12 Best Thai Restaurants near San Clemente

“Watching TV and saw Pad Thai and had to have some. Wanted chix/shrimp and couldn't get any of the platforms to give me that option. Pad thai near me got me to Thai Dara 2 and my order had lots of both perfectly cooked shrimp and big white meat chicken pieces. The order left me with enough for dinner. I will definitely be back.“

“I've been eating here for many months now. Tried many dishes, including their curries, fried fish cake appetizer, and pad kra pow. Really love their flavors. Nice staff too. The fried fish cake appetizer is my favorite. Growing up in Singapore, it reminds me of some of the flavors from there.“

“It has been a while since we were in, but the beautiful people that own and operate this fantastic restaurant are part of the heart and soul of San Clemente. From the moment you step through the door and greeted you feel at home. They create the most delectable appetizers, our favorite are the crispiest most delightful spring rolls to get you started. They cut them in sections so it’s an easy first date choice or like me lots of sharing with my hubby and friends, don’t miss the large coconut tomyomga soup. It comes to the table in a sizzling towering centerpiece. Enough to share. The drunken noodles were always on our table. We live far away now, but I dream of walking in and the aromas from the old recipes wafting from the kitchen, the fantastic silk shirt collection the host wears when he sweeps you to your table. Their radiant daughter taking your order and garbed in layers of colorful embroidered Thai gowns. Just a ten out of ten date night, family night, authentic to the core spot that makes you feel like you are part of the family. You are a gift Munghut Thai! Truly! Thank you for years of connection and bringing so much heritage culture and grace to the community. No one compares.“

We walked in to order to-go food and they seated us and brought us bottled water, again, service beyond compare. Now to the food, the Crispy Noodles (#1) are to die for...makes a great dessert. The Nutty Noodles chicken (#54) were great, and the Kiss Me Not garlic pork was so flavorful. They also included some tempura vegetables which were super yummy. So if you're looking for yummy food, at a great price, and with incredible service, Thai This should be your next dinner night out.“

“Thai Bite is one of the stronger Thai food options in the area, especially for takeout or a quick dine-in meal. It focuses on flavor and consistency without overextending the menu.

Dishes like pad thai, curries, and fried rice all come out well balanced. Portions are fair, and spice levels are customizable.

As someone who works locally, this is a practical recommendation when clients want something quick but still quality. Clients ask me about places like this when they’re looking for dependable takeout options.

Parking is easy, service is quick.

It’s a solid, repeatable choice.“

“We've been a Thai Bite customer for ten years and quality of food and service never diminish. They add new and delucious recipes to their ensemble every now and then that widens options and makes them more interesting.
No complaints just commendations.“
