I have been going to Thai Cafe for years. It is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the AV. Food 9/10 Atmosphere 7/10 love the upgrades. Cost $$$ Service Dine in 8/10 service call in 4/10 last order I called in they said 20 min and I came at the 20 min mark and waited another almost 30 min for my food. Overall 7/10. I still love the food. Service is good. I hate to say it BUT... the amount of food you get has gotten much smaller but the cost has gone way up. read more

I remember telling my friend that it's seems hard to mess up Thai food from what I've been experiencing lately and then I ate here:/ The place is cute. Dumplings were old possibly, two different colors and had a weird taste in the soup. Beef salad looked very sad. And tasted the same. I don't know if they were shortstaffed in the back, but the waitress seems like she was doing tables and possibly cooking as well lol. read more

Went for the wife's birthday. Paid $50 for a reservation for 9 people, which was applied to the bill. Food was outstanding! And the service was even better than the food!!' Also have had their food to go since then and they package it very well! Small business that can't say enough good things about. You just have to try it for yourself. read more

The rice was raw and filled with oil. So nasty . Tried to get a refund but cashier somehow tried to convince me that she will have another cook make it for me with no oil. read more

This place is good, especially for the lunch special very very reasonable and they even have it on Saturdays. Some of the sauces are sweet so maybe ask before you order if you don't like sweet sauces. Service has been fast when we have come and it's a very old old cool building and the interior is very nice. They have lots of great art. read more

My family has been coming here for years and I commend how consistent this incredible restaurant has been. The staff throughout the years have been nothing but a joy; respectful and kind. The food is amazing; cooked fresh and with so much flavor. We've seen this small family business grow immensely and we applaud and appreciate the incredible service they give us every birthday and holiday we are there. Thank you Thai Cafe for all that you do and for always making your place home for our big family that never makes reservations haha read more

The best Thai spot in the AV. Incredible service that hasn't changed in 20 years. Incredible, authentic Thai quinine. Beautiful location off Milling and Sierra Hwy. read more

Service is good. The waitress did her job. I ordered the Trip To Thailand. Little bit of pad Thai, bbq chicken, and curry with a side of white rice. All cooked well. The pad Thai was of perfect texture and was light. The flavor of the curry is what kept me eating. There are small slices of chicken in the curry as well. Over all a good Thai place to eat. I will be coming back read more

Thai Cafe - 40. Mint Leaves Lunch - Thai Near Me - Lancaster, California

Some of the BEST Thai food in the AV. Egg rolls and Crab Rangoon are outstanding. I had the Jungle Curry and could have ate a bathtub full it was so good. My daughter got the Seafood Broiler and enjoyed every bite, she said the flavor was outstanding. My 16 mo grandson was the star of the restaurant. He fell in love with our waitress and I think it was mutual. His favorite had to be the Tapioca because he said, and signed, more after every bite. We'll definitely be back. read more

A good homegrown Thai food restaurant. The lunch specials are affordable and staff is more than welcoming. One of My mothers top food spots also due to the beautiful art and efficinet seating arrangements. Thank you Thai Cafe read more

After a game of softball, we swung by Thai Cafe for dinner to celebrate our victory. I've been to this spot a handful of times, and they normally don't disappoint. This time, I had the Trip to Thailand, which comes with pad Thai noodles, Thai chicken BBQ, chicken red curry, and a side of white rice--delicious! The service was great, and the ambiance is usually quite calm, not noisy, which I appreciate. However, they charge $6 to swap the white rice for fried rice, which I think is a little high. Instead, I ordered a separate side of fried rice for $12 and got a larger portion. Unfortunately, the fried rice lacked flavor and missed the mark for me. On the bright side, they offered us tapioca pudding at the end of the meal, and it was the perfect treat for my sweet tooth. Overall, a solid experience. read more

Some of the best service in Lancaster. Food is good. Many dishes come with a complementary soup that is delicious. Spicy levels are 1-5 and Thai spicy is after that. I recommend. read more

I went here for the first time and have been hooked ever since! This spot is definitely my go to! I love the noodles with veggies and their house salad with peanut sauce. So good! I love the inside of their restaurant, I really like how there isn't harsh lighting. It's perfect! The service 70% good in person and 90% through the phone. I believe it's because how busy they get with phone orders. All in all The food is what makes it! read more

Always great and worth the wait. I've been coming here for years and so happy they are here.

