    Green Curry - Chicken
    Neil G.

    Not going to beat around the bush as we came here to celebrate my fiancé's birthday dinner, the ambiance is like an old worn down cafeteria, the service was bad and the food was mediocre to abysmal, I've never had such mixed feelings about Thai food as I LOVE Thai cuisine however with the entree's we ordered I have to say I was very much underwhelmed, the appetizer combo was a mixed bag of ok and mediocre, especially the shrimp tempura which had a tiny shrimp and all wrapping. If you decide to come here, the Pad Thai was actually decent and the Yum Nua but the rest of our order was just plain weird. I've had many FANTASTIC Thai Food especially when I used to live near Hollywood by Thai town - The Green Curry here I have to say has a weird after taste, It seemed the overwhelming amount of basil and green curry paste took over the flavor, it lost the balance of the coconutty delicate spicy creaminess you typically get from a Thai green curry, it was not good. My all time FAVORITE, Tom Yum soup was abysmal, First it was served in a rinky dink bowl not even the typical flaming Tom Yum pot, the shrimp was so tiny it was ridiculous and to add injury to my disappointment, the soup was sweet with just a hint of sour - again, totally missed the flavor of a typical mouthwatering Tom Yum soup and what happen to the lemon grass? This Tom Yum was an epic fail next to the Tom Yum served by Thai restaurant in Yorba Linda near Bradford - just no, absolute - NO. The Fried Rice and PadThai are just ok but as a birthday dinner for my fiance, I expected more, gambled & lost. We DID NOT enjoy our meal and experience contrary to recommendations, I guess it was good prior to covid but looking at the pictures here on yelp it doesn't even resemble how the interior of the restaurant look now - it looked run down and what made our experience worst was the service - just terrible, our server seem to be in a rush and just decides to bolt away whenever she wants especially while we are still placing our orders, she doesn't even bother to offer water and begrudgingly refilled my fiance's cup when I asked if she could please refill the cup. She was actually rude, I wasn't sure if she was having a bad day but once you start serving paying customers you should leave your personal drama out the door. The attitude is more sour than the Tom Yum. To be honest I love supporting small businesses and hole in the walls however without the business/employees making the effort to deliver what is expected whether food, ambiance, especially service, I couldn't bring myself to come back at this place again nor make a recommendation. Such a shame. All the best and good luck.

    Unfortunately, I had better Thai cuisine than what I ate here. This lovely place serves very small food portions for the same price that other Thai restaurants sell. I should've looked at the review photos before arriving. The service is great! The mother-and-father owners are very friendly, and their 16-year old daughter is so wonderful to help out the parents. I do give so much credit for her to be working that young and supporting her family's restaurant. She can handle the work alone when her parents are not around at the front. Kudos to her!

    I have been coming here since my college days, which is well over 10 years ago. I love Thai food and this mom-and-pop place is so charming and delicious! First off, I love their ambiance and how they designed it. It is traditional and their wall painting with the small waterfall is my favorite spot to sit. Food wise -- I have had their noodles and meat dishes. I love the Pad See Ew for noodles and their Crying Tiger Beef for meats. It is flavorful and love the Thai spices. An awesome deal is their meal that includes a soup, salad, and egg roll. Yum!

    I had a horrible experience from here today I ordered via Postmates and found a bug in my food . I ordered shrimp friend rice with extra veggies and eggs very disappointed .

    Chicken Curry (med spice level) "TO-GO
    Ta'Hari J.

    Came with white rice as well. I've been sticking to masala craft when it comes to curry and have always been hesitant to try other spots. This wasn't bad but it's also not masala craft, lol. I'm shocked to taste how sweet the curry is, not used to that (maybe I'll try the hottest spice level next time) but overall not bad. I like that they give you the option to add veggies but the sweetness of the curry was honestly overwhelming. Also I think some Naan should be included with the dish, that's just me though. I'd definitely give it another shot though...only because I'm obsessed with all things curry.

    2. Pad See Ew Noodle  I took this from my plate and moved it out. I did not even finish the rest of my meal for this reason.
    Alondra O.

