This was a solid option for a group of us with 4-8 year olds. The lunch entrees are huge! Two was more than enough for 2 kids and one adult. There was no wait for 6 of us on a Saturday around 12:30pm. They were fairly busy and almost full, maybe 1 or 2 groups waiting. * Pad see ew - 4 stars. * Chicken noodle soup - 3.5 stars. read more

I've always said that I love the ambiance of holiday popup bars but not the price tag. So when I discovered Little Plearn Thai by my alma mater that caters to the student budget, went all out for their holiday decor, I knew I had to stop by. Arrived with 10 min left for their HH discount so got their two mojito and sunrise mocktails and 3 appetizers, satay chicken, curry puff, and potstickers. Then onto their dinner menu of Moo Dang dry noodles and ginger sole before finishing off with one of their fun holiday drinks for dessert, the peppermint eggnog for just $8.50. Even the ones with alcohol were only $10-$11. For the price of a few drinks at a popup bar, we got drinks, dinner, and leftovers for lunch. Must be the Econ major in me. read more

Stopped by Little Plearn for lunch since it's just a block down the street from me. We ordered the duck over rice and the mild pumpkin curry lunch special. The duck over rice was probably a 2/5 for me, and I definitely would not order it again. At first, I thought it was decent because my first bite was mostly sauce and rice, but once I tried the duck, it fell short. The skin was more slimy than flavorful, and the meat itself had a noticeable funk to it that made it seem lower quality. Luckily, the pumpkin curry saved the meal. I really enjoyed the flavor, and it was easily the better dish (still would rate it a 3/5 though). If you're like me, I'd skip the lunch special and just order the curry as a regular plate since I did not care much for the side salad or vegetarian spring roll. I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back since there are so many Thai restaurants to try in Berkeley, but Little Plearn is definitely a convenient option near campus, especially for students looking for a quick lunch. read more

We were strolling through Berkeley with a serious Thai food craving when we stopped by this spot. Right when we walked in, we were greeted by a spooky, festive entrance such a fun touch that I really appreciated Our Eats Included: Suki Noodle Soup (4.5/5) Moo Dang & Crispy Pork over Rice (4.5/5) Ube Roti (5/5) The Suki noodle soup was delicious! It had a strong flavor of fermented red soy bean paste, however it is a bit overpowering. I highly recommend the crispy pork! It had the right amount of crisp served with a delicious sauce. Finally we came to this place because we saw these amazing deserts. The roti was warm crunchy yet chewy and the ube ice cream complimented it well. read more

Best lunch deal in Berkeley, complete lunch with salad, entrée, rice , & egg-roll, last time I went it was $16.00! Charming interior design, and wonderful staff. Cold beers are available with a nice glass. I frequent this spot and love the yellow curry vegetarian style or the ginger vegetables with cashews. Served with jasmine rice, or a small up charge for brown rice. The background music is ambient, elevator jazz music, which at times is a bit annoying. But much better than classic rock blaring at you. A must if you end up in Berkeley for lunch, dinner, takeout or delivery! And I know you'll agree and thank me...... read more

The restaurant is so adorable inside! Even though it was busy, the staff was super attentive and friendly the entire time. We tried the Restaurant Week sampler plates, which were such a fun way to explore a variety of dishes. Everything was incredibly fresh, vibrant, and tasty. My standouts were the papaya salad, green curry tofu, pad see ew, and pad thai! Every dish was flavorful with the perfect hint of spices. The drinks were refreshing and beautifully presented. We ended the night with mango sticky rice, which was so delicious - it had a crunchy topping sprinkled on top that added a really nice texture! Overall, this place exceeded expectations in every way. Delicious food, amazing service, and such a welcoming atmosphere. We will 100% be back! read more

I've been exploring Berkeley more for food and i came here during Restaurant Week. The interior is nicely decorated with hanging flowers and lights. Service was quick. Food was amazing, each plate being a shareable size as your typical Thai restaurant. I definitely recommend the Mussamun Curry. Their plant based curry is also good, but has a strong kick to it, even on a mild. Overall, all items were enjoyable. read more

We stopped here for a quick dinner after walking through downtown Berkeley. We got there around 5pm, so the restaurant was still empty since it just opened. By the time we finished, there were still some tables open but it definitely started to fill up by 6pm. We got the yam fries to start, and shared both the beef pad see ew and crab fried rice. The yam fries were super crispy, but also so light and tasty. Loved them! The beef pad see ew was cooked perfectly and rivaled some of the better pad see ew's I've had. The crab fried rice, however, was just decent. I wasn't a huge fan of the warm rice and cold crab combo. I think this would be a huge hit if it was served in a hot clay pot instead to let the bottom get nice and crispy. Just my personal preference though. Overall, still really enjoyed the food and ambiance. Would definitely come back if I'm in the area. read more

