    N-3. Pad Kee Mow
    Leanne C.

    The food was sooo good. Best Pad Kee Mow I've had in a while. I also highly recommend the tofu spring rolls. The peanut sauce was amazing. The waitresses were very friendly and welcoming.

    C-2. Red Curry

    Spectacular curry! Lots of protein and nice veggies in the curry. Prompt service. I don't know why this place isn't packed.

    I have been to Thai restaurants around the country and THIS may be my favorite. Amazing service with a peaceful and welcoming environment. An an incredible, authentic, and DELICIOUS experience. WILL be coming back. If you're in Fresno or Clovis you must make the trip.

    Apprtizers- coconut shrimp  , pot stickers and a cucumber salad.

    I live out of town and come by whenever I'm in town visiting family, this place is so good and the food is so comforting. We ordered several different things from the menu and everything was delicious. The staff are very friendly and helped us select a couple of dishes. This is one of the best Asian places in Madera by far.

    I went to this place tonight 3/6/25 with my grandma. My grandma treated us to dinner and it was so delicious! Very flavorful and filling. I ordered chicken Thai fried rice and vegetable egg rolls. My grandma ordered the Red Curry and coconut shrimp. I was so happy to be out at dinner with my granma tonight. This place is so cute! Only thing I wish it had is more seating space.

    Pad Thai & Hawaiian rice.

    Love the food, it's very authentic and tastes great. They are very friendly and the food came out fast.

    10/5/24 Getting lunch! Ordered their chicken & tofu Pad See Ew, extra spicy and their Poh Pia Sod with Shrimp. The worker was kind and said it would be ready in 15 min. Walked in to pick it up shortly later. Let worker know and it was ready and waiting. Worker was very kind. I paid for the order and it was handed over with well wishes! Great! Restaurant is very nice! Calm and low key. Bar tables and chairs along with lower ones. Lunchtime! Order split! Chicken Tofu Pad See Ew portion was Fantastic! Full over flavor with fresh veggies and plenty of chicken & tofu included! Just Great! Nice, spicy kick too! Poh Pia Sod with shrimp 1/2 was GREAT! Really Graz and DELICIOUS and the sauces included made it even better!! Mother said her lunch was really Great & flavorful! Leftovers for both too! Great service & Really Great lunch! They deserve every star! Highly recommended!

    The flavor is authentic Thai . Owner is very friendly . Fast service . We ordered tom kha , pad see ew and red curry . I've been to Bangkok and Pattaya and I could say the food is superb and the serving size of one order is good 2 person .

    This place is definitely a hidden gem and now will be added as a daily favorite. The location is easy to find, restaurant is decorated beautifully and customer service was excellent. AND THE FOOD? Amazing. Everything was so flavorful and portion sizes were perfect. We will definitely be back, they are on door dash as well.

    Dumplings, cucumber salad, chicken satay, Thai fried rice and coconut shrimp.

After moving out here, I finally gave this Milpitas spot a shot--and wow... this pho smacked me right back to childhood. I ordered my usual pho tai, large bowl, plus extra noodles because I believe in abundance. The noodles were fresh fresh--I can tell because when I spread them apart, they don't clump together like they've been napping in the pot all day. These noodles were awake, alert, and being stirred. Respect. The broth? Dangerous. Comforting. Spiritual. I finished the entire bowl like I was personally challenged by the chef. Cold weather + this broth = therapy. Service: I called ahead because I'm polite and didn't want to be that person showing up an hour before closing. They were super kind and said it was totally fine. You order and pay up front, which I loved--sat down and 10 minutes later my pho showed up like it knew I was hungry. Pro tip: speak up when ordering drinks--they forgot my soda, but honestly... the pho was so good I forgot I even wanted one. Ambiance: Plenty of seating, nicely spaced, and the place is CLEAN clean. The second someone leaves, the table is wiped down like it owes them money. Cleanliness is next to godliness, and this place is clearly blessed. Final Thoughts: I do wish they stayed open past 9, but that's my only complaint. Honestly, I'm kind of glad it's not as packed as it should be--more room for me to sit, sip, and slurp in peace. Chef, if you're reading this: you understood the assignment. I'll definitely be back.

We ordered the pork egg rolls you get five, and they were really good , nice and crunchy just how I like them. We also tried the yellow chicken curry, which had really good flavor and was more on the soupy side. The chicken pad Thai had good flavor, and of course I had to try the basil rice, which I really liked. Overall, it was a good experience. If you're in the area and craving Thai food, this is a place worth trying.

