Decent Thai food. Does the job.

Diner Review №3

Went during lunch time and ate their lunch special which the portions was extra nominal size for me. I couldn’t finish the delish layout to what they serve. Well worth the money and very flavorful. The server was extremely nice and the atmosphere is very specious and clean. Great lunch spot

Diner Review №4

Best Thai place in the area! So much more flavorful than other places. Our family favorites are the drunken noodles, Pad Thai and yellow curry with rice. Veggies are crisp and plentiful. Perfect to-go family meal. Super good pricing for what you get. Highly recommend giving this place a try!

Diner Review №5

Great place for dinner. The owners are nice and helpful in finding the perfect dishes for dinner.
We ordered a variety of dishes from pad Thai, green curry, larb, papaya, and stir fry eggplant. Every dish tasted great.
The Thai Tea and Thai coffee drinks are nice and sweet too.
The lobby is also well decorated.

Wonderful service. Beautiful environment. Flavor was different than Id had before at same place. A little heavy on the soy sauce in the drunken noodles but appreciated the vegetables and basil flavor. Pad Thai was too sweet w wrong type of noodles. Basically didn’t seem like Pad Thai. Chicken was delicious texture. Green curry was waaaay too salty. I let them know and they gave a discount. I brought home and added more coconut milk to remedy the over-seasoning. Brought iced tea and coffee home to use as creamer because it was waaaay too sweet. Basically too much sugar and salt. Pad Thai did not seem authentic. I still enjoyed drunken noodles and environment. Was very appreciative for discount. Still tipped for service.

If you are looking for a real thai food, I am highly recommend coming here.

Diner Review №27

I ordered food via Uber eats. The menu states that the items come with rice. But they arrived without. I called the restaurant and the owner was very rude. She said they haven’t served the items with rice since Covid. I asked her to send me some rice or refund some of my money. She told me she is too busy to talk to me.

Diner Review №28

Good food with great service. Affordable as well. I had the work wonton soup.....

Diner Review №29

What an awful restaurant!
The food is atrocious!

Ordered two dishes and a soup. They all looked and tasted the same including the soup!

Maybe it was their regular cook’s night off.

Im very familiar with Thai food so anyone who says the food here is good clearly doesn’t know Thai food.

Don’t waste your money here.

Diner Review №30

flavourful meal . ty. had ckn drunken noodle n beef w/ veg combo. I would recommend this place. BONUS. waiter dude was helpful n genuine.

Diner Review №31

Diner Review №32

Food is okay. I ordered to go for the first time cause it's closer then the usual spot I order. I ordered the beef larb. It needed more lime juice otherwise it was good. I also ordered the chicken skewers. The chicken satay needed more seasoning in my opinion and it was a bit dry to my liking. I also got the eggplant dish. That also needed more seasoning. It tasted bland. The only things I really enjoyed was the fried wings and papaya salad. I felt like they americanized the food too much and lost the authenticity.

Diner Review №33

Good

Diner Review №36

I posted on Yelp and I’m posting here. I walked in an hour ago and ordered the sweet and sour chicken. I had it before from this place and it was delicious. This time I don’t know what happened. Maybe it was a different cook. I would have preferred that they had told me they didn’t know how to make it instead of taking my $18. I paid $2 to get extra chicken but they still gave me the lunch portion size. They just gave me more vegetables. This is disappointing but I was thinking it would get better. It didn’t. The sauce wasn’t even sweet and sour sauce. They gave me tom yum sauce. It had some of the stewed tomatoes that’s in their Tom yum. They threw some pineapples in the sauce. I guess this was to throw me off. The sauce wasn’t even the thick consistency of the s&s sauce. I’m so disappointed. I’m angry that I wasted my money and I can’t take it back because I’m 20 minutes away from the restaurant. Maybe they thought I didn’t know what I was asking for. The food wasn’t good at all.

