I've been going to Thai Chili for a while now and it's one of my go-to spots in the area. The panang curry is my favorite. It's rich, creamy, and always comes out tasting right. The spicy beef salad is another one I order often. It's fresh, has a good kick, and the flavor is on point every time. The staff has always been kind and attentive, and the place feels clean and comfortable. It's one of those places I keep coming back to because I know exactly what I'm getting. Solid food, good people, and a consistent experience every time. read more

We ordered take out for a family party and some of the dishes were Shrimp Pan Thai, Ginger Fish, Orange Chicken, and Beef Salad. The flavor of the dishes tasted wonderful, many different flavors. My only minor complaint on the food was the sauce and the ginger fillets were not separated which caused the fish fillet after taking it home to be soggy and not crispy. I realize my party should have asked for the sauce and fish to be separated but usually when we order this dish to go the management would separate them. We will have to inform them next time. Service was good. The owner was attentive, patient, and gave me my to go order on time. The place was busy but the vibe when you entered was inviting. I would bring my friends and family back to this place. read more

One of my favorite local Thai spots. Tom kha soup is wonderful! I've had over the years Pad Thai, orange chicken, garlic and pepper chicken, yellow curry, summer rolls, chicken fried rice... Never been dissatisfied. Love their lunch specials as well. read more

This place had good food but sadly i've had two family members get sick from this place including myself on three different occasions. I will not be coming back here something's just not right .... I don't not recommend at all .... your taking a chance of getting sick read more

Dinner well served here! Not too busy on a Sunday evening. Came about an hour and a half before closing time! Love the Pad Thai ... I could finish the whole plate by myself but I had to share!! Ordered the Chicken Broccoli which was rich in flavor but broccoli were too hard for me. I wish they were cooked a little bit more for tenderness!!! The rest of the family ordered THAI CHILI ROASTED DUCK MONGOLIAN BEEF Three Ways Fish Can't finish dinner without sticky rice and mango!!! Was so delish .... Slices of ripe Mangoes complimented the sweet salty sticky rice !!! I will definitely come back to have Pad Thai and Pad Si IU read more

Thai Chili has always had good food and service and the ambiance is very basic. The reason for the average rating is simply, their prices far exceed their portions. They disguise the portion sizes with their serving dishes, very sad.! A suggestion..increase your portions! read more

The food is always fresh and they are quick. I like to order over the phone and they usually take 20 Minutes to prepare my meals. The eggrolls are delicious. The place always looks clean when I go in for the pickup. read more

The food was awesome. The pad Thai was too sweet for me. Everything else that we had was amazing. Definitely going there again.

Delicious and authentic Thai food in Calimesa. Great balance of flavors, and good serving portion. The waitresses are polite and patient. Definitely recommend Pad Thai, Pad see ew and combination fried rice. Always consistent each time we have gone. read more

Always excellent ! Chicken green curry is BOMB ! Chicken Saté is great ! Looking forward to returning soon.

Tried calling several times to place a take out order, and got no answer. I walked in to place an order, and informed them that I tried calling, and they said they had no calls come in. Ordered two entrees for $32 plus tip, and was given a buzzer and told to wait until it went off. I patiently waited in my car for almost AN HOUR. The buzzer never went off, they never called me when they had my phone number for the order. I walked in asking if my food was done, only to be told it's been sitting on the counter (for however long). I get home, our food is now cold, soggy, and the portions are ridiculously small for the price. Overall really disappointed with the experience. The Pad Prik King was delicious though, but you only get like 6 pieces of meat. read more

The best Thai! My work orders from here 5-6 times a month (and for years!) and it has never disappointed. The food is always fresh and flavorful. Favorites include: Summer rolls (the green sauce is SO good!) Egg rolls Thai boat beef noodle soup Orange chicken Cashew chicken Pad Kee Mow beef (get mild if you don't like spicy) Yellow curry Tom Kha soup My coworkers all love the Pad Thai (I think too sweet) and the pineapple fried rice as well. Their prices are great and the portions are good. I eat at Mu and Benjerong in Redlands sometimes but I totally prefer Thai Chili (plus Mu is crazy expensive!) The parking is fine, sometimes you have to park far away in the lot and walk but it's not that far. We get it to go and they always have the order correct and ready what it's supposed to. Friendly staff too!!! read more

Amazing Lunch Special and Amazing Flavor at an Amazing Price! Thai Chili is a diamond in the rough, located in a quaint shopping center in Calimesa. As new residents of Yucaipa, my wife and I wanted to find somewhere new to eat at. Thai Chili didn't disappoint. The restaurant is constantly busy, yet the service is solid. Food comes out quick and the flavor rivals any of the local Thai places we've tried in the inland empire! Must try: Tom Kha Soup, Pad Thai, Pineapple Curry, Yellow Curry and Thai Tea read more

