Another fantastic Thai place in Lake Forest - I ordered the pad see ew, yellow curry, and mango sticky rice. It was all well prepared and hit all the right flavor notes. Great for takeout orders. Very kind lady at the front desk. Place is a little dark inside, but that's just for setting the mood

Order the Crying Tiger and you won't regret it! I usually don't order this when eating out for Thai but here it's absolutely delicious. But based on trying their other dishes such as Spicy Basil noodles or Pad See Ew, I would pass on everything else. I've come here for lunch and always ordered the Crying Tiger. But when I ordered their dinner portion of the same dish, I was disappointed. Not because of the quality or taste, which has been consistently good, but because the portion size is the same as what you get during lunch but you pay $6 more. That's not cool. So my advice: come here and get their Crying Tiger but only during lunch to save yourself $6. It's worth the visit.

I've never ever had a bad meal here!!! This is the most predictable guaranteed great meal! The crying tiger, sweet and sour, green, red and pineapple are all fabulous. Their fried rice, pad see yew ...:I can go on and on. Plenty of parking, pleasant service, family owned and comfortable vibe inside. Been going here 20 years + and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. It is my go to Thai spot. Crying Tiger here is second to none. Service is always fast and efficient. I love their lunch special but it gets pretty crowded here at lunch. Busy spot but always clean and well kept. Great food, i love the Tom yum, pad kee mow or pad see ew, all cuties are good. Just my favorite spot I've never thought about leaving a review or getting pictures but I hate to gate keep. Pictures to follow!

Another great spot on the LF gift card spot! My wife has been coming here for a while since it's close to her work and agreed, it's worth eating. Some of our favorites are the curries, pad see ewe, and soups. Crying tiger wasn't bad too but there's another Thai place we like it more from. They have a nice lunch special as well. They don't open for dinner until 5pm but usually they start taking phone orders around 4:45pm.

We came in for lunch on a weekday and it was not too busy, but a decent number of customers. There's quite a good number of options on lunch menu, which include soup, salad and rice. The soup especially stood out, it was delicious broth and included rice noodles, a nice bonus to an already decent lunch set. Salad and rice come on the plate with your selected entree, we choose the pad thai and spicy eggplant. The pad thai had a unique flavor, not bad, but not our favorite either. The taste was different from other Thai places, tasted more sour. We ordered it with tofu, and we weren't used to having a spiced marinated tofu in there, so would have preferred a more standard tofu, but the issue I found with this dish was that some of the tofu was not hot, some pieces even tasted a little cold inside so for that fact alone, it made the dish hard to appreciate, and I had to take a star off for that. The eggplant was fine, a little on the oily side, quite a large portion of onions and peppers - would have have appreciate more eggplant or other vegetables, but it was okay. The salad was also good. Service and prices were also fine, not one of the cheaper Thai lunches in the area, but it's not the most expensive either. Since there's still lots to try on the menu, we'll probably come back someday and see if there's something else we can try.

Really cute little place with lots of seating and good service, our server Kaylin was very nice and attentive even though the restaurant was busyFood was really yummy and with relatively decent portion sizing, my favorite dish was the beef lime salad! The beef was really tender, also I was told people ask for extra of the sauce and for good reason, I just wished it had a spicy kick to it but definitely would order again! Thai sweet and sour was also really good, loved all the veggies that were in the dishYellow curry was really well balanced in flavor, pad thai was the only one that personally could have been better for me. Kind of was a expecting a little smokier of a flavor? And it was a little too much on the sweet end more my taste, probably could have used a lime on the side. But I did like that the bean sprouts were cooked in instead of raw on the side like most places do

You know the food is amazing when I couldn't take a pic before I started eating both the appetizer and the meal. Yes, the eggroll serving is 5 instead of 3 - I couldn't help myself.Spice Thai is as incredible as ever. It's consistently a 5 star for me!

The portion, service, ambiance were good. Everything was super quick.The food was okay. I had Spicy Basil with Tofu Lunch. It was too greasy for my taste and the tofu was gooey and didn't taste good. The soup was okay, too.
