I've visited several Thai restaurants in town. Every single one has its own taste, flavor. I keep coming back to Drunken noodle, because of the welcoming staff, amazing flavor and reasonable prices. Thank you for being part of this midtown community. read more

Greater as soon as we walked in and directed to a seat. The Thai tea is so yum, very sweet which I love. The bathroom is gender neutral but is located behind the counter which struck me as a little odd. Pad Thai was good with a large portion. read more

Excellent ambience and service right up front. Be aware that there will probably be a wait during rush times but well worth the wait. Perfect little menu with a mix of noodles and dumplings. Of course we over ordered because we want to try everything and everything we tried was great. This is definitely a place that I would come back to every time I visit Sacramento. read more

Came here with friends after snowboarding at Boreal Mountain Resort and it was exactly what we needed. The portions were generous and everything tasted delicious. I ordered the Vegan Pad Thai and it was especially good. One unique item here is the Crispy Pad Thai, which I had never heard of or tried before. I'll definitely order it again next time I'm in the area. The service was friendly, and the inside had a very chill, relaxed vibe. Definitely a great spot to stop by after a day on the slopes. read more

My husband and I have patronized Drunken Noodle twice in the past two months; once for a sit down lunch, the other for takeout dinner. We were pleased both times. The portions are large, and quality of the food is outstanding. For lunch, I had the Silver Noodle Salad. It was filled with shrimp and chicken, along with lots of fresh greens and vegetables. The lime dressing was great. For takeout, I ordered the Drunken Noodles with chicken. Once again, the dish was packed with chicken and fresh vegetables, and the flat rice noodles were cooked perfectly (nothing worse than soggy, over cooked noodles!). I can't wait to try one of the curries on our next visit. BTW.....the staff are very friendly and efficient. read more

My daughter and I were looking for some Thai food downtown yesterday and we came across this cute little spot on J street.The place is very cozy and the staff were very welcoming. We decided to order family style and got 3 entrees-Drunken Noodle with Chicken-Thai Fried Rice with Chicken and Se Ew with Beef. All 3 dishes were excellent with just a plethora of traditional flavors from each dish,but my true favorite was the Drunken Noodles.The noodles were perfectly textured fully taking on the flavors from the spicy garlic sauce and basil-the veggies in the dish were cooked great and definitely something I will order again on a return visit. read more

8/3/25 While in Sac for convention party of 10 we came to Drunken Noodle after some yelp research woohoo. They were very accommodating for a large party. Not a very big restaurant. We were able to call ahead and let them know a large party was coming . They were ready for us . Service was exellent . Food was great. We ordered a little bit of everything as seen in pics. Our server Cookie was his name I believe what receipt said ,was awesome. Really took care of us. The food was authentic and had really great flavor. We all really enjoyed . Definitely would go back . If I'm the midtown sac try them out . Enjoy !!!! read more

Staff was welcoming and attentive. But dropped one star for papaya salad (that's all I ordered) their Medium was more of a mild. Thai papaya is usually refreshing with a balance of sour, sweet, and salty. But this was just straight up salty water. :( I'm sure their other items are better. But if you are looking for Thai Papaya, this ain't it. read more

Every time I am in Sacramento I have to stop at drunken noodles. It has been one of my favorite spots for a couple years. I have shared many meals with my friends and now they get to also enjoy the food with their family . The food is always delicious. Their service is wonderful and we can never go wrong with the dollar sake shots. read more

This was good Thai food! I asked for my tofu to be cooked crispy and they did a good job, and there was an abundance of cashews in my order so I loved that. Our server didn't ask what level of spice we wanted, and I forgot to specify so there was NO spice, and that was disappointing. Also, none of the tables had any condiments and we had to flag the server down to request it. There was nothing special about the interior of the restaurant, but they did have some artwork on the wall that appeared to be for sale...love it when restaurants support local (I assume) artists! I don't eat meat so I didn't try my friend's Thai fried rice with beef, but she said it was good once she added some chili sauce. read more

