“I came to this plaza today because I had to take a class over the weekend here and I'm happy I was stumbled upon this pretty sweet Thai spot. The atmosphere was chill and the service was pretty friendly. I got the khao soi chicken and it was quite tasty, tender chicken, thick noodles and crispy noodles, what's not to love. I was almost tempted to order some rice to soak up more of that awesome gravy. If I was in the area I would come back again.“

“Very good Thai food! I consider myself a Thai aficionado and I’ve gotta say this place hit the spot. The owner was very friendly and brought the food out to us personally. It’s a satellite kitchen pick up spot with a few tables & chairs to eat if you’d like to dine in. Highly recommend 👌🏾“

“This is the best Thai food I’ve had in all of OC. I had the spicy pork noodle soup and golden pouches, both were 10 out of 10, and the Thai coffee was the perfect accompaniment to the spicy meal! Can’t wait to go again. Excellent service too!“

“Cool decor! Built by owner! Must visit! Have your espresso here!“

“I have been to many Thai restaurants but this one stands out with tastety food and outstanding service .... strongly recommend you to try their food“

“First timer to Basil Thai and it was quite good. The location is a small place with a dozen tables and at 5pm on a Thursday, not busy. The anchor store for this shopping center was obviously T.J.
Service was fast, english was spoken clearly at my table with I guess Thai (?) spoken behind the counter. I had Chicken Basil Thai Fried Noodle plate and Tom Yum Noodle Bowl. I could not finish it all which is a good thing for takeaway. Both have a light spicy foundation that was not overwhelming and sufficient for lighter Thai palates. As a local customer, I will return.“

“Crab fried rice ( it's like a rocket fireworks) AMAZING 10/10 stars. Tom kah soup 9/10 stars. Yellow curry chicken 7/10 stars. Papaya salad 7/10 stars. Fried wonton 8/10 stars. To finish the meal the sweet mango with sweet rice amazing too 9/10 stars . This is a nice place my family loves it. Come try this place . Have a great day. BTW they are sweet and friendly people.“

“Delish and great staff. The staff IS family and they treat not only their customers like family, but the other staff as well. That means a lot. We had a fun time with DJ and Pleng. About the food... We had 4 dishes... Hanuman's ceviche, Tom Kha Gai, Massaman, Pad See Ew and a nice glass of Malbec. My favorites were the ceviche and Massaman. But everything was so good. Hubs liked everything. There was literally no wait at 3 pm but come soon... Once word gets out this place will have a 45 min wait just like the mother location on Bristol.“

“Nice spot located in this cool food court
Fast service
Decent prices considering inflation in 2024
I got the khao soi dish - a famous thai entree
Chicken was a bit squishy - but still delicious
Soup was rich and creamy
4/5 total overall rating“

“We love Thai fix! We have been coming here for years. We moved to the other side of HB about 2 years ago but we drive over to grab Thai Fix about 1-2 times a month. I love their Pad Tai with chicken, Green Curry and my husband loves the Pad See Ew. We would recommend you try it for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Favorite local neighborhood Thai restaurant. Absolutely love the Kao Soi Chicken. =)“

“Delicious Food amazing customer service If you love Thai this place is a most“

“The Chicken Rice is one of the top spots in OC for original Khao Man Gai. It’s been a minute since my last visit, so I was surprised to discover that they relocated from their previous Santa Ana location into the 4th Street Market. The Chicken Rice joins a number of innovative food makers featured in this food hall. I parked at a nearby meter but according to their website, there are two parking structures off of 4th and 5th Streets that offer the first 2 hours free!

