    Tom kha soup
    Nandini H.

    Stopped by for lunch during our stay here. They can make most things vegan vegetarian which is amazing and everything we tried tasted really good. The lady at front desk was super sweet and warm. Ambience is really cute with all the paintings on the wall and great for a casual meal. I would highly recommend if you are craving something that hits the spot and is generous portions.

    Fresh Spring Rolls
    Hannah C.

    Decided to try this Thai place for the first time last week and wow was it delicious! The flavors of everything are just very good and everything's made fresh. The first time we went, there was a Saturday evening so the service was a little slow and there only was like one worker and she was pretty much handling everything taking orders getting orders out, checking out people, etc. The second time we visited, the service was much faster as the restaurant was not as busy on a weekday evening. The decor site is very authentic and I enjoy the ambience very much. This is our new Thai place for sure! I highly recommend this restaurant. Also they're on DoorDash.

    Green Curry with Chicken
    Norman R.

    Delicious Delicious Delicious! After a long absence I returned to purchase their Green Chicken Curry with medium plus spice, and the Fresh Spring Rolls with Tofu. All was delicious as well as visually appealing! Well packaged for carry-out and reasonably priced. Totally enhanced my World Cup viewing experience of the Haiti vs Brazil match

    Checked this place out based on their menu items and the good reviews. Located in a huge plaza with plenty of parking. Upon entering there was only 1 waitress who was doing everything from taking orders, bringing out orders, ringing people up, and bussing tables so it was a bit of a small wait to get a table as she was solo. There were a few small parties she was tending to when we got there. Give the cook a raise! Everything we ordered was delicious! The cook named Thoum perfected all flavors and the food came out all together in a timely manner. We ordered the crispy noodle lard nah, beef pad see ew, and nam ngiao. Pad see ew and crispy noodle lard nah were delicious in flavors. The only thing with the lard nah was it contained too much gravy sauce so maybe less on that but overall still fire. It was my 1st time ever having nam ngiao. I don't think I've ever had it homemade or even seen it at any restaurants. I was curious and so glad I gave it a try it was hearty packed with a hefty amount of protein but yet the broth was light and refreshing. It contained pork ribs and pork blood tofu which was my 1st time having that as well. It was like a spongy texture like the pork blood was dehydrated and fermented. It was good! We also got mango sticky rice for dessert which was a perfect ending to our meal. Not too sweet just the way I like it. All the decorations inside were so cute even down to the water cups. Everything is nicely decorated to give you a glimpse of the Thai culture. I love it!

    Pad Thai with Shrimp
    Kianoosh C.

    We came into Mae Sae with a big party on a Saturday during our trip to Temecula. We had a party of 10, so I called ahead and they were very friendly and accommodating, getting us a table as soon as we needed for the amount of people we had. The inside of the restaurant is very decorated, and although on the smaller side had a very nice vibe. Our server was quick to get all of us sat and had waters and hot water out fast. We ordered a large array of dishes, and almost all of them were great. Some of the standouts were the papaya salad, crispy pork, and tom yum fried rice. Our whole table was blown away by the tom yum fried rice. It had a very well done wok flavor and texture to the rice while still accurately capturing all of the classic flavor notes of a tom yum. From what we know, everything just tasted very high quality and authentic. We just wish we lived closer so we could come eat here again. If we are ever in the area I'm sure we will!

    Yellow Curry
    Mary D.

    WOW. What a great hidden gem! Best Thai spot in the area, I felt like I was whisked away to Northern Thailand forreal. MUST TRY dishes: pad Thai and yellow curry. The tomyum soup was too spicy for me. Great service and love the ambiance and custom decor, especially the hand drawn paintings throughout the restaurant. Would highly recommend!

    our feast today :)
    Anthony M.

    You know the food is bomb when you come to a place four times in the last five days HAHA. Their crying tiger special entree is my go-to as well as their fried pork belly. And not to mention the service is top-notch. This is definitely my new go-to Thai restaurant in the Riverside area. Thank you Mae Sai for satisfying me and my cravings every time. :)

    Spicy  Papaya Salad with Chicken Quarter & Sticky Rice
    Tony C.

    Had to try this restaurant out because of all of the good reviews. Did not disappoint. The food was authentic & delicious. My girls, wife, & I enjoyed each bite. Highly suggest the Yellow Curry, Spicy Lao Papaya Salad, Crispy Chicken Leg Quarter, & Pad Won Sen Glass Noodle. Definitely going to be worth coming back to this restaurant whenever we pass thru to San Diego.

