Pad Thai is tasty. The BECK is a must order: crispy chicken. Calamari can be crispier, won't order again. Chicken wings are to die for. Service was quick. During lunch peak hours it can be slow. Nice expansion on the other side of the room. Bright and roomy. Will come again.

This Thai restaurant is located in the heart of downtown. There were plenty of parking. We decided to order take out. We ordered two orders of their popular Time Thai Fried Chicken, Pad Thai With Chicken, and the Pineapple Fried Rice With Pork. Our order was ready in about 20 minutes. The Time Thai Fried Chicken were crispy on the outside and tender in the inside. It came with sweet chili sauce. We didn't really use the sauce because the fried chicken itself was flavorful enough. However, it would have been nice if they trimmed off some of the chicken fat. The sauce for the Pad Thai was kind of sweet and had a little tang to it. The Pineapple Fried Rice With Pork was very flavorful and tasty.

Everything was delicious. The deep fried dishes had the right amount of crispiness. The curry crab bomb was definitely the bomb. Servers were friendly and attentive. The space is bright and cozy. I highly recommend the place.

Pad Thai Fried Chicken
Ayush N.

The positives: We ordered the Green Curry with chicken, and the Pad Thai Fried Chicken. The pad Thai tasted fantastic and the chicken was incredibly crispy while being very tender. I loved the pad Thai fried chicken. For the green curry, most of the green curry tasted great with that savory and spicy balance that green curry normally has. The negatives: the potatoes in the green curry didn't seem cooked entirely. The two dishes were delivered to the table at totally different times. It made it so that my friend finished his food and then after he finished I began eating my pad thai. Because of these two doubles negatives I am lowering the rating by 2 stars. Would I try this place again? Yes, but I would specifically seek out a time when the place has lower traffic than Saturday evenings. I will say the place was quite lively. It didn't live up to my expectations entirely on the food, one shouldn't only make their flagship entrees in a stellar manner, but all the dishes should be stellar tasting. I forgot to take a photo of the green curry.

Time Thai Kitchen opened years ago where Legacy Thai Cuisine was. Infrastructure changed. New outside seating. New 2d room decorized. Main room has sparse seating, a flatscreen. No street parking. Small parking in rear. Watch for areas for permitted parking. Against the fence is a no no. Soft vocal music in background. Seated promptly when they opened. Ordered asap. Food came out in 18 minutes. deep fryer probably needed to be heated up. Offerings (Thai fusion): appetizers, drinks, specials, noodles, noodle soups, salads... Bites: Som Tum Set(19): fried chicken, sticky rice, salad, papaya salad. -sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf. nice taste. Ate a little. Forget to take it to go. Not a fan of rice. -papaya salad: shredded ripe papaya mixed with tomato bits, crushed peanuts, leeks, green beans. Fresh and crunchy. Lime juice added tartness. Garlic half cloves adds another layer of flava. 7 Fried chicken boneless pieces obviously marinated with herb & spices. Skin on thigh meat was consistently moist, tender, juicy. Had bone in versions elsewhere. Not so juicy-harder to control heat. The fried chicken here is a WINNER. A small serving of mixed greens with peanut dressing was amazing. 4.5 stars Worthy: YMMV. Quantity: reasonable, the "SET" allows one to taste many entrees. Quality: very good.

PAD THAI FRIED CHICKEN
Jeff W.

Pretty solid place. 3.5 stars so I'll round up to 4 stars. Pad Thai Fried Chicken was a nice combination. The pad Thai had solid flavors and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I enjoyed the sauce for the chicken - not too light, not too heavy, and just the right sweetness. The beer was so so. We also ordered regular pad Thai with pork and a pad see ew with chicken. In both of these dishes, the meats were over cooked and dry. Flavors were good though. Will come back but maybe order different items.

CRAB CURRY BOMB
Aletta A.

Love. Ordered door dash delivery for the first time from here. The meals sounded so yum and interesting. I tried the crab curry bomb but ordered without the celery because i'm not a fan of celery on hot food. It was really good with nice crab flavor and the fried soft shell crab was a nice contrast texture to the egg and rice. And of course mango sticky rice is always a must when you get thai. that was also delicious.

We needed lunch and we had the dog with us. So, either someplace that had outdoor seating that allowed dogs or else food to go, and we'd have to find a park. We found Time Thai on yelp, and it looked promising. We arrived toward the end of lunch and managed to snag a parking spot at the side of the restaurant across from the railroad tracks. There's outdoor seating on either side of the front door. One side was closed either for remodeling or because the sign was convenient. We went straight to the outdoor seating. There was a two-top and a four-top. We took the two top to ensure we had enough room for our food. Neither of us got a look inside the restaurant as a server came out, asked us how many and handed up menus. Ice water and set-ups were brought out. We had brought a bowl with us and poured in some ice water for the dog. I'm a huge fan of Roti with Yellow Curry. The reviews say nice things about the Fried Chicken so we knew we had to try that. Lastly, I wanted something with curry and veg. Roti w/ House Curry Sauce - 5 - Seemed like a smaller portion than we're used to, but the flavors and textures were spot on. There is nothing I would change about this dish, but I do wish I had thought to ask if they could make it with an egg turning it into Roti Telur. Coco Prawn w/ Brown Rice - 5 - All the flavors were excellent. The brown rice was the perfect accompaniment to the curry sauce. I ate all the rice served at the restaurant, but we also had brown rice already cooked at home and the leftovers went well with it. The prawns were nicely cleaned and cooked perfectly. Khao Yum Gai Zapp - 5 - had knock your socks off flavor! The only thing I may have changed was ordering Brown Rice instead of the rice that came with it. The food came out fairly quickly. Our server came and checked on us several times, making sure that we had enough water. This restaurant definitely earned a return visit. Maybe next time without the dog so we can see what the restaurant looks like inside.

