Pineapple Red Curry with Tofu - Spice level: Hot - 5* Loved this combo of spicy and sweet (pineapple and lychee) Note: They only accept max. 2 credits cards. So plan accordingly. read more

Ordered Uber Eats takeout from Amarin Thai Cuisine 2 just now. The meat in the green curry was raw. I had to throw away the entire dish. The Hoa Mok fish was fine. This used to be our preferred restaurant for many years. But this is the 2nd time getting sub-par food during take out. Expanding their kitchen for take out was a terrible move. Will not order from here again. read more

Good service and food. Sauces and curry are pretty flavorful. Serving size and pricing are a little high. Ordered two dishes for two people with no leftovers for around $60 before tip. Tiger cry steak was tasty but I thought it was a little chewy. The panang curry was really flavorful with adjustable spice. read more

Super delicious Thai food in a relatively new location for this longstanding restaurant. Every dish was fresh and flavorful, so yummy. Pad Kee Mao, Curries, etc. Came here with a couple vegetarian families and everyone enjoyed the food. Would highly recommend. Food is a slightly pricier than your average Thai place, but the quality and taste here are top notch. Great location in highly walkable downtown Mountain View and we got dessert afterwards at the Alexander Patisserie 1 block away. Good times! read more

Love the food here but it is on the pricy side. The shop is inside the downtown. I really liked the pork neck! Will go back just for that. There are seatings outside too. When we were there, it seemed like there were only 2 servers. Was a bit difficult to get their attention as the shop got busier. Overall exp was good read more

Recent good reviews are fake ones from the owner. Their food is TERRIBLE. Soup has zero flavor. Meat has been added to the soup before bringing out. So meat has zero flavor too. Everything else is even worse. Run away immediately. read more

My go to restaurant in Castro had been Amarin Thai (the old location) and this was the first time we tried out this new version (and the first time I posted with a photo...sorry it was a candid novice yelper POV image of a half eaten meal...disgusting, maybe, but at least it was honest). My thoughts it was pretty good food, chill vibes, and two entrees were enough to satisfy two hungry gluttons. read more

Amarin Thai Cuisine - left dish Panang curry w chicken and right is catfish, of course with coconut rice. (Tom yum in my belly) - Thai Near Me - Mountain View, California

We have not been to Castrost for a few years. So surprise to see the closures of Ryowa and Maruichi Ramen. But, so pleased that Amarin still stands strong. Did not get a chance to try it in the past and very glad we were able to last night We were very skeptic since we saw so many occupied table and only 1 server. But, Our PadKeemao, Panang Beef, Spicy Garlic Shrimp came out at a very appropriate time. I'm impressed. Padkeemao- We asked for Thai Spicy and got the American Spicy. The chewiness of the noodle was perfect. All veggies and meats were crispy and tender. Is it authentically Thai? Plus, $19 for a noodle dishHmmmmm.,...7/10 Spicy Garlic Shrimp- We asked for Thai Spicy and we got it! Please order this. You only get 6 big shrimps and lots of veggies for $25. But, for the quality, this may worth it. We asked for cut ups chilies and fish sauce and drizzled it on top. This dish was perfect. .......9/10 Panang Beef Not too spicy for a Thai Spicy. Taste wise, this dish only had one note in our tongue. Sweet and that's it. I asked for beef. I did not think they took it as the short rib. And added the premium charge. I cant bear to put the price here. Just know, it expensive....2/10 I know that everything is pricey now. But, $98.00 for 3 dishes in a Thai restaurant was shocking. read more

gets busy for good reason! ive eaten here and ordered online for pickup. still very good customer service but i opt to order for pickup to avoid the crowd. i recommend any of the curries, ha mok fish, and spicy crispy catfish! all very flavorful! dont forget the the side of rice cause it none of the entrees come with it. the pad thai was lackluster for me, ive had better elsewhere. read more

Food is mediocre and staffs are not friendly. First time here asked for food recommendation, she's so impatient and rushed us to order food immediately. She recommended the mussaman curry, it's so sweet, not spicy and thick gravy, doesn't have the curry kick. The roti was delicious but the peanut sauce was not a good match. She didn't even asked us if we were allergic to peanut. Also there's another option for the roti dipping sauce which is the curry sauce. Green curry was just okay, mango salad with fried tofu was the only one we liked. She didn't recommend that, we decided to try it. Not going back for sure. read more

Let me start out by saying I miss the "feel" of the original location. That spot has since given way to a new restaurant. This smaller location is a touch more modern looking and probably more attractive in terms of expenses like a lower lease rate, etc. While the quality of the food appears to be unchanged, I am feeling a bit uncomfortable regarding the smaller size of the dining area, the style of plates/dishes being used to eat from and serve from. That metallic feeling when scooping my food up from my plate detracts from the dining experience. I mean, I am not here on a camping trip! To "top it off", they had no desserts (FBI or Mango Sticky Rice) available to order. Boy, times and economics sure have changed... read more

