    Wok fried rice
    Shawn M.

    First time trying this place out and it did not disappoint. Everything I ordered was delicious and had me wanting more. Me and my sister ended up finishing everything and let's just say that we are both going to come back and try more items on the menu. Definitely a great place to eat in town, and the place is filled with customers, with good reason. Can't believe I didn't find this spot sooner. Ambiance is nice and the staff was great. I'll be back

    Salad

    First time here and had a great experience overall. They offer a variety of classic Thai dishes as well as sushi (rolls and sashimi) and pho! My party each ordered an entree from the lunch special menu and we all shared the lettuce wraps and chicken pad Thai. Service was great, and the food was delicious. Lunch specials came with a salad, choice of rice (steamed, brown or fried) and fried wontons. I chose the yellow chicken curry and requested it to be spicy, and it had the perfect amount of heat. The pad Thai was different than what I'm normally used to, in which it had thinner noodles - which soaked up the sauce and wasn't dry at all...mmm so good! Will definitely be back to try their other menu items. In addition to lunch specials (until 3pm daily) they have happy hour and drink specials too!

    I picked up food to go for my wife. The service was quite friendly and helpful and the food was ready when I arrived. The inside was larger than expected with unique decor. There is also plenty of seating outside. My wife said the food was good but a little expensive.

    To go order: lunch special eggplant and tofu

    I work close to Gra Pow. Looks great on the outside and in. Plenty of parking and places to sit. I called in my order, person who took my order was pleasant. I got lunch special which they had even on weekends before 3pm. I just didn't expect the lunch special to be $18. What I got for the lunch special was ok. My favorite was the wonton. It was fried perfectly. It was light and airy. I also got the eggplant and tofu with fried rice. The dish was just ok. I would've liked more eggplant.

    Thursday, September 11, 2025: I had lunch here with a very dear friend to celebrate her birthday. We both served in the Air Force & have known each other for close to 30 years. This was our favorite hang out when I used to be in the Reserves then when I became a civil servant. My contracting office at March ARB had several gatherings here. Our friendly server James provided superb customer service by checking on us frequently. We ordered from the Lunch Special Menu where our entrees were $16.50 each - so totally worth it! I chose the Chicken Pad See Aew with no heat & my friend opted for the Chicken Pad Thai with mid-heat. The food came out hot, fresh, and quickly. Our dishes came out in generous portions & were absolutely scrumptious! James thoughtfully & surprisingly presented my friend with a complimentary dessert, which I believe was a matcha ice cream with whipped cream. We all sang Happy Birthday. She thoroughly enjoyed it! Additionally, the mango sticky rice had been ordered. I was stuffed but had to have a little taste. It's so good as before! This eatery always delivers with a winning combination. The food, ambiance, customer service, and cleanliness is top notch & perfect for small & large gatherings. They also have an outdoor patio. We thank James for making this a memorable & enjoyable experience. We both came away happy & exceedingly satisfied. Although it's far for me, I will make the extra trip.

    It's always a GREAT experience. Food is great and the service is excellent. One of my favorite spots for Thai food and sushi.

    Yellow curry with fried rice
    Megan L.

    Gra Pow completely caught me by surprise with how good it was! Normally, I like to try a couple of dishes or visit a few times before leaving a review, but I'm still thinking about the dishes I ordered at my first visit. *Yellow Curry with Chicken: This really took me by surprise! While most yellow curries tend to taste pretty similar no matter where you go, the curry here had so much more depth in both flavor and presentation. It was incredibly delicious, packed with veggies and chicken, and had a perfect, slightly thicker texture. The flavor profile really stood out to me; I haven't tasted a yellow curry quite like this before. *Steamed Shumai: Though smaller than I expected, these were really tasty! I liked pairing them with the sauce on the side and found it a simple but nice appetizer. Parking is ample, and the interior is unlike any Thai restaurant I've been to. There's a full bar and TVs, and it feels very integrated into the Orangecrest community, which was such a nice vibe to experience. Even though the menu has some items that aren't traditionally Thai, everything I ordered was delicious. It was also busy for a weekday night, which is always a good sign of great food and great people. Service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and overall, while the prices make this more of a special-occasion spot for me, I can't wait to come back.

    Mongolian Beef
    Susan J.

    Had a Thai food craving. Our banker suggested Gra Pow. Two areas to sit: restaurant or the bar area. My party of 3 chose the bar are so we could watch a baseball game on the TV. Both areas were clean and typical for restaurant/bar. Both areas dimly lit. We were greeted at entry and immediately approached by our server Margie. Other employees checked on us and delivered our food; all were nice and helpful. Chicken wings were well flavored. Pad See Ew was good as was the Mongolian Beef, and Pad Kra Pao with beef. Mango Stickey Rice was also good. Will definitely return.

    Mongolian beef and 8 Warriors
    Traci C.

    They have Thai food, but also sushi, protein bowls, soups, pho, noodles and other Asian Chinese type food, like cashew chicken. I had chicken yellow curry with no spice. It was really tasty, and filling with the rice that comes with it. They have really good happy hour drinks and appetizers from 3-6pm. My friend got a huge pour of wine for $5.00. Others at my table got the 8 Warriors dish, and the Mongolian beef. That was good, but very salty. Server was very nice, but not super attentive, and we saw her less and less as the place got busier. I would go back. The bar area had a nice ambiance and never got as busy as the restaurant. They have outside seating too, but its picnic tables, so less comfortable.

