50 Best Thai Restaurants near San Pablo

“Moved out of San Pablo for awhile, came back and I knew first thing I wanted to eat was the pad Thai, chicken satay and to finish it off a plate of mango w/ sticky rice and coconut milk with a glass of Thai ice tea. Was literally like $35. Pretty cheap for really great food I’ve seen worse prices lol
Also the owners/staff is always always great. Don’t listen to these people they’re not rude, I’ve been coming here since I was 12 years old I’m 24 now. Do I know their names? Nope. do they know me ? Nope. Just go already Jesus Christ. It’s delicious. Don’t get too spicy if you do good luck.“

“We’ve been coming to Noodle 21 for over 5 years now, and it continues to be one of our favorite spots! My husband introduced me to this place, and over time I found my perfect pho order — #21 with thin egg noodles, no bean sprouts, and soup on the side.

Back in August 2024, the original owner told us he was leaving and passing the business on to his partner. He was always so kind, always made time to chat with us, and greeted us warmly every visit. I was pregnant at the time, so sadly, he never got to meet our baby — but we’re happy to say we’ve kept coming back and still love it just as much as day one.

The staff now is just as welcoming. They remember us, they remember our baby, and it truly feels like a place that values its regulars. The food is consistently delicious, and the atmosphere is comforting and familiar. We’re so glad this spot continues to thrive, and we look forward to many more meals here as a family.“

“wonderful owners. good concept.“

“Delicious ! Good service nice atmosphere. Honestly the 4 stars is pretty unfair because the food was great , but it was not spicy at all and they didn’t ask about spice levels when they took our order. Great specials I was really blown away you deserve 5 stars but it was so good I just wanted it to be a little better 🌶️ next time I’ll ask about that when I order.“

“The house curry with seafood was AMAZING!!! The seafood was incredibly fresh and the flavor of the curry was PERFECT! I also ordered the crab rangoons - made with real crab meat and the filling was buttery. I’ve never experienced crab rangoons that good! The host, a gentleman, always cracks me up! He’s such a pleasure to chat with.“

“Fantastic food and amazing service!!“

“This is a hidden gem of a place!!! It's so delightfully cute outside on the patio and the food is scrumptious!!!! The Massaman is crave worthy as I have now had this several times and each time, it doesn't disappoint and you can ask for whatever spice level you can manage. I LOVE this place and its truly the best Thai I have ever had anywhere in the country!!“

“So love this place! Food extremely fresh. First recommended and ordered by another, I sought it out again for lunch. Delightful. Took unused veggies and rice home which was great the next day.“

“Loved the decor and the vibe，great place to hang out with friends.The food was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot on.If you're in the area, this place is a must-try!“

“Sometimes you’re in the mood for Crab Rangoon AND Tom Kha Soup. Both of these dishes exceed expectations at Bangkok Garden. I’ve only ever done take out and have had quite a few of their dishes - all of which have been solid. But their unique and kind of tangy sweet Crab Rangoon and their Tom Kha Soup really are special. I also appreciate how their spice level is consistent and real (like a 2 has some heat to it!). Definitely recommend.“

“boat noodle soup rice ball salad larb fish is my favorite 1|2 lemongrass chicken papaya salad sticky rice“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem, run by a very kind, cheerful man who’s a fantastic host. The food is delicious and generous, and the menu is flexible—especially for vegetarians, with no extra charges. Plus, it has its own parking! It’s my third time here, and I’m absolutely delighted!“

“I love Thai food, and I've had a lot of it. I've never been *surprised* by it until I ate at Payakk. Intensely flavorful, vibrant dishes that make all of the flavors pop. Note that they currently don't have a beer or wine license, so no drinks at the moment.“

“This is the best Thai restaurant I’ve been to in the East Bay. So I and my friends keep coming back. The dishes are really well done, and the portions are quite good too. While, it can get a little noisy when it’s full, most of the time it’s OK. I particularly love the corn cheese fritters, the jumbo garlic, shrimp, the exquisite, coconut soup, and the ginger dish. The wait staff have been universally considerate and excellent.“

“Oh how I miss Anchalee! Beautiful cozy decor and the food is amazing. I have great memories of this place. Time to make my way back to enjoy.“

“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 got the jade curry and Thai curry puff along with a smoothie. The experience was nice, food was good and our server James was very attentive and friendly. If you’re in the area be sure to check it out!“

“Food was amazing. I hope your servers and cooks are paid well. It was significantly understaffed and the staff there were working so hard and doing amazing but I felt for them. To whoever owns this, you are asking too much of your staff. There were 1.5 ppl serving a full restaurant and servicing online and call-in orders. Get them support and please pay them well.“

“Great food and service. My earring came off during dinner and I didn’t discover that it was missing until I got home. I called the next day and they went out of their way to find my favorite Christmas earring.“

