The food here is not what it used to be. Thai Boat Noodle Soup: very salty. possibly due to excess use of MSG missing meatballs soggy noodles Lao Papaya Salad: Papaya was definitely not fresh and tough muted flavors or more on the light side half the container was reserved for the cabbage. like come on read more

Amazed to find an authentic Thai restaurant in the desert, because most establishments are more like Chinese food with only some Thai dishes and spices. I learned from the gracious owner that husband and wife live In Ridgecrest/ inyokern and drive every weekend to Thai town in Los Angeles to select true Thai ingredients. The noodles, rice dishes, curry, appetizers and even drinks -- yes EVERYTHING -- is straight out of Thai town, so to speak Don't let the demure outside fool you, the interior is fresh, modern, and comfortable First tried a few days ago and now back! So so good read more

It's been two for two! This is the SECOND restaurant that looked a bit sketchy from the outside during our road trip to Mammoth, but was REALLY GOOD!!! The inside had a cute vibe, although the bathroom was outdated. Regardless of the aestetics, the food was AMAZING! The chicken wings were fried to perfection-the teriyaki sauce (on the side) was absolutely delicious. The Yellow Chicken Curry, Orange Chicken, Beef Lumpua, and Rice soup were also great! NOTE TO SELF for next time: Their slushies are made with dairy (half and half). The service was great! read more

It is true that this restaurant serves authentic and great tasting Thai food. I didn't believe a former diner's review until I tried it. The owner and chef are Thai. We order the Bangkok fried rice and Tom kar seafood and ended with mango sticky rice for dessert. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. Prices were reasonable. Service was great. By the way, they charged only $4 per glass of wine. read more

Very peaceful environment. After being on the road, come here to calm down. Had the Thai Boat Noodle Soup with pork and beef. Great dish. I added enough hot & spicy condiments to strip paint. Delish. Too few restaurants make this and some screw it up trying to do it. Come here for authentic Thai food, not the Chinese and Korean knockoffs. You want your owner to Thai, not Chinese or Korean, as is the case at most "Thai" restaurants. Just ask where the owner is from. read more

My favorite spot in Ridgecrest! The Green Curry is incredible and service is great. I come here every time I'm in town. Very popular for takeout, always pretty empty inside but a cute vibe. They also are one of the few restaurants in Ridgecrest that are good for gluten allergies! The owner was very accommodating for someone in my group who can't eat gluten. read more

I chose to come here with my colleague since it's just down the street from the Navy Base. The restaurant has a casual vibe with plenty of space inside. It wasn't very crowded, likely because China Lake is a remote area with one of the largest Navy Bases in the country. The staff was friendly and seemed to have a lot of roles--server, receptionist, cook, maybe even the owner! I might return if I decide to dine in rather than just get takeout, as I usually opt for Chipotle, Panda, or other fast food. read more

I wish I could leave 0 stars. The "chicken" pananga and "chicken" red curry barely had 3 pieces of chicken and were extremely watery. read more

We ordered 4 items online. They told us it would be ready at 6, which was 45 minutes of waiting time. When we got there the place was empty. When we got home they missed an item in our order. We went back to tell them and they said they didn't make it, they will make it now. I kindly asked for a refund or a little compensation for having to come back and then he said I'm making you a new one, what's the problem. He said I make you a new one, don't come here again because of my complaint. That's is such horrible customer service for a small town! No sorry, nothing. Very unprofessional. They did call back to give a $5 discount but then again said to never order here again. Good job on providing good customer service to Ridgecrest. Lost our business for sure. read more

This restaurant was surprisingly delicious. Was not expecting to find decent Thai food out in the boonies. They seated us right away and were very attentive. Definitely would come here again should I find myself in the desert. I had the Khao Soi and it was perfect. The curry was delicious and with a squirt of lemon, it wasn't too heavy either. read more

The guy who is a server needs mental health treatment. Very rude, he literally took our food and plates when we were eating and threw all the food away. The food tasted nothing like Thai food. Horrible food and the most terrible horrible service. Again that guy server really needs metal health treatment read more

Good food, even better service. Totally recommend it. Went in there not knowing what to expect. Not disappointed at all

I dont understand how anyone can give this place anything other than 5 star review. This place was beyond what I expected. Food was just right, not overpowering of any spices. Nicely balanced I would say. Too bad I live so far from here, or I would be back here all the time. Do not skip pass this place! read more

This place has soared to the top in just a few months after their first new opening's. It truly failed At first but now the New owner has stepped up on service's and major food tastes that are very delicious with good wholesome oriental flavors. The beef jerky was dynamite!!! I had the fish with Choo Chee sauce it was to die for!!! And please don't forget to try the Orange chicken with a side of chicken fried rice yummy read more

New to Ridgecrest from LA and making my rounds and this is gonna be my spot for sure. AUTHENTIC Thai food that blows away a lot of restaurants when it comes to Thai food. The folks here are very friendly, fast, and hospitable. Bae and I had boat noodle soup, Laos style papaya salad, beef jerky, and sticky rice. Boat noodle soup has an aromatic and tasty (pork free) broth that you can immediately tell has been simmering and developing complexity, the beef jerky was fried perfectly so the dark soy carmelized but didn't burn, papaya salad had the perfect amount of shrimp paste and fish sauce to not overpower the vegetables but give you that funky goodness that dances well with the acidity from the citrus and sweetness of the grape tomatoes, AND my sticky rice was fresh which if you eat Asian food or have any sense you know damn well how important rice is to the meal. They pulled no punches with flavor and made everything like my momma who comes from Northern Thailand like these lovely folks. I came here on a Saturday night and would order the next day if I could but now it gives me a reason to look forward to Monday. I'm obsessed. read more

