The food was good, except some of the pate was a tiny bit burnt. The pad see ew was also pretty good. Waited 15 mins for food, and there's no seating, strictly takeout. I would come back if I was in the area. Only downside was the price for the portions. | IG: Smackinfood read more

With a new location comes a new sense of energy and a truer form of Thai food. This place has come around from my previous visit a few years ago and I'm happy to have given it another try. There are so many delicious meals that they have re-invented here. One of my personal favorites is the Pad Thai and the Sweet Angel stuffed chicken. If your order from their house special menu. You can get a specialty item like the chicken, fish trout etc. and a side of fried rice, it's usually shrimp or chicken. Another portion of the menu showcases their many Curry options. My favorites are the: yellow, red and Panang curry. Exploring Thai BBQ's menus is an adventure of Asia and it's fascinating spices and home grown flavors. I love the new location (in the Fairmont Shopping Center in Pacifica) and the favorites on their menu. The customer service has vastly improved and so has the food. I encourage others to comeback and support this Restuarant, especially during this pandemic. read more

Great tasting food now at the new spot at the Fairmont Center in Pacifica. Yummy dishes of Spicy Beef Salad, Panang Curry w/Beef, & Wings of Angel (stuffed, boneless chicken wings). Good portions, reasonable prices & packed w/flavor. Thinking this will be one of my new go-to places! Note: Call ahead. She said 15-20 minutes and it was ready in 10! Fast service is appreciated when I'm hungry! read more

New go to place if I'm near Skyline Blvd. Combo soup filled with meats, vegetables and nice savory broth. Chicken coconut soup was generous with chicken and mushrooms, coconut broth was nicely balanced with lemongrass, lime, kefir leaves and a touch of heat. Beef salad was also tasty but a bit soggy. No dine in at this time and sometimes difficult to call in an order because they're so busy to pick up. Used Yelp to order with easy process. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area. read more

Was looking around the area for a good place for a quick bite and this was located nearby. I tried to order via the phone for a pickup, but I was unable to get through. So I just decided to walk over and placed it instead. The lady at the counter was very nice and took my order easily. I asked for a delayed order, and she was more than happy to help me with that. She was wearing masks and gloves from what I could tell. I picked up my food when I was able to head out on my break and got their lunch special basil chicken. It comes with one bowl of rice and a helping supply of the entree itself. Overall, it aaa alright. It did taste like basil chicken, but I wish it was a bit spicier. It didn't have any kick to it, which disappointed me. Still, the customer service in person was nice and the food was decent. I would think about coming back here again read more

I have 16 checkins and I'm just now writing a review. Hard to imagine I'd be back 16 times if this place was horrible. This spot has always been consistent for me. If I'm alone, it's always the S-1, BBQ Chicken with fried rice and shrimp. The chicken is always tender on the inside, with the outside slightly charred. Yum! My wife always gets the Garlic Short Ribs. That stuff is crack! I love that too. Sometimes I get the pineapple fried rice which is also pretty good. I've also tried the beef noodle soup and the beef/chicken satay. The soup is okay. Some might find it a little too simple and too salty. The satay is also good, not great. The place is small, and kind of run down, if you ask me. The bathrooms are definitely not 5 star, but luckily I don't spend much time in there. People come here for reasonable priced Thai BBQ, kind of like the sign above the entrance says. Come here for a no frills lunch or dinner, but maybe go a little more upscale if you're trying to impress your "swipe right" date. read more

Been coming to this restaurant even when they were still located back at their original spot at Gellert. They moved to a new location by Hickey BLVD, but their menu and the quality of their food hasn't changed. They don't have anymore indoor seating like what they had before which is a bummer because their food especially their soups are so great when served in a hot pan. Their to-go foods are still very good quality. read more

Thai Original BBQ is our go to Thai spot. My husband even orders from them for his company lunches. Tonight, I placed an order via DoorDash. I wanted to order the Larb but there was an issue with the app; it was asking for a protein but wouldn't let me make a selection. I ordered the Wings of Angel Appetizer (it was the same price as the Larb) but noted in the special instructions that we wanted the Larb. The order was delivered and we got the Larb! I love how they followed the special instructions. There are so many places that don't. Excellent service! read more

