Plearn Thai Palace — Restaurant in Walnut Creek

It was 8:15 and everything in Walnut Creek closes at 9pm. I was craving Green Curry. We were hungry and just picked this place because they were open. I've tried many of the Thai places all around the WC area and have yet to find one I really like, until now.

All the food is fresh and very well made. The rice was perfect and flavorful. The ambiance and vibe of the overall restaurant was warm, welcoming, and very clean. It is not casual dining but is casual in style. It was late and the owner took our order. He is a really nice guy.

As for the green curry I wanted so much, the steamy coconutty spicy rich chickeny broth with just a bit of heat was perfect. The only thing I would change is to eliminate the green beans but that's purely my taste. My partner had the PatHed, which he loved.

Will we return? Absolutely, and I hope soon!

I am advocating for family owned restaurants everywhere when I ask diners to get up and go out to any of the local family owned restaurants instead of using those delivery services. Those services charge the customers many fees and then also charge the restaurants about 25%. They are killing these wonderful places.

Never forget how much we wanted the shutdown to end, why are we still eating on our couches?

A hidden gem in Walnut Creek and an absolute must-try for Thai food lovers! After trying almost every Thai spot in the Bay Area, this one stands out as the best, hands down. The flavors are vibrant, perfectly balanced, and every dish we tried was a home run.

The service was just as amazing, the waitress was so warm and welcoming, and the chef personally came out to check on us, which added such a thoughtful touch to the experience. Little details like that truly set this place apart.

Don’t miss the Pad Thai, it’s hands-down the best I’ve ever had. The sweet and sour pineapple tofu dish was another standout, with a perfect blend of tangy and sweet flavors.

They even boxed up our leftovers for us, which was the cherry on top of an already fantastic experience. This place has won me over, and I’ll definitely be back often. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and try this...

Just got take out food from them. The lady who got my order was very rude both on the phone and in person. I asked her to tell me how much each item was on my order and she did not want to take the time to tell me and instead aggressively responded “we already made you the food” which was not my concern to begin with. Both pad thais (chicken and beef) were the most bland food we ever had in our lives. So basic and there was absolutely zero veggies in them. Had to squeeze two whole limes and hot sauce in them just to be able to eat them. Absolutely not worth 26$ per dish. If the lady was nice and treated me with respect, i wouldnt even have bothered to come and write this review just for the taste of the food. But if you want to keep a business, you need to...
