Larb Thai Food & Tapas

The green curry surpassed expectations, offering a burst of delicious flavors, and the eggplant was a standout with its perfect preparation. The white rice was just that, white rice, nothing spectacular While the Thai tea was enjoyable, a touch more sweetness could enhance the overall experience.

The restaurant captivates with its beautiful and cozy ambiance, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I see where they were going with the posters but maybe should be bigger to fit better with the overall style.

Additionally, attentive service and a diverse menu contribute to making this a memorable dining destination.

Outrageously good Thai food. Super flavorful, can be spicy if you want it, and feels very homey. Highly recommend the Khao Soi and the different larbs, all of which are super spicy fyi. Tons of vegetarian options including for the skewers and larbs, which is unique! Will definitely be back.

This place is one of the most authentic Thai restaurants in the Bay Area. It is quite far from the city but it is worth a trip (you can also go to Thai grocery shopping a few doors away as well). The boat noodle and anything northeastern food are amazing!

UPDATE 2024/4/8: Added some more photos. We tried the crispy rice ball salad and it is so refreshing with herbs and lime juice! It will be another dish I need to order every time I come here.

It’s more than some traditional Thai place, I like them to serve BBQ food, skewers of chicken, beef, and even sticky rice. It’s good.
I like their curry salmon.
Good taste.
Due to some food restrictions of my friends, I m not able to taste any cilantro and chopped onion. So I think I miss out some real taste of Thai food.

Small but amazing place for authentic Thai food! Service was excellent, fast and efficient. We were able to be seated right away, order placed within 7min, water, drinks and plates were out right away and food was out within 10min! 👌 We ordered the Beef Noodle Soup, Signature Lemon Grass Chicken, Fried Calamari and Thai Tea. All dishes were delicious and had an authentic Northern Thai flavor. The Thai Tea was some of the best tasting I've had in a long time. I highly recommend this place and we'll be back for sure!

Fantastic and flavorful thai food, loved every bite of it. To start with, we tried their hot Thai tea, it was really good, they refill it for free. Then, we ordered vegetarian Khao soi with fried tofu, it turned out to be the best Thai dish I’ve ever tried, the flavors were simply amazing. We also tried their vegetarian pad Thai and drunken noodles and loved both dishes. The food is amazing here and the staff is extremely kind, service is great. We will surely be coming back here.

This place is magical. Definetly the best Thai food I've ever had. We ordered the Chicken Larb, Pork Noodle Soup, and Green Curry. I was a little worried about the soup as I believe they said there is blood in the broth and it was darker and thicker than most. But uh, nothing to worry about! It was sweet and had so much flavor. The meat, noodles and broccoli inside were sooo good.

Everything was awesome, glad we went there.

Our American friends love this Thai restaurant and took me (who is Thai) there. We enjoyed the food there a lot. Our favorite was Crispy Rice Balls Thai Salad. Som-tam or Green Papaya Salad was also pretty good. They also have menus for Thai people with the rare food to find here, like Thai Spicy Fish Stomach Curry, yum! The service is good and we like their food presentation as well. We'll be back!

Local spot serving the absolute best Thai food you will eat. I eat here multiple times a month and the food is always consistently outstanding. It is a bit spicy so order mild if you're not sure. Great service, they are very polite and kind.

Stay true to the authenticity, Larb Thai is a hidden gem in a small strip mall along San Pablo. Their menu has not changed much because they don’t need to. All are very good. I do miss the specials they used to have which were incredibly Thai. Daily menu’s favorite for me are THE rice ball salad, larva, pad de ew, drunken noodle and boat noodle. Khao Soi, of course pad Thai. Although the lemongrass chicken was good too! Service was attentive. Dining area is tastefully decorated. It is my family’s perennial favorite since it was introduced to us by a professional foodie.

Very delish food and friendly fast service! Try the mushroom larb and the pumpkin curry! Their spice levels pack some heat, so be sure to plan accordingly. The server fortunately informed us before we ordered.

I loved everything. Must try crispy rice salad! It comes with pork or tofu. The flavors were complex and well balanced. Lemongrass, chilli, and mint were the showcase of this well spiced dish. The Pad Thai and green curry were delicious. They tasted very mild after the spicy crispy rice app. Finished on a sweet note.

My larb was fresh, clean and juicy. The staff are very friendly. Just be aware that I ordered my food only mildly spicy and I thought it was quite spicy. ;)

The wait staff was warm & friendly. The menu was clear with an extensive selection of quality dishes. Nice ambiance! Everything was fresh & served quickly. Delicious calamari & sauce. Coconut soup with mushrooms tasty, but a bit pricey @ $6.25. Thai iced-tea just right!

The Khao Soi is really good here. The noodles are delightfully chewy and not overcooked. It reminded me of the bouncy mouth feel of great wonton noodles in HK.
I'm excited to come back to try other dishes.
Also of note is the crushed dry shrimp and chili alongside the traditional dry chili dust.

Top of the list for Bay Area Thai, with real, authentic flavors. Especially like the pad kee mao and larb. Good service, nice atmosphere, well priced. Great choice all around.

Fantastic cuisine and wonderful staff! Pork Hock was tender, flavorful, and satisfying. Chicken curry was delectable and the coconut milk was made from fresh coconuts. Generous portions on both dishes. Looking forward to trying more tasty dishes!

Hidden gem in the East Bay! This place is by fat my favourite Thai food place in the Bay area. Khao soi and Larb dishes are my go-to orders!!

Great atmosphere and amazing food. I really like the drunken noodles and the lemongrass chicken. Everything I have had there is so good. Clearly quality ingredients. Really nice interior as well and the people who work there are great. Note - medium spicy is quite spicy!

My favorite Thai restaurant in Bay Area. The service is amazing with delicious food. They are always kind and ready to substitute items on your order if you are vegetarian. I miss going there as I moved to San Jose but I do drive up once In a while to get get my fav Thai food. My all time favorite dish from this place is khao soi with veggies and Thai iced tea!
