The food was fresh and delicious. When you take a bite of the rice, you can instantly tell it's fresh because it doesn't stick to your mouth and was soft. The spring rolls were tightly wrapped and easy to grab and dip with the lightly sweetened peanut butter sauce. Egg plants were also yummy with the veggies and the shrimp dish also. The service was good and our waters were refilled promptly. If you're in Downtown Livermore and crave some Thai food, definitely check this place out ! read more

I'm going to keep this brief. We used to come here under previous ownership and it was great Thai cuisine. Under new ownership, they have pulled some Thai staples off the menu such as pra ram and Thai iced coffee. We decided to stay anyway and while the food was good, it wasn't exceptional. For two people we paid $130 after tip and only had one alcoholic beverage (a $7.50 beer). We left with only enough leftovers for a small snack for one person the next day. Look, it's good food. The portion sizes are meager and they are missing some really good Thai dishes though. read more

Visited downtown Livermore for the first time and opted to try out Lemongrass Thai for dinner. The restaurant itself is pretty average and has a good amount of seating. Customer service was friendly and attentive, and the menu options were pretty good and extensive. Now for the food, we ordered the fresh rolls as an appetizer along with the special prawn dish, spicy eggplant with tofu, and basil fried rice. The fresh rolls were tasty and had a good amount of veggies, I especially enjoyed the peanut dipping sauce as it paired well with the appetizer. The special prawn dish was okay, I felt it was a bit bland, and didn't have a good variety of vegetables. It tasted alright with rice but I was hoping for more flavor. The spicy eggplant was quite disappointing and didn't have any spice at all. It was nothing to rave about and I did not enjoy eating it. The basil fried rice was possibly one of the better dishes, but overall our meal was very underwhelming. While customer service was pleasant and satisfactory, I will say portions of each dish was good and we had leftovers. However, the meal was not very good, and I was hoping for more flavor. I was surprised that we were not asked about spice level when ordering our food, as that may have helped a bit with the overall flavor or quality of the food. I generally enjoy eating Thai food and this dining experience was not the best unfortunately. I was hoping the entrees would be more tasty. Sadly, I am not sure if Lemongrass Thai is worth visiting. It may be best to try out a different cuisine if you're looking to dine in downtown Livermore. read more

Just not the same- unfortunately under new ownership and new less tasty entrees .Sorry but we were disappointed.

The food here is really good! I would say it's the best Thai in town. Though I will say Ros ni yom is right there with this place flavor wise. The portions are smaller at Ros ni yom. I don't remember the exact names of our dishes but we had rice, noodles and a beef. All were packed with flavor! Serving sizes were good for the price. Service was quick and friendly. They have indoor or outdoors seating. Highly recommend! read more

Came because a friend is vegan. We were very pleased to know that most if not all of the items can be prepared vegan! Lunch portions are big. I enjoyed the chicken yellow curry with brown rice. It was flavorful! Service is attentive & courteous. The ambiance of dining hall is relaxed & clean. read more

Was a super excited as I love thai food, but alas, experience was just okay. Service was fantastic and we were seated promptly, but food fell way way flat. Tom yum soup was the best dish, but was a bit sweet for my liking. I got the salmon banana leaf special. Basil sauce was super super sweet. And the salmon taste frozen and bland. My dad's curry was also just okay, but also very sweet. Like someone dumped brown sugar in it. Not to be funny, but the water was very good. Seriously, I don't know what taps they tapping into, but that water was HIGHLY excellent. Favorite part of the meal. Everything else was meh. read more

I am unsure if this restaurant went through a management change but given the new menus, staff and delivery options I am making this assumption. This change happened recently and I have tried three times to give them the benefit of the doubt but I will no longer order from here and will find a new Thai restaurant. The curry doesn't come with rice over delivery. You must pay extra. Absurd. The meat is the worst cuts and inedible. And the flavors of the dishes are blander. It really seems like they are being cheap and cutting corners, which wasn't the case just months ago. I do not recommend. read more

Ordered the chicken pad thai. Not much chicken. More egg and tofu than chicken. Flavor was spot on, but, not worth $14.95. The spring rolls were good and worth it for $17.95. My husband got the Cashew Nut Chicken for $17.95 and had more chicken than me. I dont see us coming here anytime soon with these prices and quality. read more

My family and I have eaten here multiple times and it's usually good, but this last delivery order was so bad. The quality of food was terrible. I ordered the pad kee mao and my husband got the pad se eew. The noodles on mine had a terrible texture and the flavor was just off. The pad se eew had no flavor and just tasted boiled. I also got a thai iced tea, which was watered down. The only edible food was the crispy vegetarian roll. The food here is not cheap either, incredibly disappointing. read more