I ordered takeout from here yesterday for the first time with my coworkers. I ordered the pad see ew and it was so delicious! My coworkers ordered the pad Thai, chicken satay, and pad kee mao and they all loved it! I'm so excited to head back to this Thai restaurant and try their other dishes! I highly recommend trying them out if you're in the area and craving some Thai food. They only do takeout. read more

Thai Original BBQ is a convenient spot to order some delicious Thai delivery or take-out. The location is a wee bit hidden, being around the corner of the Starbucks. That being said, there is typically a lot of parking here which is very convenient since it is part of a larger plaza. The interior is quite small with only one or two small tables. If you're coming here, you are most certainly going to order take-out. The food here is pretty good. I've tried their pad thai and pad see ew quite often and enjoyed both. Their pad thai has a slightly unique taste to it from the bits of onions they mixed in with the noodles which add a delicate sweetness to the dish. Their vegetable dishes are not shabby as well with their broccoli and mushroom dish being surprisingly tasty with hints of oyster sauce. read more

This is my favorite Thai spot near me! I usually either order online or on the phone and the wait times are pretty accurate. The space is really small but there are tables outside for people to eat! I haven't personally eaten in the area since I usually just take it to-go. I love the chicken satay dinner plate from here! The proportions are quite big. The thai tea I also enjoy but I wish they could offer a larger size for it. I think that the pricing is reasonable for the amount they offer as well. Can't wait to try whatever else they offer! read more

This place has perfect pad see ew. Soft meat and lots of flavor. Also a kind owner. I'll be back!

Food is absolutely delicious, curry is tasty and spicy. Pad see we is yummy. Would recommend coming back

Decided to break away from my usual delivery spots and man am I happy I did! I was craving a salad so I got the spicy beef salad. It was pretty good! The beef was overcooked but the flavor was nice. I also got the calamari rings thinking they would be just like regular calamari. They weren't. Now, I'm not saying they are better or worse but the sauce that comes with it is soooo good! It's this sweet and spicy almost honey-like sauce. The breading was better than I thought it would be but it is too heavy to eat in one meal. Also I pealed off a lot of the breading in the end. But the star of this order and the whole reason I have to get food from here again is those angel wings!!! Again they are pretty heavy so easily can be a meal on its own. But they were so delicious! They are chicken wings stuffed with glass noodles and meat, then fried. The texture was amazing, the flavor was fantastic, and it came with that yummy sauce. My mouth is watering just thinking about them. I definitely want to try other dishes at this restaurant but will always have to get those angel wings! read more

I always come here for the ribs (S2) and the crab rice. We even had parties at their restaurant when they were still at Gellert. My first time ordering again since the pandemic. M very disappointed at their food now. The ribs were very dry and burnt. Seems like it's old and had been reheated over and over. The same with the crab balls. Food us different now. Not fresh. I hope they bring back the kind of food that they served before. read more

Our usual go to order of eggplant with basil, bbq chicken and curry at Thai Original BBQ. We both love the eggplant dish (really good) but some of the bbq chicken was too charred. It was a disappointment. read more

3.5 stars. This restaurant located in a strip mall is primarily a to-go place. There are a couple of small tables outside if you need to eat there. We ordered the pad Thai which defaults to shrimp, drunken noodles (pad kee mao) with beef (choose your meat), and Thai iced tea. The pad Thai was a bit over seasoned as it packed a power punch of flavor. It would have been perfect if it was a little toned down. The drunken noodles were great: tasty and not too spicy. The tea came in a paper wax cup and wasn't very big but it was good. There was a strong smell of garbage right outside the restaurant. Maybe there was a garbage dump pile nearby. It would be difficult to eat there for this reason plus it was cold out. read more

