I did a DoorDash order through Rum Thai Bistro and the food is the best Thai food I've had in a very long time! I'll be ordering from them again very soon. So so yummy! read more

This remains my 'tried and true' nearby standout for good, solid Thai food. I put in an order online for take-out at lunch, 1pm. It noted a 20 minute time frame for it to be ready. I headed over and arrived nearly to the minute. The order wasn't quite ready, which is unusual, but no problem as it only too approx. 10 more minutes, and I was not in a rush. This time I had a difficult time deciding on an appetizer, and opted for the Crab and Cream cheese Wontons, which comes with a nice sweet and sour sauce. They were good, crunchy and the filling delicious. Eggplant dishes are a favorite so I chose the Pad Eggplant w/pork. It was flavorful and very well prepared with just enough sauce. The Pad Kee Noodles (Drunken Noodles) were fantastic as always although I found the chicken selection somewhat chewy. My all time favorite, the Pineapple Fried Rice was right on target and super good. The past couple of times the flavor and amount of pineapple had diminished some, but this was back to awesome status. Usually I get one of the larger salads too, but this time opted for a smaller Cucumber Salad which was perfect. Fresh with an excellent variety of veggies to really compliment the meal off well. I got medium spice for nearly everthing. It was fine for me although quite apparent. I worried about Ed as he's more sensitive. He didn't mention it so I guess it passed the test for both of our spiciness levels. I really recommend this place and although prices can seem high the quality and quantity matches the value. read more

We walked in during lunch hours, we seated right away, We got water and menus. The ambiance was really nice and well put together and very super peaceful music in the background. We got the wonton soup, shrimp, and vegetable tempura and chicken pad see ew. Everything came out in a timely manner and everything was hot and delicious portions were great. Everything was very hardy. The service were very attentive water glasses were always full and dirty dishes was always cleared and they were always attentive to see if we needed anything.

Rum Thai Bistro - 43. Green Curry - Thai Near Me - Lincoln, California

Rum Thai always has great flavors and fast service, Pad Thai ( Thai spicy) is remarkably and very hot !! Must try

Really rude owner. Super dismissive. They don't follow what their menu states comes in the lunch meals.

Absolute favorite Thai spot! I just moved to the area from the Bay and thought I'd only have chain food spots to pick from. Boy was I wrong. So many fantastic ma and pa spots in Lincoln, Rocklin, Roseville. Rum Thai wins Best Thai food from us! I've ordered here over 10x now and they never miss. The fried rice is my favorite and I have dietary restrictions which they always accommodate (sensitive tummy!). Each dish is made with love and it tastes like it. My husband loves their Thai basil stir fry, panang curry, and yellow curry. Their food is so fresh and never greasy/oily so it never leaves you feeling icky. Thank you for existing out here Rum Thai! read more

Omg this place is amazing !! If I could give it 10 stars I would ! This is a small family owned Thai restaurant in lincoln CA. It's a husband and wife that owned restaurant they take an hour break everyday from 3-4 pm right before the dinner rush . You could tell they take pride in their food and their establishment. Walking in everything is very clean and organized. They have excellent service . They are very friendly and attentive. For food, I love everything on the menu. If you come you have to try the pineapple rice It's delicious. Everything just taste so fresh. I have a shellfish allergy and they always help me with my order so that I do not get an allergic reaction. I barely go to any place that serves oyster sauce, but I will definitely come here because they take care of me. They make sure that there is no shellfish on my plate and I really appreciate that. Overall, I highly recommend this Thai restaurant. It's very delicious. You will get top-notch service. You will not regret coming here. I can't wait to go back. read more

I enjoyed a lunch special of green curry and was pleasantly surprised it included a green salad and tapioca pudding dessert all for less than $13. The curry was delicious and included jasmine rice. What a find! I will definitely return here very soon. read more

Hurray for $10.95 Weekday Lunch Specials from 11 AM to 3 PM! Salad, entree, white rice, and dessert. Not the largest quantity of food, but I think it is a health-conscious portion. I was told that the To Go menu prices would be going up soon. Salad was lettuce and shredded carrot with a sweet peanut-based dressing. Green Curry Beef was my entree. It had a good amount of beef and a variety of vegetables: green beans, eggplant, bamboo shoots, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. I liked the plating. For $1, you can upgrade to brown rice, which appears to be a multigrain mix in another reviewer's photo. Shrimp costs an extra $2. Dessert was a small scoop of colorful Thai Tapioca, which is green tapioca, coconut milk, and corn. I like getting free Asian desserts with a meal. Thai Tapioca is available on the dessert menu on weekdays primarily. These are dishes I'd be interested in trying in the future: - Red Curry - Boat Noodle Soup - Silver Glass Noodle Soup - Silver Noodle Salad - Pad Eggplant (Pad Ma Keur) - Thai Basil (Pad Kra Pao) - Sweet and Sour (Pad Priew Warn) - Pad Woon Sen (stir-fried silver noodles, eggs, veggies, and protein choice) Warm and inviting restaurant with beautiful gold and red paintings of Thai dancers. Thanks for the recommendation, Lincoln Yelp Elites Tom B. and Aly A. read more

