    Medium Thai tea. $7
    Jill A.

    Stopped in around 5:30 and was the only person sitting outside. It took quite some time to be served with water and a menu. Seems they're a bit short-staffed and door weren't prepared to be busy inside at that hour. The food was quite good. However, for $30 for a Thai iced tea and one small chicken dish I would have expected a bit more food. The stuff is very friendly and both the inside and outside are cozy. I'm just not that keen on spending that much money for a tiny dish.

    10/10 and will definitely be back! We decided to try a new (to us) thai food spot in Temecula and wow, it did not disappoint! Hidden in the target shopping center on rancho cal, next to the old UFC gym! We walked in, place is clean and tidy, staff is warm and welcoming. The vibe is cute, I love the fresh rose on each table. The menu is big, lots of tasty options to choose from! The thai tea with Boba is the best I've had! We went with the drunken noodles add chicken and the pad see ew added beef. Spice level 3 was perfect, however, id definitely do level 4 next time PLUS they bring 4 different spicy sauces to add to your plate. The food was next level - HOT, delicious and so so so savory and good! We are already wanting to go back & even more excited that we have leftovers tomorrow! Ps, the portions are enough to share! Great thai food in Temecula

    FIRST TIME here and it will definitely NOT be the last! First of all they open at 10am on Sunday :) so glad we don't have to starve until 11am for most other places to open and they have a very nice outdoor seating that is spacious and dog friendly... SONG of the DAY to play along to the YELP REVIEW: CUPID by fiftyfifty... BOAT NOODLES: 9/10 Big portions and flavorful noodles and broth. It did come a little sweet but, I was able to enhance or fix it by adding some vinegar, fish sauce and chili... THAI/LAO SAUSAGE:10/10 had the perfect flavor and the complete side condiments that consisted of GINGER, CABBAGE, RED ONIONS, THAI CHILI & PEANUTS. This dish is usually consumed with BEER... KRAPOW: 9/10 The flavor was all there! The only point taken off is for the absence of smokiness from the heat of the wok while stir frying... CURRY PUFFS or EMPANADAS: 10/10 Very freshly made and also very rare to find in this part of town... They use garden FRESH BASIL, kafir leaves and banana leaves that are grown right in front of the store!! SERVICE: A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Everyone was so nice, friendly and welcoming. PARKING: PLENTY and there's no need to fight for it at any time of day! ROCK ON THAI KITCHEN!!!!!

    Absolutely loved this mango shrimp salad! The mangoes and shrimp were fresh, sweet and perfectly balanced with the savory and tango flavors. Every bite was refreshing, crisp and delicious. Great portion price and beautifully presented. Definitely something that I will order again.

    Thai Kitchen has been my go to for Thai Food ever since I moved to Menifee in 2019. Love their cashew chicken, crispy pork belly and their mango sticky rice!!! Vina always provides friendly and excellent service

    TEMECULA's THAI JEWEL! Thai Kitchen is a hidden treasure in the heart of Temecula. The restaurant is reliable when my family and I need a place to eat asap and it's a go-to for a reason. The ingredients are fresh and each item on the menu is authentic. I've tried Thai food up in the Bay Area that doesn't even compare to Thai Kitchen. What should you try? If you're a Thai enthusiast or beginner I say the best dish you can try to test the temperature of place like this is the Pad See Ew. It's fried noodles with tofu, veggies, and a special sauce. I LOVE it, it's my favorite dish and they give you a hearty portion. The service at Thai Kitchen is great, the servers are a little shy, but well-mannered and pretty attentive. The ambiance is incredibly calming and soothing, they have gentle music playing in the background at all times. It's generally very quiet inside. If you need a little more noise, there's an outdoor patio with tables.

    Thai Kitchen is a longstanding hidden gem in town, and one of the best Thai restaurants around. It's tucked away in a corner of the Target shopping center, in a mini jungle they've created around the entrance. Just look for all the plants. The interior has nice ambiance, mostly booths and not too large, not too small. It's family owned and the employees are friendly. The food is yummy, some of my faves are the pad see ew and the fresh spring rolls. The spring rolls are the uncooked kind, larger with rice wrappers and full of fresh veggies and good stuff. I often get two for a perfect lunch portion. The peanut sauce is amazing. Thai Kitchen is one of my standbys. I highly recommend it.

    I've always driven past this place but never went inside; I'm glad I changed that. The workers are so nice and the decorations make the restaurant feel cozy and warm. The food was fresh and very delicious. I ordered the veggie plate with the Jamaica hibiscus tea. The tea was simply divine and I couldn't get enough of it. I will definitely be coming back

    Lipstick stains and food particles on glass

    Subpar Food Quality: The food was generally dry and bland. * Incorrect Spice Level: A "medium" spice level was equivalent to a very high level ("like a 10") at other Thai restaurants. * Missing/Poor Quality Garnish: The food advertised as coming with lime had old, dried-out lemon wedges instead. * Major Hygiene Issues: Cups were dirty and had visible lipstick stains and floating particles. * Poor Service: The server failed to return with fresh water after you pointed out the hygiene issues with the glass.

    Anytime I'm in the area, I will stop by to dine here! They have a good amount of tables. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. The workers are always so attentive and sweet. My favorite is their Tom yum noodle soup. It is so flavorful! I don't eat seafood and most Thai spots have seafood in this soup, this spot has chicken and tofu. Their pad Thai and curry is also delicious. Hands down my favorite Thai food spot!

