Shandra Thai Cuisine
About Us

In 1994, Walla and Michael moved their family from the bustling streets of Los Angeles to the quiet suburbs of Palmdale, CA. Finding that there were not many options for quality Thai food in the Antelope Valley, we decided to open a restaurant to fill that niche.
Our goal was to serve the freshest food, flavors reminiscent of our childhoods in Thailand- aromatic, spicy, salty, sweet and tangy, all robust yet balanced. The harmony of those flavors incorporates organically grown ingredients from their own garden, such as fresh kaffir lime leaves.

This place was great and the food was delicious. The server went out of his way to explain the dishes. This place is a must.

Diner Review №3

Prices are higher and portions are smaller. My white rice was so mushy, definitely over cooked.

12/27/24 Fri @ noon.
This place is a gem. It's not a big restaurant, but it makes up for it with the best food and cozy relaxing atmosphere.
The waiter was very patient, as we had 2 elderly guests with us. He brought us everything soon enough. Food took around 20min to arrive.
fyi: It gets busy at lunch.
Just be prepared for the variety in the menu. So many good dishes. I ordered simple pork chow mein, and it was the best I've ever tried!
Too much good stuff to list. You just have to try it once.

Diner Review №11

Not worth it. Full price chicken curry plate with no rice and the shrimp fried was mostly rice with a few shrimp. Dont recommend it, there is better Thai food elsewhere in the AV.

Diner Review №12

Diner Review №13

I ordered a Spicy & Sour Seafood soup and they didn't add any shrimp and only 2 pieces of fish and 2 pieces of mushrooms. There was more Vegetables then anything else. I've had other issues with there orders before and this is the last time order from this place. Way to expensive for the food. This place misses orders and not a recommendable place.

Diner Review №14

Prices are ok now with inflation you know what to expect

Diner Review №15

Pork sticks barely cooked ... Bareley touched a grill eeewwww then no sauce.... Eewwwww .. rice in a bag of no .... All bad never again

Diner Review №16

I love this place. Tucked away on the corner of a strip mall, this place is magical inside. It's suitable for a date or casual meal. The food is constantly excellent. They have special surprises on the menu such as the fresh coconut milk in the coconut shell!! I highly recommend this restaurant!

Diner Review №17

Delicious food
Especially the wor womtom soup

Diner Review №18

GREAT food and service

Diner Review №19

I will start off with why I am upset. I am upset that I did not know about this place sooner! Wow! The staff and owner are so friendly and welcoming. Great atmosphere and love the vibe of this place. Service was top notch. I had the green tea to drink and they sweeten it perfectly. Not too much and not too little.

We started off with the coconut chicken soup. So good and soothing. I would LOVE to order it every time I get sick because it seems PERFECT for that. I caught myself just sipping on that broth alot. Get this soup! The lemony coconut base was so good.

Next dish, the papaya salad. So refreshing and tasty. I definitely want to try it with a little bit of spice next time but it was PERFECT without it, too. If you want a salad, go with the papaya salad.

I love me some Thai fried rice and this is the first place I have been to that offers it with pork belly, so we had to. I quite enjoy the way they make their pork belly. Slight crunch on the outside. It had a soft chicharron vibe to it and complimented the rice really well. So tasty.

I LOVE pad see iew so I had to get it. We got it with beef and it was so good. Great flavor, perfect amount of veggies, and I just really enjoyed it. My least favorite of what we got but still damn good.

Now it's time for my ABSOLUTE MOST FAVORITE... the spicy egg plant! Wow, I was blown away by this. Protein chosen for this one was chicken and it all complimented each other so well. Bursting with flavor and the egg plant was perfect. Even if I hated all the other items, which I didn't at all, I would keep coming back just for the spicy egg plant. WOW!

I usually get green curry when I get Thai but wanted to try something new. So we got the roasted duck curry. Wow! I personally recommend getting it with it's standard spice because it was PLENTY for this dish. Made a big fan of my partner as she LOVED it and so did I. Way to make it difficult for me to pick a curry in the future.

This place is top tier in so many ways. I usually dislike driving to Palmdale for food as I live in north west Lancaster. With places like this, a trip to east Palmdale isn't a problem at all. I can't wait to come back again and again!

Diner Review №20

We love this restaurant! Great family owned, atmosphere and ambience is great, service is the best, and most of all food is delicious! So worth the 40min. drive for us from the San Fernando Valley! Thank you from the Hernandez family!

Diner Review №21

My family and I have been going for 20 years. Best Thai food not in Thailand! Family owned business done right!

