Seriously, the staff is always engaging and friendly. During one visit I was lucky enough to meet one of the owners. Her husband being the other, if I recall correctly. She shared some stores of the restaurant and asked us questions as well. She was amazing and I learned some cool Thai cooking tricks. The food is great. I don't go often, since it's a little further than I usually go. So, when I do go, it's because I want their food and their experience. It's a unique place that combines a "dining" night out with a comfortable night out. And that's not only the food, really, the whole place and its people are nice and easy to feel at home around. Price wise, it's a bit more than some; however, it is also set in a calm and more intentionally designed place than most in the area. It's a place to go and chat with friends, date night, of a self treat, because there isn't a sense that you need to hurry. In fact, I think they would prefer you savor your time with them, instead of hurry. Parking is easy.

The BEST vegan desserts in town !!…read more THIS is how vegan desserts should be done Located rt next door to Chef Tanya's kitchen It's so hard to find ones that actually taste good and aren't crazy sweet or falling apart... this place nails it.

But Desert Thai is a real standout. Not the fanciest place, (which is actually good in my mind), the it's clean and the service was top notch. Never once had to wonder where our waitperson sent off too, perfect blend of available but not bothersome. We ordered the traditional test dish Pad Thai, very good. The Prik King, also very good. Both were on the lunch specials which included rice and soup or salad on each. The soup, Tom yum. Both the soup and salad were spot on. Anxious to go back with a larger group than two to try more dishes!

Almost every dish bursted with flavor with the standout being Tom Kha soup. Generous portion of Beef Panang had strong coconut and lemongrass overtones and perfectly mild as requested. Yummy fresh crisp green beans with fried tofu really rounded out the meal. The chef seafood speciality was very good but a bit heavy on the bell pepper/onion filler. Chicken satay was thoroughly enjoyed by the 4-year old. Adults all had a taste and agreed that it was moist but lacked flavor. One more big plus- rice was included, it seems a rarity in asian restaurants these days. Final bill was about $100- no alcohol, just an apple juice for the little one. Note that the restaurant is small. If you're craving Thai, get your name on the list. Will definitely come again when we're in town. Highly recommend. ~EG Eats

My party came on a Saturday night and it was pretty full. Service was a bit understaffed but we were understanding. We were a group of 6 and wanted to do family style. We ordered three dishes: stir fried basil, honey roasted duck, and steamed soy sauce fish. Each dish was a hit and satiated us so well! Portions were pretty good and flavors were amazing. I really could talk about the duck forever. So flavorful, tender, and perfect on a bed of rice. This is the place to go to when you're craving Thai food in Palm Springs. There is no one better!

The ratio of cream cheese to puff pastry was way off and there was sooo much cream cheese. We couldn't really eat these, but we ordered enough that we were totally fine with that. - green curry with tofu (medium spice): SO good. The flavor was great, the spice was perfect, and the tofu was so delicious. I loved this! - pad see ew with chicken (mild to medium): also delicious. I loved the flavors, and the chicken was great! Would absolutely order this again. I love pad see ew, and this was definitely one of the better ones I've had! It was tough only ordering these, because I really wanted everything on the menu. I would love to have this all again!

I always feel welcomed upon entering and the service is always great and attentive! The restaurant itself is spacious and easy to get around, with some TVs playing live games. We ordered the Tom-Yum soup and Pad Thai today. We usually order their Papaya Salad and Fresh Spring Rolls as our appetizers but we decided to order something new! The Tom-Yum soup is good, but I do believe it's missing some tart/sourness that you'd taste in other traditional Tom-Yum soups, however it's packed with lots of chicken and mushrooms, so that's an A+ in my book! And of course the star of the show, the Pad Thai. You can definitely taste the authenticity of this dish here, it's sweet, savory, nutty, and very aromatic! It was also nice and smoky, you can definitely tell that it was cooked on a wok. They are very generous with their portions as well. All in all, love this place, if you're ever craving Thai food, and you are nearby, My Thai should be on the top of your list :)

When I started to ask about a different table not directly next to the kitchen, she took the menus away and said "if you don't like its its ok I don't have any more tables, we're full". We were extremely tired and so we decided to stay, the food was ok but the waitress was just rude and short, rolled her eyes at every question, cut us off when we tried to speak, it was awful. We then talked to the manager that was very apologetic, and I said that I would go out of my way to write a review. That was until the waitress came back to confront me about what she did wrong, and when I said : " it was your general attitude and snappiness" , she was like: "give me an example", and I said: " like coming here and confronting me, that's very unprofessional. This conversation is over". Do not come here. Food is mid. It's loud and not clean.

Orn, the owner helped with our menu planning and was so accommodating. She allowed my wife to set up bday banners and decorations beforehand pretty early while they were still open for customers. Their service was top notch and always made sure our drinks and food were timely. I met her in the back afterwards and can tell she cooked with pride and love. If you are ever in the la Quinta area and have a craving for authentic, savory and delicious food go there!

SHORT ANSWER: Yes, just updating for 2026 but still low key, easy going Thai experience. Nothing…read morefancy except great service and food. LOCATION: Nice shopping center location, very open with lots of parking. FACILITY: Very nice, not modern inside and has not changed since they opened but totally fine. MENU: Lunch menu is kind of limited but has all the goodness and noodle choices you'd expect. Not much savings for lunch special. FOOD PREP: Very well done for such a small kitchen. FOOD QUALITY: Really good for what it is, I would have liked a bit more spice or to at least to have been asked for spice level options. I'd say spice level was like a 1 at other Thai places. Rice noodle was great. WAITSTAFF: We arrived at open 11:30am, very nice and attentive getting us seated and order in, then they were packed. Only one person on the floor doing everything, he was amazing dealing with seating, orders, and payment. OVERALL VALUE: It is fair but not inexpensive, a good value for sure for our local place that is reliable and consistent. TIP: This is a small restaurant so be kind, when busy they can only go so fast getting your food delivered or the check, They do take out as well.
