Not authentic Thai food. Many of the dishes are missing key ingredients like Thai basil and thick coconut cream (not just coconut milk). It just doesn't taste right. read more

I've eaten in the restaurant and loved the food and service. Tonight I'm home sick with a cold and in need of some spicy food. I ordered Spicy Vegetable and Tofu with Spicy Tom Yum Goong soup. Both show a pepper next to them so I was counting on spicy. Hubby ran and grabbed them. BOTH dishes were completely devoid of ANY spice. There was one small teaspoon of spicy sauce on the side that I quickly stirred into the vegetables dish but to no avail. Both were tasteless. HUGE disappointment and too sick to return and wait for corrections. But WHY show a pepper and why say "spicy" when you include zero spice for flavor. Vege dish dropped in the trash. And the side of rice (which I ordered solely to help cool the spice level) trash. Soup I added a bunch of pepper and ate half but not even close to palatable. read more

Food was good but service was terrible never came to fill our water, forgot part of our order overall poor service I recommend you go somewhere else read more

Great food! The ambiance needs a little work, but the food is five star and made up for the clutter, crooked pictures hanging on the wall and outdated decor. The food did not disappoint. Definitely would recommend anyone give it a try! read more

Food is good , service is slow. A worker kept walking past as if she didn't see me at the front counter to pick up my order. Last couple times I've ordered my food a certain spice but it wasn't right. read more

Worst food and service! First we sat and waited for 15mins before the waiter took our drink order and the restaurant wasn't even half full. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, chicken pad thai, lunch special and appetizer plate. Let's start with the rice, there were enough medium size shrimp but the rice was light in color, not enough flavor or seasoning, no egg or vegetables. Tempura appetizers platter was not as lite as tempura should be. Chicken pad thai was disgusting, chicken was dry the noodles so rubbery I was chocking on it, I could hardly tear it up with my teeth!! The only thing good was the egg drop soup. The service was extremely slow, we received all the food except for the lunch special which took another 15mins, they kept apologizing for the kitchen being backed up with orders, but the place only had 5 tables full and two waiters, I tried this place before and didn't like it but decided to give it another shot, MISTAKE!!! I can't believe I paid $43 for food I threw away. read more

This place is a pathetic excuse for a restaurant. The food is very low quality (canned mushrooms in both my dishes!) and bland and the decor/atmosphere is terrible. My partner and I were seated right next to the vacuum cleaners (romantic!) and the 60 watt bulb over our table (over all the tables) ensured that we could have performed surgery during our meal. Oh, and this is one of those restaurants where they have the strange notion that it would be enticing or helpful to put photographs of their various meals on the table (under the glass) for customers to look at. Aside from the fact that the photographs were clearly not taken by a professional (poor lighting, poor framing), they were all sun-faded, making the dishes look indiscernible and resembling piles of vomit. No restaurant should post photographs of their food. Bad idea. They always fade and end up making the food look bad. I gave the teenage waiter my honest feedback (politely) when he asked how our meal was and then he acted completely shocked that I would have anything negative to say about the experience. Sorry, kid. I've eaten Thai food all over the United States and Salatip had THE WORST food and atmosphere I've ever come across in a Thai restaurant. read more

I'm not sure why the reviews are so negative. Every time I've gone here I've had very good food at a decent price. Seriously from Nor Cal to L.A. this is my favorite Thai food place, and I don't say that lightly. They have really good food and you'd pay at least %50 more for the same food in the bay area. The atmosphere is what you'd expect in Lancaster so I guess that's why I took off one star. In any case, they're definitely reliable for a quick Thai fix. read more

Love the Pad Thai. Love the Fried rice. I'll kill a man for the forget me not bread. Extra sauce. Have not had a disappointing meal from here yet. read more

This is one of my go to Thai places in the AV. They have a large menu with a lot of choices. Their BBQ chicken is the best among all of the Thai places in the AV. I like their krapow- they use two different kinds of hot peppers. Their curries are delicious; they have this appetizer that is like little pockets of chicken and shrimp made with egg roll skin- Yum. Service can be spotty, but in general is good. All in all, one of the best Thai places in the AV. read more