Flavor (5/5): Not a lot of places do pumpkin curry and it's an absolute favorite of mine. When I saw they had it on their menu I had to order it, and it hit every craving I had for it. It was loaded with protein of your choice and lots of veggies. Highly recommend! Instagram Worthy (5/5): I didn't expect this place to be so cute from Yelp but when I walked in I was surprised! They went hard on their Halloween decor and the food presentation was chefs kisses! Service (4/5): We got seated quickly and ordered and got our food in a timely manner! Food came out piping hot and the portion sizes were crazy! Takeaways: Lunch special is such a great deal, portion sizes aren't cut down and you get a free eggroll with your plate! The brunch spot down the road was 1.5 hour wait so we stumbled into this place instead and I'm so glad we did. Little hole in the wall, I would definitely come back! read more

Enjoyed my dining experience! Thai food is good but finding a good restaurant that serves a variety is tough. Came here with family celebration of a birthday. I like the holiday decorations and festive feels. The restaurant is a good size for seating but I suggest making reservations because this place became packed and waiting time became long after we were seated. Arrived around 4 pm on a Sunday. Service was professional and waitress was nice and knowledgeable. The staff knew how to serve well. We had a big group but each of our entrees came out at a decent time. Also the portions were generous. I thought the Thai ice tea lemonade was good and something new to try. Highly recommend and would come again! read more

This place came highly recommended by a fellow foodie who's recommendations I really trust! She explained the family history and authenticity behind the food and I told myself I had to try it asap. The restaurant is quaint and charming. They even had Christmas decor up adding to the already charming atmosphere. We tried the pad Thai of course, it was delicious. We added crab, cause why not and prawns. Unfortunately the fish only came with two fairly small prawns. That was a little disappointing, but no points deducted for taste. The food was excellent. We also tried the duck over rice and I thought it was very good. The duck was nicely cooked and came with a tasty sauce. Service was very attentive, constantly making sure our table was clean, waters were full. It was really nice. All in all we had a great time and we'll definitely be back! read more

i drove an hour across the bridge from the peninsula just to try little plearn thai kitchen after seeing this restaurant all over my tiktok feed and it was so worth it! the restaurant was poppin' on a friday night, maybe because it was berkeley restaurant week and students returned from spring break. fun fact: this restaurant is family-run, on its 3rd generation working hard to preserve the roots of thai culture started by the grandmother/ founder of this restaurant (Plearn is her name)! They've done a great job putting in effort to keep this restaurant innovative and fresh down to its indoor decorations and dish presentation appealing to aesthetic and trends while still preserving the authentic taste of the food. they shop for their fresh produce, meat, and noodles every morning while still making everything homemade like their curry. every dish is PACKED with flavor and extremely flavorful. you could definitely tell all the dishes served take so much time to make and are made with love by the kitchen. show-stopping must-order dishes: green curry: i will dream about the taste of this curry!! wow. perfect spice. papaya salad: the spice paired with the freshness and texture to this dish was exquisite. perfect crunch and soaked in flavor. basil - thai sweet basil pork, zucchini, green bean, bamboo, red chili & chili: such a comfort dish filled with so much flavor. eggplant: vegetables were cooked perfectly and fresh. felt healthy and full of flavor. beef pad see ew: noodles were so fresh they also have this housemade chili sauce that was so bomb and i was dipping everything in it. dishes were reasonably priced, especially in this economy and is so considerate for the students in the area. the workers were so kind, attentive and quick to serve and cater to their customers as if they were welcoming everyone into their home. i had a wonderful and meaningful experience dining here. read more

