Hands down the best Thai food in the Bay Area. Having lived in Concord for most of my life, I've tried my fair share of spots, but this small gem completely blew me away. I've traveled to Thailand and fallen in love with the food and culture there, and eating here instantly warped me right back. We stopped in for lunch and ordered the Thai Basil (Pad Ka-Pow) with ground chicken, Garlic Delight with beef, and the Yellow Curry with chicken. Every dish delivered genuine, authentic flavor cooked to perfection. Beyond the food, the service was wonderful--our waitress's warm, welcoming smile immediately reminded me of the kindness and hospitality I experienced across Thailand. If you've ever dreamed of visiting Thailand, eat here first. You'll get a true glimpse of what makes the culture and cuisine so special. Can't wait to come back! read more

Not being a great fan of Thai food I find this restaurant may change my mind. This is a small restaurant that opened up awhile ago and I must say the food is quite to my liking. I had ordered the lunch menu of pad see ew before but failed to inform them to make it mild, oh boy did I get a shock, way too spicy. I now know to order anything in mild. I did love their pad see ew but order it in mild. This time I wanted to try their red curry with beef, in mild of course, this too was pretty wonderful. I need to mention they make a great rice even though I ordered plain rice and not their sticky rice. I will certainly need ti try their sticky rice the next time with the curry. read more

Homey Thai deserves five starts! I'm a Thai food snob queen. The service is always good here! The owner knows his way around the Bay Area when it comes to food, so it comes as no surprise that his own food is great. Don't sell yourselves short by going to the bigger Thai names in the area where you're paying for the ambience. This food is seriously better than that. It's easy to tell that a lot of care is put into the craft even down to their water being infused with cucumber! So refreshing! Also their Thai tea is so good! There is a sear to the dishes that sometimes gets missed when Thai food is made in a rush. I love this place and have been back many times. It's a must try! read more

Such amazing Thai food. It feels like you're eating in someone's home! The service is fantastic and the food is absolutely excellent.

Was having a crazy craving for drunken noodles last night, so I searched on yelp for an establishment with above a 4.5 rating that served drunken noodles. I placed my order using instacart but picked it up so I wouldn't have to pay the additional $20 delivery price. The location is small and unassuming. The restaurant was packed on a Sunday evening which tells me they are consistent with the food they serve. The gentleman at the counter was super helpful and told me to just call it in next time and save on the insta fees. Service gets a 4.8/5. We brought our food home instead of eating in. I got non-spicy drunken noodles with chicken, my other half got drunken noodles level 3 spicy. Mine was packed full of flavor and I really enjoyed how much basil was in the dish. My only negative reaction was that the noodles seemed overcooked, but we did also travel back home with the hot container and that could have kept cooking. The noodles were a 4.7/5. The spicy green beans were cooked al dente, the bell peppers and cabbage in it really put it o er the top with textures, it was also EXTRA spicy, and would have been amazing with steamed rice, and now that I know this I will always order rice with it. Vegetables get a 4/5. The crispy rolls take the cake as the best item we tried. The rolls are delightfully crispy, and the filling is savory and filling. I rate these a 5/5. Overall, I rate this restaurant a 4.6/5. read more

Good place to get thai food. I always love chicken larb, so that's what I went with today. Good flavor, slightly sweeter than I'm used to, but not distractingly so. Also they include the perfect amount of greens to go along with it, not too much, not too little. But I did ask them to add a little bit of cabbage. I chose a spice rating of 3, because I heard that they are TRUE thai spicy and I didn't want to go with a 5 if i couldn't handle it. A 3 was definitely medium, but I could have bumped it up to a 4, so I'm glad I asked for extra chili powder on the side. Also ordered roti, which was much crispier here than I've had elsewhere, but it was also really good. And, as always, I finished with mangoes and sticky rice which was perfect. read more