Diner Review №37

They good at preparing your meals your way. Prices reasonable but I was told yesterday that they will raise them because theirs suppliers already charging them much more. Super inflation is on the way.

Diner Review №38

Mean and rude. Made my order wrong called and the young lady took down my name. The next day when I attempted to retrieve my order I was yelled at by the older very mean and astonishingly rude woman. Try Chang's Thai in the Pomenade Center off Truxel and North Freeway Blvd. Their service is great and food is too.

I have had nothing but good experiences here so far. Returning customer

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

I really really like the food here. My favorite plates are DRUNKEN NOODLES and GREEN CURRY. I am looking forward to try the whole menu because everything is sooo tasty and it is delivered very quick. You can also call ahead of time so they can prepare your order. The only reason why i am rating 4 stars is because the staff is not very friendly, a little bit rude / hostile sometimes.

Diner Review №43

I came here and ordered drunkin noodles and it was delish the first time. Came a week later again and got the same dish and it wasn't the same. I payed 2 dollars for extra noodles and didn't seem like I got my extra noodles that I paid for. I think they added extra taxes to our order as well because it seemed higher then usual. Probably won't be coming back again.

Diner Review №44

very good food

Diner Review №45

Diner Review №46

I had to wait for my food for 27 min

Diner Review №47

During these Covid times they can be tough to communicate/place your order (1st call range 2o times then disconnected. 2nd call they picked up after the 10th ring was put on hold twice before I get through my order. Once you do the food is tasty, They did overload me with rice (3 full size containers for 3people). Got to have patience with them.

Diner Review №48

Our take out order was not what we asked for. It was so spicy we could not eat it and had to throw it out.

Diner Review №49

Excellent food" friendly service.

The drunken noodles were great! The service was prompt, polite, and professional. The serving size was good and the price very reasonable. Will definitely go again.

Diner Review №54

Second time there. Amazing flavors!!

Diner Review №55

We arrived before the lunch crowd yet didnt get our food until after. Our order was wrong and they didnt return to our table until they gave us our check. Never asked how the food was. We ordered two dishes from lunch menu and it took 45 min.

Diner Review №56

Can’t comment the food, because we never even got service for 15 minutes after sitting down.

Waitress was preoccupied with a customer issue, which we understood, but were disappointed in no attention given to menus or water after the situation was seemingly resolved (and the waitress paying attention to a customer she knew that arrived after us).

Not to mention, probably the last thing you want to experience after entering a restaurant is a bunch of commotion. As every service related book says — “the customer is always right. “

By tending to the customer issue, they saved $5 for a problem customer, and lost $40-50 of business from us.

Diner Review №57

Yellow curry is crazy delicious. Tried over a dozen items on the menu everything is always fresh and never disappoints. My favorite is the yellow curry with a side of sticky rice.

Diner Review №64

The best friend fish in California! I know a lot of people despise Tilapia for whatever reasons but that's all I've ordered from here for 5 years... actually ordered a lot more but it's my favorite

Diner Review №65

Good food but service is hit and miss.

Diner Review №66

Diner Review №67

Food was good, came out quickly and served was nice! Thai iced tea is no the best.

Diner Review №68

This is a terrible place to eat based on customer service. They gave me the wrong take out order and then refused to make it right. They wanted me to come back to the restaurant (over 2 miles away) so they could verify that the had actually given me the wrong dish, as if I'm going to the trouble to scam them over an $8 lunch special. The owner was belligerent, confrontational and generally unpleasant. Will never go there again just out of principle. People should learn something about customer service and basic decency.

Diner Review №69

Food was very good, staff was friendly but appeared to be understaffed at the time we were there. Was about a 20 to 30 minute wait for our food.

Diner Review №70

Food is tasty, but staff is very limited, especially before 6pm. The wait to order has been 20 minutes or more. This latest time my order was not taken correctly but I accepted what was brought anyway. Otherwise it's a nice place for a relaxed meal. The cucumber water was good.

