Spice tdai Cuisine in Lake Forest

Great Thai spicy delicacies.

Family owned Thai restaurant. Great food, great service at reasonable prices

Great food at reasonable prices. Be sure to get the crying tiger.

I was there with my collegues, the food was tasty but took a bit time to get ready.I am even ok to wait a bit to get freshly cooked food. Just tried one type of dishes , do not sure of other but nobody complained about that , do hopefilly it would good

Great and delicious food, I like the vibes this spot has, and the workers were kind. I will surely come back.

One of my favorite Thai spots in South OC. THEY ARE CONSISTENT and food is always tasty! Love their tiger cry and they have really awesome lunch specials and don't forget to try their Thai Tea! They definitely get busy during lunch time--so make some extra time! Their service is quick and attentive.

Great service excellent food.

Best to Thai I've ever had regardless of price. Crying Tiger is one of the best beef dishes, period. All their soups are fantastic.Eaten their dozens of times and never had anything but great meals.

I told my friends about this place with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. This recommendation is always successful. The meals are appetizing and the crew is efficient and cooperative. Every time we go to this place we enjoy a lovely evening. I recommend this place with pleasure.

Good food and flavor! Hard to tell if the service was good, it was very busy. Had the Beef Lime Salad Lunch Special and enjoyed every bite... You know the kind of place where the flavors make your mouth water well after the meal has long been eaten. I would recommend this place and will go back.

The crying tiger is one of the best things I have ever put in my mouth. Love it.

Get a spicy level 5 panang. You will not regret it. I go here weekly and always get that. The best quality beef I have ever had in a panang. This place is my point of reference for that dish. The lunch specials are a very nice price ~9 $ for excellent quality. The staff is also always really friendly. We even have an inside joke about ordering panang... I eat here too much. :)

The customer service is consistently prompt, lovely ambience, super friendly employees. Will return again when I am here.

Awesome food. We have had many visits and keep coming back.

The food doesn't worth the price. The veggies even didn't wash and put on the plate. We can see the dirt of the cilantro that on the top of the meal. The rice wrapper of Fresh egg rolls are so hard not fresh at all. Tasted like a paper. The chicken tasted so hard like old and cheapest chicken. We couldn't believe that we didn't order a meal the Thai woman looks like the boss who served us put the order and added $3 extra shrimps. I guess she doesn’t understand English well. We noticed that she is only being nice to man customers and flirting too much. After we complained about the quality of the food she became so rude to us, and her voice of tone is like yielding to us, which is so disrespectful. We will never go there again.

I finally found the place I've been looking for. Not sure what's taken me so long because I've heard rave reviews about this place. I literally pass it everyday but for some reason, the plaza it's in always turned me away. It just seems like any other place but wow, was I wrong. This is easily the most authentic Thai food I've had in a long time. I get Panang chicken every place I go. And they make it EXACTLY how I remember it to be from Thailand. Also, my Thai ex that could cook better than most restaurants I eat in. Exactly the same. That smooth thick curry with a clean rich flavor of coconut and spices. My only issue was the chicken itself. It was just a tad chewy and dry but, traditionally, that's why curry was put on chicken so being a little dry is kind of more authentic, lol. Seriously, though, I would like to go again and i hope that the chicken is a little more moist. But, judging by the flavor of the curry, I'm sure I can give it another shot without worrying.

Had a good experience in this place with my kids. The food arrives quick and the customer service is just excellent. Prices are fair.

Great place to eat delicious Thai food with friends and family. Thai beer was very good. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Sea food, pineapple curry, green curry and pad Thai was delicious. Definitely plan on returning .

All right just average, pricey.

Highest quality food out of all the Thai restaurants in the area. Great place to go for lunch on weekdays.

Had a great experience,delicious food yammy, definitely going to see me again.

Nice, local restaurant with good food. They can make your dinner to meet your spice/heat desires. Can get crowds at dinner time, but the wait is never a problem.

