My wife and I were not starving for dinner but knew we should eat a little something so we would not be hungry late at night. Since we didn't want clam chowder or fried food, which is what is mostly available in the local restaurants, we decided on Thai Talay.
The restaurant is clean and neat and inviting. We were seated right away. The wait staff seemed like they did not care if we were there or not and were not very attentive. We ordered the pineapple red curry with chicken and some steamed rice figuring that would be enough to fill us up. Boy was it, the bowl of curry came and it was much bigger than expected. The flavor was outstanding and it was loaded with chicken breast pieces and pineapple. All in all this was just what we were looking to have for dinner and for a grand total of $13 we were both quite full. I would have given this a 5 if the wait staff was a bit friendlier and more attentive. The great food made up for that as far as I was concerned.

I've eaten here at least 10 times on visits to the Central Coast, and it has consistently been delicious every time.

I either get the Pad Thai with chicken or the Red Curry with pineapple and chicken, served with brown rice. The flavors are simply delicious, and the meats and veggies used are fresh and served in generous portions. I always have leftovers for the next day.

The restaurant is dimly lit at night, and therefore a good place to take a date, but it's also family friendly. Atmosphere is warm and inviting and they generally have cool music playing in the background. Service is usually good, but in my opinion the servers could be a bit more attentive - a few times water glasses have remained empty, etc. But no big deal. The food is very worth it!

What exquisite cuisine served by friendly, efficient servers! The mixed vegetable glass noodle soup was light & delicious.The pineapple fried rice was great. The baked custard in the coconut shell was huge & soooo good. A great dining experience at a reasonable price!
