I've come here multiple multiple times it is SO yummy!! The service is always pleasant, and the food is just delish for great value. I love the ambiance inside the restaurant, and drinks are top notch. It's the place I bring all my friends who visit, which speaks to how much of a fan fav it is! read more

Wow! Amazing food, ambiance and service. Our first time here. Our son recommended it and it was the best experience we've had in a long while for Thai food. We will be back. Tip: Park in the parking structure. You're going to need the walk after all the great food. read more

Food: this has been a popular spot amongst my friends, their drinks are all very solid and the vibes are so cute. Came here last night with my boyfriend and another friend to catch up and hang out together. We ordered family style, crab fried rice was decent but I feel like I did not taste enough crab inside, red curry with fried tofu was also good and savory but not quiet as good as panang curry I had elsewhere, and khao soi noodles was good and satisfying too but I was not a fan with the pickled veggies mixed in. Golden triangle had a kick to it and was strong alcohol profile, I was nicely buzzed after just half the drink. Price: all three dishes and drink and tax and tip combined, it cost $87. If I remember correctly, each entree ranges usually $16-21, and pork belly protein is $3 extra. Ambiance: really cute with lots of colorful decorations on the walls and ceilings. There are tables/bars in the front section and another similar sized back section with more tables, past the restrooms. Great place for dates and friend hangouts! Servcie: great service, people taking our orders, especially the asian man who seemed like the manager, were all smiles and friendly and welcoming. He said the golden triangle was good and similar to old fashioned, and we liked the drink! No issues with getting our foods served, refilling our water, and getting our check later Parking: I usually park in the free outside lot right next to krak boba/shake shack strip, and walk over about 5 minutes to the restaurant. Did not have issue finding an available spot during weekday dinnertime read more

the food is bomb, the service is bomb, the decor and energy is bomb I will say though, that although their location isn't hidden, the font of their sign wasn't super clear so when I was there the first time, it was sort of hard to spot. FOOD I usually get their tom kha and red curry with skirt steak. Their food is traditional and modern at the same time! They also have options for spice levels which I appreciate because I get a mild or non spicy level and then ask for chili oil on the side to have with each bite (which I think is made in house because the little crunchies in the oil are like no other). The meat is always perfectly cooked and tender and the veggies are never mushy. The flavors in the dishes are amazing and I love that they have a happy hour menu for late night eaters like me. Only thing I wish they had was a combination seafood and meat option for their proteins. I would've loved to have my tom kha soup with some fish, mussels, chicken, and shrimp. But the chicken tom kha was delicious none the less. SERVICE Every employee that I encountered was super friendly and had great options and advice on what to order with which meats. They also checked up on my table multiple times to make sure our food was great. I really appreciate an attentive server I always say that their way the employees treat the guests are a reflection of how they are treated as employees; which seems to be great. And when we are having conversation with the servers, it feels like genuine convo and not forced. They are also very responsive and quick with the meals! AMBIENCE I will say that this is not your average Thai restaurant. They serve alcohol which is perfect for their location in downtown Redlands, and they have live music (not sure if that's every day or just weekends). Sometimes it's a DJ and sometimes it's a live musician. Despite it being pretty loud in there, the music is tasteful and enjoyable. It's overall a great experience and the food is so delicious. This is for sure a must-try restaurant read more

Aroi Mak Mak - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

5/23/26 8:30pm Super cute place and vibe with live music. There was about an hour wait so my husband and I sat at the bar. We tried the trio shots and Leo beers. The shots were unique and tasty but we couldn't finish the one with the whip on top. Too pungent for our palate. We ordered the cucumber salad 10/10, drunken noodles 5/10, steak ginger stir fry 7/10 and crab fried rice added steak 10/10. Would go back for the cucumber salad but maybe ask for less spicy cause I was sweating!! And the crab fried rice cause it was super good. Bartender was super sweet, thorough and helpful. Bummed I didn't get her name. She wore glasses and dark hair. read more

Aroi Mak Mak - Left drunken noodles, top center ginger stir fry and right crab fried rice. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

Little gem located in Downtown Redlands! The restaurant decor is vibrant and fun. Service was great. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive the whole time. Cocktails: Sorry Sorry Sorry 4/5 - Refreshing but also had a slight smokey taste to it. Great for mezcal lovers. Silk Saan 3/5 - They warned us that this drink was VERY spicy and indeed it was. There is serrano pepper in it. My fiancé likes spice so he enjoyed it. Food: Moo Thawt (Fried Pork Belly) 4.5/5- The pork was fried perfectly and so good paired with the sticky rice. The garlic fish sauce was delicious and cut some of the fattiness from the pork belly. Khao Soi (Curry noodles) 4/5 - Deep rich flavor. Noodles had a nice texture. You can add whatever protein you like. I chose ground pork. Tom Kha Soup 4.5/5 - Very creamy. We added chicken as a protein. I like that there were big chunks of chicken and mushrooms in it. read more

