    Phra-Ram

    We took my dad here for lunch on Saturday. It was calm and quiet inside with attentive service. The food was delicious and flavorful and we received large portions and had plenty of leftovers. We ordered papaya salad with medium spice, basil fried rice, pad-kee mao with beef, blistered green beans, and phra-ram with prawns. We will definitely be back when we are back in Vallejo!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE Simple Thai. I'm willing to drive from Fairfield to Vallejo to dine here. I've never been disappointed in any dish I've ordered. You can feel the love put into all their food. It's truly family run and feels like nostalgia. The staff have the gift of remembering all their patrons. Everyone should support this business.

    Food is made fresh to order. Service is friendly and giving very mom & pop local business. Ambiance is spacious and open, sad they don't have more people to come & dine inside. I came on a random Thursday night though. I'd likely come back cuz my sis said this spot is good!

    Penang curry, Garlic pepper calamari & garlic rice.

    One of the best Thai meals I've had in a long while. And of all places in Vallejo! The surrounding area is typical of the aging downtown but don't be deterred in trying their food. I cannot rave enough about their garlic pepper calamari, Penang curry and Tom Kha Ga soup. So delicious - all the dishes left your taste buds wanting more but your tummy says no! I loved their garlic rice as well. When I visit this town next, I will definitely have another meal or take a to-go order back home over an hour away...

    Smelled funny.
    Jorydude R.

    Rude completely. Had lunch here today wasn't the best but ok. Ordered some pad Thai to go. When opened at home it had a funny smell. Naturally I call back. They weren't very happy. Accusing that I am lying. For $13.95 I'm going to lie. Really? So I wasn't going to return it. I wanted to let them know what's up but I decided that I should let them know for quality control. I arrive at the place and asked them to smell it and they say I'm not used to eating their style of Thai food. I was like I eat Thai all the time. Never had I had anything smell like that. Didn't want to get to an argument then comes the owners wife telling me how I should react to the food that they made that smelled funny. I really didnt want to argue but remember this is just for $13.95. You gonna argue with your customer? I said we'll try again next time and she says they'd rather not and I should go to my Filipino place! I was like what? ( I am Filipino btw). Instead of taking a review of your product and berating your customer I would've said apologies sir let's try again. But not with this place. I had better Thai in Trader Joe's frozen section. Geez never again. I really wanted to like this place but..

    Green beans contained rock hard garlic that sent me to urgent care

    I ordered from this restaurant through doordash. Took one bit of their green beans (literally one bite) and immediately felt shooting pain up my jaw as I crunched down on a rock hard piece of garlic. I'm in excruciating pain, unable to open my mouth or move my jaw at all without severe nerve pain. It's insane that they would serve garlic that is this hard, the pieces are seriously like little rocks, they are impossible to chew or bite down on. I'm writing this review as I wait for advice from a nurse friend because I'm so stunned that any kitchen would serve food like this. I'm Asian as well so I understand using fried garlic but this is next level insanity. I can't even talk or move my tongue in my mouth without feeling excruciating jolts of pain. Makes me distrust the level of food quality overall. And on top of that, the green beans were also overcooked, mushy, and stringy. Ordering from this place was the worst mistake I've made in a very long time. Edit: Just realized this place closed right when my delivery arrived. Maybe they gave me old food that was overcooked or sitting out since they were closing soon? Regardless, I will not be touching any of the other items I ordered. Not worth the risk when they don't have standards for what comes out of their kitchen. I'll be escalating this issue through Doordash since I may need to seek medical attention. Sounds ridiculous and I can't believe I'm saying it but it's true!

    pad see ew
    Carol L.

    I walked in with no expectations and was AMAZED by how fantastic their food is. We ordered their pad see-ew and the tom kha soup (coconut based). Both of these were absolutely delicious, I'm craving to go back already. Portion sizes were generous - we took some home to eat for leftovers. Also with a Yelp check in, you get a free thai tea! Aside from the food, service was also great as our server took our order quickly and checked in occasionally to fill our waters. Music selection was also great as if it was like it was playing from our own playlists. The pricing is also very affordable as I'd rate it one $. I highly recommend this place and I'm itching to go back the next time I'm back in the area.

    Had such a wonderful dining experience at Elephant Thai Cuisine!…read more First of all, the ambiance is incredibly unique. The restaurant is filled with beautiful decorative elements that reflect Thai culture and traditions, which made the whole experience feel warm, authentic, and very interesting. One thing I really appreciated is that they offer half-size options for some appetizers. It's perfect if you want to try a variety of dishes without ordering too much. We took advantage of that and ordered the fish cakes, fried calamari, and chicken wings -- and everything was excellent. The fish cakes were flavorful, the calamari was fresh, crispy, and perfectly cooked, and the chicken wings were deliciously crispy as well. We also had the papaya salad, which was refreshing and full of flavor. I especially loved their condiments and dipping sauces -- they give you plenty of options to customize the spice level, and the dips were absolutely amazing. For the main dishes, we had the pineapple curry and spicy eggplant, both with shrimp, and they were honestly so, so good. Every dish was packed with flavor, rich, comforting, and satisfying. Definitely something you won't regret ordering! Lastly, their restroom was very clean, which says a lot about how well they maintain the restaurant overall -- from front to back. The staff were also amazing: very nice, polite, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. Highly recommend if you're looking for flavorful Thai food and a cozy dining experience!

