I normally wait two visits before I review. The reason, consistency. Unfortunately Thailand to go lacks consistency. Our first visit the food was fresh and colorful. Our second visit was anything but. We ordered the Pad Thai combo, spicy green beans with chicken and mixed vegetables. The Pad Thai was mushy and overly seasoned with fish/clam sauce. It had an aftertaste of what a hamster cage smells like. That’s all we could taste. There were hardly any bean sprouts or egg. The beef was so tough we couldn’t swallow it. The chicken tasted old. After two bites We threw out the Pad Thai. Which was hard for me to do since Pad Thai is my favorite food in the world.
The mixed vegetables tasted like a packet of top ramen seasoning. Overly salty. The vegetables were cooked great but we couldn’t get past the overwhelming amount of sodium.

He was so happy to tell me how much he loved their food and usually ordered delivery, but this time he came in to eat. It was a nice interaction. It's almost an hour away from where I live, but I took the scenic route home from Palm Springs and when I do, I make it a point to come here. Love this place and their friendly staff! Original review 9/2023: Pulled over here to rest after an exhausting 3 hour drive over the mountains from Palm Springs. Mexican food or Thai? Guess which won out?! Thailand - Thai Street Food prepared my favorite dish so fast - Pad Se Ew - (this time with chicken) it practically made my head spin. Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. Lovely ladies were serving tonight, very...
Read moreThis restaurant opened a month ago. I don't remember everything that was ordered but the flavors!
Oh.The.Flavors. The vibrant colors of the veggies. The distinct flavors of each dish. The abundant amount of tofu was generous and quickly devoured.
I didn't leave disappointed. Just disappointed that I would have to wait for another day to eat their food again.
I like that they have everything in to go containers so as to save the hassle from putting things in...
