    7. Fried Garlic Ribs
    Inglish R.

    It was my first time trying this spot and I must say it was pretty good. The servers were nice. The reviews did mention how dark it was inside and I would have to agree. Although it was a little darker than most restaurants I was still able to enjoy and see my food. Just use flash if you're taking any photos! Started off with the Thai Tea and wow it was 10/10. It was my first time having Thai tea and I absolutely loved it. I even ordered one to go! I ordered the Pad Thai with chicken and medium heat. Just a heads up if you don't like spicy I would not recommend medium. It was pretty hot even though I am a spicy kinda gal. Probably why their name is spice it up -- they did not hold back. After a while though the spice went away. The garlic ribs were crispy and tasty. Also enjoyed the papaya salad with mild heat. Extremely fresh and crunchy.

    1. Pad Thai
    Autumn L.

    Almost full house. Came here for dinner as it was my second time and loved it! I never tried curry before but it do have a slight kick to it which was perfect. Chicken satay and pad Thai also had much flavor. Will come back again.

    Not worth it.

    Very disappointing, I order 2 items, drunken noodles and kaopoon. Drunken noodles was good, portion was little, but the kaopoon noodles was hard as hell. Wasn't fresh, felt like it was brought out the fridge and microwaved.

    Mango sticky rice
    Alissa H.

    Soooo delicious! Got chicken pad se ew (idk if that's how to spell it) but it was soooo flavorful! Even without spicy! Mango sticky rice was good too! Love that they add lots of cream! Nice people too, fast service.

    2. Red Curry Noodle Soup
    Olivia F.

    10/10 I'm so happy we found this gem!!! We came here for an early Saturday dinner and sat ourselves. The staff were super friendly and attentive. We tried the garlic ribs appetizer, red curry Lao noodle soup with chicken, and pad see ew with chicken and tofu. The ribs were super sticky and flavorful, the portion size was appetizer appropriate. The red curry noodle soup was my favorite! It was so creamy and the noodles weren't soggy. We even took the last bits of soup home with us . The pad see ew was also amazing but on the sweeter side. The veggies were cooked perfectly and spice level can be adjusted. We already can't wait to come back!

    I ordered the seafood delight. No onions. When i say it was good..I mean I inhaled that plate. I'm sad I live an hour away but now I know my go to spot when I'm in town.

    Heavenly Beef

    Wonderful Experience - Spice It Up Heavenly Beef I had a wonderful experience with Spice It Up Heavenly Beef. The beef was incredibly tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned with a rich blend of spices that truly lived up to the name "heavenly." Every bite was savory and satisfying, with just the right balance of heat and aroma. The quality of the ingredients was evident, and the dish was cooked to perfection. It's comforting, delicious, and clearly made with care. Highly recommended for anyone who loves bold flavors and well-prepared beef. I'll definitely be ordering this again!

    1. Papaya Salad
    Mika Y.

    Went on a Monday afternoon for an early dinner. We were seated right away. My Grandma had a wheelchair and she was able to eat and reach the table so that was good. The restaurant is spacious and clean. Our server was very attentive and kind. Her service was amazing. We had a variety of dishes. My favorite is the Pad Thai. It's very flavorful and saucy. I give it a 10/10. The fried fish was delicious too. The grilled chicken was tasty as well with the sauce. The meal total was almost $150 because we also got desserts and drinks. Ask for less sugar on Thai Tea. Mine was super sweet so I had to add more water on my drink. I would come here if I want to splurge on a meal.

    Red curry noodle soup (kao pboon)
    Alex Y.

    We arrived on a Saturday evening and there was no wait at all. They seem to have more take-out orders than dine-in patrons. The food was delicious! Every item we ordered was extremely flavorful. Although I left with a full stomach, I still think that the portions could be a little bit bigger. The interior is also really clean and the host was extremely friendly. I will definitely be back again for more!

    Lao Sausage
    Savannah R.

    My friend and I visited Spice It Up! on Saturday, 11/11/23, during dinner time. We decided to order and share the Fresh Shrimp Roll, Chicken Pad Sa-Ew, Lao Sausage, Lao Noodle Soup, and Mango Sticky Rice. All of the food dishes were truly palatable and flavorful! The fresh roll was great, especially dipped into the peanut sauce. The pad se-ew noodles and veggies were on point. I loved the lemongrass flavor in the sausage. The noodle soup was tasty. Finally, the sticky rice had just the right amount of sweetness. I enjoyed how it wasn't overly sweet. It was adorable how it was presented in the shape of a heart. The service was decent; it could've been slightly more attentive. The inside of the restaurant was beautifully decorated. I will be returning to this restaurant and I recommend coming here!

