I've given this place a few tries - but have never been impressed. I love fresh spring rolls and these are easily the most bland, strange rolls I've had anywhere. It's just regular spring mix with a tiny piece of tofu inside. Other than that food has been bland and lacks fresh Thai flavor. I wish I could say otherwise! read more

The lady said " no msg " but I could tell she had no idea what I was asking . I still need to know if they use MSG ....in there food ? Very yummy food ....almost to good . read more

Hands down best Pad See Ew I've ever had. We got the pad see ew, pa-naeng curry, and fried tofu. All vegetarian. The fried tofu was cut a little thicker and fried a little lighter than I prefer, but dipping sauce and curry were on point. And, like I said, BEST PAD SEE EW EVER. Perfectly sweet and savory. Definitely check out this little gem if you're around read more

I'm vegetarian and I ordered all my vegetarian food for delivery. I gave you specific directions not to add chicken or shrimp to my pineapple fried rice and to replace it with fried tofu. I pretty much got the opposite of what I requested and now cannot enjoy my meal or dinner read more

Delicious! Amazing to find such excellent fare in a small town. It's our go to Thai in Grass Valley.

A complete rip off. Ordered the seafood medley, 17$ for less than a handful of bite-sized seafood pieces, instead a giant box of green beans and onions. When they packaged the order for door dash they just put the liquid sauce in the take out box instead of in a to go cup so it was pooled in the bottom of the plastic bag and soaked everything making a HUGE mess. The sticky rice (the 17$ doesnt include rice to make matters worse) was so dry in the middle god only knows how long it had been sitting out or how old it was. I shouldve listened to the bad reviews. This restaurant clearly isnt passionate about what they do and it's clear by the way they handle their food. I work for a local buissness and will not be referring anyone here anytime soon. read more

Best Tom Kha I've ever had. Really great fried tofu and pad Thai as well. Clean restaurant with friendly staff.

Good Food, Unhappy Staff I have dined in at this place a couple of times and both times the food and service were quite good. I decided to return and order to-go. The person taking my order seemed upset. When I asked if I could have certain items omitted from my dish which I did on my last two visits the person told me "we won't do that for that dish" then proceeded to point me in the directions of dishes that could be modified. I decided to try something new, ordered one of the dishes which I was allowed to make omissions on, got my food home, and discovered they included the items which I requested to be left out anyhow. By that time I didn't want to go back and deal with the person taking my order, largely because I didn't want to deal with the person who originally tried to take my order. If you choose a job in the service industry, your job is to be at least pleasant. If you can't do that, fake it better. I won't be returning on account of service. read more

We love this place. I have had Thai from tons of different places but this particular restaurant ranks high up there with the best of them. Vegetarians, go for the Veggie Drunken Noodles. You won't be disappointed. As an added side note though, their food spice can be pretty hot. If you aren't a fan of your mouth catching fire, get your Drunken Noodles non-spicy and order some hot oil on the side. read more

I just had some yellow curry, pad Thai and steamed right delivered. The yellow curry came in a container which was 99.9% all juice. Just a few slices of chicken, one piece of potato and 3 slivers of carrot. The pad Thai was ridiculously spicy. The only this that was made decent was the steamed rice. I am so disappointed. Don't waste your money. read more

The food is always incredible. The service is quick. Our favorites are the pineapple rice with shrimp, and the red tofu with three chilies.

I wanted to give Chandra a fair shot, despite being a huge fan of another local Thai spot. On my first visit, I tried my favorite, the yellow curry, and was sadly let down as it was terribly bland. I moved on to the drunken noodles on the next trip and they were so good I went at least once a week for weeks to get my fix! Unfortunately, I noticed a pattern when ordering and picking up of unfriendly wait staff... I continued going despite this, as the dish really is fantastic! But ultimately, this pattern continued, some days worse than others and I eventually stopped going a few weeks ago. Maybe it's just me, but I'm not terribly fond of feeling like an annoyance when trying to order from an establishment! Maybe we'll be back, and hopefully next time we will feel a little more welcome. read more

Too much oil and salt which were the only flavors I could detect. Pad Thai noodles, and flat rice noodles in our other dish were over cooked and stuck together in a mass. Suggestion to Chandara: visit Cocodine Thai in Chico, California to learn about how to cook your food so it looks and tastes fresh and flavorful. read more

This is hands down the best Thai food in town, and we have eaten at all of them. No other Thai restaurant compares to the freshness, flavor, and spice. Authentic Thai food at its' best!! We recently dined in the restaurant and have not stopped talking about Chandara My husband is beyond hooked and wants to eat there every night. read more

What a treat to have another Thai restaurant in Grass Valley. We all enjoyed our dinner... one Pad Thai and two curries, red chicken and green duck. Service was excellent...a far cry from our friends in downtown GV. Speaking of downtown, parking here is much easier. Prices are slightly lower than Taste of Thai. The food was fresher. Welcome Chandara Thai!! read more

This is my local Thai restaurant. They are consistently great! O highly recommended thoer hot and sour soups. Best thing on the menu.

