    Pad kee Mao with beef
    Zehra A.

    Very low quality food. I've been wanting to try this place for awhile and unfortunately I was very disappointed. The quality is very low grade and I didn't feel good while eating it or after. It's a small restaurant with few seats. More than enough parking for the size. I ordered mine to go. The service was bad. No smile, no warmth. Just a cold hard stare with no thank you or even a response to my thank you. Very odd. This place is a one and done. Definitely won't be returning.

    Southeast Asian comfort food. A casual local gem for generous portions and classic cozy flavors. We ordered the classics like pad Thai and pad see ew, with that perfect balance of sweet and savory. A rich green chicken curry so comforting. Every dish tasted homey and was made for sharing. This is the kind of spot you bring your family or meet friends when you just want good food without a wait and service was quick. If you love Thai and Cambodian cuisine, give Thaibodia a try.

    We highly recommend coming hungry and ordering for the table. The portions are huge and perfect for sharing. What we got: - Pad Thai - Pad See Ew - Tom Kha - Green Chicken Curry - Roti with house made curry - Mango Sticky rice

    Big servings!! We should have just got one dish to share, but we got to enjoy leftovers. I preferred the pad see ew over the pad Thai but both dishes were good for our dinner. The one staff member we saw was very attentive and helpful. Good amount of seating and the restaurant is clean. I'm glad we stopped in while walking by

    Visited for their limited dine-in promotion and had a great time! I've ordered take out from their Milpitas location multiple times but have never dined in. Their San Jose location is nicely decorated and the ordering process was quick and easy through the QR code. Service was friendly, quick, and courteous. The food portions are huge and came out piping hot. The favorite of the night was the fried cod. I'd consider revisiting in the future if I'm in the area. Their takeout combos are more appealing to me, but the dine-in experience was very pleasant.

    Will not be returning to the Thaibodia San Jose location. My husband and I ordered takeout yesterday, and we both ended up with food poisoning and diarrhea that night and into today. We ordered the Yellow Curry with Sliced Chicken, Basil Fried Rice with Sliced Beef, and Ginger Sautéed with Sliced Pork -- all mild. The chicken tasted stale and had an unpleasantly mushy texture, like it had been sitting for far too long. The pork was even worse; I found a piece that appeared to be a lymph node, and it grossed me out. To top it off, the Basil Fried Rice had uncooked white rice throughout. We brought the food back and requested a refund. For context, I've been to the Thaibodia Milpitas location before and had a great experience -- delicious food and good value. Based on that, I expected the same quality here. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst Thai food experiences I've had in a long time.

    61 - Yellow Curry and 78 - Rama Thai made correctly with spinach
    Stacy C.

    I had dinner delivered from Thaibodia earlier this week and it was delicious. I had the Rama Thai and yellow curry chicken. The Rama Thai was perfect but the yellow curry was too spicy, even though I ordered it mild (this could be an issue specifically with me because I'm overly sensitive to spice). Not wanting to throw away $20 worth of food, I added coconut milk from my own kitchen to the yellow curry to cut the spice and it tasted wonderful. Tonight I decided to try Thaibodia again and ordered just the Rama Thai. The chicken is supposed to sit on a bed of raw spinach, but instead there were just some tiny pieces of spinach and cabbage. It really didn't taste good without the bed of spinach. Fortunately I got a partial refund from DoorDash.

    13 - CHIVE PUFF PARATHA**
    Sophia W.

    The space is gorgeous! Very open feel and clean. We got the chive puffs recommended by the server, chicken pineapple fried rice, green curry with shrimp and pad see ew with beef. I totally forgot to ask for everything to be spicy and she didn't ask spice level either... So remember to mention the SPICE LEVEL! It's not spicy at all otherwise but they had peppers on the side you could add with everything. Chive puffs was probably my favourite. Had a coconut sauce with it too. Chicken pineapple fried rice was pretty good. Chicken was dry, it was not on a pineapple! Jk. Still pretty good despite the chicken. Green curry was meh. Pad see ew with beef was really sweet. On day 2, doused them with my spicy chilli oil at home and finished it with no problem! Idk if it's a return.

We came on a Sunday and there was only one other party dining there, which honestly made us feel a little bad because you can tell they're probably struggling to get much foot traffic. The lady working there was very friendly and service was good whenever she was able to get to us. You could definitely feel that it's a small local spot doing its best. Food-wise, everything we ordered was solid. We got both the chicken and beef skewers -- both had great flavor with a nice grilled char that really came through. We also ordered the fish amok, cha eark, and kuy tiew cha and enjoyed all three dishes. The fish amok especially stood out since it came wrapped in a banana leaf, and you could taste that subtle aroma infused into the fish. Overall, I still prefer Chez Sovan personally, but this spot is closer to home and reasonably price. I would definitely come back to be able to support a local business!

They used not super unripe papayas that some places use and are way too hard to eat, and you can tell they actually pounded the papaya in the mortar and pestle, because the papaya was tender and absorbed all of the yummy sauce The kuy tiew cha is like pad Thai but has a more tomato-y flavor than tamarind The stuffed chicken wings had a nice grilled char and lemon grass flavor

Inside is small so our large group needed reservations. The dining room was small and echoes a lot so those uncomfortable with noise be ware. A little chatter and light talking will get loud fast. Our waiter was very patient with our group making suggestions and bringing out water quickly. We ordered quite a few items off the menu plus two bottles of wine. The dishes are single entree size. Unique items were the loat cha which were thick tapioca noodles with chicken and veggies. The sausage trio was also different with turmeric flavors and deeper spices in the meats. The amok was a savory soufflé with some kind of fish inside. The durian rice was a dessert and the durian fragrant is strong for those who love this fruit. This place is more for intimate small group dining. The staff are great at accommodating though.
