Best Thai food I've ever tasted. Service is fast, food portions are more than generous and again the best Thai authentic restaurant in California. Not to mention the prices are sized for the middle class wallet.

This place was packed on a Tuesday night. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was an authentic Thai restaurant. It’s a lot of food!

Diner Review №6

Curry, noodle dishes all good. Pineapple fried rice was especially good. This was takeout, I look forward to eating there sometime

Diner Review №7

Highly recommend this restaurant!! It was on the way to Tahoe. We went on Saturday evening. Thereweres around 20 minutes waiting. Amazing vegetarian options. We got the Tom Kha soup, Drunken Noodles, Panang Curry and Jasmine rice. The price was reasonabl, and the quantity was apt. The taste was mind-blowing!! We got 3/5 spice and it was perfect spice where we could taste other flavors too along with spice. The service was fast too!! Definitely coming back next time we're in the area.

Diner Review №8

Probably the best Thai food I've at in CA. Very authentic and well priced. The glass noodle pad thai was so good!

Food was great and service was quick. All the things we ordered were super delicious. Pad thai, drunken noodles, pineapple fried rice, panang curry, spring rolls all were very good. Quantity also good enough. Very reasonably priced.

Diner Review №16

Best thai food in town, curries and Larb are my favorites. The lunch specials are awesome.

Diner Review №17

Diner Review №18

Delicious food!

Diner Review №19

As a Thai person, I can say that many dishes here taste quite close to what you’d get in Thailand. Some have been slightly adapted, but they’re still very delicious. The food is great, the service is excellent, and the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended!

Diner Review №22

The food is all super fresh, tastes great, and the prices are even better. The environment is pretty bland, and the gals working there are all about getting things done at an elevated pace, which I can respect, so don't expect a warm and fuzzy customer service experience. Just great food at great pricing.

Diner Review №23

Diner Review №24

Amazing food and great prices! I always stop by when driving through Auburn. Definitely worth stopping by!

Diner Review №25

The best Thai food around. Always fresh ingredients and well developed flavors, the Tom kha soup is to die for.

Diner Review №26

Always so delicious! Best Thai in the area :)

Diner Review №27

Best Thai in town, hands down! I worked right down the street and used to get take out from this place a LOT. I can't count how many times I have eaten here, and I have literally NEVER had bad food! Honestly blows my mind, everyone has off days, right? Not sure how, but not Auburn Thai Garden. Oddly enough it was probably my 50th or so visit before I ever dined in, which was a surprisingly good experience! As a cult follower of their take-out, I had never experienced their salad, which is downright craveable! Atmosphere is good, and in all my experiences, the people have been very nice. They do close every day for the staff to have a lunch break before the dinner period, and it's just something you get used to. The staff are all hard workers who turn out a huge volume of food every day (at very fair prices), and I personally feel they deserve the break. A lot of restaurants are open for dinner only, so I'm just thankful this one is available for lunch! It's clearly posted in their hours on both their Google and their website. As for the friendliness of the staff, in all of my MANY experiences they have been very nice to me. There is a little bit of a language challenge, which I think some people mistake as the staff being short or rude. Overall a fantastic place and one of the top 5 things I miss having relocated out of the area.

Auburn Thai is hands down the best Thai food in Auburn! I love getting takeout but also often go to eat in with friends or family and the food is always delicious. Vegetarian and vegan friendly! They have excellent pad Thai, tom kha, and panang curry — those are some of my favorites!

Diner Review №36

Good place, tasty food, solid choice.

Diner Review №37

I decided to try this place with my wife since the reviews were so good. This place did not disappoint! With several reviews stating this place was better than restaurants in Roseville, we had to try it. Not only were we surprised with the prices, the drinks were great and the staff were accommodating. I highly recommend this place. It's our new favorite restaurant in auburn!

