Lots of free parking nearby and 5 mins away from Venice beach makes it a perfect early dinner option after you are done falling in love with a HMB sunset on a sunny clear non-windy day :) In $60 (before tip), we got: 1. Crispy fish sp4 - 4/5 - there was nothing wrong in this at all but i feel a kick was missing in it. Fish was tender inside, crispy outside. Huge portion size. It doesn't come with any sides. 2. Pineapple curry with chicken mild - 3/5 - again, nothing wrong with the dish and huge portion. Red sauce base with veggies, pineapple and chicken. Doesn't come with rice. 3. Rice - 5/5 - $3 for 1 portion of rice seemed expensive to me 4. Tom kha soup - chicken - 5/5 - loved the creamy coconut milk base soup with chicken, mushroom, onions :) we ordered medium and it was plenty for 3 of us!! Clean restrooms and friendly staff :) No outdoor seating. read more

We went in for lunch on a Saturday and were seated immediately. What I loved the most in the menu is that you can order soups by the cup for 1 serving, 2 servings, or 4 servings. I've never seen this option at a Thai restaurant before, so for being the only person who wanted to order soup, this was the best option! Our order was the duck spring rolls, fried chicken and fried rice, and the tom kha goong (seafood) soup. The food came out fairly quickly and was all delicious. The Tom Kha soup was also a lot more spicy than any other Tom Kha that I've had in the past. The total came to be around $46 before tax and tip. There is 1 all-gender restroom. As for parking, there is only street parking outside and no parking lot. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

It was delicious! 2nd we ordered the garlic fish, crunchy, flakie, sweet salty, and with he spicy fish sauce! Bam! Punch in the mouth tasty! Would definitely be coming back with the wifie! I'm glad I found this spot! read more

Small portion, mainly watery sauce and not much flavor. Food tasted like some pre-made sauce was poured over. Bad expensive Thai food. The chef should try harder to make food more flavorful and authentic. Maybe try Baan Thai in Orinda. No comparison. It is heart breaking becasue we love Thai food. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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 read more

Spicy Thai Me - Flavor Firepower Before a Beach Day Tucked in Half Moon Bay, Spicy Thai Me is the kind of low-key gem that makes your taste buds do a little happy dance. Think Farmhouse Thai-level flavor without the Palo Alto price tag or wait time. The larb chicken wings are a must--crispy, tangy, and packed with herbs and lime in every bite. Pair that with their Thai salad, which is basically an aromatherapy session you can eat: lemongrass, mint, chili, and that perfect vinegar kick. Pro tip: Order the wings + Thai salad with a side of white rice and papaya salad for the ultimate pre-beach feast. Then head to the better beach past the baseball field (skip the crowded state park) and enjoy the cliffside views like a local. Park on the street, save a few bucks, and rack up some Fitbit steps while you're at it. Lunch doesn't get much better than this--unless you bring a Thai iced tea for the road. read more

Average food. Only Thai restaurant in half moon Bay Area close to beach. Bathroom could be cleaner. Restaurant's inventory was out in the restaurant area. Food quality was less than other Thai restaurants and veggie quantity was tiny too. Overall, I would avoid going again! read more

Ahh such a good find. I enjoyed everything here! We came at opening and there was no one there. We got to sit anywhere we wanted. Service was very kind and attentive. What we ordered: crab cakes, duck spring roll, beef pad see ew, shrimp red curry + garlic rice, Thai iced tea, and a Thai iced coffee. I thought the main course prices were reasonably priced! I thought maybe the 3 duck spring rolls could have been 4 considering the price. Loved the crab cakes and how it was made with REAL crab! Who knew wasabi cream would be good?? Wow the red curry with garlic rice is a great pairing. So freaking delicious. I really enjoyed my pad see ew as well. I appreciate when my noodles are over mixed and broken. Props to them keep them still in tact. Cute interior as well. Thank you Panwad for the great service and team for the very satisfying meal! I highly recommend!! read more