Side of White Rice

I've been here quite a few times, and their flavors are always consistent and fresh. Even when I grab my order to go, it tastes just as good as if I had dined in. I always get the cashew chicken with white rice. Every. Single. Time. Honestly, I feel like I'd be cheating on my favorite meal if I ever tried something new because it's just that amazing. On this most recent visit, my husband came with me and ordered the Pad Thai with fried chicken, and we also shared the Thai chicken. I noticed they've expanded the restaurant, and it's now larger to accommodate more guests. Less waiting, more eating! They've also added their own restrooms for guests, which was very clean and a great addition to the new space. We also got a mango sticky rice to go and shared it with my son. The flavor and texture were so good that I now crave it whenever I want a sweet treat.

Pad See-Ew
Eva C.

3.5 rounded to 4. First time here! Heard this place is popular so decided to stop by since we were in the area. They have a small parking lot in the back, which could fill up fast. The service was decent and we got our food in the a timely manner. I got the pad see ew and I thought the flavor was good but it could use some more eggs in it. The b.e.c.k. chicken sauce kinda tastes like costco teriyaki sauce. I tried my friend's pad thai and I didn't like it too much since I thought the flavor was too tomato-y. The khao soi was delicious and the sauce was flavorful and rich and would pair really well with rice as well!

Pad Thai Fried Chicken
Mari M.

First came to this spot 2 years ago. Returned for our anniversary dinner, and the food was just as good. Lots of renovations as they have expanded--which is very much appreciated. The service was excellent, and everyone was so nice. The decor and design of the restaurant is much more cohesive than it was 2 years ago. We ordered different dishes this time around, and we walked away just as satisfied. Can't wait to make this an annual tradition.

Overall? Pretty good, not life changing, but solid. Fast service, decent quality curry, and a chill, no fuss vibe. It's a small spot tucked into a corner. There's an outdoor seating area that might be operational, but I ate inside. It was a small space, but clean and comfortable. I was seated right away and had food in front of me pretty quick. No complaints there Parking? Lot I had : Pumpkin curry (4/5): The coconut milk and red curry paste made a well balanced, flavorful base, rich but not heavy. The pumpkin added a nice sweetness, with basil and bell pepper bringing a fresh pop that rounded everything out. Heat level was spot on, present, but not overwhelming. Texture was smooth and cozy, and the aromatics were clean and inviting. A touch of lime leaf or galangal would've kicked it up a notch. Portion was on the smaller side (understandable with Bay Area economic crunch) and rice options were limited, which felt like a miss. Would return but not actively seek out

Pad Thai Fried Chicken
Nancy H.

Came as a party of 2 on a Sunday at 1 PM and the restaurant was packed, which is great for business! We ordered the Pla Tod and Pad Thai Fried Chicken. The fried food was piping hot which is always deeply appreciated! The pad thai itself was average. Service was just okay. We also ordered the Thai Tea Coffee, which was sweet to the point it made my stomach hurt. This is a good option if you're in the area and craving Thai cuisine with fried food, but I would not make the drive just to eat here.

The texture of the noodles was bouncy and perfectly cooked and the veggies were fresh and neatly sliced. This dish has impressive qualities and the flavors were well balanced. The hot chili wontons had a nice kick to them and not too spicy. The potstickers are a good vegetarian option and the tofu, mushroom and basil worked well together and that butterfly made out of carrots was gorgeous. I hear the chef makes them by hand. Thank you to the server for helping us with our order and being so kind. Our dinner was superb. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.

Consider this place to almost be a "make your own ramen" type of thing, in that you're given a platter of toppings to add to your bowl of steaming hot broth, mix it and let it sit, then voila! It's ready to eat. For a rainy winter evening, it was perfect to have some tasty noodle soup!

The portions were pretty generous. -grapefruit tea: thought it was pretty yummy! I also tried out the super fruit tea and i really liked it but personally found it to be a little too sweet. Not too much to displease though! I mixed some water and it was perfect for me. -tomato beef brisket noodle soup: i was surprised by how tender the meat was and how much they actually give you. If you love tomato soups as much as i do then it's definitely a great option! -takoyaki & lamb skewers: my sister had one dish from her combo order and i has my own but was able to try both! The lamb skewers were a bit smaller than expected but were flavorful with a fragrant aroma. The takoyaki came in about 5 balls and while they didn't include all typical takoyaki toppings it was still pretty good considering it came as a combo! Overall, i really loved coming by this place, my main concern is that it's actually in a pretty busy plaza so parking can be a little difficult during peak business hours. Otherwise it's located in a really great area relatively close to some shopping areas such as the Livermore outlets or even other smaller shopping plazas. Give this place a try if you're in the area and looking for a good eat without breaking the wallet!
