“The Thai food here is fresh, well-made, with a broad range of menu options. The service is good though expect a crowded restaurant experience less like a gourmet restaurant and more like a weekday option out, The physical restaurant has booths and tables. Nothing fancy here just good tasting Thai food. You will enjoy.Vegetarian options: Good array of meat free noodle based options.“
“This place is so cute! It reminds me of a hipster joint you would find in LA or Tokyo. They play funky music and offer happy hour everyday 8pm to close and you get $2 off munchies (their version of appetizers or small plates) and $1 off drinks. The food can be pretty spicy. For example, the drunken noodles were like a 7/10 on spice level. The boat noodle soup was loaded with robust flavor. The fried chicken wings appetizer was moist with a sweet and tangy sauce. They offer a variety of drinks from Thai tea to fresh coconut as well as unique desserts! I've been to Thailand and some of the best Thai restaurants in LA and OC and this place ranks among them for their creativity and uniqueness. The service is good and everything came out in good time. Another plus is that they provided eco-friendly to go packaging AND their water is fresh and clean! Didn't taste like tap water! I'd come back to try their other foods but make sure that the spice is not as intense.“
“The place was empty when we came in, but all the food was incredible and the service was good. Portion sizes were also large. Everything was great, but you should know that it can be a bit too spicy, so keep that in mind. The room is nice, and quiet— this was an overall very positive experience.“
“Every Once in a While the Best Surprise is One You Never Saw Coming! The Bowl & Plate Eatery is Exactly That!!! Driving south on Magnolia Street in Anaheim Sunday, Feb. 25 around 6pm. Just before I reached Ball Road, I remembered there used to be a 'hole-in-the-wall' Italian restaurant tucked into the northeast corner of a little strip mall there. It's been a while so I wasn't sure what I'd find but I made the left turn into the parking lot to explore. No more Italian restaurant (sigh). But in its place I see a quaint looking sign proclaiming the new establishment's name: The Bowl & Plate Eatery. Some quick Internet searching gave sufficient details to convince me to enter...that and my growling stomach! A tasteful and minimalist small dining area offered seating for perhaps 15 guests. Upon my arrival this particular Sunday evening, I was one of three. The owner gestured for me to take a seat, brought over a menu and offered a smile so warm and bright I knew she loved what she was creating here. Seriously, her exuberance was evident in abundance. I'm now even more convinced I made the right choice for this evening's dinner. I won't list the whole menu but I will speak of my selections: - Chicken Vegetable Dumplings - Steak Salad - Choco Roti with Ice Cream Everything is infused with blended Asian flavors. The dumplings were perfectly seared on the bottom, offering a nice crispy-crunch with every bite. Their dipping sauce added just the right amount of 'Zip!' without being overpowering. The steak salad was heaping with fresh leafy greens of several varieties and the steak bites were perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned. The Choco Roti with ice cream was a last minute addition and WOW! am I glad I did. Small wedges of delicately toasted flat bread, drizzled with sweet icings and a touch of cinnamon, served with a healthy scoop of vanilla ice cream, also drizzled with icing. A great combination of sweetness and savory to end a fantastic meal. Mind you, The Bowl & Plate Eatery is not staffed by a team of experts, cranking out cookie-cutter meals-o-plenty. No No! It was staffed by the owner of that amazing smile, who also happens to own the restaurant. She handled it all, from greeting and seating, to explaining, order taking, meal preparing and serving. She's even her own busboy! And all of it in a timely, orderly manner. No rushing nor resting. A model of efficiency and a skilled chef t'boot. No need to ask if I will return. I will have to add this to my monthly restaurant sojourn list. The owner said she's been there for 3 years now and I fault myself for not discovering The Bowl & Plate sooner. And please note, this is not the steam-table Asian food take-out style place. This is well-crafted dishes prepared with passion and heaped with love of craft. Yes, you'll pay a bit more for this but with every bite you'll know it is So, SO Worth It! I'm hopeful The Bowl & Plate is well-visited to keep it in business. This level of original and fresh is rare indeed. I'll keep doing my part! Now it's your turn! Get to The Bowl & Plate for lunch or dinner today!“
