    Tamarind Wings
    Melissa J.

    Great service and the food was flavorful and delicious. Our favorite dishes were the Tamarind Wings & the Daily Special Braised Beef w/Pepper which was served on a sizzling skillet and was delightfully tender. Will definitely visit again and am hoping to leave room next time for the fried banana and ice cream dessert.

    Shrimp fresh rolls
    Judy H.

    Came in on a Tuesday around 6:20pm. This is a little cozy looking restaurant. Definitely looks family run. Our server was really nice and friendly. We ordered a cup of the tom ? ? (Coconut soup), fresh roll with shrimp and drunken noodles. There was a lot of to go traffic today. Tom kaw coconut soup was filled with fresh mushrooms and lots of chicken. The broth tasted nice and coconut/lemony (my first experience with this soup but it had great flavor) Fresh rolls with shrimp were stuffed with shrimp and the peanut sauce was delicious. The drunken noodle was also filled with chicken broccoli cabbage and carrots. Ordered it medium Thai spicy and it was delicious!! A great find tucked inside a shopping center. Would definitely like to return and try the papaya salad.

    Potstickers
    Kijana Q.

    My partner and I ventured out into the pouring rain yesterday on the search for more delicious Thai food in my area. We arrived approx 15 minutes before the store opened but they were kind enough to let us in to retreat from the torrential downpour, to stay dry and warm. That kind of service goes above and beyond. The restaurant was small, clean, and smelled amazing, and definitely a 5/5. The server was quick and paid great attention to detail and our requests 5/5 for service. The potstickers was delicious, filled with chicken and fresh green onions, which I really really enjoyed 5/5. My partner ordered Drunken noodles with fried tofu. The dish itself tastes good, the tofu cooked almost perfect, and the extra cabbage and no egg request was met, and the build up of spice level was good. The noodles were overcooked and kept falling apart when trying to fork it, and that was a bit of a let down. Drunken noodles get a 4.2 out of 5 because the noodles were overcooked. The Pad See Ew was good, but adding a dash of soy sauce was needed to really bring all of the flavors together. It had a bunch of veggies, cooked to al dente perfection, but the noodles were also overcooked and fell apart while trying to get the fork to my mouth, I give the this dish a 4.2 out of 5. Overall, I rate this restaurant a 4.6 out of 5 for all reasons mentioned above.

    I STILL highly recommend this place! TEN years later, and Palm Thai Bistro is still my top restaurant for Thai food. Restaurant is clean. Service is good. Food is EXCEPTIONAL - authentic and flavorful. I have many favorites - Crab Fried Rice, Crispy Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Satay, Tamarind Wings, Larb Salad, Pumpkin Curry, Grilled Pork, Grilled Chicken, Satay Spicy Catfish, mango sticky rice, and all the noodle dishes. You can order online for easy pickup or delivery. Definitely an excellent go-to!

    Pad See Ew w beef
    Nelson C.

    Stopped in for a To-Go order. Small restaurant located next to a sushi restaurant and anytime fitness. The place is very clean with table seating along the walls. Was greeted immediately and told them I was ordering To-go. Gave me a few minutes to look over the menu. Settled on the Pad See Ew w beef (+ $2.00). Was told a 10 minute wait, but it was much quicker. The plate was tasty...almost like Chinese chow fun w plenty of beef.

    Tom Kah soup LARGE for $15, A soup that is smaller than a can of Pepsi and about 1/2 the size of a iPhone.

    We have been coming to Palm Thai for years and hate to leave this review, but Tonight we ordered the Tom Kah soup LARGE for $15, this is what they now are offering. A soup that is smaller than a can of Pepsi and about 1/2 the size of a iPhone. I even questioned the server and said we ordered a LARGE and she confirmed this was correct. Unbelievable can't believe we just paid $15 for this soup what happened here????!!! So sad!

    Citrus Chicken Salad
    Clarence A.

    When in the area sampled this spot with the fam, glad I was able to sample all their offerings, let me breakdown everything we sampled and how it all faired Crispy Fried Chicken Fried Rice - flavorful and perfect for sucking up all the sauces on all the other dishes we sampled Citrus Chicken Salad - very flavorful, good for appetizer also as a palette cleanser for all the other dishes Sauteed Thai Basil with ground chicken - seasoned well, more then a scoop of this and scoop of fried rice perfect match, sample this Sauteed Spicy Catfish - catfish deep fried, piping hot with that sauce perfect again with scoop of fried rice Thai Ice tea - both kids got ordered this, both finished, lets just say you know it sweet when your lips get stuck together after drinking Hot Green tea - if you don't want cold drink this is perfect to settle your stomach after your meal and to calm you down, piping hot perfect after a large meal food **** price $$ service ***** helpful, polite, very responsive ambiance **** clean, bright inside, mellow vibe

    This is definitely a Go-To! It's now established and well known, so you're not gambling on taste or cleanliness. We recently ordered a giant take out order for some new friends. They loved it and probably will be back! Our favorites are Basil sliced chicken, Thai chili chicken, drunken noodles, pumpkin curry and satay. This time we had the potstickers and they were awesome- the dough was crispy yet chewy. You can choose how spicy you want your dishes. The restaurant isn't big, but not over crowded. We usually get take out. The staff is always kind. Check it out!

