Let me give some insight: the food is pretty solid and the service needs some work. I really enjoyed the green coconut milk curry over rice, although I wish the portions were bigger. The waiter/cook seemed to be visibly annoyed anytime he was asked follow up questions or clarification pertaining to the food. However, I understand it could be due to the restaurant being short staffed, so I empathize. I would recommend some light dusting, mopping, and additional cleaning to the restaurant as well. Mount Shasta has a plethora of burger and new American options, to no surprise, which have no dishes including vegetables. I see why the population tends to be on the heavy side. Ultimately, if you are in the mood for quality food and something that doesn't have 1,000+ calories per plate, Phuket Thai Cafe is the place to go. read more

Was on a road trip, and stopped by for lunch. Service was a bit slow. Inside is spacious. Food is okay. Don't claim to be a Thai restaurant when you're not even familiar with actual Thai cuisine. I asked a question about the menu and the server wanted to correct me with wrong informations. Raised his voice and made it seem like what I'm saying is crazy. Like sorry you're not familiar with authentic Thai cuisine read more

Delicious food in a very casual environment. Things were looking pretty calm when we arrived, but quickly became packed with several parties waiting for tables! read more

We were craving Asian food and found this place with great reviews--so we stopped by for dinner after a long drive from San Francisco. The customer service was excellent, and to our pleasant surprise, the food was authentically Thai. The Tom Yum was flavorful and well-prepared with plenty of cilantro root, galangal, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaves--this aromatic blend truly brought the dish to life. However, it was a bit on the salty side for our taste. The curry noodles also leaned too salty, while the beef Thai salad was just okay--not particularly memorable. On the bright side, the fried pomfret was nicely done--crispy and satisfying. The pineapple fried rice, unfortunately, was soggy; it would've been better with a drier, fluffier texture. Overall, finding decent and authentic Thai food around Mt. Shasta isn't easy, so this place was a nice discovery. It's a quiet, cozy spot where you can enjoy a meal and chat with family without the noise and rush. read more

The food was terrible! The eggplant was so salty and its flavor just tasted like soy sauce. The chicken was not tender at all. The owner was rude, got an attitude and didn't take feedback well. The service was horrible - that evening we had to wait for more than one hour to get our takeout food. Stay away from this one! read more

Nice thai place with lots of vegan dishes. We ordered green curry, red curry, panang curry, rice paper rolls, basil fried rice Green curry, panang & basil fried rice were really good, Tofu was fresh, firm. Portion size was good & prices were reasonable. Shasta has less veggie/vegan place and this was definitely a good spot. Red curry was not that great. Seemed like indian curry. It was a clean , spacious place. We were a party of 5 & they charged us 15% gratuity. read more

This place is an absolute disgrace to "authentic Thai food", because I had the absolute worst experience here. Parking is easy, but the restaurant seems a little oudated in terms of decor. Then again, Mount Shasta has very limited food selections. I ordered a Pad Thai and a Curry Noodle, and both were absolutely disgusting. The funny thing is, the first time I came here during my stay, they were apparently too busy to serve us, with an estimated 1 hour wait time for food since their kitchen was so busy. The dishes come one at a time, and my pad thai would've been cold if I didn't start eating and waited for other dishes to arrive. For starters, the Pad Thai was served with raw bean sprouts. What is this, pho?? It was disgusting to be munching on raw bean sprouts, and every other Thai place I've been to had cooked bean sprouts. The flavor is mediocre at best, but if I wasn't starving on the brink of death, I would not have touched another bite of it. The Curry Noodle was so bad to the point where my girlfriend (a lover of Thai food) did not even eat over half the bowl. The broth was not authentic; it was watery and salty. I ordered a few other dishes I couldn't recall since I had a part of 4, but no one finished their food, even though we were all Thai food fans. I'm not sure what these reviewers are giving at 5 stars, but this place was an absolute let down. The only redeeming quality is their Thai Tea, which cannot be messed up. Their prices are too expensive for the quality of food and service, and I left hungry and decided to sleep on a half empty stomach. I get that LA and the Bay's Thai food can't compare to smaller cities, but in this case, just don't get Thai food. If you're hungry after a day hiking in the area, do not come to this place. There are so many better restaurants in this small town. read more

We're on a road trip and decided to stop by and try this place. The food is okay, but the service was extremely slow! Looks like only one person does all the work(cooking, serving and dishwasher etc..) we waited 1:40 minutes for our food.... read more

