Top Pan Asian Restaurant in Encinitas
One2Go Thai Kitchen
191 N El Camino Real #110, Encinitas, CA 92024, United States
I called around 9pm and was told by the person(JACK claims to be his name. Image attached) who attended my call before even taking my order that they are closing soon. Then he asked me what I want? I said 2 orders and of tom yum soup spice level 10. Then he asked me what meat I want in my soup? I asked him what options I have? Which is a common question everyone asks while ordering. But then Kim he right away got mad and told me “YOU ARE WASTING MY TIME” can't you look at the menu online and order? I was soo down hearing those words from him at that point. Again I politely replied him that I am driving from Fallbrook to his restaurant only so I can't look at his menu while driving and I requested him to go over the protein options they have? He refused to provide option. Then I asked him do you have beef? He said “NO”. Then I aske do you have “MIX SEAFOOD”? He said “NO”. But even then he is not ready to explain the option. But he was in a intension to disconnect my call and told me he not gonna place my order until I reach his restaurant and do not want to waste food. I again pleaded him that I am driving please place the order for 2 Tom yum chicken soup large spice 10 and if you want I can pay now on the phone so that if I reach close to his closing time I can just pick up and I won't be a reason to close his ledger delayed and go home late. But he refused that too. He again said he won't place the order and waste food, and be here before closing and place order in person.After the experience over the phone I was about to turn over from my half way, but since my wife asked for the soup and that was the only restaurant open until 9.30 i proceeded.Once I reached the restaurant I asked him are you the one who was talking to me on the phone? Can't you explain the protein option while I was driving? He again with an attitude showed me the laminated menu to see the option, and didn't allowed me to talk further.I then placed the order for 2 large soup and told him I “Don't want to waste time with a person who doesn't know to respect others time”.Not sure if this business owner read this review?I was standing in front of him and waiting for my order for 10 mins for no reason and that could be avoided if he took my order over phone and that would have made both ends easier. He was showing kind of worst attitude like why I am there at his restaurant for the whole time when I was there waiting for the food.And BTW: The soup was soo bland. No sourness at all. No taste at all. I am having Tom Yum soup for years and this is not the one I expected. My bad. Wrong restaurant choice. Never ever returning back.

LET YOUR TASTEBUDS DO THE TALKING ! We been here many times for dinner and its always been outstanding ! Every dish is prepared with top quality fresh ingredients expertly cooked with mouthwatering dashes of flavor by highly trained kitchen staff lead by Executive Chef Eric Brannon right in front of you. WE LOVE IT ! My wife and I headed over here on Friday evening to enjoy a dine-in dinner. We arrived about 5.30pm and snaffled a handy park spot in front of the restaurant. Lovely Olivia the cashier behind the service counter welcomed us immediately we walked in. Normally it is a walk up to order, get a table number and they bring your food to your table. Even though no one is required to wear masks here anymore these guys are still playing it cool with socially distanced tables inside...there is also a nice outdoor patio which is fully functional. At present you can scan the QR Code with your phone and place your order from your phone...no problem ! Eric the head chef spotted us and gave us a big hello. We grabbed a table towards the rear of the restaurant but in full view of the open kitchen. My wife ordered everything from her iPhone...1 x Modern Times Orderville Hazy IPA, 1 x Chicken Spring Rolls Appetizer, 1 x Orange-Ish Chicken ( comes with serve of white rice ) & 1 x Spicy Ribeye & Rice Cakes. An ice cold can of hazy IPA and a chilled glass arrived on our table within 60 seconds courtesy of Martini...server & food runner extraordinaire. My ice cold hazy IPA tasted very good. Next minute our Chicken Spring Rolls hit the table and we got stuck in straight away. One bite and my wifes Orange-Ish Chicken & Rice came out...a sight to behold. Even though some might say the prices here are a little elevated ...the quality ingredients, large serve sizes and the incredible flavors do the talking ! The Chicken Spring Rolls tasted crispy and yummy all at once. The Orange-Ish Chicken ( we have enjoyed it many times ) almost defies description....very tender juicy chicken tempura coated with interesting spices like nothing else anywhere. And then my Spicy Ribeye & Rice Cakes was placed in front of me courtesy of Martini again. This has to be the most flavorsome amazing dish I have ever enjoyed ( I said the same thing last visit )...perfect texture juicy ribeye strips with an avalanche of flavor...mind numbingly satisfying ! WOW....we totally enjoyed everything in front of us. Thanks to head chef Eric and his dedicated talented kitchen crew, lovely cashier Olivia for her big welcoming smile and our amazing hard working server/ food runner Martini. THIS PLACE IS THE REAL DEAL !
Harumama Noodles Buns Beer (Encinitas)
1460 Encinitas Blvd, Encinitas, CA 92024, United States
A Saucy Tale of Love, Loss, and Ramen!Alright, yall, lets gab about Harumama, the local belly-lovin gem smack dab in the plaza where Ive clocked more hours than I care to admit (dont judge me, okay?).First off, yes, the service. Its like a good date - attentive, charming, and occasionally tardy. But hey, arent we all? Theyre worth the wait, promise.Now, onto the tragedy of our tale. Imagine my shock, my heartbreak, when I found out that my beloved pulled chicken bao buns had been banished from the menu! I mean, I mightve shed a tear. Just one, mind you.And yes, sure, they sometimes run out of stuff. But hey, the early bird gets the bun...whatever the saying is. You get my drift.But fear not, dear reader, for there is a silver (or should I say, spicy) lining. Allow me to introduce you to my new infatuation - Me so hot! Ramen. Talk about a meal and a half, folks! Packed with enough punch to keep me fuelled from lunchtime till the stars come out.And their character buns? Think doughy deliciousness meets a Pixar movie. Irresistible, I tell ya!I still adore Harumama. Would I eat there more? Heck yes. But you know what they say, you are what you eat. And as much as I love em, Im not quite ready to be as soft and squishy as their buns.You dont want to turn into a bun, do you? Or... do you?
Dennys
12861 Encinitas Ave, Sylmar, CA 91342, United States
Unfortunately our car broke down in the parking lot but luckily for us the Dennys was here open Clean had a great atmosphere and very relaxing vibe there werent a lot of guests so was totally chill everyone was super friendly and nice our waitress she was very nice as well she didnt go above and beyond but she did her job so that was perfect for us at this particular Moment In Time. I ordered the Grand Slam breakfast pancakes were hot fresh crispy to Perfection bacon was made the eggs were made excellent but the waitress forgot my hash browns thats okay again she was very nice about it she made no excuses and she said next time I should just double check orders so I like that because she took accountability for the mistake perfectly fine we all make mistakes and again she was nice. Im giving it three stars because the apple crisp pie are apple pie crust as they call it is not an actual pie its just apples with ice cream and a little caramel sauce drizzled so that was kind of a waste of money other than that the coffee was hot the breakfast was good the atmosphere was great and the people were nice. So warning if you come here please dont order the apple crisp pie thinking that it has crust because it did it and if it was supposed to ours definitely didnt have any which Im pretty sure it was supposed to well let me know Ramble On It our tow truck drivers here you guys stay safe and well.
