50 Best Thai Restaurants near Tustin

“The Pad Thai here is the best one I have tasted so far“

“The food is delicious...and the staff at the restaurant are very good. The owner is friendly and lovely.“

“From the service to the food, everything was amazing! My new favorite restaurant!!!“

“Whenever I get a craving for Thai this is my go to spot. The food is authentic delicious and Just plain beautiful. The prices are reasonable the portions are large. The atmosphere can be busy, but comforting and relaxing, like a coffeehouse. The hustle and bustle of people coming in doesn’t distract from the atmosphere. In fact, it adds to it. I have always judged a Thai restaurant by their Tom kha kai. The first time I had it here I knew I was in for some good Thai. I’ve been making Tom kha gai at home for years now I know how it’s done and the subtleties of the ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“This was my first time and it was delicious and authentic Indonesian food. I’d highly recommend the Mie Goreng (fried noodles), fried chicken, Sate Ayam and Nasi Kuning (yellow rice plate). The portions were generous and the service was very kind.“

“Outstanding freshness of their fish and great service 😀“

“Really delicious food. I enjoyed it a lot.“

“We came before the rush lunch time so there’s no wait but soon after it got very packed.
Orders came very quickly and each order was enough for 4 people to share. But it didn’t come with rice. We had to order it. Shrimps from two orders were very big and fresh. Northern Thai Khad soi chicken curry was very tasty.
Staff was very friendly but maybe it was during lunch hours was a bit of noisy. Not easy to talk.“

“My wife and I are big fans of Thai cuisine, and last night we decided to try Signature Thai Bistro. We were intrigued because it occupies the same space as Supatra's, a spot we used to frequent years ago before the change in ownership. We called ahead to make a reservation and were seated promptly within a minute of our arrival. My wife follows a gluten-free vegan diet, and Thai food has always been a reliable choice for her. She called in advance to ensure options were available, and the staff was accommodating. Our server, Paul, was outstanding. He went above and beyond to ensure the kitchen was informed about my wife's dietary needs, making the experience seamless and stress-free. Here's what we ordered: Tom Kha Soup: Excellent, bursting with rich and vibrant flavors. Summer Rolls: My wife loved them--fresh and perfectly prepared. Mango Mood drink: Another hit, beautifully balanced and refreshing. Wine: A familiar choice for my wife that paired well with the meal. String Beans and Eggplant: Very delicious, with bold and flavorful seasoning. Crying Tiger: Unfortunately, this dish didn't meet my expectations and is one we wouldn't recommend. Overall, the food was excellent, aside from the Crying Tiger, and the service was exceptional. Special thanks to Paul for his attentiveness and genuine kindness. We highly recommend Signature Thai Bistro for its delicious offerings and top-notch service.“

“Thai Town in downtown Orange is a solid spot for Thai food with a chill, laid-back vibe that makes the experience worth the visit. I went with some friends and we shared an order of the Pad Thai noodles with chicken, house fried rice with tofu, and yellow curry with chicken and potatoes. The food overall was decent and satisfying. The Pad Thai had a nice, slightly sweet flavor and was cooked just right—classic comfort food with tender pieces of chicken mixed in. The fried rice with tofu was simple but tasty, with a good texture and well-balanced seasoning that didn’t overpower. The yellow curry was creamy and mild, featuring long pieces of chicken and potatoes that soaked up the rich coconut flavor nicely. The chicken was tender the potatoes were very firm.

Inside, the restaurant has a clean and casual feel—nothing fancy, but comfortable and easy to relax in. The real bonus, though, is the atmosphere outside. Downtown Orange has a super chill vibe, and it adds a lot to the experience. Whether you're eating inside and stepping out afterward or grabbing takeout to enjoy nearby, the location makes a difference.

