50 Best Thai Restaurants near Orange

“I have never written a review but I had too because we go almost every week it’s just so good. It’s worth to check out, you won’t be disappointed. Their panag curry is so creamy, and their papaya salad is something I dream about. I’m very picky with my papaya salad too, this is the best one in OC. Overall, best Thai food hands down.

This time, I got their ginger chicken, it was so juicy and flavorful with beautifully julienned sliced ginger. The vegetables aren’t overcooked or underdone just perfect. My friend loved her garlic black pepper shrimp, the underrated part of the dish was the garlic topping on the cabbage with a little sauce-very succulent. My other friend got the cashew nut shrimp and said it hit the spot too. Also, we shared the tom yum which was so soothing from the lemongrass and the lime flavor makes it very bright and tangy. We ended the dinner with a scoop of coconut ice cream which was creamy, dreamy, and had a great crunch from the peanut topping.

Service is top tier and they are very welcoming.
Atmosphere is a vibe. It’s just a local hole in the wall place serving authentic cuisine.“

“Food is really good. There service can sometimes be a bit choatic when its busy with food for a table all coming out at different times. Making it a bit weird at the table waiting almost 15 min for others to get thiers. Drunken noodles are top notch. Curry is delicious. Peanut sauce is the best in town. Everyone seems to be having a good time.“

“★★★★★ Lucky’s Thai Pantry — Absolutely Delicious!

Lucky’s Thai Pantry is hands-down one of the best Thai spots around! Every dish is packed with authentic flavor, fresh ingredients, and that perfect balance of spice and sweetness. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they really care about their food and their customers.

“Took my team here for a lunch and we only had an hour. I had called ahead and Kim had our table reserved, got the food moving early, and we were in and out without any stress. The food was amazing, everyone on the team couldn't stop talking about it.

She also arranged a little birthday dessert for one of our team members which was a really lovely surprise.

Great spot for a group lunch or solo lunch. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The best Thai cuisine in town, Chef is from Thailand, authentic taste as well. Walked in with my husband in mid-Dec, we both are Green / Red chicken curry lovers, price is right, enjoyable food, strongly recommend. Then, got lunch special take out today, it was fast prepared. Brought it home, food temperature and taste remained Hot/Delicious as we expected. Definitely would visit or take out again.“

“I had a delightful experience at this establishment. It felt very family oriented and extremely friendly. The food was amazing. I ordered the Shrimp Drunken noodles (Pad kee mao). I had them add chicken and a fried egg to my order. It tasted so fresh! Its probably the freshest Drunken noodles I've ever had in my entire life. I also ordered the Laos Sausage and was blown away at the flavor. I will become a regular customer after my frist experience.“

“Delivery or Dine in, food is always excellent! Workers are very friendly all the time. I’ve never had any problems ordering food. Remember Thai Chili if you are in the neighborhood of Anaheim/Orange area, you’ll never be disappointed ?“

“One of the few authentic Vietnamese restaurants I have found in orange county!“

“It is the best Thai street food in Town. The best Sevice, Friendly Stuff and best Chef. I ordered Crab fried rice, Ku Moo Yang, and crispy belly Kra pow, Banana Grandma, Meatloaf salad. And Mango sticky Rice. They were good like the name of the restaurant! Say Yum! I recommend!!“

“great food. friendly service“

“Love This here Food is great! I don't think that I have ever been disappointed with there food. Wait staff is great!“

“This little Thai restaurant is located inside the Good Eats food court with a variety of restaurants near by. This area is so clean and very inviting for people visiting Anaheim. The ice skating rink is also very close and convenient to stop by here after the game to grab something to eat or have a drink.“