Super duper excruciatingly slow service but great food. Glad for an entire vegan menu ! Got the green curry with tofu and veggies - comes with jasmine rice. Well flavored, they seem to use a basil paste vs traditional green curry paste with shrimp etc. No complaints, we did want it vegan. Nice portion and came piping hot. read more

Super mid Thai spot. Pad Thai was disappointing and the fried rice were but the soups are good! TBH all the food restaurants kinda suck in Mt Shasta so it's expected. I'm giving four stars only cause of the big vegan menu. That's really cool but the owner is kinda weird(rude) idk if it's the culture or what's up with that. I also enjoyed the ambiance in contrast of everyone else Lolol. But yeah it's OK. 3 stars really considering all but vegan menu made it a 4. If I could do 3.5 I would read more

This review is specifically for those who care about amazing Thai food. This lovely little cafe boasts some of the most delicious dishes! The inside of this cafe isn't the prettiest: they could use a mural or wallpaper or even a new paint color? But it says "cafe" not "fine dining" so that shouldn't matter too much. My partner and I arrived for lunch and shared the fried rice (combination) and the stuffed wings. Oh my gosh: those stuffed wings were melt in your mouth fried crispiness and the dipping sauce was honeyed delight. We also tried a Thai iced tea: it was wonderful (just on the sweet side). The man who served us was very kind, welcoming and provided excellent service. He was busy but he was also watchful and ready to help on the drop of a dime. It was a lovely experience. We will definitely be back! read more

Relatively affordable Thai food with decent portions in central Shasta. Great to eat after a day of hiking. Got the pad Thai, panang curry, and papaya salad. All were average but hit the spot. Service though was amazing and I'm assuming the owner of the place who took out to go orders was hustling and very attentive to customers. The inside was big with plenty of seating and open lighting. read more

I was craving some Thai food and in the area at a local waterfall so I thought I would stop in and give it a try I wish I could give a positive review for this restaurant however I cannot..!!!! When we entered, we were asked to take our own menus and find a seat. The air felt damp and the tables and seats were dirty and ripped with tape as repairs Our three entrées came out at completely different times and I'd say the quality was cafeteria at best. At worst, some of the food items tasted strange and unlike any Thai food I had in the past We had Drunken Noodle- very strange texture to the noodles and an offputting taste in the sauce Pineapple Rice- rice was definitely not cooked that day. It was difficult to chew and harsh when swallowed. Shrimp Curry- probably the better of the three dishes however, the tail on frozen shrimp were overcooked and tasteless I chose not to eat these. These are all items I eat frequently from Thai restaurants and I would say I'm very familiar with the taste texture and appearance they should have with an understanding of possible variances in ingredients and presentations at different restaurants. For $60 with tip out the door, my food regret was high I spent the ride home searching yelp for another restaurant to try in Mount Shasta during my next visit read more

Mediocre. Thai food is one of my favorite cuisines so I was excited that there was a Thai restaurant while on a family vacation. The outside has plenty of parking and we were kindly greeted by the gentleman working there. He offered us a vegan menu or a regular menu which is nice they have options. We ordered: Fried tofu that came with a dipping sauce. Very bland. Tom Yum soup: I actually liked it but my husband said it was a weird sour taste. Drunken noodles with tofu: lacked flavor and super oily. Hardly any noodles and laying on a bed of lettuce? Basil chicken: just standard. Nothing great. Prices were decent and more reasonable than Bay Area prices. Bathroom was gross...not the cleanest. Would we return? Nope. Not that great unfortunately. read more

An early dinner alone here. I was impressed that they have a vegan menu. I ordered some fried tofu and an eggplant stir fry dish. Both were good. There was no choice of rice, it was white. Service was fine. There were very few customers present. The restaurant décor and surfaces could use a refresh. read more

Ab.soul.utly LOVE this divine Thai spot! The food is fresh and delicious. The people are so kind here. Plenty of parking and food comes out rather quickly. Such a delight. Highly recommend if in the area, especially to my fellow vegans! Plenty of Vegan options. read more

Went for lunchtime the other day Very good and will go back Some of the dishes have a 1-10 choice for how hot you'd like your meal read more

4 star food. But it smelled like room cleaner and incense and deodorant in the dining area when we walked in. We got the food to go because it smelled so much in the dining room. The food was good though. It was probably just because they were close to closing that the smell was strong. read more