Amazing food, vibes, and drinks! I highly suggest getting their Morning Glory appetizer, their house sauce is out of this world. I did have an eye for gluttony when I was ordering, so for three of us we got the morning glory, tom kha soup, fried mushrooms, crab fried rice, pad thai, and khao soi. Everything was well worth it here! I was in utter shock at the quality. I did sit in the back room, so the service was a little slow, but the food definitely made up for it! read more

Aroi Mak Mak is such a fun spot to visit, whether it's for dinner, drinks, a good night out, or all of the above! The place itself is decorated very nicely, and they have a DJ later in the night to elevate the mood even further. All the plates I've tried have been great. Service is good, sometimes a little slow, but always friendly. read more

One of the best ambiance in the area for socializing. I went on Friday around 7pm w/ 3 other friends it was about a 30 min wait. I ordered the Pad King (Ginger Stir Fry) w/ fried tofu and it was decent, but wish there was more flavor and more portions. It was pretty small for the price you pay. My friend ordered the Curry Noodles w/ tofu and that was better than my dish. Great place for socializing and drinks, although I didn't get any drinks this time. read more

Cool drinks, nice decor and service that stays open late! Food was good but fell short in a few minor areas. Honestly, the staff here are awesome so it pains me to give a 4 star. For service, definitely a 5! Cocktails: Bang Ra Chan 9/10 I loved this cocktail and my friends who tried it agreed that it was good! Such a nice mix of sweet, aromatic, and a subtle mix of hard liquors made this a winner. I adore the use of kaffir leaf and passion fruit. Very refreshing. Sorry, sorry, sorry 6/10 Friend ordered this one and didn't seem to like it much. Presentation is really cool with it being in an Asian style bowl, but i think it's largely preference on the taste. Mezcal lovers will enjoy it!! Khao Soi (Chicken Thigh) 8/10 A solid iteration of this classic. I didn't have anything particularly good or bad to say but it hit the spot for me. Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) 5/10 I think this is where the menu fell short. Thin noodles were used instead of the usual wide rice noodles. The flavor profile felt off, though the spice was strong and good at the "very spicy" level, which was one tier below "Thai spicy". Deep-fried mushrooms 5/10 I had high hopes for these, but they were cold when served due to being thin and left out perhaps. Despite being oyster mushrooms, they felt very thin and dry. Garlic aioli did not have much flavor. Not worth the 12.99 or so Overall I'd still come back, for the drinks, fun decor, and great service! read more

Popped in for dinner on a Saturday night around 7 and they were getting crowded! Thankfully we got seated right away at the bar. We ended up ordering the fried branzino and a Pad Thai. They were both phenomenal. Fried fish fried to perfection and came with a side of sauce/salsa, limes and white rice. Pad Thai was also great! read more

Super yummy food and drinks. I had the papaya salad, slow cooked pork, and the silk saan. The spicy drink paired perfectly with my meal, eventhough, I only took a bite of my pork. The service was great everyone was friendly. The restaurant is a cute little slice of Thai history, with a tuk tuk tucked away in the back I would absolutely come here again. read more

SO I have been to this place maybe 5 times so far AND if I lived closer I would've probably been there EVERY NIGHT so maybe it's a good thing I don't in fact live closer. There are some must try's: khao soi, laab street wraps, fried mushroom sandwich I am the kind of person who orders the same thing every time but at this place, I order something different each time because their food is so interesting, unique and authentic. 5/5 for the ~VIBES~ 5/5 for the staff (some of them also work at slow bloom coffee house which is also amazing) 7/5 for the food which NEVER misses And as a bonus if ur not from the area, you can walk around downtown Redlands and maybe hit up the overland for some drinks after or pop into a few shops :) read more

We came here with pretty high expectations after hearing good things. I work near Redlands, so I was really hoping this could become a convenient go-to spot. I was here with my partner, who is Thai, and we're both very familiar with traditional Thai food--we've also been to Thailand multiple times. The food wasn't bad, but it just didn't hit the way we were hoping. The flavors felt more fusion than traditional, which just isn't really our thing when we're craving Thai food. We ordered the moo yang, and one of the pieces of pork had a big vein running straight through it, which was pretty off-putting and made it hard to eat. The Pad Thai was another miss for us--it had a really strong lemongrass flavor but was missing the tang of tamarind. The khao soi was another miss; instead of being a curry-based soup, it came out as a super thick, saucy noodle dish. Given all the hype, we left feeling kind of let down. To top it off, I ended up with a stomach ache later that night, which didn't help the overall experience. The This place might work for people who enjoy a more fusion-style take on Thai food, but if you're looking for something closer to traditional Thai flavors, it may not be the spot. read more

Had pork belly and crab fried rice. Amazing. Service is solid, vibe is good Both dishes came with an irresistible sauce altho just lime also tastes great read more

What a cute little hidden gem! Food was delicious! so tasty! I recommend the peanut noodles, medium spicy! Their Thai tea is different from others that I've had. But still good. So much cute and cozy decor. And kept clean. Services were great, very attentive during their busy hours. I can def be back for more read more

