Diner Review №6

Great pad Thai and mango sticky rice

Diner Review №7

The outside looks a little rough. The inside is nice enough. The food is excellent! Some of the best Tai I have ever had had! I got the red Curry.

Diner Review №8

The owner is so kind and the food is wonderful! My favorite food is the red curry. 😋💓
They are great with understanding food allergies like gluten, dairy and vegetarian.

Diner Review №9

This lovely little restaurant is nestled in a strip mall which makes it easy to overlook, but don't make that mistake! The staff are friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is comfortable with beautiful decor all around and warm inviting colors.

I wasn't sure if I had time to dine in, so I'd ordered to-go but decided to stay and eat there after all because it was just so pleasant. I was almost late as a result but it's important to take a time out and enjoy an experience once in a while.

The food was delicious with large portion sizes so you definitely get your money's worth. I ordered the pad thai (vegetarian) and it was enough to serve two adults and leave us both satisfied. I don't know why I didn't try Thai Orchid sooner, but I'll definitely be back!

I love this place. Food amazing. Service amazing. The staff is so helpful and very friendly. Love the atmosphere. Needs more love from locals. The food is fresh and the positions are big and the price is so good. Been coming here for amazing comfort food. Definitely trying all the menu.

Diner Review №14

Great hidden gem, I love the pad Thai, great spice level when requested. Great thai tea, the chicken yellow curry noodle is a great dish as well

Diner Review №15

Diner Review №16

Ordered the chicken red curry looked very nice but was so salty it was inedible. Told waiter he said that’s how we make it. Disappointing.

Diner Review №20

Plenty of food, fresh, seasoned to your choice of spiciness.

Diner Review №21

The coconut chicken soup and the mango with sweet rice are my absolute favs!!

Diner Review №22

FYI: The hours posted on the internet are incorrect, which is frustrating. It says they're open for lunch on Saturdays from 1:00 to 3:00, but they are actually closed until 4:00.

Once we were actually able to eat at the restaurant, we had a great experience. We had four different entrees at our table and every one of them was excellent, as were the service and surroundings. We'll return very soon (and often :-).

Diner Review №23

Basil stir fry 🔥

Authentic Thai food, a hidden secret spot a mom n pop restaurant. Found enough vegetarian and vegan choices. I would recommend going “Thai spicy”, which is spicy enough at level 5 anything more than that you start loosing hair I guess.

Diner Review №24

Tried for the first time, it was sooo good. Staff are very friendly. Relaxing atmosphere. I'm looking forward to eating here and trying all of their options. Definitely recommend!

Diner Review №25

Diner Review №26

Authentic Thai. Do yourself a favor and eat here.

Diner Review №27

The tom yum soup here is delicious! We get it every time we visit.

We also ordered Panang Curry with rice and their Pad Thai. Both were flavorful. I was hoping that the curry was a bit spicier though.

Service here is great! They usually only have that one server but he does an amazing job really navigating several tables all at once. Also always so pleasant and kind. He is a huge part of why I would recommend this place.

PS: When we visited, there was a couple of old folks who talked to us before they left and expressed how this was their first time and how impressed they were with the food, then asked us what we plan to order. Lol.

Food here is so good, strangers spark conversation with you ;)

Diner Review №28

Had the house rice but I added shrimp it was very tasty. Will make this my Thai place

Diner Review №29

I ordered 2 Pad See Ew for the first time in this place and is the worst I have ever had. The taste was bland, and the noodles are stucked together! I wasted almost $25. Will go and stay with MyThai for Thai foods.

Diner Review №30

Fantastic restaurant and great service.

Diner Review №31

Worst larb ever. Super salty and barely any lettuce. Not going here again

Diner Review №32

First time at this restaurant and oh my gosh I loved the food. Every single dish that we ordered was so good especially their wonton soup and thai basil fried rice. Highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed. I will be going here again for sure.

Diner Review №33

My go to for authentic Thai food. It is amazing

Diner Review №34

I got the salmon over lettuce, and the fresh spring rolls, both were yummy.
Parking is good,
Easy online pick up order.

Diner Review №35

I got the salmon over lettuce, and the Fresh spring rolls, Both were good.

Diner Review №36

Not the best but definitely will come back.

Diner Review №37

Diner Review №38

We got the shrimp satay and pad see ewe with tofu.

The noodles in the pad see ewe was definitely overcooked, to the point where we ate them in clumps rather than noodles. It made me feel like I was eating mush. The tofu and broccoli in it were good, but overall the pad see ewe was underseasoned and quite bland.

The shrimp satay was also overcooked, and the shrimp was quite tough and dry. The peanut sauce was not flavorful enough to overcome the lack of seasoning on the shrimp either.

Overall, it's not the worst Thai food I've had. Maybe if I was back in college and broke this might do the trick, as it's not terribly expensive (though moreso than other spots). But the lack of seasoning and overcooking brings this down to a two.

