    Mango Sweet sticky rice with Mango, Thai iced tea
    Kris N.

    Can get pretty busy around dinner time. People often come in larger groups and this is a small restaurant. Best for 2-4 people. Had I reviewed this place sooner (thought I had), I likely would've given this place a 5/5 (at least for the area). They have become a go-to spot for me over the years. They are very friendly and do a pretty good job getting the food out in a timely manner. My favorite dishes: -Thai Tea & Coffee: Sweet and refreshing. -Thai Style Chicken Wings: Good Crisp. -Spicy Basil Combo (pork): Not too spicy, simple yet flavorful. -Mango Sticky Rice: the rice texture def isn't for everyone. -Beef Pad Thai: wish the sauce (for lack of a better word) had more tamarind flavor or if you could ask for it to be stronger. -Garlic Combo with Beef: basically a Thai style omelette with garlic, your meat of choice and a side of what I can only describe as a Thai style buffalo dipping sauce.

    Met up with two of my great friends for an early lunch here. Small establishment but clean. And friendly. Nice little set up inside, although depending on certain situations tables are placed very closely together. But all in all the food tasted amazing and the visual presentation of each dish that was brought out was very nice to look at and placed very well. One of my friends had previously been here so I'm guaranteed that we will meet up here again whether it be for a lunch or an early dinner. If I recall, I think their opening hours are 11 AM and that was on a Saturday.

    Sweet sticky rice with Mango
    Mona D.

    Wow found this hidden gem for lunch today! It was not busy at 2pm on a Saturday. Very clean and great service! The food was amazing! All the flavors of Thai food hit the spot. We ordered the yellow curry with chicken, chicken pad Thai, chicken fried rice, and for dessert we had their amazing sticky rice! Just the right amount of sweet. Definitely a place to enjoy theme t time we're in town.

    Tray Pad Thai Shrimp
    Eloy G.

    I ordered this food while I was traveling through Stockton/manteca area and this was a good choice. The shrimp pad Thai had good flavor and even though I ordered mild, it had a bit of a kick and a little more on the spicy side. Can't speak of the service as I ordered take out but they did forget to give me utensils. The ambiance was nice and overall locally owned place. I would recommend this for the pad Thai as it was cooked well and had good flavors .

    Crying Tiger
    Nanci-Nanciele M.

    This is a whole in the wall, small local businesses I have been wanting to try this place for quite a while now. It has great reviews and I love Thai food so I had high expectations. Ambiance resembles a small business but didn't really give me the usual Thai food spot vibe. I didn't dine in, took it to go however I did post a few pictures of the dining room so be sure to check them out. Food was delicious! A bit overpriced but so good! Check out my photos of the food I bought. Service was what you would expect for a to go order. I asked for an itemized receipt but was told by the young lady that she couldn't provide one to me. Today I dined as pleasure so not an issue however when I do business meals I do need itemized receipts so this spot would not be an option for me to take anyone to a business lunch. Too bad because I tend to spend much more on those outings. I also found it odd that the prices advertised in the window don't match the menu prices inside. I mentioned this to the cashier who just shrugged it off. I tried to figure out why my meal cost so much based on menu prices inside but without an itemized receipt it was not possible. I paid $35.72 for the crying tiger and a mango sweet sticky rice dessert. I even added extra three dollars in case they charged me for side of rice but still I paid more than I should have by a few dollars. This is the reason I took off two stars. Parking was a bit challenging as this place is located in a strip mall and shared with several other businesses including a grocery store. Overall, I would love to eat the food again but the owner will need to update menu in window and in store to reflect what I'm actually paying. If not, I will have to pass. I always support local small businesses and I still recommend you give this place a shot. You won't be disappointed in the food, you may be disappointed with the price your charged though. As long as you're mindful of that, you will be good.

    Green curry, prawns with rice and salad
    Irene G.

    This is a cute spot in a strip mall. The inside looks trendy and well lit. The service was great and quick. The food was delicious

    I was craving papaya salad soooo bad and this was absolutely amazing. I ordered it thai spicy style with grilled shrimp. It was the perfect level of spicy, salty, and sour. I will be back often just for the papaya salad.

    Pumpkin curry
    Tina A.

