Amazing food , very friendly staff, a must visit sacramento restaurant. I recommend the yellow curry.

The pineapple fried rice

I ordered the Pineapple rice it wasn't hot when it got to the table. The carrots were hard my fork could not piece them. The onions were cut too big so they over powered each bite. The chicken was dry and the flavor was lacking. The appetizer was really yucky. Made with old hard biter lettuce and tofu that hadn't been season before cutting it up and putting it in a wrap.

Green Curry
Anusha G.

My friend and I were really excited to try Coconut River Park but unfortunately, it just didn't meet our expectations. We ordered the green curry with vegetables and tofu as well as drunken noodles with tofu ToGo. The green curry was pretty good. The curry itself was flavorful and there was ample protein in it. The noodles felt short for us. They were extremely bland and didn't taste like drunken noodles at all. The quantities they gave us were very reasonable for the price. Service was good as well! The restaurant itself has plenty of parking outside and a good amount of tables inside to seat people during busy lunch and dinner times. Maybe we'll try it again some other time!

The food was so fresh and flavorful! I tried the beef pad Thai and Thai basil fried rice and omggggg both were delicious and really hit the spot! I also had a glass of plum wine that was sweet, cool, and refreshing. Our server was nice even considering that she was the only person taking orders and in the front of the house. The space is small and cozy with simple decor. If you're coming with a larger group, it's probably a good idea to call ahead so they can make sure there's space. Bonus points for happy hour Monday through Friday until 6 PM most spots end earlier or don't offer it at all these days. Our food came out hot and in a good amount of time. Definitely worth a visit if you're in or near River Park.

Coconut chicken Yellow Curry
Darci K.

I know that y'all have been raving about the coconut, and I can absolutely see why. This is their original location, located near SAC State University, if you blink, you just might miss it. It's in a strip center with a couple of other restaurants. The interior is Uber, casual, and the food is Uber. Tasty. Friends introduced me to this hotspot. Yes, it's a hotspot because their food is made fresh daily, and everything is made in house. It's like having your mom cook for you. I ordered the Thai tea, and it was so tasty that I found the bottom of the glass, a lot faster than I hoped I would. I ordered the yellow curry with chicken. Everything about the dish was pretty tasty. The yellow curry was very mellow, the vegetables, tender, and there is plenty of protein. Much more than I expected. I'm personally not a fan of thinly sliced chicken because I find it becomes too Overcooked. At least for me. It was delicious nonetheless. Service was impeccable, and the wait staff is really nice. I love that the curry comes with purple rice. Something that I've wanted to try, and I was so glad that I did. It's nutty, and simply delicious. I know most people would put some in their curry, but I enjoyed it as is Great spot, reasonably priced, and you definitely get your moneys worth! As I mentioned, it's pretty casual dining. It's a great place to meet up with friends, a casual date, or for that matter just bring the family !

Silver Noodle Salad, Pad Thai, Fried Chicken Wing
Jay Y.

SUCH HUGE PORTIONS!!!!! Omg, I ordered the silver noodle salad thinking it was a tiny portion, boy was I wrong! It was family sized for such a great price and the flavors were amazing. I love silver noodle salad and this one is definitely one of the best! The fried chicken was very crispy and tangy flavored. The pad Thai was cooked perfectly, chewy noods and not soggy at all. The drunken noodles was super spicy and flavored nicely. The staff was very attentive with refilling our waters and drinks and very friendly. Will definitely come back!!!

Anibal H.

Ambience is great, don't be fooled by the fact that it's a local neighborhood out of the way from the freeway or J St. turn off from Cal State. It's yummy and delicious!

Knee Deep beer
Kevin L.

$2 beer is a hit that keeps me coming back , a great addition to my dinner aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Spicy Thai Salad
Ashante L.

Visiting this location is always refreshing. It's bright and airy. The service is always very prompt and food fresh and delicious. On my recent visit I ordered Cream Cheese Wontons, Chicken wings and the Spicy Thai Salad. Everything was delicious.

Calvin C.

The overall food for this place was decent to good. I don't think that there is a big attractor in terms of what makes me want to come back to this place, but the service was good and the interior was clean and tidy. I'd recommend this place to try if you do like Thai food, but I can't say that I'm one who would recommend this place unless one is interested in exploring other cuisine. The flavors weren't hitting and fell a bit short but I digress.

Pad Thai with beef
Laura T.

Tucked away in a small shopping strip there was plenty of parking. I phoned my order ahead of time and their service was fabulous. They offered me utensils when I paid for my order and the total was $17.35 for the beef May 2023. The food was piping hot! It was a nice portion with lots of protein. I was fishing for the noodles at some point lol. The interior was very cute and clean. Overall had a great experience and would frequent this establishment if I was closer. Their pad Thai is the best I've had thus far

Ricardo H.

No accommodations, I didn't mind paying extra to make it the right way the lady today was just extremely rude and yelling!

Food was delicious and everything was flavored well - love the sauce pairings. Originally I thought the root was more like veggie tempura but is actually more of a fritter with a sauce. Very crispy. The Hai Yai Fried Chicken has a nice crispy outer skin, cuts really well - meat melts away from the bones, and the fat portion taste really good. The main con I want to call out here is based off how it cuts I thought the chicken meat inside would be very juicy - but is actually kind of dry. So docking points for the inside chicken meat portion. Really love the pandan sago coconut ice cream tho. Ice cream has actual coconut meat in it and the salted coconut sauce on the outside nicely balance the sweetness of the ice cream. Will come again if in town.

We decided to get the pad thai, pork belly pad kraw prow, pork ribs appetizer, and gai satay. They first brought out the gai satay and it was delicious. The peanut sauce that went with the dish was super yummy. Then the pork ribs came out. There were only 4 ribs and a small side of salad . I personally thought it was pretty expensive for just four pork ribs, but the ribs were extremely flavorful. I would say probably the best thing we had even though every thing was delicious. After that they served us the pad thai and pad kraw prow. Both dishes were extended wly delicious. I would definitely come back to this place.

Parking lot We got: Pumpkin curry (5/5): This one absolutely delivered. Rich, balanced, and layered with flavor. The vegetables were cut large and cooked properly, not limp, not drowned. The pumpkin chunks were generous and tender while still holding their shape, and they actually tasted like pumpkin instead of filler. The sauce coated everything without suffocating it. Hearty, vibrant, and the kind of dish that makes you pause mid bite and appreciate it Green curry (4.5/5): Really strong flavor profile with a subtle sweetness that worked instead of overwhelmed. The sauce had depth and freshness, and it felt indulgent without being heavy. If it had pushed the spice level just a bit further, it would have been elite. Still, a very satisfying bowl and one I would gladly order again

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.

Everything else sat somewhere in the middle Parking? Lot We had: Chicken Satay (4/5): Flavor wise, this was locked in. One of the better peanut sauces I've had. Nutty, slightly sweet, with enough depth to keep it interesting. The problem was execution. It came out lukewarm, which dulled the whole experience and made it feel less fresh than it should have. Also could've used more sauce. Still good, just not quite dialed Green Curry (2.5/5): This one just didn't show up. The flavors felt muted and never really came together. The vegetable mix was fine, but it needed more eggplant to give it some body and identity. The chicken was forgettable. Nothing offensive, just flat. Easy pass Mango Curry (4.5/5): This is where things turned around. Bright, layered, and actually interesting. Real mango brought a natural sweetness that worked instead of overwhelming, and the sauce had depth. It felt composed. The vegetables could've been more evenly distributed and the chicken was just okay, but overall this was the standout and absolutely worth ordering again