This place brings back so many memories, they use to be located right next to OSH and my coworkers and I would frequently eat here for lunch or dinner. Other times where when we would go here after football practice and the staff would always be the best to us. I'm so happy they found a new location. We ordered the catfish curry, the ribs S2, chicken S1 and Phan See-ew. Man it's been over 5 years but the taste is still the same, plain and simply delicious read more

A solid local thai joint that's no secret to many in the area. This place has become my go to since moving to Pacifica as it's probably the best Thai food unless you're willing to spend X amount more for quickly diminishing returns for Thai food in the city (SF). Almost everything from the pad thai, basil eggplant and bbq dishes are all up to par. Only gripe is the fact that their phone is off the hook so you're forced to show up and order in person. That said it's a 3.75/5 which I rounded up. read more

They recently changed locations and I do have to say this place is a lot smaller than their old place. They only allow one customer in at all times due to COVID. Definitely call ahead so you don't have to possibly wait in line/outside in the cold. There was also plenty of parking. We ordered pad see ew and panang curry. Their pad see ew with chicken was cooked perfectly! The flavor was great and the broccoli wasn't too hard or too soft. Their panang curry with chicken was definitely different, but in a good way! They added jalapeño which added more spice to the dish. Both of the orders with tax added up to ~$25. The price honestly isn't that bad compared to some other places. My boyfriend and I shared the two meals at home with some rice and even had leftovers. I'll be back when I crave Thai food again so I can try the other items in their menu. read more

One of my favorite places to go locally for Thai food. I can always count on this place when it comes to consistency in serve and food quality. If you come during the week there are lunch specials which are reasonably priced. Plus, the portions tend to be fairly generous in comparison to other places Parking is close and spacious. The food is great. I order the spicy drunken noodles with beef and it is always better than the last time. The flavor of the food always has a good blend of sweet spices mixed in that simmers in your mouth. Always a good place for a meal on any day of the week. #perfect read more

This place was far from good I ordered 1, Thai BBQ chicken , 2. Beef Satay and a order of Pad Thai Thai food staples the pad Thai was ok large pieces of shrimp descent dish but the meat entree's items where horrible the beef was flavorless with a side of peanut sauce the chicken tasted like they re-served Costco Rotisserie chicken . Stay away better places out there. Im usually not this brutal and one of my few negative yelp reviews but you be the judge here are some pics. read more

We got take out from here and food was tasteless and overtly spicy. We ended up throwing the entire order.

Yes I am super impressed with this place. You first drive into this small strip mall. that has four parallel parking lanes. My advice to you is when you try to find parking. First find the place and park closest to the street. This is because most of the stall next to the buildings are taken, Also spaces are easy to find also you only walk several car lengths. You walk into the place , the first thing I notice is that it is very clean. You are greeted with a smile and taken to a table. Wasn't busy for a Friday night. We where seated next to one of several salt water fish tanks. Menus are set on the table. Water is given. I am always impressed with the menu here . Not too many choices. Orders are made to your liking. We order the Salmon dinner with crab fried rice. Delicious. I had the Dearest Crab dinner. How yum was that. Simple and tasty. We finished off the evening with FBI (fried banana ice cream) . read more

I'm Thai and they are close to my house. Their BBY chicken is decent and a few noodle dishes but their rice does not resemble any Thai rice I have ever had. It is orange and gummy. I go there for convenience and location, but otherwise, I'd stick to the That places in South SF and Burlingame. read more

Second visit: I managed to ward off the plastic utensils. OMG the beef satay was so good. Tender, flavorful. BBQ was juicy and flavorful. Did not love the shrimp fried rice. It didn't seem fried, just flavored. Cucumber salad was great. Papaya salad was good. First visit: First time trying this place. The food was pretty good. Red curry, house special soup, chicken satay, BBQ pork, Thai iced tea. I ordered Thai spicy, but nothing was very spicy, so I don't know if they saw it. The pork was a little too ... porky ... for my taste. I'm not sure why, but I didn't love it. The satay was my favorite thing. And the Thai iced tea. I'm taking off one star, because they snuck a bunch of plastic utensils into my takeout bag. I'm so tired of this happening all the time. Pacifica has an ordinance requiring businesses to ask if people want plastic utensils. And there was even a sign in the restaurant that said something like, "If you want plastic utensils, please ask." Especially living near the ocean, we should care about this. I'm sure 99 percent of people getting takeout are taking their food home, where they can use their own forks and spoons. For those who are having a picnic, surely they can be expected to ask. read more

