IMHO Going out to eat was a spur-of-the-moment decision and we ended up at restaurant row on S. Murphy Ave. There are many good dining choices but the mouth-watering pictures of their entrees taped on their windows sealed the deal for Siam Taste. Currently there is only outdoor seating available which we preferred anyway! The outdoor ambience of perfect weather and people-watching was quite enjoyable. There are taped instructions on the tables on how to access the menus via a QR code, plus other drink and appetizer suggestions. There is a minimum $12 per customer. Easy peasy. Our table of four ordered roti, mussamum curry, rock cod, pad thai, and sweet and sour chicken, and two bowls of white rice. EVERYTHING was super delicious and flavorful. Service was friendly and prompt. I am sure we will return here again! read more

Ordered the drunken noodle dish w tofu for takeout and it was EXCELLENT! Best Thai I've had in a while! The noodles were cooked well, the flavor and spice (4) was delicious w a small kick, not too spicy but spicy enough, the tofu was cooked and seasoned very well and the veggies were fresh, green and crunchy. Highly recommend. Can't wait to try more! read more

Been here twice now, and the food is very tasty! Had the duck noodle soup and enjoyed it. The food can get very spicy, esp the curries - def be careful before trying some of the higher spice levels read more

Siam Taste - Drunken Noodle (Pad-Kee-Mao) - Thai Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I have a tendency to order the same things whenever I go to a Thai restaurant. It's usually Panang Curry (I know I'm not the only one!), Pad See Ew, Drunken Noodles, Pineapple Fried Rice or some sort of Tom Yum or Tom Kah dish. The menu here though, is HUGE. There are all kinds of various dishes here which make it difficult to decide if someone wanted to branch out a bit. After browsing a bit my eyes were drawn immediately to the "Chef's special soft shell crab with red curry" dish. I have seen crab listed in Thai dishes before, but never soft shell crab. Visiting Santa Clara for a work trip, it's not everyday I visit this area, and, as I'm a sucker for soft shell crab, and given that I had never seen it anywhere else, I knew I had to order it. I was not disappointed. It was SO GOOD. It was a little spicier than I normally can handle, but given the red curry flavor in addition to the textures of the perfectly cooked green beans and carrots and the subtle flavor soft shell crab coming through, I was thrilled I had decided to order the soft shell crab over any of my more standard choices. The dish had an entire soft shell crab, making the $19.99 price very much a great deal to say the least. I'm very much a textural person, and it was perfect with the soft shell crab being breaded but mixed in with a thick red curry and the crunchiness of the green beans. Ordered Thai iced tea on top of it, and I don't agree with the other review that says it was watered down. Tasted great to me. My coworkers were also pleased with their orders of panang curry with sizzling chicken, and broccoli stir fry with oyster sauce. The latter reminded me of a Chinese dish, and was quite good. Everything hit the spot. I thought the service was quite good, and I will have to say if I'm ever back in the area, it might be hard for me NOT to come back here and order that soft shell crab again. One random comment: Verizon cell data service was non existent here, and I couldn't get the free wi-fi to work. read more

Extremely expensive, the price does not match the quality of the food. The price increases are outrageous, especially because the quality has dropped. read more

Arrived around the vicinity at around 4:20pm. We had to do a little walking to find this restaurant. It was a nice walk, definitely loving the calming relaxing vibes. There's restaurants and bars at every corner and people eating outside enjoying their dinner. As soon as we found the restaurant, it looked closed. From they Yelp page said it was open. We checked and look like no one was there so we decided to do a little more walking to see if we can find other Thai restaurants. Couldn't find any so I called this place, and the nice lady answered and said they open at 4:30pm. We were glad to hear that they just opened so we hurried back here. The food was just what we wanted and tasted sooo good! We ordered sour soup, coconut drink, hot tea, pad Thai, fried calamari, angel rolls (spring rolls), and mango with sticky rice for dessert (I forgot to take a picture of this one) ^_^ read more

