Questions we hear a lot
Are you the same restaurant as Thai Gulf?
In a way — we bought Thai Gulf, then rebuilt it as our own. Same address on Beach Boulevard, new name, new habits: three siblings in the kitchen, curry pastes started in a granite mortar, every plate cooked when you order it. If you got here looking for Thai Gulf — welcome back. The table is still here. Read the whole story.
Do you take reservations?
Yes — request a table and we’ll confirm within a few hours, or call (714) 378-6003. Walk-ins are always welcome too.
Do you do takeout and delivery?
Both. Order pickup online and it’s ready hot on Beach Blvd, or get delivery through DoorDash — everything is on the order page.
What are your hours?
Open every day: Mon–Fri 11:30 AM–10 PM · Sat–Sun 12–10 PM. Weekday lunch specials run Mon–Fri 11:30 AM–3 PM.
Do you have lunch specials?
Yes — Monday through Friday, 11:30 AM to 3 PM, lunch specials start at $12.99: Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Pad Kee Mao, Krapow, Garlic & Pepper, Cashew, Mixed Vegetables, or a Yellow or Panang curry. Every lunch comes with a fresh salad and a crispy spring roll, plus a cup of soup when you dine in. Call (714) 378-6003 ahead for pickup.
How spicy is the food?
As spicy as you ask. Every dish is cooked to order, so you set the heat — mild, medium, spicy, or Thai hot. Not sure? Start medium. We’d rather you come back tomorrow than sweat through tonight.
Can you cook vegetarian? What about allergies?
Many dishes can be made vegetarian — just ask. Eating gluten-free? Tell us when you order and we’ll point you to the rice-based plates that can be cooked without soy sauce or wheat that day. And always tell us about an allergy when you order: we cook each plate fresh, but our kitchen works with peanuts, shellfish, egg, soy, and wheat every day, so we can’t promise zero cross-contact.
What should we order first?
The plates people ask about most: Super Crab Fried Rice, Narwhal Chicken Wings, OG Pad Thai, Panang Curry and the Fried Whole Pompano for the table. Order a curry and a wok dish to share, and save room for dessert.
What should we order for dessert?
Mango Sticky Rice is the one we’d send you home with — warm coconut sticky rice, ripe mango, a whisper of salt. The Coconut Ice Cream & Bread is the Bangkok street classic, and the Narwhal Sundae is built for sharing.
Where exactly are you?
19072 Beach Blvd, Suite A & B, Huntington Beach — in the plaza on Beach Boulevard at Garfield Avenue. Get directions.
Is there parking?
Yes, and it’s free — park in the plaza lot right in front of the restaurant. If the lot is busy, there’s free street parking nearby too. Coming from Fountain Valley or Westminster? We’re about 8 and 12 minutes away.
Do you cater events?
We do — off-site catering, family-style tastings, and full buyouts. Tell us about your event.
