Love this place go here all the time I usually do take out as the seating inside is limited read more

Love this place but come on do better with the hours especially Fridays and Saturdays.

Was excited to finally try this place. Went in at 5pm on a Friday and was told they only do takeout on Friday's and Saturday. What? Literally told us we could not sit down at a table. What is up with that? read more

We've dined in and ordered takeout and everything is always excellent. My faves are the Pad See Ew, Panang Curry, and Thai Basil chicken. The owner is friendly and food is fresh/made to order. Portions could be a little bigger for the price, but it's delicious, quality food so we keep coming back! read more

My husband and I are relatively new to the area. A few weeks ago, I drove away from where "Beyond Thai" that used to be located in the Aliso Viejo Town Ctr after seeing that it was permanently closed. I was so bummed to see this! Remembered a Thai restaurant near Stater Bros. Went there for lunch. The food was GREAT!! The lady who works there was personable and accommodating. The Thai Basil lunch special was not only absolutely delicious, but what an incredible deal!! Price and quality were so good that I ordered an entree to go. It was their pad kee mao ("Drunken Noodles"). It was WONDERFUL! I plan to go here (or pick up) much more often once my schedule changes in a couple of weeks:) Nice peace of mind that I will have a favorite "go-to" spot for Thai in the area! read more

Bought curry chicken and it's bad .. paid 20$ and big chunk of onion and little not fresh pieces of chicken .. not coming back

Ordered dinner to go. Food was decent and service was good. However, the portions were so small that a person needs to eat two entrees to feel full. read more

Sure the hours are inconvenient and the prices are not what's shown here on Yelp, BUT THE FOOD IS BOMB DOT COM. Veggie Egg Rolls I get the chicken pad see ew and it's also Highly recommend! They're fast, they're nice, and their food is excellent! read more

Our first time with a take out order and it went well. placed the order over the phone and it was ready within 15 minutes. The food was good but the only issue was not being able to choose our level of spiciness as we tend to enjoy lots of spice. It's fairly typical for this area though. We picked a variety of dishes to sample - yellow curry - pad see ew - and some veggie dishes. Everything was good and we appreciated they pack the take out orders very well! I cannot comment on ambience or service but this spot is great if you want some good thai food without the spice. :) read more

Always nice snd helpful . I usually call in my order and it's ready for pick up which I sometimes eat in the shaded patio area in the back. Generous lportions. read more

Siamese Express - My chicken pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

Disappointed after seeing the rave reviews. Portion small and not particularly tasty Don't know how they got such great reviews read more

Great Thai tastes with big portions at reasonable prices! Hard to find no fuss, affordable eateries like these after Covid.

Amazing food and amazing service!! We came here looking to try a new Thai spot and we found a new local fav! We got the pad Thai with tofu and it was so flavorful and delicious! They made the tofu nice and crispy. You can hear the crunch with every bite. I rarely find a place that has good pad Thai, and this one did an amazing job with it. read more

My first time trying this restaurant and I highly recommend! I ordered the yellow curry, medium spiced with chicken and it was absolutely incredible. The owner was so sweet too. I ordered to go but the food was hot and super delicious. Wayyyy better than Thai Table by Ralph's. I've been looking for a good Thai place in the area and I think I've finally found one! Can't wait to try more from this restaurant! read more

Another good find on yelp. working local vendor and did a yelp search and found this place. Small, quaint establishment two ladies working authentic food. I like the fact they asked what heat range you wanted. Good service great food!$ Asking is a great sign of a Asian restaurant. read more

Solid place. Was upset when Beyond Thai down the street closed in November. The other Thai place by Ralph's is meh. But I love this place, the food is excellent. Not the best seating arrangement inside but it can work in certain circumstances. Don't go at night in December as it's freezing inside. But you can order to go. The Pad Tai with pork is the best I've had in a long time. Took the advice from helpers to request less oil and it worked. Will return. read more

I came here bc of the reviews and the prices on the menu found on Yelp. As it turns out the menu is outdated by several years. Like many other reviewers, I found the portions small, the cost high and the flavors uneventful. read more

I love this little mom and Pop restaurant! It's small and quaint. The food is cooked fresh to order and really good. I love their Pad Thai. They have a little patio in the back where we always sit. The service is excellent! The owner is very sweet...she remembered us the second time we went. She even brought out water for my pup. If you're hungry and driving down La Paz, pull over because it's definitely worth a try. That's what we did and keep going back. read more

Wonderful food at a good price and even better, welcoming service. This is a peak small business to support in the area!!

Been coming here for the last few years - SUCH AMAZING FOOD! I've gotten pad Thai, pad see ew, multiple curries and almost all there appetizers. The sweetest staff and great Thai Boba Tea! Seriously love this place. 5 star customer service, 5 star food and 5 star Thai tea. It's more so a place to take out but they have a few seats! Mom n pop shop / hole in wall read more

