tried many other items that are just as delicious. The egg rolls, spring rolls and curry puff are all divine. One of my other favorite parts is the fresh coconut water with tender coconut. It is so amazing! Staff is prompt and helpful. The ambiance is always lovely with nice natural light, decorations, music and a clean interior. I can't wait to try the whole menu.

    I was rolling with my uncle in his rocket ship from San Francisco to Half Moon Bay where we saw an amazing performance of live spoken word poetry in English, Poetry in French, and accompanied with guitar with electronic music. Afterwards we checked out the beach for a hot minute and rolled here. Spice Me Thai Cuisine was quite alright. I recently was in Thailand. I spoke basic Thai with our servers who were kind hailing from Thailand. My uncle and I are both vegetarian. He is vegetarian and I am vegan. We both loved that many options on the menu offer a clearly marked vegetarian option. Easy enough to make it vegan. We both went with the drunken noodles. He had it with egg. I had no egg. We were able to add tofu at no additional charge. We both enjoyed it and was a hearty portion. My uncle gives it 3.5 stars. I give it 4 stars. He is a tougher critic than I perhaps. One suggestion for improvement would be more vegetables. Thanks Spice Me Thai Cuisine for dishing up tasty Thai cuisine in Half Moon Bay with heaps of vegetarian options on your menu!

    just wanted to update since I've been here a lot since my first review. First off, unfortunately I don't think the Pad See Ew is gluten free- I'm a very sensitive celiac and I did get sick. BUT, there are lots of other gluten free options that I've had and have been fine; yellow chicken curry, chicken sate', spring rolls, and Tom Kha - chicken soup (amazing! and amazingly consistent - it hits all the right notes and a friend and I share a bowl every time we go) to name a few.

    My friend was craving Thai food so we stopped by to try this place. The food was delicious and service was fast and a little too friendly. The server teased one of us which was funny but also a little mean. Maybe that's why the food tasted good. We were a little humiliated making us want to stress eat. Anywho I got the pad Thai. Large servings and very savory.

    Spicy basil chicken lunch special with a vegetable soup

    I stopped by around lunchtime so I tried their #3 lunch special spicy basil chicken with egg fried rice. All I can say is WOW it was so fresh, flavorful, and delicious! The inside of the restaurant is very clean with nice decorations. I was served by Panwad and her team & they were very nice and hospitable. I definitely recommend you try them out whenever you're nearby!

    My friends and I enjoyed our dining experience here at Spice Me! I decided to branch out from normally getting Pad Se Ew or Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles). I usually make larb at home but I decided to order Larb Sed which has duck which is not offered in a lot of Thai restaurants I've tried, nor have I ever thought to make! It was SO good. The only criticism I'd give is that I didn't get extra big pieces of romaine lettuce; the lettuce was cut small into like cups. The larb was on top of a large piece of lettuce so I found it interesting that I did get any more bigger pieces. The larb was surprisingly not too greasy with duck and probably my favorite larb I've had so far! I also liked the different spice sauces that came with the table. They each brought a different type of heat for spice lovers. It is worth a mention and to recommend the curry puff! Unfortunately I did not get a picture as my friend ordered it and it was demolished quickly, but the bite that I had was SO good. The pastry was perfectly light and the filling was so good. It's perfect for vegan/vegetarians as well. I'd love to come back and order that again. Highly recommend if you love Thai food!

    Decorated for Halloween

    After years of coming to Half Moon Bay, I never knew there was a Thai restaurant downtown. It's just off Main Street and I happened upon it during the pumpkin festival parade as I was circumnavigating the crowds. They are very welcoming and service stayed on point despite being extra busy during the festival. Every table was full but our food arrived quickly. I got a cup of the Tom Kha soup-best I've had. The flavors really came through nicely. I also got the tofu spring rolls-those were average but fine. When I packed up half to go, they made sure to send me off with a side of their peanut dipping sauce. Tables were spaced very close together but overall, because of their high ceilings, it didn't seem to cramped. They were festively decorated for Halloween, which was a nice touch. Great place in HMB that I'll need to try out again. They do have lunch specials during the week that looked like a great deal for those visiting M-F.

    Pad se ew with beef
    Deadra T.

    On our most recent trip to The Ritz Carlton, Half Moon Bay, Spice Me Thai was recommended by the concierge and valet, when we asked if there was a Thai place in town. Spice me Thai is in Downtown HMB. The service was excellent from the moment we stepped foot in the restaurant until we paid our bill. No wait to be seated. The food was AMAZING! Clean, fresh, quality, delicious food. I had the pad se ew with beef and my husband had the spicy basil chicken. Both plates were great! My husband ate his whole plate. I can't eat that much so luckily I had left overs. The restaurant is simple. No frills. Homey ambience. Pricing is very reasonable and the portions are generous. There is plenty of free parking. We will definitely be back. I'm already craving it. I highly recommend trying this place out. You will be glad you did. Bon appétit!