Checked out the second Amarin location on Castro street for the first time! Not sure why the original location was closed, but we were still glad to get our Thai food fix in. Yellow Curry -- nice coconut flavors coming through, a bit too many potatoes would've preferred more chicken Pad Kee Mao -- classic dish done well, nice balance of sweet & umami flavors Ground Pork Larb -- perfectly seasoned ground pork mixed with cilantro & mint, tasted very healthy Overall, we were all pleased with Amarin 2.0! Flavors were authentic and portions were large. Service was fast and we were seated right away. There were a few other parties inside on a weekday evening. Their second location is a bit smaller than their original, nevertheless the ambience was pleasant and homey. Portions were decently sized and reasonably priced. Would recommend parking at one of the Castro parking structures nearby. read more

3.5 Stars which Im rounding up to 4 because they're just scaling up in this new location. I tried the pad see ew and panang curry in extra spicy. I don't think they were spicy and they only had chili garlic sauce as opposed to chili oil or chili flakes. On top of that I think the pad see ew was a bit on the oilier side but neither of these are a big deal I just don't think the food was amazing. The portions were also on the slightly smaller side. Service was really nice though so bumping them up for that! Ambiance was like a regular thai place. read more

High quality food with very comfortable outdoor seatings! It's very authentic Thai food and I especially like the Massaman curry with chicken thighs. I can't eat very spicy food and the spice level for this curry is perfect for me. Tons of chicken. The pad see ew is also highly recommended. The pork neck is mediocre, on the drier side even with the sauce. Price is definitely on the higher side given that it's in Mountain View downtown. One serving of jasmine rice is $2.99. The service is average only. read more

Food was super yummy and well priced! If you're looking for good flavors while not trying to break the bank, check our Amarin. The restaurant is simple, and the servers allow you to customize the spice level of your dish. The only comment is that the green beans are basically raw in the crying tiger veggie mix & papaya salad, which we didn't like. read more

Glad they have this Amarin Thai Cuisine extension at Downtown Mountain View. They offer most of the food from the main restaurant, plus more. And set up is more updated. I enjoy the satay chicken and samosas here. Been ordering them every time we go here. We tried a couple of plates too, tofu and baked chicken at separate occasions and they both are good. The plates were big servings and are very filling. The place is usually not crowded even during lunch hour, so service is fast and easy to get a table. read more

Reserved this place for a team dinner. Food tasted pretty good, but overpriced. I had the spicy garlic prawns and it was $26 for 6 small-medium sized farm raised Costco shrimp. Nothing like the huge prawns you see in Thailand. Customer service is lacking. My coworker ordered something non-spicy, and it still came out spicy anyways, and they didn't offer to remake it. The lady even scolded my coworker for ordering it. We were finishing up the meal, and at first the old dude (I'm assuming the owner) tried to do some passive stuff to get us to leave, like clearing our table and packing up our leftovers even though we didn't ask for that yet. When it was clear we weren't ready to leave, he then sent over the server to ask us to leave, instead doing it himself. Way to put your server in that position. read more

Staff was super friendly and accommodating to our gluten free allergy! Delicious food & fast service we will be back

Dined here recently with a party of nine people and they were very accommodating and attentive to our large group. We ordered nine different dishes and the flavors of each dish were quite tasty and authentic. The only drawback was we received our entrees and had to ask for the rice and we also ordered fried rice and it was one of the last dishes to arrive...we would have preferred it earlier in the meal. Overall, it was a satisfying and delicious meal!! Also, a perfect day to dine outdoors. read more

I wondered if this place would be as good as #1. Unfortunately it wasn't. I felt like the chicken meat in the curry was old and tasted like it was almost spoiled. The papaya salad was the best thing that we ate. The Pad Thai was decent but I've had better elsewhere. Service was ok. They only have 1 server. She was working hard to get everything out. The place was almost empty for Friday night dinner. There was only 2 other tables eating there. Not sure if I'd make my way back here again. Too many other spots that could use my hard earned dough. read more

Ordered tom kha gai, pad kee mao, and som tam to go. The food tasted fine, but Tom Kha Soup portion was very small for 18.99 and it came with white button mushrooms instead of oyster/straw mushrooms and didn't see usual herb garnishes. The staff was friendly and helpful at pick up. Atmosphere at this location was pretty plain, I liked dining at their previous location because of their unique ambience. Feels like they might be cutting costs, even with a simple bowl of soup sadly. read more