    Chow Mein Noodle and Garlic Noodle

    This is my go to Thai place whenever I'm in riverside. I got the chow mein as well as the garlic noodles with a Thai tea. The food and service were great. James was our waiter he was very kind

    Good spot to get over your Thai craving. The service is good and the aesthetics of the restaurant is nice and clean. There is no weird smells. Pad gra pow is my favorite option along with the tom yum. I would recommend to come back.

    Pad Thai
    Jeremy S.

    The wife and I love Thai food and moved to this part of town recently so I've been wanting to try this place for a while. Overall the food is solid but left a bit to be desired. The quality of the dishes were good, and the portions were quite generous, but as someone who likes Thai, I found the spices in the dishes to be lacking. I realize it's Riverside, so the seasoning is probably catered to a different demographic but when I think of Thai food, there has to be spice! The dishes here were more sweet and had too much sauce in my opinion. It's not a bad restaurant, but it left me looking for more. You can tell that everything is made well but if you're looking for authentic Thai flavors and spices, you probably won't find it here. The service was friendly and helpful, although it did take some time for us to get our check at the end. The lunch special is a pretty solid deal as well since you get a salad and some side dishes along with your entree.

Overall I would recommend trying, you might meet some cool people. That was honestly the highlight of my experience. The sushi was good too. I would try them again. I would say 3.8/5 stars

It's a…read moresmall Thai and Japanese spot with cozy indoor seating, usually quiet, and just a comfortable place to sit down and eat without any fuss. We almost always order the pad Thai, and I'm normally the volcanic ramen guy, but since it was Valentine's Day, I went with the falling ramen instead. Still full of flavor, just without the spice level trying to prove a point. We actually showed up about an hour before our reservation, which was already early for Valentine's dinner. The moment I told Lily the reservation was under Jacqueline, she lit up and said, "Oh, she's my favorite," and sat us right away. That's the kind of place this is. Service over the past year can be quick or a little slower depending on the night, but we never feel rushed, and that relaxed pace is part of why we like it. The food is consistently fresh and tasty, and they do a great job with allergy-friendly options. There's a gluten-free menu, and peanuts only show up if you request them.

From the moment we walked in, something felt off, and it quickly became clear the restaurant was significantly understaffed. We later learned the same person was acting as the cook, cashier, and server. It took over an hour for any food to begin coming out to our table, and even after nearly two hours, meals were still trickling out. I never received my food at all. What made this even more frustrating was that there was no clear way to communicate with staff. There was no cashier available, and we weren't able to let anyone know we wanted to cancel the order given how long it had been. My spouse ended up paying for a meal I never received. After waiting that long, I eventually had to leave without eating dinner at all. I came home and had a protein shake instead, which is not how anyone expects their night to go after going out to eat. To be fair, others in our party who did receive their food said it tasted very good, which makes this even more disappointing. I understand that this may have been an off night, but the lack of communication, excessive wait, and inability to resolve the issue made for a really poor experience. Unfortunately, I won't be returning.

That's reflected in the constricted lobby that isn't suitable for dining in, despite a couple tables and chairs that remain unused by the hot line display. Additionally, the limited space effectively cuts the daily selection in half compared with the much restaurant on La Sierra. Sun faded illustrations of menu items on the west-facing wall are still legible, and a few customers in the crowded entryway were ordering made-to-order noodles and entrées. I, however, just wanted a standard two-item combination of orange chicken and jalapeño chicken with fried rice. Once my turn came it went quick and smooth. Fortunately, there are a few outside tables distributed for the customers of this and adjacent restaurants. I found the orange chicken to be crispy and dry. It was towards the end of the night, but still. A bit disappointed and I didn't eat it all. Their take on jalapeño chicken is actually pretty good. Spicy and a good sauce, which the rice soaked up. Summary: The price was fair for the quantity, but I think the limited space and corresponding reduced selection keeps interesting menu choices offered elsewhere to maybe one or two items, of which one display, didn't appeal. Friendly cashier though, but if they have a prime time, it's probably mid afternoon.

The food was really good and consistent with what you'd expect from a solid Yoshinoya location. But what really moved me to write this review wasn't just the food -- it was the staff and how they handled an extremely busy situation. As I was walking in, the drive-thru line was wrapped around the building. The customer in front of me ordered over 20+ plates of food, which clearly backed up the kitchen. Despite that, the staff remained friendly, calm, and professional. You could see the stress in their eyes, but they handled it with grace. The employee at the register was very transparent, kindly explaining that the order would take a while. When it was my turn, she told me the same thing, and I let her know I understood -- because it was obvious they were doing an amazing job under pressure. What really impressed me was overhearing the teamwork in the kitchen. One of the ladies in the back told a line worker to go take their break while she caught up on orders. Everyone seemed to be working in sync, with a rhythm and sense of teamwork that you honestly don't see very often in fast food. It was incredibly well executed. Even with all the chaos, they didn't sacrifice a single ounce of customer service. They catered to every customer, communicated clearly about wait times, and kept a positive attitude throughout. I got my food, it was great, and by the time I finished eating, the drive-thru was still packed -- yet everyone in the dining room looked satisfied and was enjoying their meals.
