Located in Main Street Cupertino, parking is plentiful and easy to find. The ambiance is quiet and relaxing. Crispy pork belly (5/5): outside was really crispy and the inside was very tender. The garlic flavor was also very good. Overall, Pineapple Thai has some very delicious food. The ambiance is relaxing and nice and service is good.

Came here on the weekend with a group of 11 people. We just want to have a good gathering and eat some Thai food, but their unacceptable service totally screw up the vibe! We order the green papaya salad. You can look at the attached photo this is the photo from their official website where it clearly come with shrimp and lettuce. However, yesterday they tell us they no longer serve with shrimp and replace the lettuce with a big uncut raw cabbage! That is totally unacceptable! It look exactly like a big cutting board on the plate for serving. We very friendly ask the waiter why it look so different from the official picture, and if they can maybe cook the cabbage just a little bit to soften it because we are uncomfortable to eat raw cabbage. Then the restaurant manager come over. So mean! The manager just tell us, "All Thai eating like this!" and run away with a black face! Hello? Customer order food based on your menu photo, we don't dig in to the cuisine history before we come eat! This very unfriendly response from the manager totally ruin our whole party mood. To be honest, the food in general is just acceptable. But do NOT order the Duck garlic noodle. The noodle was way too soft. Even though food is average, I will definitely put this place on my black list. We don't want to risk the vibe and pay 20% tip just to get black face and bad attitude. By the way, the restaurant had lots of empty table, and I see they get so many 1-star review in the last 6 months. Now I know the reason. Anyway, black list!

In a well decorated restaurant where a meal is close to $40 and 20% service charge is mandatory, I had better expectations. First the food. We ordered the beef mango and the duck garlic noodles. The beef mango doesnt come with rice so we had to pay extra for a small bowl. Taste was good but not fantastic. Duck was fine as well, however the noodles' texture was like an overcooked instant noodle that had dried up. We couldn't finish the noodles. We also tasted a few other things ordered by the group and none of us thought it was gorgeous but merely average and not worth the extra price. Second, the service. Our group ordered the papaya salad but it came entirely different from what their official picture portrayed. Ingredients were different, and the waitress explained it doesnt come with shrimps any longer. Fine, however we were not expecting the raw cabbage on the side, and some couldn't eat raw cabbage. We asked to have the cabbage steamed or changed to another type of vegetable. Be reminded we had never touched it when we made the request. What we received was a snoobish conversation about how that was originally served in Thailand and there is no way they would steam the cabbage for us. One of the waitress just turned her shoulder and took the dish away with a straight face. Even they offered to remove that from our bill after a lot of fuss with 3 different people, the vibe was ruined. What happened to customer service etiquette anymore?! 2 stars was for the server which tried to help us talk to the owner/ manager, otherwise it would have been 1.

Chicken wings
Deka S.

If you like Thai food with good service, this is one of them. I also like the location of this restaurant. It's a nice area to walk around post a good food coma. In the order, there was Chicken wings (8/10) which was really tasty but for some reason the wings were thinner than usual. Pineapple fried rice with chicken (9/10) was really good and enough shareable portion. Recommend it only if you don't mind pineapple in your fried rice. Green curry with tofu (10/10) was very less sweet and perfectly spicy. With Jasmine rice it went really well Pad Thai with tofu (7/10) was a bit more sweet than I am used to. Overall, a great Thai restaurant. We went for a birthday dinner and the server surprised us with Mango Sticky rice (10/10) to end the meal.

Came here for dinner and ordered a feast! The seafood dishes here are absolutely incredible and beautiful for photos. The grilled giant prawns were spectacular-perfectly cooked, smoky, and paired amazingly with the green dipping sauce. The Pad Thai was also a solid highlight, packed with a generous portion of plump, fresh shrimp and great traditional flavors. However, a couple of the rice and meat dishes fell a bit short. The beef curry sauce had a nice flavor, but the beef texture was unfortunately overcooked and quite tough to chew. We also tried the pineapple fried rice, which looked great but tasted a bit too dry and lacked the fluffiness we were hoping for.