Diner Review №22

Diner Review №23

I can't recommend this Thai restaurant enough! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic meal. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. We love that

Now, let's talk about the important part. THE FOOD!
I started with the Tom Yum soup, which was perfectly balanced with a mix of tangy, spicy, and savory flavors. For the main course, I had the Pad Thai. YUM! The noodles were perfectly cooked, the sauce had just the right amount of sweetness, and the portion size was generous. I also tried the pineapple curry, the richness of the coconut milk paired with the fresh vegetables was chefs kiss!
I have so many dishes I want to try. Can't wait to return.
If you're a fan of Thai cuisine or looking to try something new, this place should be at the top of your list.

Diner Review №29

Found this fabulous place on the Internet as we were travelling to LA. Authentic and delicious food with attentive service. Portions are generous.

Diner Review №30

Pretty good but not worth the price for the portions. I usually spent $60 for myself for lunch and still end up hungry :(

Diner Review №31

Food was okay but I found a thread of a metal sponge in my pan fried noodles which is not at all clean or safe.

Diner Review №32

I love going here, it's my favorite Thai restaurant in the Antelope Valley. They have great options and wonderful service.

Diner Review №33

Diner Review №34

I'm a regular customer. We visit at least once a week.
Lately, the service has changed.
Yesterday I arrived at 8:45 pm and they wouldn't let us dine in.
Food is good, but service not anymore.
Really disappointed

Diner Review №35

I used to love this place, but quality unfortunately has gone down.
We ordered yesterday for a celebration, and the pad see ew had absolutely no flavor with overcooked chicken. The Thai fried rice was also super bland. The only thing decent was the chicken pineapple curry, and it had hardly any chicken.

We were highly disappointed.

Diner Review №37

Diner Review №38

Diner Review №39

Food pretty good 13.99 for for a small portion of orange chicken and you have to pay for the steamed rice. 15 dollars for a gallon of soup. Doesn't make sense but to each its own.

Diner Review №40

Food is delicious! My favorite is the pad see ew and seafood soup with steamed rice!!! The owner is always working hard I see you putting in that work!!!!

Diner Review №41

Food is good. People are friendly. Portion sizes are VERY small for the prize. Probably the smallest portions out of any of the Thai places I've been in the valley.

Diner Review №42

Diner Review №43

The waiting is understandable but it sucks to be a ignored. A quick "will be with you in abit" or any acknowledgement at all would be appreciated.

Diner Review №44

Diner Review №45

The food was very delicious from all three plates. we do not have one bad thing to say, same with the appetizers' the eggrolls were hot, fresh, and crispy! Will be returning and am going to recommend to all my friends and family wonderful first-time experience!

This food was not good at all, I got the shrimp fried rice that had 2 shrimp. The taste of the rice was weird and unpleasant. I also got the orange chicken and Mongolian beef. The orange chicken was decent but the beef was tasteless and tough.

Wow, my first visit yo Shandra and I am impressed! What a cute, clean place. I actually ordered to go. This is definitely, really good Thai food. I have tried many Thai restaurants in my life and this one has amazing food. It's up there, in my book, as one that has the best tasting food. I will certainly return and eat in.

Food was amazing

Diner Review №90

The amount of food we received was laughable. For the price per plate, it should have been at least enough for one person.

Diner Review №91

Diner Review №92

Diner Review №93

I always try one dish to gauge the quality of the restaurant, most basic dish that all Thai restaurants have. That was the BBQ spare ribs. It's supposed to fall off the bone. Sadly it didn't happen here.

Diner Review №94

Primera vez que voy a ese lugar y no me decepciono, la comida esta riquísima, buena atención y buen ambiente! Claro que lo recomiendo mucho. Solamente que como esta rico si va mucha gente así es que si toca esperar un poco pero todo bien vale mucho la pena!👍😊

So delicious 😋. Tried new foods they were awesome. The service was super quick too!

Diner Review №108

Laid back joint with EXCELLENT food and attentive and friendly waitstaff. What's not to love? My go to is always the curries. This time I got the red curry-- check out that presentation. The flavor was even better! This is one of my two favorite Thai places in the AV to dine at.

Diner Review №109

I usually get the pad see ew chicken. One of my favorites in town.

Diner Review №110

Their aromatic dishes and cozy setting never failed to impress me.

Diner Review №116

I love the Papaya Salad and Wontons. I also had the chow mein and it was dry. The orange Chicken was okay but a very small portion. Service was fine only checked on us once and we needed napkins.

Diner Review №117

Saltiest food place ever I can’t believe how salty this place is and it’s overpriced. The Thai tea is so sweet I almost got diabetes from it.

Diner Review №118

Diner Review №119

Diner Review №120

I cannot believe how bad the food has gotten here. The Thai tea was so sugary I could not drink any of it. My glass noodle soup was so salty I had to send it back and asked for the coconut soup instead, and it too was so salty I had to add rice to make it edible. My daughter's yellow curry was so spicy she couldn't eat it, and she always orders yellow curry at every Thai place we go. I will never go back and I am so sad because this place was a stable for us during the pandemic and it is a tragedy. The place across the street is amazing and I strongly suggest going there.