After a long drive to Half Moon Bay, we were looking for a plack to pickup dinner an Spice Me popped up on Yelp and looked like it had good reviews. It was close to our AirBnb and is pretty centrally located to Half Moon Bay. I couldn't find a website, but luckily their menu was clear in the pictures on Yelp! My husband and I eat Thai often, and anytime we try a new place we order our "go to-s" which is Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles, both with Tofu. They had a lot of spring roll options as well, so I opted for the Fresh Veggie spring rolls because I always love the peanut sauce that usually comes with them. And of course I couldn't resist a thai iced tea :) It was easy to order on the phone and they said everything would be ready in just 15 minutes so I headed out promptly. The restaurant was easy to find and I was happy to see parking right out front. I went on a Sat night around 8pm and there was plenty of street parking spots available. The restaurant was not busy, so if we had wanted to dine in we would have been able to sit at a table right away. The order was already ready when I arrived, and paying at the register was quick and straight forward. The thai iced tea tasted good, it had a pretty strong tea flavor and I was picking up on one ingredient that was heavier than the rest but I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. The fresh veggie spring rolls were tasty, lots of greens in them so plenty of crunch. I was a little skeptical of the peanut sauce at first because it was so orange, but it was very good! I would happily eat that all day. The pad thai was also good, pretty standard and I probably would have liked a slightly stronger taste for the sauce, but the tofu tasted very good and I liked that they included a lemon. My husband's drunken noodle was not as traditional as we normally received, it had tomatoes and lettuce included. He also said the sauce was a little bland for him. Overall I think this is a good option if you're staying in Half Moon Bay, and very convenient and quick, read more

Must try for all Thai food lovers! I ordered the yellow curry with shrimp, garlic rice, pad see ew, and crab fried rice. All of which were amazing in flavor, presentation, and such generous portions! I love how they offer garlic rice, which is an Asian culture specialty! There were chunks of garlic I was so happy to see this on the menu it was perfect. I also ordered the green Thai milk tea which not many Thai restaurants have so when it's in the menu it is a MUST! It's a crossover between an iced matcha & Thai milk tea...AMAZING. Overall, I will now be a regular at Spice me. The customer service and food were a 10/10. read more

I ordered a take out pad Thai it was bland and no flavor and no peanut sauce which make pad Thai taste better .

Just got shrimp rolls through DoorDash. Flavors were good; huge rolls. But they fell apart the second I picked them up. Furthermore, each roll had 2 small shrimp. Don't recommend ordering them. This is the second time I ordered them with the same result. read more

No idea why it's taken us so long to try a Thai restaurant in HMB, but we finally did! We came in on a Friday around lunch. (As a quick note they close for a few hours in the afternoon) They have a pretty extensive menu with a lot of different protein options (including salmon and duck). Prices were a little steep. Especially for the portions, but the food was pretty good. The tamarind salmon was a little too sweet for my husband, but the panang curry was great. Highly recommend the garlic rice to add a little more depth to your main dishes. The Thai tea wasn't as sweet/creamy as I like, but my husband enjoyed it. We will definitely be back to try out a few more dishes. Service was lovely and we were in an out pretty quickly. read more

I've been here a few years times in HMB and enjoy it. It's not the best Thai food I've ever had, but it's pretty darn good. I called one hour ahead and reserved a table for seven. The masaman curry was awesome, but I would prefer a stronger peanut flavor in the peanut sauce. The service was fast and the food came out quickly. Our group split the bill onto two credit cards and both left a 20% tip. After double checking the bill we realized they had already added 20% for a large group. So we ended up tipping a lot more than we needed to, which was a bit annoying because it would have been nice if they would have mentioned it when the brought the check. But also we could have actually read the bill. Nonetheless, they deserved it and we enjoyed our meal. read more

A cute and simple dining room with great lighting and decently comfortable seating. The vegetable egg rolls were so so scrumptious and the green curry was delicious and a big serving so I didn't finish it while I was there but might have been even better the second day for leftovers.