Great spot. I love their yellow curry

Spice Thai has been our go-to Thai restaurant for the past few years now and the food has never disappointed. The food always tastes fresh, has been consistent in its quality and presentation and the staff is always pleasant and happy to have you dine with them. The décor could use a little help though, it feels like a haphazard 80's design but the food and service outshine the dated interior.

Love Thai food. They have an awesome House soup that is amazing. The crying tiger is lean, juicy and crispy on the surface so it is near perfect. Curry dishes are full of flavor but not overwhelming.

This place has been here for many years. I'm never disappointed. The food is fantastic with great service. Love this place.

Good, fresh food. Nice and clean. Good service. 👍

My absolute favorite Thai spot - possibly ever! The flavors are always balanced just right between salty, sweet, tart, and spicy. My go-tos are the papaya salad, tom yum soup, basil eggplant chicken, crying tiger, barbecue chicken, and pad see ew. Bring a group of friends because you'll want to try a little of everything!

Love this place. Always busy for lunch, but they move very fast. Crying tiger and crazy cashew dishes are amazing.

I used to live just a few blocks from here and this is one of my favorite places to eat. I am never disappointed with the food. Haven't ordered anything I didn't like!! Delicious recipes for all the classic Thai dishes. Don't judge this restaurant from its location in a plaza parking lot! Whenever I visit family in SoCal I go out of my way to have at least one meal here!!!

Great service and delicious food.

I've been going here for years. It's probably the best thai food place around here. I'd give it 5 stars except it's a little pricey. Really liked almost everything I've gotten there. But, the crying tiger wasn't as good as I've had elsewhere.

Good vegan choices. Better than quality food in general, and fast service

Wonderful Food, which you load on your plate yourself, along with the special sauces & the Management is Top Notch ! I know this personally 😄

Favorite place. Crying Tiger is the dish ti get here

Delicious food. Sometimes sour service 🤔

I've been coming here for a very long time. Food is excellent. I typically ask for the food to be on the spicy side.

The crying tiger is still the best. Still haven't had any other restaurants come close. Generous proportions cooked superbly.

We like a lot going out. Yesterday we went to this delicious restaurant which friends told us about. We spent a lovely experience there with excellent dishes and an efficient team and a distinguished chief cook. We added this venue in our phone list and we shall surely visit again very soon. We deeply recommend.

All food is delicious

The crying tiger is tender and savory, the fried rice noodles are light and crisp-! Everything was very tasty!

We arrived at this place for a meeting. my friend recommended this spot. Well, we were not disappointed. we were warmly welcomed by the staff and we felt good. The food was just great. We had a great time and we will definitely return to this restaurant. Warmly recommended.

Crying Tiger, although it is beef, is incredibly tender and perfectly seasoned. Delicious ! Service is excellent, too.

This place gives you an usual look as soon as you enter it, with stereotypical Thai ambience. A buddha idol, few pictures on Thai tradition, etc,. But the food is not so. The food is exquisite esp. Thai fresh wrap with Tofu tastes excellent with the peanut sauce and mint sauce they give. Tom Yum soup is my favorite. Being just a seafood eater, i was much impressed with Spicy Basil noodles with Shrimp. They were perfectly blended with vegetables and sauce that are mixed with, which I usually don't get in other places. I don't eat chicken and other meat, so i cannot comment on that. Service is good too. Overall you wouldn't be disappointed for the money.

Great Thai food choices! Won Ton soup excellent. Many entree choices available with great service.

Actually pretty good. I'm not overly fond of Thai food, so for me to suggest it might be worth your time means something. I always enjoy the Crying Tiger, which is both delicious and as far as I can tell, completely devoid of coconut milk. : -)

I love Thai food, but this is not good Thai food. It is super greasy and lacks flavor, I could deal with one or the other, not both During lunch it is so busy, you get soup, salad, rice and the entrée of your choice.

Food is fresh, hot and the atmosphere is friendly. Did I mention the food is really good? Try the tri tip egg rolls. They are really good.
