Thai This, operating as the Blue Dolphin, is known for its pool tables and surprisingly good, affordable food, especially the noodles and fried rice. However, some customers report issues with rude service, particularly from the bartender/owner, and inconsistent ID policies.
Tip: The upstairs area offers a quieter atmosphere for pool. Be aware that the bar can get packed on weekends. Some reviewers suggest the noodles and fried rice.

The shrimp scampi pizza is amazing! Big and plenty shrimp. I always get cheesecake every time I visit. Good noodles and fried rice too. Fantastic pool tables. More than 16 fullsize and 4 or more 7-footers.
The Blue Dolphin offers great food, wonderful noodles, a place where you can actually relax, and feel safe while getting a couple of games of pool in. Check out the upstairs to experience a little bit quieter time. Did I mention they have great food? LOL have fun!
Very clean clean! All new pool tables on top and bottom levels. The chicken fried rice is great! Doesn't look like much on the outside but worth the visit for billards

I’m in a pool league and we played at the Blue Dolphin. This place has plenty of parking and all the tables are in very good condition. They have big tables and also small bar room sized tables. The owner is always behind the bar and he very friendly and will make you good drinks. They also have very good food here. I highly recommend the Blue Dolphin.
The owner is a friend that I have known for many years. He works his tail off maintaining the place and to bring a nice environment where we can talk and shoot pool. The drinks are great and so is the food.
Best Bar in Dana Point hands down. The owner is super cool. The vibes are great. Feels like home. There’s a tonnn of pool tables. This place is packed on the weekends but it makes it that much better. 10/10 recommend! & not only that, but the foooood OMGGGGG it’s soooooo good. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Especially when ur drunk it’s still soooo dank. Anyway, I will forever stand on this being my favorite bar. 🩷 Thanks for being the best!
Great place to shoot some stick !! The guy behind the bar is pretty cool too !!! Yea man, you’re alright
Really good food for a place to play billiards, specially the noodle and fried rice, super reasonable pricing also, Poaw at the bar is fast and effective.

I thought I lost my phone, but it wasn’t lost. The staff excited honesty.

Best food in town! Great spot to shot some pool with friends and family. 21 and up so no kids to trip over. 🤙

It was a good place to play a few games of pool. The juke box was nice. The restrooms were clean. Parking was great free lot. Inside is painted in a Miami vice purple and aqua paint with dark blinds. The place is dark inside. Only the light over the pool table is use were on. They have lottery machine kiosk and paper slips there. We will return to play again.

I’m from out of state and I play at a high level. Tables are straight but house cues are well used, table felt was well used and filthy dirty, but no holes or rips. 6 racks in and my bridge hand fingers were black. I don't think the balls have ever been polished. Staff and patrons friendly. Overall disappointing.