I have received no response to this complaint. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 12/18/2015 To: Penny Lim, Owner Operator Sala Tip Restaurant Lancaster Ca Dear Ms. Lim Tonight, 6:00pm, my wife, myself and a friend chose once again to visit your restaurant for dinner. My wife and I received our food in a timely manner, but noted the extremely untimely wait for the arrival of our friend's meal. We initially believed it to be possibly more of a specialty meal, with a longer preparation period, until we reminded the small statured waitress serving us, that after almost 30 minutes our friend had not yet been served. The waitress stated that she would check on the order, but gave no indication as to the unfair, blunt and highly unreasonable wait, our friend had already experienced. The three of us continued to converse for nearly an additional twenty minutes, noting that my wife and I, had nearly completed our meal, with our friend's meal nowhere in sight. We urgently flagged for the second waitress, who also stated that she would attempt to determine as to what was going on. She returned with the meal almost ten minutes later. We inquired as to what caused such an unbelievably and unreasonable delay. She stated that "They forgot."(first 3 letters of her name tag were Dua) She returned to our table several minutes later and inquired if everything was alright. We calmly responded by stating "No, our friend had to wait more than forty five minutes for her meal. Your waitress held up an open hand , apparently to silence us and stated "That's fine." We stated "No , it was not fine.," as she simply walked away , ignoring us. The temperament and service attitude of this waitress made us ill. (first 3 letters of her name tag were Dua) We asked the smaller female waitress, if we could speak to the manager. The male waiter came to the table and reported that the manager was not there. I asked him for the name of the manager and informed him that I would follow up with the manager at a later time. As we exited the facility, I reported to the larger female waitress, that we were not inclined to leave a tip, due to the dis-service and her unprofessional and disrespectful servicing. She maintained the rude and disrespectful attitude and repeated "It's OK!" and again walked away ignoring us. (first 3 letters of her name tag were Dua) I have since noted reviews of your facility, and note, the slow service, as the biggest complaint. The comments regarding the food, (whenever it arrived) have been positive. I submit that in addition to the fact an order was totally forgotten, ( which can fairly be excused, as anyone can make a mistake), the unsolicited discourtesy we experienced from your waitress (first 3 letters of her name tag were Dua) was above and beyond any expectation of a patron mandated to pay for it. read more

I ordered take out and they didn't include any utensils or napkins. I ordered pad Thai and had to eat on the run so I just ate it with my hands! How disappointing lol. I also ordered the egg rolls and the sweet and sour sauce they gave me was so watery when I opened the container it splattered all over my shirt! Lol. It's funny but sad at the same time. read more

Food is really good compared to other places in town. But really I'm writing this review because they deliver and that's amazing because it's hard to get anything other than pizza delivered living in the AV. So last time I ordered we got the pad Thai, pad woon sen, and mango sticky rice, and it only cost us $21 to have it delivered. Super cheap, convenient and fast delivery, hot delicious food, no complaints here! read more

Service was good, food came out a little longer than average places. We ordered the pad Thai chicken and Seafood fried rice which is good. However, the Tom Kha gai soup was least expected. More of the watery side and little extra sour. Thai tea was little too sweet. read more

Best Pad Thai I have had since I moved to CA! It was really good. My experience was limited to a quick order at the counter, waiting a few minutes and going to pick it up so I cannot tell you what dining here would be like. Service was friendly though. The noodles were perfect, had good sauce and decent heat as I had asked for extra spicy. (I think they gave me a 7 out of 10 on the heat scale - they looked at me like I was nuts when I asked for 8, lol) The dish had tin foil on the bottom to keep it warm as we were traveling and came with crushed peanuts and a wedge of lime. I was sorry I did not get another dish to go from here. The dish looked like pad thai and did not have all this veggie filler I have had to get used to from other places. Just green onion and a good balance of bean spouts. And for under $10 with shrimp! The shrimp was good - NOT all rubbery and freezer burnt. Great recommendation to us from Antelope Valley Winery (I had asked about local Thai food as I always do) and cannot wait to head back to this area to come here again. read more

