Welp... I really, really liked this place. I have it at least once a month. Or... HAD it rather. And perhaps this is on me, I should have asked, but... when a place says 'vegetarian', I think the entire dish is vegetarian. Not so here. Outside of the Shio Ramen, ALL the soups use animal broth. Just found that out and am now realizing I have not been following the vegetarian diet I thought I had. read more

This place gets better and better. I have visited quite a few times and each time I try something new, I have a new favorite. The owners are so sweet and kind. They are quick and truly care for their customers. The one thing I would change is the boba used in their iced teas. It's too hard and almost inedible, but the tea itself is fantastic. read more

Great service and staff. Food was fresh and hot. Would highly recommend this business. Great addition to Main Street.

I've had Thai food from all over the United States, so I had high expectations. Being from Placerville I was excited to discover a Thai Restaurant right on Main Street. My sister and I ordered Chicken Pho, Chicken Yellow Curry with Rice, Chicken Pad Thai, and Gyoza. Overall it was okay. I do wish the Pad Thai came with peanuts and lime wedges. read more

This is a new spot in town, and I am very excited about it! It's really hard to find anything that resembles non-American food in Placerville, and the few spots that are up here normally aren't very good. This is a tiny noodle shop, with a couple counter seats and two tables. They also have a table outside if you happen to have a dog with you. Most of the dishes they offer are Thai based - nothing too crazy, I think they know the clientele of Placerville. They do have many of the main staples though. They also offer Pho and Ramen (can't speak to how good these are yet). We opted for shrimp pad Thai and Pad See Ew - pretty hard to mess those up. The kitchen is very small, so they got one dish out and then had to cook the other. It was only about 5 minutes between, though I imagine if they had been busy it might have been much longer. Everything was good! I was so pleasantly surprised. My pad see ew was pretty skimpy on the veggies, but full of chicken to make up for it. Good portion sizes as well. Best Thai I've ever had - no, but DEFINITELY the best in the area. Two water bottles and plates set us back $25. They do takeout, and take cards ($7 min purchase). Most menu items are between $9-11. They also offer Thai tea/coffee and boba. I am very excited to go back and try more of their dishes. read more

I've came here probably about once a week for the last couple months, and have never been disappointed! They are always friendly and quick! I used to sort of enjoy Thai food, but it has quickly became one of my favorite type of food because of this place! Best Thai food around! read more

Yes!! Ramen in Placerville, are you kidding me?! And good ramen at that. Not as good as the places in downtown Sacramento, but this place was fast, not overly expensive, and had a great selection of ramen and curry dishes as well as appetizers and teas. Definitely will be back! Btw I suggest ordering to go as there is verrrry little room inside to eat. read more

This is a new cute restaurant on Main Street which adds a desperately needed Asian eatery serving very delicious Thai and other Asian dishes fresh out of the kitchen. Small seating area inside and a sidewalk table. We had a chicken and green beans rice plate (wonderful spices) and a rice noodle and chicken breast garlicky dish -- authentic and plentiful for lunch. We will definitely visit many more times to try others. read more

We go to Placerville every few months to knock around Main St. This time we decided to try some Thai food and ended up here - a very small place near the Hangtown Belltower. It's nothing more than a narrow gash in a vast facing of storefronts - easy to miss if you're not looking for it. The tiny kitchen is larger than the dining area, which seats a grand total of 11 inside and two outside. There's is counter service, but the actual counter seems the size of a postage stamp. You have to wedge-in tight to place an order. That doesn't keep folks from coming, though. It was consistently busy on a wet and overcast Friday afternoon. The menu here includes some classic Thai selections as well as pho and several ramen dishes. We chose spicy chicken and eggplant, yellow chicken curry with vegetables and brown rice, an order of edamame, and two Thai teas. All were very good. After strolling along Main St. following our lunch we stopped in again for takeout, for dinner - spicy chicken wings, pad Thai, fried rice and an order of ramen. It all held-up well on the 30-mile drive home and made for a fine evening meal. Only two comments I would offer: 1) I watched my edamame being prepared. It came out of a frozen package that looked like it was purchased at Smart and Final and was zapped in the microwave. I coulda done that at home. 2) The small size of the restaurant means that customers should be prepared to wait awhile for their orders, which contradicted our perception on-approach. "Express" usually denotes quickness. The wait-time is as long as many full-service joints, but the food is prepared the right way - no short cuts other than the edamame. This restaurant opened in January. We wish it well and hope it's successful enough to move to a larger space. read more

