Favorite Thai around!! Their curries are the best I've ever had. Service is phenomenal. Always friendly and energetic. My go to is the Crispy Chicken Panang curry, absolutely to die for! Also... try the chili oil crunch they have, you'll be hooked! Always looking forward to my next visit, truly appreciate the hospitality. read more

Never had Thai Boat Soup before. Fantastic! Lovely service and food. Boat Soup was spicy (spice forward) in a great way. They make their own chili powder, garlic chili sauce, and fish sauce, so you can up the sweet, spicy or tangy to your flavor, though I found the base soup was good enough I didn't want to add much. Came with a large amount of beef (they have a pork option too), which can be a rarity with noodle soup dishes. Beef meatballs were plenty as well. More than I could have in one sitting and earned every one of the five stars I'm rating Menu had a lot of classics like pad thai, pad see euw, and several curries. Wish I had a couple-three more stomachs to try a few other options. Was in town for work so flying solo today, but next time I'll be back with more friends/coworkers so we can try other dishes read more

Amazing food And customer service. Went beyond service with my 2 grandsons . It's my daughter's go to for Thai food. read more

Dude. This place is legit. Service was exceptional - place was beautiful, ambience wonderful. Our faves were the crispy chicken fried rice and peanut cha cha. Samosas very yummy too! So very tasty. 3 stars for heat was perfect flavor bomb. We'll be back the next time we are in the area! Well done! read more

Just left hungry. Only 3 tables occupied and they didn't even come by to take our order after waiting for 20 plus minutes. Absolutely ridiculous. Expect slow and unprofessional service. read more

We tried three dishes and overall had a really enjoyable meal. The drunken noodles were flavorful with a nice balance of savory and spice, and the noodles had a great texture without being greasy. The crab fried rice was fragrant and well-seasoned, with generous pieces of crab mixed throughout, making it a standout. The seafood soup was comforting and fresh, with a good variety of seafood and a light, flavorful broth. While nothing completely blew us away, everything was solid and satisfying. Definitely a place we'd return to and recommend. FYI, the new owner is very friendly and accommodating. read more

Four of us had lunch here recently. I strongly agree with the reviewers who say service here is very welcoming and friendly. I had Pumpkin Curry with vegetables (extra veg in place of a meat). The veg selection was decent enough, though there was not much pumpkin to speak of for the extra price (compared to their regular curries). The curry sauce was also disappointing, as I found it very, very sweet, making it impossible to taste other flavors. I had brown rice instead of jasmine, which turned out to be an interesting blend of several different rice varieties. My husband had Drunken Noodle with vegetables. He felt the noodles were cooked perfectly, but wished it had a bit more veggies. He found the balance of the garlic sauce's sweetness and spiciness just right. Everyone found the spice level accurate, with 3 (on a 1-5 scale) providing a significant amount of heat, but not too much. Prices are a bit higher than a couple of other local Thai places we frequent. It was a good lunch overall, though I think the others in my party enjoyed the food more than I did. read more

First of all, let me say the service at this place is phenomenal. We had the papaya salad, panang curry, tom yum noodle soup, and mango sticky rice. The portions were all very good and the quality of the ingredients in food was top-notch. Been to a lot of Thai food places in my days and I gotta say this is my new favorite Thai restaurant. Highly recommend this place! read more

First time to eat small lunch here . The food was super delicious . We had Crab Fried Rice, Crispy Pork Belly and Shrimp Pad Thai. Yummy !! Found out it is a family own Thai restaurant. The owner Romlan served the three of us . Excellent customer service. While a small area it felt spacious, bright and clean . We will definitely come back . So many more choices to try . read more