I always enjoy their green curry. They are great for take out or done in. I love their lunch deal. Definitelty recommend!

Really good Thai food, totally worth the drive to Lincoln. The pad Thai was very flavorful as we're the fresh rolls and peanut sauce. Definitely will be back! read more

My boyfriend and I usually go to Orchid Thai over on Twelve Bridges but we decided we wanted to try a new place. To be honest, I like this place even more. The servers were great and friendly. Food came really fast too. We had the pot stickers, chicken satay, beef and chicken pad Thai, and Thai fried rice with chicken. Everything was so delicious and the portions were pretty big. We left very full. Personally I wanted to try some of their desserts but we were both so full. We will have to try them next time. The ambiance was nice and very relaxed. Perfect setting for a date, or a nice dinner with the family/friends. I cannot wait to come back. read more

It is located in the Raley's shopping plaza. We came here for lunch and the restaurant was mostly empty. The service was pretty fast. We started with the chicken larb salad. It was refreshing, but I'm used to it usually being spicy. We also ordered the pad woon sen (noodles) for the kids. I didn't try it, but it had more vegetables than noodles in it. Lastly, we had the basil fried rice with pork. It was good overall, but could've used more flavor. We left full. read more

My husband and I came here for the first and definitely not the last time tonight. We were on our way to Hard Rock Casino to see a show, and I wanted to dine outside of the smoky casino, so we stopped here due to the great reviews we saw (Thank you, my fellow Yelper family!) It's a cozy, nicely decorated restaurant and the minute you get inside, you know you are going to enjoy the experience, just from smelling the beautiful waft of aromas greeting you here. The service was fantastic and swift, and the food...OMG, the food was top notch! Every dish we had was the perfectly executed version of each Thai dish we've had elsewhere and the shrimp in each dish were huge, succulent and the entrees had so much flavor! We highly recommend this establishment and the stir fry eggplant with "grandmother's sauce" was out of sight! (Grandmother knows her sauce!) We will definitely be back!! A fantastic meal!! Please give them a try, you will no doubt love it! read more

Very nice quiet place in a nice area. Servers are very attentive to the guests, often asking if you need anything. I got the fish cakes appetizer with a Thai Iced Tea and Yellow Curry (with shrimp). Fish cakes were not quite what I was expecting, but they were still very good. Flavorful, the sauce they come with is a huge kicker for them! Thai iced tea was also very good. The Yellow Curry! Amazing, when it first came I was a little skeptical, as it looked like a tiny bowl; but it ended up being plenty to eat. Very flavorful, delicious, with some decent sized shrimp in there. The complimentary dessert, honestly I'm not sure what it was, looked and tasted like a thin yogurt with guava boba in it... while it WASNT bad, I, myself was not a fan. read more

I was feeling under the weather and craving wonton soup. My regular place was closed so I ordered to go from Rum Thai. It warmed my soul, soothed my throat and quickly became my favorite wonton soup in our area. The wontons are homemade with sausage. They add more vegetables than most which I loved. It is a large portion that lasted two meals. I added chili oil to spice it up! I can't wait to order it again! read more

Excellent food!! So flavorful. The staff is so sweet & accommodating too. 10/10! Highly recommend the crab wontons. read more

Amazing Food. We had people with food allergies and they coached us on what to choose. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend

Rum Thai Bistro has the absolute best Pad Thai Tofu that I have ever eaten! I have not found any other restaurant that comes close to the deliciousness of their Pad Thai. I order spicy level 1, which for me is perfect. And the portion size is generous. The staff are always kind and personable and their service is excellent. read more

Love their food. So fresh. Prompt. I normally get to go. So much food. Blah blah blah. Why 85?