We were happy to find this place while nearby. It's cool that they have 2 separate menus clearly labelled "Vegan" and "Non-vegan". The vegan menu has 32 items to choose from! We ordered 18V Tom kha w/ veg, 22V yellow curry w/ veg & tofu, 41V sautéed mixed veg in bean sauce, and 55V basil fried rice. I've had many Tom kha's over the years and this one was different - a lot darker in color and more tomatoey. Typically Tom kha is a white/beige broth or a hint of light orange color from chili oil. This soup had also stronger flavours. Very flavorful and fragrant. It was good, just different. But also slightly too salty - added more water & coconut milk when we got back home. The yellow curry was yummy and my husband really enjoyed it. The sautéed mixed veg in bean sauce - I thought it might be in a thicker sauce or something. I asked what the bean sauce was like but the gentleman taking orders wasn't sure. Anyway, it turned out that it was sautéed veg in a thin soy sauce basically. Made me wish I chose something different. We ordered the basil fried rice after seeing another review saying it was their favorite dish. It was good and definitely fragrant. But after several more bites I really noticed it was really lacking seasoning and tasted bland real quick. Would be great accompanying the curry though since the curry is more flavorful. Overall, being in a town with a population of 3400 this place was okay. It's fine that the inside looks super dated but it's in desperate need of a deep cleaning...I could see years of dirty fingers touching light switches & door handles built up which would wipe clean with a sponge, pressure and water/vinegar or bleach/water. The floors need to be scrubbed and mopped, especially near the edges/walls. I noticed dust build up on many surfaces such as a little statue at the end of their bar that was sitting on a box wrapped in pink wrapping paper. The top of the pink box was super dusty and the bottom edges of the box are nearly black from dirt buildup over the years I'm guessing. From a distance/at a glance it's not that bad but this place just really needs some TLC. Because of the reviews I thought this was going to be an epic gem but I didn't find that to be the case - but to each their own. I will say that they were pretty busy with orders 4 separate parties came in for pickup orders while we were there and the phone was ringing a lot with people placing more orders for pickup. And some phone calls didn't get answered because everyone was busy in the back. So maybe it's possible it happened to be a super busy night and they were rushing and missed some of the seasonings? So maybe this time was a one off? If we're ever nearby - we might come back for another try, after the place gets a good deep cleaning. read more

Loved this place. They had early closure compared to other places, so be prepared for it before you check this place. Food was pretty authentic. Our fav was Pineapple fried rice, Pad Thai.. read more

Never disappoints! Steve always does an amazing job everything is always full of flavor and so fresh! The best Thai food I have ever had, a must if you are in town! I recommend the fresh spring rolls and the Tom Yum Kai! read more

I've grown up eating a lot of authentic Thai food in the South Bay, so needless to say I was originally a bit skeptical about finding great Asian food options in the Mount Shasta region during our trip. However me and my friend were delightfully surprised at the authenticity of this Thai food place. We ordered two dishes: the fried rice and pad Thai with beef. There was a reasonable wait as there was a huge party right before us-- but not too long at all (and they gave us Thai iced tea too) They gave us generous servings; we had enough leftovers for another meal/snack later on. Unfortunately beef does cost extra due to the meat shortage but it was worth it- wonderfully seasoned & flavorful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who ventures to the beauty of Mt Shasta; whether you're new to Asian food or are craving something other than the burger shops there. read more

Found this place on Yelp and decided to order takeout. The prices are reasonable considering the prices of nearby restaurants. Fresh Spring Rolls - the shrimp had a nice crunch to them so I could tell they were fresh. The peanut sauce was more runny than I expected. I'd probably skip this. Pad Kemau - the usual pad kee mao you get at Thai restaurants. The portion was pretty small though. Kang Pedd - a rich red curry that was perfect for the snowy weather. I just wish it had a kick to it! This was one of my favorites! Curry noodles - the noodles were soft and chewy. The curry was very rich and the lemongrass flavor was stronger than I anticipated. This was my other favorite! Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I didn't have high expectations because I'm always skeptical of trying Asian spots in smaller towns. I'll come here again if I visit again! read more

Excellent service!!! Unique items I have never seen at any other Thai restaurant...and I frequent them all over. She specifically asked if I wanted it vegan (no fish sauce) after I ordered steamed tofu with no egg on my pad si ew. Also, when I mentioned Thai Tea, she immediately asked if I wanted coconut milk in it. My husband wasn't too hungry so they let him order a side of brown rice and a SIDE of green curry!! She refilled my water bottle and gave us a cup of ice for the road too. Superior service! read more

