    Variety of items!
    Kent V.

    We ordered a lot of items here last night via door dash for a birthday dinner. Overall, everything was good. We had the pad thai, pad see ew, 2 different types of curries, fried rice, mongolian beef (which we requested spicy and there was no spice), orange chicken, mango sticky rice, and some tofu/egg plant dishes. We also had some fried Wong tongs with beef. These were OK but had hardly any meat in them. The pad see ew with chicken and orange chicken were my favorite. Everything overall was fine, bur I think there are better thai restaurants in the area.

    A Burmese friend recommended this spot for casual Thai food, so my friends and I decided to swing by during lunch break and gave it a try. Thai Pepper offers a Lunch Special from 11AM to 3PM, and each meal is just $10.95 which is a steal for the Huntington Beach area. Each lunch combo includes: * A small pack of crispy wontons (2 pieces) * Salad * Freshly stir-fried rice * Your choice of protein/entrée. You can even customize the spice level from 1 to 10! Since we were not sure how spicy they would be so we went for level 2 and they didn't taste hot at all. We ordered a few different dishes to share: * C1 Pad Thai (Chicken) * C7 Mint Leaves Chicken * C15 BBQ Pork * C17 Spicy Eggplant (Chicken) The owner was super friendly and even came over to ask how we liked the food before we left. For $10.95, the portions were really generous and we all left full and satisfied. There aren't too many tables inside, and it seems like most people order takeout/DoorDash deliveries. Since everything is fresh made to order, expect a bit of a wait. If you're in a rush, I'd recommend calling ahead. Thai Pepper 18023 Beach Blvd, Huntington Beach, CA 92648

    Thai Pepper was on vacation when we went last month.. so I see that they are back for business. The lovely missus convincingly said that we won't have a chance to go if we don't do it today. Yeah, busy with chores and life's things. We parked right outside and see the young man behind the counter. I do miss the elders of days gone by, but I also notice that the menu wall and handout still have our favorite dishes. Golden Fried Tofu and Fried Wontons. Oh yes, please pack to go. Include two D0-1 Pad Thai (with white meat chicken) not spicy, to our order. This Pad Thai comes with fried rice and a side of fresh lettuce greens and a vegetable roll. A lot of great tasting food for our scrumptious feast at home. I added the sweet Thai Ice Tea which I actually had for dessert. We were very glad that Thai Pepper is now back from vacation.

    lunch special w/ pad thai

    ORDER lunch special w/ pad thai the lunch special comes with a side of fried or white rice, salad, and wonton chips... all for under $12! my go to is the pad thai at the level 4 spice level (the scale is from 1-10). the portions are big and the price is unbeatable. the pad thai is flavorful and they do not skimp on the chicken. i usually call to order through the phone before picking up. they do charge a small fee for card payments if your order is under $15. SERVICE since i call before picking up my order, the process is always quick and easy. once i get there, the food is ready and piping hot. AMBIANCE the restaurant is relatively small and only has a few seats inside. id recommend ordering for take out.

    Placed an order via DoorDash. Food was ready upon arrival. All the containers were filled to the brim except for the spicy eggplants. I had no idea the latter was a dinner combo of sort and it came with a salad and spring roll. I thought it was nice surprise! The packaging were well thought out as the spicy eggplants were wrapped in a separate bag in case of leakages. This avoided a big mess because it did leak and saved me a lot of hassle from having to do extra cleanup. The food itself were absolutely delicious. I would have loved to turn on food vacuum mode and eat everything in one sitting. NOTE: I know better -- I just have delicious lunch and dinner leftovers for today instead Looking forward to returning again in the future and trying their other dishes.

    Watery Beef Broccoli. Unbelievably gross.
    Gillian O.

    If it wasn't for the friendly staff, I would absolutely give zero stars based on the food. Absolutely disgusting, I threw everything I ordered away. I had high hopes based off the reviews, but I was left in complete shock that this place is even open. The beef broccoli was drowning in tasteless water with chewy beef. The shrimp was not deveined, chewy and had a weird smell. The rice and pad Thai were so bland, no spice at all, and again, just completely shocking it's being served. The egg rolls, if this is even possible, were completely mushy and wet on the inside. I was scared to take more than I bite and risk getting sick. I really hate writing bad reviews, but when the food was this bad, I have to let others know! Save your money!