Came here right after happy hour at Fuegos and was seated right away. They have outdoor dining and it's not tented. It was busy on a Friday night around 7:30. We ordered Tom yum soup, chicken red curry, eggplant and tofu, and pad Thai. Everything was delicious and service was fast. We ordered American spicy for the dishes and it still tasted spicy. Wine was only $5-6. read more

Such a nice place for dinner - so tasty, and a huge huge vegetarian selection. Very much enjoyed the pumpkin in yellow curry, the soy satay and many other tasty treats! Will keep coming back! read more

This is a decent Thai restaurant in the middle of downtown Sunnyvale. I love that this place has ample outdoor seating and the service is so quick. I came here for Sunday lunch with a party of 4 and we were seated right away. We ordered quite a few dishes and most of them are good! What we got: -Eggplant and beef stir fry: This was deliciously stir fried with fragrant basil and crunchy bell peppers. The eggplant was perfect and not soggy. This dish paired well with some rice. -Forest Curry: their special curry with bamboo shoot, green beans, zucchini, and mushroom! Really good but could be a little spicier. Ordered level 2 spicy and it was not that spicy. -Pineapple fried rice: Comes in a pineapple! This was delicious and sweet because of the pineapple. -Jan Pad: This honestly just tastes like a mild pad Thai. I wanted to try something new but next time I'd order something else. Overall a great place for an affordable lunch! read more

The food is super delicious. The staff is kind, helpful, and speedy! Definitely my all around favorite Thai place!

Came here twice in July as wife purchased two Groupon coupons. Sunnyvale has dozens of Thai restaurants, in fact at least two on Murphy Street next to the train station. This is the questionable one. First visit was to use a $20 Groupon voucher purchased for $12. Place was clean, with decent décor from the old country, everything seemingly dressed in red, with the customary life size statue of a lady in Thai dress welcoming us at the door. Don't know about all these Yelp reviews of bad or nonexistent service. Word must have gotten out, as we got greetings at the door, our choice of seats to a clean table with cloth napkins and silverware, with prompt service. Or maybe they are just respecting their elders, as wife and I are two old geezers, and not some young whippersnappers. Ordered the $12 Pad Thai with chicken and the $12 yellow curry with chicken, two dishes any Thai restaurant worth it's name cannot mess up. Dishes were excellent in appearance, with ingredients separated on the top. Pad Thai came with standard rice noodles, not over cooked, peanut crumbs, onions, bean sprouts, and scrambled egg in distinct piles. One of the best pad thai dishes I have ever tasted, with an excellent blend of ingredients of different textures and tastes, except that the amount of chicken was a smaller than normal portion. Yellow curry chicken dish did not come with rice -you have to pay $1.50 extra. This is like paying extra for tires on your new automobile - a mandatory option. This only makes sense if you are ordering take out, where you already have the rice cooked at home. The yellow curry dish came with a very meager amount of chicken, but lots of sliced carrots, green peppers, red peppers and onions. We ate everything, and took the yellow curry gravy back home to combine it with chicken and vegetables. Came back to use the $40 Groupon dinner coupon for two, purchased for $25. Again, excellent service, greetings at the door, and waiters waiting to serve us. Ordered the $14 pineapple Panang curry with chicken the $13 Pad see Ewe with prawns ($2 extra) , and the $12 vegetarian angel rolls. The 4 vegetarian angel rolls came filled with rice, cabbage, grated carrots, and a spicy peanut dipping sauce. Well if vegetarians have to eat this, they are in a very sorry state. Had absolutely no taste to me, even with the dipping sauce. Need some meat inside! The pineapple Panang curry with chicken had an excellent presentation, served in a hollowed out pineapple half. Labor intensive. Brown yellow curry with chunks of cut pineapple cubes, green peppers, red peppers, carrots, onions, and some stray pieces of chicken. Again, they were short changing us on the amount of chicken, and the rice was $1.50 extra. But the dish was otherwise very good, with a good blend of food. Spicy also, even though we asked for medium spice. The Pad see ewe came with the usual fat noodles, broccoli, chicken, scrambled egg, bean sprouts, grated carrots, and for $2 extra, 4 good sized prawns. As usual you got to peel off the tail shell, which they leave on to make it appear larger than it really is. Not a whole lot of taste, and the wife didn't like it, a rarity as she likes prawns. That's good, as I got to eat the entire dish as leftovers! In the past we only came here when the waiting for nearby Dish Dash and Gumbas was too long. Another better Thai restaurant, Thai Basil, right across the street on the corner of Murphy and Evelyn. Would probably go to King Wah around the block for my Chinese fix. As for the wife, she didn't order any more Groupons for Siam Taste, as even with a Groupon coupon, the prices are high, and Siam Taste only gives you a taste of the meat. e read more

