50 Best Thai Restaurants near San Leandro

“New spot on San Leandro. Unique themed restaurant to take out but Out door area, there are many tables provided for you as well. Bamboo hut with wooden chairs and table. It's super cool and chic. Check it out!!!“

“First time trying Thai food. Asked for recommendations. Not only did our waitress give her recommendations but she told us what was popular and explained what was in every dish. She even brought me a sample to taste before ordering. 20/10 will be trying again!

Parking: The restaurant is in a corner of a very busy shopping center. Don't know if the limited parking is normal or an occasional thing, but it didn't take anything away from our experience!“

“Today, I discovered a Taishan-style restaurant. I haven’t seen it for a long time. It’s the taste of my childhood. You can add your favorite salty soup balls and ingredients according to your own taste. Their steamed rice is also pretty good, nutritious and delicious. Nothing I ordered was too bad, the dishes were rich and colorful, and the service was very good. I will try their rice bowls and skewers next time. The ones ordered by the next table looked very good, and they also have several nourishing soups. I recommend everyone to try it!“

“We brought our friend here to celebrate his birthday because we wanted to gift an experience. We saw you featured on Check Please . . . And you guys WOW’d us beyond our expectations!! Amazing staff! And amazing food . . And yes, amazing cocktails!! Down to the last finishing touches ! We will definitely be back !“

“wonderful owners. good concept.“

“Fantastic food and amazing service!!“

“I ordered takeout khao man gai and mango sticky rice and it was delicious! The sauces that go with the khao man gai were so falvorful and added so much depth to the dish. The mango sticky rice was also super good. The coconut sauce was sweet with a hint of saltiness to balance out the dish, and although mangos are not in season right now, the mangoes were still sweet. I would come back here and order something else on the menu because I would want to try what else they have :)“

“I really enjoyed dinner here ??. The appetizers were soooo good amd delicious ?, our main course was above and beyond amazing!!! We are very happy to have come and enjoy such wonderful, authentic, fresh food ?!!! Definitely will come back and refer my friends and family to this restaurant.“

“We got take out . All the stuff we ordered came correct . I thoroughly enjoyed this crab fried rice. The sauce it came with was a flavor bomb! My cousin is allergic to shellfish but it was so good he ate some anyways . I guess it was worth the runs. Their samosa , pad Thai and soups were great !“

“A cut above most mom & pop neighborhood Thai spots, yet still reasonably priced. Good food, nicely plated, nice staff.“

“Cool place (love the decor/style), nice staff & tasty food. Some dishes you will not find in the average Thai restaurant in the Bay Area. For example, the chef or owner is from northern Thailand so the menu features a top Northern Thai dish - Kao Soi noodle soup (beef or chicken), or the all time fav 'street food' grilled pork skewers (moo ping) served with sticky rice (ck out the menu on their website). I had the Pad Kemao Chicken (menu says beef but they are happy to make dishes with what you like & even have Beyond Meat dishes on the menu - cool to see stir fried basil with Beyond Meat (Krapao Beyond Neur)). The taste of my wok fried pad kemao was delicious, same or better than any I've had on prior trips to Bangkok. Glad to have discovered a solid Thai restaurant that doesn't have watered down flavors. Good to see they have a lot of gluten free and vegan choices on the menu too. Definitely will be back, keep up the good work!“

“Really tasty and inventive. Loved the yum pla muk..think that was my fave. Choo chee was also delicious though the baseline is a bit sweet. But don’t worry - I asked for a side of chilies and it was perfect!

More people need to come here! It’s real cute inside but atmosphere was a bit lacking since it was so empty!“

“Delicious food, great service, fun atmosphere!“

“The food was so bomb! It’s really amazing foood even it’s so prizey!“

“We got the green curry with beef instead of pork. It had broccoli, two squash pieces and a green chili in it. It was good. The sauce was on the thinner side and tasted nice. The meat was good.

The staff is so super friendly. Look forward to coming back and trying more dishes!

