I’ve been here at least a half of dozen times now and the food is always served hot & fresh. The service is always excellent, the staff is always friendly and checks on you frequently for refill your drinks which is a plus especially if you order spicy. The Pad Thai and Masamun Curry is my go to here.

Diner Review β„–2

Everything was good some prices are soooo ridiculous. $9 cup of soup! A cup!!!! 9 dollars a cup. But a dinner portion serves 7 is $14

Diner Review β„–3

Service sucks and long wait times. Servers will lie and tell you it’s only 5 min wait end up waiting 30 min and kept by passing my order

Diner Review β„–4

I've only been to 3 Vietnamese restaurants in town, including this one and so far this place in my opinion is the best of them. Not because the food is much better, but the wait staff and amenities are a little better in quality. A gripe I have about most Vietnamese restaurants is it's rare they'll offer fountain drinks, they just hand you a can of soda which wasn't the case here.

Palm Thai Lake Elsinore has become my family’s go-to spot for delicious Vietnamese cuisine. The quality and quantity of food we receive here are exceptional, especially given the reasonable prices. For a family of four, we spend around $80, which is comparable to what we’d spend at fast food joints, but here we get so much more value for our money.

In these challenging economic times, finding a place that offers both affordability and quality is truly appreciated. Highly recommend Palm Thai for anyone looking for great food at a great price!

Best Thai food in town!
Everyone was delicious. Curries, noodles, fried rice. Take your pick your won't regret any of them. The spice levels are pretty high, so like a 3 is a spicy in other places, 5 would be super spicy. So a 1-2 if you like no to decent spice levels.

Best Thai food I’ve ever had the yellow curry and the pot sticker soup were amazing. The waitresses were very attentive

Diner Review β„–40

Roaches, really! So I really wanted this review to be an excellent one. However, it is not going to be. The food was very good, but I did not expect to see the visitor in the bathroom once I visited it after my meal. THEN ... I felt nauseated after I got in my car
... AND NO, the nausea was not from the new knowledge of a roach, but apparently something did not agree with my stomach. Of course I won't be back.

Great food, good service. Price Worth it.

Diner Review β„–46

We have been loyal customers of this delicious restaurant. Recently I joined their birthday club and was overjoyed to get an email for my birthday month. When I tried to redeem email the staff told me it was for "dine-in only" no where on the email did it say "dine-in only" I pointed that out and still got a "no sorry" since I was already running late to pick up my daughter I just paid and left. Just know they will not honor any coupons unless it's "dine-in only" very disappointed since my total was $98.

Service was fast and friendly. Can’t go wrong with their Thai fried rice and pad Thai; both were incredibly flavorful and portioned well. The tom yum was my favorite and had a uniquely robust flavor. Would absolutely eat here again!

The worse place to eat the service is very bad I am not going to came back to this place

Diner Review β„–68

This is the best, hands down, Thai food in the city and all the other surrounding cities. We actually live a little far and commute just to come here. The Pad Thai is the best we've ever had. The summer rolls, Beef Pho, and Chicken Satay are our favorites. They are also very gluten free friendly and will help you find what is best. (Everything we order except the Pho is gluten free.) We go at least once a week and it is out of this world every time. Very reccomended.

A Memorable Thai Experience in Lake Elsinore

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Palm Thai Cuisine in Lake Elsinore, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a beautifully decorated interior, giving an immediate feeling of being transported to Thailand.

The menu is impressively diverse, with authentic Thai dishes well represented. I opted for the Tom Yum Soup as a starter, and its balance of spice and sour was just perfect. The depth of flavor hinted at the meticulous care put into its preparation.

For the main course, the Pad Thai and Green Curry Chicken were an absolute treat. The Pad Thai was impeccably balanced with a medley of flavors, and the Green Curry Chicken was rich, fragrant, and had just the right kick.

What truly sets Palm Thai Cuisine apart is the quality of their ingredients. The freshness of the vegetables and meats is apparent in every bite, adding a layer of complexity to their dishes that is hard to find elsewhere.

Service was prompt and attentive, with the staff going out of their way to ensure our meal was enjoyable. They were more than happy to recommend dishes and adjust the level of spiciness according to preference.

Overall, Palm Thai Cuisine offers a superb dining experience. Its combination of an inviting atmosphere, delicious and authentic Thai cuisine, and impeccable service earns it my highest recommendation. A must-visit when in Lake Elsinore.

Excellent service food is great always friendly and very clean place

Yummy food. Almost as good as I get in Thai Town in Hollywood California. A little expensive. For 5 people I paid $100.00 so expect to shell out about 20.00 per person.

