    Sorry it took me 10 days to write this review, but I absolutely needed to write one. We went here for dinner and it was wonderful. The food was great, and the prices are reasonable. But that's not what this review was about. When we got here, the place was hopping. People were waiting for takeout orders, and it was pretty busy with sit-down customers too. And helping all the tables was ONE waitress. Yet, despite the stress, she was on top of it, prompt, and friendly. I'm not good with names, but she deserves a raise! We'll definitely be back.

    Mark and I went here today for lunch, with Polly, Karen, Diane and Lucja. We ate outside, it was about 1:00 pm, great afternoon, mild temperatures and was quiet and peaceful. Not much traffic out. I ordered the Fresh salad rolls with shrimp, Polly ordered the same (vegetarian), Mark and Lucja ordered the Pad Thai Noodles, Diane ordered the brown rice W/ Green Curry, Karen ordered the Pumpkin Curry. EVERYTHING was delicious and amazing. But first, we each had a salad, which comes with lunch orders. I always love their salad dressing. It's so good. It was our friends Birthday, they brought her the Fried Bananas. THE BEST dessert I've ever had at a Thai Restaurant. The staff were so kind, they all sang Happy Birthday to her, and made it extra special. That dessert was soooooooooo good, I'm ordering that EVERY time I'm there. Friendly staff as usual. Our friend and owner, Vinnie, he's always so kind, friendly and gracious. Never misses a chance to welcome you and give ya a hug hello. Our waitress was an amazing young woman. She knew all of our orders without writing it down. Wonderful young woman. Don't miss out on eating the BEST Thai food anywhere. You won't be disappointed, no matter what you order.

    Thai House is one of those reliable spots I keep coming back to whenever I'm craving Thai food. The flavors are always on point, portions are satisfying, and everything tastes fresh and made with care. The absolute best thing to get here is the Pad See Ew--seriously SO good. The noodles are perfectly cooked, the sauce has that great balance of savory and slightly sweet, and everything comes together really well. It's comforting, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you're craving classic Thai comfort food. Service was friendly, and the food came out quickly, which made the whole experience smooth and easy. The vibe is casual and relaxed, perfect for a low-key lunch or dinner. Best for: Comfort food cravings, casual meals, or anyone looking for a solid Thai spot in Sacramento. Easy 5 stars from me--I'll definitely be back for that Pad See Ew again.

    It had been a few years since we ate at Thai House. We should not have waited so long! You don't go here for the ambiance, think of a diner for Thai food - you go for the flavor. We did a pretty wide sample: Beef Satay; Chicken Tom-Ka soup; Veggie PaNang curry; and Pork Pad Thai. THE PROS: The flavors are spot- on. Really liked the Tom-Ka. Unlike many Thai places, they don't ask you how "hot" you want it. To me all our food was just right spice wise. About a 4.5/10 on the Thai Hot scale. We often get it hotter, but these flavors were so good, it didn't seem necessary. If you want high-heat let them know up front. Good size portions-(which often Thai restaurants skimp on.) A few outside tables on a sidewalk patio for nice evenings. THE CONS: None of these are enough not to eat here, but to be fair, most places have a few. The overall ambience and decor are nothing to speak of. Boxes of supplies are stacked in the dining area. The background music, while definitely authentic, was, for me, a bit too upfront and noticeable. Also, while common, I wish they would remove the inedible aromatics- like the galanga, keifer leaf and lemon grass stalk - from the soup when it's served. BOTTOM LINE: The foods the thing, you won't be disappointed. If you are looking for fancy, get it to go and light a candle at home. Rating: 8/10

    W7. Spicy Eggplant Dinner
    Patricia J.

    We love this place. Tried nothing new last week--the spicy eggplant. I asked for it to be not too spicy and they gave me something with the perfect level spicy. It was so beautiful and tasty. The service is always friendly and we love this casual place.

    This is a nice little spot for Thai comfort food. There about -0 or 12 tables, all with fresh roses on them, which was a nice touch. There's just one guy running the dining room and the door dash orders. But he was attentive and food came out quick. The fresh rolls were fantastic and well balanced, no chewiness of the wrappers. The peanut vinaigrette was sweet and just a little spicy. The pad Thai was fantastic! Sweet and cooked to the perfect doneness. The shrimp were not overcooked. The curry was very flavorful. The pineapple flavor permeated the entire dish and I've never had a pineapple curry quite like this one. Would highly recommend. The restaurant made it easy to adapt the entrees to the dietary restrictions we provided. I recommend sitting outside because if you sit inside, you'll smell every dish as it's being made and you'll end up ordering all of them. Also, the Tom Kha soup was one of the better ones I've found in Sacramento. Stop by and grab some soul comforting Thai food!