I ordered the lunch green curry with white rice from Lemongrass in Livermore, and this was hands down one of the worst meals I've ever had. The curry was unbelievably salty--so salty it was almost inedible. But the absolute worst part was the rice. The "white rice" they gave me was clearly old, dry, and chewy, like it had been sitting out for days. I literally couldn't even eat it. When I called the restaurant to let them know, instead of apologizing or trying to make it right, they blamed the chef for using yesterday's rice--as if that made it any better. The lack of professionalism was shocking. If your staff admits they're serving old food, that's a huge problem. I will NEVER eat here again. Completely unacceptable and incredibly disappointing. read more

Lemongrass Thai Restaurant - Old steamed rice - Thai Near Me - Livermore, California

Came here with my boyfriend on NYE just to find some place that was still open for the night in downtown Livermore and the sole waitress was very accommodating, allowing us to dine in 15 minutes before they were about to close. What we got: shrimp pad thai (2/5) -- way too sweet, I couldn't taste any of the other flavors that typically go on in pad thai green curry (3/5) -- subtle heat, decent flavor, but some of the vegetables were overcooked and there wasn't much meat..also why so expensive just for a side of rice? I was expecting rice to come with the dish itself because you can't eat curry without rice Before tip, the total was ~$52, which to me, is not very worth it for an average tasting meal. Service was good, but I would try out other places when I'm in the area next time. read more

We dined outside as the inside felt too stuffy. Green curry was really good, just the right amount of heat. I enjoyed the salad gai-dressing was very tasty and the romaine lettuce have a nice crunch. Hardly any avocado or apple in it though. Pineapple fried rice was so rich in flavor so we had to order white rice to go with the green curry. read more

Lemongrass Thai is our go-to spot for Thai food, even though we have to drive from Pleasanton. We usually get it to go so round trip it takes over 45 minutes just for the drive but it's worth it. We order a bit extra so we can eat for a few days and the food is always delicious and fresh every bite. The staff is very polite and accommodating even though they are always very busy. We've been coming here for years and have never been unhappy about anything. I'm getting hungry right now just thinking about the place. read more

Lemongrass is definitely our favorite Thai restaurant in Livermore, or any place outside Danville. Given the number of options, that's saying something. I like the quiet atmosphere that lets you look out the big front window to First Street. I had to ask them to turn down the bass-heavy music, however. The Wife ordered her standard pad see ew, with Thai tea, and was very pleased. She noted that there was plenty of egg in the dish, which she likes. I ordered an emerald curry that used the green curry sauce, from the specials menu. It contained prawns, scallops, chunks of salmon, with pumpkin and tomato. It was excellent, paired with a Concannon Pinot Grigio (nice pour!). This will be the place we go to the most in town. read more

My husband, mother-in-law, and I came here on Memorial Day as the place we were planning to go was closed. I love Thai food and have a few favs in town, but we were downtown so we decided to give this a go. I had been before in the past and it was alright, but I figured I'd give it another try. We ordered the green curry with roti as an appetizer. The green curry sauce was good, but the roti was incredibly greasy which I didn't really love. For a meal, I ordered yellow curry chicken with brown rice. Mine was good, but a little too sweet for me. I felt it could use a little more spice and less sugar. My husband ordered the masaman curry, and he didn't really like it. We had masaman curry all over Thailand and absolutely loved it, but their version was absolutely nothing like any of the variations we'd ever tried before. I tried a bite and actually felt like it had a very rancid, bad taste. I would not have been able to eat even a full bite of it, and my husband left most of it on the plate when we left. My mother-in-law ordered the tofu pad Thai, and she enjoyed that. Looked really good. All this to say we probably won't be back with other exceptional options in town. read more

The restaurant is located in downtown Livermore The service was good. It seems there was only one person working but she did great attending to all the patrons. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside for lunch because it was a beautiful day. We ordered the following: Fried shrimp egg roll 5/5 : the egg-roll was crispy tasty and it has bacon in it. Tasty! Tom Kha soup 5/5 - the soup was really good. The coconut milk and lemongrass flavor and the warm soup was comforting. I asked to add steamed tofu and it was good. Ka Grapow chicken 3/5 - the dish was good at first it tasted bland but we asked for spicy sauce and it helped with the flavor. Panang Curry 3/5 - I think the dish did not have a lot of flavor. I had to add my soup to my rice to help with the flavor. Plus the portion looked enough but it literally has like a couple bites of chicken in it. Overall, soup and appetizer was good. But, the main dishes were bland and lacking in flavor. It was ok. I had better Thai food in Livermore but they are located right at the downtown area. It's worth a try. read more

The review is about a to-go order. Today was raining. I was nearby and wanted to give another try for this restaurant. Their food is not the best but is fine. It was the last order before they closed for the night. I ordered Emerald curry, Tom Kha chicken soup, vegetable deluxe and brown rice. When I got home, the paper bag was broken and everything fell out on the garage floor. The curry was leaking, luckily it was inside a plastic bag but it was a mess. And the worst was the brown rice was missing. It's really another very bad experience. I love Thai food and really want to enjoy it when I'n traveling around. I hope the restaurant will consider to hold heavy food with double paper bags or a plastic bag; and reminds the staff to double check the food order. Missing orders are one of the main reason to deter returning customers. If both service and food are good, customers are willing to drive long distance and wait for a table to enjoy. read more

