Thai Joint - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was REALLY good, and the service was awesome. While parking wasn't great, that's to be expected. I highly recommend this place.

My experience was marked by the exceptional thoughtfulness of the staff. Despite my initial "hard luck, " she generously helped me clean the kitchen, which was already spotless, a truly thoughtful gesture. She also assisted me with several meals. 🫶😊 Hi friends!

As a native San Diego resident with over 30 years of experience trying Thai food, I can confidently say that Thai Joint is a standout. My first visit was for a pickup order of grilled chicken, sticky rice, yellow coconut curry, steamed veggies, and papaya salad. The staff was incredibly friendly, with three people thanking me at once as I left – a truly warm touch. The packaging was also exceptional: neat, secure, and thoughtful, even including cardboard to separate hot and cold items, a detail I haven't seen elsewhere. They also proactively included sauces and cutlery. The food itself was fantastic – fresh, piping hot, and bursting with flavor. I ordered the Thai spice level, and they certainly delivered! I will definitely be returning; this place excels in every aspect from start to finish.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's my favorite Thai spot in San Diego. The vegan options were truly amazing and delicious. I also appreciated the friendly staff and the cozy atmosphere.

It's nice and the food is tasty. It was our first visit so we only tasted a few dishes.

Before I discovered Thai Joint, I had begun to think there wasn’t any good Thai food here. It was sooooo yummy! Some of the best curry I’ve had, and the Thai tea was great too. The staff were very friendly, it wasn’t too expensive, and the portions were generous. I’m definitely coming back.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the pad Thai, which tasted really fresh and authentic. The place was clean, and the overall atmosphere was great. The service and food were both rated a perfect 5, and the noise level was quiet, making it easy to talk.

‼WOULD NOT COME AGAIN. ‼ I came here to eat with my friend and our two daughters after having a hard day. The food was delicious but I definitely will never come back here as long as the woman who served me works there. I have never walked in a restaurant feeling unwelcomed the moment our server began speaking to us. I would never expect a server to make disrespectful comments about my child who is only 2 years of age. The Server oddly told me and my friend to take our children's shoes off so we don't get her place dirty which we felt was a very odd request. We put them in the high chair that was already very dirty and dusty so I was confused. She hovered over picking little things back up as my daughter ate her food and if my daughter would put something down she would come to the table and take it away. Our children were tired, we just wanted a break and no one had an issue with our children but her. We felt rushed out with a check before we even finishing our order. When I walked to the restroom and left the table she went to my friend that I was with & in front of her daughter proceeded to tell her that my child is a bad kid. My feelings were hurt and I felt disrespected. To label a two year old as bad and one as good in front of other people and children while serving is completely inappropriate. Children are sponges, what we say shapes them into who they are, this server was saying this to the person I was sharing my lunch with. As a mother sometimes doing it all alone, I go out to have a break, to feel like I'm part of the world again. I always appreciate servers who stand for making their customers feel welcomed and have patience for all forms of humans and families. Unknowing of possible disabilities or hardships at home if this woman thinks it is okay to make comments like that to her customers I don't think she should be working there. I don't believe this woman represents good customer service, I don't believe that she is meeting up to the common values that most restaurants stand for. I called to complain & Delilah was very kind and apologized. She asked if I wanted a refund and an apology and I said sure. The woman who served me got back on the phone and mocked me giving me a very disrespectful and backhanded apology with a very rude tone. I remained calm and just said I did not want to argue. She put Delilah back in the phone and she said she actually can't refund me until the owner came and they will give me a call tomorrow. I still haven't gotten a call back. I'm not angry about the money; but I am concerned about anyone with children eating at a place like this. I will take further steps until I get a call from someone who is in charge. This place is far from kid friendly and I would never recommend anyone who has a child to eat here. If you have a child with special abilities, toddlers, infant that cry, I would not feel comfortable being served by this woman. I support businesses that are all inclusive and this is not one of them.

My experience at Thai Joint on Adams was absolutely amazing! From the moment I stepped in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for an exceptional dining experience. The staff provided top-notch service—friendly, attentive, and always ready to offer recommendations. It was clear they take pride in making every guest feel special. The food was nothing short of incredible! Each dish burst with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced and beautifully presented. I highly recommend their Pad Thai and Green Curry; both were absolutely delicious and showcased the kitchen’s expertise. The portions were generous, and the ingredients were fresh, making every bite an absolute delight. Thai Joint is a must-visit spot for anyone craving a taste of authentic Thai cuisine!

My experience at this restaurant was quite alarming. I found a tiny twisty tie in my Pad Thai, which I suspect came from the produce. It's insane to find something like that in your food, as it could have caused serious injury. This experience was definitely no bueno. Given this incident, I won't be eating here for the next 20 years, especially since I just bought a house in the area.