STAY AWAY. I'm Asian, I've had my fair share of oily comfort food, but this place took it to a horrible level, I actually felt sick after eating it. The lamb chops were overcooked and oily, the pad kee mao was extremely salty and oily to the point of being inedible. Even the cod baked in banana leaf was salty and I never thought fish could be over-seasoned but it was. I love Thai food, and this was not it. I thought I'd enjoy being able to add duck for a $4 upcharge to anything rather than the typical red curry, but they were small oily pieces in the pad kee mao. The Thai tea was watered down and rather than the taste of condensed milk, it tasted like soymilk? Not a fan at all. read more

Siam Taste is in my top 10 of all the restaurants in bay area. Mostly because of the food and ambiance. This restaurant is absolutely authentic. The food tastes exactly like the food on Phuket. Who did complain about Tom Ka being sour? Do you know that lemongrass is one of the main ingredients? The interior is super authentic, including portraits of Rama 9. They also have authentic Thai accent. About the service. This is a family business, sometimes there are only 3 employees for entire restaurant, so prepare to be patient. The food is not overpriced. Somebody was complaining about noodles for $19. No. The big dish of pad thai with meat and veggies is $16.75. for today's prices is not overpriced at all. read more

Wow, this was really not good. Got an order of pad Thai with chicken in it. 3 pieces of chicken and two eeny pieces of onion. Dry and flavorless. I guess the positive was it wasn't oily, I've traveled in Thailand and actually live there for a short while, and I don't expect my food in the bay area to taste as good as it does in Thailand. This food was actually really disappointing and I'd be embarrassed if I was the owner. Many other options here in the Bay Area will not return. This sucks to be this awfully honest but I have to. read more

Definitely Thai levels of Spice (so be warned ). We love spicy food, but I wasn't feeling anything too spicy today. We ordered 2/6 spice level, and it makes the mouth tingle. Loved the Taro Fries and we liked the Penang Curry and Pad See Ewe noodles. A bit pricey, but otherwise solid and authentic Thai. read more

First time and last time very expensive for the quality all was over cooked except the noodles they were good but that was it

Terrible customer service. I usually order A basil main dish but decided to go with a hot and sour Soup as a main dish with my husband. It wasn't very good. 6 med shrimp, and a few mushrooms. It is still delicious so the stars aren't for the food. I still love their food. I called Siam Taste because I paid almost $28 And I thought my husband and I could make a meal of it considering it was supposed to feed 3-4 people. What? Less than a cup each I guess. I'm considering not coming back here. I'm not sure if there is a language barrier but the owner could have offered me literally anything and I would have felt better. He just sat on the phone and said nothing. He could have offered a partial refund or a complimentary appetizer something! read more

The food here is absolutely authentic! I ordered some pineapple fried rice and it came in a pineapple shelf that was cut in half. The rice was absolutely delicious and I had at least 1 day of leftovers which I pretty much ate by morning time. Their spring rolls are yummy and the peanut sauce they come with is absolutely delicious. They also have the bed sticky rice and mango that I've tried locally. I definitely recommend this place of anybody who wants delicious Thai place and I will be going back when I am in the downtown Sunnyvale area again. read more

Great food always. Love their pineapple fried rice! Tastes the best. Will continue to order. Love the service.

