Summer Summer Thai Eatery

My go-to place for Thai food in the area. From dining in to take out and delivery, I've enjoyed every dish I've tried. The best value and variety, in my opinion, is the curry à trois. The Khao Soi is also delicious and worth a try for a traditional Northern Thai dish.

The Best Thai in town. I love everything on their menu, very fresh and reasonably priced. The ribeye dish is amazing. Their summer rolls are so delicious. I also love the easygoing vibe and the super friendly staff. A hidden gem.

This is one place I eat almost once a week. Being a vegetarian it's difficult sometimes to get good food but this place has very good vegetarian options particularly spicy fried rice, pineapple rice, veggie rolls, summer roles are to die for. Nice ambience, I mostly do takeout. Their red veggie Curry is also very good and good proportions. They also have a bar and variety of cocktails. Can go with friends or a date.

They're so kind and attentive, definitely reminds me of how 'service' was thought of before our descending into general meanness.

The food is always EXCELLENT and they have GREAT cocktails that aren't $15-20 with like zero alcohol like soo many places post covid.

They're great about dietary restrictions and menu changes. And they usually remember after 1 visit which is insanely rare nowadays!!!

They're genuine, kind and clearly care. I hope people who live in the area give them a try or we'll lose another wonderful restaurant!!! PLEASE SUPPORT OUR LOCAL BUSINESS FOLKS!!!!

You can have higher expectations at Thai restaurants with certain items on the menu, such as som tum (papaya salad) and Thai grilled meats with sticky rice. There is also a happy hour with a great selection of drinks and appetizers. Tare tare is highly recommended! Came here with a group of 8 and had a great time. Loved the pad see ew and sea bass.
Service was a slow after drink orders but isn't a problem if you're the to catch up with folks. I had to call someone over to place an order after waiting for someone to take our order for 20 minutes, but at least food came pretty quick afterwards. Service was otherwise good.

Pros: delicious Thai food, great happy hour
Cons: street parking

Happy hour is 5 to 7, cheaper apps and drinks.

Delicious food, very good prices. I love that there was a curry sampler entree with all three major curries (yellow, red, green)! Usually I don't get to try all three. The curries had plenty of meat (or tofu) and rich sauces that were flavorful and just the right amount of spicy. It won't be too much for most people at the base level - if you want way more kick, I would ask. We also got corn fritters. Delicious and crispy, plenty of them especially at happy hour prices. and we got a Summer Roll - similar to a veggie spring roll but with avocado. Plenty of comfortable seating - I was super surprised to see so few people there. Staff was very friendly and helpful - they moved a nearby table together with our table once we got too much food, which is quite unusual. We didn't even ask them or anything. They were very understanding. The food also had beautiful presentation; hopefully you can see the pictures.

I love this place and am definitely coming back. Hopefully I will have room for dessert next time. 😋

Update: I made a subsequent take-home order and got the mango sticky rice!! 🥭 🍚 It was delicious.

I ordered take out, Pad Thai (chicken) and Drunken noodles (chicken). Really good food, freshly cooked. You have to ask for the sauces, they do not automatically include it in the takeout bag. The ambience is really good should you decide to eat inside

Delicious Thai food! Service was fast and they were really nice 🙌🏻 I had summer rolls and red curry both vegetarian: delicious. Food was beautifully presented. Cute interior. Will be back!

I love this place ! 🇹🇭❤ I enjoyed the Pork stake and Pad thai. The pork dish was so nice and familiar flavor to Korean 😘(두툼하고 고급진 돼지갈비맛 스테이크 !) And Pad thai was little bit salty but various ingredients were tasted harmonious. The mood was lovely and price was reasonable. There are some street parking spots and those are free after 5 pm on weekdays.

So delicious and abundant portions. Yum!
Uncommonly, the pad tai here was gluten free and had plenty of protein with shrimp and chicken. The Curry a trois - three "small" bowls of different curries - all three curries I'd eat again.

Super tasty Thai food that's cooked really well with a nice presentation. We just ate here and already wanna go back. Service can be slow since they're a bit short staffed but their attitudes are all great. Just like being in Thailand without the travel costs

An all time favorite for Thai. Everything we’ve ever ordered has been delicious. My favorites are the Roti with green curry, gingerly ginger, and the salmon bowl. For drinks the lychee martini and ginger martini are delicious. The portions are generous and there’s never a wait to be seated. Service can be a tad slow but they’re very friendly.

I go here 2-3 times a week. Amazing food, service and a great family restaurant. I love the chicken fried rice personally. Best place for lunch or dinner.

Staff was incredible. Food came out prompt and warm. Drink was made very well. The space is comfortable and clean. All of the people here were helpful and made the experience great.

This was my first time eating here. The staff was so friendly. We arrived 20 minutes before they closed. They did not make us feel rushed. The food was great and so were the portions. I will definitely be coming here again.

I think this is the best Thai restaurant in Emeryville. I am vegetarian and I have tried all vegetarian items here. All the items are good. I almost always try pineapple fried rice and it is good all the time. They are always consistent regarding the taste.
In past they had messed up with my order by adding egg in it, but they fixed it by making fresh fish again. So if you are vegetarian then check your served item twice.
Curries are good too. I generally order yellow curry which is good.
They also offer cooking classes, but I have not attended any. I guess, it is good too.

Great little place, fast service for lunch in a work day. Reasonable pricing. Food was great, just me ordered something too spicy for myself. Next time would like to try the salmon curry.

We just had a GREAT LUNCH here.

Each item was a large portion.

The service provided by “Tanawat” was COURTEOUS, FRIENDLY & PROFESSIONAL!

Thank You Tanawat!

Great Thai food! I had the sole and it was amazing. The papaya salad had a different flavor than what I have had in the past, but it was fantastic new taste!