    Tom Kha Soup ~ enough for at least 2 bowls each. Yum.
    Jeff N.

    Dined here the Day after Christmas since we were craving Tom Kha Soup big time. Their menu had lots to offer with Lunch Specials Their Food was Delicious! For starters we had the Tom Kha Soup with a Ladle and bowls for each of us to enjoy. Tasted so delicious and there was even enough to take home. She ordered a Pineapple Curry with White Rice I had the Shrimp Pad Thai with some Thai Tea on ice. Their Spice Scale went from 1 - 5, 5 being the Spiciest I had a Spice Level 3 ~ Just Right. Service was great - Ambiance was nice being outside. Definitely returning to enjoy more Tom Kha Soup & Pad Thai.

    Brown Rice - 7/10
    Maureen J.

    Total for dinner for 3 was: $90.22 without tip. We ordered the following: - Large Thai Tea - Small Mango Tea - Drunken Noodles with Chicken - Papaya Salad - Green Curry with Tofu and (1) brown rice - Garlic Tilapia with (2) sticky rice The meal was good, but the spice level wasn't spicy enough for us. The dishes were still pretty good. Servers were friendly. We got seated right away. We waited a lot, but there was a good amount of people eating in. Booths were kind of tight.

    Thai beers
    Ashley L.

    This is my second time coming here and I was not disappointed! Service was great and food came out quickly! All of the dishes packed a punch full of flavor! You get to choose your spice level 1-5, we got a 3 but could have done a 4. (Good if you like spicy!) this restaurant is definitely a home style place and everything is fresh. We will make this our go to spot for Thai food in the area. Highly recommend

The inside of the restaurant is very decorated, and although on the smaller side had a very nice vibe. Our server was quick to get all of us sat and had waters and hot water out fast. We ordered a large array of dishes, and almost all of them were great. Some of the standouts were the papaya salad, crispy pork, and tom yum fried rice. Our whole table was blown away by the tom yum fried rice. It had a very well done wok flavor and texture to the rice while still accurately capturing all of the classic flavor notes of a tom yum. From what we know, everything just tasted very high quality and authentic. We just wish we lived closer so we could come eat here again. If we are ever in the area I'm sure we will!

Upon entering there was only 1 waitress who was doing everything from taking orders, bringing out orders, ringing people up, and bussing tables so it was a bit of a small wait to get a table as she was solo. There were a few small parties she was tending to when we got there. Give the cook a raise! Everything we ordered was delicious! The cook named Thoum perfected all flavors and the food came out all together in a timely manner. We ordered the crispy noodle lard nah, beef pad see ew, and nam ngiao. Pad see ew and crispy noodle lard nah were delicious in flavors. The only thing with the lard nah was it contained too much gravy sauce so maybe less on that but overall still fire. It was my 1st time ever having nam ngiao. I don't think I've ever had it homemade or even seen it at any restaurants. I was curious and so glad I gave it a try it was hearty packed with a hefty amount of protein but yet the broth was light and refreshing. It contained pork ribs and pork blood tofu which was my 1st time having that as well. It was like a spongy texture like the pork blood was dehydrated and fermented. It was good! We also got mango sticky rice for dessert which was a perfect ending to our meal. Not too sweet just the way I like it. All the decorations inside were so cute even down to the water cups. Everything is nicely decorated to give you a glimpse of the Thai culture. I love it!

I mixed the chili flake into the drunken noodles and start to eat. After about 5 bites a hear a large crunch and feel a large amount of pain coming from my lower left rear molar. I instantly spit out the bite I was chewing and go through the my half chewed food to find out what caused the issue. After some poking around I started to find big hard shards of transparent material and small shards of hard white material. The transparent shards I bit into were clearly glass and the white material were chunks of my tooth. My mouth was bleeding and in pain and I could feel my lower rear left molar had a large chunk missing. This place is really fucked up for letting glass into their food. It was clear they broke some glass around the chili flake oil or around one of the ingredients that makes up the drunken noodles and instead of throwing away everything that could have potentially had glass in it, they tried to salvage some of that contaminated food and serve it to their customers. This was my first and last time eating at this place. What really pisses me off more about this whole situation is that my wife and I are currently introducing various solid foods to our 1 year old daughter and we both gave our daughter noodles from our dishes. It really makes my blood boil that this restaurants cheap and lazy owner and employees would let this type of shit slide and make it other people's problem just to save a few dollars from product loss. Now I have to take a day off work to go to the dentist and get my tooth fixed or if the tooth is past repairable I'll have to go through the process of getting it removed and replaced with some artificial tooth. It sucks that all of that will end up coming out of my pocket. I would suggest everyone to stay away from place. This type of shit happening is never worth the risk from a place that disregards their quality control like this. There are plenty of other great Thai and Asian restaurants in the area that I have gone too over and over again without one issue. I hope this review helps others avoid the same bullshit this restaurant is currently putting me through. Also incase any other customers found glass in their food, I purchased my order around 8pm on April 22nd 2026.

Everything was served extremely hot, which I appreciated. Even after finishing the salad and soup, I still had to let the chicken cashew nut cool down a bit. A really cute touch was that the rice on my plate was shaped like a heart. Customer service was great, and I will definitely be returning. The inside is nicely decorated and very clean, which is a huge plus for me. I was especially impressed that they had a changing table in the restroom, I wish all restaurants did. If you're in the area, definitely give them a try. The lunch special is a great deal, and they offer many options to choose from.
