16 Best Thai Restaurants near Dana Point

“The service at Thai This is beyond compare, every employee there is friendly, helpful, and helps to create a great experience whether eating in to-go. We walked in to order to-go food and they seated us and brought us bottled water, again, service beyond compare. Now to the food, the Crispy Noodles (#1) are to die for...makes a great dessert. The Nutty Noodles chicken (#54) were great, and the Kiss Me Not garlic pork was so flavorful. They also included some tempura vegetables which were super yummy. So if you're looking for yummy food, at a great price, and with incredible service, Thai This should be your next dinner night out.“

“Best Thai food in South OC by far!! Not my first time here and I'm an avid Thai food eater. Their pad Thai is probably my favorite in Orange county, lots of sauce and great flavors. And their chicken is bomb in everything including the tom kah soup, which is also top 2 in my book of over 100 different Thai restaurants. Great service, they are nice and I can't say enough! Keep up the great work!“

“Thai Dara 2 is great! I went in today to order takeout for our medical office staff. I noticed a mistake when I picked up my food (likely poor communication on my part), and they fixed it very quickly and kindly. Above 5 stars on service! The food is fresh and delicious. The lunch specials are priced very well and are big portions. There are options for everyone's dietary restrictions, too, which is so great to find.

The interior of the restaurant is cozy and would be a great place for an intimate lunch or dinner.

I'm writing this as I gobble down my delicious pad Thai with shrimp, and I'm also very impressed at how well the food was packaged, it's still piping hot.“

“Great food and a great staff. This place has been in San Clemente for a very long time, and this restaurant has been a go-to for my friends and I for years.

I ordered x2 Orders of Panang Curry with Beef as meat and I requested to make the curry more spicy for the order just to see what it would be like. Verdict: It was excellent! The food was delicious and very nicely done. The staff was accommodating and welcoming when I showed up. For clarification, it was a pick up order at around 7:30 tonight (11/5/2025 Wednesday).

The place has a cozy atmosphere if you decide to dine at the restaurant. It is a little tight quarters but ultimately isn't a huge deal. Check out Thai Palace on Pico!“

“Wow. Fantastic. Having been to Thailand two times, traveling from Batong to Bangkok to Chiang Mai, the food at Thai Bros is as authentic as anything thing we have found stateside.
We traveled from Los Angeles to try this.
We had Green Curry, Thai Beef Salad, Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, Summer Rolls and Tom Yum. All excellent. The food was made fresh. Nothing had been pre-made. Spicy, crunchy, tangy and a little sweet. Classic Thai spice but not overwhelming.
It's hard to find fresh prepared Asian - this place is it.
Enjoy!!!!“

“My family orders from Diho Siam probably about once per week. Would absolutely be 5 stars as I love their food and the employees are super friendly, but it’s really disappointing how dramatically they’ve raised their prices (literally from last week to this week). Orange chicken went from $13 to $18 overnight, cream cheese wontons went from $9.50 to $12.50 etc. To raise prices so significantly really sucks for your customers.“

“Ahairn arroy mak ka!! Kob koon ka!!“

“Delicious food, great service and family own business. I try Tom yum noodle soup (Thai style). Yum!!!“

“This is a hidden gem that you initially think is a generic chain, but it isn't. There are only two locations and the flavors are out of this world. This took Thai from being a place I'd rather not eat at to being my #1 type of food. It's simply that insanely delicious. If you aren't sure what to get, try the Crying Tiger, it's my favorite. Their lunch special is very generous: soup, salad, huge pile of rice, veggies and meat for ~$15. I usually get a to-go container and have it for lunch again the next day, it's easily two portions.“

“Great time .. and the most amazing food .. dubble bubble shot is a must here never in my life anything like this .. but the best ohh and the cabbage wrap Thai style is the best“

“Absolutely loved my Tom Yum here! The broth was rich, perfectly balanced between spicy and sour, with fresh shrimp and herbs that made every spoonful delicious. The presentation in the hot pot kept it warm the whole time, and the cozy atmosphere made it even better. Great service and attention to detail — highly recommend this place!“

“The food was delicious! I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai lunch special, with extra peanuts, and they truly delivered in favor, texture and a boat load of peanuts! The salad dressing was also light and creamy and tasty. My server, Liberty, was helpful, friendly, and prompt. 10/10“

“I enjoyed the smoked spare ribs and the spicy stir fried prawns with veg Dessert was great too“

“This is one of the best Thai restaurants I have been to. The Drunken Noodle is always our top priority, SUPER DELICIOUS!!! Because they use FRESH ingredients. Usually, I ask for less oil and they did it. The service is also wonderful!!!The Crying Tiger is yummy.......Ask for medium rare. The Thai sampler is also great !!!.....You can taste many kinds of appetizers in 1 order. The Thai ice tea in this restaurant is the best Thai tea compared to other Thai teas in other places. One more thing, the Angel Wings are super big and inexpensive. We ordered Pineapple fried rice for a friend and he said it's delicious!!!We have been a regular going to this restaurant for more than 10 years with those same orders and never get tired of the food.“

“Pat and her sister do an amazing job running Siamese Express. The food is delicious and the prices are more than fair. My favorite Thai restuarant between Laguna Niguel & Aliso Viejo.

Parking: Plenty of free parking close to the restaurant.“

“Not sure how this place doesnt have 5 stars, been coming here for a year with my wife and I, and food, service, atmosphere, has all been amazing. I recommend this place to all my friends, family and colleagues. You can close your eyes and throw a pin at the menu, nothing wrong to pick. All tastes amazing.“