UPDATE 08/09/2024:
BE AWARE: They say they CLOSE AT 3PM. What they mean is, "If you show up at 2:50, you WILL be turned away. I saw a man & his 2 young kids try to get in at 2:55pm. They were CLOSED & refused him. PERIOD. The last thing he said was, "And I'm a REGULAR costomer!"
They're not known for their friendliness or gracious customer service. Good, reliable food; fast seating; prompt ordering (be ready!); quick delivery...but don't expect a lot of conversation & BE THERE BEFORE 2:30 just to be safe.

YES the food is worth it.

____

SO GOOD & crazy inexpensive ($10 incl tip)! Prompt seating & service. Tables turn fast here at lunchtime. Food came out quickly. A small salad comes automatically with lunch. I forgot to ask for fried tofu, but their soft tofu is really good. Almost every entree can be vegetarian. The salad dressing is peanut sauce based & kinda spicy.

Fantastic food at a fantastic price. They’re always busy, but it’s because their food is phenomenal. Best Thai food in the area. If you’re in Roseville or Sac, it’s worth coming up. 10/10 would highly recommend.

Diner Review №50

Food is AweSoMe, Love the spice level, 3/5 is spicy!!

You CANNOT beat the prices here for authentic Thai food. Good spot with good beers too & the people who work there are nice. Khob khun na kap!

Diner Review №56

Delicious

Diner Review №57

Not good. I used to love this place, but the past two times I went I was ignored. When I finally
got seated and got my food it was the wrong order. I've wasted enough money on chances thinking it was just timing.

Diner Review №58

Really reasonable prices for great food! Try the drunken noodles.

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

The meat has no flavor and is overcooked. The rice was dry and hard. I don't think I'll go back to that place.

Diner Review №61

Magically delicious avocado curry and duck soup!! 😋
Great customer service and creative atmosphere!! 🤗

Always busy! Best Thai food in town! But they are only open for select hours for lunch, close for a couple hours from 2:30 to 4:30, then open back up for dinner. Highly recommend them!

Diner Review №83

Excellent food and service with generous portions even. Darn it, I shouldn't have said anything. Now it's going to harder to get a table. Forget what I said.

Diner Review №84

Fist time trying Thai and loved it

Diner Review №85

Very delicious authentic Thai food. Great for eating or take out especially on your way up to Tahoe. Everything is always so fresh and tasty with a really diverse menu. Lots of parking and a very pretty dining room very nice

Diner Review №86

Pleasant dining experience and very popular spot right off I-80. We shared their Penang curry with salmon, and pineapple fried rice. They were delicious - I suspected the taste of their fried rice as it looked rather wet than fried, but turned out I was wrong. Everything tasted as expected. We came at 5pm on Saturday, there were tables and we were seated right away. Parking was limited and quite full in the front, additional parking can be found in the back.

Diner Review №87

Diner Review №88

Excellent food, as always. I first tried it 10 years ago, and it's always been amazing. Also reasonably priced!

Diner Review №89

My wife and I ordered food to go for our first time from here... Let us say all of our enjoyment of cultural food was met with our orders. The place smelled delicious as soon as I walked in as well as looked and felt inviting ( again I was picking up our order but still worth mentioning). The person checking our order out when I got there was friendly and knowledgeable on our requests regarding spice/heat levels, we would highly recommend it. And when I got home and we ate it was delicious

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

We love Auburn Thai Garden Restaurant! Staff is very nice and the most importantly the food is delicious! My favorite is the green curry with eggplant and tofu.

Diner Review №92

Diner Review №93

Don’t even bother with any other Thai food in Auburn. Consistently delicious. I have family from out of town who insist on coming here when they visit since it’s their favorite Thai restaurant as well.

Diner Review №94

Best quality Thai restaurant. The food is healthy, well prepared with great presentation. I've also ordered fresh rolls and salads to go. It's properly boxed and bagged.

