Our Mission
Our mission at 55 Thai Kitchen is to help the communities that we’ve become a part of. We believe that giving back should start locally and we have made that a top priority through school donations, discounts for students, first responders, and military service members.
Our motto ‘Thai Food For the Community’ serves as a reminder to give back and we pledge to keep our Thai food affordable, healthy, & creative for all to enjoy.

Our Story
Why we do what we do:
Our Story
Why we do what we do:
The story of 55 Thai Kitchen begins with our Head Chef, Vijit Pipatkhajonchai or “Jit” for short. His family owned a restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand where he worked since he was only 15 years old. It was there that he began to develop his palate and love for cooking. 25 years and 9 different restaurants later of mastering his craft, Jit created 55 Thai Kitchen with our first location in the back of a liquor store in Golden Hill. What began as a passion project quickly grew into the restaurants that are open now.
Since its inception, 55’s mission has been to give back to the San Diego community and the underprivileged youth in Thailand; that’s the meaning behind our motto “Thai Food for the Community”. We’ll always work hard to provide San Diego with high-quality Thai food, while still being affordable. Thanks for reading!

We believe in consistency at 55 Thai Kitchen. The meals prepared at our restaurants reflect our core values: provide the very best Thai food while remaining affordable to all in the community. We've sourced all fresh ingredients and cook them to perfection with recipes that have been cultivated for over 45 years in our head chef’s family.
Our House Special for example, a Massaman Chicken Curry, is always made from scratch in order to give our customers a fresh and authentic experience. One could say this is the only Massaman Curry that doesn't come from a paste in all of San Diego.