Parking: Park in their lot so your car doesn’t get bipped. It’s Oakland after all.“

“Our dining experience at Bangkok Garden last evening was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted by the warm smiles of the staff. They promptly escorted us to our table, where our orders were taken and served with remarkable efficiency. Accompanied by our two young children, who were exceptionally well-catered to, we indulged in a variety of dishes. The grilled chicken satay and the fresh spring rolls were the stars of the evening. It's certain that we will be returning for another memorable meal. Bangkok Garden comes highly recommended!“

“Had to take my daughter to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland and we were looking for a good place to have lunch before her appointment. My daughter spotted this restaurant and we are absolutely in love. Clean, comfortable eating area inside and outside. Variety on the menu and best Thai food we’ve eaten in a long time. Amazing flavors and portions are just right. And let’s not forget the Thai tea, best everrr! Seriously highly recommend for lunch and dinner if you are in the Oakland area.“

“I have been a loyal customer since the establishment opened. It is one of my preferred dining establishments in the Bay Area. The food is quite satisfactory, but it fluctuates. It is imperative to note that they do not have air conditioning during the hot summer months. It is hoped that this issue will be resolved by the forthcoming summer. It is crucial to book a large group's table. This establishment is somewhat expensive, so it is advisable to be prepared. With some of the dishes, the portions are quite small, such as their fried calamari, but they are quite tasty. Highly recommend! So give it a shot!“

“Always the best food and best service. May has done a fantastically amazing job of improving an already fantastic offering. Thank you may for the wonderful dining experiences“

“As an Asian person - so good, tastes authentic! Drunken noodle with tofu is delicious and full flavor, tofu holds that flavor, very moist. Good spice, Asian scale, I got mild and it provides a nice but not overwhelming after flavor. 10 min takeout at less busy hour. Looked like a cute indoor sit down area though I did not choose that. $13 before tax + tip. Vegan.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian available most dishes, like tofu.“

“Tried out their veggies options, and was delish. I liked that they can make their entrees gluten-free. Ordered the Cashew nuts and the Basil stir fry. Both were similar with the exception of the basil flavored in the later one. Not sure if they have a parking lot though. I found parking on the street.“

“The standard Thai menu items like green curry and pad see ew were unusually good. The “Thai home cooking” menu items like “mee cook”and “custard bread” dessert were bland and not tasty.“

“What could be better on a rainy autumn day than a bowl of hot and sour soup with udon noodles, crispy pork and more? I loved this place. The food was fresh and delicious and the service was above and beyond attentive. I also loved all the healthy potted plants which gives the Noodle Lover Club a jungle vibe.“

“This was our 3rd visit and it was excellent. Our prior visits were 1 excellent and the 2nd, just OK. We decided to give Chao Thai another try and we're still talking about the Tum Kak Gai that was exceptional.Our only disappointment (minor) was I ordered the chef's seafood special but received a chicken & green bean dish that, while unexpected, was great. Next time I'll order by number to avoid confusion.In case you're wondering the guest check was accurate for the food delivered.We'll be back“

“The food is very good, as are the prices. Duck curry is excellent, although they could be a tiny bit more generous with the duck. A sense of authentic Thai cuisine and culture right down to the seasoning and herbal tea leaves.

Vegetarian options: A few vegetarian options.

Wheelchair accessibility: Door seems wide enough. No stairs. Some tables accessible from the doorway. It is a relatively small restaurant.“

“It’s a wonderful place to satisfy your cravings for Thai cuisine. The cozy and clean atmosphere with friendly staff adds to the overall dining experience.“

“Wow. Drunken beef, chicken with green beans, and chicken satay were all amazing, Coming back next week with colleagues.“

“Best food ever... Best place ever... I love this place..“

“My son and I were the first customers of the day and we were greeted so pleasantly as well as asked immediately if we’d like to see all the specials I love this place and frequent it often It never disappoints , the food was delicious and served promptly...I recommend it to anyone“

“Thai is my favorite cuisine and this place never disappoints. I have yet to find a better thai restaurant in the bay area and even in the US. The tom yum soup is top notch. Their pad thai is incredible. The only complaint I have is that they can never manage to make the food spicy enough, but to be fair, nobody is able to make it spicy enough for me.“

“Omfg. Want Michelin star level food in delightfully casual digs at normal-people prices? This is your spot. Just had the most melt-in-your-mouth brisket bowl. Beef was eye-wateringly delicious. Veggies steamed to a crunchy perfection. Jasmine rice fluffy. Annoying work day forgotten! Was going to take it to go and ended up staying to eat, drink some rose, and chill out in the cute surroundings. Officially one of my new fave spots“

“one at the best place in lake Merritt to enjoy delicious and flavoring Thai food muchas gracias“

