Thai House Barn - Alameda

Edit: I think they closed : Alameda has many, many Thai restaurants. I think I've finally tried them all. Thai House Barn is similarly priced to the other places, but the portions are definitely bigger, so I always feel like I'm getting a good deal. Also, the food has been very fresh and pretty tasty. Decor is okay, but besides that, what's not to like? I think I'll stick to this place for Thai for the foreseeable future!

Beautiful presentation and fair price. It was pretty good, the rice could have been a bit more separated, some pieces clumped together but other than that it was delicious. I came in the mid afternoon hardly anybody, nice guy working in the place, we chatted.

Service was HORRIBLE. I walk in, say hello. The man who's EATING in the back sees me and ignores me. I say hello again about 5 minutes later after he finished eating, he finally comes to me and I tell him I'm here for pick up. He says give me one second. I'm assuming he's just making me drink and everything else is ready. NO. I accidentally ordered iced coffee, I explain in exchange for the correct order which was the same price. He says too bad. THEN GOES TO ACTUALLY FIX MY ORDER WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE READY. I made my order at 2pm, wasn't ready til 2:45. This man didn't hand me my food til 3:15 and guess what my rice IS ICE COLD. WTF AND YOU HAVE THE AUDACITY TO ACT ENTITLED LIKE I OWE YOU SOMETHING? IM PAYING YOU IDIOT. NO SURPRISE I DIDNT TIP YOU DONT DESERVE IT. please don't waste your time and money here.

Best curry I've had in the bay! They were patient and very accommodating when I called to ask about vegan options and I appreciated the vegan labeling on the website menu. Yay for fresh rolls and Thai iced tea with soy milk--I'll be back!

Got to love when you find a Thai spot that is not only delicious, but gives huge portion as well! We ordered the Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mao and it was enough for dinner and lunch the very next day. The Pad Thai was flavorful. The Pad Kee Mao had a kick to it and the strong flavors were addicting. I'll definitely be ordering more from this place in the future.