    Larb Tofu (not on the menu but they can substitute out the meat) spice level 3 out of 5.
    Preena B.

    Best Larb Tofu salad I've ever had!! The service was very good and people were friendly and welcoming. Ambience was cute, the restaurant was also really clean. Prices are also reasonable. I am 100% coming back!

    Shrimp coconut milk soup!! Taste so so good!! No lie!
    Mark S.

    I don't understand what the haters are talking about. So far me and my wife gone to this restaurant and haven't seen those issues that they speak of. Food is wonderful, service is amazing and overall vibe is on point. Will definitely be coming back to this place everytime we are in half moon bay or the area. For those reading this, disregard the hating because this place is wonderful.

    Soup

    OMG!! The coconut soup was SO RICH and flavorful, I savored every spoonful and didn't want it to end. Then came my server recommended dish Spice me clay pot with seafood and honestly the menu description does NOT do it justice!! It had a broth at the bottom that was absolutely LOADED with flavor explosion. I usually add heat to every dish and I just didn't want to because it was so so perfect just the way it was!! I want to eat this every day!

    Chicken Larb
    Norman L.

    Great food and service, really sweet owners! My wife is Thai and she loves it here. We come from San Francisco just to eat here!

    Pad see ew
    Alexandra K.

    No wait to be seated and very friendly and attentive staff. The Tom kha was to die for!! So yummy and delicious. It had nice chopped veggies that were cut in small enough pieces not to choke you - which is sometimes hard to come by with soups. The pad see ew noodles were perfectly cooked and soft. I got the chicken version and it was pretty good. The chicken wasn't over cooked or anything but I wish the dish had been a bit spicy. It was as mild as possible

    I never write reviews but this place is something special. Everything I've tried has been amazing…read more The food is authentic and full of flavor for reasonable prices. This place should be much busier considering how much better it is than the other restaurants in HMB. I grew up in a place with lots of high quality Asian food, and this is the only restaurant that can compete. Only thing to note is that the place is small so you won't be able to bring a huge crowd.

    I have visited numerous times over the last two years, and I am still amazed by the complexity of…read moreflavors in every dish. Pad See Ew: Perfectly chewy noodles and tender beef in a sauce that balances sweet, savory, and smoky notes. Spicy Basil Chicken: A delectable chili sauce packed with umami and fragrant Thai basil. Kao Neaw Neaur Kem: Tender, smoky Thai-style beef jerky served over a bed of perfectly sticky rice. Moo Yang Kao Neaw: Marinated grilled pork that is delectably smoky and garlicky with just the right hint of sweetness. Kao Moo Dang: Fragrant jasmine rice topped with BBQ pork, sausage, and a killer house-made sauce. Wham Rolls: They come with a house-made tamarind peanut dipping sauce that is ridiculously good- it's worth getting the rolls just to be blown away by that creative dipping sauce. On my last visit, the cashier recognized me from the countless times I visited Bangkok House and Spice Me.  She shared that the owner--the woman with the glasses who greets everyone with a genuine smile--had been a cook at one of the restaurants for years and had dreamed of having her own restaurant. With the opening of What a Meals, she finally stepped out on her own. Knowing that this food comes from someone following her lifelong dream makes every bite taste even better! While it's long overdue, I love that the gastronomic diversity of the Bay Area is finally expanding to the coast so locals have cuisine options beyond fried seafood/Italian/Mexican.

    Amazing Thai food!!!…read more The flavor and taste was so rich absolutely my favorite Thai food in the west San Jose Cupertino area. Recommend joining the waitlist before hand if you can if not be prepared for a short wait. It's a very casual spot but would still be good for a satisfying meal. Wouldn't recommend for a date night. The shrimp rolls and pad see ew were my favorite! And their spice is spicy so be careful. I've even doordashed because I enjoy the flavors/food so much!

    I heard people rave about this so I may have just chosen wrong. I normally get pad see ew at Thai…read moreplaces but I decided to branch out and get the khao soi noodle soup to try something different and on a recommendation. The broth was incredible. I'm hesitant with coconut based broths sometimes as it can be too rich (or taste like the stabilizing gums) but this broth was tempered with spices and the perfect balance. Unfortunately the tofu tasted weird - like super sour, as if it had spoiled or something. The crunch noodles on top were wheat based instead of rice based to get the crunch but the flavor was so noticeably "wheat-y" that it didn't mesh well with the other dish flavors. The Thai tea was also diluted and not as strong as usual. But my friends pad kee mao tasted delicious so maybe just stick with the classics. Logistics: - indoor seating only - plenty of strip mall parking in front - very busy on a Sunday night, add yourself to the Yelp waitlist as soon as you arrive
