I ordered the bamboo shoots with tofu and pad see ew with tofu for take out.Bamboo shoots: It looked like it was going to be spicy but it wasn't actually that spicy, and was mostly more acidic and sour in flavor. I thought it was decent.Pad see ew: It was savory and yummy. Nothing particularly unique but I enjoyed it. Not as heavy on the soy sauce as some places make it.

Sala Thai is a go to for my family for Thai food, I haven't dined in a while but finally got the chance to recently. We ordered a few things for family style: the string beans, pad thai, crispy chicken, and basil fried rice. My favorite dish was the crispy chicken, don't miss this one!! The rest of the dishes were good but not necessarily out of the world. Service and ambiance was very family friendly.

Classic Thai food. Great ambiance. Cute small with fast and friendly service. Can seat small and big groups. On popular nights there is a 30-45 min wait for big groups like fridays and saturdays duhh. Pad Thai and chicken satay were my fav! I only wish they offered the spring roll with peanut sauce appetizer, but everything has been good! Great beer too! Parking right outside. Safe area.

I love Sala Thai and think it's one of the best Thai restaurants in the area. Have been here over the years, but most recently had dinner this week and it did not disappoint, as usual.Our favorite dish is the crispy fish - it comes out SO hot and crispy on the outside, but so soft on the inside, and the sauce that it comes with that you pour over the fish is the perfect sweet pairing. This time we also got the drunken noodles, larb salad with ground chicken, roti, a fried rice and the panang curry with two extra orders of white rice. Everything was super delicious and worth ordering.I will say that portion sizes may have gotten a little smaller (was most noticeable with the drunken noodles) since pre-COVID, but I guess that's normal for every restaurant nowadays. The four of us still left really full and satisfied!Service was quick though we came on a weeknight so it wasn't too busy. Plenty of parking in the lot around the restaurant as well as large seating areas, with two individual bathrooms in the corner.

3.5 rounded to 4. I've never been to this sala Thai as I would usually frequent #2, since that location has closed I decided to come try this one! Arrived for lunch on a Thursday and the restaurant was packed although no wait for 4 people. The service was truly excellent, they took our order quickly and the food came out very quickly, we were in and out within 45 minutes. The food itself was good. The restaurant is perfect for a quick lunch where you know exactly what you will be getting, it's nothing incredible, but it's simply, homey, good quality ingredients. The portions may be a little small, however the flavors are well developed. It's a good average restaurant that remains consistent wherever you go. However, if you are expecting incredible Thai food, this is not where you will find it. It's simply good and reliable and exactly what you would expect from a local Thai restaurant. It certainly satisfied the craving and I appreciated the quick service, I would have hoped the food would taste a little better with more nuanced flavors, however I can respect that's not what sala Thai is trying to do and for a popular local neighborhood restaurant, it was a great meal! I'd recommend telling them to make things spicy as everything came out extremely mild. We got the string beans, drunken noodles, and green curry. Everything was good, nothing was excellent. Noodles were a tad bit overcooked and curry lacked depth of flavor. Green beans were good but not notable, yet I'd probably still order them again.

The Taste We had our go-tos for fast birthday food, chicken pad thai, red curry with beef, and crispy garlic fish.All the food was good, as expected and consistent. I only wish they had a lime or lemon with the pad Thai for some acid.Service We had utensils upon request. Ambiance The service was fast for pick-up, with virtually no wait. There were quite a few other to-go orders and people inside eating, so it was as popular as usual. Verdict I still recommend this as the best Thai restaurant around, our family favorite.

This place doesn't need a rave review, but they've earned it. A true institution in Fremont, and now with three locations. This is the original, but was located in a lot that got bulldozed over and made into apartment complexes. It was a lot more cramped so this location has been a vast improvement. It's also nice that it's right off one of the roads closed off for the annual Arts & Wine Festival!This is also one of the few places where, if you can't get a table (and that does happen), the food is just as good if you take it to go and eat at home. Everything is delicious and there's something for every palette from adventurous to safe.

We love Sala Thai! Everything is very flavorful and give good portions too. We always order the fried fish with garlic sauce. This time we ordered crab fried rice, green curry, pad Thai, and grilled pork. Everything came out hot and pretty quick too. There was no wait for us around lunch time on a weekend. The crowd was normal where most of the tables were filled up. This place is our go to Thai restaurant when we are craving Thai food.

I have been to this location a few times! It's my goto Thai spot in Fremont and great for casual lunches/dinners. My favorite dish has to be the crispy fish! As someone who doesn't usually order fish, this is insanely delicious and I get it every single time. The outside is crispy, the inside is so flaky soft and melts in your mouth. The sauce pairing is also absolute perfection! The curries and noodle dishes here are also amazing, so really can't go wrong with your order. I highly recommend doing family style so you can try a little bit of everything. Parking is super easy as this is located in a complex. I'd say getting a seat can be tough during busy times.

My bestie lives in Fremont so we decided to have Sala Thai for dinner tonight since her family eats here quite often. I'm usually really skeptical of trying new thai places because nothing compares to my favorite spot, Krung Thai. It was actually pretty busy here on a Wednesday night. Service was okay, waiters seemed to be rushing us through our time here. We ordered hot tea but they ended up bringing thai tea which we should've just kept because the hot tea was dark and gross. However, service was actually really fast. Our food started coming out with 5-10 minutes which was great. We ordered the crispy fish with garlic sauce, spicy papaya salad, pad thai, and pineapple fried rice. The garlic sauce paired so well with crispy fish. It was honestly the highlight of this whole experience and is a must have when coming here. The pineapple fried rice was also very delicious and was filled with flavor. The pad thai and papaya salad could've been better but still good. Our total came out to be about $85 which is not bad for all that we ordered.Sala Thai is a great choice if you're in Fremont but is probably not my favorite Thai spot. I definitely would have enjoyed it more if our experience hadn't felt rushed and if the service was better. Overall, I'd probably come back just for the crispy fish.