Two words.. FOOD. COMA. Tong Thai Bistro is a hidden gem in Folsom, known for their large portions and quality authentic Thai dishes. The menu is full of fan favorites from pad thai, khao soi, pork belly, to the beloved mango sticky rice. Beef noodle soup- Incredibly aromatic, light beefy broth not quite as heavy as boat noodles. The beef was tender and paired nicely with the chewy rice noodles. The portion was absolutely massive. I have never seen such a large and heavy bowl. I would definitely order it again. Samosa - The pastry itself was buttery and delicate. The filling had a strong curry flavor with potatoes and vegetables. The sweet chili sauce on the side was a great tangy punch. Crispy pork belly- This was a great appetizer but the sauce from the samosa paired better with the meat in my opinion. If they could put two different accompanying sauces with this dish, it could be even better. The sweet chili sauce adds a tangy bright flavor while the soy sauce just adds umami. Mango sticky rice- The coconut cream sauce is thick, rich and both sweet and salty. The sticky rice is chewy and soft. Although it wasn't mango season, the mango was sweet. What a perfect way to finish off the meal. Highly recommend. What stands out about Tong Thai Bistro is the hospitality. The workers are so friendly, down to earth, and kind. Their warmth and service really reminds me of being back in Thailand. We ordered 5 dishes for about $80 total which is really good for the amount of food we got. We took home plenty of leftovers and left with full bellies. Thank you Tong Thai Bistro for a memorable experience and a wonderful dinner after a long snow day. read more

We had an early dinner here. Very nice crew very good meal. Small restaurant with clean tables. We'll be back!

We've been coming here for the last couple years, and every time we get the food, we realize how much we love it! The staff is super nice and service is great! The food is fresh and we usually do take out, and it carries home well. Our favorites are the pad Thai, red curry, and the egg rolls. read more

Came to Tong Thai Bistro after reading great reviews... We had a mighty tasty lunch. 2 different chicken dishes Very friendly server likely the owner. Food came quickly & the chicken was tender, the veggies cooked to perfection. Waiter was gracious & appreciative that we came in to dine. Would definitely return. Plenty of parking in the lot. Small restaurant. May need reservations during busy dinner hours. read more

This is our new favorite Thai place in the Granite Bay/Folsom area! Not only is the food fantastic, but the service is welcoming and super friendly. On multiple occasions, we have seen the staff welcome their regulars and inquire about how they're doing. My husband loves the Panang Curry with crispy chicken. As someone who gets chicken katsu on the regular, he is quick to say that the crispy chicken at Tong Thai Bistro is top tier. I've loved the basil crispy pork belly - each morsel of meat was delicious and the veggies are done equally well with just the right amount of tenderness to bite. We've also enjoyed the basil eggplant and the mango sticky rice, which is a perfect sweet treat for two. The soft shell crab (which was crispy and not hard or oily) pad Thai definitely hits the spot if you're looking for a typical dish, but isn't what makes this place so special. I have a moderate spice tolerance and get my dishes at 3/5 and my husband likes his food more mild at 2/5. read more

My bestfriend and I always look for a new Thai place to try. Today, we tried Tong Thai Bistro and it did not disappoint. Our server was friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. The food was delicious and the portions were big for a reasonable price. I'd definitely recommend getting fried shrimp donut for appetizer. The restaurant itself was clean and had pictures of Thailand to make you feel like you are there. Highly recommended read more

The food was flavorful n yummy, and they did a great job accommodating my food allergies and preparing vegan dishes. The staff was accommodating, and everything was delicious! I would definitely recommend this place. If you're sensitive to spice, I'd recommend ordering mild, as the heat can be bit intense! read more

I found this place on my way to work. The vibe is nice relaxing and beautiful the staff are super nice and helpful with the menu. I ordered the crab fried rice and added shrimp and I ordered the chicken wings. The crab fried rice was delicious had great flavor and the right amount of heat. And the chicken wings were ok a little over cooked to my liking. And the Thai tea was perfection. My only thing is I wish the portion size was a little bit bigger but I'm still coming back and recommend read more

Really good! We each had a lunch special, green curry chicken and boat noodles. We now have a favorite Thai restaurant even though it's 40 minutes away from where we live. It's worth the drive. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Looking at what others ordered, we could see that portions were very generous, packed with fresh ingredients, and looked delicious. We'll be back soon. read more

Tong Thai Bistro - A Hidden Gem with Heart This was our first time at Tong Thai Bistro, and we chose it based on the great Yelp reviews--and wow, it absolutely lived up to the hype! I ordered the Pad See Ew with beef (mild spice), and it was perfect--the noodles were tender, the beef was flavorful, and the mild spice level added just the right kick without overpowering the dish. My girlfriend had the Pad Thai with chicken, which was just as delicious, with that perfect balance of tangy, sweet, and savory. We also split the crispy pork belly, which was rich, tender, and had the most satisfying crunch. What truly made the experience unforgettable, though, was Romlan, who gave us some of the best customer service we've ever had. He was incredibly personable, upbeat, and made us feel so welcome. His energy is truly infectious in the best way possible. As a generous surprise, he brought us a Thai iced tea and Thai coffee on the house--and let me just say, the Thai tea was incredible. It's honestly some of the best I've ever had: creamy, perfectly sweet, and so refreshing. Thank you Romlan for giving us such a wonderful experience! We left full, happy, and already talking about when we'll be back. Whether you're a Thai food regular or just looking for your next favorite local spot, Tong Thai Bistro is a must-try. read more