My family and I always go for Thai food. Our first time to try this resto. Service was good, staff who served us was a very pleasant guy. The area was small yet clean. For dine in, we ordered (rating on 0-10 scale): Fish Cake: 10/10 Larb Salad with ground meat: 5/10 ground meat was not of good quality and wasn't tender to eat. Flavor of the salad wasn't as great as other lamb salads I've tasted Crispy Trout: 9/10 Rad Na: 8/10 loved how they used the good sauce with actual small beans (Thai restos who actually use this are rare) for the sauce in this dish. Noodles were a bit overcooked. All in all, it's still good. For take out, we ordered soup: Tom Yum: 8/10 We plan to go back if we're in the area. read more

The food was so delicious i'm still thinking about it and so lucky I live close-by because I already know i'm going to be a regular lol But the pad se ew was so delicious not too sweet but I wish it was spicy... it was perfect tbh. The chicken wings were a HIT and I would order them every-time because it's that good, so saucy and crunchy how I like it and it was just an overall 10/10 experience. The restaurant is a lil ma & pa style so I decided to do takeout but I will definitely dine in one of these days! Kap chai lai lai BEST THAT RESTAURANT IN CONCORD HANDS DOWN read more

We had such a great experience at this Thai restaurant! From the moment we sat down, the service was excellent. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We ordered a variety of dishes and everything was delicious. The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced flavorful, not overly sweet, and cooked just right. The boat noodles were rich and comforting with deep, savory broth. The Tom Kha Gai had that perfect creamy coconut flavor with just the right amount of tang and spice. The Lad Na was hearty and satisfying, and the Thai sausages were packed with flavor. To top it all off, the mango sticky rice was the perfect dessert fresh, sweet mango with warm, perfectly textured sticky rice. read more

I thought it was great and it was indeed homey. I wanted to go out for a casual meal and this was perfect. Ambience is nice and the staff was friendly. They forgot the protein in my curry by mistake and immediately replaced it. The only thing I would change is that the curry was slightly watery, but that could just be a style that I'm not familiar with because I don't know a lot about Thai food. We're looking forward to coming back soon. read more

Ambiance: simple, clean mom and pop style restaurant. Service was warm and attentive. Prices were good. Dishes: there are many choices to try... Coconut Prawns- A++ Pad thai-A Eggplant & chicken- B Yellow curry- C TumTom soup- (beautiful presentation) first time, new dish for me. We enjoyed our dinner. Some dishes were great, some needed much more seasoning. Example I ordered two dishes flagged as 'spicy'... very much.. Not spicy. Not bad, just very mild. read more

Disclaimer: this review is rated 2 out of 4 stars. Since this was a to-go order, the star for service was not applicable. Items were pad Thai, pad see ew, papaya salad, chicken satay, and a side of sticky rice and extra peanut sauce. One of the best things about Southeast Asian cuisine is the flavor and spices. Being of SE Asian descent, I'm not stranger to those bold flavors, the crispness of veggies and herbs, the umami component of fish sauce. Unfortunately, none of that was present in any of the dishes. The food tasted cooked and that was about it. Pad Thai had minimal tamarind, tang, salt, and sugar. Pad see ew just tasted like overcooked wide rice noodles - nothing but char flavor. The papaya salad was BLAND - no citrus, no fish sauce, zero flavor. Chicken satay was dry and flavorless, the peanut sauce barely did anything to accentuate the flavor. I couldn't believe that every dish was such a miss. All the positive reviews made me feel like I was making a good decision in selecting takeout from this local spot and I'm all about supporting mom & pop businesses, which makes this review unpleasant to write; however, I certainly hope my experience was simply a result of an "off" night. read more

I've had Homey Thai multiple times, and while I don't claim to be an expert, I've visited Thailand three times and experienced its incredible food firsthand. Finding truly authentic Thai food in the area has often been disappointing--most places do some dishes well but fall short overall. Homey Thai, however, is the exception. It's absolutely outstanding! Every time I visit and try a new dish, it feels as close to authentic Thai flavors as I've had outside of Thailand. From Thai fried rice to red & green curry, Pad Kee Mao, Pad See Ew, and Pad Thai, every dish is incredibly well-balanced in flavor and spice. **My Ratings:** **Thai Fried Rice:** 8/10 **Red & Green Curry:** 8.2/10 **Pad Kee Mao:** 8.3/10 **Pad Thai:** 7.9/10 **Pad See Ew:** 8.1/10 The service is always top-notch. If I ask for extra spices on the side, they go above and beyond. This is officially my go-to Thai spot in the Bay Area! read more