Chandara Thai - Potstickers - Thai Near Me - Grass Valley, California

See all

I want so badly to like this place as it's one of very few Southeast Asian restaurants in the county, but this was probably the worst Thai food I've ever had. My meal was very basic, cashew chicken with jasmine rice and a dessert of mango and sticky rice. All the rice was incredibly gummy and lacked the typical floweriness of jasmine, the cashew chicken was just a brown blob with canned sliced carrots. Zero spice and absolutely no flavour. The mango with sticky rice had great mango, but the rice was just awful. I tossed most of my meal unfortunately, hopefully it's just a fluke. read more

Extremely disappointed. Pad Thai was very dry and not tasty at all. Pork was dry and tough. Egg rolls were like they were bought in the frozen food section of Raleys and heated up in a micro wave. I had take out and the price went up $10 over the advertised prices in the on line menu. We had been there about six weeks prior and loved it. Maybe different owners but I won't go back again. read more

We have been going to Chandara Thai off and on since it opened. It has always been good. However, the last couple of times we have been there, it seems to have improved quite a bit! They are very pleasant, cook your meal to order, and pay attention to the details. Highly recommend Chandara Thai. read more

Very glad to have found a good Thai restaurant in Grass Valley. We love their papaya salad, satay chicken appetizer, Pad Thai with chicken, fried rice with chicken, Tom yum soup with Prawns, Tom yum noodles soup are so tasty and yummy. read more

Whoever the young woman was at the counter claiming to be "manager", I feel sorry for you. I've never been treated so horribly in a restaurant. Saw other customers she turned away (AN HOUR AND 15 MINUTES BEFORE CLOSING) leaving shaking their heads as well. She wouldn't give me her name, and I said "So you know what you're doing is wrong?" and she smirked and nodded. Disgusting. This restaurant needs to rethink their night time staff members because they are tanking your restaurant. Food was decent, but we won't be back. Rude employee was working on the evening of 10/16, had a pony tail and a tattoo on her arm and claimed to be manager - if she is, her position needs to be revoked. read more

Ordered the green curry with jasmine rice to share with my mom for lunch, I'm no Thai food expert, but I definitely enjoyed our meal! It was nice and hot and a good amount of spicy, and easily enough to feed both of us! With COVID you can't eat inside right now, but there's cute little tables outside the restaurant and plenty of shade. Overall I would come here again! read more

worst service ever. Food was disgusting. I gave this place 3 tries. I'll never go back.

Ordered take out last night and the food was ready on time and so delicious. We had Pra Ram Rong Song with chicken, Garlic Lovers with chicken and fresh spring rolls. Everything was so fresh and nicely seasoned. The portions were significant so we have leftovers for lunch today. Have had their Pumpkin and Pineapple curries in the past, and they were very tasty! We used to go there to "eat in" but now it's "take out!" read more

Our first meal and we loved it! The food is fresh, tasty, not greasy or too salty or sweet but just right. Fast service and good COVID protocols. read more

I love good Thai food, and this restaurant delivers exactly that. I generally go with the pad Thai and the Penang curry, both delicious. Price is comparable to other Thai places in our area. read more

Appreciate the staff here. They always seem so collected. Love the peanut sauce! And best Thai tea in town!

The Chicken Noodle Soup is very flavorful and delicious. The Drunken Noodles are very spicy and beyond addicting! The Green Curry was also completely on point. I am very excited to find this new restaurant and highly recommend it to all in the area. read more

So good, my new favorite Thai restaurant in town. The Panang Veggie/Tofu curry is to die for!

My fav Thai place around. Staff is always nice and the red curry is SO GOOD!! I make excuses every week to go there. Highly recommend

Hands down my favorite Thai restaurant, although it used to be a close call between here and Coconut on T in Midtown sac. Favorite dishes include the pineapple curry 100% recommend trying, drunken noodles, pineapple curry rice, and most recently the silver noodle salad! read more

The gals treat Door Dashers with disrespect! The two gals up front did not acknowledge two of us waiting in the lobby. When I asked if she could PLEASE just check to make sure that the restaurant had the customer's order, the gal responded with, "I don't work for Door Dash." Then a customer that was waiting for an order she called in, said that she won't eat there again after hearing the response s. read more

I have lived in NYC, Seattle, and the north Bay Area and have had some really good Thai food. This place totally knocks it out of the park. The food is absolutely delicious. The folks here know what they are doing. Look forward to eating here again. read more

I came by this surprise package, while making a trip visiting Nevada City. After a week of junk food, pizza, and other bland taste, we were really want to get some Thai spicy. We checked out Sopa first, since it was close by, but the queue was very long. So we decided to check out Yelp, and drove by to pick up beef basil with fried egg, tomyum noodle Thai style. Just need to disclose that I am Thai native, so usually we judge if Thai place is decent enough by just ordering a staple dish like Beef Basil, which I did. The result was probably one of the most authentic taste around, almost comparable to those top Basil street vendor place in Bangkok. I talked to the owner, and learned that she just have this place for two months. So if you like authentic Thai taste, here should be a good place for getting one in this area. I am sure will stop by again. Note: if you want the real authentic one that not too spicy, asked for Beef Basil with only Thai Basil leaf, nothing else. And ask for spicy level: one chilli. read more

I can't stop coming back here, please send help. Good food, prepared well, good flavors, fresh ingredients, friendly staff, nice space, and usually quiet. read more

Pretty bland if you ask me. I asked for spicy I didn't get it. My grandmother is from Thai land. I know that food. This isn't authentic Thai food. read more

Really good. I got the Pad Thai and I liked that it was extra "saucy" which I've never seen before. I ordered it medium but didn't notice the heat but the flavor was really good. My husband enjoyed the duck curry. read more

One of the best Thai places in the area now. Absolutely KILLER panang Curry. All their curry are amazing. Great atmosphere too with beautiful wood decor. read more

This is my favorite Thai restaurant by far and to have it in Grass Valley, what a blessing!
