A modern traveler may notice a number of changes in the way Thai meals are prepared.
Thai cuisine is distinct and refined, but it is still quite simple to create.
Thai food is still primarily composed…
I've ordered Thai food delivery on DD before and it's been disappointing, so I have to review this restaurant. Everything arrived HOT, no leaks, and packaged perfectly AND THE FOID IS FANTASTIC. The portions are hefty we ordered 3 appetizers and 2 entrees, and it's enough to feed 5 or more people -lots of leftovers for the 2 of us. Pad Thai and Panang Curry are musts. So are the eggrolls, potstickers, and chicken satay.

Our second order from Ocean Thai. The Crying Tiger of Ocean Thai is so excellent! It's obvious this restaurant starts with high quality fresh ingredients. Very consistent from first order; nice job. Portion sizes are excellent and the duck in the Chow - Mein was also very very good, not fatty like some others, really tasty. We'll order again soon. #1 Thai in our opinion in north San Diego.

This was the best Thai food I've ever had. Usually it's just so-so; but this is definitely our new go to place for Thai. The Esan sauce with the Crying Tiger of Ocean was totally awesome; what Fantastic well priced delicious item; yea! All the rest was great too; super fresh veggies and great portion of apps. The Satay was also super good as were the dumplings. Nice job!

I got the 42. Drunken Noodles with pork and it was fantastic! Lots of pork and was even presentational. I opened the to-go container and the food was topped with a sprinkle of sprouts and two big basil leaves set in the corner. How quaint.

Just moved to Oceanside and this place was recommended by a few friends. Ordered on DoorDash and it did not disappoint. The pad Thai was delicious and had great flavor. We also got the coconut soup and chicken satay which was cooked perfectly. We're actually ordering it for a second night in a row!