My bf and I were craving Thai food but didn't want to go far. I've seen this place when I go do my nails next door so we tried it one Wed night. The service was okay. Food was good. Bill was decent. I would come back again. read more

Came by last night for a quick bite. Since I was the only customer at 5pm, food was served very quickly. But the quality of food - where do I start... I ordered only one item: seafood soup. The broth was nothing else but a very sour water (lemongrass) with a can of coconut milk dumped to it. No other flavors. Well, there were couple of dry hot thai peppers in it, but no real flavor. The seafood was mediocre: 2 muscles, 2 shrims, couple of pieces some unidentified fish and couple of squid pieces. Not enough for two people (thanks god I was alone). The seafood was overcooked and came out rubbery. I paid (with tax) 15 dollars for that! A way too expensive for this poor quality of seafood. Don't recommend. read more

love this place. Papaya salad and chicken fried rice are awesome. Lunch prices are great. read more

Went on a week night, called to order pick up. They seemed pretty busy as I was on hold for a little while but when the lady came back on line she was super polite and apologetic about the wait, I ordered.. mild chicken curry side of steamed rice and pad sew ee..and was told it would be ready in about 10 minutes. So I drove over.. Car ride is about ten minutes so figured it would be ready when I got there, it wasn't. I came inside and was welcomed by a very nice lady and realized the restaurant was very busy as a stream of more people came in behind me. I sat in the waiting room and waited about 15 more minutes as I waited another waitress came by and asked if I had been helped I let her know that I had she was very friendly and said she would go check and see what was taking so long, about 2 minutes later she came back with my order. Everything was hot and freshly made for a great price! Food was great..The service was good and I'll definitely order again! read more

Favorite Thai place in the AV. been coming here for over 10 years. Still the best tasting, the best price and the greatest portions. Noodles, Curry, Soups...cant go wrong with any of those choices. read more

We absolutely love this place! I personally love their chicken pad Thai. It's a nice place to eat at ,large enough for big families or just order out if you prefer. Staff is very nice and portion size is very good. Try it! read more

I eat here all the time, sometimes the service is a little slow, but the food is worth the wait, I always order a combination meal and it is worth every penny. My hubby loves the BBQ chicken and out of all the Thai places in the AV this one according to him has the best BBQ chicken. read more

This is by far my favorite Thai spot in the AV. They have so many options and everything I've tried has been wonderful. The service is great, and they prepare your order quickly when you get to go. I totally recommend this spot to anyone visiting the area! read more

Our Thai place in Lancaster. The spicy pad Thai Is our favorite and we don't try other places. Good food value and good prices.

So so sad and disappointed at the management. I've been going here for years!! And never have they ever let me down this much. I took my sister here and she was just as unhappy with the service as I was. We waited over 15 minutes for our order to be taken and over 30 minutes after that just to get our first dish. They brought out the wrong dish at first and then made us wait even longer for our other dishes. Every other table was promptly helped and served. Overall an hour from sitting down to just getting all our food. Worst of all the staff lied saying the manager wasn't in the house so we couldn't get a discount for the terrible service. The manager was the one who took our order first! It's such a shame since the food is so good. read more

I come here very often with my family and generally love it, but last night I ordered the Fried Pompano and got super sick afterwards. :( I would generally say 1 star for causing food poisoning, but like I said, I've come multiple other times and never gotten sick, so I could have picked up a bug any other place. Usually I get some fried rice, so that's a safe bet. Also definitely grab the Thai Iced Coffee. Delicious! One free refill inside the restaurant, and you can get it to go. read more