Food here is fantastic and the owner is super nice! After our first visit we went here two more times within the week, it was that good. The crispy chicken panang curry is one of the best thai curries I have ever had and the mango salad is delicious, refreshing, and really unique. The portion sizes are great and the food is even better. We will be back soon! read more

This is the absolute best Thai food we've had in California, let alone the best in the Sacramento metro area. The food is phenomenal and the customer service is fabulous as well. Literally every single item we've had here has been amazing - right from the curries (red curry, masaman, yellow curry, green curry), and the curry puffs (samosas), to the fried rice and the Thai cashew nut. But the standout item here, and the best in my estimation is the khao soi, a northern Thai specialty, which Tong Thai makes to perfection. Every single element is perfect in that dish, from the noodles to the broth, and to the crunchy noodles on the top. Run here, don't walk, if you haven't been here yet! read more

I was really craving Thai and we tried this spot for the high ratings. My husband and I ordered the chicken pad thai, chicken drunken noodles and fresh spring rolls. Pad thai- no complaints. I felt everything was cooked to perfection with all the right amount of flavor and spice. Drunken noodles- the chicken was a little tough but I enjoyed the amount of veggies present. I do wish there was a tad more noodles though. Overall, a great dish. Spring rolls- I wasn't a fan of the lettuce being almost like a lettuce wrap on two of the pieces; I wish they were all cohesive and the same portions in all. Over all, I would definitely come here again as the food was good and the staff was friendly from what we saw with our to go orders. read more

I was very impressed when I first walked in, ambiance was very nice and clean with beautiful decorations and the restroom was super clean and smell so good. The owner was very kind and friendly, not to mention about their foods, the shrimp cake so delicious. The foods were big portion size totally worth the price. I got a complimentary Thai curry with the noodle, it was a bomb. I was so surprised when he offer me a free sample. That was very kind of him, THANK YOU! Guys, if you looked for a good Thai restaurant with super friendly service, please give them a try! You won't be disappointed . KOB KHUN KA read more

Second time here. This restaurant is in a strip mall with plenty of parking out front. The servers are super nice and attentive. My husband orders the tofu curry and rice. It was a generous bowl of curry and very good flavors but could have been a bit thicker. It was quite thin but still good. I ordered the pad Thai. Again, a very generous portion. It was good. A bit oily but very nice flavor. We also ordered the samosas that were absolutely delicious and piping hot. They came with sweet chili sauce. We would definitely go back and try something different again. read more

As someone with a Thai significant other, we tend to seek out Thai restaurants wherever we go--whether they're aiming for authenticity or serving up Americanized versions of the classics. Based on the strong Yelp reviews, we came in hopeful this spot near our new home would become a go-to. Unfortunately, while not a bad restaurant by any means, it didn't quite live up to the hype. Papaya Salad (Lao Style): We were glad they offered it Lao style--something not all places will do. That said, the salad was overwhelmingly salty, to the point that the sodium completely masked other flavors. Even as someone who doesn't love fish sauce, I tried it and agreed. We asked for extra lime to try to cut through the saltiness. Pork Belly Appetizer: The dish was only really enjoyable when paired with the provided sauce; on its own, it was just okay. Honestly, 99 Ranch across the street serves a fried pork belly in their hot foods section that is crunchier and more flavorful. Pineapple Fried Rice: This was my entrée, and again the flavors were just average. The curry flavor dominated, it was a bit greasy, and overall I'd rate it 6/10 compared to similar restaurants. Fried Chicken Wings: We ordered these for our kids with the sauce on the side. Unfortunately, one wing came out noticeably undercooked with pink meat and a red bone. We discreetly pushed it aside in front of the kids. When the server noticed, his facial expression said it all, and he admitted he'd remind the kitchen to be more careful. Soft Shell Crab: This was a highlight. Five small crabs came on the plate, nicely crisp and with good flavor. Larb Salad (Chicken): Another strong dish--classic flavors, fresh, and very enjoyable. Service & Atmosphere: Our server (I didn't catch his name) was excellent--attentive, quick, and positive throughout. The food came out piping hot, and his energy and professionalism were the highlight of the visit. He earned a solid tip. Final Thoughts: Overall, the food ranged from okay to decent, with a couple of hits (larb and soft shell crab) and some misses (overly salty papaya salad, greasy fried rice, undercooked wings). Given the 4.7 Yelp rating, we were expecting more. While the service was top-notch, the inconsistency in the dishes makes me unsure if we'll return. read more

