Was craving Thai food and was in the area, when I found this place on Yelp. I ordered the shrimp and tofu pad see ew, which was to-die-for. The sauce was perfect, everything was done quickly and served so hot...it was awesome. The ingredients are quality, which you can instantly taste. The Thai Tea was not overly sweet and had the perfect balance of creaminess. We will definitely be back when in the area! read more

Went in hoping for a solid Thai meal and left wondering how this place has the word "Thai" in the name. Everything tasted flat and uninspired. The dishes were bland across the board, like someone was afraid to use salt, spice, or any kind of seasoning at all. On top of that, multiple items were overcooked to the point where the texture was just off. Portions didn't save it, service didn't save it, nothing really did. The only thing even remotely decent was the sticky rice--and honestly, that's doing a lot of heavy lifting for a very weak meal. Calling that sticky rice the highlight is probably the best example of how low the bar was here. read more

Found myself here meeting up with my cousin for dinner. This place can easily get missed because there's not much signage from the street and it's in a shopping center that has a lot of other restaurant businesses. The reviews are legit, this spot serves up some tasty, authentic Thai dishes. Peep my foodie pic, the curry is thick not watered down like other establishments. The rice is cooked to perfection, coming from a Filipina that was raised on eating rice! *wink. There wasn't an item that we ordered that wasn't delicious. Come check this place out. read more

For this visit, we had satay chicken for appetizers which was really good. The chicken was tender and the peanut sauce complimented it well. For our main dish, we opted for their lunch menu. I had the combo Thai orange chicken and egg fried rice. I liked the egg fried rice but I can't say the same for the orange chicken. Apparently, it's just sliced chicken (which by the way was tiny) and just sweet sauce. My husband had the red curry medium spice with white rice. He enjoyed it. For drinks, we had the Thai iced tea. The service was good and fast. read more

We ordered pineapple fried rice with beef and pad thai with chicken. Both dishes tasted just okay -- the beef and chicken were tough and seemed overcooked. The portions were generous, and the restaurant itself was spacious, but overall the food and experience felt pretty average. On a positive note, the staff service was friendly and fast. The plaza has plenty of parking, though the spaces are quite compact. read more

Our party of three was quickly seated, and the server was very attentive. We ordered, and I swear before we finished our next sentence we had our food. The fried tofu appetizer was delicious, as was our pad Thai. The only miss was the pineapple fried rice: it was overly salty and oily. Other than that our meal was excellent, and I would come back to try other dishes. read more

This place is amazing. And if you ever order online you are missing out on a treat. You will get far more portions and experience being there. Mo is an amazing server and he made the service so amazing. You like Thai, you will love Thai Spoon. read more

Clean, super sweet waitress. Ordered the SOM TAM extra spicy. I feel like there were zero peppers. Asked for it to be made. I could barely taste the spice but there was no flavor. Also, ordered the CHICKEN PAD THAI, which had no flavor either. Very disappointed. First & last visit. Do not recommend. read more

Oil is the main ingredient - even the cucumber salad was super oily. For $3.50 I would expect more cucumber than weird flavorless oil water. The pad Thai was a paste of tasteless noodles in a block. Bland and oily overall. read more

I'm so sad because I'm a regular customer here. Probably come 2-4 times a month, so I recommended this place to my coworker. She ordered shrimp pad see-ew and I ordered pork thai fried rice. I came to pick up this order on my break. I am only given 30 minutes. It's a 10-12 min from my job so I go pick up my food and then come back and basically break is over. I understand it might have been my fault because I didn't check the order but they never get it wrong.. When I got to work we opened our orders and hers had pork and mine had shrimp. (She does not eat pork btw) So I called them to see what they could do to help us and they said to "leave it in the fridge and then bring it back for us to fix it." What happened to store credit? I'm in no way trying to scam. If anything I even left a small tip. Our break is over and now we don't have a meal to eat because "leave it in the fridge?" That's my only complain. Other than that, their food is always very delicious. I can eat whatever but I feel bad for my coworker who paid for her food and can't even eat it. read more

Thee best panang curry in Sac! My new brow bar is next to Thai Spoon which was already on my Yelp "to try" list. Boy did I score big! Panang curry (with chicken) is my absolute favorite Thai curry and I have to admit, we are fortunate in Sacramento to have some really good Panang curry options. But Thai Spoon is best in class. The first time I tried it, it was an instant love affair. Tiffany, the lovely, sweet hostess must never take a day off, as she's always working when I stop in (with a smile, I might add). Chef Mu, God bless you and thank you for always customizing my curry. I don't like carrots and order Panang with bell peppers, broccoli, green beans and eggplant. Taste, texture and temperature are my three gold seals...Thai Spoon nails all three each time. My last trip hubby was in town and he is not a curry person. I asked him just to taste it and Mr. rarely raves about anything couldn't stop saying how good the panang curry was. Hubby ordered Thai chow mein with beef, we shared the calamari appetizer, and I ordered the spicy basil fried rice (another must order every time favorite). I'm going to try the panang with tofu on my next visit. Thank you Tiffany and Chef Mu! read more

