“A little gem in Good Food Hall, a small indoor/outdoor food court at the end of Anaheim Center Street Promenade.
The (Tofu) Pad Thai had the right amount of flavor. The (chicken) Green Curry had a hint of spiciness, right amount of curry-sweetness and fresh looking red & green bell peppers.
We'll definitely go again when around Downtown Anaheim.“

“An experience is fun when that moment fills your senses with life. Lucky Thai is an emotional space; the host lady looks at you with genuine interest and showers you with smiles. Once the food is placed, the very focused chefs create your food with intensity, rhythm, and grace. They are nonstop, choreographed, and full of flames. They will call you, and your food will be at the side counter. It's street food style, but inside the market. With the first taste, you know your decision was right, your intent to be there was rewarded, and your day will go well. I'll leave the rest to you to figure out and to make of Lucky Thai your moment!“

“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.“

“The food is very delicious, the restaurant is very beautiful, there is a lot of parking. Importantly all of the chefs are beautiful“

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

“This place was poppin when we came. Cute Halloween decorations. Food was great! Recommend their savory roti with curry and their sweet roti. Pad thai was tasty. Branzino was really good. The sauce was too salty for me but it had good flavor. Thai iced tea was excellent. Will 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.“

“great food. friendly service“

“★★★★★ 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.

The portions are generous, the presentation is beautiful, and everything tastes homemade with love. Whether it’s the pad Thai, curries, or appetizers — you honestly can’t go wrong.

Highly recommend this place for anyone who loves great Thai food and genuine hospitality. It’s a true hidden gem!“

“Been going to AM Thai with my family for years and they never disappoint. Omni and vegan friendly! Even though it doesn’t say anything on the menu, the staff seemed to know what vegan is so you can confirm options with them. I recently got the orange tofu and it was really good. Their mango sticky rice is vegan - they use coconut based condensed milk.“

“Our first time dining here. Puket Thai tea is so good, I went by the server's rec for less sweet.
Drunken noodles was spicier than we expected for medium level but still very good.
Everything we ordered came out quickly and tastes great!“

“Bangkok Taste has been a family favorite for years, and it just keeps getting better! The recent updates to the restaurant give it such a warm, homey vibe it feels like you’re stepping into a cozy family kitchen where you know the food is going to hit the spot every single time.

The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and genuinely happy to see you. They remember faces, make great recommendations, and treat you like family. A rare thing these days!

And the food? Consistently incredible. We never leave disappointed. Our go-to dishes are the Pad See Ew, Tom Yum Soup, Yellow Curry, and Basil Beef. Each one packed with flavor, freshness, and that perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory that keeps us coming back. Every bite tastes like it was made with care and love.

Whether you’re dining in or taking out, Bangkok Taste delivers on all fronts authentic, flavorful Thai food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. If you’re in the mood for comfort food with serious flavor, this is the place.

Five stars all the way. Bangkok Taste is a true gem in Santa Ana!“

“My service organization regularly came to Silver Spoons' predecessor, so when we found out that Silver Spoons was open, we made the restaurant our next meeting location so we can try it out!

I usually order my go-to to test out a Thai restaurant, so I ordered the pork pad see ew ($14.95) and mild golden curry with chicken ($14.95). I would've ordered a fried rice, but the mild papaya salad ($13.95) caught my attention instead. Note that the dishes come with your choice of chicken, pork, or tofu included in the price, but if you want beef, it'll be an extra dollar, and for shrimp, an extra $2. What was surprising was that the curry doesn't come with white rice. You'd have to fork out an extra $2.50 for that. I thought everything tasted great, though both the papaya salad and pad see ew was a little heavy on the sauce.

My friend ordered mango sticky rice ($12.99) for dessert and I was surprised and happy they had that available (I went to another Thai restaurant during Christmas time and while they had the mango sticky rice on the menu, they said it was not in season so they weren't selling any). I took a few bites of it and enjoyed it -- not too sweet and not too heavy! Don't forget to check-in on Yelp for a free Thai tea.

Service was pretty good! There's plenty of space inside for small and large groups. Plentiful parking too in the parking lot.“

“1. The crab fried rice and drunken noodles were delicious and well-made!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes with a small interior!
3. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in 15 mins!
Note: I did not easily see a restroom available for customers!