Dry noddles and hardly any meat. No way the pad Thai is fresh. Do yourself a favor and drive to Yucaipa or Redlands for better Thai food. Supported this place long enough and I just can't anymore. read more

This is a good local spot. We got there not long after opening and it was already packed. That's always a good sign. This was my husband's first time trying Thai food and he fell in love. He loved the variety of sauces. However, take heed, because many sauces cost extra to try on the side. I'm a Thai beginner so I'm pretty boring with my lunch special of beef and broccoli. The food was fresh and light. Service was fast and efficient. We will definitely return to try more dishes. Pro tip: Come Monday-Friday for the lunch special, it comes with a light soup and salad so you're sure to leave full. read more

My family and I absolutely love this place--it's become one of our go-to spots for Thai food. The food is always delicious, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we've tried has been consistently good, which keeps us coming back. One thing I really appreciate is how accommodating and friendly the staff are. Whether we're dining in or taking our time to decide what to order, they're always patient and attentive without being overbearing. The servers are super chill and make you feel right at home. The ambience is cozy and inviting, with a relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for both casual dinners and small family celebrations. It's one of those places where you can sit back, enjoy your meal, and not feel rushed. This is actually my mom's favorite Thai restaurant, and she's picky about her food--so that says a lot! If you're looking for great Thai food with a welcoming atmosphere and consistently good service, I'd definitely recommend this spot. read more

Excellent and authentic Thai food. This is a family owned restaurant that prides itself on serving the best quality meats and seafood. Although the dishes are traditional, they are infused with time-tested and honored family recipes. Additionally, the cleanliness of the premises is to be commended. The servers are Thai and augment the authenticity of the culinary experience. I highly recommend this restaurant as I have experienced Thai food in many different US cities and around Europe and Australia. read more

Food was delicious!!! We had the pad Thai, orange chicken, fried rice and yellow curry and we were very impressed! Atmosphere was very cozy and comfortable! Service was a little rushed and not super welcoming but other than that a great experience! read more

Thai Chili - Pad Thai, orange chicken, yellow curry, fried rice - Thai Near Me - Calimesa, California

I recall trying Thai Chili the first time we moved into the area nearly 7 years ago and forgot why we haven't returned until now. Decided to give it another shot and sure GLAD we did! Food is excellent and is purely authentic Thai food - nothing fancy, no twists, no surprises, and not trying to mix and match multiple Asian styles. Just simply delicious Thai food! Excellent service, friendly staff, ambience is great for any setting if you decide to dine here, environment is wonderful for any occasion, and prices are standard (given inflation all around). Parking is plenty as it's a shared Plaza space, but can get quite hectic during rush hour. We typically get food to go and they package it nice and sturdy to avoid any spillage (so far). Every single item ordered this go round we absolutely loved - pineapple fried rice, papaya salad, chicken panang curry, Tom yum soup with shrimp (probably will get mild spicy next time, family couldn't handle the heat but I thoroughly enjoyed it!), pad thai, thai iced tea, and fried banana with coconut shavings (never cared about this dish until now). Having been to Thai land a few years ago, we're very particular about these main dishes and, thankfully, Thai Chili doesn't disappoint! Their authentic dishes are a generous reminder of all the Thai delicacies embedded into our memories. Next round, hoping to try their spicy eggplant and steamed fish (if available). My wife and I have different tastes and preferences, but this time we agreed on every single dish - we craved for more! Love to see having local restaurants having some competition - more choices within a few minutes from home without having to drive for hours! I'll go off the limb to stay that Thai chili and Yuthaipa are top Thai food competitors in the area. If I were to select one (although both are incredibly wonderful), it'd have to be Thai Chili. Highly recommended food spot for both dine in and dine out! read more

I wouldnt go back.... food wasn't bad but there are better places in town . The bigger issue was the cost per portion size $30 for a tiny cup of chicken curry and 4 wontons. read more

Came here for lunch. Was greeted promptly and seated. We ordered 3 of the lunch specials which came with salad and soup. Everything was delicious. Will definitely be paying another visit. read more

Took approximately 20min to be greeted and another 10 to be seated but it is the weekend after valentines. Food was really good. Service after being seated was pretty good as well. Dim lighted area but appeared clean and cozy. I would recommend this place and plan on returning. read more

We got take out from them for the first time and loved it. We will definitely return.

