We hold 2 prices from California Thai Cafe at 9550 Black Mountain Road, each for a dish other kitchens in San Diego also serve. Of those, 2 are under the typical San Diego price and 0 are over it. Added together the 2 plates come to $25.00 here against $30.50 at the typical price for each, so this kitchen is $5.50 cheaper across the same menu, which is 18% under.

Its best value is Calamari at $11.00, $4.50 under the $15.50 typical across the 20 kitchens serving it in San Diego. At the other end, Shrimp is $14.00 here.

This menu was read on 16 Oct 2026. A price is what the menu listed on that day, not a daily special, so California Thai Cafe may have changed it since.

Prices here are the ones we read from this restaurant's menu for dishes that enough other kitchens in San Diego also list, so they can be compared. It is not the whole menu. The typical price beside each one is the middle of every price we hold for that dish in San Diego. See how we read prices, or tell us one is wrong.