Diner Review №95

best Thai in auburn

Diner Review №96

great food, fast service, great staff, but few places to visit. had to wait. The atmosphere of the place is like something from the 80s, which looks very sparse and not interesting! Because of the small rooms, small tables, work is not late, this is a big minus! parking space is very small !the food is really made with love, I recommend it to those who have not tried this cuisine yet.

Diner Review №97

The lady that takes the orders is very RUDE. They need to get rid of her.

Diner Review №98

Good food and fast service.

Diner Review №99

Always incredible. Best restaurant in Auburn

Diner Review №100

Can get food as spicy as you like

Diner Review №101

Marvelous Thai Food. Thus far our favorite in Placer County. We always order the Thai coconut soup with seafood, and it’s simply delicious. The pineapple chicken rice is delicious. We’ve yet to order something we did not enjoy.

Diner Review №102

Very simple and clean. But the food is AMAZING. Every dish is so nicely prepared and presented. The shrimp spring rolls were delicious and the other dishes were just as flavorful and terrific as the last. I have never had anything I didn't thoughtly enjoy. The staff are also pleasant and helpful.

Diner Review №103

The lunch special is perfect.

Diner Review №104

Diner Review №105

The food here is great! Love their Garden Rolls and Garlic Fried Rice. Definitely a vote of confidence.

Diner Review №106

Diner Review №107

Been eating here for years and the excellent quality has been consistent. We typically take out, but are always pleased dining in as well.

Diner Review №108

We ate here a few times and the food were delicious every time. Crab fried rice, green Avocado curry, pad eggplant were very good.

Diner Review №109

I’ve been coming here for years and the food is consistently good and has great flavor. We came yesterday during the lunch rush and it was packed. We had ordered to go and our food was ready when they said it would be.

They did a good job packing the food up for to go- they definitely have a process down and the quality of the dining experience didn’t suffer from taking it away from the restaurant.

I think their curries are very good and their soups. Their wonton soup is probably one of the best I’ve had.

Diner Review №110

Very busy at lunch time. Families and working people having meals. Takeout business brisk. Tight off street parking in a tiny mall on a busy street. Food and service good. Had Pad Woon Sen noodles, Panang Curry Chicken medium spice. Also ordered Grilled Chicken and another Panang Chicken to go. Rice was NOT extra! Prices fair. Will go again.

Diner Review №111

The green curry and grilled chicken on the bone were both memorably good. The eggplant melts in your mouth, the green beans are crisp tender, the sauce is aromatic and light, and the level of spice just right for balancing zing with flavor. The yellow curry sauce perfectly complements the rich taste of the chicken. If I could give the food six stars I would! And for $8? An amazing find. This was the kind of meal that you remember 30 years later. Seriously! We would eat here all the time if we lived here.

Diner Review №112

The best Thaifood❤️❤️❤️in Sacramento 🥇

Diner Review №113

This place was amazing, the food was very fresh, and served quickly even though they were crowded at the time. Perfect balance of flavors. I am from out of town but wish I could bring this place back to the East Coast with me.

Diner Review №114

Wonderful food and service

Diner Review №115

Delicious Thai food!!! Pineapple red curry, pad see ew, pad Thai, duck curry..this is our go to spot for Thai in the area! It is really popular and gets super busy. Hard to find parking. If you don't care about dining in, then order for pickup!

Good spot for a quick bite. We got the green curry and the grilled chicken. Grilled chicken was Tender and flavourful.

Diner Review №123

Love duck and they have options that are very tasty

Diner Review №124

It’s actually a good Thai restaurant considering this is Auburn CA and there is a special room for large parties. Papaya salad is good and seafood curry was delicious.

Diner Review №125

Great Thai food in Auburn.

Diner Review №126

Solid thom kha gai. The service was really good, they were very fast. Great prices and nice portions.

Diner Review №127

I am going back to this place.
Food was YUM!
Great clean food..
Service was good.
Great portion sizes.
Pretty much most foods on menu were able to be made into vegetarian dishes.
Great value for money.

