31 Best Thai Restaurants near Ladera Ranch

“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!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“I have been coming here for years. The service and food are great! My favorite is usually the Pad Thai, but the Crying Tiger I tried tonight was also amazing. My wife likes the yellow chicken curry, which is also delicious when she shares some with me.“

“Everything was good but the drinking water they used out of container on back counter had a bad taste just recommend getting bottled water otherwise excellent meal“

“Thai Garden Restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience that’s hard to beat. The Thai tea here is a must-try—smooth, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, making it a great start to any meal. The food is amazing, with standout dishes like the chicken dim sum, which was deliciously tender and packed with flavor. The drunken noodles were equally impressive—perfectly spiced and full of vibrant textures. Beyond the food, the service was attentive and friendly, enhancing the overall experience. The restaurant itself was spotless, maintaining a welcoming and clean atmosphere throughout. On a Tuesday evening, the place was bustling with patrons, a testament to its popularity. This speaks volumes about the quality of food and service they offer. With such a positive experience, I’ll be back. Highly recommend Thai Garden Restaurant for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine in a comfortable setting.“

“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!“

“If you want the best crispy fried chicken ever... you NEED to come here.

Crispy Fried Chicken: GET THIS!!
The most deliciously crispy, juicy, and mouth watering chicken you will ever eat. Paired with the sauce, I don't think it can get any better. I don't even live near here and I come back just for this.

The other items were tasty and seasoned well but the fried chicken just stole the show for me.

The service was very friendly and accommodating. And for dinner time, we were almost the only ones in the restaurant. For how good the food was, this place needs to be put on the radar!

“Thai Brothers has been in Laguna Beach for almost 40 year and the food is absolutely wonderful! They provide large servings and allow you to easily customize your order. The staff are friendly and always make me smile. I usually get takeout though because the restaurant is relatively small and it can be difficult to hear each other sometimes. I hope they're still around in another 40 years!“

“My husband and I stopped in on a Friday evening. We were the only patrons which made me a little concerned at first but there was consistent takeout pickup the whole time we were there. Our apps were fresh and prepared to order. I had the green curry and my husband had the KUA-KRING SIAM, both had incredible flavors and just straight up delicious!“

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

“Always our choice for Thai food!“

“Today was my first time here but the Volcano Seafood I ordered is absolutely amazing“

“I don't know how they do it, but everything is good here! I love the Satay and Tom Yum. The space is welcoming and personal, the service is professional, and the prices are perfectly reasonable. This is my new favorite restaurant - I look forward to becoming a regular!“

“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“

“The service is great and food is excellent. Becky was a wonderful host and took care of our party of 33 people with ease! So glad we dined with Thai Bite to celebrate with our family. All the food was made fresh and tasted great! Everyone was served well and looked after by the Thai Bite team.“

“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“

“It was a distinct pleasure to finally experience this highly anticipated Thai establishment. The ambiance immediately transported me to Thailand, a feeling unequivocally reinforced by the exceptional cuisine. Each dish showcased an impressive authenticity of flavor. The Green Curry with chicken was a particular highlight, perfectly satisfying a long-held craving. Additionally, the shrimp fried rice was a masterclass in balance, offering a delightful texture and exquisite taste. Beyond the culinary delights, the staff's remarkable hospitality and the impeccable cleanliness of the premises further enhanced the overall experience. I eagerly anticipate a return visit to savor the green curry again and explore more of their enticing menu.“

“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“

“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.“

“We’re so lucky to have this Thai restaurant in our local neighborhood! Every dish is packed with authentic flavor from the perfectly balanced Pad Thai to the rich and creamy Panang curry, it’s clear the chefs take pride in every plate. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and the spice levels are just right (with options to adjust if you like it milder or hotter).

Our go to favorites are their house fried rice and the spicy eggplant curry beef both absolutely delicious and full of flavor. We also love their Thai Iced Tea, which is always perfectly chilled and creamy a great way to round out the meal.

The staff are always welcoming and treat you like family. Service is quick, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive.

Whether you’re grabbing a casual lunch or celebrating a special dinner, this place never disappoints. A must-visit spot if you love Thai food or if you’re just ready to fall in love with it!“

“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Absolutely phenomenal Thai food! This place exceeded all my expectations from the warm, welcoming service to the explosion of flavors in every dish. We ordered the Pad Thai and platter sample - everything was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented.

You can tell they use fresh ingredients and put real heart into their cooking. The staff was so kind and attentive, even offering recommendations based on our spice preferences. Cozy atmosphere, fair prices, and generous portions - what more could you ask for?

Definitely my new go-to Thai spot. Highly recommend to anyone craving authentic, delicious Thai cuisine! 🙌🍜🇹🇭 next time I am going to try Tom Yam soup“

“Still really good food, service and atmosphere but prices continue to rise and sadly we’ll have to find another Thai restaurant that’s more affordable. Thought it was strange that Panang curry with chicken does not come with rice; we had to pay extra for a bowl of rice…?“

“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!“

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

“This place has such consistently good food. they don’t have interior seating, but they do have some outdoor seats. Typically I just come here for food pick ups. The panko chicken is my favorite. Something about their rice flavoring makes it so much better as well. Overall it’s a solid place for a healthy great tasting meal.“

“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.“

“A good local joint for tasty Chinese or Thai food options. Staff are very friendly and service is generally quick, making this an effective work lunch destination. The serving sizes are generous and the prices were reasonable, especially for the lunch specials. I highly recommend trying the Pad Tai as it has a fantastic flavor.“

“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.“

“Husband and I was driving cross country and we slept close to this restaurant about 11 mins of walk and the food is pretty good. We ordered it for takeout. They didn’t give us any utensils and napkins at all which they should for take out but it’s ok. Good thing we pack our own utensils. All the food that we ordered was good and spicy.“
