Everything here is amazing! The food, the service and the price is affordable and so good!

Must try the pad se ewe and for dessert you have to get the mango sticky rice. Yummo!

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I have ever tasted and I'm glad it's walking distance from my home. The Panang curry is delicious and so is the lemon chicken. Everything is fresh and perfectly seasoned/ cooked. Service is fast and they are accommodating to any food modifications. Service is always friendly. From the cute vintage interior you would never know you were in a strip mall. I love coming back here even though I moved 50 miles away. read more

Star BBQ exceeded my expectations with their delicious Thai cuisine. Highly recommended!

Service - excellent. For that I'd give it 5 stars. But Wow! This place is VERY expensive. For the amount of food you get for the price, definitely not worth it. Maybe a lunch special. I ordered To-Go. The taste of the food is definitely authentic. However, the chicken slices are cut too thin. Beef slices cut too thick. Sorry guys, I have to look for another Thai place. read more

Great and authentic Thai food. The remarkable Sarah took care of us. She has the purest sole and was so kind to our table of 7. She did an amazing job and has the sweetest personality. She makes the atmosphere very welcoming and we will be back soon for some more mango sticky rice. read more

First time ordering takeout from this place. Honestly I was expecting the food to suck, but it actually tastes really good! I ordered the chicken fried rice, mixed veggies a la carte & pad kee mow noodle with shrimp. The servings are huge! Perfect for two people. read more

My family really enjoys this place. The pad Thai is really incredible and the staff are really nice and considerate. Highly recommend.

Pretty good for Inland Empire Thai food. I enjoy their pad thai, pad see ew and Thai fried rice. Pretty standard dishes that are hard to mess up and thankfully they don't. Avoid the spicy catfish at all costs unless you are a fan of bones in every bite. They have a decent lunch special menu, but be warned, the only reason the prices are cheaper are because the portions are smaller. Kinda weird that they serve a scoop of rice even when you get a noodle dish. Egg rolls are actually okay for having no meat in them. read more

Typical Thai joint. Decor and menu are about what one would expect. Service is kind and the flavors are decent. The location is kind of rough which is unfortunate. I have had better Thai and certainly a better atmosphere but I am rating them in context. I think they are worth the money and you should get the food as take-out. There are fewer Thai places to choose from in this area than there used to be, this one is just a bit more solid than the competition in my opinion. read more

Heartbreak. But mostly for me. The family, satisfied. This matriarch can only say, "Humph. No standards." We don't come here that often, although it is close by. But I always used to love this place, but the most recent visits have been progressively disappointing. And today.... Fried tofu appetizer - good. Came with a super sweet sauce topped with chopped peanuts. Since I am trying to wean myself off sugar, no bueno. The tofu was still good by itself. Fried wonton - Envision large wonton squares with miniscule dots of mystery meat filling. Shame shame. Pure crispy fried carbs. And then, it came with that super sweet sauce again. Thai beef salad - my dish. Had to send it back. The dressing was pure fish sauce with a tiny bit of other flavors, impossible to eat. The second time, nearly as bad. Thank god I know what the sauce consists of. Lemon juice and salt improved it, somewhat. The beef, overcooked. Glass noodle with tofu - Mr. B's choice. The let down for me was the canned mushrooms and canned baby corn. The noodles, tofu, egg, and veggies were good. Pad see ew with chicken - Thick noodles, so the daughter ordered extra sauce up front. Never happened. And the chicken, again, overcooked. Taste - missing something. Maybe sauce? Pineapple curry with chicken - Pronounced by son-in-law as excellent. I'll never know, he vacuumed it down. Next time, there won't be a next time. I'll probably push for our current favorite places, Seven Seas or Angel Thai. read more

Thai Star BBQ - Fried tofu with sweet sauce and peanuts - Thai Near Me - Corona, California