    In Cordelia, near 880 and 80, I came here following the great recommendations. I was seated promptly at a small table. Food comes out faster than you can write a Yelp review! Crispy vegetable rolls Deep fried spring rolls, cabbage, green bean, carrot, mushroom, onion, vermicelli, sesame and sweet chili sauce. I thought the rolls were decidedly mushy and pasty on the inside. Without the sauce, it's really hard to eat. Tom Yn Goong soup Classic spicy sour soup with shrimp, lemongrass, mushroom, tomato, and Kathir lime leaves. Delicious and savory tomato, broth, tangy , and plump shrimp. Even on a warm day, a satisfying dish. Crispy chicken fried rice Fried rice with sliced cutlet of breast. Not bad and yet not anything special or unique about it either. I mean it filled my tummy but I'm not missing it. Overall more disappointment than not. That's all...

    Som Tum (Papaya Salad)*

    Came here on a Saturday evening with my husband as we were staying nearby for an event. The restaurant is small and charming, and the service fast and friendly. It was not too crowded for a Saturday night, so we were seated quickly ordered a papaya salad with shrimp and drunken noodles. I was pleased that they were not afraid to use fish sauce and the flavors were bold and tasty. We also ordered a pineapple fried rice to go for our daughter. She enjoyed it! Mind you, she is a toddler and usually picky with her food, this was great.

    One of the best Thai food places in the Bay Area. Food is always delicious and service is always polite.

    Crispy Prawn Rolls
    Sandy L.

    Yum! You'd never expect to find such good Thai food in the area by Safeway and TJ Maxx. Plenty of open parking since it's in the vents of a large shopping plaza. Walking in it felt a little warm. But we were greeted, orders were taken quickly, the food came out quickly, and it was good. We ordered the shrimp rolls, yellow curry, and pad see ew. For drinks we both got Thai iced tea. The drink was especially good. Usually Thai ice tea can be overwhelmingly sweet. This wasn't. It was rich in flavor. The food was also delicious. Generous amounts of protein. Especially happy with the shrimp rolls. These came out freshly fried and still hot and crispy! Check the menu on the wall. They have some items that aren't listed on the regular menu. For example they have the coloring changing butterfly pea tea! It's a more casual dining spot but we were very happy with our choice and left with food for later. I'd come back if we were in the area.

    This Thai spot is on the other side of costco by TJ mAxx. So go get some shopping done, grab some groceries and check this spot out. The interior is nice a quiant. Plenty of seating, food came out quick. We ordered to go. Had the drunken noodles, side of rice, and beef eggplant curry. The noodles were amazing. Nice and hot. The eggplant(mix with rice) was super flavorful, the broth is silky. Top it off with a thai tea and a Thai coffee

    Second time here for Thai food. This time around we ordered and picked up. We were looking for…read moresomething different for dinner and decided on Thai food. I drove a bit (from Vacaville) and glad I did. They are always so nice and greet all their customers. Even the ones that pick up. We ordered their fried chicken dish and they waited to finish it off so it wouldn't be soggy when we were ready to eat. That was thoughtful of them! Everything else was on hit - Pad Thai - combination: Piping hot and ready to be devoured. Was portioned to feed 2 people (but feed 3), even amounts of shrimp, chicken and sprinkled peanuts and tofu to round out the proteins. Bangkok Chicken Wings: Nicely seasoned and fried crispy. I loved that they waited to fry to service when we got there. It's the little things #score This is our go to Thai restaurant because the food is extremely flavorful and the service is top notch!

    Took my parents out for lunch on a weekday because my dad enjoys Thai food. They hadn't been here…read morebefore, but I've been enough times to know it's a solid choice. We walked in and there were a few people already enjoying lunch, but plenty of open seating. We were seated right away and service got going quickly. Always a good sign. There are lunch specials, but we went à la carte because I believe if you're going out to eat, you might as well order what you actually want. We ordered seafood tom kha, chicken & shrimp pad Thai, basil beef, spicy catfish, pla pad phed (trout), and steamed rice -- all requested not spicy because my parents like flavor, not a near-death experience. The seafood tom kha was a win. Dad was impressed with the variety of seafood -- shrimp, scallops, mussels, calamari, and catfish. He kept commenting on how flavorful the broth was, which in dad language is basically a Michelin star. The basil beef was new for my parents and they both loved it. The sauce had great flavor and paired perfectly with the rice. The pad Thai was good. Solid. Dependable. Not the kind that makes you dramatically pause mid-bite and rethink your life choices, but definitely tasty. Now the spicy catfish is what I personally come here for. It's fried just right -- not overly breaded, still flaky and tender inside. The sauce is always on point and full of flavor. This dish alone keeps me coming back. The pla pad phed (trout) unfortunately didn't land the same way. Because it's served filleted, it's easy to overcook, and sadly this one was. The sauce itself was great, but the fish was a bit too done. Overall, this place has been a favorite of mine for a while, and it survived the ultimate test: my parents enjoyed it too. I'll definitely keep coming back for the spicy catfish, basil beef, and their reliable pad Thai. And the service? Always friendly and attentive -- which honestly makes the experience even better.
