Spice Thai Cuisine, Lake Forest CA

First time experience and both my wife and I enjoyed our lunch. I had the Crying Tiger and it was excellent! My wife had the drunken noodles also excellent. Will be back soon!

The food is delicious and the lunch specials are definitely worth it. I work nearby and have had dine-in/takeout 30+ times, and the great taste and quality is always there.
Crying tiger is my favorite followed by pad see ew, any of the curries, pad thai, tom yum soup. Would highly recommend for lunch but not as much for dinner, there's a price increase and the side of rice is no longer complimentary.

Its very disappointing that the service and food at this restaurant has declined. I ordered my food online and when I picked up my food, it was the wrong order after I left the place already was it then noticed. I thought I'd try again and I ordered pad Thai. Again, it was an online order and when I picked it up and left with it, it was completely burnt. I thought I could salvage it by eating around the burnt food but it started to give me a stomachache. Its a shame because I loved the food at this restaurant a year ago.: - (

Like many other reviewers here, I agree that Spice Thai's Crying Tiger is definitely one of the best I've ever had anywhere, including ridiculously more expensive/highly reviewed restaurants. Service is always polite and friendly. Restaurant is clean. Truly a hidden gem in this shopping center. Highly recommended!

Hands down the best Thai spot I have ever been to. The crying tiger and the basil beef, shrimp, or chicken are my favorite. However, anything you order from here will not be disappointing. I guarantee it.

Good selection of typical Thai dishes. My friend and I were there for lunch, about 1: 30. The food we received was perfect. Mine was spicy and temp hot, and my friend's food wasn't spicy, flavorful, and hot temp. We got water, and they put a slice of lemon, and the water actually tasted good. Usually, restaurant watch seems to taste like chlorine, but theirs tasted like filtered water. I got the spicy basil noodle dish with chicken, and my friend got Pad Ew, I think that was the name. She got beef in hers.

My chicken was slightly overdone, but hers was done to perfection, nice and tender. Next time I go, I will ask them to try and not overcook the chicken.it is easy to do.

Overall, I was very pleased. Oh, the prices were fair, especially for the amount and quality.

Pretty good lunch spot. Their crying tiger is definitely the menu highlight. However, they don't make a delicious Thai spice sauce with fresh chili's. Which is kind of disappointing. Also they don't make Thai tea with lactose free milk options. Overall a solid lunch spot, but definitely not the best in the area.

Good heat. No tomato-which is common. Carrots-which are less common. Pricey for takeout soup at $23 with a tip.

I’ve been dining at Spice Thai Cuisine since 2019 and have always had a great experience. The food is tasty, service is excellent, and atmosphere is cozy. I bring visitors here for dinner all the time, and everyone loves this restaurant. I always have leftovers because the portions are generous. I’m so lucky to live nearby!