Aroi Mak Mak teleports you to Thailand with how the whole place is set up. This place has a great selection of Thai food including having American style Thai dishes with their Thai style sandwiches. The waiter was very nice and informative about their menu. We ordered a couple drinks and one of the drinks was a little sour. The waiter kindly replaced our drink with something else and we were impressed their drink choice. The dishes were phenomenal with their Khao Soi and how it was well made with the option of having different proteins. Overall, I was not disappointed and love how everything came out! read more

Cute ambiance and pleasant service! I was seated in the corner, where one seat was a booth and the opposite seat was a chair. I sat in the booth and noted that the table was lower than preferred. It was pretty uncomfortable by the end of the night, and I found myself slouching over a lot to eat so I recommend sitting at a regular table if you have the choice. The parking situation wasn't too bad on a weekday night. You can park in the lot nearby or even the shake shack, which is a 1 min walk away. The food itself was okay - I ordered the pad see ew with beef, which was flavorful. However, I have had better Thai food elsewhere but this was pretty good for Redlands. The Thai tea was refreshing and sweet. The fried rice was okay as well. Overall, the taste was mediocre for both dishes but nothing outstanding. read more

We LOVE this place! The food is delicious. The service is always friendly and prompt. I also love the vibe in here it's like I'm transported to Thailand.

We happened to find this place through Yelp on our way back from the Palm Springs outlet stores. What a find! The vibe was fun and lively, the service was super friendly, and everything we ordered--from food to cocktails--was delicious. We especially loved the Banana Island Slush. We'll definitely stop by again when we head out to the outlets and make a reservation if we can. The wait wasn't too bad for a Saturday, but we did have to wait about 25 minutes without a reservation. read more

I've been meaning to visit for the last two years now, and finally went for dinner. It was a smaller venue than expected, yet had a welcoming and eclectic atmosphere. The strong amber lights definitely set a chill mood, but also made everything and everybody look super saturated, including the photos. We sat at the bar and a server kindly took drink our orders: the Sunee Spritz, (made of soursop vodka, chareau, peach, prosecco, and seltzer) and Nariphon's Tale (made of cachacha, gin, grapefruit, menthe, lime, guava, coconut, and mint). The latter was my favorite since it was reminiscent of a mint mojito and was refreshing paired with the food. I think the former had a creamier base and a stronger proof. The Khao Soi (curry noodle soup) was the most recommended dish, and I really enjoyed it even though it was saltier than I would prefer. I thought the richness of the broth would complement the tartness of the fermented mustard greens fried rice, but I personally thought they did not have a mutual understanding. Regardless, I loved both dishes! ~ While this place was on the pricier side for Thai eats, the hearty and shareable portions make it a good spot for dates and small parties. read more

I came here with my boyfriend to celebrate his brother-in-law's birthday, and I'm so glad his family are regulars because the staff is always incredibly sweet and goes above and beyond to make us feel welcome. This was my second visit, and both times the food has been more than satisfactory. Every time we go to Redlands, it excites me because I know we're in for a treat. We tried a few different dishes, and no matter what I order, they never disappoint. Everything is packed with flavor, especially this Thai chili in fish sauce that we always get on the side. My boyfriend and his brother-in-law sometimes take a shot of it, and I'm always tempted to join in because it's just that good. The wait for the food this last time was a bit long, but we had an enormous party of around 12 people, so that's understandable. Also, there's this very cute table designed like a bus, which I was told you have to reserve in advance. It's by far the cutest restaurant setting I've seen in quite some time. I'm looking forward to visiting his sister again because we always come here, it's a spot that never fails to deliver. read more

This is a gem of a Thai restaurant. For vegetarians/vegans there are sooo many options all full of amazing flavor. Definitely would recommend the khao soi, basal stir fry and pad se ew. The drunken noodles were good but nothing out of the ordinary. The vibe here is fun, modern with a Thai street style and a cute rickshaw. It can get very loud on the weekends and very very busy but it was definitely worth the wait. They had a DJ playing this weekend so it can be a fun spot for the weekend. The servers are very friendly and our food came out within 15 minutes. Parking is street parking which is a hit or miss but normally we can find parking pretty easily. read more

Really lovely place, with fun decor and friendly service. Girlfriend and I came by on a whim and were seated quickly at the bar, which thankfully doesn't require you to order drinks. Food was delicious and flavorful. and the portion sizes were a lot bigger than we expected, so we had ample leftovers. I definitely recommend the curries, so you can take it home and add more to it--which isn't to say that there's not enough already in it, just that the sauce is that good! Note also that the tofu they give you is the good stuff that's pre-fried, not just the white blocks straight out of packaging. They're probably better than the meat proteins, honestly. I also want to mention that I received my order of egg rolls for free-- Whether the kitchen had forgotten it or was just really slow, we were done with our meal and had asked for the check without it coming out, and when I mentioned this, the restaurant wrapped some up for me. Thanks a bunch! Will definitely be coming back. read more

Everyone tried various dishes and said everything was good, I got the pad see ew and of course loved it.