Just got take out and she hands me a menu to look at. So I order and she charged WAY MORE than the menu says and when I inquired she just blurted out "Prices not same now, that menu old". That is false advertising and was off-putting (as was her attitude- not nice at all) But I do have to say the food I got was really really good. So I probably will go again for take out but just ask BEFORE I place my order what the updated price is. Just wish she was kinder and appreciated the business during this tough pandemic - makes me wonder if they raised the price currently which is not so nice (taking advantage of those who can't hardly afford much in the first place right now). But the food I got was really good. read more

We have been going to this place ever since we move to A.V. in 2005. Ever since the pandemic and after we decide to give it a try again. The place looks deserted and about 7 people inside. The young unfriendly, motionless server who took our order ( she does not want to be there with an attitude like that) Overall, my experience in that place was not a very good one. We spent $80+ not including tips for combo dinner#2 with chicken teriyaki. Hubby, complain that the chicken tastes like it came out of the bag and drizzles it with terayaki sauce and instead of egg roll he got onion rings and some other greasy veggies. I've never had onion rings with my rice before... Shrimp pad Thai is salty and sour with cabbage & no eggs, missing bean sprouts and carrots. Wonton soup is bland and watery few vegetables & 2 shrimps. Shrimp fried rice full of soy sauce & 5 tiny shrimps. Angel wings not the same taste as a few years back. The service we received from the ladies is not very pleasing. Food is very, very expensive and not the same taste., must be a new owner. No, I would not go back or would recommend this place. Btw, my first choice of Thai restaurant was in the same parking lot as Target on 10th St West & Ave.K. Like I said earlier we want to try "The Salatitp" one more time to support them but not this time. read more

This food is so delicious, my go to Thai food !!! I often ask for delivery and the older man is very nice and always on time read more

I've come back many times since my first review. The Thai yellow curry is my favorite, and I tend to get it a couple of times a month now. Makes for a great two meal dish that heats up really well the next day. Even the steamed rice that comes with it is oddly delicious for being such a standard menu item. read more

Ate lunch here. Great Thai iced tea with coconut jelly! Good (free) egg drop soup. Green curry chicken was slightly below average/my expectations. Curry base had decent flavor. It had jalapeños (kind of odd - but it is Palmdale/Lancaster) and green and red bell peppers. Also had fresh green beans, which were good. The problem was the chicken - all of it was gray in color and tasted old and microwaved. Had the meat been better, I would have given them three stars. Lunch also came with a small fried spring roll and a fried wonton. read more

My goto Thai food restaurant, the food is tasty, plenty of fresh vegetables. I have not tried anything too spicy yet. The staff is friendly and professional, attentive to your needs.

Everything is good here! Staff is very friendly, fast service. Best Pad Thai in the AV, in my opinion that is.

The food was great and the Thai iced tea was awesome. The portions were huge. The service was prompt and curteous. The only thing I didn't like was the actual restaurant. It didn't look nice. It's run down and kinda sketchy. Once ur in ur booth it feels better but I think next time, I'm gonna order to go. read more

Upon entering the place We were struck by the strange lights above all the tables. Food was a hit or miss, some dishes were excellent while others were unimpressive. Fried rice was delicious and the fried filet of sole was crispy on the outside and buttery soft on the inside. The beef jerky was tough, smelly and over salted. I should have ordered soup instead. The that bbq chicken was NOT FRESH AT ALL, there is nothing worse that. Stale chicken. The roasted crispy duck was awful too much soy and allspice and the skin was not crispy just a total miss. read more

Had dinner at this restaurant with a coworker last month. Food was OK. I had the green curry with tofu spicy level four. It was not spicy nor was it flavorful. Service was decent. There is sufficient parking. Location of the restaurant is not in a sketchy area to the best of my knowledge. I would not come to this restaurant again read more

This place is amazing. When you walk in it is inviting and clean. Staff are very friendly. We have been here twice and had the orange chicken which is one of the best I've ever had. The duck curry I have tried super and medium heat and both were great. If you like hot they can defiantly make this dish on point with both flavor and heat all combined. The Pad Thai was also one of the better pad Thai that I have had. Very flavorful without over doing the fish sauce. A must try restaurant hidden away from the rush of the malls. read more