Pad Thai
Merlissa A.

This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the Bay Area! This was probably my 5th time coming here and I think a review is long overdue! First off, my go to orders are: - Pad Thai (spicy/ medium spice) - Nam Jim Jaew w/ Pork - Papaya salad - Sweet Mango rice - Thai Tea Food here tastes so fresh and flavorful! I'm not typically a salad person but i will eat a salad here! lol I think it has to do with the spices and sauce infused with the salad + it's proteins! When you eat here expect to pay a certain amount- food is pricey but it's worth it for the freshness and service! On a nice day, I recommend eating outside- it's such a vibe and they have lots of shade for those hot summery days. They had the FIFA game playing on their screen outdoors! Pineapple Thai, is something you gotta try!

Pad Thai & Thai Tea
Irene L.

Came here for a team lunch and was seated right away. We had a group of 11, and instead of doing family-style dining, everyone ordered their own entrée. Be sure to check out their lunch special, they're definitely worth considering! I ordered the Pad Thai since it's one of my favorite dishes and my go-to benchmark for judging a Thai restaurant. It did not disappoint. In fact, it's one of the better Pad Thais I've had in Cupertino. I also ordered a Thai tea, which was delicious. Knowing how sensitive I am to caffeine, I planned to take the rest to go, but later found out they don't offer to-go cups. Not wanting to waste it, I ended up finishing the drink before leaving. Overall, the food, service, and ambiance were all solid. I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu and I wouldn't hesitate to order the Pad Thai again.

Randomly picked this restaurant for a Mother's Day lunch. Since we did not have a reservation, we were assigned seats by the bar. We ordered two dishes from the Mother's Day special menu -- the Green Curry Short Rib and the Surf & Turf Pad Thai -- as well as the Pixel Wings from the regular menu. I have to say, the Green Curry Short Rib was so, so, so good. The short rib was incredibly tender and had a rich coconut milk aroma. It was the best short rib I have ever had. The chicken wings were also delicious -- crispy on the outside while juicy and tender on the inside. Compared to the other two dishes, the Pad Thai was pretty average. Overall, I will definitely come back. I really hope they add the Green Curry Short Rib to the regular menu.

Pad See U with shrimp

The food was a bit too salty overall, but it was pretty good. The servers were friendly, and it wasn't crowded since we went on the weekend.

Green curry tofu
Chandrika B.

Loved everything about it - location, outdoor seating, service and food :) Its located right next to LazyDog (which is also great for American cuisine) and koi palace. there is a parking garage (free!) nearby 2 mins walk away and lots of street parking as well. The outdoor seating is inviting on a sunny afternoon and service was friendly. In $120 (after tip) we got: - papaya salad - 5/5 - loved the tangy spicy nutty salad and it lives up to the hype. Soooo good :) - chicken Penang curry - 5/5 - comes with portion of steamed white rice and was flavorful, not watery and lots of chicken :) - green curry tofu - 5/5 - creamy and loaded with veggies and comes with rice - pad thai chicken - 4/5 - i wish it was a little less sweet - rockfish - 5/5 - amazing texture, spicy and delicious. It also comes with a side of rice. This is owned by the same person who owns "must be thai" and i love that too. This is a more fancy place to sit and eat which is great :) Definitely coming back for thai iced tea and desserts!!

Outside of restaurant
Ken D.

Very cool place, with a clear pineapple motif! There is a lot of indoor and outdoor seating. The service is fast and always happy to make suggestions. The food was awesome, generous portions. Very tasty. Will be back again!

Standard Thai food for the most part. A little pricey but it's in main street Cupertino so the vibes are nice. Pad see ew 4/5 - good and standard for this dish. Pork jowl 4/5 - I'm not a huge pork jowl eater but this dish was still tasty. The pork jowl was pretty tender

Vegetable pastry appetizers
Tina A.

