Menu

The menu of Pepper Xpress from Sunnyvale comprises about 43 different courses and drinks. On average you pay about $8.9 for a dish / drink.

A beloved Indo‑Nepali/Thai spot serving outstanding momos, chow mein and Thai classics like Pad See Ew and Tom Kha, prized for bold, authentic flavors and nostalgic comfort food. Friendly staff, occasional complimentary chai and late‑hour availability make it a popular to‑go and dine‑in choice, though peak times bring long waits and tight parking. Call ahead to pre‑order; they prefer cash but accept cards. Spice levels run very hot—order medium if sensitive.

Fantastic food and service! This is my favorite Thai restaurant in Cupertino, and I always make a point to visit whenever I'm in town. The Pad See Ew with chicken and the Tom Kha soup are my top choices. View all feedback.

The Thai food here is quite good. However, I share the sentiment of other reviewers regarding the service, which could definitely be improved. The staff are friendly, but they tend to spend too much time in the kitchen and are rarely present on the dining floor, making it difficult to get their attention. Also, be aware that their "Thai-spicy" option is extremely hot! I recommend sticking to medium spiciness if you're sensitive to heat.

The Tom Kha was rich and absolutely delicious. Everything I tried was fantastic and has definitely taken the place of my former favorite Thai restaurant in the area. I was initially thinking about going for Mediterranean food, but I'm so glad I found this place instead. I ordered the Lamb Basil with a spicy kick, and I was worried that the flavors might not blend well. I was completely mistaken— it was incredibly good! I also loved the Chinese sausage rice; it tasted even better the next morning when I reheated it in my hotel!

In my books, they still have the best Chicken Thai Basil! I have tried many other Thai restaurants, but no one can replace them so far! I love the variety of the soups they serve each day. Friendly staff. Nice ambiance Try to get there early enough especially lunch time during the week, parking can get full! Also, they do close at 2:30 p.m. If you are planning on dining in, you have to arrive by 2:15 pm. They are firm on that.

A place with years experienced cook in Nepalese and Indian food. A specific test that never go away and makes you pull over in the corner to fill your hunger. Great!