Here for the art and wine festival, like to try the local places tho. Had Tom kha soup and Angel spring rolls, Chang beer and Thai iced tea. Tom Kha was very light and great tasting, very nice but not as soothing as some other favorite places. Angel spring rolls were also super fresh and clean tasting, I would have only liked a bit more peanut sauce. Thai tea was Thai tea :) read more

My son and I came here on a quiet Sunday evening. The host/server/owner was a gem!!!!!Wonderful quirky spot in the center of downtown Sunnyvale.

It has become my favorite Thai restaurant in Bay Area. I was first introduced to Thai food when I was living in Australia. I was blown away by its complex flavor. But I haven't found similar taste in Bay Area until I ate here. You can judge a authentic Thai restaurant by its pad thai. Here the pad thai taste exactly like the flavor I ate in Thailand and Australia. The pad see ewe is my daughter's favorite noodle now, and that's quite a complement considering we eat all kinds of Chinese noodle at home. read more

We ate here after the market people and crowds left the area. Originally wanted to go to Dish Dash but their service staff kind of ignored us and since I didn't have the patience to wait for their attention, we decided to have Thai. I realized when we sat down and mobile ordered that they were very middle of the road review average. But hey...maybe they will surprise and not be what the previous history states. I ordered the Pad See Ew flat noodles and they were cooked okay...I could tell that the food was hot as the steam was visible from the cold weather around us. The iced teas I ordered was literally water...maybe 5% tea. And no lemon offered. Unfortunately they weren't able to exceed my somewhat modest expectations. I may order take out from them in the future but most likely will be awhile from now. read more

Wow, I don't want to sound dramatic or mean, but this was one of the worst thai food I've ever had. First of all, the prices were ridiculously high. A bowl of noodle was $17-$18. The pad thai was $12/13. You can get great tasting thai food somewhere else for half the price. Everything that we ordered was extremely disappointing. The eggplant salad was "recommended" on the menu, but it was one of the worst salads I've ever had. The flavors were non-existent, just extremely salty. The dish just didn't go well together at all. Both my boyfriend and brother's pad thai dishes were also extremely salty. The spring rolls were light, but pretty basic and plain. The dipping sauce was good though. The roti with tofu wasn't bad, but was way too oily. Every bite was dripping with oil. The noodle bowls were underwhelming and definitely not worth the price. Food was bad, and service wasn't great either. The waitress who helped us didn't smile once. Definitely only a one time experience! read more

We really loved this place and we go every time we visit downtown Sunnyvale since our daughter loves the skewers/satay. However I found out today that yesterday's meal made me sick. The food is good but basically do not eat the raw vegetables like the lettuce and the cucumbers and onions that served as side items with the main food. My wife and daughter did not eat it- they only had the cooked stuff, but I ate all the raw side stuff too. Turns out I have some kind of infection in my intestines and the fever and chills is lasting more than a day. I could not work today. So, long story short. The food is great here but you will get sick from the raw veggies. read more

Too many choices to nosh in this block. In the end we decided to go thai for dinner yesterday. The tables outside attracted us enough to check out their menu and I'm glad we did. Their Padthai was really good. I prefer mine slightly burnt sorta but this is not bad at all. Portions were good for two. We also had the Beef Curry and Brown rice. Very tasty. You can request it seasoned mild, medium or hot according to your braveness. The cute tables outside are perfect for people watching. Yellow table napkins made it a tad more rich! It was a very nice contrast with the blue plates. Warm weather contributed to the nice evening out. Staff was awesome and wait for our order was surprisingly short. Average price about $10 each entree. read more

