Our go-to Thai place. Everything is delicious. Coconut Soup, Papaya Salad and Pad Thai are our favorites. Family run with a family feel.

I love this place. They are family run, their food is absolutely delicious, prices are reasonable, and they are friendly and welcoming. I've been going there with my daughter almost once a week for daddy-daughter date night for almost two years, and we have only had 5 star experiences. We love them and reciprocate the family vibes 😁. IF YOU WANT THAI FOOD IN THE VALLEY, COME HERE!!

Vegetarian options: They have tofu, no fake "meats" or any of that other starchy unhealthy vegan garbage (that I know of).

Kid-friendliness: They are super kind to my daughter, and it's her favorite restaurant.

My husband and I had dinner tonight at Kao Hom Thai. It was recommended by my officemate, Mila. We are rating it as the best Thai restaurant in the valley. The taste and cooking is very authentic. We had the soft shell crab, yellow curry pork/chicken and pineapple fried rice. All amazing taste and flavor. The restaurant is VERY CLEAN. This is noticeable once you’re inside . Service is fast and very friendly. - Raquel and Butch Ovenson

Was looking for amazing and I mean amazing authentic Thai food?
Then look no further! This is by far the most authentic and amazing Thai food I've ever had.

To make food that taste like you are eating at food cooked with love and passion is a really rare thing.

To have a family owned business produce above and beyond flavorful dishes that haven't been changed to be more American is a gem.

The boat soup was a little sweet a little sour just the right amount of spice. It was so flavorful I couldn't stop drinking the both. Delicate and tender pieces of beef throughout it.

The Roti is something that's extremely hard to do. Was done soooo beyond well.

Eat here! Do it!

Kao Hom Thai Cuisine is one of my favorite restaurants in Lake Balboa for authentic Thai flavors!

What We Ordered:

Soft Shell Crab Kapow: Perfectly crispy and flavorful, with fresh basil and bell peppers in a spicy sauce. A must-try for seafood lovers.

Chicken Wings: Crispy and juicy, served with a tangy dipping sauce. Perfect as a starter.

Chicken Drunken Noodles: Savory noodles with tender chicken and fresh veggies, all enhanced by aromatic basil. Delicious!

Mango Sticky Rice: Sweet and satisfying, with ripe mango and creamy coconut-infused sticky rice. A great way to end the meal.

Note: We ordered mild spicy, but it was quite hot, even with our decent spice tolerances. Be sure to adjust the spice level if you prefer less heat!

Overall, Kao Hom offers delicious dishes, generous portions, and friendly service. Definitely worth a visit!