Service was so quick and they're extremely nice. Came here on a Friday afternoon for a quick bite before heading over to a concert at the Greek Theater. (Side note: not exactly a walkable preferred distance). They also had a happy hour menu that was still going and we definitely took advantage of the decent pricing. 1. Happy hour wings: these were not that exciting unfortunately. I really wanted to like them but it ended up being the last thing I ate. Sauce was not all that. It was a sweet and sour chili sauce cooked down with basil for flavor. It just wasn't for me. 2. Bowl of Tom Kha: this was my favorite of all things we tried and a perfect portion for one person. However we did share this bowl knowing we over ordered. Chicken was soft, mushroom the perfect texture. The soup was delicious. 3. Happy Hour: chicken satay. Chicken was slightly dry but it didn't ruin it for me. Also easy to eat off the stick. Peanut sauce was not over powering and a good balance of flavor. The pickled veggies that come on the side had the perfect crunch. 4. Moo Dang Dry Noodle: the meat was soft and very flavorful. I would recommend fully mixing everything before digging in. Definitely pair it with the pickled jalapeños they have to add the spice and crunch to it. Personally, didn't like this dish much either. I think it was the noodles for me, it was tasting a bit bland. But once I added the jalapenos, it was much better. read more

We ordered a few things togo and had a great experience. The server was super friendly, and even though it wasn't quite dinner time yet, the place had a steady flow of people. The food took about 20 minutes, and everything was still warm and fresh when we ate them about 30 mins later. Portions were solid for the price. We got the shrimp pad thai, chicken pad see ew, and potstickers. Everything tasted great! The pad see ew could've used a little more seasoning, but still good overall. Would come back again! read more

We found the perfect Valentine's Day date @Little Plearn Thai but honestly? Delicious all year round Little Plearn Thai has been on our list since last year since we love festive restaurants, but what really impressed us is that the food is just as good as how pretty the space is What we ordered: Fresh Spring Rolls, Curry Puff, Pad Thai (SO fresh best Pad Thai I've had in the Bay, no debate), Panang Nua, Basil pork, Thai Yaki Soba, Duck Over Rice, Moo Dang & Crispy Pork Over Rice. They also have a limited Valentine's drink menu We can taste how fresh everything is. Hearing the story behind the restaurant made it even more special The owner's grandmother started the business and STILL personally picks the fresh ingredients at the store. That kind of care shows in every bite. #foodie #bayarea #valentinesday #datenight #thaifood read more

my first experience wasn't great. the food lacked flavor. we tried the basil and the pad thai. both dishes were bland. i love pad thai typically and everywhere i go, it has always tasted similar with a nice tang but this one really just tasted like nothing? i didn't plan on coming back but was passing by and had some doordash credits to spend. out of convenience, i tried their crispy pork for takeout and it was actually really delicious. i would easily come back for this dish. the sauce it's paired with enhances the flavor nicely. the crunch of the skin and the softness of the meat creates a nice texture balance. the cucumbers were so sweet as well. perhaps the first time was an off day, or maybe those specific dishes aren't as great anyway. either way, i'm glad i ended up coming back because i really loved the pork read more

Brought my wife to this spot because we saw it on IG. I wanted to surprise her with a date night. They were showcasing their Christmas themed atmosphere. I made a reservation because it was suggested if going on the weekend. They get very packed. I made the reservation through their website. It was easy. We got there and immediately noticed how beautifully festive it was. That was really beautiful and intentional. My wife was real happy with her surprise. We were seated immediately, so that was a plus. Our waitress provided helpful food and drinks suggestions. We ordered chicken wings as appetizers, I ordered Pad See Eew and my wife ordered the dry glass noodles with various meats and tofu (I forgot the name). The wings should have came out 1st.. but that was not the case. My food came out 1st without my wife's. The chicken wings came out about 5 to 7 miss later and then my wife's food came out.. about 2 mins after the wings. While we both enjoyed our entrees, the wings were undercooked. Like they seemed done, but you could tell and taste that they needed to have fried a bit longer. One of them had a little redness on the bone. Nonetheless, we ate them. Our drinks were so delicious. She had the green Christmas one and I had the blue Christmas one. We put Soju (Korean alcohol) in them both. I got mine w/o whipped cream because I'm lactose intolerant (They were fine with leaving it off)...BUT, I did have her bring me sprinkles to add because I love sprinkles. So far, the night was actually Purdue decent minus those lil hiccups. However, when the waitress came over to check on us and asked us if we needed boxes for the leftovers, we said we did.. but I still had half a drink left. Sure then brought the boxes and check. I did not understand why because I was actually going to order more drinks. However, at that point, I felt like we were being rushed to get up from our table. I told her that I was not ready for the check and she was adamant about me placing it on my section of the seating. I had to tell her again.. that we did not ask for the check and that we were not ready to leave yet. She walked away and then less than 5 mins from when she came.. someone else brought the bill. I had to day the same thing to him to.. that we were not ready for the bill. I did not like that at all. No one else around us was provided the bill while so having food/drinks on front of them. I watched the movements, so why did this happen to us? No one should be rushed to get up while still enjoying their meal and/or drinks. Although this did not happen to us, I am still putting it into my review due to witnessing it. The party next to us found a small crystal that looked exactly like glass in their noodle dish. One of them actually had it in his mouth due to taking a bite of his food. He stated that it was hard and definitely not food. He reported it to the same waitress who simply said " Oh sorry, do you want me to get you a new plate of food". She did not ask him if he was alright nor did she bring any manager over too talk matters over with them. They agreed to a new plate, but after we all discussed what just happened, they decided to get the plate of food taken off the bill. Even when they attempted to do that, they were met with the food is already cooking.. so they had to push a little bit to be heard. She took it off of the bill. I disliked how that situation was met. Lack of full apology, no managerial apology nor followup, no automatically insisting to clear it from the bill without being asked by the customer and the fact that they do expected the customer to pay any bill after going through possibly eating glass. My wife and I were appalled. read more

