9 Best Thai Restaurants near Cathedral City

“We live in Cathedral City and Bangkok Noodles is our favorite Thai restaurant in the Coachella Valley. Always fresh and delicious, and wonderful friendly staff.😊👍 Four out of five stars..“

“My husband and I went here for dinner. Absolutely fabulous food. Cooked to perfection. Very friendly and welcoming servers. We will definitely come back again.“

“Easy to customize and select “vegan”. The fresh rolls with tofu were substantial and yummy. Pineapple in the curry was fresh (not canned) and a perfect compliment to the tofu. The sauces were unique and just the right level of spice (we picked “2”). The brown rice was also nutty and fresh! Updated from previous review on 2026-07-19“

“The best Thai food in town !“

“I’m so thrilled to have found this place. Most authentic Thai food restaurant in the valley. They even had one of my most favorite dishes from Northern Thailand, called Khao Soi. Oh and if you order the Phad se ew, have it with the crispy pork as the protein.“

“Absolutely delicious Thai food with truly authentic flavors!
The dishes taste just like real Thai cuisine—rich, well-balanced, and full of flavor. Everything was fresh and perfectly cooked.

I ordered delivery and the food arrived well-packaged and still hot, but pickup is also very convenient. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Thai food in Palm Springs. Will definitely order again!“

“Delicious food..love the mango with blue sticky rice“

“We enjoyed 2 appetizers, Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce, and Dumplings. Chicken was nice and moist. Dumplings plump and delicious. One diner had Beef Fried Rice w/o Bean Sprouts. He gave that a 7/10. I had the Pad Thai with 2 Shrimp and Chicken. unfortunately the sauce had a fishy flavor I don't recall it having before. And, the chicken looked good but was dry. 4/10. Service excellent and very pleasant. Our bill for 2 was $60 plus tip.“

“Thai Smile is hands-down one of the best spots in Palm Springs for authentic, flavorful Thai food. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the kitchen consistently knocks it out of the park.
​If you visit, you absolutely have to try the Pineapple Fried Rice. It is the perfect balance of savory and sweet, packed with flavor, and beautifully presented. It’s easily a standout dish on an already stellar menu. Pair your meal with their Thai Iced Tea, which is perfectly brewed, rich, , and just the right amount of sweet (the tea is complimentary/free) to complement the spices in the food. I order it everytime I visit!

​Whether you are looking for a casual dinner or a great takeout spot, Thai Smile never disappoints. Highly recommended!“
