“ The food is delicious and service is quick. I tried the pad see ew and papaya salad. Both were the best I've had in SLO! ”

“ I always have a good experience at Papa Thai's and the food is good. I normally order the pad thai or pad se ew but I opted for the Rad Na this time which was a new menu item. I had it growing up and it was really tasty. The owner came by to ask twice to make sure it was to my liking and service is always consistently good. The ambiance is pretty lively since its never too busy but there's always a good amount of people in the restaurant. ”

“ Great Thai restaurant! Friendly owners and staff, amazing vegetarian options, and a nice vibe. Their noodle dishes are my favorite, and the service is always efficient. Best Thai food in SLO! ”

“ Always great food and friendly staff. Plenty of seating. Egg rolls are light and crispy and garlic pepper chicken is tasty and a good sized portion. ”

“ I love papas thai cafe! Conveniently located by my house, i am a frequent customer. Food- the food is consistently good, when i'm sick, i always order the yellow curry with chicken as it warms me up and is so comforting service- service is always good, they do their best to make any/all modifications! food comes out fast ambiance- the ambiance is nice, nothing extraordinary but does it's job ”

“ You pay first and then sit down to order. Their pad Thai was super flavorful. Their pineapple fried rice was good too. Outside seating was so nice ”

“ Our first time here today for lunch, immediately drawn in by the delicious smells wafting out to the patio. Lots of seating including a tall table for 8 which was perfect for our group of 7. A bit stuffy inside but preferable to the heat outside. Staff was helpful and friendly. We ordered -pad see ewe with chicken, -drunken noodles with chicken (my favorite, yummy vegetables, and medium spicy) -red curry (good flavor, comes with a small bowl of white or brown rice) -sautéed green veggies with tofu (asparagus, snow peas, so tasty!) -tom yum soup (the chicken was a bit over cooked and the flavor a bit heavy compared to others I've had but still good) -veggie fried rice (okay, a bit bland but I appreciated the broccoli florets) Overall a super satisfying meal and we would come back if we lived here! ”

“ Weird parking, but it's a spacious indoor ready to go spot! There's plenty of seats to choose from. All you need to do is order at the front, they give you a number, pick your seat, and you are good to go. Just a matter of 10-15 minutes. Some may say it's a little pricey, but I'm telling you, the food is worth every penny. It is family owned and operated by those who know exactly what they're doing - givin' authentic, delicious thai food. Each dish is portioned to perfection, in my opinion, they are generous with the amount of meat/protein in them. Be aware of the spicy selections, because they are spiced very well. Otherwise, all entrees are nicely seasoned. Pad thai - Ordered both with chicken once and fried tofu the next next day (ate here 3 days in a row). Honestly I would of loved more noodles than chicken, but that's how much meat they give you! It's a lot! The flavor isn't too much in the tamarind side, it's different from the many pad thai dishes where they're all very similar, so this was a uniquely great surprise. I definitely like it more with the fried tofu so I can focus more on the noodles. The fried tofu aren't small cut, but I think it's better that way. 10/5 stars (it's that good) Pad See Ew - Seasoned to the point where I thought it was spicy haha. Noodles-vegetables-meat(beef) ratio is definitely on point. 5/5 stars. Khao Soi - Not a lot of thai restaurants have this dish, it goes to show how legit this place is. If you never tried this before/love curry based dishes. This is the perfect place to try this dish. It's my partners number 1 favorite dish for sure. 10/5 stars. Thai tea/thai green tea/thai coffee - It's about the same price as other boba places, but man, they're soo good! I'm very picky to thai teas to the point where I don't order them for myself anymore, but they brew them in house and fresh everyday. They last about a week in the fridge and I know this, because I order a handful to last me a week to go (I'm a visitor to SLO, but I always come here to eat.) 6/5 stars, extra star of how high quality the thai tea base is. They're more dishes we tried, but that's enough reading, GET TO EATING! ”

“ Quality/Quantity - Beef Pad See Ew - My daughter's favorite, except she got beef this time...? Chicken Pad Thai - Okay. Pork Eggplant - My wife's usual. I guess we are all creatures of old habits... Overall all the food was good. And they do not use MSG! Thanks. Atmosphere - Small local business, limited indoor and outdoor seating. Major street construction currently. We had to park a block away and walk around the construction. The construction also closed the major street to through traffic, which must really hurt business. Small shared mall parking, but we chose to NOT deal with the construction and walked. Open 6 days a week from 11am to 9pm, closed Mondays. Clean enough bathrooms, see picture. Service - Counter service, just like the previous business. I like the self-service to-go container area. It saves us so much time if we have left overs. But your portions are not big enough to need to go containers, lol. And we are light eaters. Price - $51 + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2020. ”
