    Thai Village is a longtime eatery near the waterfront with the boardwalk being less than a block to the west. It's a small establishment with about six booths along the walls and a few tables in the middle of the dining area. Only one party was dining in at the time when I arrived to place a takeout order. Parking was all curbside in this part of PB, however it wasn't an issue on this particular weeknight. The two-sided menu was on display at a table next to the hostess stand. I went with one of my standby noodle dishes from the six that were listed. Shrimp Pad Thai with level two out of five spiciness was what I ordered. Thin rice noodles, egg, scallion, and bean sprouts were stir fried with a house sauce topped with ground peanuts. The size of the shrimp was good, but I did find the serving size to be modest for the nearly $18 price tag. The kitchen did prepare the noodles at a lightning pace though as my wait was no more than five minutes.

    Oh yeah!

    Probably the best Tom Kai soup I've ever had. Been here twice now and it's consistently great! Ordered the Pad Thai the 1st time with the soup and it was good but definitely not the best Pad Thai I've had. But it was good. Second visit, last night, I ordered the wide noodle dish with the beef and vegetables. It was fabulous! Really thought the beef was tender and delicious. Will definitely return.

    This place was the perfect spot for me and my friend on a cold weekday. We had the Tom yum soup with green curry that nursed us back to heath. We were feelin a bit sniffly after a cold day at the beach. (I always ask for extra ginger in Tom yum soup when I'm feelin a little under the weather). What I also loved was our dessert (the mango sticky rice)! It was the perfect amount of sweetness and balance of the texture. Service is average and efficient.

    I was a bit skeptical at first of a Thai place in pacific beach because usually all the good Asian food is more inland in places like Convoy and El Cajon. However, Thai village has proved me wrong and actually to my surprise, it was one of the best Thai I have had in a while! We ordered the Thai tea, Panang curry and Khao so gai. Both curries were excellent! I would say the spice level wasn't too bad either. Thai village feels cozy with less than 10 tables total and on a Saturday night it wasn't packed at all. The servers were attentive, quick, and friendly. We definitely were impressed and will be back soon to try their other dishes.

    Went to Thailand two years ago and it's been a real challenge to find authentic Thai. This place did its job Food was great and fresh! Best mango sticky rice

    Food was delicious, the wings were a little messy to eat . I would have loved it if it had boneless chicken. Lots of people were doing to go orders. Only a few tables inside

    Succulent veggies and tender pork
    Lindsey L.

    Succulent fresh thai food in a setting great for big groups and easy chatting with good acoustics -- I personally tried 6 dishes all superb! fresh vegetables and ample vegetarian options, some of the best pork ive had, tender chicken beautifully prepared, soft tofu-- great tom yum shrimp, fresh tofu fried rice, fabulous red curry chicken, i didnt have the glass noodle soup but 2 of our party really enjoyed it and called it "fresh and delicious." Mango sticky rice was a great way to finish the wonderful meal along with a round of refreshing thai iced teas and one hot tea-- our large party was very satisfied!

    Was getting tired of greasy foods. Ribs, Burgers, fries, pizzas. Always good to have Thai food around.

    Green Curry

    Stepped into this place for dinner after we heard people on the street proclaim how delicious their meal was! The restaurant was quiet, and we were able to choose our own seat and be greeted right away with waters. The waiter was very helpful in walking us through the menu and letting us know what was popular. Based on her recommendation we ordered the half chicken and the green curry, which came to us after only about 10 minutes of waiting. The green curry was delicious, I ordered it at a spicy level 4 out of 10, which in my experience at Thai restaurants does have a strong level of heat for my taste buds, but here I found it a little too mild for my liking. The half chicken also had great flavor, but was more sweet than spicy. The half chicken was also very bony. Overall, we did enjoy our experience and will likely be returning, however, we will skip out on the half chicken and order our dishes more spicy.

    Food was yummy. We had the chicken larb and garlic chicken wings. We devoured our garlic chicken wing before I can take a pic.

    Food was yummy and service was great! Will definitely come again when in SD! We also ordered garlic wings but devoured it before we took a pic.

Retro vibes, free arcade games, and an atmosphere that feels more like a hangout than a restaurant, in a good way. Extra credit for actually letting you play the games instead of just using them as decor. I was not very hungry, so I went with the Arctik Monkey smoothie with peanut butter and chocolate. Straight up delicious and absolutely something I would order again without hesitation. My wife ordered the Feta y Verdes veggie wrap, and even she was surprised by how good it was, which says a lot because she knows her veggies. Fresh, flavorful, and genuinely satisfying. Veggie lovers, consider this your official heads up. The arcade lineup is solid too. Pac Man, Mortal Kombat II, The Simpsons, a classic Star Wars Atari cabinet, plus others. Waiting for food did not feel like waiting. It felt like killing time in the best possible way. One quick warning. The hip hop playlist is not radio edited. Totally fine for adults, but if you are bringing kids, just know you might be explaining some lyrics on the drive home. Overall, fun spot, good food, strong throwback energy. I would definitely come back.

We finally stopped by and boy was it an experience. We decided to indulge and got the Poke Bowl (2 scoops), Nico Burrito, and Calamari Filet. Their Poke Bowl is spicy ahi, seaweed salad, ginger, and a drizzle of sauce. So fire! The fish is super fresh. No notes! The Nico Burrito features battered white fish, rice, beans, and pico. Mayhaps the best fish burrito I've ever had. Lastly, the Calamari Filet which I think is a limited time special. Super tender, thick pieces of squid! Everything was just so fresh. The ingredients really spoke for themselves!

We stopped in for an early dinner around 4:30 PM, and it was already fairly busy. There aren't a ton of tables inside or outside, but we were able to find a spot. Shortly after we ordered, the line stretched out the door, so I was glad we arrived when we did. The menu is fairly simple and focuses on a handful of fresh seafood options. We ordered the Grilled Shrimp Burrito, an 8 oz Red Snapper Ceviche, and the Crispy Rice Poke. Our food came out quickly. The shrimp burrito wasn't enormous, but it was a good size and came with guacamole, which was a nice addition. The shrimp was cooked well and nicely seasoned. The ceviche was fresh and flavorful, though I did find it a bit pricey at $15 for the portion size. My favorite dish was the Crispy Rice Poke. The crispy rice was topped with tuna, ginger, seaweed, and several sauces that added a lot of flavor and texture. Every bite had a nice balance of savory, tangy, and fresh flavors. Overall, the food was good, and it's definitely a solid spot if you're looking for fresh poke or seafood. Just keep in mind that the menu is intentionally simple, so there isn't a huge variety of options if you're looking for a more extensive selection.

It was absolutely packed when I visited, and finding a seat felt like a challenge. I eventually snagged a little desk in the corner. Sure, it was next to the bathroom, but honestly I was just happy to have my own little workspace. I ordered a lavender ube latte, half sweet, and it was so good. The flavors were perfect, and the temperature was spot on. Also, can we take a moment for their ceramic cups? So cute! For food, I tried their Cali vegan sandwich. It was okay, but I was hoping for a little more flavor. It felt a bit dry, and the fries weren't very hot by the time they arrived. Given how busy the place was, I'm guessing that may have played a role. Overall, it's a solid place to hang out, grab a coffee, or get some work done if you can find a table.
