Pookie's

Such a cute environment. We went around 7pm on a Tuesday and it was pretty empty. We got the jade curry, beef satay, and the west side wontons which were all fire. We also met Pookie herself and she was so sweet. Worth a second visit for sure! I would say new menus or a digital menu would be nice but the menus are cool with the wood and the metal detailing.

Very good but not quite outstanding Thai food. Prices were a bit on the higher side ($15-$17 avg) for moderate portions. The papaya salad (som tum) was probably the best dish with the right amount of spiciness. The Penang chicken curry was very creamy with coconut milk but slightly bland. At first glance I thought the peas were Thai eggplant. The basil chicken (krapaw gai) was properly minced but again was slightly less flavorful than expected. The Singapore noodles were good, but just seemed a bit soggy. Service was average. For example, my water glass but we were never offered a refill. I'll hope to return and try other dishes! Hint: hard to find, located in Water Court at an open air inside ground floor courtyard. Best to park at suite number "910", take the stairs down, then immediate

A very relaxing ambience and friendly staff is what greets you when you enter Pookie's. The food is flavorsome, provides a good potion and is very satisfying. The place looks very upscale but is easy on the pocket. It's better to reach a bit early or reserve ahead since the place gets crowded very quickly. There is elaborate seating inside and outside the restaurant but it gets cold outside during the evenings. The place offers take out. The staff is also very helpful as they explain each dish we are interested in and recommend dishes according to our interests. I will definitely be visiting again just for the love of good Thai food and the ambience of the place.

One of the best Thai places around Thousand Oaks. The food is just part of the experience. The outdoor seating with sounds of waterfall, and a small pond with ducks is a serene experience. It's good to visit in the evenings in summer so that the heat doesn't kill you.

I really enjoyed the food that was served here, and I thought the waiter was nice. However, it took quite a bit to order our food, get our food, wait for the check, and get our card back after paying. This might be due to understaffing, but I still think that Pookie's is a great restaurant. If you come here, I suggest arriving earlier than you originally planned to eat because it might take a bit before you get your food. I ordered the Cha Cha Fish.
