No more driving to SD location. We were really pleased when we found out about this location. We ordered Chiang Mai style with shrimp, and Boran style with chicken. Both were tasty and delicious. We ate them right at that location. We know the place is more for take out, but we didn't want to wait. I have some leftover that enjoyed later at home. The noodles consistency were still good. If you like pad Thai, this place is a must for you.

I’ve been here twice now since they opened and it’s so delicious! I get the southern style with chicken and it’s packed full of flavor - I love the addition of the coconut cream. Definitely go try it if you like pad thai. There’s minimal seating inside but I think it can seat maybe 6 or 8.

Had the tofu pad Thai with southern flavor profile. Asked for medium spiciness and it was indeed a good spicy level. Flavors were good and what I expected. Would recommend for those who enjoy pad Thai.

I used to travel to the San Diego location so I was supper excited to see them opening up in San Marcos. This place remains my favorite pad Thai place by far, they have different flavor options based on different regions of Thailand. The southern flavor is by far my favorite, most flavorful and fresh pad Thai ever!! They also have a pretty nice vegetarian/vegan version if you have dietary restrictions. Not much seating there, so be ready to take out if needed. Highly recommend, please give them a try!!
