I love Ruby Thai Kitchens orange chicken. It's delicious! Today I got half orange and mango chicken. I love it! I had Angel wait on me and he was so good. He never hesitated about anything and made sure I had sauce and a bag to take home left overs. I don't live in the desert but when I'm home in San Diego I think about it all the time! Thank you! read more

This is good solid Mall Food Court Asian food... Which is something that I really enjoy :) I had a combo plate with Mango Chicken, Spicy Honey Chicken, Fried Rice & a Egg Roll. Everything was delish tasting and fresh. The servers were friendly and even let me sample the Mango :) It's located in the food court at The Shops at Palm Desert so there is plenty of parking and the dining area is kept clean. read more

Ruby Thai - Thai Near Me - Palm Desert, California

Zero stars. Avoid at all costs. Ordered sweet chicken with fried rice and noodles. 9.99. Rice dry and tasteless. Noodles had a fishy taste and that's it. Small portions of both but that's okay because inedible. Sweet breaded chicken was heavily breaded and again not a trace of Thai flavors/spices. This plate is a disgrace to fall into any food-inspired category. Shame on the owners for their lack of care and food integrity. read more

Consistently good food for the price. We always get the chefs special. Can't beat a plate for $11. I always get the mango chicken, it's super good. Sometimes the rice is hard, but that happens read more

Ruby Thai - Chefs special mango chicken - Thai Near Me - Palm Desert, California

This one is located inside the Palm Desert Mall's food court. And when you've been walking around the mall with two little ones, you want something quick, easy, and filling. This place fits all the boxes. and they are very generous with their portion too! SO this place is definitely worth it. We got the 3 entrees combo. Pad Thai noodle with the mango Chicken, Thai BBQ Chicken, and Spicy chicken. The pad Thai noodle is pretty bland, don't compare it to any pad Thai noodles you've had at your usual Thai spots. This pad Thai is strictly serving just as your carbs while you eat your protein of choice. Our protein of choice that day so happen to be chickens. All 3 different flavors. Same proteins, 3 styles of cooking. I was really surprised at the spicy chicken. They've placed it on a separate container and when I took a bite, it reminded me of a pork dim sum dish, but it was a chicken dish. It was really delicious. It's a bit greasy, but delicious! Both the mango Chicken and the Thai BBQ chicken tied for me. The mango Chicken is cooked with a batter and thus had a crispy crust outside the chicken and mango sauce, It was good but the mango sauce could use a little more flavor, The Thai BBQ Chicken is delicious in its own way too. It's cooked also with a sweet sauce and it goes well with the pad Thai. Overall for a food court food, this place is definitely worth the price. It's not perfect but its pretty darn good for a food court mall. The portion is huge so it was shareable for us. The choices we made were also a hit with our kids (they had everything we had except the spicy chicken). The service here is great, after you know what you want, they scoop an insane amount of food into a container. The ambiance is consistent of any food court found in the USA. read more

My bf used to come here often when he lived out here and I finally got to try it when we visited a few days ago! I love that the workers really sell their food and give you free samples to try. We got to try the mango chicken and the teriyaki chicken. Both were sooo good and the teriyaki chicken was super juicy!! I don't normally get that but it was definitely nice to try. I ended up getting the mango chicken (double) and pad Thai (double). The nice thing about their pad Thai is that it doesn't have peanuts! Most places have it served that way but it would be nice if they at least had it on the side if it comes with it for people who have allergies. Especially if you take your food home and not realize it had peanuts!! Anyway, this is probably one of the best "fast food" pad thai I have ever had. There is so much flavor to it and didn't need any additional like lime or hot sauce! Great spot and lasted me the entire week. Definitely recommend this if you're a fan of Thai food and want a quick bite AND/OR if you love Panda Express because they're similar!! IG: @ammysalamii read more

Staff very friendly and they handed out free samples. But the food was lukewarm and the noodles were rubbery with no flavor. Kind of disappointing. read more

Veggies were soupy and mushy. Mustard chicken was fatty and not fully cooked. Nice staff. Slow.

This place is in the mall's food court, so lots of space and tables to eat from. So far the food court has been pretty clean. The servers were very nice and I enjoyed their service. The food was okay. I had the two combo plate, with half rice and half noodles, the house special chicken and Thai bbq chicken. Sorry no pictures because I was hungry :( The rice and noodles were okay, though I liked the bbq chicken, tasted like it was on a grill and the sauce was not thick. The house special chicken was good, sweet with a zing. Though the meal was okay, there was a lot of options I would like to come back and try. read more

The people here are very friendly. It's a nice place to grab a meal of you get hungry from shopping all day. May not be my first choice, but it's a nice alternative for something to eat. You can usually tell how good a place is by the number of people lined up to order food, and I rarely see many people here. But I will say I really enjoy their pad thai. Delicious noodles. And I like the shrimp. Cooked just right. Go give it a try. read more

The spicy mongolian was absolutely amazing. The Orange Mango Chicken was no slump either. The fried rice was fluffy and flavorful. Absolutely great food being inside a mall. Would definitely come back. All the food had great flavor. Give it a try. read more

The food is very good, however after we ate there, someone from that establishment tried to put our debt card on their digital wallet very disappointed because that is the place we ate every time we went to the mall. If you eat there pay cash! I have a feeling I know who, but I'm not for sure so I will let them figure it out. read more

Ruby Thai - Tomyum soup - Thai Near Me - Palm Desert, California

The food flavor greasy and bland, the side noodles cabbage and over cooked noodles sitting on a hot plate for hours. The bbq pork was flavorless and greasy. Their main kitchen was closed so you had old warmed up old food to purchase. The bowl I got wasn't worth 10.00 dollars. Lower quality than any Thai food I had. read more

It's a good place to get lunch. Their food was kind of bland when they first opened, but it's gotten so much better. Their tom yum is comforting, but they pack it full of noodles. The employees are always friendly even near the end of the day when their dead tired. read more

Food is really good. Always eat there when we go to the mall. I love the pad thai noodles

Best items are the two chicken samples you receive. The rest is bland and waste of money. Tried them twice. Pass this one up.

Food was inedible. Nearly $20 for a 1 entree plate with crappy shrimp chicken rice (watery flavorless 1 tiny shrimp in it) dried out chewy mystery chicken in some I think teriyaki sauce and 5 dollar 2 tiny fried shrimp uncooked dough on inside, I threw it away. Service was excellent from cashier though she needs to go somewhere else. read more

Chicken Curry is not that great, bbq chicken was ok, egg roles are cold. Ruby Thai frequently runs out of food.

The food is just nasty. The mango chicken could have been fried anything, it was so overcooked. The pad Thai noodles were gross and greasy. The Dr Pepper tasted okay. Maybe I wasn't hungry after seeing blood spattered all over one of the bathroom stalls. Malls are dying for good reason. read more
