    Went during lunch time, not busy. Ordered pad thai chicken. Food was good, sauce is not overpowering like other places, so that's a good thing.

    58. Yellow Curry`
    Madi P.

    Absolutely delicious!! The curry was super rich and flavorful. I got it with pork and there was plenty of meat and vegetables in it! It comes in a to-go container already which was convenient since I ended up taking it home as well. It also is served with rice! Although not pictured, my group got the corn fritters which I highly recommend, also super flavorful. We also ordered the mango sticky rice for dessert! Our server was excellent too!

    48. Sweet and Sour
    Catalina G.

    The food here is okay. The place is a little run down. The service was good. The ambiance was okay. There's parking out front. The red curry was very good but it was served in a paper bowl which took away from the quality i'd say. The sweet and sour chicken was just okay.

    "4" Shrimp Pad Thai - Tasty but could use another "3" shrimp
    Brian P.

    Overall I would recommend this place as the food is good, the booths are comfortable and the service and prices were decent. My only complaint was the amount of shrimp in my Pad Thai- the dish only came with 4 shrimp, call me picky but if you're going to change me for a particular Protien then give me enough to complement the carb...5 to 7 shrimp depending on the size should be the minimum...this would have pushed them from 3 to 4 stars easily.

    Pad thai lunch entree

    Thai Time III is a go-to for take-out nights when I stay with friends in Clairemont. Hard to beat their prices and speed for the quality! Wish I had a place like TT III in my neighborhood in the Bay. We usually get their pad thai, fried appetizers, curries, fried rice, and Thai tea. For the lunch entree with pad thai, an egg roll, and small salad, it's $12.50! The staff are always super quick and welcoming when we stop by. Parking is also easy in the complex. One of our favorite weeknight spots.

    Spinach Noodle - Lunch Special

    Thai Time 3 has been one of my two go to Thai spots for over a year now, mainly for their lunch special. The food tastes great, is well priced, and the staff is consistent and accommodating. In a year, I have never had a meal I was unsatisfied about. I've tried (too?) many Thai places in San Diego, TT3's consistency and price is unmatched. It is one of those local "hole in the wall" joints that you want to keep to yourself but you tell people because they deserve the customers.

    Pad thai with chicken
    Casey Z.

    Love this place! :) Stopped by for their lunch specials this week & they were tasty plus reasonably priced, compared to other restaurants in the area. We ordered the pad thai with chicken and pineapple fried rice with beef. Service was great and we parked right in front of the restaurant via a shared plaza parking lot with lots of spaces. Ambiance was cozy, lots of natural light in the afternoon & not super crowded. Excited to come back to try out all of the different types of lunch specials they have available (22 variations, to be exact lol)!

    Food was delicious and tasty, the Thai tea was very refreshing. We went during lunch time and were given a free vegetable roll and salad with our entrees. Overall a good experience.

    Food and service is amazing, Miriam our server is very friendly. I ordered shrimp fried rice and it is delicious.

    Great little spot and excellent service. Quick and simple little Thai food spot with a very large menu.

    (5/5) El Viejon…read moreSeafood is a hidden gem and one of my favorite seafood spots in San Diego. The restaurant has a great vibe, an excellent seafood selection, and delivers big flavors. The seating area is small and parking can be challenging, but the food more than makes up for it. The fish tacos were outstanding--some of the best I've had in San Diego. Both the smoked fish taco and the beer-battered fish taco were incredible and packed with flavor. The seafood tower was also amazing, fresh, and beautifully put together. The only item that missed the mark for me was the al pastor taco, which was a little too sweet for my taste. Everything else was excellent. If you're looking for quality seafood, amazing fish tacos, and a casual spot with great energy, El Viejon Seafood is definitely worth a visit. Service was nice and fast. Good tasting salsa selections

    ​We had a disappointing experience here, starting right when we walked in. They were busy at 2:30…read morePM on a Sunday, but unlike the customers before us, We received no welcome at all, which really ruined what could have been a better meal. I was in line right after a bunch of people, but as soon as it was my turn (I was also last in the line), the female cashier left and started cleaning tables without acknowledging me or letting me know she'd be right back. I was left standing there for an awkward three minutes until another guy who had been at the front the whole time dealing with sauces finally asked if I was ready to order. This left me feeling really out of place, especially since my husband and I were also the only non Spanish speaking in the restaurant at the time. ​As for the food, it was mixed feelings. The El Viejon burrito had good flavor, and I enjoyed the smokiness of the tuna and octopus. I would have liked more cabbage to give it some needed crunch because after a few bites, the burrito just felt kind of mushy. ​We also ordered the Papas Fritas, which were marked as a "must try" on their menu, but they are definitely NOT a must try. They turned out to be pretty boring fried sliced potatoes with just some hot sauce thrown over them. My husband said they were basically just hot potato chips. ​On the positive side, they do offer a nice condiment bar with a variety of salsas ranging from creamy, spicy, to sweet. They also had spicy pickled red onions and chile toreados. ​However, between the dismissive service and the average food textures, the overall experience was meh.