    Great food and service! Crying tiger - steak with some bomb sauce Pineapple fried rice - super fragrant and yummy, especially with the extra fish sauce and chili and lemon Pineapple curry (medium) - concentrated wonderful flavor, packed with the fixings of veggies and meat. Golden spoon noodle - gamey broth reminiscent of Cambodian kathiew, feels like home cooking Papaya salad - thick cut and standardly yummy Service is always nice and atmosphere is always clean with upscale dining ware. I've been here twice so far and there will be no hesitation to come back the next time I'm at great wolf lodge again

    The food we ordered was delicious! Every item was very flavorful. We would have had a great experience as the service was great and it was a nice clean restaurant, however, a family was seated and immediately coming in, the family had no consideration for other patrons in the restaurant. I am around noise, and am typically not bothered, especially when a family is out having a nice meal while enjoying each others' company. But this family had no control of their kids nor did they care that kids were in walk ways. It's a small restaurant and they were playing now around tables. It is not a park nor outdoors. There has to be a line drawn to make others feel comfortable and enjoy their meals too. That was the only thing that bothered me that not one person gestured the kids to sit down or at least be in their area. We were all tortured. It was really hard to enjoy our meal. But it wasn't just the kids, the parents did not care. In fact, they were yelling themselves. It's about respect for others. I understand this is a one off situation because it started to get busy. It's a popular restaurant and the food speaks for itself but the business needs to control an uncomfortable environment. Everyone was upset. I was so thrown off that I didn't take pictures of everything. I wanted to get up and leave fast. But everything was solid. Ordered spring rolls, fried chicken (wet), Tom Ka Gai, Ginger whole fried fish, pad see ew with pork, and crab fried rice.

    Thai iced tea
    Jen D.

    This came highly recommended and it didn't disappoint. Food was delish! Service was great. Loved the clean, quiet place but maybe because we were here for early. I'll have to come back and try my favorite Thai dishes like curry and Thai basil which I skipped today.

    Pad See Ew chicken
    KC U.

    I've been coming to this place for quite some time now and this is the only time I wasn't pleased with the service. As I was waiting for my order I felt that the waiter is doing everything on its own. From taking phone/dine in orders; preparing the phone orders for the Togo customers; cleaning the table and getting the transactions for payments for both dine in/ Togo customers; and serving dine in customers with their orders is a bit too much for a one person job. I felt that my order took a long time to be delivered at my table. Don't get me wrong this place is really good with their food menu. The food here is great. But I think the waiter needs help in the front if they have a multiple food orders during lunch hours.

    After a day at great wolf lodge I found this gem on Yelp. Ordered via phone and went to pickup the food to go. The lady who took my order quoted 10-15 mins so we hurried over but still had to wait another 15 minutes for our food. We brought the food back to our hotel. Crying tiger: 4/5 lots of fat, otherwise not bad. Chicken larb: 4/5 good flavor and large portions Beef pad see ew: 4/5 great texture and good flavor. So happy they don't make it sweet. Green curry with pork which comes with rice: 5/5 excellent curry! Mango sticky rice: 5/5 excellent and yummy So happy we found this spot! Only 14 minutes drive from GWL.

    Pad See Ew
    Joseph J.

    Come here for your Thai fox ate lunch here called it in and can't go wrong with the laab nice and spicy and crunch with the lettuce and cabbage with a twist of lime, pad saw ew was good they should of package the order in a smaller container just because it looks empty like the skip out on serving but it was ok not the best.

Added rice and garlic noodles and sweet potato fries. Service- 3 stars. Our waitress (blonde old lady) was mid. Firstly, she didn't get our order correctly since once we got our bag of crab, we had to ask where our sweet potato fries were and the garlic noodles. It came way later. Second- not once did she come to our table and asked how our food were. We came on a Saturday around 3 pm so place wasn't that busy. Combo 3- was pretty good. For 4 people, we finished everything in the bag. Sausage had a little spice and was better than other crab bag restaurants. 5 stars Didn't like our plate was just a small little paper container that didn't hold much. They don't leave the bucket to your table so basically have to leave any shells out on the table. Not a deal breaker but other places I've been to, leaving a bucket for excess shell stuff makes our area around our paper container cleaner. 3 stars Overall, experience was fine but not worth 5 stars. Noticed when we left, the two girls working as the "hostess" were busy talking to each other than saying goodbye or saying "thank you for coming". 3 stars
