26 Best Thai Restaurants near San Mateo

“Very tasty Pad Thai! Delicious food!

The waiter was the worst service i've ever had, he didn't even put in my food order, he didn't even come to give us a check , we had to go back and forth and ask for dessert at the counter. And as we left , he didn't even say thank you.

But I want to say that we had the best busser ever! He filled our waters constantly, he noticed that I wasn't getting my food and checked on me, and he's packed my food up. He actually cared about our family and our food and our experience. So thank you to him, he saved our experience.“

“Easily one of the top 5 pho bowls I’ve had an I’m Vietnamese. I had a lot of doubts about so many different Asian ethnicities represented as dishes here but from the few we samples (Japanese, viet, Thai), it did not disappoint. Also the craft beer selection is *chefs kiss*

Bonus points: 👧🏻 tolerant restaurant“

“A cute little restaurant with a lot of soul and delicious food!! The woman who served us was really nice, the place is very clean, the menu has a variety of options and there is a really good vibe.

My husband ordered the basil fried rice with a moderate level of spiciness. He loved it, although it was still a little too spicy for him. Next time he will ask for less spicy. I ordered Kao Moo Dang and it was delicious! It is sweetly spiced and there is also a sweet and slightly spicy sauce that comes on the side. To finish, we ordered an egg tart. I could eat it every day!

Overall, we both enjoyed it very much and there are many more options that I want to try. We will definitely be back!“

“Excellent, creative dishes! Good service!! 10 stars!!!“

“Best Thai place i have been too! Great food and even better owners!!“

“Top notch home style Thai food, not sure I need to say more.

It's different enough from what you'd get at a restaurant, and very delicious! We're longtime fans of their pad see ew, pad Thai and (in particular) their khao soi, which they unfortunately run out of sometimes so come early! The staff are very friendly and happy to accommodate pure veg food requests as well.“

“food and service is superb! number 1“

“I’m Thai and my family was in the restaurant business so I know Thai food. Our group of over 10 people dined here today. Food was great. It was a team event so we requested a prix fixe menu and budget control. The restaurant was very responsive and go above and beyond to help us with the arrangements. The menu options was good. We had some vegans in the group and vegan options were good too. Everyone in my team loved it. Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“Everything is fine, yeah, everything 👍😍😍“

“If you are looking for truly authentic Thai flavors, this place is an absolute must-visit! They capture the essence of regional dishes perfectly, especially if you love the bold, fiery kick of Southern Thai food.
​A few personal favorites that I highly recommend:
​Moo Hong: The pork belly is incredibly tender, rich, and perfectly sweet and savory.
​Gai Tod Hat Yai: Super crispy, deeply flavorful Southern-style fried chicken that is absolutely addictive.
​Khua Kling: A must-order if you appreciate the intense, aromatic spice of a traditional Southern dry curry.
​My friends also joined me and completely fell in love with their Pad Gra Pow, which has the perfect amount of basil and spice, and their Larb Spring Rolls—such a clever and delicious twist on classic flavors.
​Whether you're craving comforting classics or punchy regional specialties, this spot completely delivers. Highly recommend!“

“Best Thai ever and we've done a fair bit of Thai in our time.“

“We walked in for a quick munch. Surprisingly we were the only ones there at 2pm. Service is great!“

“I've been here a couple times, and enjoyed both meals here. The papaya salad, pad Thai, and pad Kee mao have been consistently delicious. The larb was also good, but sooo spicy we almost died (I'd still get it again though).

It looks like the negative reviews have been primarily for delivery, but I'll go ahead and say that the dine-in experience has been quite good. The portions are pretty big as well.“