The Pad Thai here is a 10/10 seriously one of the best I've had in a while! Perfect flavor, great texture, and generous portions. My husband got the papaya salad, which leaned a bit sweet. We ordered it mild, but I think it could've used more spice. Luckily, they have chili sauce on the side so you can adjust it to your liking. Overall, still tasty. I'd give it a 7/10. The red curry was really good too and came with purple rice, which was a nice touch. Another solid 7/10. Service was fantastic! Our server was super friendly and seemed to recognize the regulars, which is always a good sign. I also loved that you can choose your spice level for every dish such a thoughtful detail. Only downside: the smell when you first walk in. It's kind of a mix between strong cleaning supplies (like Clorox) and a damp dirty towel. Honestly, that's what kept me from dining in sooner. But the food and service absolutely make up for it, and I'm glad I finally gave it a chance read more

I've been to this place many times in the past, and it was always good, but my most recent visit was really disappointing. We ordered chicken drunken noodles for takeout, and when we opened the box, it looked sad, it had no color, no wok char, and it didn't seem like it had been properly stir-fried. The flavor was bland, the chicken tasted plain, and there was barely any spice. It didn't resemble drunken noodles at all. I ended up just eating the noodles and throwing the rest away. Unfortunately, this was my last visit. It's not worth paying for parking and then paying for food that's unseasoned and not cooked properly especially from a place known for drunken noodles. And the guy who took my order was rude too and also never asked me what spice level. read more

Service was friendly and quick. We got sat 40 min before closing so we were in and out. Brought us waters right away which is appreciated. Only ordered fried calamari to share. They don't have rings and legs here it's more large diced pieces that are breaded and fried. The sweet and sour sauce was good, not too sweet. I appreciated that the calamari was not too salty and that they were cooked perfectly, just lightly fried so there's a crispy element yo every bite. Ambiance is very casual here, bathrooms are towards the kitchen on the left: read more

Got the drunken noodles and it was every bit of delicious as others said. The spring rolls were also very fresh. My favorite part was that they gave a great amount of peanut sauce. Normally the sauce is never enough but they got the portions right. The portions are very generous. A definite plus! The service was very friendly and sweet. I would be back to try some of the other dishes. read more

Powered by Coconut, Drunken Noodle is a small Thai food establishment serving family style flavorful, filling food. The service was curious and prompt and the food came. They also have $2 IPA beer specials. Out within 10 minutes of ordering-we went on a weekday for dinner. I would highly recommend this eatery if you are in the mood for thai. They have one bathroom which is tucked behind the counter. It was clean and smelled decent. Metored street parking available. read more

I ordered delivery from Door Dash. The egg rolls were not soggy and quite crispy when I received my order. There was not much flavor to the egg rolls. I've had better at other similar locations. What I really enjoyed was the ground chicken with basil. I requested medium spice, which was as expected. I really liked the crispy edges on the fried egg. I will return as I would like to try their noodle dishes. read more

We went there for dinner and ordered fried spring rolls, pumpkin curry (chicken), papaya salad (mild) and phad se ew (wider flat noodle dish). Everything was very tasty and fresh. Everything had a good flavor. The service was excellent and our server was really nice and was also tentative, making sure we were happy with the food and that we had everything we needed. The space was quite small, but nothing to complain about. We were seated right away. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to have good Thai food! read more

One of my favorite Thai places! Not super expensive but delicious! Staff is friendly.

Food was pretty good overall. The yellow curry was great, but the eggplant and sweet and sour chicken were too saucy for my taste. Pineapple fried rice was a great texture but there was a spice that was a bit overpowering. Coconut shrimp were great. read more

Great small sort of "hole in the wall" Thai restaurant. Called ahead for a table after our play at the Sofia. They did hold a nice 4 top for us. We noticed many to go orders were coming in, and a few inside tables were taken as well. We had the drunken noodles (of course) and they were a little different than what I had experienced before Also noticed that there were not that many noodles in the dish. Also had the most delicious green papaya salad and a pumpkin curry. All were fabulous! Prices were decent too. read more