Played here last night and had a fun time. Came back tonight and he (same owner id anssume) asked for all of our ID’s again and rejected my younger sister who recently turned 21. Said, “She looks young and we don’t need your business”. We offered to bring the cops to verify and he said, “we don’t need them here”. Sketchy…
This is a TERRIBLE establishment! Walked into to the place and my boyfriend took a photo…the owner proceeded to freak out and demand to LOOK through my boyfriend’s photos and have him delete the one picture he took. He claimed we were taking photos of “clients” which is a weird thing to call your customers. The waitress there also looked about 16 years old, despite her clearly serving alcohol to adults. Outside of this, the place was dirty, gross, and generally unpleasant.
Cool concept, terrible terrible service from the bartender. I don’t know how this man gets away with treating the PAYING customers that way. Such a shame since we went out for a night out to celebrate my husbands birthday. So many things went wrong the moment we got there. We didn’t finish our drinks that we ordered because we didn’t want to sit in this establishment any longer.
There were several of us from out of state visiting friends here in OC on vacation, bartender refused to serve us or even allow us to play any pool because we are visiting from out of state. They said that they had let in underage customers and got busted for allowing fake IDs, and therefore can no longer allow legal, of age patrons in simply because they are not from California.
If I could give this place zero stars I would. I came in here for the first time with friends tonight and waited at the bar for 25 minutes, it was not even busy. The bartender acted like we were invisible and took other peoples orders that arrived there after us. We finally ordered and got our drinks. We ordered a pitcher of beers and was not given any glasses to pour it into. One of our cards did not work because it had a crack in it, we handed him another card and when he was done with the transaction he freaked out and yelled at us, literally screamed in our face as loud as he could. So unprofessional and rude. I am a bartender myself and would never ever do that to someone, how embarrassing. Do NOT go to this place.
Bartender said he doesn’t accept VA licenses ??? Bar was empty and we were a group of 7 people ready to have a good night I saw other horrible reviews about him so just wanted to add one more 👍🏾👍🏾
Owner was incredibly rude, didn’t even want to stick around to order a drink, servers looked suspiciously young
Literally trash we walked in visiting from Virginia and he was like sorry we don’t take Virginia licenses. Super rude and disrespectful. Never come here
If I could give zero stars, I would. The Blue Dolphin has the absolute worst service I’ve ever experienced in my entire life. From the moment I walked in, I felt judged, unwelcome, and outright disliked. The atmosphere is cold, and the staff somehow make it colder. The person who answers the phone? Easily one of the rudest, most unprofessional individuals I’ve ever encountered. They clearly have no business working in hospitality and should be fired immediately. It’s baffling how a place that calls itself a restaurant/bar can function with this level of disrespect toward its customers. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy. Save your time, your money, and your patience go literally anywhere else.

# Thai This: Un Viaje Culinario a Tailandia en el Corazón de Dana Point
Dana Point, una joya costera en el sur de California, es sinónimo de playas idílicas, un puerto vibrante y un estilo de vida relajado y sofisticado. Entre sus encantos, la escena culinaria emerge como un atractivo más, ofreciendo una diversa paleta de sabores para residentes y visitantes. En este escenario, restaurantes como Thai This, ubicado estratégicamente en la Pacific Coast Highway, se convierten en paradas obligatorias para quienes buscan una experiencia gastronómica que trascienda lo común y transporte los sentidos a tierras lejanas.
Thai This no es solo un restaurante; es una invitación a explorar la riqueza y complejidad de la cocina tailandesa, una de las gastronomías más celebradas del mundo. En un lugar tan emblemático como Dana Point, donde la brisa marina se mezcla con el ambiente de una comunidad activa y consciente de su bienestar, la propuesta de sabores auténticos de Tailandia encuentra un hogar perfecto.
Para comprender el atractivo de Thai This, es fundamental sumergirse en la filosofía culinaria de Tailandia. La cocina tailandesa es un arte que busca el equilibrio perfecto entre cinco sabores fundamentales: dulce, agrio, salado, amargo y picante. Esta armonía se logra a través de una meticulosa selección de ingredientes frescos y aromáticos, que incluyen hierbas exóticas, especias vibrantes y productos locales que definen cada plato.
Ingredientes como la hierba limón (lemongrass), la galanga, las hojas de lima kaffir, el chile, el ajo, el cilantro y la salsa de pescado son pilares en la despensa tailandesa. La leche de coco, cremosa y dulce, es la base de muchos de sus curries y postres, mientras que el arroz jazmín, fragante y suave, es el acompañamiento indispensable para casi todas las comidas.
La diversidad regional es otra característica distintiva. La cocina del norte de Tailandia, influenciada por sus vecinos Laos y Myanmar, tiende a ser menos picante y más terrosa, con platos como el Khao Soi (sopa de fideos con curry). El noreste, o Isaan, es famoso por sus sabores audaces y muy picantes, con ensaladas de papaya verde (Som Tum) y carnes a la parrilla. La cocina central, la más conocida internacionalmente, ofrece clásicos como el Pad Thai y el Tom Yum Goong. Finalmente, el sur, con su proximidad al mar y sus influencias malayas, utiliza mucho marisco y curries más intensos.
Un restaurante como Thai This, ubicado en un punto de encuentro cultural como Dana Point, tiene la oportunidad de presentar esta riqueza, ofreciendo a sus comensales un abanico de opciones que van desde los platos más icónicos hasta quizás algunas joyas menos conocidas, siempre con el sello de la autenticidad.
La ubicación de Thai This en la Pacific Coast Highway no es casualidad. Esta icónica carretera, que serpentea a lo largo de la costa de California, es un epicentro de actividad, conectando comunidades y ofreciendo vistas espectaculares del Pacífico. Estar en PCH significa accesibilidad y visibilidad, pero también la responsabilidad de complementar el entorno con una propuesta de calidad.
Un restaurante tailandés en este enclave ofrece una pausa refrescante y exótica. Después de un día explorando el puerto de Dana Point, disfrutando de las olas en Doheny State Beach o simplemente paseando por los acantilados, la promesa de una comida llena de sabor y confort es irresistible.
Aunque no disponemos de detalles específicos sobre el interior de Thai This, un establecimiento de este tipo en Dana Point probablemente buscaría fusionar la calidez y el misticismo de la cultura tailandesa con la elegancia relajada de la costa californiana. Esto podría traducirse en una decoración que incorpore elementos tradicionales tailandeses –madera tallada, sedas, obras de arte que evoquen paisajes de Tailandia–, combinados con una paleta de colores suaves y una iluminación que cree un ambiente acogedor y a la vez sofisticado. La posibilidad de cenar al aire libre, aprovechando el clima templado de Dana Point y la cercanía a la brisa marina, sería un plus indudable.
En Thai This, la experiencia va más allá de la simple degustación de platos. Es un viaje sensorial. Al entrar, uno podría ser recibido por los aromas característicos de la cocina tailandesa: el dulzor del coco, la frescura de la hierba limón, el picante sutil del chile. El personal, reflejando la famosa hospitalidad tailandesa conocida como "jai dee" (buen corazón), buscaría asegurar que cada comensal se sienta bienvenido y atendido, guiándolos a través del menú y ayudándolos a personalizar su experiencia, ajustando los niveles de picante o sugiriendo maridajes.
Si bien no podemos listar platos específicos, podemos imaginar una carta que incluya los pilares de la cocina tailandesa:
La frescura de los ingredientes sería una prioridad, y la preparación, realizada por chefs que dominan las técnicas y sabores tradicionales, garantizaría una autenticidad que transporta directamente a las calles de Bangkok o a las playas de Phuket.
Dana Point no es solo un telón de fondo para Thai This; es una parte integral de su identidad. Esta ciudad costera, con una población que valora la calidad de vida, el acceso a la naturaleza y una comunidad vibrante, ofrece el ambiente ideal para un restaurante que busca ofrecer algo más que comida.