This was the first place I tried Thai food and it was spectacular. You taste all the flavors and yet it's soft and subtle (unless you get the spicy stuff). The vibes are super cool and welcoming, plus each booth feels like it's own area because of how it's set up. The rice soup they give at the beginning was great, never heard of it before but I finished the whole thing in one go. The service was great, waitress always checked up on us and made conversation. For sure a spot I'll go to again. read more

This was highly recommended to me by many friends and wow it did not disappoint! So delicious! read more

Great Thai food, fast service and a cozy little hideaway in Lancaster. My girlfriend and I both got egg rolls to share which never disappoint. We both also got the Panang Curry with mock chicken that gave off great flavors and enough spice to slow you down from completely downing the whole bowl in one sip. Will be returning to try their other offerings soon. read more

Ordered carryout. Too sweet. The tom yum hot and sour shrimp soup had so much sugar in it we fished out the shrimp and threw the rest away. Worst we've had in 30+ years of eating Thai food. read more

The complimentary sizzling rice soup was a nice surprise with perfect seasoning level, a hint of heat in the background and a nice flavor to stimulate one's palate -- when Mr. Picky commented that he was enjoying it, I nearly fell off my seat because he can be very picky. Next we headed to the Shrimp Spicy Noodle, low spice level, with extra garlic and onions (both white and green) ... really delicious!!! The noodles were so good that next time we decided we wouldn't even bother with the shrimp. A definite winner that we'll order in future. I love to see him really enjoying himself and being surprised by the food. I was tempted to order another dish of that instead of something else. I didn't see it on the menu, but asked if they had Crab Rangoon and was pleasantly surprised with the enthusiastic head nod. I ordered it just because for some reason Mr. Picky likes it and tonight he seemed to be in love with the, "Great sauce." I got a kick out of seeing him scarf it down and loved watching him clearly enjoying himself at dinner, confirmed by his saying he wanted to come back soon. For my part, I would have preferred to order stuffed chicken wings but the restaurant was out of them. We finished with their complementary tapioca. Our nice waiter Nevin had to leave, but we were in great hands with Cecile. Overall, a great experience. I don't know who was cooking tonight, but the food had heart and soul to it. read more

Food is delicious, service is good, was there on a Saturday for dinner and they were pretty busy. Service was a little slow but we enjoyed hot crispy rice soup while we waited for entrees. Servers were pleasant and attentive even though they were busy. Ambiance is nice, very comfortable. Everything I've had here has always been real good, best crab Rangoon, tasted like crab, cooked fresh to order. It's nice to be able to order the "heat" we like. Really enjoyed this dinner out! read more

Best Thai place in Lancaster, hands down!! Pad Thai slaps for sure, and the volcano is bomb. This IS the spot!

Just had lunch here with my family. We ordered pad Thai, baby corn chicken, Kung pao chicken, and the pièce de résistance the Travel to Thailand which is a sampler of pad Thai, curry, Thai chicken, and rice. The meals came with delicious crispy rice soup and tapioca desert (which we purchased extra to take home). The service was great. Cant wait to go back. read more

We had take out here for the first time in quite a long time. The food is still good, just not as we remember. Perhaps a sit-down visit is in order. I had the Tom Kha, which was flavorful, but lacking a bit of galangal. My husband was very satisfied with the Black Pepper Garlic Chicken. Not complaining, just hoping it is as good as we remember next time we can eat in. Service is always on point and the restaurant is a comfortable spot for lunch. read more

Had one of those days where I was craving some good Thai Food, so I decided to try someplace new, worst mistake of the week $47 down the drain, I could not even eat the mess the served me. Never Again! Sad thing is they display all these AV Awards...........I'll say no more read more

My family of three was VERY dissatisfied with the service here. We come in to eat and it was super packed. That itself was not the issue. What was the issue was we saw how packed it was and we placed an order to go. We were told it was going to be 30 minutes. It was over an hour and the family that came in after us WAS ALREADY SEATED AND HAD FOOD AT THEIR TABLE, and our order still was not ready. We went in and were not even given a wait time. Just told that it was super busy. That is fine-- but the wait time for to-go food was appalling and nothing was offered either for the crazy long wait. This was very disappointing. read more

the food was amazing and great customer service will be back everything about this place is fantastic and it's a nice vibe read more

This place is AWFUL, I'm sorry. The wait time is TERRIBLE. We ordered our drinks and appetizers, and after they had us waiting for 15-20 minutes just to order our meals. I thought maybe the kitchen was understaffed but the lady who was waiting us was just standing in the back doing nothing, just walking back and forth. The waiter was very rude and unprofessional. When we told her after 20 minutes of waiting that we were ready to order our food she took a big sigh. The food was also very mediocre and NOT worth it. The Thai tea while looked good, was super sweet, don't get me wrong i love me a good sweet Thai tea but this was straight creamer. read more