South Orange County has a lot of great Thai restaurants. Some are better than others and service can be hit or miss! You have many larger dine in locations and some smaller locations for people that are on the go! Siamese Express happens to be one of the better Thai restaurants in the area. It's ideal for people that need a quick meal with generous servings! Siamese Express is located at the intersection of La Paz and Pacific Park Drive. It's situated in a small shopping center near Target. Plenty of parking is available in the lot so you won't have any issues finding a spot for your vehicle. The restaurant itself is actually very small. When you walk inside, you'll see that the interior dining room is smaller than expected. You also have an opportunity to dine on their patio. I believe their outdoor seating area is shared with the adjacent Italian restaurant. A nice awning protects you from the hot sun and they also have heaters that are ideal for colder days I typically place my order over the phone and it's ready within 10 minutes. It's truly an express food preparation process and everything is cooked thoroughly. I really love their Pad See Ew because it has the perfect amount of flavoring, making it a delicious meal. The lady that answers the phone is always very nice. She's also very efficient! As soon as I walk in, my food is on the counter, ready to go. We review my order, I pay, and then I'm on my way. It's simple and to the point! That's what I like about this place. It's quick and your food is delicious! If you're looking for a simple place to enjoy traditional Thai food, you can't go wrong with Siamese Express! read more

Agreed with the positive review for this restaurant! Their food is really delicious, but I will definitely have mine more spicy next time. I chose this place based on yelp review and it's rite! I ordered Spicy Beef Fried Rice, I like it and the oil is not excess! Their Thai Ice Coffee is also good, and it's not pricey at all! This place really make me wanted to go back again, though it took about 30mins to get there. Their food till the service is top of the list! read more

Great clean place for authentic Thai food! Great service willing to assist with specific dietary needs. I would consider coming back when I'm in the area! read more

Our first time to do a takeout here. Food was ok for a take out, service was ok to prepare, wait was reasonable. I have to say the portions, amount of beef in a beef entree and the prices were totally unacceptable. I know there is inflation all over but the prices here are just not justified for what we get. Too Expensive ! read more

First time here. Pat was very nice. We sat to eat vs take out. Got my traditional yellow veggie curry and Tom Kha veggie. Let's not forget the Thai boba ice tea for a mere $3.50 as a great deal. Food was good. I'd definitely come back. Honestly this is what yelp is about, finding great places. This is like a mom & pop place, which is probably why the food is the best. Found my favorite Thai place now. We'll be back! read more

My husband and I order Siamese rice and dumplings on a fairly regular basis. The Siamese rice is very good and they cook it to order - adding extras we want and leaving out the onions my stomach can't handle! Whenever we call we feel a personal touch because they remember our order each time. I love their sweet/sour orange sauce- it's the best in South OC! read more

First time visit. Ordered the Pad See Ew and Thai Tea. Both had a nice flavor and the people were very friendly and welcoming when entering the restaurant. Looks like patio seating is available and the lady helping me mentioned that call and pick up orders are available as well. They prepared the food quickly and the wait time was about 10 minutes. Hope to visit again soon! read more

Great food, friendly and great service. Flavor in every bite. Food is always hot and

We have been coming here for years and love it! Owner is great and very kind, this is one of the best Thai places in the area..

I placed my order of Pad thai through the phone and I was happy to pick it up 10 minutes later. When I opened box and saw the pad thai, I had a feeling that it was not right. It was very pale and sad looking pad thai. It's a little too sour. There were only very soggy beansprout, pale rice noodle and few pieces of pork, and very oily. No freshly crushed crunchy peanut. I didnt enjoy it. I didnt finish it. The previous owner (old couple) did better thai food. The current people who work here are nice people too, but ..I am sorry but I gave this new management a handful of tries, and I am not satisfied with their food. read more

Made an order for pickup to support local today. First time I tried this place Pad kee mao was spot on. Owner is a delight and I hope like heck they make it through the lockdown Please try them or revisit them. People like this are why you should #SupportLocal. read more

Red curry chicken was fabulous... slightly spicy and so flavorful. The pad see ewe with beef was good but the beef was a bit dry. Cute little place with outdoor patio seating. I've only ever gotten takeout from here though. read more

Here in town to help take care of my mother I popped in to try something new. I tried the lunch special Rama with chicken and it was amazing!! The front of house was so sweet and attentive. I ordered Togo but saw they have the cutest lil patio. 5 stars plus! Thank you and I will def be back! read more

This place is so good!! I used to go with my coworkers for lunch at least once every 2 weeks. Sometimes twice! I can't speak for everything as I always get the Chicken Pad Thai but that itself is delicious. The lunch special comes with soup, salad, cream cheese wontons, and Thai Tea for about $11. (The menu photos on here are from years ago so I'm not sure how accurate they are.) I stopped working near that area, however, I still went back after that and it was later during the weekend so the lunch special didn't apply but it was about $15 per plate? Damn noodles are addicting - worth the drive for me and the owner is so so kind!! read more

Food overall decent however have always been the strangest hours (comically close few hours during day) and most recently we were asked to leave the restaurant because they said they are "only open for takeout on Fridays and Saturdays". What a comical manner of running a business. We will not return. PS - no sign or note in the windows stating "only takeout". read more

The yellow curry is amazing. Great place to grab a quick lunch. The lunch specials are fairly priced and they serve it with a Thai tea as well. Talking about the tea.... I work walking distance from the restaurant and every Friday, or at least once a week our office gets our Thai tea pick me up from there. It is sooo good, perfectly made each time and gives us the perfect amount of caffeine. The owner is awesome and very friendly, she aims to get to know her customers and give excellent service. read more

I got food poisoning from this place, ordered the Mongolian beef, and orange chicken... 2 very common dishes. I had a PBJ for lunch, so this was my only meal. Called the next day to tell them to check on their food storage and refrigerator temps or someone made a mistake. She hung up. read more