Diner Review №39

I wish I could give a better review but there's nothing positive to say. They should step outside their restaurant and try the competitions menu's. I had the yellow curry. It had potatoes that should be cut down to a size so you can get it into the spoon and only one carrot. The service, well let's say WHERE IS THE SERVER?
Ten minutes after leaving my tongue taste like salt. The quality overall gets 2 stars and that's the best they deserve.

P.S.
Jack makes much better egg rolls.

Diner Review №40

Best Thai in a very long time! Everything ordered was absolutely great. Very tasty!

Diner Review №41

I ordered for the first time tonight through Doordash. I accidentally ordered fried spring rolls instead of fresh. The restaurant was kind enough to change my order and have it ready quickly for the dasher. I appreciate the dasher waiting an extra few minutes too.. I am impressed with the great customer service and the food is really good. The dumplings and mango/ sweet rice was excellent. I'm saving the spring rolls for lunch tomorrow:) I will be ordering from them again again!

Diner Review №42

I rarely post negative comments but I was so disappointed to say the least. I have my favorite Thai restaurants but thought I'd try this one. Keep in mind I only ordered (tried) 2 dishes so this may not be a fair assessment of the restaurant as a whole.

With that being said, the Roasted duck curry was bland along with the Pad Thai. The duck was very tough. I wanted to throw it away after one bite...but I was too hungry. If this was the first time I ever tried duck...I would never order duck again. Very disappointed...hope your experience was better than mine.

Diner Review №43

You have to try the pineapple fried rice its the best!

Diner Review №44

The pineapple rice was amazing. I brought home leftovers to my husband and then kept stealing bites as he was eating it. It was crazy good.

Also really pleased with the flavor of the coconut soup. Not as many chunks as others, but the broth was perfection. I could just drink that stuff every day.

Also got the panang curry which never disappoints if you like peanut flavor.

Staff were really friendly and the time estimate they gave on the phone for when my order would be ready was pretty accurate.

Diner Review №45

Food was delicious, service was great.

Diner Review №46

Good food, good service. I recommend Thai Orchid to all Thai food lovers. We ordered the Slippery Noodles and Red Curry Chicken. Their mini salad is also very good with their Peanut Dressing.

Diner Review №47

Amazing food and service

Diner Review №48

Nice food and accommodating staff

Diner Review №49

Excellent Thai food. Family own

Diner Review №50

Very disappointing to see a lack of care with food preparation. There was a label on one of the sliced bell peppers, and whilst its not going to make me sick, it does raise the question of whether the vegetables are actually washed or not.

Diner Review №51

First time trying this local restaurant. We ordered online, payed upon pick up. They even gave a courtesy call when the order was ready. I enjoyed my meal very much. The pineapple fried rice was great. The papaya salad had a jerky type steak. The chicken strip appetizer was tasty but pricey. The curry was yummy.

Diner Review №52

AUTHENTIC!

Diner Review №53

Foods are ok. Pad thai have raw green beans. We didn't like it.

Diner Review №54

Diner Review №55

I ordered food from grub hub but it came late like 2 hours late!!! I know it’s not the drivers fault because driver picked it up and deliver it unde 10 min!! We can track. . It’s the restaurant’s fault !! I ordered wayyy ahead of time . I had the time selected way ahead of time and still the order came 2 hours late!!! I was hungry and when I am hungry, I get cranky = [ Bad service ! Please care to improve in the future .

Diner Review №56

Ordered the Drunken noodles, and I'm not sure what they gave me.. Drunken noodles have lettuce and no egg.. this has eggs and no lettuce.. Store was happy to remake them, delicious! Just not the classic recipe, but delicious!

Diner Review №57

Don't sleep on this place they have great food and sadly it is hardly ever busy. The red curry is fantastic and so is pretty much everything else

Diner Review №58

Best Tasting Pad Thai in the area!

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

The have absolutely the best yellow curry chicken. Spice levels go to 5. I love 4.

Diner Review №61

I've always had great food from this place. I highly recommend them!

Diner Review №62

During these rough times this place still manage to bring great taste in their dishes they made for us. Price is what I expected average for a Thai restaurant but the quality and quantity was worth every cent. The drunken noodles that I ordered was way above my expectations and when I finished my dish I was left wanting more. I definitely will be returning.

Diner Review №63

Great food. How can you not Love the Drunken Noodles with Chicken; get it spicy! Great size portions and reasonably priced! Try them!

Diner Review №64

The food in the management is top-notch! A very great environment

Diner Review №65

Diner Review №66

Amazing thai food.

Diner Review №67

My favorite Thai place, yes the food is good but the best part here is the owner and his sweet niece.

Diner Review №68

It's just OK. Service is slow and food is not that good. Curry is watery and good is bland. They give you big portions but food consistency is not regular

Diner Review №69

$2 credit card fee, in 2020? That is silly. Food was ok.

Diner Review №70

This is a really nice local Thai restaurant. They serves a special Curry pop appetizer that we get everytime(see photo).