Pineapple Thai is in a great location & I'm sure it draws a large crowd on weekdays from Apple park. However our last visit left us quite disappointed with our meal. The vegetable pastries were hot on the outside, but some of the stuffing was still cold. Despite this issue, the pastry itself was flaky and tasty. What truly shocked us was the portion sizes of the other dishes. The green curry was mostly broth, with barely any chicken. The sticky rice came in a beautiful container, but it was the smallest portion of rice we have ever been served at a restaurant. The Pad Thai was equally disappointing. The flavor was okay, but there was nothing substantial on the plate. In these challenging times, restaurants are trying to cut costs, but when customers feel they're not getting their money's worth, they won't return.

Unfortunately, with the new pricing, I don't feel like it's as good of a value anymore. A 20% discount just doesn't compare to the old happy hour prices, especially when before wells cocktails were around $7 and beers for $5. With the current pricing at Cedar Room, I'm now walking out spending close to $100, compared to the $40-$50 I would normally spend before. I really like Cedar Room and have enjoyed coming here regularly, which is why it's disappointing to see the happy hour change this way. At these prices, I'm honestly not sure how often I'll be coming back. I hope they reconsider the happy hour pricing because I'd love to keep supporting a place I've enjoyed.

Damn! Talk about an EXPERIENCE!…read more Two of our party of four went inside to check in for our reservation while the other two searched for street parking. When we got inside, we were seated in the lounge area for dinner. Let's just say our knees were basically at our chests because two of us are 6'1" and 6'4". Thankfully, the team was incredibly accommodating and was able to find us a booth that worked much better. The atmosphere? SO good. We absolutely loved the vibe. But the service... I can't even begin to say enough about how amazing it was. Camille was TOP NOTCH! She could handle every ounce of sarcasm we threw her way , and she consistently went above and beyond. If something didn't seem quite right, she was immediately there offering to make it right. We started with drinks, and I ordered the Spicy Marg. It came out without the spice, even though Camille had warned me beforehand that it was going to have some heat. She immediately offered to take it back and have it remade, but honestly, it was still really good and I didn't want to waste it. If it had sucked, trust me, I would've said something! My next favorite was the Fig'n Around. Not only because I'm married into a fig family , but because it was genuinely delicious. And one thing I really appreciated about both drinks was that they weren't overly sweet. Now... DINNER. We asked Camille for her recommendation between the 40 oz Tomahawk and the 30 oz Ribeye. She initially recommended the Tomahawk, but once we added the Captain's Catch to the order, she suggested we go with the Ribeye instead since there would already be plenty of food for all four of us. And she was absolutely right. Everything we had was SO good. The only real negative I walked away with that night was the mac & cheese. It was a little overcooked, which is exactly why I usually stay away from pasta. BUT -- do NOT let that deter you from coming here. That was such a minor thing compared to the overall experience. I honestly cannot wait until I'm back in the area because I will absolutely be going back. I'm already craving everything we had that night! Oh, and the saddest part of the whole evening... I ordered the white chocolate bread pudding to go and STILL haven't tasted it. I completely forgot about it because I'm not usually a dessert person! If you go, ask for Camille's section if she's working. She was fantastic. And no, before anyone asks -- I do NOT know Camille outside of this experience. She was just genuinely that good.

If you ask, you can get a little dish of nuts as a complimentary snack with your cocktails. The cocktails were delicious, like the "East Meets West", with most cocktails ranging from $16-20. They have a separate menu for wine and champagne that they brought us awhile later. I think you may need to ask for that if they don't give that to you right away. The drinks were delicious and made pretty quickly, but if you expect table service at this lounge, you may be waiting a long time. We found that the best way to get drinks here is to go to the bar to order, and they can bring the drinks over (or you can wait for them, of course). For the price, I'd expect better service but you may need to go further than Sunnyvale. Overall I think Nokori is a decent bar lounge, and I love the niche is on Japanese whiskey.