“We came here for a dinner. On a Saturday night as we love Thai food. This place was so quiet and peaceful. Basically being vegetarians we were looking for some options. We found plenty. Drunken noodles and pineapple curry were so tasty and had just enough flavours, mild and delicious. We tried their home made coconut icecream, was one of the best I had. Prices were extremely affordable and the lady who served was kind to us. Would highly recommend this place. Would wish more people could visit this place and keep their business flourishing.“

“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.“

“Royal Thai Orchid 9.5/10
Ordered Tom Yum, Thai spicy, with shrimp:
- Really nice level of heat (I ordered it very spicy), and there were no Thai chili pepper pods I had to fish out, so that's good, and they provided extra ground Thai chilis on the side. 👍👍
- fresh mushrooms, not canned, good amount 👍👍
- heat, sourness, amazingly delicious tasting broth, hint of sweetness to contrast the bold hot and sour flavors. All the wonderful tastes melded together, lime, cilantro, galangal, lemon grass, so completely developed and full flavored 👍👍 👍
- giant shrimp, tails on, so tender and delicious and lots of them. 👍👍👍
Bottom line, I've been hunting for the best Tom Yum in SoCal, and I have found it at Royal Thai Orchid. I was settling before, now, never more. Makes me REALLY want to taste their other menu items. Just ordered Tom Yum for the 4th time in the past week (yes, I am obsessed and yes, it's that good), but this time I ordered some stuffed chicken wings as well. Will be amazing I'm sure. 😁“

“Found our new favorite Thai restaurant! From the huge smile given when walked in with 3 adults and two young children until the moment we left, it was a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, the vibe was friendly and relaxing, and we were all full and happy!“

“An Absolute Gem – Thai Food Heaven!

Dining here felt like stumbling into Eden—a peaceful, welcoming place where every bite tastes like it was made with love in someone’s home kitchen. From the moment we walked in, the space was spotless, the atmosphere cozy, and the aroma of spices and fresh herbs was intoxicating.

The food? Next level. The yellow curry chicken was out of this world—creamy, perfectly spiced, and full of flavor. The fire chicken had just the right balance of heat and depth, and everything we ordered tasted like a Thai grandmother was back there cooking it fresh just for us.

The kitchen is immaculate, and you can tell they take pride in everything they prepare. Customer service was top-tier—warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. It’s rare to find a place where everything just clicks—but this is it.

If you’re looking for authentic, soul-warming Thai food in a clean, welcoming setting, this is the place. Easily one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to. I’d give 6 stars if I could.“

“A small restaurant but their Thai food is GOOD!
There is a lil market next door. Love their pad see ew and their mango sticky rice. Every time I come here I try something different, they have like buffet style if you as me exploring new dishes this is an amazing place for it. The only bad thing, they only accept cash.“

“Very kind gesture today with the Brea Father's Day car show event - a very sweet lady waitress probably helped save my 85 year old fathers life today on Father's Day. He had ran out of water on the way back to our car and got overheated and sat down there outside. Such a sweet gesture with a little free ice water, but I promise I will be back for food someday.

She was so sweet and a really big smile. Great work ethic and if the service is that good, the food has to be even better😋 💖 😋 Appreciate it so much and I will be back. Thank you thank you thank you 🫶💖🫶💖🫶💖 Kuop Koon Kha' not sure if I spelled that right haha 😆“

“I ordered the Chicken pad thai (Medium Spice) not thai level spice so if I do come back, definitely getting spicy with extra spice on the side. The space inside makes you feel like you're transported back to Thailand (there was a cab in the front of the menu screen) and limited seating, a couple of tables outside. Overall rating, 4.6 stars for me, I know google doesn't give me the options for the point six. The pad thai was really good, not too mushy, chicken not over done and love that they added the Vietnamese chives ( hẹ) and bean sprouts along with peanuts, gives an extra crunch in every bite. (Menu are as of June 7, 2024)“

“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 👌🏾“

“Great Thai food nice Service 👍❤️“

“Everytime we come to Yorbalinda we have to stop by the Bangkok house Thai, serves one of the best Thai food I’ve ever had even my 3 year old loves it!! We usually order the same, wonton soup, shrimp chow mein and yellow curry this time we order orange chicken and OMYYYY LORD best decision of my life!!! It was crunchy, chicken was soft not too much sauce but definitely not dry. Just perfect.