To go only at this time . My favorite dishes are the Basil Beef, Beef skewers dinner plate and the drunken vegetables. Pricey for what it is and rather small portion size of the Basil Beef but very tasty. read more

This is one of my Favorite restaurant since the 90's. They were always busy and very friendly staff. They also have the Best Delicious Thai Food and have tried all of the food in the menu. The satay chicken, fresh thai rolls, satay beef, pad thai, phadseew, and combination mix soup with shrimp, chicken, pork, and beef mix with vegetables are on top of my lists whenever I want something to go. Although I missed sitting down inside the restaurant at Gellert. They moved to Hickey in Pacifica and everytime we are starving we manage to order our food to go. Excellent Staff, Excellent Delicious Food and just so accommodating in what you ask them to add. Love this place! I also used them for my catering party trays for my social events. Thank You, Teep, Nok, Frank and everyone in the staff. I am so Blessed to have you in my world. read more

Thai Original BBQ is along Gellert Blvd. and located near Round Table and Ling Nam. There is plenty of parking nearby. The restaurant is on the smaller side and I believe they have a separate room if you were to have a large party. They also have a fish tank towards the front that has a few cute fishy. Today I ordered my usual, the panang curry with rice. It is a red curry with beef and a few slices of jalapeno that can easily be picked to the side if you don't want it. The menu states it may be spicy, but I have never found the curry to be spicy. I believe it's probably noted because of the jalapeno. Service is not consistent everyday. There are days where I sat there waiting to wave them over because we have been done for awhile and have been ready to pay. Luckily today they were very attentive. My mother and I were able to have a nice quick lunch before running errands. read more

Came here on a Tuesday night after trying 2 other restaurants that close on a Tuesday?? That's okay, because this place never fails in delivering delectable entrees. We've eaten here several times and its one our go to places. The usual favorites are the Tom Yum soup, papaya salad, BBQ pork ribs dinner, or barbeque chicken both come with shrimp fried rice, Thai beef salad and fried springs rolls. If there is any room left, after the HUGE portions, we get the banana roti with ice cream. This particular night, we tried something new. Tom Kha soup. That was delicious! The coconut milk and lime flavor was really savory and pleasant to the tastebuds. They brought out the pot with the sterno to keep the soup nice and hot. I could've just eaten that for my meal. Also new to order was the yellow curry my daughters choice, which how can you get curry wrong? I actually love coconut milk in cooking, its just makes food more hearty and comforting. I especially love eating gravy and rice, who needs the meat? SIL ordered Dearest Crab his favorite entrée, and I had a taste.as always, I like most anything fried and I see why he loves it. The shrimp fried rice is really just 2 pieces of shrimp place upon the fried rice. nothing too special but it looks colorful. We also ordered the garden spring rolls , BBQ pork ribs dinner, and Thai beef salad. I don't know why we ordered so much. I think we were just happy to be there and Hubby was not with us this time so we just went overboard, but had he come, we wouldn't have gotten the Tom Kha, because he likes the Tom Yum. I must've had 4 huge ribs on my plate, and I could only finish one and a half, after having bites of everything else. SIL got to have the leftovers for work. It's a lot of food and well worth the price. Staff is friendly and quick. The guy who served us was very attentive to make sure our drinks were filled and everything was to our satisfaction. read more

Great soup and they have a burner underneath the soup so it stays piping hot. The lunch menu is expanse and very reasonably priced at around eight dollars a dish. For some reason my wife is saying she didn't like the food this time because the chicken was cold but she wants to go back so disregard her opinion. She saying for the barbecue pork. So we will be going back once we get down south to daily city and you should check it out as well. read more