I recommend making it a combo with the Chicken & Rice which includes 2 choices of protein, soup and vegetables. My go-to protein choices are Hainanese Chicken and Crispy Chicken, so I get to enjoy the best of both worlds! The combo includes a choice of signature ginger rice or steamed rice, but you can choose brown rice (+$1) or sticky rice (+$2) for an additional charge. They also allow their customers to select 2 sauces from 8 different options. The Ginger Chicken Oil is a nice complement to the Hainanese Chicken and I enjoyed dipping the Crispy Chicken in their Spicy Soybean Chili Ginger sauce. If you’re a Hainan Chicken fan like I am, The Chicken Rice is a must try!“

“Excellent Food! Nice staff.“

“Very good Thai food. Staff were very friendly. Good price for portions.“

“Great Thai food! I recommend the asparagus shrimp and the pad kee mao. Friendly staff. Inexpensive.“

“The Pad Thai here is the best one I have tasted so far“

“Food is excellent! Customer service is outstanding!“

“From the service to the food, everything was amazing! My new favorite restaurant!!!“

“The best Pad See Ew I have ever had
and I have eaten A LOT! I cannot describe the joy this place gives me :))

The food is made incredibly quickly and the process of retrieving it is so smooth. Five stars all around.

TRY THE PAD SEE EW, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!“

“The food is delicious...and the staff at the restaurant are very good. The owner is friendly and lovely.“

“We enjoyed the small hole in the wall atmosphere and all 10 of us found the dishes to be quite good! prices were around $10-15 but portion sizes varied a lot. i found my spicy noodle sizing to be a bit small for $13.

restroom was also in the rear of the building so you had to walk around back which felt unsafe at night and weird to be in the kitchen. also restroom had a very strong scent“

“Have been picking up takeout from this neighborhood staple for 26 years and I know people who have been eating here since 1990. D Thai Chinese is apparently a one-woman operation; the owner takes orders, cooks, serves etc. all by herself, and she is so sweet and friendly.
I can only respect how D Thai's prices remain lower than other Thai/Chinese places in the area, although the prices have been raised in the last year or so (two dollars up per lunch and dinner special). The quality of the food however has remained reliably good, fresh cooked to order, and flavorful. I don't know enough about Chinese or Thai cooking to comment on how authentic it is, but it's pretty good in my opinion and that's what matters most to me.
I've tried most of the menu over the years and the standouts to me are the fried rice, thai basil chicken, mongolian beef, beef salads, and pad see ew. The majority of the menu is four stars, but those are the five star items in my experience.
Be advised, cash only and takeout only! For what it is -- a takeout Asian hole-in-the-wall restaurant -- D Thai is a respectable local treat that I will allow myself pretty regularly within my budget. Since the owner lady is so likeable and impressive, and the food is plentiful and decent quality for your dollar, I have to rate this place five stars overall.
Thank you, nice owner lady, for your years of providing your good food and service to Westminster's hungry and grateful people!“

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“Small, not super fancy, but very nice place. Good food for a fair price. Thai ribs were good (interesting and not usual flavor). We were treated in a very polite and friendly manner. Thank you!
PS. With some traditional music in the background would be even better. :)“

“Fried spare ribs is to die for, pad Thai is cooked perfectly , and the golden needles for super duper delicious . Not to mention their customer service is superb“

“The food is delicious I’ll be back for more love their panang curry 😋“

“I have been going to Thai Pepper for decades now. There food is always just spot on and the lunch special of $9.95 is a great deal. You get an entree in which I always get The Mint Leaves Chicken, fried rice, two fried wontons and a salad. My only suggestion would be to put the salad in a separate little box so it does not get hot next to the hot food. Other than that the food is excellent and great prices. You can get it mild to very hot on the spice! I stick with mild and my friend always gets the level 10 hot, hot, 🔥🥵 HOT. I would die, but different strokes for different folks.👍🤤🎉“

“Love love the food , great service Definitely recommend!“

“Fresh food from Thailan. ? Enjoyable flavor. Kind family.

Westminster Mall is the absolute best place to come and study. There are soooo many places to sit at a table and eat without distraction.

It is like a SUPER sized library that allows you to eat while you study. ?

This is a honey comb hideout for people in deep study.... Or people that just want to lounge (alone or with others). ??“

“The best Thai Food restaurant in Southern California. I would name my favorite dishes, but there’s too many to choose from 🍛 And I can’t ever skip the mango sticky rice 😍“