Great Thai food restaurant!! Wow the staff here are so friendly and nice. Great dining experience. The food was great! I absolutely loved the fried shrimp donuts!! I could eat those all day. The crispy chicken paneng curry was full of flavor and the mango cha-cha drink was refreshing. Their mango sticky rice dessert was soooo good, I will have to make sure I save room for dessert every time I come because that has to be ordered again and again. read more

I've been here before, and I wanted to leave a review because this place is really nice and the food is delicious. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The chef even made a Thai dessert that you usually can't find here, and it was amazing. I tried the Khao Soi, and it was so good -- rich, flavorful, and comforting. Everything tasted fresh, and you can tell they put a lot of care into the food. I really enjoyed my meal and will definitely come back again. read more

My wife and I found this little gem about a year ago when we moved to Folsom. This is definitely our go to for Thai food. Service is great too and they are so friendly. Just took my in-laws there last night and they loved it too! read more

Ambiance is small, clean, and well decorated. Tons of parking available. I ordered to go so didn't get to hang inside for long. Service is VERY friendly, warm, and welcoming. All the other reviews about the service are true. He didn't have something on the menu (it was taken off a while ago due to unpopularity but pic is still on yelp) and he didn't have to, but he offered me two Thai teas on the house. Thai tea was cold, creamy, sweet and refreshing on a warm evening. So to the food! Fair notice: I ordered Togo and then had to go to the Sacramento airport and then back to Placerville where I live. Kiddo and I ate most of the appetizers on the way to the airport but the salad and curry was after we got home to Placerville. I'm sure taste/ texture would be better if dishes were eaten immediately. Samosas: Delicious. No real notes. Has a nice bold flavor. Crust was a little soggy because it was being steamed in the paper box until we ate it on the road. But flakey and I'm sure crispy if eaten immediately or reheated in the air fryer. Would absolutely order again. Shrimp donut: Warm and crispy (if eaten immediately). Air-fried it at home and it had a nice crisp bite. Good taste. Wouldn't order it again but I see why it's popular and recommended. Pork belly: Much better when I reheated it at home. I liked this sauce better than the sweet and sour they give with the shrimp and samosa appetizers but wished there was acid. A lot of their dipping sauces come off sweet. I sprinkled more salt at home and ate it with fresh herbs, pickled Veggies and sticky rice. Chicken satay: Juicy chunks of skewered chicken. Very tasty and would totally order again. Larb pork: BD loves his Larb. Unfortunately he ate this two hours after I picked it up so that might have changed the taste or texture a bit. Fresh is probably better. He said he enjoyed the taste of Tong Thai's larb, but I don't know how they get their ground pork, if they grind it themselves, or order it . Please be aware that There were hard pieces of either cartilage or bone in his dish so I'm not sure if he would order it again. Yellow curry was nice and thick. Loved the flavors, would order it spicier next time and would love to try their other curries too. This place is six minutes away from the kiddo's soccer field where he practices 3 times a week. I will definitely be back, if anything, I'd order some samosas and Thai teas for our travel back home. read more

We stopped by Tong Thai on our road trip for the first time to pick up takeout food. Service was really good and food tasted great so we decided to stop by to dine in on our drive back.

Pad Cha Tong Thai beef: 7.5/10: little meat, but sauce is flavorful. Pineapple fried rice 9/10: very good, the fried rice is not sticky or wet like other restaurants. Mango salad 9/10: Spicy level 1 is pretty spicy. The salad is flavorful, definitely recommended. For now, this is definitely my fav Thai place in Folsom. read more
