Reviews

The food was so good. The Masaman short rib was amazing. Loved the Vella omelette too. Possibly the best brunch I have had so far in the bay.
Fariha R.
Everything was really good. Most of the Thai restaurants in the bay area are good, but vela definitely stood out & above your average Thai restaurant.
Paul N.
Delicious food and amazing service! Food came out quickly and they were super friendly. My favorites were the pad thai and nam khao.
Janet L.
The food is authentic, incredibly flavorful, and you can really taste the freshness in every dish. It’s so nice to finally have a go-to Thai restaurant nearby.

Absolutely loved this place! The Pad Thai was so delicious, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The owner was awesome and super welcoming.

We went there for lunch. Everything tasted amazing. Both the tamarind prawns and the VeLa Omelette were full of flavors. Highly recommended.