I'm not surprised that Thai Star hasn't been reviewed yet because they are one of those unexpected gems that no one knows about. Jon and I were fortunate enough to live nearby when we discovered it. They are a quaint family-owned and operated business behind Arco and across Food4Less on McKinley, which is a dicey part of town. But aren't most great hole-in-the-walls found in the ghetto? =) OK, now let me get to the point. They make the best Thai food. EVER. PERIOD. I've been to Banana Bay in Rowland, Best Thai Cuisine in Riverside, and many others scattered across the IE and LA, but Thai Star is by far the best!!! They are the real deal. Since moving to HB, I'm still struggling to find a place in the South Bay that compares. Tara Thai is CLOSE. Unlike a lot of Thai places, you can't go wrong with their menu. I've tried the Magic Salmon, Thai BBQ spare ribs, Chicken ruby (deep fried Cornish hen stuffed with that ground pork and glass noodle filling found in dumplings), curries, fried rice, honey lemon chicken, and noodle dishes. Everything is tasty and VERY reasonably priced, but I always find myself gravitating toward the Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mow with beef. And I ALWAYS get them EXTRA SPICY. Also unlike a lot of those other Thai places, they will make your food HOT if you want it. And I mean GIVE-YOU-MADASS-SHITS-THE-NEXT-MORNING-HOT!!! Unfortunately, your ass will feel the same heat your mouth felt when you took a bite of their food, but it is worth it if you have an affinity for spicy food like I do. If you're a MILD type of person, they can make it to your liking as well. They also have kick-ass Thai iced tea to wash it all down with! I can't say enough great things about this place. I know the location isn't prime, but if you're in the area, it's a great place to eat. The employees are incredibly sweet and willing to go out of their way to accommodate their customers. I've been there so much they know what I want before I even order! The only con about this place is they close at 8:30 PM, even though their menu says 9:30 because they don't get a lot of business. Although, I've been by recently and business appears to have picked up. Good for them! Jon and I tried to be faithful customers and made it a point to eat there at least once a week when we stumbled across this gem. It was really sad when we told them we were moving! I almost cried!!! Despite the vast number of Thai options in South Bay/LA, I have a sneaky feeling that Thai Star will always be my favorite AND YOURS. ;) Be sure to say hi to Ron and the gang for me, and to their bug-eyed goldfishes!

Thai Star BBQ - Thai Beef Noodle Soup. Yummy - Thai Near Me - Corona, California

The service was great. The inside is very simple but don't judge a book by it's cover. The food was very flavorful and made to order spicy. I got the lunch special so for under $15 which is less than fast food joints and the food was very freshly made. Definitely going to go back!! read more

Love the service and delicious food! Totally recommend this place. I've been coming at least 2 times a week. read more

Thai food lunch specials for under $10 will get you an entree along with a side of soup, one egg roll, salad, and steamed/fried rice. The amount of food you get is decent for the price you are paying. It's more than enough for one person if you're like me and don't eat much during lunchtime. We ordered the BBQ Chicken and Tofu Pad Thai without bean sprouts. Both came with fried rice on the side. The bowl of soup that came out after ordering was cold at the surface, but burning hot at the middle down so I'm guessing they microwaved it before bringing it out. The soup was like an egg flower soup with bits of meat inside. The first time they brought my Tofu Pad Thai there were bean sprouts, so the waitress brought it back into the kitchen and they remade another one for me. The second one came out steaming hot and smelled really good. The Tofu was soft and the noodles were nice and saucy. However, there were some noodles that were a little hard and an eyelash on the plate, but things like this can sometimes happen when you're eating out. The BBQ Chicken was pretty good. It looked dry on the outside, but was actually moist and flavorful with the sweet and sour sauce they give with the egg roll. I also ordered a Thai iced tea and asked for them to make it less sweet. The amount you get for $2.50 isn't bad compared to what you pay at tea shops, but is not as good. The Thai tea was good at first and not too sweet, but tasted like sugar water near the end. So I'd suggest finishing it before the meal ends or tell them to only add milk and no syrup maybe? Service was pretty good as well. They usually only have one waitress during lunch hours, but she checked up a few times to make sure everything was okay. The inside is pretty dated though and the seats in the booths have duct tape on some of them. Aside from the wear and tear, this place is pretty reasonably priced with good service overall. read more

I was extremely disappointed, I came in a Few minutes after this place opened, & waited 25min for my food. I asked for medium spicy larb salad & it was so spicy. I couldn't eat it. I asked to have it to go & eat the plate I ordered. Server came back to have all my food in a bag to go. I waited over 35 min for everything just to Not eat. Maybe it was a miscommunication but the food here is expensive & the serving amount is small. read more

Excellent service and excellent food, and I will see them tomorrow, i've been there quite a few times already and every time the food is consistently hot and delicious from mild to spicy. Everything is great. read more

Been coming here for more than a decade. Great Thai food for takeout or dine in, the do a lot of takeout. Quality and taste are consistently good. The staff is very nice and attentive. Love this place! read more

Been ordering takeout a few times now and hands down I would say there chicken yellow curry and papaya salad is delicious! There papaya salad has only one size even if your call during lunch but I wish they did have it on there lunch menu. I have not order anything except those two items but sure is worth the flavor! Reason they are only getting a 3 is because I would def. agree with another reviewer that he portion size is very small regardless if it's on the lunch menu for the price you pay. I would def come back to see how the portion size in in person for sure down but till then take out is my only option. Food is great but potion size and price is not worth it read more

