" Our visit was quite good! The outdoor atmosphere is truly lovely, surrounded by nature. I ordered the curry chicken, and while the flavor was decent, I think I expected bolder spices like in Thailand. My partner had the sesame tofu and raved about it, so it appears the dishes can vary in quality. Service was accommodating, and overall we had a pleasant evening, just not quite as spicy or bold as I hoped. " (*Curated Review*)

" Turmeric Thai Garden is an adorable restaurant with a charming vibe! I’ve returned a few times now and the food quality remains consistent. I particularly love the Panang curry; it’s one of the best I've had! It's filling and rich. The only downside is during peak times, the wait can be quite long, but I believe it’s worth it for the food. The servers are usually quite friendly and attentive, though they can be spread thin when busy, which might cause slowness. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found the Turmeric Thai Garden while biking around and thought I’d give it a try. The atmosphere is beautiful, filled with enchanted decor suitable for casual dining. My experience with the basil eggplant was satisfying; it had a great flavor profile. The service was a bit sluggish, but the friendliness of the workers made up for it. I appreciate their willingness to adjust spice levels to cater to various palates. All in all, I left feeling positive about my time here. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my go-to Thai place now! The food is consistently excellent and the selection is great. I’m particularly fond of the yellow curry and spring rolls. The outdoor seating adds to the overall experience with beautiful surroundings. While busy nights do come with longer wait times, the staff has always been friendly and accommodating. I appreciate how they allow you to custom tailor your spice level, making every visit a true joy! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I tried this restaurant yesterday after hearing so many good things about it. The location is a bit tricky to find, but once you're there, you will be in for a treat! The ambiance is lovely and perfect for a laid-back meal. We ordered the spicy basil beef and had a side of summer rolls. While the basil beef was a bit too greasy for my taste, it was beautifully seasoned. The summer rolls were fresh and vibrant. Service was nice, and I appreciate how they let us choose our spice level. A good experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Turmeric Thai Garden has a lovely atmosphere with its quaint outdoor space, but my food experience was a bit hit or miss. The calamari was tender, but the curry I ordered had a slightly bland flavor. I was particularly impressed with the portions, staying adequately filled without excessive leftovers. Service was prompt and the staff was friendly but seemed overwhelmed as the restaurant got busy. I enjoyed the experience overall, but I think the food needs refinement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Turmeric Thai Garden brings back memories of my trips to Thailand with its authentic and vibrant flavors. I love the Tom Kha soup - it's a bowl of comforting goodness! The outdoor seating adds to the charm, but I’m wary that it gets crowded during peak hours. My only complaint would be the slow service during busy times, yet the staff is always friendly and accommodating. Definitely one of the best spots in La Jolla for anyone looking for a slice of authentic Thai cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