Diner Review №71

Diner Review №72

Slow service, and get orders wrong often.

Diner Review №73

My favorite dishes are the Drunken Noodles, Green Curry, Lao sausages with sticky rice. Food here are tasty and they definitely give generous portions. Service is superb. This restaurant gives off that mom and pops family dining energy! Love it here & addicted!

Friendly staff, fast service and their curry noodle soup is delicious! Seems like a hole in the wall place from the outside view but if you go in and try the food you wont be disappointed! Love this place!

This is one of my favorite places for Thai food. Their curries are some if the best I've had and I've been to at least a dozen Thai restaurants. Service is usually great and food never fail to satisfy. Yum!

Diner Review №90

Great customer service and amazing food. If you like Bangkok Garden, you'll love this place much more. Better food here by far.

Diner Review №91

Diner Review №92

I have been going here for years! Love their food and the spot. It's not super big inside but not really small either. Tables are just in the open area. I normally order Togo. Lunch time is madness- super busy. Combo veggie medium spicy is my go to.

Diner Review №93

Very bad service,
Server is always angry. We ordered egg rolls, she brought meat rolls, we specifically mentioned not to bring meat rolls. When we said this to her about this. She just ignored it.

Thai food, yeah, super delicious. This location is absolutely outstanding. Had a friend come into town and asked me to take him here again.

Diner Review №101

Great service tasty food and I really like the price I would recommend it I had the drunken noodles with chicken and a side of spring vegetable egg rolls it's a family ran place I like supporting locally owned family ran businesses. If you're looking for a place to go this is it you will be happy the food is large portion and priced Right.

Diner Review №102

Food is well prepared. Delicious!!

Diner Review №103

Their food is always delicious!! Hadn't been in a while so hubby and I stopped by since we were in the area.

Diner Review №104

I've only been once, but I intend to return! Food was very good (and suitably spicy for the level I requested!) and they even stopped by to chat with us while they were closing up. This is one of those hidden gems that is worth it if you like good authentic thai food.

Diner Review №105

Diner Review №106

Service was not good at all. Some of our order was brought out but several other items were completely forgotten about until we asked. Just simply not enough staff to cover.

Diner Review №107

Authentic food, friendly staff

Diner Review №108

I tried Bangkok city for the first time today and it was awesome! The staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. I ordered papaya salad, red curry chicken, drunken noodles and Thai iced tea for myself and my brother. I will definitely be back!

Diner Review №116

Diner Review №117

Food is delicious (panang, red curry, veggie egg rolls, thai cashew nut, pad thai are all the different items i've tried so far in 6 months) but service isn't the best. Only 1 person working and she's answering phones, taking orders, serving food, taking payment etc. Etc. Too much work for 1 person! I almost always order carry out and have been quite happy with the food and it's always ready in the amount of time she tells me. Will be going back. At least for carry out.

Diner Review №131

Diner Review №132

Diner Review №133

I ordered food to go! The pad Thai was good. The fresh shrimp rolls were BAD, the lettuce tasted like the refrigerator and there was no flavor. The sauces were terrible, the worst peanut sauce I’ve ever had and the other sauce was indelible too. I hate throwing away food but I’d never order those again. Decent size portions but I won’t be back 😞

Diner Review №141

Not recommended at all. The place wasn't clean (tabletops, etc.) and there were several cracks/chips in the glass table cover (over the tablecloths) that cut my friend on her arm when we sat down (minor, but still unacceptable). Every table accept 3 were empty when we arrived @ 1:15PM but ALL were covered w/ dirty dishes from the lunch rush! No busing service, the single waitperson (nice and apologetic) was handling all the clean up and order taking by herself. It took 10 mins to get seated, again only 3 tables were occupied...so maybe that poor wait staff was in back cooking or doing dishes! Also, food (spring rolls & Tom Kha Gai soup) had very little flavor - Thai ice tea was good.

