Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
Bangkok Taste has been a family favorite for years, and it just keeps getting better! The recent updates to the restaurant give it such a warm, homey vibe it feels like you’re stepping into a cozy family kitchen where you know the food is going to hit the spot every single time. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and genuinely happy to see you. They remember faces, make great recommendations, and treat you like family. A rare thing these days! And the food? Consistently incredible. We never leave disappointed. Our go-to dishes are the Pad See Ew, Tom Yum Soup, Yellow Curry, and Basil Beef. Each one packed with flavor, freshness, and that perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory that keeps us coming back. Every bite tastes like it was made with care and love. Whether you’re dining in or taking out, Bangkok Taste delivers on all fronts authentic, flavorful Thai food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. If you’re in the mood for comfort food with serious flavor, this is the place. Five stars all the way. Bangkok Taste is a true gem in Santa Ana!
The restaurant has been newly renovated awhile ago, the owners or waiters are so friendly. Best Thai food and excellent chef in town. Highly recommend to it's authentic taste, quality and service. Khao Mahn Gai chicken ginger rice with real chicken broth soup has been one of my favorite.
The restaurant is well-lighted with nature light. Thai cultural decorations on the wall with modern furniture. We were greeted as we entered and seated. The entire facility is kept spotlessly clean. I appreciate the very clean table/booth. The food is tasty and well prepared and served in good presentation. Options for the levels of spiciness and vegetarian options/alternatives. Freshly made Boba for Thai iced tea. We are happily surprised to find that their Thai food may be so good without being spicy.
Favorite Thai food place in the OC! I love the Khao Soi & Thai tea. The pineapple fried rice is delicious too!
What a pleasant surprise to find this little place tucked in the Santa Ana/Tustin area on Glassell and Fairhaven in the Big Lots shopping strip. Bangkok Taste is small eatery, would probably seat about 30 people but the flavors are pretty big. We didn't have a large supper because we were on our way to a party where there would be more food. But we couldn't eat at the party because we were so full from a plate each pad see ew pork and chicken, angel wings, massaman curry, rice and mango sticky rice to finish it off. What a feast! Plenty leftover for today's lunch. The only thing we didn't finish was the mango sticky rice. The coconut milk was a bit watery, almost no flavor which was a contrast to the absolutely heavenly coconut massaman curry. We don't live in the area but we visit a few times a month so we'll be back and take our time. Friendly and prompt service, great first experience, clean tables and chairs. Loved it!
