Siam Rice II — Restaurant in Santa Clarita

This used to be my favorite place for Thai food for the last 20 years. It was always so good and authentic. And the prices were actually affordable. But, in the last few years this place has gone downhill. My most recent visit with my family I would spend under $100 for food here and I order a lot. My most recent visit for the same amount of food I paid over $200. And I understand inflation and everything costs more but the food quality and taste is terrible now. They used to have this really thick delicious panang curry that was insanely good. It tastes terrible now. I'm not sure if they got new cooks or what it is but all the food not tasty anymore. Unfortunately I will not be back anymore. And this was a tough one for me. Especially since I've known the owner Chi and he was always so nice. And also the other owner who's named we lovingly used to call Mama, but she's doing sushi down in...

The price point on what was popping up online and inside the restaurant are about a two to three dollar difference. Not sure why that was, but may be a different case for other people. We stopped by to try out a Thai restaurant that we've never tried in town before and picked up our go-to noodle dishes for dinner. We got pad thai, pad sea ewe, and 2 basil noodles. Pros were the fact this was probably the only place in town where everything was well seasoned and portions are pretty huge. Cons would be the meats were all overcooked and very chewy. The dishes with wide noodles needed to soak or cook longer, they were really chewy and in some cases, still hard. It would have been nice to get a bit more noodles and sad to say, a little less protein, but again that was probably cause the proteins were a bit of a struggle. We'll try to see if it's a different experience...

I just ordered delivery last night and had to wait an hour and a half. While I was on the phone, the lady kept talking to someone else in the kitchen while I was trying to order. She'd come back and say, "oh sorry, yes" and then start yelling again at someone. She told me Id have to wait an hour to an hour and a half, but I accepted it. This wouldn't have been a big deal if the food wasn't crappy. I ordered combination pad Thai and it tasted like it was made earlier in the day and just microwaved. The beef was terrible and there was barely any chicken. OH ya and I ordered 3 eggs (which the charged me for) and there was no sign of egg in the pad thai at all. Then the chicken saute..... BURNT and flavorless. The only thing I enjoyed was the...