We came hungry and decided to share Combo #5, which came with a total of 5 lbs. of seafood along with corn and sausage all tossed together in the bag. It was definitely more than enough for our group to share, and we loved being able to dig in and try a little bit of everything! The sauce was one of the biggest highlights of the meal for us. It was so flavorful and really made the seafood even better. I also loved that you can choose your own spice level, so you can customize it depending on how much heat you can handle. We definitely appreciated having that option! Another dish we really enjoyed was the crab rangoon. These were so good because they actually use real crab, which made them taste even better and feel a little more elevated than your typical crab rangoon. I would definitely recommend ordering these as an appetizer! We also tried the garlic noodles. They were good and paired nicely with the seafood, but I do think they could use a little more flavor to really stand out. That was probably the one thing we felt could be improved. The service was a little slow during our visit, but overall the staff was nice and the food made up for the wait. We also got really lucky with parking, which is always a win in the Convoy area because the parking lot can get absolutely crazy depending on the time you go! Overall, we had a great time at Submarine Crab and really enjoyed the food, especially the flavorful sauce and the crab rangoon. It's definitely a fun spot to come with friends/family, share a big seafood boil, and get your hands messy. We would definitely come back again when we're craving some good seafood! (Probably next week...)

Malatang has become so popular in SD, especially around Convoy, and I've noticed several new spots opening up in just the past couple of years. We tried the Malatang with the classic bone broth and tom yum broth. Both were alright - the broths were lighter and not as heavy or rich as some other Malatang places. It's a good option if you prefer something less oily and more on the lighter side. Their fried desserts - the Coconut Lava Balls and Brown Sugar Glutinous Rice Cakes - were pretty good. They had just the right amount of sweetness and weren't overly sweet, making them a nice way to end the meal. Even though they now offer Malatang, their Chinese-style fish soups are still worth checking out. Their menu originally centered around dishes like suancai fish, a popular Chinese comfort food that's relatively new to the SD food scene. If you're not in the mood for Malatang, the Tangy Lemon Fish and Golden Beef Soup are solid alternatives. The ingredient selection is good, and the restaurant is clean and welcoming.

Since I'm not the biggest spice fan, I usually order the Tangy Lemon Fish and the Royal Tomato Fish. If you like spice, then I recommend the Signature and the Laotan Suancai and Fish - both have a nice numbing mala spice to them. Perfect combination of salty, sour, and spicy flavors. For each bowl, you start by picking whether you want the base to be snakehead or basa fish. You then select 4 sides from a list (I highly recommend the vermicelli). Additional sides cost extra. For a small sized bowl, 1 bowl of rice is included. For a large sized bowl, 2 bowls of rice are included. The large size is enough to feed 2 people. I'd recommend ordering at least 3 larges if your party is 3 or more people.

Ordering is super easy, they have self-service kiosks if you want to order on your own, or a staff member is available to help if you prefer. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, and since the weather was so nice, my boyfriend and I decided to sit outside. I actually came here because I was scrolling through Instagram and saw an amazing promotion. If you purchase any drink, you get a free protein bowl that's normally around $13! You can choose from shrimp, chicken, or fish, served over your choice of rice or lettuce. It was such an incredible deal. Our total came out to only about $4 for a bowl and a drink, which was honestly hard to beat. The service was excellent from start to finish. The staff was incredibly friendly, and our food came out quickly, fresh, and piping hot. The rice was perfectly seasoned and packed with flavor, and the entire bowl was absolutely delicious. I can definitely see myself ordering it again. The restaurant itself was also very clean, had a welcoming atmosphere, and the staff made the experience even better.

The chips were also very crispy despite their thick cut. I've not had chips like these anywhere else! They were truly one of a kind. While the chips were well-seasoned, the fish could've used a lil salt, although it's nothing that can't be fixed with some tartar sauce. If you dine in, the owner will bring out a metal bucket with some napkins, a water bottle, and a bottle of cocktail sauce to accompany your meal. They also have a special bottle of sauce for the fish, but I can't seem to remember the name of it. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming and remembers you and your order. Great family-owned business that I'm happy to support. It's a no-frills place that delivers on the quality and service. Truly outstanding!
