11 Best Thai Restaurants in Irvine

“We all enjoyed our food. The chicken appetizer was ok. Beef satay was good. The pad Thai, pad khee mao and massaman curry were all good. The curry had rich, warm flavor. I wish the carrots and potatoes had been a little softer (cooked longer)
There was a bit of confusion with how the spice levels worked and also what we were ordering for an appetizer and wanted to come out first versus what we were ordering for the main course.
The refrigerator makes a loud buzzing noise and it vibrates the restaurant. The wall next to us was shaking“

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“1. The curry noodles dish was really good! I like the sausage option!
2. The spot has fun casual vibes as it is part of a food court!
3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order!
Note: They will give you a buzzer to let you know when the order is ready for pickup!

“I had an amazing meal at Thai Spice! The Shrimp Fried Rice was perfectly seasoned — flavorful without being greasy, and the shrimp were fresh and tender. The Shrimp Chow Mein had just the right balance of savory sauce, crisp veggies, and chewy noodles — so satisfying. And to finish off, the Mango Sticky Rice was absolutely delicious — the mango was sweet and ripe, and the sticky rice was perfectly creamy with coconut flavor.

Great portions, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. Definitely one of my new favorite Thai spots in Irvine!“

“Thai Bamboo Bistro has great food and nice decor. Their Thai Iced Tea is really good, as has been everything I have ordered there, whether it be a shrimp, beef, or chicken dish. Their soups are good too. This cute place has good, prompt, friendly service and good prices. They have a large TV on mute for watching sports or other programs. This place is highly recommended for a delicious lunch or dinner. They have a loyal clientele and quick seating.“

“I’ve previously ordered take out from Thai Kitchen and enjoyed the generous portions and great options. I dined in-person and the service was great — very friendly and proactive with making sure I had everything I needed. Bamboo Royale and Pad Kee Mow are my favorite dishes. Highly recommend!“

“I Love George's food. His Pad Thai is awesome. The Drunken Noodles are also delicious. His location is inside a "Ghost Kitchen" facility called "Smart Kitchens". It's a hidden gem. He used to have a brick and mortar location on bristol street, before the pandemic started.Customer beware. Its all takeout at this location. You can find this food on most popular 3rd party delivery apps. You can do pickup via his website too. Thats where he shines the most.If you go into the "ghost kitchen" as a walk-in order, you can place orders via the KIOSK inside. Wait times may vary during peak hours. I hope this information is helpful to the readers that took the time to read this comment.“

“As others have said, tastes great, but the value isn’t there with the tiny portions. Owners, Please take a look at your portions and cogs. At the current price point, I don’t understand why a healthy serving isn’t possible. Even the soup is only half the container… come on.“

“Nara is a top-tier experience! The food is authentic to the true flavors of Thailand, and every dish is rich and layered with flavors.

It’s clear that every detail was highly considered, from the atmosphere of the setting, to the authentic Thai dishes, to the presentation of each plate. And the team is amazing! Fiona and Michael are wonderful hosts, Joel is a humble and skilled chef, and Sofia and Tara are a lovely, attentive, and beautiful presence. I will absolutely return again!“
