Sunset Thai Restaurant - Tom Kha (Cup) - Thai Near Me - Pismo Beach, California

After a day at Pismo Beach, decided to try some Thai food for a light dinner. This was about .8 mile from our hotel and is located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. We got there about 8 pm We ordered the chicken satay, spring rolls, and beef pad Thai. 4 pieces of chicken satay. Taste good when you add the peanut sauce and the light cucumber and red pepper dressing that has a sweet taste to it. The spring rolls was another light order that was more of my wife's choice. Also good when dipping with the same peanut sauce. As for the beef pad Thai, me and my wife agree it's good.. if not, a bit too sweet. Having been to Bangkok, Thailand and having their pad Thai there. I don't think it's usually that sweet so could be to cater to the American taste bud. It was pretty filling and made sure to leave some to take home. Service was fine. Overall, a good meal and a place I would go back again if in the area read more

Poor customer service and horrible food . I got 4 dishes to go and the lady at the counter looked annoyed when I asked for hot sauce. She hands me ONE! Don't let me get started on their plastic utensils. It's so cheap that it bends so it was very difficult to eat. Cry. Don't get their Mongolian beef bc there's hardly any beef in it and the beef smelled. Their Tom yum was not hot and sour. It was just very sweet. I will never go back to this place. read more

This is the best thai I've had in the Central Coast thus far. While that's not entirely saying something, I do believe it's incredibly good. People are nice, and it has a homey vibe. Grateful for the multiple tasty experiences. read more

Food was very tasty & service was very good. The only downfall is I asked for medium spice and got no spice at all. It's very difficult to enjoy Thai food with no chili pepper. read more

I use to eat at Sunset Thai all the time, until I got food poisoning from this restaurant twice. I watched them allow employees children to go in to the kitchen and behind the counters. I observed the children coughing in the presence of food and touching the stack of to go containers. I will never eat at Sunset Thai Restaurant again! read more

I highly recommend this small hidden gem of a restaurant. Their atmosphere is not pretentious, their service aIs friendly and attentive to the customer. The food is spectacular. I highly recommend the Pineapple fried rice. Incredible. Finally, the portion sizes are human sized not billed for a single but could easily do for two. read more

Best pad Kee Mao I have had on the central coast. Very fresh and tons of flavor. When I called in for the pick up order they didn't ask about the spice level so I just assumed it would come a bit spicy, being it's Spicy Drunken Noodles. When I got home I realize it has no spice, which I was bummed out about at first but like I said, it had tons of flavor so no harm no foul. If you like it spicy, make sure to ask for it hot! read more

Delicious food and very kind service. If you are craving for authentic Thai food, this is the place to go. Highly recommend.

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4.5/5 My family and I went here on a whim during a staycation in Pismo Beach past January. My Chinese parents were very impressed by "wok hei" - a sign of a skilled chef! We ordered pad thai, pad see ew, and my mom got a chicken noodle soup. It's nice that there's something for everyone. read more

This review is for the combo pho, which I was very impressed with. Broth was tasty yet clean, beef slices were tender, meatballs were bouncy in texture and veggies were fresh. I was hoping the tasty dish had more basil and bean sprouts and tripe, but overall, it's exceeded my expectations. Probably my go to place when I crave pho. read more

It's my first time at this Thai restaurant and I will definitely be back again. The food was good, friendly service and great ambiance, I like it that they have a bar. read more

If you're Southeast Asian like me and love pho, this spot is a hidden gem! The Bay can be tough when it comes to finding truly good pho, but this place honestly surprised me--in the best way. The broth is rich and flavorful, and everything tasted so fresh. I was genuinely impressed! Not only is the pho fantastic, but the other dishes are just as good. The Pad Thai was the perfect balance of sweet and savory. We'll definitely be coming back here every time we're in Pismo! Also, the staffs are friendly as well! Great service overall. read more

This is one of the best Thai Restaurants in Pismo Beach. You will not know until you taste the food. Wonderful service and food options to consider. Enjoyed the people, the food over and over. Was consistent every time during our stay. It is next to the wonderful market. Try it. read more

Back in town for a baseball tournament and my wife and I wanted to come back. We arrived approx 7:30pm with a party of 6 no wait at all, staff was pleasant. We were all served water and drinks were ordered. We ordered dinner and it came out pretty quick. We started with a large win ton soup, broth very good and the won tons were flavorful. I ordered the Crispy Duck. It was good but not what I expected. This was pieces of deep fried duck. I was thinking parts of the duck with crispy skin. Either way flavor was good & served with Jasmine Rice. Next time in town we will stop in again. Staff is friendly and service was great. read more

Food was great service was great as well considering the circumstances! Restaurant was nice and clean and well maintained. They were basically the only restaurant open on Christmas Day and boy were they busy! All tables full, and about 15 to go orders being built on the front desk, line out the door and people trying to get it, it was wild. I'll definitely be back but I felt bad for them the whole crew was run ragged and probably made two months revenue in one day. They were courteous and comped me some soup for the wait, which I'm sure wouldn't have happened any other day. My wife loved her pad Thai, she asked for spicy and it was spicy spicy. My pad woon sen was incredibly flavorful and I would argue it's better than my other go two Thai places. The serving size is standard. I comped some pho which was also delicious broth was great and a bunch of veggies. We also ordered the cheese wontons. The sweet n sour was actually flavor town best I've had. Again not my usual spot nor is it closest to me, but I will definitely try to come back employees were awesome calm cool and collected and we're facing a ton of adversity. Hoping the busy night brought them some many new long time customers! read more

This place has the best Thai food in the county. The noodles were fresh and fluffy not old and hard. I ordered the chicken chow mein and pad see ew and was glad I did. It was yummy. The service was great. I definitely will be visiting again. read more