“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“

“Great food and service, would recommend, love it 😋“

“Mmmm. I'm so happy to find a Thai restaurant that focuses more on the savory than the sugar to flavor the food. Our meal was delicious. Right away when we walked in the vibe of the place made us feel relaxed and cozy. The vintage juke box in the back corner helped a lot. The proprietors are totally hip and laid back. Somehow our group ordered mild versions of dishes (we all thought the other was a light weight), which turned out to be lucky because the house made chili crunch we were provided to remedy the situation was incredible. We got the pumpkin curry, the eggplant street food thing, and best of all was the Sea Bass dish, but all addictive. We went brown on the rice, and it was perfectly cooked. Several items on the menu were well marked as GF, but they were able to make some items GF that weren't meant to be that way (for one of us who is celiac), and the dishes didn't seem to suffer at all. Can't wait to try the glutenous version. I don't typically write reviews (as you can probably tell) but I do on occasion when I want to support a business I hope will stick around (totally selfish motives).“

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

“This restaurant was close to my hotel. I was so excited to try their Khao Man Gai ( Thai Chicken Rice). And it didn’t disappoint me. I got the mixed chicken one and order liver on the side. Their sauce is great. The taste is very authentic and reminds me of home. The real Thai chicken rice is served with soup and they do!
Service part : they have a screen that you need to order yourself. Staff is nice.“

“My family loves Bangkok Thai. The yellow pumpkin curry is delicious, as are the salads, pad Thai, pad see-ew, fried rice, spring rolls, and fried banana with coconut ice cream for dessert. It’s a great place to celebrate a special occasion or just to gather with friends. We will be back soon. 💜❤️💚“

“Nice, located of Willow shopping center. Several eateries nearby including a drive in Starbucks. I looked around and decided to go for the Won Thai restaurant, ordered the lunch special, fried catfish with rice, on the plate I got a colorful plate with a scoop of steam rice next to pan fried filet of catfish with plenty of green beans, fresh tomato pieces, sautéed on a lite curry sauce and sliced purple and green cabbage garnish.“

“I rarely eat in here, but when I do I enjoy the atmosphere and service. Much more frequently, I do take out, and it is always great. The ingredients taste fresh and perfectly seasoned, and it is always on time. HB is probably my favorite spot for take out in Oakland.“

“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.“

“AAAAHHHHH-MAZING FOOD♡ MY HUSBAND AND MY FAVORITE NIGHT OUT DINNER PLACE♡♡“

“I definitely enjoyed the Mango Fried rice dish along with the garlic noodles. Had Thai Iced Tea, which is always a treat. I did call this order in for pick up. When I got there I had to wait a minute, because they were busy but it wasn't long. They gave me an extra Thai iced tea on the house, I didn't need it. Yet it shows the type of business I'm eating at. The ambiance is very welcoming. The art work on the walls of the culture is beautiful. Would recommend friends/family to come and try this place out.“

“first time eating here. great place, great food. Nadir was very attentive and made sure everything was going well“

“Think what a great Thai restaurant should be? and Summer Summer is that!“

“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!“

“This is the best Thai restaurant in the East Bay!! Their dishes are truly a form of art! You can tell they put so much love into their dishes, and it tasted AMAZING. We always order the papaya salad (Thai style, but there's also a Laos style!) and the fried rice. The pad Thai is also amazing! 10/10“

“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“

“The food is amazing! We had a great experience“

“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.“

“The food is great and friendly service! It’s my go to place whenever I’m in Sausalito..“

“We had dinner on Saturday night, restaurant was not crowded however we understand that the staff was dealing with take out orders. Service was very slow for our order which seemed pretty straightforward: a soup and padthai. Other guests were served more quickly; people at the next table ordered just before we did, got their food, ate and left beforewe got our food?!? On another note, we were not able to dine on the terrasse since it was a bit chilly and there is only one heater that is broken. Buying more heaters should be made a priority. This said, the food was delicious and tasted very fresh. We all loved it. So highly recommend for the food and maybe ordering as take out, only!“

“I usually order the basil chicken or the green curries but everything is good there. Be careful if you request spicy, mom in kitchen will think you want it “Thai spicy” if you don’t elaborate. Thai spicy dropped me and I love spicy. 😂“

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

“Found them on Groupon! They did not disappoint! awesome food and service. definitely will be returning!“

“Drunken noodles were amazing. Curry chicken was ok. Fried rice was ok. Slightly pricey (almost $3 for a small bowl of white rice). Soup was not very good.

They have a limited and pricey alcohol menu, but the servers know almost nothing about drinks.

If you find the right dish, and aren't looking for drinks, it is an ok place to eat. Servers are friendly.“

“This restaurant has been on my want to go list, so I was excited to try it out!

We ordered the Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles) and the Gang Khew-Wan (Green Curry).

The Pad Kee Mao was tasty, the flavor leaned slightly toward to a sweeter, tomato flavor side, but it was still enjoyable.

The Green curry came with generous portion and was really flavorful. I especially really liked the eggplants, the texture was great and the seasoning was on spot!“

“Authentic fresh ingredients/spices, excellent customer services and now my fav thai restaurant ! If you haven’t tried it do so soon😋“

“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 🙏“

“With a kitchen that's operating with the precision of a clock, the noodle Thai restaurant serves combo noodle plates and more packed with flavor all for low prices. The staff is really nice, the food is fresh and tasty, and I'm glad this place is here now that Bangkok noodle that was down the block closed.
Highly recommended!“

“Good food & Good service 👌🏼“

“My favorite is Su Kho Thai...A hot and sour soup base with rice noodles, ground pork, pork, crispies. Great for a cold day like today.“