3 of us for dinner on a quiet Saturday Memorial May weekend. Place only 20% occupied. And this place is the very definition of a family run humble eatery. Nothing fancy here folks. Ah, the food though... So satisfying. Green papaya salad is piquant. Cool, crisp and refreshing. Fried calamari is crunchy alas a little rubbery but, of course, I ate every single one. Meal highlight: Red pumpkin curry with tofu. Richly smooth curry. Just a hint of spice. Many flavors that develop in the mouth after a swallow. Drunken noodles have the signature smoky flavored wok roasted chow fun. The mix of ingredients held each of their own flavors. With 2 glasses of wine this yeoman feast cost $74. A bargain in 2024. I'm a Sacramento newbie, moved here two months ago. After the meal I saw Thai Basil across the street. Is that where the crowd of Thai diners are eating? read more

I randomly found this place and have been a little addicted. There has never been a wait and the food is always consistently good. My go to dishes are always the need salad, pad thai and pad see ew. I loved their tom yum noodles soup too. It has good flavor and just the right amount of spices for me. I've always gone during lunch time and the portions are very generous. read more

Came here on a Thursday around 7, the restaurant was practically full, I was seated at the last open table. I got the fresh rolls and chicken kao soi. I found the peanut sauce with the fresh rolls to be good but missing something so I added a bit of chili sauce. The kao soi was delicious and huge. Servers were friendly. read more

Great Thai food in Midtown Sacramento After coming from a 3-hour event we were starving. We originally tried for a dumpling place but the waitlist was too long so we looked for elsewhere to eat. I had called prior to arriving to make sure that there was no waitlist. We were confused at first of the location. We were at the right address but the sign outside said The Coconut. At this point we didn't care anymore. We were starving and it was hot at 107° to be waiting outside. We went in and were seated immediately. We ordered the following: Chicken Pad Thai, BBQ Chicken, Coconut Shrimp w/ a side of Brown Rice and Red Curry (to go). I ordered the Pad Thai w/o the bean sprouts so my hubby can enjoy it. He's not too fond of Thai food but I know what he likes so I ordered for him. I got him the BBQ Chicken and he enjoyed it. My Pad Thai was full of flavor. Loved the sweet and savory sauce. The fresh toppings brought out the tangy flavor and turned out my hubby enjoyed it too (as long as I order it without the bean sprouts) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Fast and friendly service. Pleasant first time experience. The restaurant has a modest size dining room. Street parking. Review #3079 read more

Always Great Thai Meals @ Drunken Noodle! SITREP My theatre buddy Allen was coming out from Folsom to my hood and was in the mood for some some "spicy Asian" cuisine. Seriously: look no further than Drunken Noodle -Midtown. THE SETUP Allen really only had one criterion and that was for a vegetarian dish. The wonderuful thing about Thai cuisine is that EVERYTHING starts out as a vegetarian dish, so no problem there. LE MENU Allen zoned in on a great veggie enhanced stirfry with some yummy looking steamed red rice. https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/8AW92iRAmf-G3eTXYpGoRw/o.jpg I focused on my signature feature @ Drunken Noodle: that being the DRUNKEN NOODLE plate. OH so good with it's mix of seafood, delicate noodles, and steam veggies. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/drunken-noodle-midtown-sacramento-4?select=UPhVgbZ4WaTRSwXzZAq4SQ THE LOWDOWN Allen and I were satiated to our hearts desire and we couldn't have asked for 2 better dishes to satisfy our hunger! read more

We love this place every time we're here! Smells super good upon entering. Service is quick and the food never disappoints.

So, I have been raving about this location's drunken noodles for a couple years now, I feel like I should try other dishes, but every time I get there, I have to order the drunken noodles because it's perfection. This last time I was feeling like green curry and well a lot of places do you have a nice green curry this has the largest serving and it comes with rice and with taxes about $15 which is quite reasonable these days. I absolutely love the greenery well there wasn't a ton of chicken. There was plenty and the amount was more than I could eat I will definitely be ordering this again. Word of caution is that when you say medium spicy you're gettingwhat other places would call hot so if you're not a spice person say barely any spice or no spice because they like their spices, I love this place. read more
