50 Best Thai Restaurants near Placentia

“Literally the best food around! pork vermicelli and fried tofu! their pho! everything is top tier !!!!! we moved to oregon and miss this food so much haha! the best! hands down!“

“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.“

“Thai food is a hit or miss ,and some better than others. So far Lucky Thai has been better than most, with a few drawbacks when then run out of product. All food is made fresh from my trips here. This establishment is inside the 168 Market and is very simple, small seating to eat there or you can have take out. Service takes a little time for prep in most cases, but worth the wait.“

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

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

“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.“

“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.“

“great food. friendly service“

“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!“

“★★★★★ 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!“

“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.“

“My favorite Thai restaurant in OC! Fresh ingredients, rich flavors, generous portions. The owners are amazing and friendly people. Highly recommend! Order more than $55 and you get free crab rangoons which are awesome - my daughter always makes sure we order enough so she get's her free order :)“

“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 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.“

“I have been craving to try boat noodle soup ($15.95) since I've seen it online. It is a blood-based soup so it's a dark brown but the taste is not noticeable. It comes with thin noodles, sliced beef, pork meatballs, green onions, pork rinds, Thai basil, and cilantro. They do have a Thai level of spicy and they do warn that they do not to re-makes of dishes.

I also got their pork jerky which came with a side of spicy fish sauce dip.

The staff is nice and the place is clean.“

“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“

“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!

“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.“

“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 👌🏾“

“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)“

“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!“

“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.“

“Good place for family dinner“

“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.“

“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! :)“

“My husband and I came here for the first time for a little date night and it was absolutely amazing!!! The ramen was incredibly delicious and honestly some of the best we’ve had. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. 🍜😍

What really made the experience unforgettable though was the service. Our waitress was beyond kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. It was probably the best service I’ve ever received at a restaurant. She made us feel so comfortable and taken care of the entire time.

I can definitely see why this place has nearly five stars. The food, the service, and the overall atmosphere made it such a lovely night for us. We will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“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 ?“

“It’s great 🥰 I love itttttttttttttt“

“I want to mention firstly, this place has the nicest people as staff members. The lady knew I was Japanese and spoke Japanese to me. She made sure my to go drinks were not melted so made it the moment I arrived.
It's such a breath of fresh air to feel so naturally welcomed, with the Thai hospitality.
I ordered Panang Curry with soft tofu, Pad see Ew, and Tom Kah soup
Everything is exactly how you'd want when you're craving Thai food. Very savory and spicy if you want to sweat!
Spice level available from 1-10. My partnet has a psychotic tolerance so level8 didn't phase him 😅but it's still a delicious place to stop by.

It's an intimate setting so I'd recommend no more than a group of 4.“

“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.“

“I placed a to go order and everything was perfect. I had the lunch special and a small soup. The order was packaged well for travel, and everything was correct. They provided sauces and utensils which was appreciated. A salad was included with the lunch special. It was fresh with a great dressing. The Spicy Basil Leaves lunch was so yummy. I have to say the soup was the star of the show. If you visit this restaurant do not leave without trying the Tom Kha Soup.“

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

“Love everything my favorite place to dine with my family . I recommend the yellow curry and pad Thai.“

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

“🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“great food, fast service“

“I’ve known about Bangkok Pai for quite a while. It’s located inside the T&K Plaza, a long established shopping center in the Bolsa area. I usually come here to order takeout for a quick lunch or on days when I feel too lazy to cook.

Besides the classic Thai dishes like Pad See Ew and Pad Thai, their desserts really stand out to me. The prices are reasonable, and the quality is consistently good. My favorite dessert is the cassava topped with fresh shredded coconut. It’s slightly chewy, fragrant, and lightly sweet such a comforting and satisfying treat.

Parking in this plaza can be a bit challenging since it’s a busy commercial area with many businesses. However, the affordable prices and friendly service make it worth it.

I’ll definitely continue coming back to support long-standing local spots like this in the Bolsa neighborhood.“

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“This place is very good. I would request that some of the dishes that they have in store would be added to online delivery like DoorDash as we live kind of far and would order more often. The crab omelette rice is missing from the online ordering menu :(“

“I like their food, free refill of thai ice tea and free fried ice cream ball.“

“Great food, servings are generous & great service“

“definitely delicious 😋 good food and great service i strongly recommended“

“I just ordered about 80.00 bucks of food for 2 people and not sorry about it! Everything is delicious. the beef satay was remarkable. over sized spring rolls, Pad Thai very good. nice people serving. calm atmosphere.“

“Honestly 4 stars just because they’re hard working people trying to make a living. However I’m disappointed in the food quality and portion size I been coming here for years and the consistency isn’t there. I ordered 3 pineapple fried rice with beef and honestly the rice has no sauce very bland and the beef you have to dig to find a piece. In the whole plate it was 19.99 and there was 4 pieces of beef like come on. I’m paying 20 for just rice no sides no vegetables and barely any protein. My bill was 70$ and ended up cooking steak at home to add on top of the rice. And that’s not considering the quality of the beef they use it’s very chewy and low grade.“