“My wife and I are big fans of Thai cuisine, and last night we decided to try Signature Thai Bistro. We were intrigued because it occupies the same space as Supatra's, a spot we used to frequent years ago before the change in ownership. We called ahead to make a reservation and were seated promptly within a minute of our arrival. My wife follows a gluten-free vegan diet, and Thai food has always been a reliable choice for her. She called in advance to ensure options were available, and the staff was accommodating. Our server, Paul, was outstanding. He went above and beyond to ensure the kitchen was informed about my wife's dietary needs, making the experience seamless and stress-free. Here's what we ordered: Tom Kha Soup: Excellent, bursting with rich and vibrant flavors. Summer Rolls: My wife loved them--fresh and perfectly prepared. Mango Mood drink: Another hit, beautifully balanced and refreshing. Wine: A familiar choice for my wife that paired well with the meal. String Beans and Eggplant: Very delicious, with bold and flavorful seasoning. Crying Tiger: Unfortunately, this dish didn't meet my expectations and is one we wouldn't recommend. Overall, the food was excellent, aside from the Crying Tiger, and the service was exceptional. Special thanks to Paul for his attentiveness and genuine kindness. We highly recommend Signature Thai Bistro for its delicious offerings and top-notch service.“

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

“We went here to celebrate my daughter's birthday. Every dish that we ordered was so delicious and had so much flavor. We really liked the tea flight. It was a nice treat to try the different teas in little cups. We will definitely be going here again.“

“The best authentic Thai food restaurant in town. Lunch specials are worth to try and definitely will keep you coming back.
Our favorites are bamboo chicken and Curry chicken comes with a good portion of chicken, rice and Tom yam chicken soup as well. Highly recommend.“

“Friendly service, nice decoration, clean environment and great food!

We had the angel wings( deep fried boneless chicken wing stuffed with pork, shrimp, and chicken) as appetizer. It’s a good crunch. We also have the tom kha seafood soup, very comforting and full of ingredients and spices. the crying tiger is so juicy. And the crab fried rice can really taste the wok. We also tried the new fried pork with Chinese broccoli. For dessert we have the mango sticky rice, I like how it comes with a heart shape!

For drinks we have Thai milk tea, pink milk and fresh coconut. Overall, an authentic Thai restaurant that you should give a try!“

“I did pickup this time. I ordered the night before for lunch special the next day I was thinking of Thai food and wanted to visit my local Thai restaurant. It was presented properly as requested with great prices! It was ready at the time I requested despite looking kinda busy in the kitchen. Will definitely order online or eat in the restaurant great atmosphere and plenty of parking.“

“Authentic thai restaurant. Staffs are from that country. Goid, clean food and restaurant. Ordered papaya salad, pineapple rice, sticky rice and dumplings.
All good quality. Good for families and company luncheon and dinner. Reasonably price.“

“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.“

“wow everything was amazing. the service was great and everything was so clean. the menu options are plentiful and all the items we tried were delicious. the jaew hon hot pot was so filling on its own and for less than $30, it was enough for two. the sauce that comes with it was sweet with a little spice which had a nice flavor. the thai boat noodle with beef was super flavorful, i loved it. the holy basil fried rice was a HUGE portion with a gigantic rib that comes with it. i was so full already but am so excited for leftovers already :)“

“Great Thai food nice Service 👍❤️“

“Today I went to rodeo 39 in Garden Grove with some friends and I stumbled across Kra Z Kai's. It was my second time trying Laos barbecue. This place is a hidden gem for sure. Everything was the delicious. The ribs were marinated for 24 hours. The barbecue pork and the chicken were all marinated in the same sauce. The owner told me the service was fast and this whole ambience was nice some of the best food I've had in a long time next time I'm going to Garden Grove. I will come here again.“

“It was a great experience the owner/manager helped us choose food options and the amount of spice each food item to make it the best experience possible, excellent kimchi. The staff was cordial and very attentive. My colleagues and I enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.“

“After watching a movie with BTS J-hope nearby, our group grabbed a quick lunch at nearby Thai 7 Bistro at 1:30 pm. It was pouring outside, so we appreciated the indoor dining space and that our group of five was able to fit (thanks to the other customers who swapped tables so Thai 7 Bistro could put two tables together for us).