“Amazing food, reasonably priced and exceptional customer service! What a great spot to eat while out at Disneyland to visit. The place itself is a cute spot. Will definitely be back next time we are in the area! **shrimp panang curry was our favorite dish!“
“Hadn’t been here in years. Have no idea why I’ve deprived myself of such great food!! Can’t beat the sunrise roll. Albacore sashimi was fresh and buttery. Staff was friendly and quick to seat and serve us. Love the art on the wall. Even background music was enjoyable. Great place for date night. Def adding back to our date night list!“
“I wanted to try out this place as I kept passing by and have been intrigued. I ordered something simple, pad Thai spicy. I felt the noodles all stuck together and was lacking sauce. It wasn't very spicy and pretty bland. I expected much better.“
“This is by far the best Thai cuisine I’ve ever had. They have many types of curries, but my favorite has been the Panang and pineapple curries. Very good place if you love hot comfort food. The portions are big too with lots of perfectly cooked rice on the side. The atmosphere is very upbeat and busy. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: Have the option for tofu“
“I really enjoyed eating at Real Thai. The employees were welcoming and I felt like I was eating at home. The food was also amazing; I ordered the Spicy Fried Rice with Medium spice and it was very good. Definitely recommend to friends and family.“
“Solid Thai spot in Cypress! The food was very good and their chili powder is super spicy. If you get the lunch special, it is $2 cheaper and comes with ice cream and salad, but the portion is slightly smaller. The pad see ew was very flavorful, and even though tofu isn't on the menu it is an option for protein.“
“I've been here a few times, and in these times, I've had the lunch special. It was price well. It comes with a drink of your choice, which I had Thai Ice Tea. It also comes with a salad and 2 dumplings. I would recommend this place.“
“Great place for Thai food if you are in the area. They make flavorful and savory options with mix spice levels as requested. Staff is super friendly and clean restroom. Limited parking spots closeby in the complex.Vegetarian options: You can always substitute meat for veggies and or tofu.“
“One of the best Thai restaurants here in Orange County. Freshness is important with Thai food, and even after delivery, vegetables and entrées were not soggy. Tons of flavor and authentic Thai cooking. Very similar to the Thai restaurants I’ve tried in Asia.“
“Food is good and flavorful, and it was ready in 5 minutes.However I find the portion a bit too small for the price, at least for the house special boat noodle which is about 18 dollars. It had quite a lot of meat but the amount of noodles was quite small and I wasn't able to be full.“
“Placed a large catering order for a corporate lunch event and the owner was so accommodating to our needs! They opened the kitchen early for us so that I could pick up the food earlier so that it could be ready in time for our corporate event at noon. The food was delicious. Everything was packed nicely. They even provided plenty of forks and napkins. Thank you so much!“

“Happened to be in the neighborhood, so thought we'd give it a try.We ordered green curry, pad krapow and grilled beef "crying tiger."Green curry was good. Pad krapow was the best. It has just the right punch to it; very flavorful. Sadly the grilled beef was chewy and overcooked. It was so overcooked that it tasted more like beef jerky. A big disappointment.We will come back for the pad krapow and will try some other dishes.“
“It's been a few years since we'd been here...why??!!! It was so great. Both the panang curry and yellow chicken curry are so flavorful with just the right amount of heat. Beautiful presentation as well! Kind customer service. Will be back soon!“
“The food here is delicious! The price and portions are good too! We got yellow curry, pineapple curry, Pad Thai, Pad see ew, and Drunken Noodles, it was all amazing! I will definitely come back to eat here the food had rich and delicious flavors! I highly recommend this place“
“Great dining experience! The restaurant is so well designed and trendy. The food was fresh, delicious, and truly memorable! Service was very quick and our waitress was so kind and accommodating. We had a delicious dinner and even our doggy enjoyed his time here. Will surely be back!“