“This place is VERY CONSISTENT!!! The food is ALWAYS fresh and prepared well. I have yet to be disappointed. The staff remembers you and treats you like a special guest EVERY TIME“

“Probably the best Thai food I have ever had!“

“With the Mandatory Shelter in Place, I wanted to make sure that EVERYONE knew that Summer Summer Thai Eatery is still OPEN for take out or delivery. This is our (my boyfriend and I) FAVORITE place to go to, usually for dine in, and we’re doing everything we can to help small businesses stay afloat during these unprecedented times. Give them a call or order on Caviar or Door Dash for Take Out ONLY. Pictures from our take out dinner tonight - Summer Summer Rolls, Albacore Carpacio, Mild Drunken Noodle and Crab Rangoon. Its just the 2 of us and we have leftovers.“

“Very nice and welcoming staff!Ordered takeout on a slow night and felt very calm while waiting for my food.I had the pad see ew with pork and the spicy basil with chicken. Good amount of spice for me with an average spice tolerance palette. Lasted me two meals!“

“I recently dined at this Thai restaurant and loved it! The egg rolls, mango curry, and drunken noodles were all tasty and filling with generous portions. The Thai tea wasn't great, but it didn't spoil the experience. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Great place to start your night , or end it , open till 10:00“

“Food is always excellent! And the staff is always amazingly friendly and wonderful!“

“This is a nice Thai BBQ place. We got Phad See-Ew with chicken, Chef's Special Seafood Combo Plate which came with Shrimps, scallops, mussels, squid. Fried shrimp & fried calamari, with a chicken fried rice. Everything was good except I felt the fried calamari and fried shrimp had to much breading on them we ended taking some of the breading off. Overall everything had good flavor, also the prices listed online are not the correct prices in store.“

“I dine in this great restaurant quite a bit! This is my favorite restaurant to dine. I visit this spot routinely. The food is just great, the team is professional and the rates are affordable. I like eating in this place over a nice supper.“

“My favorite Thai spot. I've been coming here for years and never disappointed with the food. I love the chicken satay and Beef salad. Service is always good since I've never seen more than 3 customers dining in. Mostly take out and doordash orders.“

“I saw someome make a TikTok about this place and immediately knew I had to add that to my list. I headed out to Berkeley on a Friday morning to try it out and I bought a friend who isnt a big fan of Thai and or Asian food. I was thankful to experience this style of northern Thai cuisine I believe the order Tanzie referred to it as. The hospitality and service was above average. I enjoyed all of my food and so did my friend. The pork jowl was agreed to be are favorite out of the all the dishes we tried. Very juicy , flavorful and just all around deliscious topped off with that crispy fried garlic. The brown rice over that soft scrambled "lava egg" was to die for paired with the savory tomato based minced pork that I ordered extra spicy of course. The star of the show that me and my friend both agreed on had to be the "prik nam pla" which I would describe as a sweet and spicy vinegar or fish sauce based dipping sauce accompanied by a nice punch of spice from the thai chili peppers. I dont have any complaints whatsoever and I will definitely be back.“

“The praram sauce was delicious. They made the sauce vegetarian on request and it was absolutely delicious despite a modification. The veggies in the praram vegetables dish were cooked to perfection as well. Waiting for next visit 🤤

Vegetarian options: Truly vegetarian alternatives on request. At a lot of places the vegetarian swaps taste fishy (pun unintended). No such thing here, their vegetarian dishes are truly free from meat/fish. Thank u Pagarung 🙏“

“Me and my co - workers loved the food that we ordered. We definitely come back and recommend“

“Golden squid and Garlic Shrimp and Scallop“

“Haven't been to Chai Thai Noodle for a while, way before the pandemic. Probably 5-6 years, sister said they have $5 happy hour noodles samplers (4 kinds of noodles- see photos for the specials).I suggested order 2 different bowls of noodles per person if you're hungry, that's only $10! The boat noodles were our favorites.“

“Great place to enjoy a great dinner“

“Everything we’ve had here is so delicious!!! Our faves are the Tom Kha soup, BMV platter, Pad Kee Mao, Chicken Satay, and Mango sticky rice dessert…all so very yummy!!!“

“I am Laotian and can speak that the food here is authentic. My go to place! Like coming home to a home cooked Laotian meal. In the back cooking your food are aunties and grandmas, no wonder the food is so delicious and authentic. Love this place!!!“
