Mai Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Pacific Grove

Best Thai in town! I got lucky & was able to try this family owned restaurant on opening day as I was passing by to do laundry next door. A customer leaving Mai Thai had raved about their food from when the family was running their business at local farmers markets. The kind gentleman turned me onto their 'Tom Ka' soup. I'm vegetarian/ almost vegan so I know I didnt specify chicken but that's what they put in the soup so unfortunately I couldnt try it. When I looked back at the receipt they charged me $1 extra for the chicken which was fine because I ended up giving the soup to a family member whom was really impressed with how generous they were with the chicken & commented on the phenomenal taste of the soup. They're combo value meals are AMAZING! Great deal ($) and perfect portions! I ordered the yellow curry (medium spice) with white rice & egg roll. You get a choice of a side salad/egg roll and rice + an iced tea or soft drink. I ordered their unsweetened green iced tea which was delicious! Fell in love with this place fast! Looking forward to when they start offering dairy free alternatives for...

Ordered take out. Prices are pretty good and reasonable but it was the worst pad thai I've ever had. I felt compelled to write this review as I'm trying to swallow my meal but I decided to trash the pad thai instead. Thai fried rice could have had a little more flavoring (soy or salt). Tom Kha soup was thick, not very sour and it's sweet. Doesn't taste very traditional but its pretty good nonetheless. Got a mango lychee bubble tea with dragon fruit pops.

I asked him to please make me a mango black tea instead with lychee syrup. Though I paid and I didn't get my dragonfruits pops in that, I didn't want to make the server remake another drink for me as he seemed slightly reluctant to begin with. My new drink turned out...

I am a local to the area ive never had thai food before, but I must say this restaurant has opened my eyes to the wonderful world of tastes and flavors that im accustomed to. It has made my tastebuds do complete 360s with the exquisite cuisine they offer. They have a variety of dishes to choose from. I do have to say my kids are picky eaters and they too enjoyed trying new food items. Their favorite so far is the Pad Thai and Chicken Teriyaki rice bowls. I must recommend the boba drinks with boba and also the thai coffee, thai iced tea, and pink nom yen milk drinks. All around this restaurant gets my 5 star review all the way. Cleanliness is also over the top in the restaurant. Staff is friendly and very informative on menu items. If your looking to try something new and delicious, or are a regular to this establishment, guaranteed you wont be disappointed. Thumbs up if you agree...
