We were pleasantly surprised to find suck a good place, non-traditional, to eat. We had the spinach yellow curry with shrimp and liked it so much we went back the next day for takeout to bring to northern California. The staff was pleasant and helpful, the food was excellent! We're going back in December when we visit Pismo Beach again. more

The fact that it was the lunch hour and there was only one other couple eating in the restaurant should have been a clue. Or maybe the fact that after waiting to be seated for some time we were greeted by a "waitress" carrying around a baby. The food was a bit pricey, but even worse, it was horrible tasting.... more

It took about 5 minutes before the busboy even looked up at my party of two. He then said, "Uh, wait a minute, I need to clean the tables." I looked around and there were plenty of clean tables to be seated in. Finally a lovely young lady came to seat us. She was such a dear. She almost made... more

I recently visited Pismo Beach with my family and we were looking for a relaxed, friendly place to share a meal. Luckily, we stumbled into Thai Talay. It was a busy night (which was a good sign for us) but the wait staff attended to us quickly and efficiently, and with big smiles. Our waitress (I wish I remembered her... more

Having eaten at hundreds of Thai restaurants I was a bit sceptical when a friend highly recommended this eatery in a touristy coastal town, and I was even more concerned after reading the 7/15 review posted on this site. I went anyway and I am very glad I did. From start to finish the service was engaging, informative, and efficient.... more

My wife and I went to Thai Talay last night. We had read here that the service was terrible but the food was very good, so we decided to give it try. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing. There were perhaps 3 tables of diners having dinner. There was no one to greet us, so we chose a table... more

We ordered take out from here, but it is a real sit-down resturaunt. I can't remember what else we ordered except for the Tom Yum Soup which was super delish! If you're stopping through Pismo and are craving some real Thai food this is the place! more

After hearing from several people that this had better Thai food than my fave Thai restaurant in Arroyo Grande, I decided to have lunch there mid-week with a friend. Uncrowded, with only a couple of other parties there, we were brought salads before we had placed our order. The salad had a honey mustard poppy seed dressing and was apparently... more

Was a repeat customer. Good, expensive Thai Food. Expect a long wait and to possibly be accosted if you don't tip enough. We were run down in the parking lot when we forgot to leave a tip on our $100+ takeout. Never will return due to scary service. Worth the drive into SLO to avoid the bizarre and frightening waitstaff. more