What a wonderful place to share a meal with friends! The portions are large enough to share and can be ordered plant-based. We ordered larb tofu, massaman curry, tofu satay, pad seeew, som tum (papaya salad), and, of course mango with sticky rice. Great service! Having spent time in Bangkok, we felt it was an authentic Thai experience. We ate family style (which makes it an affordable feast). We sat outside and enjoyed the lovely spring weather. ! read more

Came in for lunch on a Saturday and it was pretty empty. Service was quick and friendly, and there are lots of tables inside as well as outdoor seating on Castro. The three of us ordered the pad see ew with pork, roti with curry, and tsunami seafood fried rice. The pad see ew and roti were delicious! Great flavors all around, and the roti had the perfect fluffy and buttery texture. Curry sauce wasn't spicy but was well seasoned and complemented the roti perfectly. Unfortunately the fried rice fell flat for us. While the portions of seafood were generous, I felt it was a bit too soggy for my taste. The flavor was pretty well spiced; not too hot, but also just not the flavor I was looking for. This was more than enough food for the three of us, and we had a bit leftover. The menu is quite large so I'd be curious about some of the other street food that you don't typically see at Thai restaurants in the US. read more

This used to be the famous Hong Kong Bistro that was open till late night .... Taken over by Amarin Thai (the folks here are the same Amarin Thai diagonally opposite -174 Castro that closed down after 24yrs in business, but their sign says 147 is now Amarin. The place is not spectacular or fancy like the old Amarin cross the road. This is tiny and more cafe like. My first time here so let's see! I ordered a veg fried rice and my friend ordered a crab fried rice. Prices seem a bit high for the kind of place it is. Perhaps my head has to adjust that $18 for a dish is for the fancier Amarin that closed down. The food is good, not great. It's pricey and for two with no appetizers or beverages and just the basic 2 lunch orders and tip, it's absolutely costly. Once is good, wouldn't recommend it again. read more

We had the boat noodles with beef, spicy basil duck, papaya salad, and spicy basil fried rice with tofu. The boat noodle broth was strongly flavored and slightly sweet.

My husband and I were strolling around and got hungry. Found this Thai street food restaurant and decided to try it. We ordered the beef noodle soup, grilled steak, and pork belly plate. The beef noodle soup is so delicious. It's filled with so much lean tender beef. I love it. The broth is delicious. The grilled steak is ok. Not marinated well. Still a bit beefy. It needs the dipping sauce to mask the beefiness when eating it. There's a lot of steamed vegetables that come with it, which is great. The pork belly plate is ok. My husband enjoyed it. The service is great too. They are attentive. They come checking on us once in a while. Try it out. read more

I've been coming to this family restaurant for over 20 YEARS and they never disappoint! Food is phenomenal (I literally can't eat pad thai anywhere else) and the owners are a family of absolutely wonderful people. This restaurant has a beautiful ambience and kind service always! It always feels good to spend my money here vs a place where they don't really care about the customers or user experience, they just want numbers. Amarin is the opposite of that and a wonderful place to eat! read more

My family loves Thai food. Thats the only non-Indian cuisine where chances, of getting vegetarian options that are flavorful, are higher. Amarin is one of my favorite places. This is the first time we were eating at this location (there is another Amarin across the road from this one on Castro). As publicized, this is more street food version. Khoa Soi is my favorite. Curry and noodles were good too. Can only say about the vegetarian entrees, they were all good. Service was very slow. When we went there was only ond person taking orders and serving. It took a long time to give the order but after that food came pretty quickly. Has both indoor & outdoor seating. Right on Castro Mtn view downtown. No parking available outside the restaurant. Have to park in one of the cross streets and walk here. read more

There are two locations on Castro Street. There's the original that also absorbed the business next to it to make one big restaurant that is still crowded. Then they opened this location across the street, Amarin Thai Street Food. This location was not crowded but it's the same delicious Thai food. We had the roti with curry dip, yum! Fried bread with curry sauce. I think this one is hard to mess up. It tastes like the same frozen paratha from grocery stores that you fry up fresh, but they all do. The curry dip is good. Panang curry with pork, red peppers, coconut milk and sweet basil. Good flavor! The pad Thai with chicken was not oily, not dry, and you mix everything together yourself. The Pad see ewe with beef came with delicious wide soft noodles and broccoli. We also had a side of brown rice. This place has plates like the chicken wing plate we ordered. It had 4 fat fried chickens wings, a side of jasmine rice, a little carrot, jicama? salad, and a green onion sauce. It was a single plate and wouldn't have fed me enough because I like to eat. We ate everything before I could take pictures. They do give a good amount of food compared to some other Thai restaurants. We plan on coming back! read more