Overall, Thai Town is a good go-to if you’re looking for a laid-back place with dependable Thai dishes. It’s not flashy, but it hits the spot and is definitely a place worth returning.“

“Very good Thai food! I consider myself a Thai aficionado and I’ve gotta say this place hit the spot. The owner was very friendly and brought the food out to us personally. It’s a satellite kitchen pick up spot with a few tables & chairs to eat if you’d like to dine in. Highly recommend 👌🏾“

“Royal Thai Orchid 9.5/10
Ordered Tom Yum, Thai spicy, with shrimp:
- Really nice level of heat (I ordered it very spicy), and there were no Thai chili pepper pods I had to fish out, so that's good, and they provided extra ground Thai chilis on the side. 👍👍
- fresh mushrooms, not canned, good amount 👍👍
- heat, sourness, amazingly delicious tasting broth, hint of sweetness to contrast the bold hot and sour flavors. All the wonderful tastes melded together, lime, cilantro, galangal, lemon grass, so completely developed and full flavored 👍👍 👍
- giant shrimp, tails on, so tender and delicious and lots of them. 👍👍👍
Bottom line, I've been hunting for the best Tom Yum in SoCal, and I have found it at Royal Thai Orchid. I was settling before, now, never more. Makes me REALLY want to taste their other menu items. Just ordered Tom Yum for the 4th time in the past week (yes, I am obsessed and yes, it's that good), but this time I ordered some stuffed chicken wings as well. Will be amazing I'm sure. 😁“

“A little gem in Good Food Hall, a small indoor/outdoor food court at the end of Anaheim Center Street Promenade.
The (Tofu) Pad Thai had the right amount of flavor. The (chicken) Green Curry had a hint of spiciness, right amount of curry-sweetness and fresh looking red & green bell peppers.
We'll definitely go again when around Downtown Anaheim.“

“Had a blast with my family 👪 ❤“

“Love This here Food is great! I don't think that I have ever been disappointed with there food. Wait staff is great!“

“This is the best Thai food I’ve had in all of OC. I had the spicy pork noodle soup and golden pouches, both were 10 out of 10, and the Thai coffee was the perfect accompaniment to the spicy meal! Can’t wait to go again. Excellent service too!“

“Nice, chill, low-key vibe here, but better yet -- food quality is up there with the best Thai in Orange County. And they manage to do it all with reasonable, competitive prices.
Been here exactly twice and I can confidently state that this is my new favorite OC Thai restaurant.
(And it doesn't hurt that they offer a free Thai iced tea while you wait for your order).
Recommended: any of their featured specialties, including the curries, crying tiger, crab fried rice, papaya salad.“

“I have been to many Thai restaurants but this one stands out with tastety food and outstanding service .... strongly recommend you to try their food“

“First timer to Basil Thai and it was quite good. The location is a small place with a dozen tables and at 5pm on a Thursday, not busy. The anchor store for this shopping center was obviously T.J.
Service was fast, english was spoken clearly at my table with I guess Thai (?) spoken behind the counter. I had Chicken Basil Thai Fried Noodle plate and Tom Yum Noodle Bowl. I could not finish it all which is a good thing for takeaway. Both have a light spicy foundation that was not overwhelming and sufficient for lighter Thai palates. As a local customer, I will return.“

“My husband and I stopped in on a Friday evening. We were the only patrons which made me a little concerned at first but there was consistent takeout pickup the whole time we were there. Our apps were fresh and prepared to order. I had the green curry and my husband had the KUA-KRING SIAM, both had incredible flavors and just straight up delicious!“

“I have been coming here for years. The service and food are great! My favorite is usually the Pad Thai, but the Crying Tiger I tried tonight was also amazing. My wife likes the yellow chicken curry, which is also delicious when she shares some with me.“

“La amable atención. La comida deliciosa!“

“Crab fried rice ( it's like a rocket fireworks) AMAZING 10/10 stars. Tom kah soup 9/10 stars. Yellow curry chicken 7/10 stars. Papaya salad 7/10 stars. Fried wonton 8/10 stars. To finish the meal the sweet mango with sweet rice amazing too 9/10 stars . This is a nice place my family loves it. Come try this place . Have a great day. BTW they are sweet and friendly people.“