Outside of Thailand, this is the best Thai food I have had. The seasoning and flavors danced through my mouth. We had BBQ Pork Noodles (dry), Chicken Chow Mien, Egg Rolls, two Tsing Tao Beers and fried bananas with coconut. All for $57.38 plus a $12.00 tip. It was well worth the money. The service was good for being the lunch hour. Serving sizes were huge. read more

Delicious food and service was wonderful. We came in right before closing and they still sat us down and didn't rush us.

I had dinner here on Lunar New Year 2023. It's located in an outdoor shopping center with a somewhat large parking lot. The restaurant is moderate in size and modern in decor. The vibe was casual and relaxed. Parking was easy as the lot and restaurant were fairly empty. Seating and ordering was quick. The menu boasted a large selection. Most items had a choice of chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, tofu and vegetables. I was relieved there were so many vegetarian options. We ordered the summer rolls with tofu, Sweet and Sour Pork, Pad Si Iu, Garlic Tofu and brown rice. Everything arrived in a timely manner, was in good portion, was plated well and was very tasty. The flavors and spicing were delicious. If you like garlic you'd probably like the one of their garlic dishes. The garlic in the tofu plate was quite strong although the sauce was a bit watery for me. Service was outstanding. The waitress was friendly and helpful. The two gender specific, single user restrooms were modern, spacious and clean. I will definitely visit again. If not for the food, then to see the adorable outdoor cat patron. :) read more

We were stuck in traffic did hours trying to get home on Coachella weekend. (No we didn't go to Coachella but we had a work trip planned on an unfortunate weekend.) We had stretched the family to the limit and needed something that wasn't too far off the freeway and more substantial than fast food. A search on Yelp led us here and we're glad that it did! Service was quick and easy. Seriously our food was done with 10 minutes of ordering. Everything was made fresh with what seemed like quality ingredients. We got: Pad See Ew - This was flavored well and the noodles were the perfect texture. There was plenty of chicken and bok Choy to fill out the dish. Thai Fried Rice - It was what you would expect and flavored well. Again the chicken was plentiful. Egg Rolls - These were crispy and light with just a little bit of vegetable filling Orange Chicken - This was our least favorite. It has a strong orange find flavor. However we did like the texture. All in all it was the perfect respite for our long drive. I'm glad we chose this over some of the other choices in the area. read more

beef salad is so ridiculous, one of the best things i've ever eaten. service is great, they also have yummy mock meat that is delicious!

Great pad Thai. Good service. My husband enjoyed his scallops too. Overall a good choice for a restaurant.

Had the orange chicken and it was a bit bitter. What I think you should do is put in less orange peel, cuz that's what makes it bitter. Please try and thank you. read more

Don't come here unless you want to wait a long time to be seated or greeted. This isn't the first time this has happened. No work ethnic here... very tight space also, sitting close to others. read more

I love their food, my hubby loves fried wontons, n my favorite is d duct curry. We usually call in for our orders , we need to try their fried bananas read more

I used to go here quite often. My last time there was when COVID-19 had ended and they were allowing few people to dine in. I went to get take out. After I ordered, the lady told me to wait outside. I didn't say anything and went outside. After 30 minutes when they didn't call me I went to check how much longer. They hadn't even started my order but she said it will be ready in 15 minutes. Went in after 15 minutes, still haven't started my order. Meanwhile customers are dining in and leaving. Told the lady don't forget it and left. Never went back. Lousy service. I really miss Ranu Thai in Loma Linda. They used to treat my daughter and I like family. read more

Thai Chili - Thai Near Me - Calimesa, California

We came through for dinner. It was fairly busy, but we were seated after a 10 minute wait. Our server was really friendly and checked on us often, despite her section being packed. We decided to order a few dishes and split them up, family style (party of 3). We got the pad kee mow with tofu, the Thai fried rice with tofu, and the orange chicken substituted with tofu. Our food came out pretty quick and everything looked delicious! The serving sizes were generous, and we were all full by the end of dinner. All of the food was delicious! The pad kee mow had a little bit of spice, the fried rice went well with the spicy sauce they provided, and the orange chicken had such a fresh flavor that really set it apart from other savory orange dishes (like the Panda Express orange chicken). Had a really great dinner here, and highly recommend coming by for a good meal! Also recommend their Thai ice tea! read more

We've been wanting to have Thai food and heard about this place. Let me tell you it is a cute restaurant. Our server, Jennifer was so nice and always made sure that Kenny didn't run out of soda.

Looking forward to going back again to try their lunch specials. read more