Diner Review №121

After looking around for a good Thai restaurant we saw this one with good reviews. It was a last minute stop for Father's day, we do regret having stopped by 30 minutes before closing.
Parking was accessible since the restaurant is within a plaza which has other stores. Food is good,service is good as well. The menu has several choices of food, including vegetarian options also a variety of drinks. The dinning area is a somewhat small however we do recommend this restaurant !

Diner Review №122

Love coming to Shandra for their coconut lemon grass soups. Absolutely the best.

Diner Review №123

The food used to be amazing, we picked up food yesterday for the first time in 4 years and it was not like I remembered, chicken was very dry. The people that work there are very nice.

BEST THAI IN ALL OF AV
Legit, from their Thai tea to their food, nothing is ever subpar! The food is 12/10, the Thai tea 100/10, everything here is DELICIOUS. My bf and I got the coconut chicken soup, the shrimp fried rice, and beef chow mein, plus you CANNOT forget the chicken egg rolls. All that amazing food was worth the price. We even had leftovers, and we ATE, lemme tell you. We were eating to our hearts content and we still had tons left over. Don’t even get me started on their customer service! They were attentive but also left us alone while we ate, super considerate and I have honestly not one bad thing to say about Shandra’s. Truly the best Thai place and I ain’t going anywhere else ever! Thanks Shandra’s!!

Every since the male cook left the Beef Salad is Nasty we pay all that extra money for extras, yet the cook who makes the Beef Salad isn't doing it right, forgets ingredients, and the sauce is a yellow clear sauce which is so Nasty! Until they get a cook who knows how to cook Thai food right? I'll never go back!

Great food and service. My family enjoys the food.

Diner Review №160

The WORST service. All the servers passed my table many times and i had to wait 30 minutes just to get a refill on three drinks. I sat another 30 minutes waiting for the check. They do not check up on you.

Diner Review №161

Diner Review №162

The first time I went here, it wasn't so great. However, I'm very happy I gave it another shot. The food is very tasty, especially the duck. The pad see lew is also recommended.

Diner Review №163

"If you're looking for an authentic Thai dining experience in Antelope Valley, look no further than this hidden gem of a restaurant! From the moment you walk in, the warm and inviting atmosphere immediately transports you to the streets of Bangkok. The decor is simple yet elegant, featuring traditional Thai artifacts and lanterns, creating a cozy and intimate setting.

The menu is a culinary delight, offering a wide range of dishes that will tantalize your taste buds. The Tom Yum soup is a must-try, with a perfect balance of sour, sweet, and spicy flavors. The Pad Thai is another standout dish, made with perfectly stir-fried noodles, tender meats, and a savory sauce. And for those seeking a bit of heat, the Green Curry is an excellent choice, bursting with flavor and heat from the fresh chili paste.

The service is top-notch, with the staff always willing to go the extra mile to ensure you have a wonderful dining experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a delicious meal, this Thai restaurant is the perfect place to go.

In conclusion, if you're a fan of Thai cuisine or simply looking for a new dining adventure, this restaurant is a must-visit. With its delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and excellent service, you won't be disappointed."

The food is incredibly sub-par here. I have given them three tries. On my last attempt, I ordered the fried rice with pork belly. For $16, I was definitely expecting a quality meal. Everything was dry and unseasoned. The service isn't that great either. Never again.

Diner Review №167

They don't give good attention, they make you wait too long, they are so unfriendly. I have seen that they come to bring door dash and the delivery men wait for up to 10 minutes standing, they really are the worst restaurant in the area

Diner Review №168

The shrimp spicy sour soup is geat!

Diner Review №169

Busy place especially at noon. Tasty food but not as authentic. Service is fairly quick. Atmosphere is loud and busy. No outdoor seating. Limited and tight parking. Not for RV. Restrooms available.

I ordered cashews tofu and it was delicious. Being a vegan this hit the spot. Pricey though.

Diner Review №196

I love Shandra Thai they're real good.

Diner Review №197

Came here as it was highly recommended by family to try .... It was fine? The deep fried oysters were incredibly unpleasant to eat. They tasted dirty , as if they were not a good quality oyster, also some weird black and green liquid came out of them. The rice was fine and the Pad Thai was , again, fine. Nothing spectacular. Maybe I just didn't order the best food they have to offer. Again it was all fine spare those oysters.

Diner Review №198

Diner Review №199

It's usually good... maybe they had a bad day. Maybe this food was left by someone because this pad tai was super dry and this is supposed to be a lime. Why would you put this lome in someone's food?

Diner Review №200

Love the pad thai