“Run by a Thai family with 7 sisters. This restaurant tastes exactly the same as point-and-scoop shops in Thailand. $9/$10 for a 2-item/3-item combo, respectively. Highly recommend this place for quality Thai food at a very reasonable price.“

“We came here for a dinner. On a Saturday night as we love Thai food. This place was so quiet and peaceful. Basically being vegetarians we were looking for some options. We found plenty. Drunken noodles and pineapple curry were so tasty and had just enough flavours, mild and delicious. We tried their home made coconut icecream, was one of the best I had. Prices were extremely affordable and the lady who served was kind to us. Would highly recommend this place. Would wish more people could visit this place and keep their business flourishing.“

“Favorite local neighborhood Thai restaurant. Absolutely love the Kao Soi Chicken. =)“

“Delish and great staff. The staff IS family and they treat not only their customers like family, but the other staff as well. That means a lot. We had a fun time with DJ and Pleng. About the food... We had 4 dishes... Hanuman's ceviche, Tom Kha Gai, Massaman, Pad See Ew and a nice glass of Malbec. My favorites were the ceviche and Massaman. But everything was so good. Hubs liked everything. There was literally no wait at 3 pm but come soon... Once word gets out this place will have a 45 min wait just like the mother location on Bristol.“

“The Chicken Rice is one of the top spots in OC for original Khao Man Gai. It’s been a minute since my last visit, so I was surprised to discover that they relocated from their previous Santa Ana location into the 4th Street Market. The Chicken Rice joins a number of innovative food makers featured in this food hall. I parked at a nearby meter but according to their website, there are two parking structures off of 4th and 5th Streets that offer the first 2 hours free!

I recommend making it a combo with the Chicken & Rice which includes 2 choices of protein, soup and vegetables. My go-to protein choices are Hainanese Chicken and Crispy Chicken, so I get to enjoy the best of both worlds! The combo includes a choice of signature ginger rice or steamed rice, but you can choose brown rice (+$1) or sticky rice (+$2) for an additional charge. They also allow their customers to select 2 sauces from 8 different options. The Ginger Chicken Oil is a nice complement to the Hainanese Chicken and I enjoyed dipping the Crispy Chicken in their Spicy Soybean Chili Ginger sauce. If you’re a Hainan Chicken fan like I am, The Chicken Rice is a must try!“

“Delicious Food amazing customer service If you love Thai this place is a most“

“The best Thai cuisine in town, Chef is from Thailand, authentic taste as well. Walked in with my husband in mid-Dec, we both are Green / Red chicken curry lovers, price is right, enjoyable food, strongly recommend. Then, got lunch special take out today, it was fast prepared. Brought it home, food temperature and taste remained Hot/Delicious as we expected. Definitely would visit or take out again.“

“Excellent Food! Nice staff.“

“Very good Thai food. Staff were very friendly. Good price for portions.“

“If you want the best crispy fried chicken ever... you NEED to come here.

Crispy Fried Chicken: GET THIS!!
The most deliciously crispy, juicy, and mouth watering chicken you will ever eat. Paired with the sauce, I don't think it can get any better. I don't even live near here and I come back just for this.

The other items were tasty and seasoned well but the fried chicken just stole the show for me.

The service was very friendly and accommodating. And for dinner time, we were almost the only ones in the restaurant. For how good the food was, this place needs to be put on the radar!

Food: 9/10
Service: 9/10
Atmosphere: 6/10
Value: 7/10“

“We enjoyed the small hole in the wall atmosphere and all 10 of us found the dishes to be quite good! prices were around $10-15 but portion sizes varied a lot. i found my spicy noodle sizing to be a bit small for $13.

restroom was also in the rear of the building so you had to walk around back which felt unsafe at night and weird to be in the kitchen. also restroom had a very strong scent“

“The best Pad See Ew I have ever had
and I have eaten A LOT! I cannot describe the joy this place gives me :))

The food is made incredibly quickly and the process of retrieving it is so smooth. Five stars all around.