Takeout tonight. Just came off a 12 hour drive and wanted to take off my shoes and relax. Excellent Green Papaya Salad. MEDIUM heat was just right for me. I have been to Thailand countless times over the past 40 years. This is the one dish that separates fake Thai from real Thai. This one had the right ingredients, no substitutions. Had Pad See Ew. Lots of tender pork with a nice ginger sauce. Everything was fresh. Too many Thai places get that wrong. Next time, I will have Thai Boat Noodle Soup. Strongly recommend. read more

Bangkok House Restaurant - Fried chicken with Sticky Rice - Thai Near Me - Ridgecrest, California

I decided to try this place because they have mango skicky rice. For dinner, I ordered the special, BBQ pork (no photo ). It came in a delicious sauce on a bed of rice with a few slices of cucumber and sausage. They also had some spicy sauce and green onion garnish. It was very good! Then for dessert.....mango sticky rice!!! It was heaven. I will definitely come back here the next time I come to town. read more

They much have changed the cook because the food taste different now, and I ordered the same thing. The Rad Nah still tasted the same, but they only had broccoli. They used to have more variety with the veggies. I ordered the fried fish with veggies. The flavor for the veggies was weird. It smelled like shrimp paste. And the size of the fish was smaller. The yellow curry was a disappointment. Not only they gave us half the amount they used to give, but the flavor wasn't that good. There was a lack of coconut/thickness to the sauce. It lack the curry. My husband also bought the chowmein a few months ago and it wasn't that great. It noodle was quite broken, and the flavor was average. Their fried rice was good, just smaller amount. If I to order from them again, I will just order the fried rice. read more

I have visited Thailand twice and this place reminded me of my trips. Good food and good service. Would definitely recommend this.

Bangkok House Restaurant - Chicken Pho - Thai Near Me - Ridgecrest, California

Word to the wise ... make sure to PICK UP your food instead of getting it delivered. Bangkok Thai used to be the hot spot a long time ago as you can see from my last review. NOW... it's gone down the drain. I feel so bad leaving this review but the restaurant needs to realize to step up on their food game. I'm not coming back here again nor do I advise anyone to order their sweet and sour chicken. read more

The service was impeccable. We absolutely slammed this place with bios one night and all the food was immaculate and fast and delicious. I even left my sunglasses on the table and the owners were so kind enough to mail them to me in Palm Springs!!!! Absolutely precious. You don't get people like that anymore. Definitely going back. Please keep this business open, Ridgecrest! read more

Stopped here because overall reviews were good... but don't trust everything you read! We ordered several different items to try, since we're not overly familiar with Thai food. We got spring rolls ($3 for 1, which is half the size of a full spring roll that we are used to ordering, so if you want to share, expect just one bite each), shrimp and scallop with garlic sauce (this was the best thing we ate and it was mediocre, tasted mostly like teriyaki sauce which I don't mind), Tom yum soup with shrimp (which didn't have noodles as shown in the photo, broth tasted like an unwashed lime peel, and shrimp was over cooked..we did not eat this at all), and a chicken teriyaki plate (chicken was over cooked, teriyaki sauce had no flavor, vegetables it came with were not seasoned at all). We will not be coming back here and would have preferred to go to the buffet, at least we might have found something amongst the options. The food was not good and was very expensive; soup, teriyaki plate, 2 spring rolls, and shrimp/scallop plate cost us nearly $60. I don't mind paying high prices for food, but I want to enjoy it; in this case we did not and I regret paying that much. We ordered our food to go but as we waited the inside of the restaurant seemed dirty, and it was cold; felt even colder considering it was 30 something degrees outside already. Service was ok... the lady at the front didn't seem very excited to have a group of 4 there ordering food. I did order a Thai tea which was ok. read more

The buffet lunch is quite worth it although all protein are chicken but $12.95 is ok read more

Great Tom Ka soup!! Pad Thai with chicken was also delicious! I got it to go but will be back to dine in soon!

This place is one of the hidden gems I've discovered on many trips past here. Its changed recently but the food is still so good and authentic and the people are always so nice!! I love Thai food because of places like this! The food is always comforting, wholesome, and has complex combinations if flavor that are so good! I recommend the pad kra pow, you'll absolutely love it if you like Thai Basil! I also had one of the curries and the nuances in the flavor beyond curry flavor were so yummy and not overly sweet. Add some splashes of their spicy Chile sauce if you like a bit more of a kick and some jalapeño vinegar...so so yummy! read more

Decided to try this place out after looking at Yelp reviews. Located in the middle of the desert in a small town, I was blown away by the quality of the food. They have an extensive menu that made it hard to decide. We had the shrimp tempura and gyoza dumplings. Both were perfect as starters. Our entrees were the orange chicken, yellow curry and a Thai omelette. Again all were fantastic. Orange chicken had just the right texture and amount of sauce. The omelette was an egg cooked flat like a crepe stuffed with meat and vegetables. I have not had anything else like this. The yellow curry was mild and flavorful. The owners were friendly and attentive. Wish this was in our home city I would go every week. read more
