20 Best Thai Restaurants in Berkeley

“So love this place! Food extremely fresh. First recommended and ordered by another, I sought it out again for lunch. Delightful. Took unused veggies and rice home which was great the next day.“

“Authentic fresh ingredients/spices, excellent customer services and now my fav thai restaurant ! If you haven’t tried it do so soon😋“

“wonderful owners. good concept.“

“Loved the decor and the vibe，great place to hang out with friends.The food was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot on.If you're in the area, this place is a must-try!“

“Oh how I miss Anchalee! Beautiful cozy decor and the food is amazing. I have great memories of this place. Time to make my way back to enjoy.“

“The cashew nut entree with chicken, I had three bites of my wife’s food and the first bite of chicken was the best tasting piece of chicken I’ve ever had in my life. Not hyperbole— just that I bit into it and my first thought was “ohh wow, I’ve never had a better piece of chicken.” Just perfectly seasoned.

My go to order at Thai restaurants is the green curry. The green curry at this restaurant happens to be better than any other I’ve tried to date.

I would strongly suggest going out of your way to eat here. If you’re a local and you haven’t had a chance to try this place, make it a priority to change that fact.“

“Had lunch there with a friend a few days ago.
This restaurant has wonderful Thai food, excellent fresh ingredients and friendly service.
The one thing I wish they would change, are those awful metal trays in which they serve the lunch special!!
They are inconvenient to eat from them. Hard to scoop the soup from the indentation. Too bad they changed from using regular plates to those metal trays.
Hope new owners reconsider and go back to plates.
All their wonderful food looses it's appeal when served in those metal trays.“

“My family loves Bangkok Thai. The yellow pumpkin curry is delicious, as are the salads, pad Thai, pad see-ew, fried rice, spring rolls, and fried banana with coconut ice cream for dessert. It’s a great place to celebrate a special occasion or just to gather with friends. We will be back soon. 💜❤️💚“

“I usually order the basil chicken or the green curries but everything is good there. Be careful if you request spicy, mom in kitchen will think you want it “Thai spicy” if you don’t elaborate. Thai spicy dropped me and I love spicy. 😂“

“My son and I were the first customers of the day and we were greeted so pleasantly as well as asked immediately if we’d like to see all the specials I love this place and frequent it often It never disappoints , the food was delicious and served promptly...I recommend it to anyone“

“My favorite is Su Kho Thai...A hot and sour soup base with rice noodles, ground pork, pork, crispies. Great for a cold day like today.“

“With a kitchen that's operating with the precision of a clock, the noodle Thai restaurant serves combo noodle plates and more packed with flavor all for low prices. The staff is really nice, the food is fresh and tasty, and I'm glad this place is here now that Bangkok noodle that was down the block closed.
Highly recommended!“

“Me and my co - workers loved the food that we ordered. We definitely come back and recommend“

“While staying across the road at the Mariott, I decided to walk around the shopping center and stumbled upon Tha Siam. I pulled up their website while standing outside, and looked at the "Chef's Suggestions" list. I thought the Grilled Short Rib with Garlic Noodle dish sounded good, so I went for it. Everyone inside was extremely friendly to me and polite while I placed my order and waited for a short while. I like my food spicy, but I forgot to say anything about wanting extra heat while ordering. The gentleman at the register said he could include hot sauces for me, and I thanked him. I got my food to go as I planned to walk back to the hotel to eat, but when I opened it 5 minutes later in my room I was not disappointed. The meal was beautifully put together, and it was delicious. I squeezed the orange over the marinated beef, and I added the extra hot sauces: fantastic! I highly recommend trying Tha Siam if you are in the area.“

“I love the noodle soups here, especially Tom yum and Kao soy, and the stir fried dishes, especially Pad kee mao! I like the fact that they're not overly sweet and spicier than what I typically have at Thai restaurants in the Bay, which is great. I wish spice level can be higher, but my friend disagrees so could be just me.“

“I saw someome make a TikTok about this place and immediately knew I had to add that to my list. I headed out to Berkeley on a Friday morning to try it out and I bought a friend who isnt a big fan of Thai and or Asian food. I was thankful to experience this style of northern Thai cuisine I believe the order Tanzie referred to it as. The hospitality and service was above average. I enjoyed all of my food and so did my friend. The pork jowl was agreed to be are favorite out of the all the dishes we tried. Very juicy , flavorful and just all around deliscious topped off with that crispy fried garlic. The brown rice over that soft scrambled "lava egg" was to die for paired with the savory tomato based minced pork that I ordered extra spicy of course. The star of the show that me and my friend both agreed on had to be the "prik nam pla" which I would describe as a sweet and spicy vinegar or fish sauce based dipping sauce accompanied by a nice punch of spice from the thai chili peppers. I dont have any complaints whatsoever and I will definitely be back.“

“old skool cool. i've had many a meal here. it's probably responsible for how much i weigh after college.......actually i went here even more after graduating. everything is good. in particular pepper garlic chicken and basil eggplant chicken are two tasty standouts. good pad thai and pad see ew too. thankfully i work a little farther away from campus now, so i can't go here too often....but maybe i'll go again...“

“Eat at Thai has always been a go to on DoorDash for me, but the other day after a Berkeley graduation I went in at 11 pm. I was seated right away and catered to immediately. The food was so good and fresh even for the time of night. The staff at that time was ran by just 1 woman who I saw was balancing the DoorDash orders and hosting 4 other tables as well. She made sure that everyone was refilled and satisfied while not having dashers wait either. Eat at Thai will always be a place I will be a customer at.“

“My food was absolutely amazing I’m from Rochester New York“

“We hired Thai Rice Spoon Catering to provide 2 meals during a 4-day family/friends gathering, and it has been a wonderful experience. In the time leading to the event, communication with Tumi has been prompt, and she has been very helpful in providing suggestions on the types of dishes and amounts to order, especially in the setting of some of the guests' dietary restrictions. Tumi has also been very understanding in suggesting different options on how to stay within budget.

Regarding the food delivery, it was delivered early and displayed beautifully with the chafing dishes and sterno fuel. We were then given instructions on how to serve them.

The food itself was delicious and a favorite of many of the guests. Overall, we would definitely hire Thai Rice Spoon Catering again in the future if the need arises. Highly recommend!“