    Pretty disappointed…read more We sat at our table for a minute like a bunch of deers in headlights unsure if anyone would come greet us. If you're ready to order you will need to use the QR code provided on the table. I personally think some kind of instructions near the QR code/ on the table for the guest would be a little helpful. Nothing crazy either. (Just like a hey order here, and we will be with you shortly ... idk just a thought) If you are patient enough and already ordered someone will indeed come by with water, utensils, napkins and the side you ordered with your pot. For all the staff that was coming in/out the kitchen today service was bare minimum. Hardly anyone came to our table to check on us or the quality of our food. Food wasn't the best for the price either. For me personally none of the pots seemed appealing. I ended up ordering a soup then adding beef, ramen and some corn. Corn was way too sweet. My husband opted for the seafood pot and he later wished he would have just order a custom pot and added a bunch of stuff instead. Way too many veggies. One tiny lobster, two muscles, two shrimp and a partridge in a pear tree.. I ordered the Thai tea and my husband the brown sugar milk tea. Be sure to check and see if your drink already comes with boba so you don't buy extra and not receive extra. My drink was awful and I am a HUGE FAN of Thai Tea. I ended up ordering the same drink as my husband -- the brown shaken milk tea and it was so much better. We still had to pay for all 3 drinks even though the Thai tea tasted like medicine. What really threw me for a loop was the bug (looked like a baby cockroach) crawling towards me on the table. I'm not sure what's going on here but I just was not happy with my experience.

Parking can be challenging as it is in a strip mall and shared with multiple businesses, most of them food places. We parked in the street because the lot was full. Ambiance is unique. Clean and modern. Lots of references to foodie Guy Fieri who visited the establishment before. This is a local small business, they deserve our support! Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

The manager must be a family member, for the original owners to allow this location to go so far down. I stopped in today, after months. 6 months, checked my last review. Yes had an issue that time. Thought maybe the staff changed. I ordered on the kiosk as always, most of the staff looked at me repeatedly, finally, one offered to help, after a customer, a lady nicely told him I was first, he told me he will be with me after. After finishing, he said someone will get my ordered made. No one ever acknowledged my order. Some staff, kept going to the back, coming up front, looking at each other and laughing. So, since the shake machine is in the back, out of sight, I didn't trust them making it, so I stopped a staff member and asked to cancel my order. He did without an issue, because no one bother to start it. As the on duty manager was refunding me. A staff member came from the back and lowly asked him if it was canceled. He turned and said yes. So maybe, they already cleaned the machine and don't want to use it, not sure. He did offer a free pastry, I had one on my order, but told him no, it was ok. Always make a point to withhold your money, if you aren't treated as a wanted customer. Everything is too high nowadays. And unfortunately, employees think, their bosses pay them, regardless of money coming through the business. Also, after the previous manager, the food quality has gone way down. It's sad to see the place so empty, compared to how it was before. So disappointing!

My wife and I stopped in after our jog along the Tidewater Biketrail, making this our lunch pit stop after starting at Lathrop Road. The Char Siu Pork Bánh Mì is an easy 5/5. The baguette was fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft and chewy inside. The char siu pork was tender, juicy, and perfectly caramelized around the edges. Crisp pickled carrots and daikon, plenty of cilantro, and fresh jalapeños brought everything together. It's a well-balanced sandwich with a portion that's just right. The Grilled Chicken Roll'd deserves more attention. The grilled chicken reminded me of a flavorful chicken satay, and the peanut sauce complemented every bite without overpowering the fresh ingredients. If you're looking for a lighter, protein-packed option, this is it. They also offered complimentary strawberry and passion fruit refreshers. They were a little sweeter than my preference, but the flavors were refreshing. Next time, I'd order one at 50% sweetness. The restaurant is clean, inviting, and a welcome escape from the Central Valley heat. Service has always been friendly, and it's the kind of place where both the staff and regulars make you feel welcome. There's also a Tracy location, but I find myself coming back to the Manteca restaurant. It's smaller, more intimate, and has a charm all its own.