Diner Review №80

Diner Review №81

Great food!

Diner Review №82

Food is delicious! The staff is nice and it doesn't feel awkward and stuffy. Its very nicely decorated with elephants. I love elephants a bunch. Lol I was told that there are orher places called Thai Orkid and they are not all owned by the same people. I don't know about the others but this one was great. We had Drunken Noodle which is only hot/spicy by request, veg tempura which was green beans, broccoli and sweet potatoes i think and the sliced mango with rice. Perfect sweet treat.

Diner Review №83

Food was great!

Diner Review №84

The food absolutely fresh and delicious! The service is awesome! It's very clean and the ambiance is very quaint and cozy. I will MOST DEFINITELY go back to dine.

Diner Review №85

Very nice staff and the yellow curry was very good

Diner Review №86

Alright this is the second time i've ordered from this place on postmates. The first time I decided to get the drunken noodles despite me usually getting curry at thai places. So, the second time i went there I got the curry instead. The curry was super tasty and had all the typical, quality ingredients you can expect with thai curry, but it didn't come with rice. This is mainly confusing through the postmates app, but in my opinion, you shouldn't have to order a side of rice with your curry; it should always come standard with it.

Diner Review №87

Diner Review №88

Great food but, very HOT!!!

Excellent Tom Kha & Fresh Rolls

Very good food

Diner Review №97

Diner Review №98

Diner Review №99

Very mediocre experience unfortunately. We ordered using the online menu option. Coconut shrimp was not cooked properly according to someone who had raved about them.

So the staff must have had an off night. Chicken satay was not hot. Sauces all around we're a tad too sweet for my taste but others in our group loved them.

Pad Thai was very heavy on the sauce. Again, it seemed like they were having an off night.

Diner Review №100

Sandbar don't know much about it

Diner Review №101

Casual deliciousness

Great Food, Great Service, Great Establishment. I have been coming here for over 2 years and the staff is always.super friendly. My favorite dishes are the drunken noodle beef, oyster vegetables with tofu, and the red curry with a side of brown rice. Thanks!!!

Diner Review №109

Good stuff

Diner Review №110

Quiet with friendly staff. I liked my dish with a good level of spice. Most places the dishes come out bland even when ordering spicy, others it is too hot to enjoy. Nice to get one with character but doesn't bite back.

Diner Review №111

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

My wife and I eat here fairly often, and are always pleased with the food and the service. It is never very busy at lunch time, so I hope more people try it so they can continue to serve the great food!

Diner Review №114

was ok

Diner Review №115

Diner Review №116

Always have amazing fresh food!! Staff is always polite and respectful. Hardly ever packed and food is made in a reasonable time. They do have 2 TV's that usually have the game in but don't have the sound on so you can still enjoy dinner. Food is fairly inexpensive compared to most Thai food.

Diner Review №117

I do take out from here 2 plus times a month and the food is always excellent. My order has never been wrong and always has napkins and utensils. Usually no more than a 15 min wait when I just walk in. Great service the few times we dined in as well!

Flavorful authentic Thai food. The only place so far in citrus heights. Its can get busy and there might be a wait but it's worth it. You Must try their Thai Basil fried rice, Pad see ew and Thai green curry!

I was skeptical to go here because it's in Citrus Heights, but I had a great experience. Delicious dishes for great prices!

Diner Review №143

Love the "Drunkin Noodles!"

They have the most amazing fried rice in peanut sauce and that's the only reason why I come there except for the service is phenomenal

Diner Review №145

Fabulous food. Fabulous service. The food is top-notch.

Diner Review №146

This is by far the best thai restaurant I've ever been to. The owners are so nice and go out of their way to make sure you have a good experience amd their food is absolutely delicious.

Absolutely love this place!!! Used to go here almost everyday for lunch. They are very friendly, know their customers, and the food is always great! I never had a dish I didn't like.

Diner Review №155

This place is awesome, great food great service, can't go wrong with this place,

Diner Review №156

The food is DISGUSTING, service is embarrassingly horrible, and prices for the food are not bad but definitely not worth the food. I love Thai. But this place is awful. I work very close by that place and they need pest control

Diner Review №157

I liked the glass noodle stir fry and the decorations but the portion size to price ratio leaves something to be desired

Diner Review №158

Can't go wrong, great food, great service, the restaurant is beautiful and calm. Love it! This place is fantastic.

Diner Review №159

Excellent curry, reminds me of the tasty flavors of great Thai food in Patong Beach Thailand.

Everytime my husband and I visit this restaurant we try something new. I can honestly tell you we have NEVER been disappointed. The food is AMAZING! The flavors / herbs/ spices explode in your mouth that's how flavorful their good is. I would recommend THIS restaurant . This place surpasses all the others.

Diner Review №167

They didn't have a lot of options, but the choices I picked, were delicious, there food is good, wouldn't mind going there a second time or more..if I could.
