The world is chucked full of pretty okkkkay Thai food. Passable Thai food. Shruggable Thai food. It is very difficult to find Thai that is holy sh*t excellent. Look no further, yelpees, welcome to Anchalee's table. Literally throw a dart at the menu and order. You cant go wrong. I will say the crispy rice salad is the sleeper, like you have no idea something with a crap name like that can taste so good. Just had the banana wrapped salmon today, divine. Delicate. Anchalee, how did you do this? Everything is fresh, balanc... read more
This Thai spot has been in West Berkeley for at least a decade and I believe owned and operated by the same couple. Consistency is a good thing and not necessarily the hobgoblin of small minds. Who said that anyway? Presumably somebody who makes highly erratic Thai food. But look, I'm not here to name names. I'm here to write about the dependable Thai food that was prepared and delivered by Anchalee. That's the first name of the female half of the ownership. And even in the takeout trays, there was a palpable homestyle vibe... read more

Such good food!! Was craving some Thai, and this hit the spot. I m from Thailand and everything was p authentic, som tum was slight exception normally it's a lil more acid n salt but their version is vegetarian friendly so no fish sauce dried shrimps etc. Still bomb tho. No complaints at all for everything else, my seafood special was soooo good I asked for squid instead of mussels and ugh umami bomb. Literally j perfection w the bell peppers (which I don't like normally) and eggplant. Fish was flaky and tender, and shrimp w... read more

I got a noodle dish with prawns. It only had 3 prawns. And it didn't have very many green beans either--the main vegetable in it. Disappointing.
The food was very good. It was delicious and tasty and we'd come back for it. But the service leaves alot to be desired. We ordered appetizers and some of our group ordered soup and salads as their main entree. The appetizers came and were delicious. But then the salads and soups for half of the table were served. No one cleared the table of the appetizer plates, and immediately, it was clear that the main entries for the others weren't coming soon. So it was extremely awkward as half of the group had there food to ... read more
Business response:
Hi Tom, Thank you for the review and for the kind words about the food — we’re really happy to hear you enjoyed it! That means a lot to us. Sorry to hear the service didn’t measure up, though. It sounds like things got disorganized and not professionally done and we totally get how awkward that must’ve been. That’s not the experience we want anyone to have here, and we’ll definitely be chatting with the staff to make sure this kind of thing doesn’t happen again. We’d love a chance to make it right, so if you’re up for giv... read more
So Thai food is built around 5 tastes. Unfortunately omelet one dish came even close; the mango salad had all but the bitter. Colorful, light, complex. Delicious. The same could not be said for the very brown and one note pad si ew and basil pork, the latter so salty almost inedible. We will try again as the mango salad was promising but will avoid two of our favorite dishes.