Came here on the busy graduation week, and our party of 7 was seated with good time and had enough space for all the food we ordered. The service was bustling, but they still were able to take our orders and get it out hot and fresh. I ordered the Panang Nua, and the heat had kick to it without sacrificing taste. The curry was warming, deep, smooth, and spicy. The simmered beef was tender and rich, a portioned well with the veggies and curry. I thought this was a perfect dinner for a chilly night and there was enough food that I had some leftovers for lunch the next day. read more

Stumbled upon this Thai restaurant while searching for something to eat. So glad my friend and I decided to check this place out. The ambiance is so cute!! Our server was super sweet and patient since it was our first time here. There is a homey, cozy atmosphere. The food had incredible flavor. Genuinely one of the best Pad See Ew I've ever had. Everything was fresh and packed with spices. The portion sizes are great for the price point. I am writing this review months after I ate here, so I'm blanking if they had a lunch special but if I remember correctly, their lunch prices were good! read more

We happened to come across this Thai restaurant while walking in the area. There is limited seating inside and the walls are adorned with Thai artwork and decor. Once you walk inside, the staff greets you warmly and you are seated right away. We came at almost 5pm so it was mostly empty aside from a couple others. We decided to share a couple dishes - the fried tofu and the Moo Dang dry noodle. First, the fried tofu is nothing like I've tried before as it is firmer with a crispy outer texture. It is served with a couple dipping sauces that provide a sweet and tangy element which is pretty addicting! Now, the Moo Dang dry noodle was delicious. The pork was so tender and juicy, and tasted both slightly sweet and hearty. The noodles were cooked perfectly and still had a nice chew to it. It soaked up the tangy sauce nicely. I'd love to try more dishes next time! read more

I had such a satisfying, hearty lunch here! Their menu offers a great variety of dishes, from soups and noodles to curries and so much more. For appetizers, my favorites were the yam fries and curry puffs. The yam fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and I loved the sweet sauce they were served with. The curry puffs were incredible. I'm obsessed with the flaky, buttery pastry. They're currently fully decked out in the cutest, coziest Christmas décor, creating such a warm and festive atmosphere. I absolutely loved the cozy vibes and holiday ambiance. Highly recommend checking them out for the festive setting and their Christmas specials (amazing drinks and the cutest desserts)! read more

Got the lunch special after class and what a deal. Comes with a main entree , an egg roll or spring roll, and a salad. It's a nice portion that will fill you up. Lunch special goes from 11-3 and there's lots of different things to pick from such as curry, noodles, or rice. I got the Pad See Ew with chicken and it was very flavorful. There's about 20-25ish seats inside with cozy decor. Staff is friendly and service is quick. It is downtown Berkeley so parking is limited to street parking. Overall, a great place to get lunch! read more

Pumpkin curry is such an underrated Thai dish! If you've never tried it, don't be intimidated--the curry itself isn't pumpkin flavored, but it does include a few chunks of kabocha squash mixed in with the other vegetables. The sauce here was well done--creamy and comforting, but not overly rich. My only caveat was that the customer service felt a bit rushed and impersonal, which slightly detracted from the otherwise enjoyable meal. read more

