Opinions de Zab Zab Thai Monterey
Such a lovely spot. The Thai Tea was absolutely amazing! The appetizers we had were so delicious. I wish I had gotten something else for my main though. The beef and broccoli wok was pretty standard… I was really expecting something super delicious because of the tea and appetizers. Still good though.
This restaurant came recommended. They did lie. The food was fantastic. The service was superb. We were allowed to choose our table. We were accommodated our gluten free order and vegetarian order.
Amazing authentic Thai food. I highly recommend their curry dishes along with the duck dishes. I enjoy my food crazy spicy and I love that they can accommodate that with the spice level choices you can do.
Great atmosphere, reasonable prices, very cute interior and exterior. The location on Lighthouse is stellar. The mussaman beef curry is my personal favorite, one of the top dishes across all restaurants in Monterey!
My wife had the Wonton Soup, I had the Mango-Coco curry with shrimp and my 6 year old daughter had the Beef Massaman curry. All were outstanding! We will definitely be coming back!
Had a craving all week for this Thai Coconut Soup! Super refreshing, and incredibly delicious! Got a Thai Tea on the side that gave me that extra kick i needed in the afternoon. The outdoor patio seating is private and surrounded by flowers. Great price too! Most people will spend about $15-$20 per person!
This place was so cute and the owners are absolutely lovely. I went out to lunch with a friend and it was absolutely delicious! I got a green curry while she got a red. As you can see, the presentation is beautiful and let me tell you… it tastes as good as it looks! Of course if you visit, you gotta get the Thai tea, and we couldn’t help a little sweet treat. Everything was phenomenal (especially the service). Definitely on of my favorite restaurants in the area.
Love this place. We've tried most of the Thai places in the area and this is by far our favorite. It feels the most authentic. My only complaint is that they don't offer different spice levels (which I think says more about the clientele than about their food, because this has been the case at every Thai restaurant we've tried around here so far). I have family from Thailand and have visited the country before, so I think my standards are higher than most in the area, but overall this place is great and I'm happy to have a go-to for Thai cuisine.
Just had to share our incredible experience at Zab Zab Thai in Monterey. This place absolutely blew us away from the moment we walked in. The service here is top-notch - the staff was so friendly and welcoming, and they really knew their stuff when it came to the menu. You can tell they care about making sure every guest has a great time. Every single dish we ordered was cooked to perfection. We ordered Pineapple Fried Rice, Basil Fried Rice and Panang Curry with Chicken. Sticky Rice with Mango Dessert was the perfect way to end our meal. Here's the thing - we enjoyed it so much that we actually went back the very next day! How often does that happen? The second visit was just as amazing as the first. The consistency really impressed us. Zab Zab Thai definitely made our Monterey trip even more special. We fell in love with this beautiful town, and this restaurant was a big part of that experience. If you are in Monterey, do yourself a favour and check out Zab Zab Thai. Highly, highly recommended!
We went for dinner right after opening time at 4:15pm and only one other group was there with us, but it was slowly getting crowded. The staff was overall very friendly and the service was very quick. We had two appetizers (fresh spring rolls and deep fried egg rolls), Thai iced tea, two main courses (Panang curry with Tofu and basil fried rice with Tofu) and sticky mango rice for dessert. All the dishes were very tasty and well prepared. We particularly enjoyed the curry. We will definitely be back to try more dishes from the menu.
We arrived at this restaurant around 6:30pm, and there were plenty of parking, which is a plus. The restaurant location is perfect. The patio is beautiful. Our party of 3 ordered 4 dishes: Pok Pok, Tom Yum Fire-pot with tofu, Pad Cashew with chicken and Pineapple Curry with Pork. All of them were delicious, especially the Pok Pok and curry. Service was top notch. Everyone was caring and attentive to our needs. We had a great experience at this restaurant.
This is so far the best Thai I had in and around sfo . The Thai basil fried rice was so good rich in flavour , the panang curry is a must try.We were here on a Saturday night and the place was really busy , will definitely recommend to reserve ahead . Small cute place with authentic taste . The serving needs to be little more accommodating during the weekends , an amazing place and must visit Thai place .
