The food is amazing, and they even cater to us who are vegan.The service is the best of the best, they make us feel like we are family everytime we walk in the door.The Ambiance is great, love the lighting and vibe but also it's very clean.Highly recommend this spot if you're a fan of Thai, they will make whatever you like and the way you like it. I love that about them. And if you want to have a party here. You can't go wrong either, I think we are going on 15yrs of birthdays here. It's just the perfect spot for it.

Since before I lived in the area, I was regularly told to go to Sala Thai by my friends & coworkers. Now, my fiancé and I routinely enjoy Sala Thai as a staple of good thai food in the SDSU area. We have dined in a few times, but usually get takeout & the food is always hot when we get home - a must for takeout. Each and every meal at Sala has been standout and delicious! This is definitely a family-style restaurant experience, so expect a laid-back atmosphere and friendly staff. Speaking of... the staff seems to all be family of the owner, and they really do care about your meal and how much you liked it. I eat everything, but my fiancé doesn't. So, it was nice when Kristian (I think was his name) made some recommendations for her and I based off our preferences. They really understand the menu items and flavors that go into each plate - which can be hard to come by these days in the food industry. Last night we had pineapple curry - one of our favorites - and it was so freaking yummy! For being established in 1990, this place has not lost it's flavor or charm - a seriously impressive task for San Diego eateries.

I've been going to Sala Thai since we lived in La Mesa back in the 90's and I still make it a point to visit when I'm down in San Diego. We drove all the way out from Coronado after trying a higher rated Thai place that was horrible The food is hands down the best Thai food I've ever had and I have been to many, many, Thai restaurants. The location is not impressive but I'm there for the food, not expensive ambience Their portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable Some of the complaints are really petty;"My waitress didn't check on me but the owner did"They all help out and bring the food out as soon as it is cooked so don't expect them to wait while you work your way through salad or soup or whatever I have always found the service to be great and just go along with the way the Thai's serveAnyway if you're in the mood for great inexpensive Thai food check them out

Not worth the price.... Came here for lunch with the hubby. Staff was friendly upon arrival. Seated for two the establishment was noted to be clean but the ambiance was a little dark dimmer than my liking sitting at the back of restaurant. Not many people here for lunch: we ordered the lunch special chicken curry which came with a choice of vegetables soup, egg roll of some sort, or salad with peanut dressing. I ordered the salad which was a super tiny plate and salad filled just the center of plate it. Literally could fork the salad with 2 fork full of ice berg lettuce, one half a slice of cucumber, and a slither of a half slice of a Roma tomato and a gob of peanut dressing on it. The chicken, curry and rice came out on a plate. I've never had anyone serve me chicken curry with all of the juices and rice on a plate & left with just a fork.... I ended up asking for a bowl the lady gave me this little bowl below to put it in.... You know the kiddy bowls you get sides in?... welp that the amount of food you get and the rice is most of that.. the chicken was skimpy but taste was ok. The hubby got the pad see eww which he found a hair in but lady was more than friendly to replace it. I personally would have been gagged... and ruined for lunch but my hubby was gracious and let her replace it. The noodles were overcooked both times as well and the taste was too salty for my liking. Honestly won't be back as the price was not worth the food presentation, taste expectations, and quantity.

We had the yellow curry and the pad see eew, which was good but a bit too salty. I also found a long piece of hair in my food! The lady remade my dish, and the noodles were still overcooked and salty. Lunch special size of the food is not worth the price, so if you're coming with a big appetite around lunchtime then I suggest you go somewhere else!

Gluten Free OptionsI got their Pad Thai and thought the dish was lacking in flavor. I mostly tasted the starch of the noodles and my meal consisted mostly noodles with a couple pieces of meat and veggies. Service was great and quick and they don't seem too busy. I may try some of their other dishes since I appreciate their awareness to gluten free offerings.

Love this Thai place! Portion sizes and prices are very good. The drinks and soups though are honestly the best - check out their Tom yum & Tom kha soups. The thai iced coffee and ice teas are both lit - definitely try it. Outside of the pad see ew, the rest were very good. I'd recommend getting the pad Thai and curries!Great service and nice indoor dining!