Good enough that I had to write a review When you want really good Thai this is the spot. Fresh spring rolls were on point and the noodle is clearly made by a master. Also most recently tried the spicy flat noodle and chili basil with chk. Honestly the flavor is completely satisfying. Not greasy. The star of the show was the pineapple fried rice. Which also has chk and shrimp. Drop the Mic fantastic. If this place wasn't in a strip mall next to a grocery store it would probably be packed every night if the week. Who knows maybe it is. The inside is nice however Just overall it's not the ambiance for a fancy dinner out if that's what you are looking for. But it's still nice enough and again the food is a can't miss!! Gotta go 5 stars on this place for incredible food. read more

Clean Thai food place to enjoy your evening. I wish the red curry was a little bit more sweeter. The overall taste was good not too spicy hot. It was flavorful, the shrimp tempura was great. It was in a big shopping center with ample parking. read more

Delicious authentic Thai flavors! The Tom yum soup was on point with the perfect amount of spice and flavors. A side of steamed noodles was super pricy at $3 tho! The drunken noodles and pad thai was good as well. Could use a little less sauce, but overall, we enjoyed our meal. Service was attentive, but they didn't disclose that tip was already added to the bill for our larger group. Pay attention to that since the credit card slip automatically asks for more tip. read more

Good Thai restaurant...third date and she was buying, okay where we going? Sunset was appropriate because the last two dates were finished by a walk on the beach at sunset. this is a hopping place been here about 7 years, survived covid with a strong take out business. I'm glade to hear something positive with a small restaurant in town after that cluster. She started us off with a chilled bean sprouts salad. Then came the green curry dish with tofu, I stayed with my thai go to pad thai with chicken It was all very good, fresh and tasteful. I would have preferred some chicken but I know cutting back on the expensive part of the entree with out raising the prices is how one survives these days. It is a very difficult balance for restaurants especially with labor costs going through the roof. So enjoy keeping my mouth shut, well kinda, support your local businesses Pay with cash and tip well. foodguy-martin read more

We haven't had Thai food in a while and it sounded really good. It was our last meal before heading back to Fresno. We were greeted when we first walked in and told we can sit anywhere we wanted. There was only one other family that was dining in. They were really busy with their to-go orders though. A lady came out and greeted us and asked what we wanted to drink also asked if we were ready to order. Since we haven't ever been here, it took us a few minutes before we knew what we wanted to try. Around 2 minutes later the lady comes back and asked if we were ready now. Feeling a little rushed, I ordered Pad Thai with veggies, my daughter ordered tofu pho and my husband order Pad Saw Eaw with shrimp and Thai tea on the side. Our food came out quickly and it was nice and extra hot. The flavor was really good too. Serving size were pretty big. I ended up taking a couple bites of my Pad Thai so I can save for later and split the pho with my daughter. Since pho isn't good as left overs. The broth had a really good flavor and wasn't watered down either. We had to ask for refills and napkins and the lady asked if we needed anything else, felt like we were bothering her a bit. We weren't checked on either.... We had to ask for a to go box and for our check. Maybe that's why they had more to go orders than dine in. We would probably do the same the next time. Overall, everything was good but the service. read more

It's time to update my review, as I've ordered takeout several times over the past several months and have been consistently disappointed. Today I've decided it's time to try somewhere else. The food has a decidedly frozen and thawed out quality to it. The texture of the squash and the carrots is waterlogged softness that happens when thawed food is reheated. I found myself wondering how long my meal had been frozen. Thai isn't too hard to make fresh, amiright? The second complaint comes from the crab wontons. The filling inside of them has shrunk to the size of my thumbnail, which melts away almost completely when immersed in the fryer. The result is an empty coin purse with almost no flavor. What started out as impressive for me has gone downhill over the past several months. Time to try other Thai in the area. read more

Delicious food and service. My first experience was seated inside. I love the colorful shaped light fixtures over the table. The bar is also unique with an actual tire inside as if the counter was taken from a food truck. The waiter was very nice and brought me a glass of ice water while I looked over the menu. I ordered the Pho with beef and it was delicious. A plate of bean sprouts, slices of jalapeños, and sprigs of basil accompanied the large bowl of broth, rice noodles and beef. I would order it again on a cold or rainy day/night. The second time I ordered take-out of their BBQ short-ribs. The plate included steamed sliced carrots, broccoli, and rice. I substituted the white rice for brown rice. The BBQ sauce is delicious! The beef was plentiful and made for a great dinner. Definitely ordering it again. This is my new go-to place next to California Fresh market. Try it for yourself. read more

Small suits local favorite restaurant. Owner run, needs more staff, aren't able to keep up with demand. We wanted to request siracha for the spicy noodle that wasn't spicy, and tried many times to wave waiter and owner down , and they only motioned, be right there, and never arrived. Finally had to ask, non-wait staff person, and they brought us soon. But they did give great attention when time to pay check, go figure! Prices are on high side, not much bang for the buck! Food was not impressive, not sure what the hype is....... read more

Truly delicious, authentic Thai food with outstanding service in a highly convenient location. We can't recommend this place enough. Yum!

Came in a little before 8pm on a Sunday. Had a long day and finally had a chance to get some food. You always worry about how you will be greeted late on a Sunday, but the customer service was awesome. Very friendly, very attentive. After a long day our group of three went through many glasses of water and they were very quick to refill. All the food was very fresh. The fresh rolls, the satay, even the peanut sauce was very tasty and definitely fresh. Pho was good, maybe a little sweet for my tastes but my son loved it. Beef salad was good, too, and the veg in it was crisp and delicious. Clean, welcoming, and tasty! read more
