Pad See Ew
Joanna F.

Honestly....not my favorite. I do love the inside of the restaurant and the service staff was super nice but just pretty mid. The green curry was good but too thin for me and not a very large serving for the price. The pad see ew was good because how can you go wrong w it, but I don't know also just slightly less saucy than I like! Not to saw pad see ew is a generally saucy dish but I don't know it needed more flavoring, and the beef was overdone for me but my friend liked it!

Filthy area of dirty towels in laundry baskets  Mop bucket, soybean oil boxes, empty egg crates  trash boxes

back parking lot where you enter from the side is full of garbage, dirty laundry, rags empty egg crates boxes of soybean oil stacked up. Brooms mop bucket disgusting. interior of restaurant is very shabby and rundown needs painting. Everything looks dingy. It is not a clean restaurant. Therefore who cares how good the food is.

Spice
Julia S.

Food was tasty and service was friendly and kind. My friend and I both got the pad Thai. It had the right balance of flavor, came out quickly, and was certainly a portion we could have shared. Our server was really attentive and helpful. He also asked if I wanted to add spice on the side and I did! It came with jalapeño pickles, some Thai spice packet, and a sauce. It was perfect :) So thanks Thai Orchid. I'll be back.

panang curry and red curry
Anwesha M.

got the panang curry w fried tofu! portions were decent but price was standard, the panang curry had a good taste and was on the thicker side

Yellow curry soft tofu + side of white rice
Michelly S.

Such a cute little spot in a great area! Amongst a busy area, this place managed to settle in a quiet little spot off of Campbell/Bascom, right across from the Pruneyard. Just opening when we got there so there was plenty of seating as we were the only ones for dine-in. Very Home-y inside and comfortable. We ordered Vegan pad see ew 10/10 honestly one of the best pad see ew's we've ever had! Great portion size for price and thickness of noodles was perfect!!! Would order again! Yellow curry 10/10 only feedback is that we wish we had more!! Perfect potato texture and the side of rice was a healthy portion for $4. We are excited to try more things on their menu!

House fried rice
Bhanusri S.

The food was good, portion sizes were great. I wish the dishes were priced a little lesser even if that meant cutting the portion size a bit. We had the house fried rice with fried tofu, drunken noodles with vegetable and a side of fried egg. My feedback is that there should be more veggies on the dishes and also $4 for a tiny fried egg is too expensive. The service was really great, the waiters were very sweet guys. The ambience was very dark for my liking.

Lad Na with Chicken and Beef
Adriana B.

This restaurant is one of my top 3 favorite Thai restaurant I've ever been to in my life. Everything I've tried is delicious. My favorite new thing I tried this time is the spicy catfish. The chili sauce from this dish is to die for- and a crowd favorite from my foodie siblings. Other honorable mentions are the golden duck curry that I forgot to picture. But everything I've tried is good. 10/10 recommend. I always try to come here when I come to San Jose. Service is always great. And it's always nice and homey and clean.

tom yum and pad see ew
Audrey P.

My family came in on a weekday around 6. We waited around 5 minutes. We ordered the tom yum soup, pineapple fried rice, and the pad see ew. Everything was delicious and flavorful. The tom yum was very aromatic. The fried rice was nice and wasn't dry at all. The noodles were nice and soft and flavorful too. Service was nice and friendly. They were quick with taking our order and bringing the food out. The seating was interesting. There were two rooms? separated by curtains? The restaurant is definitely on the smaller side but that didn't bother me at all.

Lad Na
Gary C.

Quite a lovely Thai spot just next to the Pruneyard. The vibes are nice; it's a restaurant transformed from a home with lovely decor. I ordered the spicy catfish and my partner ordered the Lad Na. Sauce was a bit watery and flavor was just ok for the Lad Na. Flavor profile and fish were well cooked for the catfish but felt it was still missing an element to take it up a notch. Excellent service. I probably wouldn't come back for the Thai food specifically but overall a nice spot.

Does anyone know if they're open for indoor dining yet?

They are open for indoor dining.

Is this place same Thai restaurant that was in downtown San Jose (on 2nd street ?) like 10+ years ago? (The name and inside looks similar)

Delicious Thai food with a comfortable and dog friendly outdoor patio! We went on a Saturday…read moreafternoon and there was no line. We ordered the roti, crispy pork belly, sausage, Laos style papaya salad, and a khao soi to share between 3 people. All of the food was absolutely delicious but we felt like the portions were a little small for the price. The pork belly and sausage were both ~ $23 and didn't come with as many pieces as we thought it would. This was some of the crispiest roti I've ever had! I loved the curry dipping sauce on the side and the nice crunch of the cucumbers. The pork belly was slightly overcooked, a little hard but the flavors were great! The sausage tasted house made, it had a great tang to it and I loved the variety of dipping sauce. We ordered extra spicy/hot for the Laos papaya salad but it was definitely medium. The khao soi was very comforting on a cold day and the broth was rich and creamy. I'd definitely come back if I was in the area!

I ordered the Pad Thai (seafood) and Pad See Ew (shrimp), and the total came out to about $50…read more Unfortunately, both dishes were pretty underwhelming. Everything tasted just okay, very mediocre overall. The Pad See Ew had a weird bitter aftertaste that made it hard to enjoy. The Pad Thai was also disappointing; the noodles were clumped together and lacked flavor. We didn't finish either dishes. For the price, I expected much better quality and taste. Probably wouldn't come back.

The food being tasty helps too of course. Im glad it's not a big restaurant, but you can tell their kitchen is busy with lots of take out orders. I don't think this place is much of a secret! And they also have a kiosk to order and walk around willow glen which I haven't done but can see if the tables were booked, it would make sense! This date spot never disappoints, i love the pad kee mao with vegetables and if you are vegetarian they are clear not to add fish sauce. Their roti and their curries are wonderful, always leave with a little take home box to enjoy the rest at home, the service is so friendly and kind. A nice experience every time! Thanks Tarah staff, I am a fan & always find my next visit a treat! The drinks menu is nice too, but usually the food is enough for me. Writing this however reminds me to frequent the downtown WG stroll when it's warm and would enjoy a nice iced drink from here!