I came in here for the first time craving my peoples food, and i thought it would be a good idea to try this spot since it had 4 stars. The service was quick and friendly ... but the food... PSA THIS REVIEW is for the real thai and lao food junkies!!!! My palette is so picky because i like flavorful food, since i grew up eating real authentic thai and lao dishes. I ordered a spring roll and chicken drunken noodle with no bell pepper no bean sprout and no bamboo (still had plenty of veggies). I requested my food be spicy, LIKE SPICY! Man did they deliver, BUT.. their dish is what we call "ped lah lah" or just spicy with no flavor. I couldn't eat anymore because i couldn't taste anything but spice . It had no flavor to the food. Now i cant base my assumptions off of one visit, but us southeast asians like flavor and i know when there isn't flavor if the fat noodle is still white all around or stuck together. I asked for more stir fry sauce and took my food to go stating that i couldn't taste much flavor. they kindly gave me a container of their stir fry sauce. When i came home and stir fried with their sauce (and a dash of sugar to keep it from being salty) it was DELICIOUS. That changed my 3 stars rating to a 4 (with added steps). If you are picky about your Asian food id be cautious as natomas prices might leave you disappointed because the dishes cater to a more Americanized palette. Its a beautiful place, and the food was not horrible at all. Once again just picky. Id come again to try the boat noodle' read more

I'm giving 5 stars for the pumpkin curry, the best we've ever had! This place is small but good. The portions are quite large and we were very happy. We also had the spicy eggplant and drunken noondles which were good. They offer brown rice which made the whole meal very enjoyable Note: Thai ice tea is overly sweet here, but the Thai ice coffee was good. read more

An unassuming Thai restaurant that serves delicious food. I cannot stress how good their drunken noodles and fried tofu are. Would also highly recommend their coconut ice cream that is so rich in flavor. Their fried bananas though are on the more expensive side and we didn't like the way they were fried. Their Tom Kha soup is well worth it and a small one is enough to satisfy 3 people. Their Pad Thai is a little on the sweeter side and watch out for spice. While all "spicy" items are marked with a double asterisk, there are varying levels, so make sure to ask before ordering, especially their Som Tum salad. The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, providing lots of information. The restaurant layout is perfect for larger groups (6+). Food is prepared rapidly and since it's in a mall, there's plenty of parking. read more

Came here for a quick stop and enjoyed the experience! They weren't crowded at all on a Thursday afternoon when we got in. Good: - I got a khao soi dish and also a tom kha soup - I liked the tom kha more since the Khao soi had a weird after taste - Papaya salad was good and sweet and savory - The portion sizes were large - Prices were very reasonable for lunch and the amount of food we got Bad: - The place was a little cramped and the seats weren't super fancy - The place took a while to get food out - Very casual place Overall nice for a road trip but wouldn't come back. read more

Hubby ordered on their website. It took about 15 minutes to get there. He left immediately after he ordered cause he wanted to make sure we receive the food right when it's freshly cooked. Awesome that the food was made to order! 3/5 stars. $15.95+ Drunken Noodles (chose chicken): wide rice noodle stir fried with choice of meat, egg, onion, basil, bamboo, bell pepper, bean sprout in fresh chili garlic sauce. - it did say spicy on their website but when you order it, it let's you pick the spicy level. We chose medium. OHHHHHHHH BOYYYYYYYY THEY DO NOT PLAY WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR SPICY LEVEL. I love spicy foods but this was not medium, it seemed like extra spicy cause hubby and I were sweating balls!!!!!!!! Trussst fam.. we had the AC on in the house lol. Good thing bout it is, the authentic flavors are there. Not sure if they didn't see that we chose medium spicy but next time, I'll be sure to call it in and ask for mild. I wanted to eat more but because it was spicy enough that my tongue and stomach started to burn that I only had like a few bites. 3/5 stars. $9.95+ Tom Yum Soup (chose chicken) : choice of chicken or shrimp with vegetables, lemongrass in hot and sour soup. - same opinion as the drunken noodles!!! 3/5 stars. $15.95+ Pad Thai (chose chicken): rice stick noodle stir fried with choice of meat, egg, tofu, bean sprout, green onion, in Pad Thai sauce, topped with ground peanut. - Thank God this was not spicy! Lol. LOVE THE AUTHENTIC FLAVOR. Would have it less sweet and lemon-y. Would ask for more green onions, bean sprouts and grounded peanuts. Over all, I think they rushed our order. THEY SHOULD HAVE TASTED IT TO MAKE SURE THE FLAVORS AND SPICY LEVELS WERE RIGHT. Idk?! It was off. Will try again cause I really don't wana drive all the way to Citrus Heights just to get the perfect authentic thai food. Happy eat's ya'll! read more