Everything was so delicious! We ordered the soup medium spice, the curry spicy and the Pad See Ew extra spicy. Be careful! This is some authentic spice here! We love spicy, especially my husband and he said he may order spicy instead of extra spicy next time. That is the first time he has ever said that. So be warned. Everything was so so good. The only knock was that the bottom of the crab rangood was almost raw. Still 5 stars for quality ingredients and flavor that had me elated to have leftovers for lunch and dinner the next day. Delivery was fast, food was well packaged and piping hot!! and portions were generous. It is now in my favorites and will definitely order from here again. Next time I will get pics but we were starving. Price is a little on the expensive side but soooo worth it!!!

First impressions walking in, the place was very clean, neat, and ambiance was nice. Much more elevated than what I expected for a neighborhood thai restaurant. Menu had some of the traditional favorites, as well as a few with some nice twists - like pad thai with soft shell crab!! And then the food came... we were in love. We scraped everything off the plates. We ordered the special of the pork jerky, so fresh and delicious. The pad see ew was the BEST I had ever had. Very dimensional flavor. Again you could tell it was very fresh. We also ordered the Garlic Pepper Beef, not my favorite, but would order again. We loved it so much, I begged the waiter to open a location in Los Angeles... specifically Porter Ranch, please!! I hope it happens. We love thai food and I can say this was the best I have ever had. I can't wait to return.

    This place is truly a hidden gem. I live about five minutes away and can't believe this was my…read morefirst time coming in. I happened to see it on social media and immediately knew I wanted to try it. From the moment we walked in, the experience was great. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food came out surprisingly fast. We started with the cream cheese wontons and chicken satay. The wontons were perfectly crispy, not oily at all, and the sauce had just the right amount of sweetness without being overly sugary. The chicken satay was honestly the best I've ever had--perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and the sauce paired with it beautifully. For our main dish, we ordered the drunken noodles with crispy pork belly. I got spice level 5, which was perfect for me. The noodles were flavorful and the crispy pork belly had a delicate flavor and great texture. If you're craving Thai food, I would definitely recommend checking this place out. It's a neighborhood spot worth coming back to

Silk Thai…read moreCuisine is tucked away in a plaza in Huntington Beach -- honestly the kind of place I probably would've driven past without a second thought. I'm really glad we didn't. We got there around 5pm on a Saturday and the place was still pretty empty. We were greeted by our server and seated right away, and the whole experience felt relaxed from the start. No rushing, no pressure. Shortly after, the owner Sandy came out to say hello. She was incredibly sweet and you could immediately tell she genuinely loves cooking and making people happy through her food. We told her how we found the restaurant and how excited we were to try it. We started with the Crying Tiger. Our server was actually surprised because she thought it was part of our entrée order and we were like, "Nope... this is just the starter!" The dish arrived beautifully presented on a bed of lettuce with vegetables on the side. The beef was juicy with that perfect char-grilled bitterness, and the dipping sauce complimented it really well. For the entrées, our group decided to each order our own dishes but also share everything -- so of course we ended up trying it all. The crispy pork belly fried rice was fantastic. The fried rice itself was already super flavorful, but the pork belly had an amazing crunch to it. Well seasoned, and when you add the fish sauce with chili? Absolute perfection. Next was the Massaman curry. This one was solid -- nothing overly flashy, but the meat was cooked perfectly and the flavors were comforting and balanced. Then came the crab fried rice, and this one really hit home for me. One of my Thai friend's dads used to cook this for us growing up, even into adulthood, and after he passed away I've been searching for a place that could bring back that same flavor. This was the first dish that truly took me back. It instantly brought back memories of him. That alone made the meal special. We also ordered the Khao Soi. My friend ordered it with chicken, but Sandy came out and insisted that it needed skirt steak -- so of course we added it. Great call, Sandy. The combination worked beautifully. Another standout was the Rainbow Fish with mango, bell peppers, onions, cilantro, and sauce. The fish was perfectly crispy and the sweetness from the mango with the sauce just worked so well together. It was so good I had to order another one to go. And finally, the absolute star of the night: the Panang Filet Mignon (Silk Beef Curry) with roti. I believe it was around a 6/10 on the spice level, but flavor-wise it was a 100/10 must-order dish. This was hands down my favorite. The richness and spice of the curry, the tenderness of the beef, and the flaky roti were just incredible. I even poured some of the curry over rice. Without question the best Panang curry I've ever had. We finished with mango sticky rice for dessert -- pretty standard, but still a nice sweet ending. By the time we finished eating, the restaurant had started to fill up. We definitely got lucky arriving early and basically receiving VIP-level service. On the drive home, my friends and I were still talking about the dishes and the overall experience. Sandy, you're definitely onto something here. Thank you for such a memorable meal. We'll absolutely be back.
