Still consistsant. Not great but good for Benicia. Seen alotta crying on Yelp about this place and everyones got their own opinion. We order the same thing 95% of the time. One thing to note is that I have noticed my Yellow Curry Chicken getting a little skimpy. Maybe its the economy? Thats everyones scape goat at the moment :)

    I have been here a few more times since my original review and they still keep it consistant and good. Im glad they decided to stick w/ serving the fish chips or whatever those things are. So our usual is lookin like Yellow Chicken Curry, Chicken Pad see-eww, Chicken Satay, and Chicken Curry Fried Rice. Before sodas our bill would be about $35.

    Thanks Little Thai for never letting us down and being 10 x's better than the other place ;)

    Been here thrice now and once for take out. They are consistant. Not the best I have had but the food will satisfy any Thai cravings my family has w/o having to drive out of Benicia ;)

    Service is really good and they are always very kind to us. Language can be an obsticle at times but its something that once learns to deal w/ when eating at different ethnic places.

    Keep up the great work!!!

Watched New Moon last night. Loved how there was no crowd. Couches, chairs, tables, as well as tradtional theater seats w/ cup holders tripped me the hell out! Oh and they have a menu! First time I ever had a gourmet pizza in a movie. Popcorn sucked FYI.

Couches up front were comfy as can be but you have to sacrafice sitting so close and having your neck cranked for an entire show!

Plan to go back again soon and bring the kids along this time around.

Came in for the first time yesterday. Before this I had a taste of some left overs which was really good.

I was a little disapointed. The same dish I had at home was a bit bland today. Maybe they just arent consistant. Who knows. Im sure ill try it again if im in the area though.

They're worth another chance I guess.

Never really notice Elaina being gone till someone messaged me. I'll make sure to pay her a visit if im in Vallejo and need that spur of the moment I need it now haircut :)

Past couple months I have been getting clipped by Daisha or Naiomi. Both do an excellent job on my head and the shampoos they do are sooo worth it.

Just keep in mind that im a dude and my heair is simple to cut. I dont need a silly girly salon haircut and anytime I do those its a free $100 style because my mother in-law has had a shop in Diamond Heights SF for ovfer 20 years. Had to throw that in so yall Yelpers know I know WTF i talkin bout.

Only "girly" things I have done is a mani-pedi! LOL... why not? Its not gay, its called taken care of yourself folks LOL :)

    The only person here I can vouche for is Elaina. She is the only stylist that has touched my hair. I can walk in, not say a word and she will know excatly how to cut my hair. Only one other person can do that but shes all the way in Concord.

    I usually get your standard buzz and shampoo. The shampoo is an experience. Yes, for the SuperCuts here in Benicia it is a must!!! I wish it could last all day.

    Note: my hair isnt hard to cut. I take a #0 on the bottom and #3 on the top =)

Came in for lunch yesterday and I have no complaints. I had the Basil Chicken (edium hot) and ordered the Chicken Pad See Eww to go.

Basil Chicken was good and Basil just popped like they had just picked the damn things! I had a taste of the Pad See Eww and that was also good (at the time).

I got home about 5 hours later and gave my daughter the Pad See Eww I ordered for her and damn was it gross. I guess you just cant take home that dish from here. I had to throw it out. What a waste. This normally doesnt happen at other places so it had me wondering.

Had some left over chicken basil and it was just as good. Just only the medium hot turned into hot for some odd reason!

Stopped by on my way home to Benicia cause I was craving some food from the mother land.

Mmm... mmm... good is all I gotta say! I hate trying new places even after I have my spots for certain foods. A friend told me to try em'. Well, after today he's still my pren!

Had Caldereta (beef) and Pinakbet. Perfect in every way! A bit greasy compared to how we cook at home but actually less oily than alot of other places.

It was wierd to eat before I pay. I guess they had a peeling I was gonna like it so much I was going to order for go! Hahahaha... thats exactly what I did. I called my mother and since shes on my way home I thought to bring her some food. For take  out I took back some Caldereta, Chicken Tinola, and Pinakbet!!! I kindly dropped a $5 in the little tip jar because it was that damn good! I usually leave $1 in those little jars FYI.

For a long time I havent found a good place in this area for Filipino food. Finally... a place I can come when im in the area!

What to say, what to say, what to say!!! Came in yesterday 11/02/09 on the way home from The City and was craving some Mediterranean food. Couldnt wait to get to Benicia and I remember a few folks tellin me about this spot.

I had the Chicken Schwerma and Greek Salad w/ Fetta Cheese.

Im no expert w/ Mediterranean food (yet) but I have been to a few places! This place is well worth it! Now I know when im at Fry's I can come here for some good GRUB!!!

I would like to think I know a thing or two about Indian food since I frequent Naan n' Curry, Kanna Peena, ICO, etc...

Woke up in Oakly and my buddy said he wanted Indian. I didnt believe they had such a place out in the stix of Brentwood. He wanted me to verify if the place was legit.

Well... I have not complaints. Everything I had at the buffet was good. I had Chicken Curry, Chicken TIkka Masala, Tandori Chicken, and a few other items. Garlic Naan and Plain Naan was served. The Naan was just ok at best but totally doable.

Service was great!!! Buffet area was kept very clean and in order!

Now I know when im in the area I have a place for Indian food to go to!

WTF can I say! I have never, ever, ever, ever had Corned Beef Hash like this before!!! Had corned beef hash w/poached eggs and fried rice. Yes, fried rice damnit! That's the kicker in this breakfast is that I ordered it w/ fried rice as suggested by a friend. Nice job My!!!

The corned beef was made from a straight brisket. You rarely get that! I never have. Perfectly moist inside while the outer parts we're just kinda toasted like. A bit to much butter on my toast but that's an easy fix.

Waitress was prompt and checked on me a few times. Food was also fayst!

I went 20 mins. Outta my way to get here and it was 100% worth the drive from Benicia!!!

I loved it so much I'm writing this review from Babs right now!!!
