“Love Lotus Thai Bistro! The pad see ew is my favorite, but also love other classics like Pad Thai and the Pineapple Fried Rice. I’ve ordered in, taken out, and worked with their team for catering for work events as well. A wonderful business and restaurant!“

“We are vegetarian, and we had such a great meal! They modified the yellow chicken curry with tofu, and they were nice enough to clarify with us that we didn't want fish sauce!

It was really tasty. The flavors were there. Give this place a chance. It's often missed in PA, but we'll be coming back again for the awesome food!“

“Needed something hot to hit the spot on a cold rainy day. The place was packed with students from Stanford. Ordering was easy and quick with the mobile service. The pad pad was steaming hot, which is something I always appreciate about quick service food and the Thai tea was delicious!

Pro tip: ask for the bean sprouts to be cooked with your pad thai!“

“The food is always great!“

“My Thai husband said the food here reminds him of his childhood 🥰. The flavors are great and the menu is far more interesting than your average Thai restaurant. To top it off, the ambiance in the dining area is really cozy and the service was great - I was really impressed at the one person who was host / waiter / expediter all in one. We'll definitely be coming again with the rest of the family. What we ordered which could feed 4 adults (favorites with *):

*Chiangmai Sausage - spicy and aromatic
Fried Tofu
Papaya Salad
*Larb Gai
*BBQ Chicken
Braised Chicken Noodle Soup - a hearty meal!“

“I didn’t know they open for breakfast. I had sunnyside up eggs, fresh salad and Croissant. And I ordered DoorDash for dinner the other day. My favorite is coconut soup with a tofu. I went there with my sister again today. The owner was very friendly. I love her always smiling. The curry potato puff was so yummy. I will definitely go back to try some other stuff.“

“This restaurant catered the recent fund raiser for the Cupertino Historical society and the food WAS TO DIE FOR! The best food I’ve ever had at such an event. Standouts were the pineapple rice, the vegetable pastries the chicken satay the pad Thai and cooked chicken on a skewer the desserts were great too - little candied strawberries and tiny slices of an amazing cake. We are staff and we were just swooning over the tastes of everything. I want to take my mom to the restaurant now“

“My partner and I are not from around here. Decided to stop and try this place and what a great decision that was! The food tasted fantastic! Some of the best basil fried rice I’ve ever had. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere was very welcoming. If we’re ever in the area again, this will become a go to stop. 10/10!“

“Best Thai ever and we've done a fair bit of Thai in our time.“

“Good ambience. Food is tasty. We ordered pad kee mew but the soya sauce was strong the owner ( who is a chef as well,) personal came to understand the problem and talked to us nicely about his commitment for good taste. Appreciate the genuine efforts.

Unlike other Thai restaurant, a veggie dish come with tofu as your choice of protein but here it's either vegetable or tofu. If you want a mix then it's a extra. I think this should be changed.“

“Papaya Thai is a Bay Area treasure. My wife and I stumbled upon it while looking for a good place to have lunch after running an errand in Newark. We had Lamb Yellow Curry Stew and Pad Thai with Shrimp. The lamb was perfectly cooked in a rich yellow curry with potatoes and carrots. The meat was as tender as you can possibly imagine. The Pad Thai was mixed with a sweet sauce that was slightly sticky, which I like so the noodles adhere to each other. I don’t know if this is traditional, but really like Pad Thai like that.“

“Awesome Thai food Friendly service great.“

“อาหารอร่อย😋พนักงานบริการดีเยี่ยมค่ะ“

“Solid thai place in the bay, I have been here now twice! The Taro Samosas are delicious, slightly sweet and yummy. The time I just went, I got tofu red curry and rice, spring rolls, and pad kee mao. The pad kee mao was very colorful and full of veggie, but I feel like there wasn’t that much in terms of tofu and noodles. The red curry was great, and I got both these as medium and it still had a solid amount of heat, I can only imagine how thai spicy is, since I usually go for hot! The spring rolls were overpriced but still solid.

I was most impressed by the service, food came out instantly and the staff were kind.“

“I ordered a chicken pad thai. First order from this restaurant, even though I've lived in the area for a couple of years now. The website was very easy to navigate. The photo of the pad thai matched up with what I received. As I walked in, the employee was very kind and I got my order immediately.

The pad thai itself was very delicious. I got the medium spice level, which was just right as my tolerance has gone down over the past year from not eating as many spicy foods. The noodles, chicken and veggies were cooked to perfection. The amount of food I got was as expected for the price I paid. Will order from this place again if I'm craving Thai again!“

“We walked in for a quick munch. Surprisingly we were the only ones there at 2pm. Service is great!“