    I have really enjoyed the authentic flavors from this small restaurant near Fresno State. The…read moredishes showcase the hallmark balance of Thai cuisine--sweet, sour, salty, and spicy--all working together in harmony. The Pad Gra Prow (Thai basil stir-fry) stood out for its savory, spicy, and aromatic profile. I ordered it with ground chicken, my usual choice, and it came slightly crispy yet juicy, paired with a generous amount of peppery Thai basil. The rich umami sauce--built from soy, oyster, and fish sauce--coated the meat well, and it was served over rice with a crispy-edged fried egg. I prefer a runnier yolk, and the dish leaned a bit salty, but the bold, spicy flavors still made it a winning combination. The pad prik king was another highlight--a vibrant "dry" curry stir-fry with an intense salty-sweet heat and a fragrant citrus aroma from shredded kaffir lime leaves. I ordered it with beef, which was coated in a thick, concentrated red curry paste without coconut milk. The result was a glossy, deeply flavorful dish with a savory, aromatic, and fiery profile. A great version of this dish strikes a balance between a sharp salty punch and a subtle underlying sweetness, and this one delivered. The green beans were bright, crisp-tender, and fresh, though I would have liked a more generous portion. The kaffir lime leaves added a fragrant, citrusy lift that cut through the richness of the curry paste. The Thai crispy pork belly (Moo Krob) has been my favorite so far. It perfectly captured the defining contrast of crispy, golden-brown skin with tender, juicy meat and rendered fat. The dish was deeply savory and aromatic, with a subtle smoky undertone that added depth. Overall, the dishes are well-balanced and vibrant, showcasing fresh ingredients, bold herbs, and contrasting textures. Each plate reflects the complexity of Thai cooking, with a thoughtful interplay of flavors. The co-owner, originally from northern Thailand, brings extensive experience from running several popular restaurants in Thailand--this being her first in the United States--and that authenticity clearly comes through in the food. Thai Taste offers a menu heavy with vegan and vegetarian options, and every dish is made to order. The space itself is small, with a handful of indoor tables, some outdoor seating along the walkway, and counter seating facing the kitchen. A small cart in the center displays imported Thai snacks like spicy cookies and peanut brittle, adding a nice cultural touch. Located in the Bulldog Plaza shopping center near Fresno State, it is an ideal spot for students and anyone looking for a quick, flavorful meal without sacrificing authenticity.

For lunch, I opted for the Panang curry with steamed veggies, and a side of pad Thai. My wife ordered a chicken salad with peanut dressing. Ordering is a little awkward. This place is set up for takeout, although there are a few tables spread throughout if you decide to eat there. Truth be told, the dining room is sad. You will see a few tables, and a few pictures on the wall. There is no music playing , and there is no staff -other than the owners and their son (Siam). I get it! Reducing overhead in today's economic environment makes a lot of sense. Restaurants are running lean and mean these days. For now, my rating stands at 4 stars. I enjoyed my lunch and visit with Siam. I'll need to try more menu items to determine if I need to bump my rating up to 5 stars. Next time, I'm going to trust the owner to cook something for me that will change my life. I want a dish so tasty that I will forget all the other Thai places that I have previously tried. My main recommendation would be to spruce up the dining room to make it more inviting to dine in. I would also suggest to redesign the menu to include pictures , or get one of those monitors that runs a slide show of all of the wonderful dishes to choose from. I will be back with intent on trying 4 or 5 new dishes to get a better grasp of the full menu.

You'll then have to wait to be seated at the register. I think this set-up is kind of awkward but hey, at least they have cute sidewalk seating. There are plenty of tables and long benches to sit at and the restaurant itself feels clean and well-lit! The staff are super helpful also. Tried the House Special Beef Pho and it was pretty tasty! You do have the option to order your dish with regular thin noodles, flat noodles, or egg noodles. The broth is basil-y and the flavor has great depth. They have a self-serve station for condiments where you can grab some chili oil, jalapeños, bean sprouts, and lime. My favorite thing about this restaurant is that I don't feel too bloated after eating here (compared to other pho restaurants). Been enjoying this restaurant and eating here at least once a week!

My memory is shot. I don't want to be handing out 5 stars so easily but I think they deserve it. The restaurant is very clean, and I love the little Asian lanterns they have, all different, above each table. Plenty of seating. When we got there (a little after 5), there was only one other table occupied... by the time we left (6:30), every table was nearly taken. Our waitress, as well as the other on the floor, were both very welcoming and friendly. They handled the service remarkably as a team. The fact that they were a packed house and still were very attentive with us, checking how we're doing, checking on our water refills... these are the little things I appreciate most (and, of course, good food). I got the Pho with the Fatty Brisket, my friend got just the Steak Pho. They have a bar against the wall with all garnishes you may need to grab what you'd like. This is pretty smart... It saves them from waste. Instead of giving people items they may not use-- they would just grab what they'd like themselves. My friend grabbed her goodies, I prefer mine as is. To me, if your broth is good and doesn't require me to flavor it... I'll eat it just like that (unless I feel like adding spice). I've only ever been to a few other Pho places where I had to season up the broth myself...definite no no for them. All my friends who have gone out to eat Pho with me know I eat it just how I get it. Pho from my Mama is a different story though... I put the works (not because it's not flavorful) but, it's just different. Moving on... They also have a Teazona in their establishment. I've tried a few different drinks in the past but came to regularly deciding on the Tiramisu Milk Tea (no flan for me, light boba). Make sure to shake it well. You can also let them know your preference on the level of sweetness. We both got this tonight and it nearly tipped me over on the full scale. Couldn't finish it. Everything was really good though. Pho was the perfect choice for this weird, gloomy weather we've been having. The price is a bit up there but that seems to be the norm everywhere nowadays. But-- for the portion, the quality, and the service? Worth it.

At this point, I think they're being shipped from overseas. Food quality? Down bad. Prices? Up like gas. I ordered the Thai boat special, and the "fried" pork belly was basically 99% fat, 1% disappointment--and not even fried. It tasted like pho that gave up on life. We also ordered pork belly with sticky rice... or at least we thought we did. After 40 minutes and reminding three different servers, it never came. I wasn't sure if I was dining or participating in a scavenger hunt. And the restroom? No hand soap, no paper towels--just vibes. Apparently cleanliness is optional now. This used to be my spot, but I won't be back anytime soon. Maybe I'll return when the service improves... or when my pork belly finishes its long journey back from wherever it went.