The shrimp and chicken fried rice is also a must. The staff are bubbly and friendly both on the phone and in person. The restaurant has a beautiful Thai vibe with artifacts, heavy wooden tables, and the signature elephant decor. A great spot all around.

    This place is super yummy!!…read more We were in Vallejo last weekend for a specialty dog show, and it was the end of a long day. I was craving Thai food and found this place while looking through Yelp. The prices and the food looked great, so we quickly headed over to Thai Place to fix our growling stomachs. Thai Place is a tiny restaurant but with a cozy atmosphere. We were greeted and seated immediately upon entering. We arrived around an odd time of the afternoon, so the restaurant was pretty empty, save for a few patrons finishing up their meal. I hadn't had curry in a long time, so I went with the pumpkin red curry with pork, while my husband chose the crispy chicken herb fried rice. For our appetizer we went with a potato curry puff (basically a curry empanada). I didn't order a Thai tea as it was later in the day and I didn't want to be bouncing off the walls that night, but from what I saw, the Thai tea looked good and I made it a point to try it next time we were in the area. Our appetizer arrived pretty quickly, and it was steaming hot. The cucumber salad on the side was delicious and cut the richness of the curry puffs beautifully. We devoured every last bite. Our entrees were next to arrive, and the portion sizes were pretty big! We hadn't eaten all day, but if we had had lunch, I feel like we wouldn't have been able to finish our food. The curry was delectable with a deep, bold flavor and the pumpkin was cooked perfectly. The pork was tender and the rice was soft and fluffy. My husband's crispy chicken was breaded beautifully and the fried rice underneath was flavorful. He also enjoyed the dipping sauce for the chicken. He took a small box of leftovers back to our Airbnb to enjoy later that evening. For the quality of the food we enjoyed, the price point of Thai Place is definitely hard to beat. There aren't many selections of good food in Vallejo, and I'm super glad we found this hidden gem. Our server was also very attentive and came by often made sure that our waters were filled and the food was up to our liking. I'd love to return the next time we are in the area for a dog show, and definitely recommend Thai Place for anyone who needs their Thai food fix!

This place is located in a small multi tenant shopping center located near the entrance of Hiddenbrooke with ample parking-so that was nice. This restaurant is for sure a local restaurant that serves the Hiddenbrooke community with most of their patrons being locals from the community.That was what we found upon arrival,most of the customers did seem to be locals in for a quick lunch. I would describe this place as an Asian fusion restaurant.-the depth of their menu was surprising-like "Cheesecake Factory-esque" level depth of menu.Their sushi menu was many pages and I hadn't even planned on getting sushi but after looking at this menu,I had to try something-so went with a simple Spicy Tuna Roll ($12.95). Off the Thai menu we decided to go with the Trio Meat Fried Rice ($20.95) Virgin Drunken Noodle ($18.95) Pad See U ($16.95) and Drunken Noodle ($16.95) Well I don't consider myself an expert when it comes to Asian fusion but I've had it more than a handful of times-so I can say with confidence that the food here was pretty good- very tasty-the Virgin Drunken Noodles were Interesting due to their use of glass noodles-the beef in that dish was seasoned well.I ordered my Drunken Noodles spicy and for that they delivered,quite a spicy dish.The Pad See U had really good veggies on it-very tasty and snappy. The Spicy Tuna Roll was pretty standard-the highlight being I somehow got my mother to try sushi for the 1st time by eating a piece of this sushi roll-she didn't hate it which I think is a pretty good review from a 73 year old Native American woman trying sushi for the 1st time. In closing,if u ever find yourself out in the Vallejo or Hiddenbrooke area and you want to give a small local business a try-this place is a pretty good choice-with a menu this big,your bound to find something on there that will make you happy. PS....I forgot to say I really enjoyed the house hot sake-pretty good flavor and perfect item to warm you up in this cold winter times we are in.

The restaurant even gave me a few extra take out containers to use as bowls/plates & utensils for that hungry hotel dining experience! Price wise, it's Napa adjacent. Our 5 items with tip were just under $120. The only downside, and I DO NOT think this is a direct reflection on the restaurant, is the card we used for our order was hit with 11 pre-auths for that amount. I think this is their 3rd party ordering service, Menufy, which I'd never used prior to this order. For those following along, that totaled over $1k hold on funds.
