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.“

“I can’t say enough good things about Thai Dara Dana Point!

This is our go to spot and the food is consistently excellent and the service is amazing. Fern and Eke are the best and will make you feel so welcome and taken care of. It’s the most charming atmosphere and we’ve never had anything other than a great experience here and we’ve been going for years. Highly recommend the Tom Kha Soup, pad Thai, and crying tiger. Oh and ginger tea.

Thank you Thai Dara for always a great experience.“

“Ahairn arroy mak ka!! Kob koon ka!!“

“Watching TV and saw Pad Thai and had to have some. Wanted chix/shrimp and couldn't get any of the platforms to give me that option. Pad thai near me got me to Thai Dara 2 and my order had lots of both perfectly cooked shrimp and big white meat chicken pieces. The order left me with enough for dinner. I will definitely be back.“

“Thai Palace was an amazing experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely incredible, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. If you’re looking for a great Thai food experience in Orange County, I highly recommend giving Thai Palace a try!“

“These are the types of food joints I look for! Authentic owners and flavor. I enjoyed the Chicken Tom Yum with some Sticky Rice and Prik Nam Pla.... But they actually serve you up with a full spice rack anyhow as they should!

The soup was flavorful plenty of protein and encapsulated all of the ingredients, sticky rice done to perfection!“

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

“Thai Brothers was phenomenal! Although our GPS took us all the way around the block only to bring us right back to the entrance, the food and service were amazing. We were able to select our seats. The server was very prompt in bringing menus, ice water and silverware. We ordered Thai Tea and Spring Rolls to start. Although Thai Tea is very sweet, it is super delish and was made perfectly! The spring rolls arrived hot, crispy and with a very yummy sauce. We ordered different types of curry, which came with a side of rice. The servings were generous and the curries were so good it was difficult to stop eating even when full! The server didn't ask our spiciness level preferences. She may have assumed on our behalf and picked a lower level or because we didn't specify, so make sure you tell them.“

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

“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“

“I've been eating here for many months now. Tried many dishes, including their curries, fried fish cake appetizer, and pad kra pow. Really love their flavors. Nice staff too. The fried fish cake appetizer is my favorite. Growing up in Singapore, it reminds me of some of the flavors from there.“

“Thai Bite is one of the stronger Thai food options in the area, especially for takeout or a quick dine-in meal. It focuses on flavor and consistency without overextending the menu.

Dishes like pad thai, curries, and fried rice all come out well balanced. Portions are fair, and spice levels are customizable.

As someone who works locally, this is a practical recommendation when clients want something quick but still quality. Clients ask me about places like this when they’re looking for dependable takeout options.

Parking is easy, service is quick.

It’s a solid, repeatable choice.“

“We've been a Thai Bite customer for ten years and quality of food and service never diminish. They add new and delucious recipes to their ensemble every now and then that widens options and makes them more interesting.
No complaints just commendations.“

“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.“

“I don’t get why this place doesn’t have more people come in , owner is really friendly, food is amazing especially the chicken pad Thai and coconut curry. It has the vibe and atmosphere of such a homey and comforting place; I only get this food as comfort and every single time it guarantees me that I feel better. Such an amazing low-key gem thay I hope more people discover“

“It has been a while since we were in, but the beautiful people that own and operate this fantastic restaurant are part of the heart and soul of San Clemente. From the moment you step through the door and greeted you feel at home. They create the most delectable appetizers, our favorite are the crispiest most delightful spring rolls to get you started. They cut them in sections so it’s an easy first date choice or like me lots of sharing with my hubby and friends, don’t miss the large coconut tomyomga soup. It comes to the table in a sizzling towering centerpiece. Enough to share. The drunken noodles were always on our table. We live far away now, but I dream of walking in and the aromas from the old recipes wafting from the kitchen, the fantastic silk shirt collection the host wears when he sweeps you to your table. Their radiant daughter taking your order and garbed in layers of colorful embroidered Thai gowns. Just a ten out of ten date night, family night, authentic to the core spot that makes you feel like you are part of the family. You are a gift Munghut Thai! Truly! Thank you for years of connection and bringing so much heritage culture and grace to the community. No one compares.“