Since it was raining, a warm soupy dish sounded good. The kao soi ($21.95) caught most of our eyes so three of us each ordered that. I got mines with beef brisket. Crispy chicken wings were an option, but I didn't want to deal with the bones and with the wings potentially getting soggy in the soup. I usually get pad see ew or a curry or crab fried rice, so I never had kao soi before. And now that I had it, it will be part of my standard Thai food order now! I love that there were noodles in this dish plus topped with crispy noodles. The soup was almost as thick as curry. Beef brisket wasn't too fatty either. It all just went well together! I also ordered a Thai iced tea ($4.50) and that was delicious, a good balance of sweet with my very savory meal.

It did take a while for us to get the check since the restaurant got busy, but we appreciated being able to pay separately for our own order rather than try to split the bill five ways with different orders.

We had all parked at the parking structure by the theater, so it was a quick walk back. There are some street parking spots up front, but we preferred the covered parking structure given the rain.“

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

“Food is excellent! Customer service is outstanding!“

“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“

“1. The pad thai was definitely filling, and I love the crispiness of the fried tofu! The thai tea was also refreshing!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes! The interior has high ceilings!
3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! My food was ready after 10 mins!
Note: There is a bathroom available for customers!

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“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 😍“

“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 👌🏾“

“The Bottom Line Up Front:
Siam Station is a relatively new restaurant in Yorba Linda that serves up delicious Thai street food. It's not flawless, but it is now on my go-to list.

The Food:
I ordered the Khao Soi while my wife got the Papaya Salad; we shared the E-San Sausage.

The Khao Soi is an egg noodle served in a creamy yellow curry broth with chicken, red onions, lime, and pickles. It's fast become my favorite Thai food and I often order it as a litmus test whenever I go to a restaurant that's new to me. Fortunately, Siam Station passed the test — the Khao Soi hit the spot! It was satisfying in every way with one exception: it came with literally just a pinch of red onions and pickles in a tiny sauce plate, basically treated like a light garnish. At other places, I normally get a small plate filled with these veggies.

I'm not a big fan of papaya, but the Papaya Salad was solid. Most importantly, my wife approved. And we both loved the E-San Sausage, which is fermented ground pork, rice, garlic, and spices. It was served with a generous portion of cabbage, peanuts, and a couple of slices of ginger.

The Service:
Our server wasn't too friendly but he was polite, knowledgeable, and most importantly efficient. Unfortunately, he was short handed and had just one busboy helping him serve the entire restaurant — which meant we had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated even though there was a table open. It also meant that he didn't return too often after we got our meals and we had to flag him down to get help a few times. This is not a knock on our server. After all, it was busy for a Sunday evening. This is really a staffing issue; had management hired just one more server, the customer experience would have been perfect.

The Location:
It's a smallish medium-sized restaurant so expect a wait if you come during peak hours. It's clean with nice decor and a pleasant atmosphere.

The Parking Situation:
Apparently Siam Station has several locations, but this particular spot is in Downtown Yorba Linda in a shopping complex beside Club Pilates and Apola Greek Grill and across from the Regal movie theater. There's not a lot of street parking and sometimes the open parking lots get filled quickly, but use the nearby parking structure for free and convenient parking.

The Conclusion:
Siam Station is a welcomed addition to the revitalized Downtown Yorba Linda, infusing an authentic Asian touch with delicious food at manageable prices in this down economy. My true rating is 4.5 out of 5, but since I can't give half stars I'm happy to round up. It's not perfect, but we will be back to try more dishes!“

“Food here are awesome!!! love it .. real Thai food. Try Pad See eww or Chicken krapraw..they are the best!“

“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.“

“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.👍🤤🎉“

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

“Whenever I get a craving for Thai this is my go to spot. The food is authentic delicious and Just plain beautiful. The prices are reasonable the portions are large. The atmosphere can be busy, but comforting and relaxing, like a coffeehouse. The hustle and bustle of people coming in doesn’t distract from the atmosphere. In fact, it adds to it. I have always judged a Thai restaurant by their Tom kha kai. The first time I had it here I knew I was in for some good Thai. I’ve been making Tom kha gai at home for years now I know how it’s done and the subtleties of the ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Kinaree serves delicious Thai dishes that can be more difficult to find elsewhere and does them well with their own little twists. A friend and I stuck to the “Chef’s Highlights” portion of the menu, but we would definitely like to return to try their breakfast and brunch items if we can resist reordering some favorites. The waitress had shared that since there was a thai restaurant in the plaza, they had to make a unique menu to set themselves apart which is how the thai fusion brunch menu came to be.