Phuket Thai. Playa prices for baller size plates. Yellow Curry was on hit. I respect the dude who took our order & gave us the meal. He was a real one. You can see it in the eyes, chico. Out here. read more

Maybe for the locals, but food does not have the fresh taste of other Thai restaurants that I have tried

Everything was super fresh and packed with flavor. I got the fresh spring rolls with shrimp and the curry noodles with chicken. The dip for the spring rolls was delicious, and the sauce in the noodles was perfectly balanced and super tasty. I eat here on every trip to Mount Shasta, this is a gem! read more

STUFFED CHICKEN WINGS FOR THE WIN The service and food are easily 5 stars, pair that with the decent price point - 10 STARS You can easily get full (with leftovers) off good quality food for less than $50 (for two). Check it out! read more

What a great find in Mt. Shasta! We found amazing vegetarian and vegan options here that left our group stuffed and happy. The food was delicious and flavorful.

No frills customer service but the food is AMAZING! If you're expecting a quick in and out then this is not your stop as you'll be kindly reminded by the waiter that good food takes time to make. We arrived right before a couple of large parties and were immediately seated in one of at the cute teal-colored booths. It's kind of entertaining to read the multiple disclaimers on the menu from people complaining about one thing or another in the past. Anyways, the waiter who served us deserves many kudos for his endless energy for single handedly serving over 4 parties at once while maintaining a positive attitude the entire time. The pad thai had the perfect balance of flavor without being overly lathered in sauce. Also the pad peow wan came with a deep bowl of rice and generous portion of pork mixed in with onions, red and green bell peppers, and snow peas. So good for my happy tummy read more

We ordered take out from here after our dinner reservation was cancelled. I called around 7:30pm and the man who answered the call said the restaurant was actually closed already but they could accommodate take out since the kitchen hadn't been cleaned yet. I ordered chicken pad thai & green curry with rice. With the price, I feel like the portion is pretty good. There were leftovers for 2 adults & 1 kid. The pad thai was decent - may not be authentic but pretty good. The green curry was good too - they gave us lots of filling in a big tub. Overall, the food was solid 3.5 stars for us. read more

If you prefer brown sink water in your glass then this is a place you will love. Always looks vacant was surprised to find them open.

This is a nice spot to get some soup in the winter. Never been disappointed in anything I've ordered. Always good food here!

We visited this place while headed to crater lake. Wanted a quick lunch before leaving. We ordered few vegan and chicken dishes. Basil fried rice and red curry was so delicious. Owner is very kind and explained all the dishes and the service was very fast as well. Must visit spot In mount shasta. read more

We love this place. Come here all the time. The food is great. Steve is awesome and it's very affordable. Definitely our go to place here.

Pleasantly surprised with my pad kee mao here! Ordered take out during our first night in Mount Shasta. I was hesitant to trust Thai foods around here but was craving noodles. The foods are actually really good priced! About $11 for noodles vs the other spot that charges close to $15. I placed an order via phone for pad kee mao, regular spicy and with chicken. The worker replied it'll be ready in 20min... Went to pick it up 20 min later and food was already ready. The worker at the front was really nice and quick, appreciate his welcoming service. Pad kee mao was tasty, it had a good balance of savory sweet and spicy. The regular hot was a good spice for me (I eat pretty spicy). The foods looked like it was cooked in a high heat wok, I hope my assessment is correct. Some of the veggies and noodles were slightly charred which gave it a fiery taste. It's not as fishy and not too sweet. My fiance thought it was missing flavors compared to my version of pad kee mao, but I enjoyed the meal. The only downside of the dish is the portion, it's small compared to most places. The noodles sat on top of a layer of lettuce and bean sprout, so the portion looked deceiving. I was still hungry after and had to eat chips to be full. Solid Thai spot for a mountain town. I recommend! read more

We stopped here on way back from Oregon to Bay Area. Looking for Gluten Free food options - Thai food is always a safe bet. We ordered Pad Thai - Spicy, Red curry chicken - Thai spicy and Pork Kra Pow - Pork - medium. Food was really good. Be warned Thai spicy is too hot and we eat hot. So spicy level is really good. Medium was also fine for my son. They do charge extra for added spice level to the dishes. We will stop here again when we drive through this side of the country. read more