    First time to Thai House. Ambiance is small, clean, mediocre. You don't go there for the ambiance. But the service was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Excellent assortment of food choices. While there many people were picking up to go orders, so that may be the way to go. Regardless, definitely will eat there again or order take out. Our meals were as ordered and so good! Recommend!

    Chinese Zodiac Placements
    Jen L.

    It's a little strange that they have a Chinese Zodiac on the paper placemats at a Thai restaurant but whatever. They are still entertaining to read even though I have seen them a million times. The service was friendly as soon as we walked in the door. They quickly seated us and came by soon to take our order, and they checked on us during dinner. Everything we had was delicious and had really good flavor. The table of us four shared a large Tom Kha with Chicken, Fresh Shrimp Rolls, Pad Kee Mow with Chicken, Cashew Chicken with a side of White Rice, Panang Chicken Curry with a side of Brown Rice. Yummy yummy in my tummy. My son really enjoyed the rolls and Cashew Chicken which was not spicy and not too sweet. The Panang Curry had big chucks of chicken and veggies. I would've liked some of my spicy dishes to be spicier but at least they had Thai chiles available.

    Picked up takeout from Thai House. Two N1's and an order of fried chicken egg rolls. The pad see ew had that smoky, savory flavor we were hoping for, and the egg rolls had a solid crunch. You only get four egg rolls for $12, which felt a little steep for the portion. Food was still hot by the time we got home, which is always a plus with takeout. When I walked in, the woman at the front was polite, but one of the first things she said was, "How are you paying?" Kind of caught me off guard. Not a dealbreaker, just... notable. Good food, fast service, and we'll be back. Might just be ready with my card next time.

    Eggplant with chicken. Spicy and delicious!
    Lisa B.

    Really good Thai food! Came for lunch. One server gal was bustling. Wish there were more lunch specials. Ordered the $15 eggplant stir fry with chicken. Came with a small salad and a small serving of white or brown rice. Large portion, super fresh, tasty, authentic, spicy. Flavors were on point. There's an annoying ringing-- I think when a phone order or online order comes across? A bit annoying. Otherwise, delicious meal and would love to come back and try other dishes.

    Sadly I came back for this soup last night and it wasn't at all like last time. The broth was watery, it lacked that creamy coconut aspect and lacked flavor, I actually went back in to ask if there was anything I could add to make it better and the chef told me the problem was we "added too much" (my boyfriend and I like to add extra veggies/protein) so that's why the soup base was bland. He then handed me a bunch of some kind of spicy sauce that it no where near what I was needing because my soup was already spicy enough... I'm just super disappointed in this soup this time around. So due to the inconsistency and the lack of actual care to fix it from the chef I no longer recommend this.

    Pad kee mao with beef to go
    Joseph R.

    After 7+ yrs living in the area i decided to finally try the establishment for the first time. I ordered online to go a few minutes before they opened during a weekday. I originally planned to order a few food items but observed the cost was on the higher than what I'm accustomed to when ordering from Thai Restaurants throughout the years. This included fees for ordering online plus substituting for different proteins. Weary over the pricing, I just stuck with the pad kee mow (drunken noodles) and replaced their standard chicken with beef. From online order to having the food ready, it didn't take long at all (there was an estimated time of 45 minutes but it was ready in 10-15). Walking in to pick up the order I observed a nice, clean and spacious establishment - was promptly greeted and received my order. The food itself was pretty good - wasn't as spicy as I'd have hoped it to be. I'm knocking it a few stars mainly because for the amount I paid, I'd expected a bit more for the serving.I do however plan to come back and eat indoors and try a few other dishes in hopes that my first experience was due to ordering take out.

Place was packed during lunch because of the farmer's market on Saturday. We got the Hat Yai fried chicken, green curry, crab fried rice, beef satay, thai tea and Piak Sakoo (Sago Pudding w/ Young Coconut) The hat yai fried chicken is a must! It was so crispy and flavorful, especially with the sauce. The crab fried rice was also so good and paired nicely with everything. The green curry has a lot of vegetables and is a nice change from the regular red curry I usually get. The thai tea is just right, not too sweet. The most disappointing thing is the beef satay. I wanted to switch it up from the regular chicken satay but the beef satay was overcooked and chewy. It was quite inedible so that's the only thing I probably wouldn't get. The pandan sago was also so good. The sago being warm paired nicely with the coconut ice cream. Overall, I'm looking forward to going back to try new things.