Diner Review №128

Delicious food. Service was fast even for our large group. Clean bathrooms. We’d be regulars if we lived nearby!

Diner Review №129

The food here is good, fast and lunch is so reasonable. This is the most authentic Thai, I've found in the Foothills, so far. Gluten Free options are no problem. Can't wait to go back for dinner

Diner Review №130

Solid Thai food in Auburn. Great prices, friendly service, and most importantly great food. Because it’s so popular, parking and seating can be a bit of a challenge on most nights.

Diner Review №131

Absolutely loved the food here. We visited from out of state and were enamored with the beautiful, cozy interior and excellent variety of dishes. Highly recommend this Thai restaurant.

Diner Review №132

Great Thai food! I've eaten at over 100 different Thai restaurants and this place was great. Their Tom kah soup was absolutely amazing. Great pad Thai and yellow curry (though a little more spicy than I'd like and normal for yellow curry)

Diner Review №133

Diner Review №134

We had some Thai food only a week ago in SF at Osha, so we had a pretty good and recent comparison. I never imagined a day that an Auburn Thai restaurant would be so good, but wow, we were amazed.

Big portions that can be shared. We got pad Thai, green curry, summer rolls and a Thai iced tea. All were wonderful. The curry had a perfect spice to it and the spring rolls tasted fresh.

We loved it, and others seem to as well. We had an early dinner at 520 on a Tuesday to make a 6pm movie and the place was packed already.

Diner Review №135

Casual dining with excellent food!

Diner Review №136

Rambutan red curry...yes! Super delicious. I hought it a little weird to have fruit in a curry, but I sit corrected. lol Wonderful. They called it a "summer" curry. That convinced me! I've been remembering and thinking about it for almost a week! How good is that!

Diner Review №137

Best Thai food around! We've tried quite a few Thai restaurants nearby, and this is the best, by far. Prices are very reasonable too.

Diner Review №138

their red curry with rombutan is sooooooooooooo good.

Diner Review №139

There wasn't a single dish that didn't shine! I highly recommend this one! Sorry, no photos, I was too preoccupied with savoring the meal.

Diner Review №140

Diner Review №141

Sadly they don't have a base no spice for their yellow cocunut curry but still delicious and the atmosphere here feels nice for me with how things are decorated and set up.

Diner Review №142

Husband loves the food here. They got good tea too.

Diner Review №143

Had lunch there. Excellent food, prices and the food was piping hot.

Diner Review №144

Did read very tasty and nice variety. Location is easy access. Not the friendliest or most attentive front of house but it was good enough to go back.

Diner Review №145

Just had the green avocado curry and it was freaking amazing! We Get takeout at this place regularly, in-house dining is a bit slow. It seems like they need more help! But the prices are cheap and the food is outstanding, so I’m giving it a five:)

Diner Review №146

Lovw this food here. Staff is very nice for hiw busy they are

Diner Review №147

Diner Review №148

I love their rad nar - (I do wish they still served duck!)

Diner Review №149

Diner Review №150

Best Thai food AND the best price.
Highly recommend the spring rolls as an app and literally whatever your favorite Thai dish will be an amazing meal. The service is efficient even if it takes time during peak hours because it’s delicious & therefore popular.

Diner Review №151

Excellent Thai food which is always tough to find. Great location to stop by on the way to and from Tahoe. We will surely be back!

Comme d'habitude le plus rentable aux usa c'est les restaurants thaï, celui ci ne fait pas exception à la règle.

Diner Review №158

This is our favorite local restaurant for special occasions. We love, LOVE this food. It is always exceptional.

Another constant is how busy it is. There is little parking and the staffing is short. Expect a wait for seating.

The staff is friendly but constantly in a rush. It could expand and still be busy.

I recommend to call in your order, or know what you want before arriving. This will help to minimize your wait times.

Diner Review №159

We never miss Thai Garden wherever we come to town. So tasty, fresh ingredients, well-spiced. Yum!