“This place stands up to all the hype. Just some of the best Laotian + Thai food, all the flavors are peak umami. Try the fried fish dishes, the Tom ka gai (just the right amount of sweetness), and the amazingly fresh and perfectly seasoned morning glory if they have it (you might have to go earlier in the day, we only got some on our second visit). The laab is also perfection. Go go!“
“What a lovely quaint Thai restaurant I stumbled upon. I was in the area for a delivery and stopped in to have some lunch. It was very peaceful in there, the staff were friendly. I ordered the glass noodle soup and it was very flavorful, not to mention only $8! They also give you a generous amount of chicken in the soup which is always a plus. Overall great experience.“
“My go-to spot for Thai food. I've been coming here for years and have never been disappointed. My personal favorites are the papaya salad, the panag curry, Tom kha soup, and the Thai boat noodle soup. The staff is very attentive and friendly.“
“I always order out and have only tried their Pad Thai , I must say it is the best I had in the area close to our house. I appreciate the fact that they are very honest and upfront about their wait times, just be sure to double check your take out orders for any errors.“
“We always come here when we crave Thai! It’s a clean place, they always have fresh flowers so it smells nice, it’s a family business and they always remember us and are very friendly and attentive.The food is delicious and plates are quite plentiful!Kid-friendliness: They always serve our kid with kid utensils and our kid really likes going there“
“Thai Perfection: Panang Curry with Hanger ⭐️Hanuman Thai Eatery has become our favorite Thai spot, thanks to their divine Panang Curry with Hanger Steak. Despite the bustling atmosphere and sometimes lengthy wait times of 45 to 90 minutes, this dish makes every minute worth it.The curry sauce is an explosion of flavor, perfectly paired with tender hanger steak cooked to medium rare perfection. Each bite leaves us craving more, making it a weekly indulgence we simply can't resist.Appetizers: green papaya salad, ceviche, chicken satay and soup is very good as well.if you're willing to endure a wait for a taste of culinary heaven, the Panang Curry with Hanger Steak at Hanuman Thai Eatery is an absolute must-try.“
“First time ordering thru door dash minutes before closing without realizing and they were so nice when I called to get chili sauce on the side as that option was not available on the app. Sorry for the late order, won’t do it again but thank you for being so nice.“
“I have only ordered delivery, I love the egg rolls, I've tried the crying tiger, yellow curry, green curry and pineapple rice and it's all really good. The service is always pretty quick even during rush hour and it's fresh. Want to try the banana samosa next time. Definitely will keep coming back.“
“Some of my favorite yellow curry and pad thai around! I always get the peanut sauce to add to my noodles. They always remember to fry the tofu when I put it in the description. I usually doordash but I walked in the other day and it was so nice inside! My only wish would be to have a little more rice come with the curry.“
“The best Thai noddles I ever had! I believe this is the house special noddle soup. The waiter also severed me the sour chilis and chill pastes which I added to my soup . The wontons are filled with pork which is a surprise cuz normally Thai restaurants only put fried wonton wrappers. Definitely come back!“
“I love this place! I had my birthday lunch here recently because it's my favorite Thai place in Orange County maybe even Southern California. The place is small, you order at the counter and can always expect good food. Honestly it never misses. The food portions are generous, staff is friendly, and miss loving close to this spot.“
“I can't believe that I had never heard of this spot before and can thank Reddit for this amazing find! How often can you find something for under $10 nowadays. While it is cash only, there are so many options available that it totally makes up for it. I came in on a Saturday around 2pm so there wasn't a ton of assortment left (out of eggplant) so I picked the chicken larb, green curry and pork ribs. All of the food was solid and I loved that you can eat different Thai dishes versus when you normally order takeout, you kind of committed to one dish. I loved the portion and the flavors of all the dishes. There are so many grand and go options available too. I will definitely be back again to try other dishes!“
