Thai is definitely in my top 5 for favorite cuisines, and this is one of the best I've come across in the East Bay. We came in for lunch today and the food was delicious! We made a reservation since we were a group of 9, so we were seated right away. This restaurant is small, but it so cute and charming! We tried a lot of different dishes and there wasn't a dish we didn't like. The order: Fried Calamari, Crispy Tofu, Egg Rolls, Tom Kha Gai, Crab Fried Rice, House Fried Rice with Beef, Pad Thai with Shrimp, Pad Se Ew with... read more

The parking was difficult, but we managed. The decor, etc. was beautiful. The service was great. The food was fresh and colorful. HOWEVER everything was too effing spicy!! The menu indicated certain items were "medium" spicy, which would have been fine. Just to be sure, we asked them to tone that down to mild wherever possible. Yet, for me anyway, almost nothing we ordered was edible. YMMV. I guess that's a personal experience, but this was mine.

We got hungry around 8:30 and looked for a Thai restaurant to go to. We got in well before their 9 o'clock closing time. We were welcomed by friendly people and got a nice table in their lovely, very comfortable dining room. We ordered Pad Thai and halibut green curry. Both dishes were outstanding. Perfectly spiced. Both dishes came out very quickly. My family member has eaten a lot of Pad Thai in Thailand having lived there for three months. He was surprised and delighted by how tasty his dish was. We highly recommend this... read more

Firstly I must say that I love that they have a vegetarian menu! I say thank you to this restaurant for caring about people who make healthy and kind choices. We tried to go to another local Thai restaurant but they were closed that evening, a Tuesday no less. I'm so glad we ended up here, I loved the experience. The ambiance was delightful (serene, cosy, down to earth), the food was incredibly delicious (amazing flavors) and thoughtfully presented, and the service was friendly and attentive. I might go as far as to say th... read more

Anchalee is hands-down my favorite Thai restaurant in the Bay Area. The food is always consistently amazing -- every single visit delivers the same great flavors I've come to love. The staff are warm, friendly, and make you feel right at home. Plus, there's easy, free street parking. My favorite dishes? The crab fried rice is a standout -- generously topped with sweet, tender crab meat, and the sauce makes it sing. The Penang curry bursts with flavor, with beef that's melt-in-your-mouth tender. The curry puffs are dangerous... read more

There are a lot of Thai restaurants in Berkeley but Anchalee has been my favorite by a long shot. I wish I was there right now. Beautiful and cozy restaurant with delicious tom kha.

Fantastic food with generous portions. We had a soup and the duck. They were both perfectly spiced. I wish the soup was served first: it was served after the duck and wasn't hot by the time we eat it.