WARNING RIP OFF!!! Came in because I had a craving for Tom Kha Kai. And wanted to try this place out. Spent $53.61 and tipped $5 because it was food to go. I ordered Tom Kha Kai for 2 with Chicken & Shrimp; medium spicy. 2 Chicken Noodle soup, Mongolian Beef and Chicken Teriyaki. Waited for what seem like 15 to 20minutes. Got my food piping hot and head home to my family for a late dinner. Got home opened the Mongolian Beef and Teriyaki Chicken. Was utterly disappointed at the portions. First thing out of my mouth was I paid $8 dollars each for this?!?!? Portions literally less than half the size of what you get at fast food restaurants. The portions would barely fill a Panda Express small size. I mean this is how much you would get on a 2 or 3 item combo at a mom and pop fast food Chinese restaurant. I felt ripped off !!! Now as for the Tom Kha Kai; it was actually pretty good but again portions was small. The chicken Noodle soup.... luckily I ordered 2. This at least helped filled the meal for my family of 6. Chicken Noodle soup was good and my babygirl loved the noodles... To close this off ... Service was good but Portions are stupid small for what they charge you a la carte pricing. Sorry won't be seeing me again. Sad because your soup was actually decent ... read more

Reasonable price, good portions and tastes delicious. Got the crab fried rice and the pad see eww. Would return again

I am not sure what happened to my earlier review and other reviews but I decided to put in another review again after eating here today. The food still tasted as good as before and I especially like the option of replacing meat with tofu and the choice of spicy level in any dish. Most dishes are cooked from scratch and as we order them so we can be sure that the food is freshly prepared. The place is clean and cool and there was nice soft music in the background. Food is served fast and prices are reasonable - a great place to fall back on whenever we can't decide what or where to eat. read more

Favorite Thai food in the corona area. I have tried several dishes and they never disappoint

We just love this restaurant and the service here! We really miss sitting down to eat and catching up with the family but Covid has us distanced for now. Meanwhile they keep serving delicious favorites that we have come to truly enjoy. They have great customer service and we will keep coming back! read more

Very friendly customer service and orders are made quickly short wait time. Great job

My family and I have been coming here for years; I can't believe I'm barely getting around to writing a review. Always, for years, have received delicious meals with friendly service. My favorite dish is the Pad Thai Chicken with a Thai Tea. Other family favorites include: beef broccoli, cashew nut chicken among others. Definitely give this place a shot! read more

I love Thai places and always look for the ones that are usually a hole in the wall and this is one of them! Do not let the outside fool you! Their decoration might need a little upgrading but it is okay. Their food on the other hand is soooo delicious! Got some dumpling and drunken noodles as well as the kung pao chicken! Everything was sooo delicious! read more

Food is great and customer service is top-notch! We love the pad Thai, pad see-iw, and fried rice. My 5-year-old daughter always craves their chicken noodle soup! If we crave Thai food, we always get it from Thai Star. :) read more

My family and I have ordered from Thai Star multiple times. Sometimes via door dash and several times for take out. The food is consistently made and delicious every time. Last time my daughter was craving their bbq ribs and we got there right at closing. They were exceptionally kind and took our order. We were so grateful by such excellent service! read more

So good! I was looking for a Thai restaurant near me since I just moved to the area and this was amazing, I will definitely be back.

Lunch specials served daily. That's a plus. Usually specials are M-F. Comes with soup, salad, choice of steamed or brown rice. Decent interior. Clean and mint green - literally. Arrived at a perfect time; we were the only ones at first. But one person serving four tables. He was good at it! Soup wasn't hot, but still good and gone in a couple gulps. Lunch plate flavor was spicy. I forgot Thai food we should state our preference. We weren't asked about it. Then again, menus didn't have like a tiny chili picture to indicate whether the dish is spicy. It's okay my taste buds are trained ;-P It's a perfect place to stop for food energy on errands day. Location also neighbors a Mexican and Filipino restaurant. One of them was grilling outside. The aroma reminds me of summer :-) It lies along a street nearby gas stations, groceries, clothing/specialty stores, salons/parlors. One stop shop area. Nice and ideal. read more

WOW!!! Riverside Best Thai Food! Really... Oh my gosh, I don't really like Thai food but sometimes, I'll eat their pineapple fried rice or chicken dinner. This time, I ordered their pineapple fried rice and it was nasty. I'd rather eat at Banana Bay or Coconut Bay in Rowland Heights. Be sure to check your receipt. They tried to bust a fast one on us last time by charging us 1% more since the taxes went down on July 1st. Scam artists. read more