    I would give a 0. I'm sorry I don't usually do bad reviews but after yesterday this is a must and something has to change. I ordered pad se ew and bit into the chicken and spit it out cause I saw the other piece was raw. I had raw chicken in my mouth! We let one of the ladies know and apologized, but only offered a free Thai tea as an apology. That's unacceptable. No free meal or money back, just free Thai Tea. Hope the owner sees this because I will move on to bigger things to make sure this doesn't happen again.

My son called Culinary Dropout and spoke with Olivia, the hostess, to see if the kitchen was still serving. Olivia responded with genuine warmth and kindness, assuring us that the kitchen was still open and that they would be happy to welcome us. From the moment we arrived, Olivia's hospitality set the tone for an exceptional evening. She greeted us with a warm smile, made us feel genuinely welcome, and promptly seated us. Shortly after, our server, Layla, introduced herself. Despite the late hour, she was energetic, engaging, and had an infectious enthusiasm that elevated the entire dining experience. She expertly recommended several cocktails, along with a glass of wine, and her knowledge of both the bar program and the menu was impressive. Her recommendations for appetizers and entrées were spot on. We decided on the Wagyu Pigs in a Blanket, BBQ Nachos, and the Spicy Rigatoni. Every dish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. Another team member, Emanuel, delivered one of our dishes and was equally personable and engaging. He took the time to share information about the restaurant, further demonstrating the outstanding level of hospitality displayed by the entire team. Manager Dave also stopped by our table to check on our experience. We shared with him that this was, without question, one of the best dining experiences we've had in Orange County in quite some time. Great food certainly matters, but it was the exceptional service, genuine hospitality, and positive energy of the staff that made the evening truly memorable. A sincere thank you to Layla, Olivia, Emanuel, Dave, and the entire Culinary Dropout team for creating such a first-class dining experience. We look forward to returning soon and will gladly recommend your restaurant to family and friends.

Told us everything is made in-house, even the sauces! That's really good to know and makes me feel better about the food. She even gave me a free delicious cookie for being a first timer! And she comes around from time to time to check on us to make sure we're enjoying our food. Really nice to receive this kind of attention from a fast-casual restaurant. The Santa Maria BBQ Salad looked good but I asked her if they could substitute the chicken with the Chimichurri steak and she said "sure!" And surprisingly they did not charge extra! I love restaurants that are flexible like this. My salad bowl was SO good and filling. Lots of good stuff in it: chopped salad mix, coleslaw mix, Applewood-smoked bacon, crumbled goat cheese, corn & black bean salsa, grape tomatoes. Served with chipotle ranch dressing and blackberry BBQ sauce on the side, and a fresh baked focaccia bread. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the cold meat. I was under the impression that the meat was going to be hot. My BF got the Southwestern Sandwich. It was delicious. All the Southwestern flavors were there but not overwhelming. The sandwich was hot and juicy. For a restaurant that makes everything from scratch, their prices are very affordable. Both our meals were only $27 total.

Drink Iced Nutella latte 2/5: the coffee flavor was there, but the Nutella did not blend well. Sweet Spaniard 4/5: was a great balance of all flavors Food: Avocado toast 3/5: there were a lot of sprouts and it needed more salt and pepper. Overall a good size of toast and the tomato's made it better. Nutella and strawberry Crepe 4/5: this was good, but I wish it had more Nutella. It cut perfectly and the strawberries were so fresh. Steak and egg sandwich 3/5: the size of the sandwich was great, but the flavor profile was lacking. An aioli spread would have elevated this sandwich. The steak was cooked perfectly and it seemed to be the main flavor.

You're going to pay sit down restaurant prices while eating out of paper plates. $20 chicken kebab plus tax and tips - that is the exact same price as at Panini Kabob Grill. The pricing point is kind of a stretch for work lunch hour meals. I'm not sure that too many people are going to be willing to pay $25 for their lunches but the quality of food seems to be on point and that is rare around the downtown area where most restaurants serve burgers, fries, and all sort of deep fried dishes. For that price, honestly, my bigger beef was eating out of paper plates. Chipotle does this, but their meals are a lot more generous and cheaper. I think you should definitely give this place a try at least once and then decide whether to come back by yourself. The food was good.