Excellent food! Super fresh and large portions. I had never had Thai before this place and I'm hooked! And the customer service here is awesome! I recommend this place to everyone read more

Quality food, affordable prices, generous portions and staff that can't be beat. I stopped in and picked up a to-go order for my boyfriend and myself this evening and it was delicious!! I had Pad Thai and he had Spicy Thai noodle soup. Both incredibly tasty, we will definitely be coming back here more often!! read more

Thai Noodle Express - Mango sweet rice. Yes it's an addiction of mine. - Thai Near Me - Placerville, California

I liked it. They were clean. Followed covid regs. Portion a tad small but it's take out so I get it. I liked the pad Thai, the drunken noodles, and the curry I've had. Very good. Would return. Would recommend. read more

Mediocre hole in the wall. Stopped in on a Monday on our way through town. The place was sweltering hot so no reprieve from the heat outside. Our interaction with the younger guy at the counter was somewhat awkward and we weren'tquite sure what to make of it. The selection of three soft drinks was rather disappointing. After an hour's ride in the heat ice cold water sounded awesome, but the tepid tap water that we got just didn't quite hit the spot. Even my slightly cold coke from a can (no glass with ice) was pretty lame. When I asked the awkward guy for ice he shoveled it out of a small igloo.. reassuring. On the up side the food was above average. I had the pad gai while the better half of present company had the pad thai. All in all though we're not likely to come back. read more

I love this place!!!! My favorite is the Spicy Tonkatsu Shoyu Ramen. SO SO GOOD!!! I'm trying to break down why I love this so much but I can't. It's everything! Broth, noodles, pork (melts in your mouth!). I especially loved that they were able to make it extra spicy for me. My husband loves the Ramen also but also tried the Pho. Excellent!! Yes, the place is pretty small, actually tiny but we've always been able to get a seat. We'll be back....again and again!! : ) read more

I was so pleasantly surprised by this place!! The food was super fresh and flavorful. I had the Thai salad and it really hit the spot. Quick and cheap and satisfying. Thanks for a good meal on our way into Tahoe :) read more

Try the drunken noodles. Absolutely divine. Friendly and quick service. A must have while enjoying downtown Main Street

Saw a sign in the window for Pho, and the boyfriend and I beelined for the restaurant. He ordered Pho, I ordered chicken fried rice (I'm not particularly adventurous). The food is so good! It's fresh, it's absolutely delicious, the service is excellent and the price isn't bad. We have been back many times & are never disappointed. Try it! read more

The Bahn Mi is soooooo good! I love coming here for lunch and getting this and the chicken wings! Also pad Thai is great for dinner!

The drunken noodles were so good!! Would recommend! They were super fast and weren't very expensive. We also had the fresh roles and all of the vegys were super fresh. read more

Great basic Thai menu plus some other Asian favorites. We had the masaman curry, pho chicken and teriyaki chicken. All were really good. I would have given them 5 stars, but there are a couple of limitations. First, they don't allow you to use their bathroom and we're unable to direct is to a public one nearby. I'm not sure that's even legal, but it's certainly not too nice when you can see their restroom from the dining room. Secondly, there is very little seating. With 3 couples in there​ (and we were outside), it was packed. So, it's mostly takeout with restaurant prices. Anyway, great food and hard to complain on that front. We'll be back I'm sure. read more

Really good food, super friendly staff, would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys Thai cuisine. Try the #21 if you like basil & spicy!!