Lemongrass Thai Restaurant - Too bad! Broken bag and missing brown rice. - Thai Near Me - Livermore, California

Enjoyed the service and the ambiance of sitting outside. The servers are very helpful and kind. The food is ok. I wish the pad thai was more saucy. They do not have chili flakes but only fish sauce with thai chili which helped give the pad thai a good kick. The roti is ok, a bit doughy for my liking, I wish it was fluffier but the curry sauce was amazing. read more

So here's the thing, I haven't really tried curry before. So I'm not sure the difference between Thai vs Indian curry. However, the red chicken curry here was delectable. Yet another food my boyfriend has yet to try in his life and now loves lol. We ordered the cashew chicken also and we both thought it was super good! There was a DJ going ham on the mic at a nearby bar so unfortunately it was a bit noisy but we chose to sit outside. Their seats inside are very comfortable and is such a nice place for a date night. The staff is super friendly and nice as we were asking many questions on what to order. Thank you! read more

We stopped here for a weekend lunch on a gloomy day weather wise. They have a causal vibe indoors and the ambience is welcoming. The service and staff are friendly and were immediately seated by the window. We ordered the pad Thai with shrimps, red curry with chicken, Thai style fried rice and Tom yum soup. All the items were flavorful, warm and really tasty. Would definitely recommend this place for families and reasonable yet great Thai food. read more

Ambiance and decor is very nice and conveniently located near Bankhead Theater. Service was good. We had the fried shrimp appetizer pad see eew, and pra ram, and rice. Everything was served hot and fresh, but the taste was simply mediocre. The fried shrimp is exactly what was expected, but the pad see eew was heavy on the soy sauce, not much egg or veggies, and the pra ram had a very heavy peanut sauce-almost too thick-and again lacked veggies. We've been here many times so hoping this was a fluke. With that said, we're hesitant to return. read more

Delicious food, wonderful service and amazing portions. The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly.

Catfish and beef salad. It was ok. I have had much better and it's thai so. Beef salad is not something I typically get so I can't compare but it was Allright. I did enjoy it. For the fish, it was definitely salty for me but it was ok for my friend. read more

Always amazing food. Anita was amazing. Se Eew chicken noodles and Pranag curry was so good. Service and food always on point!!!

First time ordering food from here. Ordered 2x SeeWee, 1xPad Thai and 1xBasil fried rice. Ordered take out on our way to Manteca. While eating the SeeWee noodle dish, kiddos found metal scraps in the food. Looks like metal scraps from brush scrubbers or something. So disappointing! Food tasted so-so, but after seeing my kids spit out the metal scraps and since we paid $75 for our lunch, it was very unnerving. This would be our last time going there. read more

Lemongrass Thai Restaurant - Metal scraps in food - Thai Near Me - Livermore, California

I was craving Thai food and since it was the weekend, I always utilize DoorDash for my meals. This place was recommended so I gave it a shot. Pad Thai: Was decently good. The noodles were flavorful and not too sweet. I love the fried tofu because it absorbed the sweetness for me and did not feel overpowering. Unfortunately, the chicken was a let down. It was a bit bland and had no flavor. I felt like it did nothing for the dish. That Ice Tea: Not sure if it was my driver or something, but it tasted really bland. I didn't get any Thai tea flavor at all. I know it was raining cats and dogs on Sunday, but it tasted like I was drinking rain water. Oh well, maybe a dine in experience might be better. Overall, not a bad place. I would give it a try to eat in person next time. read more

I've been coming here for years, so it is about time I do a review. 1. two ways to look at menus: on the window (assuming no one is standing there) or scan the QR code on the table 2. go to the order table setup by the door with your mask on and order your food 3. Pick your table and wait patiently. :) 4. Food will arrive in throwaway containers 5. Enjoy your meal and drinks 6. Bus your own table and toss it in the bins setup for recycle and trash :) Last night's food: Tom Kha (on the sweet side, so I just added chili); Roti with Green Curry (delish! buttery too!) Food is always solid here: my favs: Green curry, some of the best in the area, pad kee mao, penang fish and thai iced tea. read more

We love Thai food. That being said had never tried this place before, so we were excited to give them a shot! Located in downtown, we assumed (without checking Yelp, shame on us) that it was a pretty nice place. Anyway, getting to the point... My lack of stars is due to the following: 1. Cleanliness was lacking. The place was nearly empty (off peak dining hours) and yet most of the tables were covered in crumbs or sticky. 2. Service was poor for a nearly empty restaurant, they never came by to refill our drinks or check on how the food was. The two ladies working the front sat near the kitchen doing who knows what instead of tending to customers. 3. The bowls had chips on the edges which is unsanitary. The sauce lids were also moldy. 4. The food was extremely sub-par. I hardly touched mine and ended up throwing it away. This was due to lack of appetite from the unsanitary conditions. Unfortunately my experience here was poor enough that I won't be returning. There are better options for Thai food in the area. read more
