True to form for Porterville take over a restaurant and cut corners. Chile crisp is easy to make and at Thai kitchen it use to be addicting. Now it's just hot and flavor less!! It use to have crispy garlic, green onions with heat. Love heat. I don't even know how you are able to get the result they have unless it's just oil and Chile flake oil. This goes up there with Middle Eastern food passing off mayo or yogurt with garlic as toum sauce. It's not hard it's just lazy. Please put some love in your food ...please!

The food is consistently delicious! Hands down the best Asian restaurant in Porterville! We're so lucky to have an authentic Thai food like this!!!

I ordered to go, and asked for extra side of dressing. They forgot to put Any Dressing and they did not include forks and napkins. This is not the first time they do this to my order. I want to support small businesses but I hate when they get things all wrong.

Terrible .... new owners came in , raised prices , give you less food and worst of all they changed the recipes and are totally cutting corners .... the quality has suffered big time ... they even changed the chili oil .... it was one of those addicting things they had that no one else did ..... and now it's terrible , the food is subpar .... just such a disappointing place now

Try the Pad See Ew or the Drunken Noodles. Service is great.
The fried rice was probably the worst I've ever had in my life + the restaurant smelled not so well. I feel bad though because the people working were genuinely really nice.

I have been coming to this place for a few years and I went back after awhile only to find out that it is under new ownership.I was shocked at how good the food was and the owner even has a vegan-friendly part of the menu that is being built upon. I've tried the tofu satay and the vegan poke bowl which are both phenomenal as well as their thai iced tea which they can use coconut milk in place of half-and-half which I highly recommend. The prices are a bit high, but it is like that everywhere. Side dish prices are very good, though so, mix and match to get the best flavor combo and make it easier on your wallet. Do yourself a favor and check out the new items!Dietary restrictions: Vegan-friendly

Thai Kitchen was packed and the pick up orders were going crazy. That was a great sign. The staff was very friendly. We ordered the drunken noodles extra spicy, Tom Yum soup, and crispy catfish. The food was amazing. Sweet, spicy, umami. I honestly can't way to go back. My whole family was stoked. The only downside is, we did wait like 45 minutes food. But the wait... was well worth the food.

If I could rate this no stars, I would. This was my first time ordering from here and I ended up finding a bug in my Pad Thai. This is absolutely disgusting and don’t order from here unless you want bugs in your food!

I waited 35 minutes before getting any food , asked for it to go and still nothing. waitress was in such a hurry she took someone's order before mine, even after she seated me, rude. I waited 5 minutes more then I left won't food because I had to get back to work. not going over there again. they lost my business.
First time here, food was DELICIOUS. I had no clue what I was ordering and loved every single dish. ????

So totally agree that the new owners have taken a Porterville gem built by Preecha and his staff and run it into the ground. Why would anyone make changes to a winning menu/recipe?? I don't know why they would decide to close on Saturdays when everyone is out and about. I am mourning the death of what WAS the best Thai restaurant in the Valley.

Panang curry and druken noodles were good. Veg spring roll was crispy from outside but the inner filling was cold. Service was good. Ambiance was okay.
