Reviews for Lanna Thai Cuisine in San Diego, CA

We were visiting San Diego from the Palm Springs area. There were 2 families in our group. We had to wait for 10-15 min before... we could be seated together. We considered leaving, so thankful we didn?t leave. Food was So Worth The Wait!! Waitress was onit. Food and drinks came out in a timely manner. The timing between appetizers and main course was perfect. They never tried torush us. We all had something different, and everyone was totally satisfied w taste and portion. We had the house appetizersampler, that set the standard for the tastes we were about to experience. I?m writing this review 24hours after we had dinnerand I so want to go back and have it again. Do yourself a favor and if necessary, wait a few min and delight yourself w amazingflavors and top notch service. Read more

I have tried two appetizers and two entrées. I?ll start with the Tom Yum. The broth had excellent taste and delicious flavor.... It was well balanced between spice and sweetness. I also tried the Sa-Tay. The chicken was well seasoned and had delicioustexture. Combined with the cucumber dip and peanut sauce, it was a well executed combinational dish. Next, I tasted theentrées. The Thai Basil Wok had excellent taste and good flavor. The chicken was slightly over cooked, but the marinate made upfor it. Finally, I tried the Power Fried Rice. I asked for 7 out of 10 level spice, but tasted more like 4 out of 10. The dishwas also over sweet. It tasted like it was cooked in maple syrup. Despite that, the chicken had terrific texture and greattaste. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Sa-tay. For it?s delicious, juicy, and well seasoned chicken. Read more

I give it 4-star just because I have a special feeling of Thai food and Thai people. Look at the picture, will you buy such a... small box with so many broken noodles for $16.16? I did. That night, Lara was tirelessly preparing her final the next day andeven didn't have time to go out for a dinner. We had some leftovers from the lunch but not enough, I decided to buy sometakeaway and googled this Thai restaurant. It's only 0.4 mile away, I walked there after ordering through the phone. Therestaurant is in the middle of a bunch of car dealers, with a bright yellow lightbox outside labeled the logo. The restaurantlooks ethnic, authentic, and decent. It has a big sculpture of two Thai welcoming at the gate, has four wooden buddha's hands onthe wall, a wooden time of wheel on another wall, and a wooden sculpture of a group of gods and goddesses on the other wall. The entire dining room looks very Thai and fashion style. I got my food and walked back, besides the lunchbox, it's only onepair of chopsticks in the bag. Even no tissues at all. I ordered the Pad Kee Mao, which was a stir-fried flat rice noodle dish.I have to say the taste was good, but not surprisingly good. It's too spicy as a 5/10 spicy level. The portion was too small,and too many broken noodles. The squid was too soft without texture. The renovation for the dining room is worth 5-star and thefood can only get 3. Read more

This restaurant is in a nice area with parking in a lot or on street not very far away. The staff here are so kind and... accommodating. I'm a particular eater, I wanted veggies, egg, rice noodles (See-Ew) but with the Kee-Mao (spicy chili sauce*drunken) instead of the sweet soy sauce. The waitress was completely cool with this request, no concern, confusion or contempt.My dinner was AMAZING, just the way I wanted it. Thank you Lanna Thai for a great dinner. Read more

Very impressed! This little gem is across the street from my hotel. The spring rolls were crunch and full of flavor. The chicken... Pad Thai was ?off the chain? delicious! Service was friendly and quick. Highly recommend. Read more