“Hey Foodies ❤️ if you're looking for a place where Thai meets seafood in a bag, Nine Seafood Restaurant is where it's at. Best time to go before things really get jumping on a Saturday is about 4/4:30pm. After that you will blink and see half the place start to fill up. When I came in I was greeted, and ask to hang out for my table to be prepped. Just a few minutes and away we go. The customer service by far is a 10 double ++ for those of you who are not used to being tended too, asking if you need anything during your time at an eating establishment you are in for a treat. The host, server, etc were very sweet and sincere. To the food.....I'm sorry my tastebuds just had a flashback. Where do I start? The flavors were bold and complimented one another something fierce, I had a Brazilian Carnival going on in my mouth. We started with the Edamames with a cajun seasoning. I was stuck here a while, even when our food came i was still going through them. Next was the curry. The yellow curry was rich, smooth with chunky potato and big juicy shrimps. I poured this delectable treat over my seafood fried rice which sent me to another dimension of tastebud euphoria. The class, mussels, shrimp, crab was just mmmmm mmm. Finally we had the Pad See Ew Combo with flat noodles, Broccoli and egg yummy. I mixed this in with the yellow curry, can somebody give me a ride home because I feel a food coma coming. Absolutely loved every dish presented, this hidden gem is a golden nugget. I wish them much success, blessings and favor to the employees and management of this establishment in Jesus name for your work shall not be in vain. May your fruits continue to bear in and out of season.“
“One of my favorite Thai food restaurants in this area (and there are A LOT of around) that I will continue to frequent. It's not fancy inside, just a sit-down casual, homey feel. They serve lunch specials every day, Monday to Sunday with great options such as Crying Tiger, Prik King, and all the curries. My kids enjoy the regular entree size pad see eew. A win for my family.“
“My friends and I love this place! Vietnamese home-style cooking. Sooo comforting—the flavors hit the spot and remind us of home and of our childhood. My go-to here are the fish, ong choy salad with beef, the pea sprouts, and the fish in like a lemongrass sauté. They have a Japanese purple root soup which is not widely available even in Bolsa. We always feast when we come here.“
“OMG??? EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD??? Okay let me go in order. The Thai tea.. was the best Thai tea I've had in so long, and for the portion the price was just right in my opinion just as the other meals, PLENTY FOOD FOR SUCH REASONABLE PRICES IS CRAZY THESE DAYS. I got the kimchi tom yum, and omg. See I'm not s big soup person unless it's pho, and this tom up was so good you guys. SO GOOD. It was the right amount of spicy and sour and the kimchi tasted so fresh. We also got the cucumber salad, and this was new to me because I usually get cucumber salad at restaurants but the style, presentation, and taste was completely new. I liked it I definitely did enjoy it, it's my second favorite kind of cucumber salad right now. I also got the cream cheese wontons, the crispyness of the wonton itself was decent and the cheese was so smooth I enjoyed it AND IT WASNT ONLY 4 PEICES GUYS THIS IS IMPORTANT IT WAS LIKE 8 FOR AROUND 8 BUCKS??? WOW. My boyfriend got the pineapple fried rice, I'm not s big fan or fried rice or anything but he really liked it and it was a big portion and he almost finished all of it. I ASKED FOR BOXES FOR EVERYTHING BECAUSE GOOD FOOD LIKE THAT SHOULDNT BE LEFT BEHIND. The atmosphere was super calm and I really enjoyed myself please this place deserves an award.“
“Came here today with my husband. He LOVE the chicken massaman curry! and mine was Beef Thai Boat Noodles, recommend to try if you like flavorful taste (they will give you the things to adjust your flavor as you like but the base is also good). Service was lovely!“
“Love Thai and the drunken noodles are my favorite specially spicy with shrimpAnd #4 season wow I drove from lemoore that’s 4 hours away this place is worthy of it and it has a tv where u can watch family feud and eat at the same timeWheelchair accessibility: It has handicap parking and wheelchair accessible I’m disabled I have a prosthetic leg and the walk from parking to front door is not far at all“