The fried rice was delicious, husband asked if they can add a bit more garlic and they charged us an extra $2 for the sprinkled garlic you see on top of the fried rice. The salad was good but not enough salad and too much red onions. The pad cha with chicken had an unusual fragrant that I wasn't able to get over. Not sure what it was. read more

I've never had Thai food and this place was recommended to me so today I paid them a visit for lunch. The ambiance was decent, clean and quaint but the customer service was superb and welcoming. For appetizers, I tried the Thai dumplings and they were delicious. I kept it simple for my meal, and ordered Thai shrimp fried rice. (I was too hungry and scared to try anything too foreign to taste buds.) The portions were large and I needed a to go bag. To drink I tried the Thai tea but I wasn't a fan of it. My first experience at a Thai restaurant wasn't bad, I'd definitely return again. read more

This review is overdue. I visited Thai Spoon on Wednesday, 8/30/23, during lunchtime. I decided to order both the Shrimp Fresh Roll with Peanut Sauce and the Chicken Drunken Noodle. Both food items were truly tasty and extremely generous in portions. I had some leftovers to take home. The service was attentive and wonderful. The ambiance of the restaurant was beautiful as well. Overall, Thai Spoon is amazing and I cannot wait to come back to try more food options. read more

Absolutely, hands down the worst Thai food restaurant in Sacramento. I really do not understand how this place has such high ratings. The pad Thai was waaaaaay too sweet in a corn syrup kind of sweet and it was DRENCHED in oil, swimming really. The Thai tea, I had to dump 1/4 of it out and replace it with water in order to make it drinkable. The mango sticky rice was insanely sweet but like sickly sweet and the mango was so green and so hard it was almost inedible and I'm sure it was cut with a knife that had recently cut an onion. I would not go back, I will not be recommending it and if I were a different kind of person I would be asking for my money back. read more

Visited this place as it was pretty close to where I was working and with good reviews I decided to try it. First and foremost I went during lunch and with only one other table in the restaurant being occupied, the service was not as good as I would expect. My guest and I sat down, handed menus and then I had to go look for the server/waitress after like 12 to 15 minutes because she never came back. When I went to go ask if I could order, she rolled her eyes while she was sipping on her drink and then finally came to get our order. Disappointed in this kind of service. Now for the food. The food has good flavor and the Tom Kha soup was pretty good and would definitely order again. The ambiance is classic Thai food place. I would visit this place again and hope the service improves as the food is good. read more

Expensive for the amount of food you get. Fresh veggies rolls, good... Ordered orange Chicken for my son. It came as very few fried chicken, 1/4" thick sliced, sauce in the side on bed of lettuce and very few other vegetables. Orange Sauce on the side. Ordered a small Tom Khat soup, a bit different from others I had in other places, it came large, no extra charge. It came with no rice, so it was extra $2.95. It came with no lemon grass shoots... Total bill for my son and I with no beverages $49.81 read more

My daughters and I use to come here all the time, picked up food tonight for dinner. What happened to this place. The food was flavorless practically had no taste, the fish looked and tasted like it had been siting around for hours making it soggy and tough to chew. The cost of the food was ridiculous, especially given the amount we received and the quality. Will not be returning. read more

They had friendly staff and food turn around was pretty quick. I ordered boat noodle wasn't too impressed only because it was a bit too sweet for me. But their steak salad was always on point. read more

Customer service is horrible. I purchased a lunch special and they mixed the rice and dish together. By the time I got it home, my rice was completely saturated and not the way I like it. After driving all the way back to the restaurant to who you order remade, they made it wrong and then chastise me about making sure I ask over the phone which I did. Not to mention the dish that I ordered is very common and hard to mess up and there's taste terrible in comparison to some of the other Thai places nearby. Things are too expensive to have terrible customer service these days. definitely will not be returning. read more

Love this place. I have only done orders that I pick up but the ladies are super nice, they knew exactly what I wanted when I asked for a big thing of Thai chili fish sauce and yes they know I don't mind paying for it, it's for those who like very very hot and spicy foods. I can't forget the Thai Tea also. I have never had my orders incorrect and this is the first Thai restaurant that doesn't have mushy drunken noodles. read more

Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday around 1pm since it was on our way to the Vacaville outlets. We were so blown away by how flavorful everything was! We got the small Tom Kha soup (which is a pretty big bowl for a small) with shrimp and the yellow curry with chicken + jasmine rice (rice is $2.25 extra but well worth it). The soup had plenty of shrimp in it and was piping hot. The yellow curry was the crowd favorite with a big depth of flavor. Will be back! read more