    Kao Soi Kai
    Linda K.

    The cold weather in Temecula had me craving something warm and soupy, and after browsing nearby restaurants, I decided to try Mae Sai. The Kao Soi on the menu looked very tempting, so I ordered it. When it arrived, the portion was generous, especially the chicken, and it came with pickles on the side. However, the soup was quite sweet for my taste, and the sweetness overpowered the other flavors (ps: I have tried this menu on other Thai resto and have better taste - to my opinion). On a positive note, the service was wonderful--the lady who assisted me was very kind, attentive, and caring. Inside the place also has some cute and colorful decor making it pleasant dining indoor.

    Toys over screens!

    A perfect spot to bring your kids under 8!! Lots of dinosaurs and little cars to play with and their food is amazing!!

    Drunken Noodles

    This was a delicious experience!!! I came here on a whim needing to satisfy my craving for Thai and this place did NOT disappoint! Upon entering the restaurant it gives a very humble small family vibe eatery. It's not a huge restaurant so if that's what you're looking for this is not the place for you, but that's how I knew the food was gonna be BOMB. The service was a little slow because it was a one woman show this night, but I did not mind because the ending results was a delicious ending. All the plates we ordered were flavorful and had a true authentic Thai food profile. If you know about Thai food spicy, then you will understand this comment when I say some restaurants have turned down their Thai spice level for the American masses this location when I got medium it was a true Thai spicy medium usually when I go to places and get medium, it will still taste like a mild heat, not here and I thoroughly appreciated that. I will definitely be back at this location because the food was delicious. The decorations were very cute and I enjoyed every bite.

    Thai tea
    Richard M.

    I went here not knowing how good it was or anything, just hungry and had a craving for some Thai food. I wondered in blindly was was pleasantly welcomed by the server. You grab a menu and sit down at any table of your cosen and in totally cool with that. Before I get to the fold I must say the music was in point and they even had a tv playing some cartoons for kids over head which can be a nice touch. The inside was beautifully painted within theme of the restaurant and I love that kind of stuff. Now for the food, excellent. We had my current favorite the Pad Woon Sen and some Basil fried rice. We added seafood to them and was happy that none of the seafood was over cooked and remained tender. Everything tasted fresh. I was also happy they had fresh Thai chilis for those of us who like to order Thai spice like myself. This Amps up the heat without unbalancing the flavor and they executed beautifully. The Thai tea was also creamy and a nice addition to the meal. Also look at the dishes we were served in!!! Come on!!! I love the little things when the food is so on point. Check them out and let me know your thoughts!

    No tofu in the majority of the pieces. Mainly lettuce
    Alexis O.

    Check your food before you carry out. Obviously they skimp you on the tofu if u are not dining in. I got thai tofu spring rolls and they cut them up into multiple parts which was horrible to go because they all stuck together and ripped and the tofu was 1 little tiny sliver in it. Not happy not a good experience and I will never go here again

Both burritos were fresh, colorful and packed with flavor. Every bite had the perfect crunch from the crisp vegetables, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. The sauces were served on the side, letting us customize each bite, and they complemented the flavors without overpowering them.

We stopped for dinner and the did not appear busy. There was plenty of free parking available in the shopping center and indoor/outdoor seating. It was very windy and too cold to eat outside, so we opted to eat inside. There were only four tables to choose from and one bathroom. This became an issue when someone was already using the bathroom, probably blowing it up since it had already been five plus minutes, and both of my kids had to go (we ended up going to Trader Joe's to use the bathroom). The food finally came out. We ordered 2 tri-tip plates, a chicken sandwich, a kids quesadilla w/rice, and 4 drinks. I was concerned about the tri-tip after reading many others complaining about it being overcooked. This was not an issue. The meat came out cooked perfectly, but the pieces were small. The mashed potatoes were good and buttery. The mac & cheese was good and had a nice flavor. The Brussel sprouts were undercooked, hard, and bland. The bread had soaked up the blood from the tri-tip and was soggy gross. The kids quesadilla was literally 2 store bought tortillas and some sprinkled cheddar cheese that wasn't even melted in between. I didn't care for it, but I'm glad my son ate it. Overall, I had high expectations for this place and it was lacking.

My only advice: if you're a dessert lover like we are, it's a little too small to share! Get the s'mores AND another dessert so you can share both and try something else on the menu.