We went here last night, hoping to enjoy a nice Thai meal outdoors and some live DJ music on no-traffic Murphy Avenue in Sunnyvale. The food and service turned out to be excellent, and I highly recommend you giving this place a try if you like Thai food. The live DJ never did appear. I ordered Rama Thai chicken with peanut sauce, and our lovely server was kind enough to allow a change in the vegetable. It was delicious and cooked just right. Again, I highly recommend you go try this place! read more

We ordered food from here on the weekend of thanks giving. We didn't had much options and this location was open. I didn't see their yelp reviews, just saw their website and thought to give a try. Panang curry - was too runny, it didn't feel like curry. Taste was ok. Tofu way too soft. Tom Yum Soup - mostly dominated by mushrooms only. Pineapple Fried Rice - this was my biggest disappointment. They charged $25 for this. All they do is put fried rice in half sliced pineapple shell! Taste is very ordinary, and didn't even had any nuts/cashews. Total waste of my money! So in general, ordinary taste, in fact missed the most staple dishes. Way too expensive. In fact I mentioned to the owner that it is way too much to charge $25 for fried rice. He said in couple of months, he will raise more price. Never going back to this place. read more

On my first day of work, my boss and I wanted some time to get up to speed and decided to grab lunch in downtown Sunnyvale. There aren't many choices but Thai food stuck out as a good option. Siam Taste became lunch that day. I ordered the salmon curry lunch special, with was served with a watery soup, rice, an egg roll, fried wonton, and salad. The appetizers were decently tasty though standard fare, but the salad was dry and undressed, and pretty gross. The salmon curry was nice and spicy, but the fish was perhaps a little overcooked. Service was kind of careless and the server brought our soup stacked on top of each other. Besides the sanitation issues, this was just sloppy. Prices were more than one might expect to pay for lunch and generally $10+. But given the limited options, I guess there's not much choice. They've got some tables outside where you can come if you happen to have brought your dog to work with you which is nice. The street is quiet so it's a fine area to have lunch in the area. Food: 5/10 Service: 5/10 Price: $$ Atmosphere: 6/10 read more

I love the vegetarian dishes here! They have a lot of wonderful options. I would love to make this my regular Thai restaurant from now on. I really enjoyed the veggie pineapple fried rice. I was however disappointed by the service, they were rushing us throughout the meal and the restaurant was empty. I assume it was just an "off night". read more

Delicious food, quiet at times though love a little taste of Thai. We ordered the wrapped lemongrass Cod fish, chicken Satay, Red curry, Pineapple fried rice, coconut rice, green veggie curry, and papaya salad. All dishes were prepared amazingly well. When we got there at about 7:30pm we thought we and two other couples would be there to have a quiet dinner. At about 8:15pm, a crowd of people came in and it got louder but it's okay. I think locales eat quite late in the spring time. We ordered the mango and sticky coconut sweet rice which was delicious! Thank you for the wonderful meal. We will continue to eat here at our favorite Thai restaurant since there are many vegetarian options and our new favorite Cod wrapped in banana leaf with lemongrass flavors- yumm! read more

I had bad experience with Thai food in the past in South CA.So I was a kind of cautious .To my surprise food was good.We ordered Pineapple fried rice with shrimps, it was beautifully served in the pineapple.Mango and green apple salad was very refreshing and delicious.

I had dinner with my friends so everyone enjoyed the food.I'm not a fan of curry but maybe next time I will try it.We were seated outside as we came for Summer Concert and I can't say anything about interior of the restaurant.The service was OK,wait time -not bad.But the waitress should be more welcoming. read more

I found the whole incident funny because it made me think of the Seinfeld episode with the rude Soup Nazi. No I won't be going back. The servers need some fairly basic training. read more

This should really be a 3.5 star. Waifu didn't like the pad thai, as the tofu had a bitter taste to it, but otherwise it was alright, so 3 stars.