Diner Review №160

Great food and service. Love the Pad Fresh Ginger with Prawns. Great place to meet friends and date night. Friendly servers and clean restaurant. Choose your spice level carefully!

Diner Review №161

Food is always fantastic! But I'm really, really disappointed in the way my order was handled tonight. I called from the Rocklin area and the lady that answered phone left me on hold for the 20 minutes it took me to drive to the restaurant. When I arrived, I told her I'm the person that you put on hold and she snapped at me angrily saying " can't you see I'm busy tonight." I just was informing her so she could hang up the phone. No apologies what so ever!!

Diner Review №166

Diner Review №167

An all time favorite. Amazing food.

Diner Review №168

Let’s call them the most affordable and delicious Thai food! Cheap lunch special and the food actually delicious. They are super busy during lunch so definitely recommend call in a pick up order. Will be back here if we are in the area and highly recommend this location

Diner Review №169

Very nice, always good 👍

Diner Review №170

Great service...always great food...amazing prices

Diner Review №171

Good Thai food for reasonable price

Diner Review №172

Easily some of the best Thai food in the entire area. I have been frequenting this spot for almost 20 years and absolutely love it

Diner Review №173

Do you want delicious Thai food at a reasonable price? Well this place should be on your list. If you're a weakling like me, you'll stick with mild on the spice, if you're feeling adventurous go up to medium, anything more and they'll be hauling you away on a stretcher. My personal favorite dish, young coconut curry.

Diner Review №174

I love ATG's curry! My kids and I love to go here for a budget-friendly delicious meal!

Diner Review №175

Just all around the best. Quality ingredients and quality service. Best town to be in also !

Diner Review №176

The food was soooooo good! I used to live in Thailand and this food is pretty close to the real stuff. Plus they know how to make food spicy if you ask for it. Pad Thai was 10/10.

Diner Review №177

Diner Review №178

Authentic cuisine. The best beer selection of just about any restaurant in town. An owner who is enthusiastic about making customers feel like guests and a great staff.

Try:
Crying Tiger
Crispy Fish and Green Apple Salad
Drunken Noodles
Green Avocado Curry
Seafood Fried Rice

Diner Review №179

Had a nice relaxing lunch. Service was friendly.

Diner Review №180

The best Thai food in the area. We eat here everytime we are in driving distance.

Diner Review №181

One of the best Thai restaurants I have visited. Great food, big portion, super reasonable price & good service despite short of staff & plenty of customers.

Diner Review №182

Diner Review №183

Completely over stack the bagged food. All of the food leaked in my car and no matter how hard I try, my brand new car smells like Thai food. They need to invest in better containers or double bag and then provide sturdy cardboard boxes for to go orders. Additionally, They massively under quote times. This is the 3rd time I’ve ordered from here and this time I even showed up 10 mins past their standard response of “30 mins”. They were an additional 30 mins behind. Hard to tell what time others were quoted but at least half a dozen customers who arrived after me, had left with their orders.

The food is good, really good. But they are too liberal with their quoted pickup times.

Diner Review №184

Diner Review №185

Diner Review №186

All was great and service was prompt. Just a little loud, but because they're so busy and we'll liked!

Diner Review №187

Diner Review №194

Great food for great price!

Diner Review №195

Love the food here, so delicious! We’ve only dined in, the movie theater is close by so it makes a great date night. Parking can get scarce as they are very popular but the food is worth the trouble.

Diner Review №196

The best and most flavorful Thai food!

Diner Review №197

Diner Review №198

The food I was told is like the food cooked in Bangkok...delicious

Diner Review №199

While on a trip for work I had a craving for some quality Thai food. Thai garden doesn't disappoint. Yellow curry with chicken and the Thai garden rolls sounded good. Everything was prepared perfectly. With the side of chili's in oil and some chili paste I was able to turn it up to a spice level just for me. Highly recommend.
