Thai Gulf Restaurant

I’ve never had to write a negative review before, but I do not recommend this restaurant! My husband and I ordered out tonight, and we picked the drunken noodles and mango sticky rice. The flavor was ok, but the portion sizes were ridiculously small. For $60 expect to receive portions around the sizes of TV dinners and customer service that brushes off your complaint. (Please note the size of the sauce cup relative to the sticky rice for reference.)

Great restaurant!!! Nice decor, beautiful music playing, and delicious fresh food. The Tom Yum soup was the best Tom Yum I've ever had, and I LOVED the salmon panang. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Our waitress recommended the seafood dressing with the pan seared salmon salad (since the dressing it came with contained butter, which I don't eat). The dressing was DELICIOUS.

The food here is amazing! Great service, wonderful atmosphere. I love their Red Curry! That and the coconut seafood hot pot! And they have the very best fried Chicken Wings! They are crispy, and have a grwat sauce and veggies on top!

Honestly one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Orange County!! Such amazing and friendly owners with so very delicious and unique recipes. The curries are to die for and love getting it with the roti for dipping. Also, the pineapple fried rice is a game changer! Can’t wait to go back!

Portions are tiny, preset tip added, and poor value. Visited in today and spent around $100 for two people. We left hungry. Portions have shrunk dramatically compared to last year. For example, the curry was mostly sauce with a few thin slices of protein, and the noodles felt appetizer-sized. Flavor was just okay, but the value was terrible. What bothered me most: the bill came with a gratuity already preselected on the payment screen without clear notice beforehand. I support local restaurants, but that feels like an abuse of trust. Please be transparent about any automatic gratuity and bring portion sizes back to what they were, or price accordingly. Until then, I will not return. There are plenty of honest Thai spots nearby that give you your money’s worth.
