⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been going to Ratcha Noodle since October 2005 — I was 21 years old then, and now I’m 41. That’s 20 years of enjoying one of the best Thai restaurants in Redding!
Right now (October 2025), they’re on vacation until November 10th, and I honestly can’t wait for them to come back because I’ve been craving their food nonstop. This restaurant is family-based, run mostly by sisters, and you can truly feel the love, care, and warmth in everything they do. They’ve known me for so many years that when I walk in, they always check in on me — asking how I’m doing, how my daughter is, and what’s new in my life.
Sometimes when it’s my birthday, or if I’ve had a hard day, or when my daughter’s birthday comes around, they’ll surprise us with something sweet — like candies, a small toy, or mango sticky rice. It’s such a thoughtful touch, and it shows how much they care. They treat their regulars like family, and I truly love them for that.
They always cater to my needs without hesitation. They know I love big salads, so they make me a large bowl with cashews, cucumber, jicama, sweet mango, avocado, spring mix, cabbage, and onion, often mixed with a mild papaya salad (no tomatoes — they remember that!).
My favorite meal is the cassoy beef with extra egg, broccoli, mushrooms, and tendon. Their Pad Thai, curries, and spring rolls are also incredible — especially the spring rolls, which are soft and sticky on the rice part, crunchy and fresh on the veggies, and just melt in your mouth.
I used to order Thai boba tea with light boba and extra cream, and they always made it perfect. These days I eat a bit healthier, and they still prepare everything just how I like it. I usually spend between $12 and $30, depending on how many extras I order — and every penny is worth it.
The people here are truly delightful, genuine, and kind. After 20 years, they feel like family to me. If you’ve never been — go while you can! Their food is made with love, and I hope you have an experience like mine, or even better.

I am visiting a friend in Redding. He said he had pho but did not like it. Who doesn’t like pho? So, I found this place based on recommendations and he absolutely loved the pho. And it is very reasonably priced! Sweet staff, reasonably priced food And tasty food. And, The cook redeemed pho in my friend’s eyes. Oh, and the mango sticky rice had a really nice and ripe mango, which is not always the case.

The food is amazing. The ladies are the sweetest but a little slight of hearing, ordering can be difficult at times. They are a tad slow in the kitchen but the wait is worth it. The food is made with love.

Authentic Thai flavors using fresh, quality ingredients. The owners, by their quiet kindness, show that they genuinely care for their customers and community. As for the menu, my daughter always enjoys the fried chicken wings and these are among the best she's ever had. The curries are well-seasoned without the spices overwhelming the palate and are loaded with sufficient protein and fresh vegetables as to be genuinely healthy, despite the awesome deliciousness. Mango with sticky rice was also a generous portion and could have come right from a kitchen in Bangkok. This restaurant is a gem of a place to eat and enjoy the great culinary tradition of the Land of Smiles, also well known as a Foodie Paradise.

I’m very picky about how well the rice and noodles are cooked, and this place is perfect. I ate here twice while I’m staying here for two days. Duck fried rice and Thai boat noodles were both amazing.

They make some of the BEST food in Redding, I highly recommend!! I went in tonight because I’m sick and don’t feel the greatest, I told the girl at the front I needed some comfort food and she loaded me up!!

We were looking for a place to eat for our blended vegan/ non vegan family. Happy cow came through! This place was a hole in the wall, but the food was amazing.

GREAT EXPERIENCE ALL AROUND!!! I was passing by Redding and we stopped for lunch. The server was very kind. The food came on time and as ordered. Everything tasted delicious.