Diner Review №142

I absolutely love the curry dishes with brown rice. I've tried the yellow, green & red and they are all equally delicious.

Diner Review №156

Excellent Thai food!!

Diner Review №157

One of the best Thai restaurants I have eaten in Sacramento... Awesome flavors... Nice and spicy

Diner Review №158

The service was horrible and I had ordered hot and the sever told me she didn’t have time to make me hot tea. Then she brings me a dish I didn’t even order. Then my friend ordered a dish, the server came out and said they didn’t have any more. The not even two minelayer the fish my fiend ordered magically appeared. Huh?! It obviously was someone else’s order because it was spicy when she ordered mild. I was really disappointed! I wouldn’t recommend.

Diner Review №159

Fantastic food. My go-to. I've been loving the "Meat and Vegetables" menu... particularly the Thai Chili Basil plate, the Garlic Lovers, and the Ginger Lovers. I mostly eat their chicken. I've tried the tofu which was good too (I asked for fried tofu). I love the vibe inside. Very colorful with awesome art on the walls. This place rules. I highly recommend it.

Diner Review №160

Delicious food, quickly served.

Diner Review №161

I went there for lunch and ordered the pad Thai. It was blan to say the least. My wife’s food was also pretty boring on the side of taste. I won’t bother to go there again with better Thai places in the area.

Diner Review №168

This place has really good Thai food! I ordered the Green Thai Curry (extra spicy) and my husband ordered the Drunken Noodles (I believe). We both really enjoyed our meals, and will definitely be going back!

Delicious food. Friendly staff. Love the fried tofu!

My thai fried rice only had 3 pieces of chicken. Food tasted disgusting. What a waste of time and money, will never come back. I left half of my food behind, thats how bad it was.

Diner Review №173

Diner Review №174

I like the food here, but the ambience is quite and confortable

Diner Review №175

Diner Review №176

Very delicious Thai food always. Try the Tom Gia soup. The best Asian soup hands down

Diner Review №177

I don't know what's going on with Lotus, their food and service used to be excellent, but the last couple of times I ordered food it was not only bad it was horrible, I ordered Wor Won Ton soup and granted it was right before they closed, it tasted like they gave me whatever they could find in a bowl!! Then today I took my son to have dinner there, I ordered garlic chicken and there was not a taste of garlic, but it looked like they cut up a whole onion, with some mixed vegetables, I asked the waiter what was these little sliced brown things on my plate, I was thinking maybe they were garlic, Why did the waiter pull out his phone and google it!! I'm done with Lotus, they need to get the old cook and server's back.

Diner Review №178

Always a great place to go for great food

Diner Review №181

Diner Review №182

Delicious!! Great service, super friendly.

Diner Review №183

Food not too exciting. Good service.

Diner Review №184

The eggplant in their Spicy Japanese Eggplant was not flavorful like I have had at other Thai restaurant. I would guess that it was not cooked in the sauce for very long. However, the service and food were both very fast, price was great, and the food was good other than this one issue.

Diner Review №185

Good food and good service. I love drunken noodles, they're not the best here but still very good.

Diner Review №186

Diner Review №193

Food is consistently good here. Yellow Curry, Tom Kha, Kao Poon, all good choices.

Diner Review №194

My cousin & I were craving Thai food and decided to try some take-out. We ordered inside & the woman taking our order was very sweet & even complimented our pronunciation of the menu items. The prices were reasonable, portions were fairly standard for asian restaurants (so a bit large) and even the person who wasn't too keen on Thai enjoyed the Chicken Satay and egg rolls. Drunken noodles & Pad-see-ew were both very good. Pad Thai was just okay.

Diner Review №195

Good good and friendly service

Diner Review №196

Great pad thai

Diner Review №197

We have spicy chicken fried rice, chicken wings, and eggplant tofu.. recommended!

Diner Review №198

Our favorite Thai Spot. Great food. Great service. Great people. Nice & cozy.

Their Tom Yum soup is amazing!
