Had an amazing lunch at ZabZab Thai Cuisine! The Panang Curry with Tofu, shrimp Shaomai, and sticky rice with mango were all delicious. The service was quick, and the ambience was lovely. Plus, there's parking in the back and street parking, which made it super convenient!
Pumpkin and pangnang Curries and eggplant salad are good but has fish sauce in it so keep that in mind. Flavors are authentic and they will adjust heat to dishes which is nice. Always a stop when in monterey.
It feels like you are eating authentic Thai food in Thailand. It is cute place on lighthouse street pretty close to cannery row. They have wheelchair access. It had both indoor and outdoor seating and a wonderful waiter Tong who is cheerful and always ready to vaccinated your wishes. We had vegetable Spring rolls, and vegetable stir fry with tofu. My husband ordered chicken satay., The taste and quantity was just right., Because I do not like sweet sticky rice, he substituted it with coconut ice cream without any issue. The sauce in the curry, the dip and the cream on the desert all tasted very different, fresh and authentic
I've been here before a few years ago and so happy to find Zab Zab is still in business and as delicious as ever! Everyone at the table loved their food. I had the lunch special with green curry and papaya salad. Came with a small soup, white rice, and a salad. Perfect portions filled me up and were absolutely delicious. And of course I had to get the Thai iced tea too! Small cute place with limited seating inside and some patio seating. Great service.
This food is amazing. Simple. Done right. Pad Thai, cubbed beef, pumpkin curry- amazing.
Went for dinner during Memorial Day weekend. The food was excellent, but the staff seemed unable to handle the crowd, felt very rushed and hard to get service. I would go back on a quieter day.
5/5 - chicken and curry was super flavorful and authentic - lunch special combo super worth it. - service was very good and all the staff were very nice and welcoming - Papaya salad and Thai soup were also tasty and felt fresh - unexpected to find such good and authentic Thai food in Monterey - mango sticky rice very delicious and filling, took me back to Bangkok - I will be back thanks
They're back!!! They actually reopened Christmas Day if I remember correctly. I know a lot of people missed them because the place was packed! Not to mention lots of people picking up their to-go orders. Tonight was a bit fast paced because of all the people wanting to eat in. But even with that we didn't feel rushed. We enjoyed our food at our own pace. Food is always delish! They're definitely at a different level! I don't even like ordering from ANY Thai restaurants because I feel like it's not going to be as enjoyable and will be a waste of money. Casual ambiance, clean, and good size restaurant. The staff are super pleasant and friendly! We love coming here for the food and energy! Say hi to Tong (I hope I spelled it right) when you come here!