I was so dissatisfied and disappointed, the food was stale. I ordered Pad Thai and it definitely seemed pre-heated and it came with maybe 7 sprouts at the top of the noodles so once I opened it, it did not seem appetizing any longer. I won't be going back.

Simple ambiance, fast service, good food and fair prices.

I love the food. However you have to be careful, they charge my debit card twice. They will run your card once for your total and they the entire amount of you include tip. For example I got charge $77.31 for my tab then $88.67 after I included tip. This is the second time it happens at the same restaurant so it’s not a random human error

Diner Review β„–97

Diner Review β„–98

Delicious Thai dishes but small plates to put it all on. Worth going!

Diner Review β„–99

They did a great job preemptively warning us that they were only accepting cash because the internet was down at the restaurant. Great service and great food.

Great service by the staff and especially Kat! Quality food! Dine in and take out are both fast.

The worst ever no bowls for pho to go no cutlery the worst put together I’ve ever seen please explain how we are supposed to eat this

Diner Review β„–103

Diner Review β„–104

Prices have skyrocketed. For a bowl of soup and 4 chicken skewers the cost was approximately $24. The prices have nearly doubled plus some. Ridiculous.

Food was great, there was just a really loud and obnoxious waitress who was talking very loudly which kind of ruined the experience.

Diner Review β„–108

Diner Review β„–109

I sat outside because I had a sore throat. The waitress served us. They brought the 3 meals out...1 at a time. I ordered ice tea...which they never came back to refill. I asked for Thai chilly in my spicy rice. She brought back some ground chilli that could not have been Thai chilli. Looked like the stuff you get for your pizza.

I left an 18 to 20% tip($10), but asked for a refill on my ice tea. She brought me a cup of water. I asked for tea, and she went back to get tea. She didn't know that we all spoke Thai, so when she walked away mocking me to get the tea, I already decided I wasn't going to drink it.

A customer should not feel that way.

I wish them the best. I suggest getting Thai chilli in a Thai restaurant. Also, improve customer service. I was here a year ago, and I remember the food and service being much better. As for me, probably won't eat there again. The mocking really rubbed me wrong. Best if I go to a different restaurant.

Diner Review β„–110

Clean. Friendly. Amazing Service. Great Food! First time here, very nice staff, very organized & clean place. The food options and quality is really good. The staff checks on you several times and makes sure everything is great

Diner Review β„–111

Too expensive and not the best shrimp pad thai. They charged 17.78 for 2 dollars noodles and they actually counted 5 pieces of shrimp 🍀 thats just price gouging for sea food items

Diner Review β„–112

Caty is a great waitress and the food is great!

Diner Review β„–113

The prices are higher and the portions are smaller. I feel like I got ripped off. They gave me one handful of pad Thai noodles and charged me 16 dollars and I didn't even order meat in it.

Diner Review β„–114

Diner Review β„–115

The food was ok, I think the one in wildomar is better from what I remember.

Diner Review β„–116

Diner Review β„–117

I ordered the garlic pepper beef for takeout and it was the worst garlic pepper I ever had, and I've had this dish hundreds of times at many Thai restaurants. The sauce lacked flavor, and was swimming in oil. It was so oily my wife had to absorb it in a napkin to be edible. The beef was tough and chewy. All in all, a most unpleasant dining experience. This was my first and last visit to this place. If we had dined in instead of take out, I would have got up and walked out. It was that bad.

Diner Review β„–118

Diner Review β„–119

I've been here with my sister and nephew more than once. We love Kat, she is friendly and we definitely support our community Thai restaurant. I ordered through the phone 2 orders of Chicken and Veggie Steamed Dumplings. I added Schricha Sauce. They also have them fried if you prefer them like that. Other plates I recommend is the orange chicken with fried rice and Yellow Curry with Chicken. I also like the Potato Yellow Curry. The Yellow Curry can be regular or Spicy and you get to pick.

I did an order through doordash when I called the restaurant she said I had to have doordash pay me my money back. They did not package the coconut soup properly it opened up and spilled all over the inside of the bag and she wants me to get everything back from doordash the money. They obviously do not honor their service

We have eaten here at Palm Thai restaurant before and have always liked their food! However we hardly ever ventured far from the menu and tried other dishes. Obviously we have our favorite dishes. That being said, So we decided too try something new. I ordered the yellow Curry with crispy Chicken and it was Awesome!!
My hubby ordered the Chicken Pho and he said it was the Best He's ever had!!
I agree!! I think I'm going to have to go back and have the Pho today!! Lol . Yes it's that yummy! πŸ€€πŸ˜‹
So if you like Thai food and are and either Murrieta California or Lake Elsinore California you have to try Palm Thai cuisine! They have an extensive menu and everything we've tried has been very good! We will definitely be back again!!
