Take It Easy 351 17th Street, Oakland, CA 94612

"Really good Thai food at an unbeatable price! The owner is also really nice. Wish that they opened on weekends though so that I can visit more often. They also accept credit card now."

"This place seems a bit off. Their Pad See Ew tastes quite different (a bit tangy) compared to other Thai places I've tried. I guess I'm used to dark soy rather than the light soy they use. The good thing they have going is that their menu prices are relatively cheap when compared to the surrounding restaurants. I'll try different food next time to see if it's better."

"Take it Easy has apparently recently raised prices, as the price for Coconut Curry Chicken is different from the photos posted; $10.00 versus $9.00. Also be aware that Take it Easy is CASH ONLY; credit cards NOT accepted; good thing my lunch companion had cash, because I did not; so bring your cash! So lunch was awkward b/c I offered to pay. But my Chicken Curry was delicious, & my lunch buddy ate all of his Seafood Curry."

"I was in a hurry during my lunch break last week. FYI cash only, there’s an atm at the market across the street. The man who greeted me was Thai and very nice. You order/pay at the counter before sitting down. The food came out within 5 or so minutes. I ordered the Beef Rad Na, my trusty taste test to see if the food is good and it was amazing. I mean you can’t go wrong with Fresh broccoli cooked to perfection, beef seared in a wok just the way you want it and the black sweet soy sauce was oh SOoo delicious Mmmm. I will definitely be back."

"Went with a group for lunch. From the outside it makes you wonder, but one we got our food all doubts evaporated. You place an order from their extensive menu at the countertop by the entrance. We got a table and each of us got a number that eventually was replaced by the meal. The kitchen is small anf only two dishes cane out at a time. Piping hot and very large portions appear to be the norm here. Coupled with relatively low prices makes this a good lunch spot. Flavors were good, but not exceptional. If they allowed for credit card payments, i would give this place a 5 star rating!"
