Larb Thai Food & Tapas in El Cerrito

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.

Inside the restaurant it’s cleaned and host is really friendly and attentive. Chicken larb salad tastes tangy and refreshing. Beef stew noodle not recommended since the beef is hard to chew and only few pcs vegetables and soup base is dense and spicy. They have beer from Thailand and Lao which you can’t find it from many of the places.

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.

I recently dined at Larb Thai Food & Tapas in Albany and had their Green Curry. The dish was customizable with a choice of meat and came with broccoli, eggplant, green beans, and basil, served alongside fried egg and Jasmine rice. The portion size was good, and the meal left me feeling comfortably satisfied. The flavors of the curry were well-balanced, and the attentive service and pleasant ambiance added to the overall experience.

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 Ive had in a long time. I highly recommend this place and well 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.

We eat here regularly and they have a few really hit dishes: fried taro, fried chicken wings, skewers, crispy rice ball salad, tom yum soup. You cant go wrong with any of those dishes. Theyre being authentic but I find their spice level to be way too hot. Ive once asked for mild or not spicy papaya salad only for it to be, sadly, so spicy its inedible for me. The other thing Ill ding a star is that all of their noodle soups and curries are way too sugary.

Lovely place. Friendly and prompt service. Clean bathrooms.Food is flavorful tasty but quite spicy so watch out. We shared larb as well as red curry with chicken. Fiery but delish. Will be back for more!

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!

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. Well be back!