This review is for in-person dining/food. We have ordered their food to go (Doordash) about 3-4 times and loved it! Everything was cooked well, packaged well and taste amazing. We were in the area and haven't had Rum thai Bistro in awhile so we used the opportunity to try Rum Thai Bistro in person. Got seated, service was ok. We ordered and food came out quickly. Once the food started to come out, we knew something was different. All the food was overly sauced and extremely sweet. The pad Thai was swimming in the sauce which it shouldn't be. We tried to drain off as much of the sauce but it was just drenched. The papaya salad was more sour than anything, we tried to add spice to give it more flavor but it didn't really help. The garlic eggplant and chicken was probably the only thing that was decent because we had a side of steam rice to absorb some of the saltiness. Super disappointed. I'm nervous to order to go if this is something that just changed with the restaurant or if to go is the way to go??? Not sure but overall, pretty bummed. read more

The selection of food is very good with stir fry, curries, and more. We had several different dishes. Each was cooked so nicely and the flavors were wonderful. Can't wait until next time. So good. read more

This is one of the hidden gems in Lincoln as it really is hidden behind the pillars in front of the restaurant. San & Mali make you feel as if you are part of their family, they are the owners, and the head chef Nick, Mali's brother, is an awesome Thai chef. All their foods are tasteful and made to your liking. My wife like her walnut chicken mild and I prefer my Thai Basil either medium heat or Thai hot. Depending on my mood. Mali makes the potstickers so I know they are fresh and handmade. Very good. I haven't had a bad experience in this restaurant in all the years I've been coming since they first took ownership from Uncle Pon. They also serve beer and wine as well as soft drinks and hot teas, Thai teas and Thai iced coffee and hot coffee. You can't go wrong here. read more

Still great after all these years! Still love the Boat Noodle Soup, they still make it as spicy as I like (level 10 or more). Everything else on the menu that we love is very consistent in flavor. Service is always attentive and thorough. Atmosphere is welcoming and properly lit. Still no complaints, see you soon! read more

I love their silver glass noodle soup. Its so good. It is mostly what I order. Others in my family have tried many of the other dishes and report that they are also excellent. The service is good and the female waitress is pleasant and has a good sense of humor. We are always pleased when she waits on us. Lunch is always quickly served, allowing you time to enjoy your meal and make it back to work on time. I believe that this is a family run restaurant. The interior is pleasantly decorated and comfortable making us feel instantly at ease. The staff is always un-pretentious, professional and helpful. I highly recommend them for both dinner and lunch. read more

Went to try this place and was very happy we did. The food was excellent! We had the Crab Fried rice, Pad Thai, and the Panang Curry. They were all delicious. The service from the wait staff was great. They regularly checked on us. I love spicy food so I had the choose #4 from their spice level and #4 being the spiciest. The ambiance was really nice and casual. Definitely recommend and will be coming back. A+ read more

Great food! Great service! The green curry is the best in town. The people are always super helpful and very nice. The ambiance is casual, very clean and inviting.

Ordered takeout. Their pumpkin curry was delicious. It comes with both chicken and shrimp. Will be trying more dishes.

This place was really cute & intimate. Small inside however you can tell lots of the locals come there for a good bite to eat. Lots of pick up orders and we clearly made it before the rush. The food was very fulfilling and lots of flavor. We ordered the green curry, a few appetizers, and the pad Thai. Our table was very happy. We will be back. read more

Rum Thai Bistro - 43. Green Curry - Thai Near Me - Lincoln, California

Food quality is just outstanding. Extremely conscientious wait staff. Every time. Scale of 1-4 on hot. I love hot food but have only gone 3. It's plenty. My wife who doesn't do hot food does 2. There is a jump in heat from 2 to 3. Pad Thai, Cashew, sweet and sour all excellent. Price reasonable. Haven't had soup yet. Will next time. Please try. Try level 2 unless you love hot. It's just good. read more

10/10 !!! I should preface by saying that I am biased because I'm friends with the family. That said, I'm so impressed with both Mali & Narong who continue the traditional Thai cuisine they learned from their Mother Ann who moved to America in the 90's rffrom a small farming village in Northern Thailand called Uttraladitte (sp.) so that Mali & Nick could have a better life. Mali has a contagious smile and endless energy & Nick (Narong) works equally as hard in the back making it all happen. Both were born in Thailand & both have embraced the American dream of owning a business. Mali & Nick have a true love for food even growing the peppers and herbs in their own private garden I personally like Mali's won ton soup. She makes the dumplings by hand the old school way which is slow but better !! And "Nick's salad" Nom Tok which isn't on the menu you have to ask for it. Love, Bill read more