Homey Thai Bistro is our local Thai spot, they offer great tasting food at fair prices. We were super excited when we saw this place open after a long lasting Chinese restaurant closed down during the pandemic. Then owner is super nice, the staff is so friendly and the ambiance is very warm. We tend to order takeout, love their curry dishes and drunken noodles. Haven't ate at the restaurant yet, but the customers are always looking happy. The lunch specials are amazing, my wife and I like to order them during a work weekday as a treat. Their green curry is our favorite, we love the papaya salad and Thai sausage as well. Come visit Homey Thai if you're near the Monument corridor in Concord, the food and service is top notch. Try one of their curry dishes, and get some Thai chilies in fish sauce if you like extra spice. Support our local Thai restaurant! read more

After a long day of shopping in Concord, we decided to stop by to get some take out. There's plenty of parking outside this small mom and pop restaurant. We were greeted by a friendly waiter. They have a extensive menu. We ordered the Fish Cakes, Chicken Satay, Pad Thai, Pineapple Fried Rice, Pan Woon Sen, BBQ Pork, Pork With Mixed Veggies. The waiter told us that it will be a 15 to 20 minutes wait. We waited for about 40 minutes for our order. The order of fish cakes came with four fish cakes. The menu stated order comes with eight pieces, which was misleading. They were cut in half and I guess that's what they considered eight pieces. The peanut sauce went well with the Chicken Satay. The Bbq Pork was tender and flavorful. The sauce for the Pad Thai was pretty good, which we can taste the tamarind in it. The Pineapple Fried Rice, Pad Woon Sen, and the Pork with Mixed Veggies were ok. There weren't anything special about these entrees. The prices are fairly reasonable and they're generous with the portions. We'll be back to dine in when we're in this area. read more

It's not often that you have such a great experience via DoorDash that you're inspired to head to the yelp page to leave a review, but here we are. I dashed, it arrived HOT. Looking forward to dining in sometime. Now to the food though; I was craving khao mun gai. It's a comfort food and I haven't found anything near what I can get in Thai town, until now. Khao mun gai is essentially boiled chicken over garlic rice with broth and a tamarind sauce. It's so simple but so flavorful and satisfying! This is a dish I couldn't stop eating until it was gone. And I'm saving the rest of the broth to eat over rice tomorrow! We also got the beef pad se ewe which is a go to for us anywhere and this was probably the best version I've ever had. I am so happy to have found this restaurant where I can get authentic Thai food that tastes like home. read more

Yummy and definitely one of the best Thai Kitchens in Concord. Fairly attentive from what the customers and my taste buds can claim. Super friendly people who own it and five star plus!!! The ambiance isn't over the top but the place was buzzing with good energy and it was clean and comfortable. From the spring rolls to the freshly made larb salad and the eggplant... all to titillate your tastebuds for a return visit. Going daily is a bit obsessive but it's so darn good! read more

Solid Thai food. The tom yum soup wasn't great, but the pad thai (with tofu) and the fish cakes and the BBQ pork fried rice were all quite tasty. They have a pretty big menu and I'm excited to try more of it! read more

I never knew this place existed in Concord, area off of Monument Boulevard. We usually eat in the Concord, area but never been to this place. I would consider it a hole in the wall (which makes it even better), when we got there it was empty with only having two customers. We ordered the angel chicken, wings, chicken pot Thai and another noodle dish. Everything came out really really hot, which was amazing and they provided us with four different types of hot sauce. The food was really good. We will definitely come back. They had a lot of carry out orders, which was nice to see. Customer service is also top notch. read more

Based on good reviews we went when visiting concord. It is on the side if small strip center with limited parking. We were intriguedby the menu having tom yum fried rice, so we ordered tom kha soup instead of tom yum as we want to try tom yum fried rice. Soup was ok, tom yum fried rice did not have anything to do with tom yum, worst it was not even a good fried rice. Drunken noodle was ok. Mango that came with the sticky rice was one of the worst we had. May be there meat dishes are better? But any how we will not be going again. read more

We lived in Bangkok and Lopburi for 4 years and miss authentic Thai food. I am thankful that when i have a craving, I can come here and relive those wonderful years. My favorite dish here is the Tom Yum noodle soup which has a perfect sour and salty combination and the Tom Yum fried rice. The soup is especially great to have on a cold winter day!

