    Drunken noodles

    Another great success. Food delicious and mouth watering. Ordered drunken noodles, and several fried rice, Thai tea. ALL YUM! They are fast and I don't know young lady's name but she's always so bubbly and pleasant to talk to. Thank you!!

    This was the best fried rice ive ever had i also had the pad thai noodles very delicious! i forgot to take a picture, this is my new thai place. they had two big families while we were there and i feel like the food came out in a good amount of time and the food came out super hot ! the servers were very friendly! Highly recommend

    Quick dinner and delicious flavors is how I would explain this restaurant. You know it is a great establishment when you see people coming in constantly on a Thursday night both for seating and pick up. Plenty of space and seating for large groups, we had a party of 7, prices are fair, food order was exactly as ordered , staff is friendly, but food is phenomenal and so flavorful! The menu is huge with plenty to choose from, so no shortage of options. If I am ever back in the area I would definitely return and don't let the strip mall space fool you.

    Crispy pork noodle.  Yum!

    We were spending the night in Indio and looking for a good place to have dinner. We arrived at 5 PM on a Sunday night. The restaurant was about half full. We were quickly greeted and seated in a booth and provided water and menus. We ordered a spring roll, which came out quickly and was hot and crispy. For our entrées, we had the crispy pork belly noodle, and the ginger stir-fry with the duck. Both of the meals were very good. We like how so many of the meals come with your choice of meat. The duck was good but did have some chewy parts in it. I might try a different meat next time. Everything tasted fresh and came out quite hot. The staff is friendly. We would definitely come back here again. By the time we left around 6 PM, the restaurant was full! This is a popular place.

    C8 Pumpkin Curry - GF with soft tofu
    Thelma A.

    This is the best Thai restaurant in the desert. Hands down. Fresh, quality ingredients, and authentic flavours. So many vegetarian options, which makes me happy. And plenty of seafood options to make my parents happy! Their lunch special is great, but I love an entree sized portion of pumpkin curry at dinner. I've had takeout and dined in, and both are great experiences. The takeout is always wrapped up nicely and no spills! Love Thai Hot!!

    We came at around 7 pm on a Saturday and were seated quickly. It was a bit of a rush when we got there, so the service was a little slow. We ordered: - Appetizer Sampler. I really enjoyed trying some appetizers I haven't had before, like the fish cake and the shrimp cake. - House Salad. Good portion for the price. It came with 2 dressings, and I couldn't decide which I liked best. - Pad See Ew with Beef. It was a huge portion and came out steaming hot. The flavor was a little off from what I'm used to and the beef was kind of chewy, but the hubby really liked it. - Stir-fried Spicy Ginger with Shrimp. Also came out steaming hot but not as big of a portion and only 6 shrimp, though they were big. I was expecting more of a ginger flavor (there was none) but it was flavorful in a different way. Not very spicy despite the name. They have Thai cooking shows on the TV and there's plenty of seating in both booths and tables. They also had music playing. They serve alcohol if that's your thing.

    Absolutely delicious! This is a consistent must stop for us when in the area. The service is phenomenal and they do an excellent job making dishes spicier as needed. You can try anything on the menu and you can't go wrong. We're working our way through it and each dish has been as spectacular as the next!

    I came here with my mother and I felt that the food was very good! I eat a lot of thai and it felt quite authentic. The menu is quite extensive, but we ordered a lunch special of the pad see ew and I got a woon Sen which is the clear noodles and vegs. We also got a small tom yum soup with all the meat. The inside is spacious and good for groups for a date. There's even a photo of Justin Bieber on the wall so that's always cool if you are going to Coachella or something. The service was OK - there was only one waitress and I think only one cook and they were both busy with a a few customers at tables. So I get it they were busy and I was still taken care of. I would definitely be back and take my family here again when I'm in the area.

    First of all i was so exhausted stress and drained to the point that i can almost cry! But we ended in this resto! We are from LA so coming from 3 hours away and super hungry and was so surprised how delicious their food was! Probably best thai food we had. We had coconut fresh juice but we didn't get to take photos. The service is above and beyond i forgot her name. She looks young and pretty it was Saturday 4/11 at around 2:23 pm. I don't know how it started but i kinda mentioned about my wristband pass to Coachella event and i was so nervous that i thought i might have got scammed but thankfully i was able to get replacement for that. She was so helpful emphatic friendly and nice which is not part of her job! But yea! She was awesome! i just want to update her i did got in! And i appreciate her kindness! I am looking forward to eat here again whenever I'm in the area.

    Pumpkin curry
    Michael E.

    Pleasantly surprised at Thai Hot restaurant. It was out first time here and the food was prepared beautifully and served nicely. The atmosphere was comfortable and interesting with unique hanging decorations from the ceiling. I ordered Drunken Noodle. It was fantastic with a generous portion of chicken throughout and basil adding a great flavor. My wife ordered Pumpkin Curry and it was served in a beautiful copper bowl with handles. Sliced carrots, red bell peppers, chunks of fresh pumpkin. Definitely a place we'd visit again.

I always feel welcomed upon entering and the service is always great and attentive! The restaurant itself is spacious and easy to get around, with some TVs playing live games. We ordered the Tom-Yum soup and Pad Thai today. We usually order their Papaya Salad and Fresh Spring Rolls as our appetizers but we decided to order something new! The Tom-Yum soup is good, but I do believe it's missing some tart/sourness that you'd taste in other traditional Tom-Yum soups, however it's packed with lots of chicken and mushrooms, so that's an A+ in my book! And of course the star of the show, the Pad Thai. You can definitely taste the authenticity of this dish here, it's sweet, savory, nutty, and very aromatic! It was also nice and smoky, you can definitely tell that it was cooked on a wok. They are very generous with their portions as well. All in all, love this place, if you're ever craving Thai food, and you are nearby, My Thai should be on the top of your list :)

The restaurant is hard to find in the huge building and we ultimately had to ask directions but that's a minor detail.

One thing that gave me pause is you can smell cigarette smoke going through the main casino building but thankfully the restaurant air was fresh with no detectable smoke odor. I suspect a positive air-flow system which is good. The restaurant interior is roomy, clean and pleasant with Oriental style decor which is nice. The staff were warm and inviting right from the person that greeted us at the entrance, throughout our meal and just as gracious upon our exit. We were there during the lunch menu which of course is limited but plenty of appealing choices. I ordered Twice cooked pork which though I have made myself I don't recall ever ordering it in a restaurant.
