Thai Bite Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Laguna Niguel

Just do not go here. My girlfriend has been going to this place for years and introduced it to me and I have been going for almost 2 years. Everything has gone down hill. The chicken is always dry, everything is always overcooked, and the only thing that is good is their pad Thai. Not to mention that the manager sucks. My girlfriend and I frequent here because she has celiac disease (an autoimmune gluten allergy). We have never had a problem, but last time we went, they put tofu in her food after I explained to them what celiac disease was and that tofu has gluten. The server acknowledged this and assured me everything would be gf. I pick up the food and there is tofu in my girlfriend’s meal. This could have made her sick for weeks where she would be throwing up everyday. People with a more severe version of celiac disease could have died if they ate this. I called to inform the manager about this. I explained how the server told me it would be gf, that this mistake could have killed someone, and how someone could sue the establishment if they did this again. I was nice and understanding about the whole situation. I have family who owns a restaurant, so I get how hard the industry is. However, Instead of saying sorry, he got defensive and went on a rant about how no one would be able to sue him and how it was no one in the restaurants fault. To add onto this, the manager took zero responsibility for almost poisoning my girlfriend and was immature enough to block my number. This was just the most recent bad occurrence me and her family have had here. When you go inside to dine in, it takes 20 minutes just for a server to come bring you water and take your order. They never write anything down and half the time get our orders wrong. That would not matter though, because after the food is on the table, they ignore you and won’t come back until they see a card on the table to pay. When you do ask for any assistance, the servers roll their eyes at you and give you attitude. There are nice servers who work here, but most of them are not great. Overall, this place does not care about allergies, does not care about their customers, and their manager is awful. We will never eat here again. We will have to find a new...

It simply doesn't get any better than Thai Bite for Asian food. Incredibly made, and never over-salted, plus you have control over how spicy you want spicy dishes. This isn't just another Thai restaurant, its Thai and Asian food taken to a whole new level of taste and experience. Its hard to explain, I don't know if its the recipes or just how its cooked but they are worlds beyond typical Asian Thai restaurants.

If you are new to this type of food and don't want anything "weird" try these recommendations... for a hearty meat dish (steak) get Crying Tiger. It is simply amazing. I guarantee any meat-fan even a non-Asian food person will like this dish. You can request teriyaki sauce if you aren't into the lemon pepper sauce that comes on the side. For chicken eaters, try the Seasoned Garden or Garlic Fever (also goes well with beef). Their Pineapple Rice or Thai Basil rice is also amazing, the best I've ever had. For an appetizer try the pot stickers or the Thai Chips.

I've eaten at many Asian places across the country and this is my favorite. Both locations rock. Not super high end ambience or atmosephere, but nice enough to take a date. Be prepared to wait 30 minutes on carry-out orders if they are really busy. And worth...

I’ve been coming here for a while, but after today, it will be my last visit. One of the servers, a bit of a taller guy compared to the other server, was very rude. When he brought my food, I asked if I could have the different hot sauces, and he said okay. I waited patiently for 20 minutes and was almost done eating when I decided to ask again, thinking he might have forgotten because it was so busy.

I politely reminded him, and instead of a simple acknowledgment, he snapped, “I heard you the first time,” and handed me the sauces with an attitude. I hate confrontation, so I didn’t say anything, but it made me uncomfortable, and I wanted to leave as soon as possible.

At that point, I decided not to tip. It’s not something I usually do, but I don’t feel comfortable giving more of my money when the service is poor. This experience left a bad impression, and unfortunately, I won’t...