We visited on a Monday afternoon and they only had a few other tables. The pandan sweet tea was subtly sweet and had the right amount of aroma from the pandan. The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and packed full of flavor. The tom yum hot pot had tons of seafood and packed with ramen noodles. Definitely tasted better warm, so try this one first if ordering multiple dishes. Khao soi had the depth of flavor you would want from the curry, although I found it to be slightly on the more watery side. I like the array of proteins you can choose from chicken, beef, blue crab, etc. The STAR of the meal was the fried fish with apple salad. As a big fan of this dish, I can say that they made this perfectly crispy with tender fish inside and a fresh apple salad packed full of herbs that just hits the spot! A def must try! I even ordered one to go as well as their crab fried rice that was super fresh and scrumptious! Unfortunately, they were out of their thai tea cheesecake, but the roti with coconut ice cream was a yummy way to end the meal. What can go wrong with indulging in a warm crispy dough topped with creamy coconut ice cream. Cannot wait to return!“

“Best Thai food ever! And I lived in Bangkok for 6 months last year. Their pad Thai is a must order. My family have been coming here for years. They remodeled and the place is great. My cousins and I like getting their lunch special which is a really good deal. Their servers are very attentive and fast. I highly recommend trying this place. They are very consistent. The pad Thai is always saucy and flavorful. The pad see ew and the pad kee mao are also delicious. Fried rice too.“

“Good place for family dinner“

“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 got the BBQ chicken and (steamed) rice with the ginger scallion sauce and it was so good! The chef and employee were also very nice and were available for any questions we had.
I also got a Thai iced coffee with milk and it is wow! It’s very strong, so fair warning, but also very good! It’s not super sweet or bitter - it’s the perfect in-between.
For the food and coffee (with tip) the total came out to about $24 as of January 2026. I will gladly pay that again! :)“

“We get take out from Basil Thai about twice a month and are never disappointed. The Pad Thai and Crying Tiger are amazing dishes, as is the Drunken Noodles & Cream Cheese Wontons. I've ordered well over half their menu and have liked every dish. I haven't dined in, but the atmosphere is good and it's always crowded, so there you go. Whether you're dining in or ordering take out, this is a great South HB restaurant.“

“This is one of the best Thai restaurants where you can get vegan food. They're extremely nice. Very hard-working. Family. Food is amazing. Usually get get pad Thai noodles. They make sure there is no fish or sauce or eggs. They're always super careful.pl do support this restaurant You will definitely not regret it 😊“

“What a very nice find. We travel to the OC to see an acupuncturist down the road a tad and stopped for a late 2pm lunch. Great Pad Thai and yellow chicken curry. The Thai Ice tea was delicious though a tiny bit more ice than expected, so somewhat watered down. Very nice people!!“

“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!“

“Was brought here on recommendation. I had no idea what to expect was honestly wasn’t sure about it.

Once we ordered and the food came out I was pretty delighted to see everything on the plate. Ate it down real fast. Flavors worked well together and the texture of the ramen was soft yet held together and it was an amalgamation of greatness. I poured the vinegar on it and am usually not a fan of vinegar in general, decided to do it anyway and was really happy on how much it transformed the ramen without being overwhelming. Lastly, a cup of rice was dumped into the remainder I cleaned it up.

10/10 would recommend, would come back again.“

“The Pumpkin Curry with Shrimp was wonderful! 😋“

“It’s great 🥰 I love itttttttttttttt“