If you're looking for authentic, made-from-scratch Thai food in Berkeley, look no further than Little Plearn Thai Kitchen. This family-owned gem goes back three generations, and you can taste the tradition and love in every dish. We ordered a little of everything and were blown away: Appetizers - The satay chicken was tender and flavorful, the fish cakes were light and perfectly seasoned, and the spicy wings had just the right kick to get us started. Mains - The curry noodle soup was incredible -- you can literally taste the difference in their fresh, scratch-made curry (no paste here!). The fried chicken fried rice was the kids' favorite, while the Pad Kee Mao with shrimp hit that classic drunken noodle spot once I added some of their amazing house-made chili (a family recipe). But the star of the night? The Panang Nua. I'm not even a big red meat eater, but the beef was so tender, and the creamy, rich curry sauce had us both hooked. My husband and I agreed that next time we'll each get our own order and not share! Drinks - We tried the Thai iced tea, butterfly lychee, sunrise cocktail, and Thai iced tea lemonade. My personal favorite was the Sunrise Cocktail (surprisingly, since I'm not usually a fan of orange juice) followed closely by the gorgeous butterfly lychee. All were refreshing and beautifully presented. Desserts - The mango sticky rice was just the right amount of sticky and sweet, while the rotti with matcha ice cream was fun and different. My husband tried ube ice cream for the first time and loved it -- not at all like he expected, and now he's a fan. To top it all off, the staff surprised my husband with a birthday treat, which made the night even more special. The service was warm, the food was unforgettable, and the entire dining experience was top-notch. We left full, happy, and already planning our return. Little Plearn Thai Kitchen is now officially on our birthday and celebration restaurant list -- it's that good! read more

This place has gone downhill. First, the food isn't as good as it was pre-pandemic. Second, they use plastic takeout containers, in violation of Berkeley law. Third, even though I specifically requested "no utensils: no fork, spoon, knife," they still threw 'em in the bag. And 4th, it took them 25 minutes to prepare a 10-min order, even though I requested 2 standard items for takeout in-person when the restaurant was half-empty. It's a little sleazy that restaurants ask for a tip BEFORE you find out all these things. Take-out tip should be earned, and given AFTER the food comes. Caveat emptor. Also, they keep a can of Raid by the front door. Bon Appetit! read more

I came here for the holiday festive decorations. I got an ad from Instagram and was so excited to come. The food came out fast and it tasted good. I've had better but I can't complain. Some things that were different is they put my rice in my curry bowl instead of on the side how most restaurants do it. I wasn't sure how I felt about that. Another thing is there are literal strips of ginger that was in my curry. I don't mind ginger but that's definitely a hefty amount of ginger for one dish. However the service was NOT good. I asked if some dishes can be made vegan and she seemed a bit annoyed. Like I was wasting her time. Water won't be served unless asked. Which is fine, but they did not even check on us at all so they never refilled our waters. We were sitting there for a while after we were done eating and no one asked us for the bill nor any boxes. Mind you we were there for almost 2hrs. We flagged a waitress down and she asked "Do you guys need something?" COMICAL! We haven't touched our plate in 20 minutes and the place closes in 20 minutes....obviously some boxes and the check ? She comes back with boxes no bag. So we're walking around with 2 Chinese boxes in our hand back to our car LOL. Very awkward place. Needs customer service training. read more

Vegetarian review: My Experience: I entered on a Sunday evening with no reservation. The location is in downtown Berkeley by the bart station. The interior was comfortable albeit a bit cramped with nice art on the walls. Service: 4/5 nothing really interesting to report for service Drinks: 4/5 the drinks were were very refreshing be mindful they only have a wine and beer license so while they do have "cocktails" they are all Champaign based Food: 4/5 a nice selection of vegetarian options on the menu. The green chili was purportedly the spiciest thing on the menu but it was not particularly hot. The roti was decent but it felt like it could've been slapped more. The curry noodle soup was fantastic, really sour flavor with buttery umami. read more

Service was fantastic, and a charming little location. Good prices for the portions, which is family style.

Little Plearn Thai Kitchen is located right in the middle of downtown Berkeley, mere steps away from the BART and from the UC Berkeley campus. My family and I stopped by for a quick dinner, and I was pleased to learn that everything was pretty tasty. We ordered a pad Thai, a duck over rice, and an order of Thai suki noodles. The duck and the suki noodles are excellent! I do wish that the pad Thai had more of a distinguishing element to the flavors; they kind of melted together. Nevertheless, it was also very tasty! The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating, and I saw that they offer a menu of lunch specials.the decor inside is cute, with bright colors and lights everywhere. The desserts looked great, too, although we didn't try them. Overall a great option if you're looking for Thai food! read more