“I'm not exaggerating when I say this, but this is the best Thai food restaurant around. We order from Thai Pepper 2-3 times a month and the quality is always consistent and delicious.The pad thai, pad see ew, spicy green beans, and orange chicken are a must try.“
“Hidden gem in Santa Ana. It is located in a building called Maker Kitchens. I ordered their Special Promotion, Pad Thai with egg roll and salad...tasted great and such a good deal for $12.45. The pad thai was flavorful. I also ordered the shrimp Tom yum soup, very delicious as well. Will definitely be coming back!“
“Wow! I'm not sure where to start. Other than this place is amazing. I ordered a chicken teriyaki bowl. So let me say I was impressed. At first, i was kind of regretful. i didn't sit in and eat because of the veggies. i thought they would be soggie, but no, they were still crispy. An other think I loved was that the chicken was cooked over an open flame.and then it was packed. The meat and veggies were separate, so my rice was also still fresh. Following that the serving size I my opion was very fair. They are not gready. Furthermore. They are really polite, but as always, don't just take my word for it. Give it a try.“
“Ordered pickup (now twice) and tried the tofu pad thai, shrimp fried rice, fried tofu and egg rolls.Everything was great! Could use more shrimp even though I asked & paid for extra.The Tofu was good but the rolls were amazing. I liked that they were thinner than normal.The green chilies in the clear sauce (condiment) were yummy!“
“Whether we order takeout or dine-in Hanako's been consistently yummy! Thai food + sushi ... makes it nice to not have to go to two separate restaurants Their pad thai & drunken noodle are solid. I also like their spicy tuna crispy rice & salmon w mango roll. They have an awesome happy hour menu that runs til 7pm - so it's nice to visit before then. Good to support a family business!“
“I was looking for eggplant or pumpkin curry with a coconut Thai tea and this place was so good! They didn’t have pumpkin curry, but I got the green curry. It was so rich smooth and yummy, I added more Chile to it. I got it veggie and I also got a Thai tea with coconut milk that was so tasty!Vegetarian options: Coconut Thai tea and Veggie curry, eggplant“
“The food is delicious with a great presentation. Anything you get from the menu is full of flavor and great tasting.They have different drink options to choose from all great as well.The staff is friendly and is always available for whatever you need.The decor is beautiful and is calming.Great vibe to have breakfast, brunch.“
“The food and service was great. Our waiter recommended the sole in pepper sauce and it was amazing. We also had the crab fried rice, money bags, and wonton. We ate the entrées so fast that I forgot to take a pic! Lol. The entrées are shareable in size, so u get a good amount for what u pay for. Oh... and my drink (lychee Paloma) was BOMB! I will definitely be back!“
“Haiku: Thai Addict Cuisine Bold, spicy flavors I come for the lunch specials Affordable meals. --- I love Thai food and lunch specials (Mon-Fri, 11a-3p), so I naturally gravitated to this restaurant. Lunch special items start at $12.95 (depending on what protein you choose) and come with salad and egg roll. I ordered the Pumpkin Curry and it was a generous portion. I liked how soft and creamy the pumpkin was and the crunch from the bell peppers. I felt the curry was on the sweet side, maybe a bit too sweet. I also ordered the Pad Thai and that was too sweet as well. Just note the dishes are made Medium Spicy, but you can adjust the spice level. I ordered a mild and it was the perfect amount of heat. Service was okay. They were nice, but not as attentive. It was getting busy in the restaurant and we had to flag someone down to take our order, grab to-go boxes, and get our bill. The restaurant is located in a strip mall. The inside has a nice, modern aesthetic and is a good place for large groups. I would come back again though and try their other lunch special menu items. Hopefully their other dishes aren't too sweet.“
“Food: 99% My friend and I happened to come upon this small and cute restaurant as we were craving for spring rolls. The price here is very cheap and affordable. And let me tell you, when the spring roll came out I GASPED. It was small but was PACKED. Love that. The pho broth was so smooth, savory, and it wasn't the usual pho as it had plenty of assorted vegetables which I'm not use to but other than that it was delicious. Service: 100%The service was great and the lady the served us was very sweet and kind. Overall, the food was delicious and the restaurant is very tidy and neat.“