Food 4/5 Service 3/5 Ambiance -casual This restaurant is best described as Thai food -have it your way. Almost the entire meal can be customized from the type of protein, type of rice and spice level 0-5. Making one feel like you can dine your way. The friendly owners make you feel like home. The restaurant is located in an older strip mall and is in the front with ample parking. I ordered the lunch special of Thai green curry with chicken. At this restaurant all entrees can be ordered either with vegetables, tofu or meat or seafood if your choice. My dish was seasoned perfectly with enough spice to have a little kick and was told it was 0, I like spice and will try a 1 on my next visit. The quality is fresh just cooked vegetables eggplant, bamboo shoot and bell pepper. It was delicious! For an additional charge brown rice, sticky or garlic rice can be substituted. I like the options to order any entree with whatever protein you prefer. Although my order was basic it was prepared well. I'm an to come back and try more of the offerings. This neighborhood spot is worth supporting. Good service, attentive but not obtrusive. read more

This place has good vibes! I just dug the energy as soon as I picked up my food, and the lady that helped me (to go order) was just chill and very nice. Anyway, I got the pad thai, and I've had enough of the good stuff to be picky! This was very very good! I only wish there was more bean sprouts, but the flavor, proteins (shrimp and chicken), and balance of the sauce was excellent. It was delicious! I will be back! read more

Food- ordered -shrimp blanket- appetizer. Seemed like long shrimp stretched out and wrapped in a won ton skin and deep fried. Came with a delicious sauce. Their description: Shrimp Blanket- Deep Fried Ground Fish Mixed With Red Curry Paste And Kaffir Lime Leaves Served With Sweet Cucumber Sauce -Yum Woon Sen- "Goong Op Woon Sen" is the closest thing I can find to it: Steamed fresh prawns in ginger, glass noodles and celery. -Basil Thai Style (Pad Ka Pow)- hold the chuckles on the Ka Pow thing. Thai style Pad Kapow with choice of ground meat, chinese broccoli and basil. Served over jasmine rice. Ordered 3*** spicy, so middle of the road with added fried egg. Service- seemed like a family affair. They all came out and served as well as made certain we were happy with our meals. Kept my water full and I was pounding that stuff down. Ambiance- get cozy. Many tables in the one dining room with plenty of room to maneuver in between them. Got noisy as more folks sat down to eat but never too too loud. Nice windows (full length of the wall it seemed) so it felt bigger than it actually was I'd imagine. Will want to try a noodle soup next time. And I hope that the next time will be soon! Let's face it: tons of places try to do Thai. This one probably does it better than any of the ones you've been trying... read more

I just moved to the area and am on the hunt to find my go to Thai place. My friend and I have come here a couple of times, and I'm a fan! Things we've tried: *Chicken wings - good *Khao Mun Gai Tod (crispy chicken over rice) - this was delicious! *Green curry with chicken - this was delicious and the right balance of flavor and spice *Drunken noodle - we got this the first time we went, and neither of us loved the flavors (that's a person flavor profile issue, not a restaurant issue) *Pad see ew with beef - yummy and hit the spot! *Tom Yum Fried rice - my friend loved the flavors of this! The service is quick and the folks working here are very welcoming and nice! Will definitely be back! read more

I love this place. I just went for the first time with a group of friends. We ordered a lot of different dishes and they were all delicious. We each picked our favorite dish and we all pretty much chose a different dish. Our waiter was amazing. I wish I remembered his name. He was so attentive and genuinely cared about our dining experience. He made sure we got the spiciness levels we wanted. This place feels like a true mom and pop shop. I forgot to mention in my original review that they have the best water ever. It's infused with what I think is cucumber and lime (maybe something else). It's delicious. read more