TRY THE PAD SEE EW, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!“

“The food is delicious I’ll be back for more love their panang curry 😋“

“Delicious, freshly prepared cuisine.“

“I would give more than 5 stars if there was an option to. This is my favorite, local Thai food place. I've had several different dishes (pad Thai, curries, drunken noodles, veggies, soups, etc). Everything I've had here is amazing and also tastes better than other nearby places (better quality and value!). Plus, I love knowing I'm supporting a local, family business. This is by far my favorite little worthwhile hole-in-the-wall spot and a regular go-to for me. If you want to become a regular somewhere, this place is worth frequenting.“

“Good place for family dinner“

“You won't be disappointed here. You can tell they take care with fresh veggies and good flavor. Ordered drunken nooddle with chicken. The chicken was fresh and tender. Flavor was good and intense. Serrano peppers add a nice kick. Service was fast and friendly. Thanks!“

“Small, not super fancy, but very nice place. Good food for a fair price. Thai ribs were good (interesting and not usual flavor). We were treated in a very polite and friendly manner. Thank you!
PS. With some traditional music in the background would be even better. :)“

“What a pleasant surprise to find this little place tucked in the Santa Ana/Tustin area on Glassell and Fairhaven in the Big Lots shopping strip. Bangkok Taste is small eatery, would probably seat about 30 people but the flavors are pretty big. We didn't have a large supper because we were on our way to a party where there would be more food. But we couldn't eat at the party because we were so full from a plate each pad see ew pork and chicken, angel wings, massaman curry, rice and mango sticky rice to finish it off. What a feast! Plenty leftover for today's lunch. The only thing we didn't finish was the mango sticky rice. The coconut milk was a bit watery, almost no flavor which was a contrast to the absolutely heavenly coconut massaman curry. We don't live in the area but we visit a few times a month so we'll be back and take our time. Friendly and prompt service, great first experience, clean tables and chairs. Loved it!

Parking: It's a strip mall and they're three doors down from Big Lots so there's plenty of parking if you can't find anything directly in front of the eatery.“

“Today was my first time here but the Volcano Seafood I ordered is absolutely amazing“

“It’s great 🥰 I love itttttttttttttt“

“The food was good, but the service needs work. We got our food at 8:56, and right after a short break, two server came over asking if we wanted boxes, which felt rushed and uncomfortable. On top of that, server kept giving us judgmental looks.“

“Best Thai food ever, especially for the price. They are quick, affordable, and delicious. I LOVE their Thai Spice fried rice and Pad Thai. If you are in the mood for Thai food, look no further and try this place!

Vegetarian options: You can get tofu or veggies with most dishes“

“Great Thai food nice Service 👍❤️“

“So glad this restaurant has survived. The food is delicious and the staff is courteous and thoughtful. We went there last night for a Sunday dinner and it was nice to be able to go somewhere in our neighborhood.“

“I ordered the Chicken pad thai (Medium Spice) not thai level spice so if I do come back, definitely getting spicy with extra spice on the side. The space inside makes you feel like you're transported back to Thailand (there was a cab in the front of the menu screen) and limited seating, a couple of tables outside. Overall rating, 4.6 stars for me, I know google doesn't give me the options for the point six. The pad thai was really good, not too mushy, chicken not over done and love that they added the Vietnamese chives ( hẹ) and bean sprouts along with peanuts, gives an extra crunch in every bite. (Menu are as of June 7, 2024)“

“The best Thai Food restaurant in Southern California. I would name my favorite dishes, but there’s too many to choose from 🍛 And I can’t ever skip the mango sticky rice 😍“