Su puerto, el Dana Point Harbor, es un centro de actividad con tiendas, restaurantes, excursiones de avistamiento de ballenas y deportes acuáticos.

La gente aquí disfruta de un estilo de vida activo, con surf, senderismo, ciclismo y navegación como pasatiempos populares. También aprecian la buena comida y las experiencias culturales, lo que hace que un restaurante tailandés auténtico y de calidad sea una adición bienvenida y valorada.
Thai This, al estar en Pacific Coast Highway, se beneficia de la afluencia de turistas que exploran la costa, así como de la lealtad de los residentes locales que buscan opciones gastronómicas diversas y de alta calidad. Es el tipo de lugar donde uno puede disfrutar de una cena íntima, una comida familiar o una reunión con amigos, siempre con la promesa de sabores memorables.
Un restaurante como Thai This en Dana Point no solo satisface el apetito; también enriquece el tejido cultural de la comunidad. Ofrece una ventana a una cultura diferente, promueve la diversidad gastronómica y se convierte en un punto de encuentro donde se comparten historias y se crean recuerdos.
En el contexto de Dana Point, conocido por sus festivales, sus mercados de agricultores y su énfasis en la vida comunitaria, Thai This puede participar activamente, quizás ofreciendo especialidades estacionales con ingredientes locales o participando en eventos benéficos. La conexión con la comunidad es clave para el éxito a largo plazo de cualquier establecimiento en una ciudad con un sentido de pertenencia tan fuerte.