I tried their Pad Kee Mow (drunked noodles) and some gyoza. It was very good! The best tasting Thai food I have had in Placerville thus far. They could use more seating and a bigger location! read more

We found parking, looked up and there was Thai Noodle Express! It is a classic hole in the wall restaurant with no air conditioning and barely 5 tables including the two outside. The kind gentleman that serves is recommended the pad tai and another dish we had never had, both were excellent! The price was fair and I would definitely recommend this place if shopping in Placerville. Yum! read more

We had dinner here for the first time. The young man behind the counter was very nice and courteous. The food was amazing. Very flavorful and just the right amount of spice. read more

Ordered a Togo through door dash, and it was AWESOME. I got the drunken noodles, and my husband ordered the shoyu pork ramen and it was amazing. The ingredients are quality and the food was delicious read more

Came here during the quarantine and got takeout. While they seem to be taking solid measures for social distancing, their food was the worst Thai food we've had. We both got the drunken noodle and it did NOT have neither chili or basil like they say on the menu. It was just a soy sauce noodle. Not sure if they were just out for the day, or they forgot, but it was gross and a waste of money. Not returning. read more

This place has delicious food! I had the pad Thai and it was better than anywhere else I've had it, and my fiancé happily had the drunken noodle. The staff were very friendly as well. We want to come here all the time now! read more

This place is good. Not great but good and they have good ramen too. This is my third time being here and again the food was good. The service is fast. The issue that I have is with how small and hot the space is. Also these people aren't very friendly. They are at most cordial. My main reason for a 2 star review is on my second visit here, they had let me use their bathroom. It's a small location and a bathroom is a long walk away. But the third time I was here they told me there was no bathroom to use. It was a very hot day and I had a lot of water to drink. I also had already tipped them 20% before I received my food. I guess that just goes to show to never tip before your finished with your experience at a restaurant! read more

We stopped by at 8:30 to get our thai fix and this hit the spot. It's a true hole in the wall and they make your order fresh right before your eyes. The cashier helping out was super nice and we really couldn't have asked for better service. Food was stellar highly recommended, especially the pad thai. read more

We ordered the spicy eggplant and we also ordered the shrimp ramen and a side of brown rice.....when we got home our order had no side of brown rice, the eggplant had chicken in it which was not listed as an ingredient in this dish on the menu.... we would not have ordered if it did list it. The ramen had 4 pieces of shrimp....which for 14.95 was a bit steep for the portion...The person at the counter is overwhelmed....taking phone orders, taking counter orders, making tea...so our to go order ended up sitting at a table for 10 minutes before he told us our order was ready to go..... read more

I truly can't say enough about this place! The best Thai food in el dorado county. period. I recommend this place day and night. And I will just say I am pretty picky about my Thai food selections because love it so much. Also BIG shoutout to David! He's just the nicest kid, so helpful and does A great job creating a fun work environment while also being professional. Always look forward to seeing him. I'm so happy they moved into a better location, happy to say they succeedEd through the pandemic! read more

The food is amazing! Lots of wonderful options! My only problem is that it's just enough to eat, no leftovers.. ooo, an limited seating.

Everything I've had here has been delicious. I love the khao soy and the pad see ew. Fresh vegetables and good flavor. I can always depend on this restaurant for a tasty and satisfying meal! Highly recommend. read more

Love this place! So cute and great food. Although they ask too much for the teryaki chicken and rice for the amount they give you.

The food here is amazing. If you are looking for good authentic food, this is your place. They will not disappoint!!!!

Today is the best time for us to try this place!!! We order 3 ramen and one ka prow moo korb ( chirpy pork with Chinese broccoli) Ramen taste was so good BUT the soup for 3 of us was NOT HOT !!!

They should told us that they don't have any Chinese broccoli we would like to order something else:( read more