The chicken satay was tender and flavorful, while the eggplant salad brought a nice mix of fresh, savory flavors. The chive appetizer cakes were another favorite and a great appetizer to share with the table. I also liked having several smaller dishes to try rather than sticking to just one thing. It's a great option if you're dining with family or friends and everyone wants to sample a little bit of everything. Rex Tip: If you're visiting on a Saturday, just an FYI, the farmers market runs right in front of the restaurant. Expect some nearby street closures, bigger crowds, and a little extra time getting around or finding parking. 5 ROARS from Focusaurus Rex

I asked if they could do something mild, but was told they don't offer that. I'm Indian and normally handle spice very well, so I was worried that "no spice" would be completely bland. I went with their lowest actual spice option: medium. Huge mistake. The first bite genuinely scared me. It tasted like someone had dumped an entire packet of chili directly into my mouth. My eyes immediately started watering, my mouth was on fire, and eating it was extremely uncomfortable. This wasn't a matter of me being sensitive to spice, the "medium" was insanely spicy. My friend, who is also South Asian and accustomed to spicy food, couldn't finish hers either. I politely told our waitress that the medium Pad Thai was far too spicy for me to eat. Her solution was to offer me sugar to pour over it. That sounded awful, so I declined. At that point I literally went on ChatGPT to figure out how I could salvage my meal. It suggested peanut sauce as one option to help tone down the heat, which sounded much more reasonable. I asked the waitress for some peanut sauce and was told I could have it for an additional charge. Considering I was only asking for it because their "medium" Pad Thai was practically inedible, I found that pretty disappointing. But I wanted to actually eat the food I had paid for, so I agreed. The peanut sauce helped slightly, but I basically had to eat a spoonful of peanut sauce with every single bite just to tolerate the Pad Thai. At that point, I wasn't enjoying dinner. The restaurant itself also felt very dirty. The floors looked like they desperately needed to be mopped, which made the overall experience even less appealing. Between the inedible food, the lack of any meaningful attempt to fix the problem, being charged extra for something I needed just to make the meal tolerable, and the cleanliness of the restaurant, I seriously considered leaving no tip. I ultimately did leave one, albeit reluctantly. Zero out of ten experience. I will absolutely never come back.

That it is customary in Sacramento. Ok then, what about to those that are elders or disabled who can't bring the plates? I was lucky I had few of my fam to help but there's no warmth to this owner. No one even checked on us at all! We would have left but we had to pay upfront before we found out we had to be the waitress. Food wasn't even worth it (papaya was bland, pad Thai was average). Update: owner replied to this post. Everything that she stated wasn't true at all. I asked why we have to bring all the stuff in and she insisted that it's customary in Sacramento-- she did NOT asked us at all or did we asked, the owner said it immediately when we got seated that we HAD to bring it in. Yes I was upset AFTER we were told to bring the plates and everything in; we just came back from a vacation so we were in a good mood). Please don't make it seem that you were innocent as you also keep mentioning that is how things are in Sacramento and asked where I was even from. Also, we would've been more understanding if we didn't give us an attitude from the start and told us to get our own plate and bring it back in. A word of advice: please hire more staff since that would give some politeness to ALL customers. If you were so busy, how would you even have the time to explain why you wanted us to do waitress work. Please, you straight up and said we have to pick up our our plate of foods WITHOUT any of the understaff part. Again, owner keep trying to make a costumer experience in the wrong since honest review will hurt her business. Never in my Yelp reviews owner is so against a bad review --this just verifies how the owner is very defensive and keeps justifying without taking accountability of what actually happened (like how we even know she was working alone since we're outside). Also, please don't make any assumptions, they're not my husband or daughter (we never mentioned this and how inaccurate the owner perspective is). Further customers, please be aware when you leave bad reviews, expect the owner to persist that you're in the wrong (like she did with other previous bad reviews).