I went to this place for their Thai food. I got the bento 🍱 box. It was good! The best part was the pork! But and there is a big BUT! Their pad Thai was horrible! A Thai restaurant should always be on point with Pad Thai. I have had Pad Thai from many places but this place I would not recommend ordering it. The pork on the other hand was fantastic, it was seasoned just right and most other people were also ordering the pork! I would highly recommend the pork here.
Cute, cozy, no-frills Thai restaurant with a super friendly staff and all your favorite classics dishes cooked to perfection. I visited Zab Zab for dinner after a long day of exploring the Monterey Bay Aquarium, so we were absolutely famished. We tried their tom yum soup, cashew stir fry, mango coco curry, and pad see ew, all of which were delightful. The tom yum was refreshing and creamy, with a great balance of coconut milk and spice. It had a generous portion of veggies and tofu, and the fire pot it was served in was super fun. My second favorite had to be the mango coco curry — it was refreshing and fruity, yet perfectly savory and slightly spicy. It was a bit sweet from the fruit, but that helped balance out the other spices and flavors. The shrimp was tender, and I loved the chunks of mango inside. You also can never go wrong with a good cashew stir fry or pad see ew — all of them were cooked well and tasty. I do think the pad see ew and, across a few dishes, the tofu could have used a tiny bit more seasoning, but it was still solid.
Centrally located, near Cannery Row, with a well manicured entryway! This is a tiny restaurant, so it may not accommodate large groups. Service was quick and courteous, but the food- both the spring rolls and green curry- bland. The sticky rice with mango was the clear winner. The green colored rice was unusual, but made for a pretty presentation!
Papaya salad... 3/5 stars...they use a Pre-made dressing, not real lime. No flavor just sour and sweet Beef namtok...1/5 stars..not flavor. They use pre sliced thick beef strips. No flavor. Again they use the same dressing at the papaya salad. Pad thai 4/5 stars.. very good but the noodles were not soft. Won't come back.
Portion is small, Taste is just so so. Overprice. For someone that has tasted many Thai restaurant, this restaurant is letdown. This restaurant can only survive in Monterey area. There is no way they can survive in LA food scene. Steak just so so portion small the sauce is okay. Worst version of Salmon Cho Chee, i think my wife made a better version. Pad See Ew is okay nothing to rave about. Fried Tofu appetizer has only 6 small pieces for $10. Massamun Beef Curry is okay. Pad Ka Prow is average at best. Nothing really is special about the food here.
Worst Thai restaurant I’ve ever been to. It took forever to place our order even though the restaurant was very quiet with only a few tables occupied. The portions were small, and the food was extremely salty and overly sweet—the worst Thai food I’ve had. After taking our order, the servers never came back to check on us. We had to go to the register near the entrance ourselves to ask for the bill. When we paid and left, no one said thank you or even acknowledged us, which is very unusual compared to most restaurants. Afterward, I saw reviews mentioning cockroaches in the food, and if I had seen those earlier, I would never have come. My dish also had something stuck on it and looked dirty. They even charge an extra fee for paying with a credit card. Not even worth one star.
Trashy servers. I called before going there to check if they take walk ins. The lady on the phone said yes. I got there and both the servers at the reception didNOT bat an eye. I stood there for 5 minutes when they were attending other people but not me. I then approached one of the ladies and she looked at me and said “wait a second” OH EXCUSE YOU. Then finally I got handed the menu and was told to sit wherever, I chose outside. There were three tables remaining. One was secluded. I wanted to go to the other table in the corner but a server was cleaning it up. He asks while I approach the secluded chair “seating there?” I point to the one he is cleaning and said “Oh maybe there😄” Tell me why this man yells at me and says “Not here” with an ugly stank face!!!!??????? I would AVOID this place overall. Entitled servers with the attitude of literal royalties . Mid food . Basil rice was oily and hardly edible, egg rolls I ordered had 162829 cilantro leaves. I am not a cow, next.
Rating: 0/5 I was really looking forward to trying this Thai restaurant, but unfortunately, my experience was ruined. I ordered Thai fried rice with chicken, and to my horror, I found a roach in my food. It was completely unexpected and disappointing. I brought it to the attention of the staff, but their response was underwhelming, and I felt that the seriousness of the situation wasn’t fully acknowledged. Cleanliness should be a top priority in any restaurant, and this experience made me question the standards here. I hope they take this issue seriously and improve their sanitation practices. Until then, I can’t recommend this place to anyone.
