We were taken good care of by the owner. You can see the high quality fresh veggies they use from the counter while ordering. Amazing flavor and fresh ingredients! I had the Tom Yum and my son had the Yellow Curry. We were blown away by layers of flavors. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes! Thank you Lany! read more

Racha Thai 2 - Tom Yum w/Chicken (front) Yellow Curry w/Chicken (back) - Thai Near Me - Waimea, Hawaii

See all

Dang, the laksa curry is to die for. This is one of those dishes you crave months afterwards. Never fails.

Best tom kha gai I've ever had, including ones I had in Thailand. Packs a punch at x spicy level. Carrots and pumpkin are delicious additions. Perfect on a crisp, rainy Waimea day. read more

Lovely place for authentic Thai food. Very kind and skillful staff. Extremely tasty curry and noodle dishes. Also appreciated the gluten, dairy, msg free commitment and the organic non gmo ingredients. If we lived here, we'd go often! read more

This place is a diamond in the food court of Waimea. Their Pad Thai is epic, the chicken larb salad is amazing, the eggplant stir fry is stellar. You just can't go wrong. We eat at the picnic tables in the back where you can see Mauna Kea while you enjoy the best Thai on the island read more

Racha Thai 2 - Pad Thai with chicken - Thai Near Me - Waimea, Hawaii

No Complaints about the price. I'm used to paying too much for really mediocre food on this island. My Pad Thai I had today was nothing short of outstanding and worth every penny it costs! I've had none better on this island. Do NOT miss this place! We've become used to mediocre as the norm on this island and it's so wonderful to get something great like this. I will return and recommend it to others. read more

Love the pad thai! Always fresh and delicious! Thanks for staying open during the pandemic.

From other reviews, I was expecting a punch of flavor! Sadly that wasn't my experience. The curry flavor was faint. I had to go find salt in order to enhance the flavors. I will try this place one more time though, just in case it was a fluke and they were having an off day. read more

Might be the best Thai food I've ever had. So fresh and authentic, and the best part is that the whole menu is gluten free for those of us celiacs. We had the pad see ew (which I never get to eat because it usually is not gluten free!) and the green curry. All their ingredients are organic and no MSG, and the flavor is incredible. This is such a hidden gem!! read more

Food is delicious and I really appreciate the organic options. I like to curry and beef or chicken with broccoli. stir fry was a bit too greasy read more

This Thai food was amazing!!! I ordered the red curry, papaya salad and the pad thai. It was so good I can't for the next time I get to eat it. What a blessing to have them in Waimea read more

Beautiful authentic fresh Thai food made with love. Great staff, always a pleasant experience.

So glad that you guys are there at the food court.. and wish you guys could have mango curry more often.. still everything else you guys make is awesome too read more

We LOVE this place!! The food is exceptional! Don't let the food court setting fool you. Every meal and even the drinks are amazing! Made with high quality ingredients and very well made! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Not sanitary! Employee came from the men's toilet where it wasn't possible to wash the hands at the same day and touched our food. We protested and got the story 'he had washed his hands' which he didn't. Anyway - over priced - and rubbish and dirt in an ordered Papaya salad. Beware! read more

Amazing! Medium had a good kick to it. Fresh veggies, quick and delicious! Gluten free was no problem. Laksa

This was some of the best Thai food I've ever had. Everything is cooked to order right in front of you with fresh ingredients - you can see the vegetables right there. The pad Thai was the best pad Thai I've ever had. Good vegetarian options with excellent tofu dishes. read more

Let's just start with the pricing... $55 for two people to get food from a food court restaurant (fried rice, Tom kah soup, chicken satay, and two drinks). Fried rice and soup were alright, not worth the price but alright. The chicken satay however... I have never been so disgusted by chicken satay. It must have been weeks old to taste like that. I know I sound like some Karen but I am not usually one to complain. To add on I went in to ask for a refund (which I have never done) and they promptly did so. Or that's what I thought. Just went back to see I was charged full price anyways. I'm not trying to bring this restaurant down just thought someone might like to know this is how they are currently conducting their business (granted Covid is going on). I really do hope this style of management changes and they get on a good path. read more

I am soooo in love with Laksa! Mmmm so delicious! I've tried making it at home, but their recipe is so much better. Also the Larb is fantastic. read more

Good and bad. The crab fried rices is excellent. The cuuries are good, but the pork is half fat and not edible. Overall, 3 out of 5 stars.

We love this place! Delicious, healthy and consistent:). So happy to have them in Waimea!

This place is hidden inside the food court of Parker Ranch store in Waimea. When you walk past Racha Thai, it doesn't look like a popular place but it sure is one of the best Thai food I've had in Hawaii. Lot of vegetarian options and the curries are made to order every time. Had the pho noodle soup and panang curry. Would highly recommend a visit if you're driving from Hilo to Kona via Waimea ! read more

Don't get your food to go. My noodles melted right through the container, spring rolls fell apart upon opening the saran wrap, and curry noodles came in two separate small containers with no easy way to combine them. Aside from that, I'd give food quality 3/5. read more

Probably one of my worst Thai food experiences, good luck & hope they can make some changes & be successful.

Very good! Great for food court Thai food in Waimea Love having the option to get takeout.

It's a little pricy for the portions, but AMAZING and totally worth it. I've only tried the Tom Kha and Green curry so far. id say I'm a Tom kha connoisseur, it's my favorite soup! I eat it weekly, sometimes more during the winter. Their Tom kha is delicious and definitely made with lots of love! I recommend it to everyone I know! read more

Holy Toledo!!!! This place has some of the best curry I've ever had, and I live in Thai town in LA!! The green curry was the TASTIEST and the red curry noodles were unlike anything I've ever had!! The staff was lovely. The food court can be a little weird but they let us take our bowls outside to the benches and it was gorgeous!!!! Don't miss this place if you are in Waimea!!!! read more

As a vegetarian, this is the best food I've had in Hawaii. And we've eaten at several 5 star resorts and ridiculously expensive restaurants with virtually no vegetarian/vegan options. Fresh ingredients and spices. I had the red curry with pumpkin and tofu with brown rice. My husband had pho noodles and a berry smoothie. We spent $40 total and although we had to eat in a food court, we loved it!! We'll be back!! read more