I'm not sure if management or chef has changed but their food is not what I remembered from years ago. We initially ordered their tofu pad thai and gai yang and immediately noticed how pricey their menu was. They have a wall of specials and I remember being shocked that their orange chicken was $24. I didn't mind paying more than what I was used to for my pad thai because I remembered their food was delicious but I was shocked when my pad thai came out. It was literally drowned in sauce and looked like it was a bowl of noodle soup. I was still optimistic hoping that it tasted better than it looked but it just tasted like sweet rice noodle soup. I was hesitant to bring it up to the waitress after two bites but so glad I did because I would have hated myself if I left without saying anything. The waitress was kind and offered to remake the dish. Instead, I opted for something else because I was afraid to be disappointed again. I ordered their tofu drunken noodles since I've gotten it here before and remember it being tasty. I confirmed that the drunken noodle was going to be a dry noodle dish and thankfully it was. It was good but not the best I've ever had. My boyfriend had their gai yang which is a marinated grilled chicken dish. He said it was pretty dry without the sauce on the side but the sweet chili sauce provided was pretty tasty. It's probably not worth $26 given the how dry the chicken was and he said he would never order it again. Overall, the customer service was great and portions were good. I had to deduct 3 stars from my previous review as the food quality has significantly gone down in my experience and doesn't justify the high menu prices in my opinion.

It was quite dry and had a distinctly burnt flavor the first time it came out, it tasted like ash in my mouth. The chicken was rather burnt. The staff was friendly and kindly replaced it for me, but the burnt flavor remained. I think the pan they're using must have been burnt. I didn't think the yellow curry was notable. The thai tea is good. The restaurant itself is friendly and cozy. Water is from the tap.

    Thai Canteen has been around for all long as I can remember, before all the new, modern Thai spots…read morestarted popping up all over Midtown. There's a reason this original spot stuck around for so long.. consistent, delicious, and open late night! #25 Bamee Bphet Yang 5/5* Duck Egg Noodle Soup is why I come here! Thai Canteen is the ONLY Thai spot that makes this duck noodle soup. Noodles are so plump and springy like the texture of freshly made ramen noodles. The broth is intense in flavor, amped up by the honey roasted duck and has this slightly salty, sweet umami taste. If it weren't for the "No MSG" red letters stamped on the menu board, I would've thought this soup had some MSG. The flavor is THAT delicious where you can't really pinpoint where it's coming from. #24 Gkuay Dtlow Reur (Boat Noodles) 3/5* The thin pho Noodles were fresh and cooked perfectly al dente, but the soup itself was lacking that beefy richness. The broth was watered down and bland. #26 Pad Thai Noodles with Tofu 5/5* Good portion size that is shareable for two. The soft tofu is plump and soaked up the pad thai sauce well. There's just enough sauce without the dish being overly saucy. The flavor is richer and less sticky sweet than other Thai places, making this more savory with a just slight hint of tamarind sweetness. Happy Hour Eggs Over Rice 1/5* This popped up on the Happy Hour menu one time and it is exactly what the name says. Just an egg omlette over a mound of white rice. The egg was overcooked, dry, and lacked any flavor. Even at HH prices, this is a hard pass. The location and hours are so convenient smack in the middle of downtown. You order at the counter, choose any seat, and the food comes out fast. Water is self service. This makes for a good lunch spot if you're short on time but want a good cooked meal. They have both after work HH and late night HH. There's a small bar inside as well and patio seating on the side.

    We stopped here on our way to the Golden 1 Center amphitheater to see Tyler Childers, and it was a…read moregreat pre-show pick. The food was sooo good, the portions were huge, and the service was great. It's in a cute little neighborhood, and surprisingly not busy when we stopped in. They have highchairs and the staff was super friendly with our 1-year-old, which made things easy. All the beer options are on tap, and they're good ones. Will definitely return next time I'm in Sacramento!

    The Thai and Laotian food from here was pretty good!…read more My family and I shared the following dishes: -Thai Green Tea: Huge size! The drink was creamy and flavorful. Not too heavy. -Lao Sausage:: Meaty and I liked the flavor. It went well with the side sauce. I wish it came with more sticky rice though. -Chicken Larb: This was solid and I liked the tangy flavor. Portion size is pretty small though and only came with one cup of lettuce. -Lao Papaya Salad: Solid, but I've had better elsewhere. -Salmon Pad Thai: My favorite dish of the night! The best part were the salmon bites which were glazed in the sweet pad Thai sauce and had a crispy exterior and soft interior. Super delicious. -Khao Piak: Warm, thick, tangy, and comforting bowl of noodle soup. Overall, I enjoyed everything despite the smaller portion sizes for some of the dishes. The service here was pretty good and the interior was clean and cozy. Parking is street parking. A solid restaurant for Asian food in Sacramento.