We’ve also had the thai tea when I tried it I felt like I died and went to heaven, SO GOOD. Mango sticky rice just as good!“

“So happy this new Thai place came to Yorba Linda!! Delicious, fresh, and authentic food. I’m a big fan of how they make the chicken Pad See Ew. The Thai curry soft-shelled crab was spicy, crispy, and scrumptious. Ordering fluffy white rice on the side is a must. The servers are hardworking and kind. It’s a comfortable and cozy restaurant with a bright atmosphere. I’ll definitely be returning here!“

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

“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.“

“The food was good, but the service needs work. We got our food at 8:56, and right after a short break, two server came over asking if we wanted boxes, which felt rushed and uncomfortable. On top of that, server kept giving us judgmental looks.“

“Food was delicious and the service was awesome, our waitress was very friendly and the food was done fast. I would totally recommend this restaurant to my family and friends.“

“Above and beyond service which always makes customers happy and coming back. Thank you and keep it up 👍😊“

“The mazemen here is soooo good! I tried Mogu Mogu before this and it’s essentially the same thing but I personally think Mazera is better. The chashu is very good not dry and the portion can feed more than one person, especially if you add the rice at the end. I always end up with leftovers which I eat the next day and it’s still nice the next day.“

“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 ?“

“Good place for family dinner“

“Found it by total coincidence! They served steamed spicy fish, which is my favorite Thai plate. They delivered. Don’t let the aesthetics and location fool you. This place is family-run and family oriented. I will back with friends. Halal meat is an extra touch too. Takeout available till 7:30PM.“

“It’s great 🥰 I love itttttttttttttt“

“great food, fast service“

“My coworker recommended this place after I requested Thai food lunch. The restaurant was exceptionally clean, the waitress greeted us with a smile and was very friendly. The food was delicious and had such great flavor that I wanted to order an extra meal for dinner tonight. Everything was good and the avocado rolls is now a favorite of mine. I will be having lunch there again next week.“

“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!“

“Review 17/365 Challenge

Brought a few of my girlfriends here for lunch to my old Thai Food Restaurant when I lived in Fullerton or come here to occasionally get my Thai boat noodle fix 2.18.25

One of my friend who frequently visits Thailand a few times in a year has never had Thai Boat Noodle Soup.
How’s that possible.
Brought her and she loved it along with the Rad Nah.

What we ordered

~ Thai Style Papaya Salad with fresh Shrimp is refreshing and i didn’t get spicy. Because my friend can’t have too much spice. The shrimp with it is good on topped.
~ Garlic Short Ribs are yummy. Light garlic taste that compliments and good to enjoy with the papaya salad.
~ Rad Nah Seafood is good. Recommended. With big thick wide rice noodles stir fried. Topped w a gravy mixed seafood.
~ Thai Boat NoodLe Soup is the best here. I love the broth, thick and well seasonly herbed. The spicier the better. With thin rice noodles.
~ Sweet Mango Sticky Rice was the icing to the top of our lunch. Mango is sweet and fresh with creamy sticky rice.

Service was awesome as always.
Restaurant is big and spacious. Nice Thai restaurant.

Located on the same plaza as 85 Degrees, Wushiland Boba, 99 Ranch Market, BBq Chicken, Red Ribbon, Jollibee to name a few in Euclid Plaza.

Lots of parking available.“

“Nicest people! This is our favorite place for many years already!! Best Authentic Thai food!!“

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“Great little hidden gem of a resturaunt. food is always delicious with plenty of options to suit just about anyone's tastes. owners are very nice and do a wonderful job managing and maintaining the quality of food. atmosphere is more of a modern Cafe feel than traditional of the culture and the fox theme is absolutely adorable. I highly recommend if you are in the area and looking for a nice little place with traditional flavors and modern twists. We will be returning again soon to done among the foxes!“

“My friend and I came to this unassuming family owned restaurant for lunch. She had been there twice and loved it and so I thought I’d give it a try. The lunch special was really excellent. I had the spicy basil with beef and it came with rice and a very fresh quality side salad. My friend enjoyed her chicken pad Thai. It looked so good that I ordered one to go for my husband. He loved it too. The service was warm and attentive. I’ve been searching for a good Thai restaurant to replace Basil and Co, which has excellent food but it’s always crowded, loud, and the service was unapologetically slow at my last visit. Verdict: My new go-to Thai restaurant. It doesn’t have the ambience of Basil and Co but it checks off a lot of important boxes for me.“

“Food always great service is ok too! This is like our extended kitchen.“
