    Pineapple Curry
    Jeremy S.

    I've been here a few times now and this is one of the best Thai restaurants in town! It's a small restaurant near UCR, a bit unassuming but the food here is fantastic. The standout items on the menu is definitely their curry dishes. So far we have had their pineapple and green curry and both have been amazing. The meat is tender, and the curry sauce is rich and flavorful. It really feels like you're eating homemade Thai food when you dine here. For dessert, we had their mango sticky rice as well. Perfect way to end a meal. Really great experience both times I've been here!

    Tom Kha Soup
    Mimi M.

    Stopped at Royal Thai after a long day of car shopping. I was exhausted and so hungry I could barely think. When I walked in I was immediately hit with the smell of bathroom mop water. I contemplated leaving but frankly I was too tired to go elsewhere and was greeted as soon as I was getting the energy to walk right back out and find somewhere else. The gentleman who sat me was very friendly and seemed cheerful which is always a plus. My order was taken very quickly. The tom Kha came out quickly and the taste was standard, but I'm very used to having tomato in mine and there was none in here. So it was mostly chicken and mushrooms with a little bit of greens and lemongrass, which is fine but I feel the tomato balances out the soups flavor profile in a pretty big way now that I've had it without. The price point was typical, and the interior of the restaurant looked a lot nicer than it smelled.

    Best Thai place in Riverside! Been to other Thai places but can't compare to the Local home cooked meals, large portions, and great staff! I got the pad Thai 10/10. And my friends loved their dishes too. Food comes out fresh out of the kitchen as it's made. Ambiance is family style and relaxing environment.

    The mussuman beef blew my socks off and the mango sticky rice was phenomenal. Will be coming back!!!

    When we are craving for a Thai food, we always come here. Food and service always meet our standards. You must try their Mango Sticky Rice for dessert!

    I tried the pad see ew. Noodles were overcooked and overall, overly sweet. Portions was good though. Tables and restrooms are not maintained and are dirty. No issues with service by employees.

    The food is always consistent and delicious! Me and my wife always come to dine in for our…read moreanniversary or special occasions. We always get the Drunken Noodles with beef, highly recommend it! Oh, the Thai Tea is the BEST! For dessert, the mango sticky rice is a go to when in season. Service is great too! Waiters are pretty quick to get your drinks and orders. They even provided a little disposable plate for my toddler daughter, which we appreciated (especially since kids love to throw things). Just make sure you order entrees and dessert altogether, otherwise you'll have to wait until a waiter is available, they're always so busy! The ambiance is nice, and they have outdoor seating too with fruit trees and a fountain. Gets a little loud during peak times but no big deal. Parking is an issue though. Tight spaces and not enough lots. Though you can park around the block along the public road. 10/10 imo. And we'll always return, especially to try other menu items.

    We came here for lunch because my co-worker raved about it. They had dinner here just the night…read morebefore. We all ordered off lunch special menu. I wish they have some noodle dishes on the lunch special menu. I ordered Thai basil with chicken. The presentation and the taste were nic. It's a good value as it came with green salad (or soup), two fried wontons and fried rice (or steamed rice). Unfortunately i found a big piece of egg shell from my egg! I'd still go back to try more items from their regular menu and mango sticky rice! The space is big. It's got a full bar. The parking could be tough during rush hour.
