12440 San Pablo Ave

Tried PraJam for the first time last week and was not disappointed! Appreciated the kind service and laid back atmosphere where it was easy to relax and eat. Very happy with the food, so we ordered catering from them for our small party this weekend. Got half trays of a few items: crab fried rice, pad Thai, green curry, white rice, and added a few orders of taro puff pastry. Everything was so good--fresh, tasty, spice level as requested, and they were able to have this ready by my requested pickup time, which was much appreciated. The biggest hit at our gathering was the taro puff pastry. They were so fresh, carefully made, soft, and delicate--totally worth it. Thank you so much for the wonderful food, and looking forward to dining with you again.

Ate here 2 weeks ago for the first time and LOVED IT! We got the basil spicy fried rice & drunken noodles. Everything was made fresh and steaming hot when it got to our table. I don't know why it took me so long to check this place out. It was amazing!

I came here and didn't want to but we were hungry and my husband was game. I wasn't too jazzed but then I saw that they have a lot of gluten free options which is fine, because these are dishes that don't typically have gluten. I hope this doesn't hurt them. But the person working there greeted us and sat us down at a table. He was very nice and I loved that they labeled the food as gluten free. And it was very, very good! I loved it. I had the Thai iced coffee which was good. My husband got the iced tea. It was warm enough. But I got the bbq pork and it was very flavorful and I ate it with the cabbage. My husband got another dish and he liked it. I had leftovers and they did heat up well. The place is very cute inside. I was bummed that there weren't more people but I saw a number of people come in and get food to go which is good. But, I hope that people discover this gem. It's truly good and is much easier to get to than Point Richmond.

Holy wow. We ordered three different soups, and all were way better than expected. There is so much flavor! Highly recommend.

Decided to try this new Thai restaurant after discovering it on Yelp. I was impressed with the menu options so I had to try it. This is a hole in wall type restaurant, small but always busy with a lot of takeout orders. There's was probably only three people running the restaurant but they were fast and friendly! We ordered the pad Thai, pad kee mao, pumpkin curry, spicy eggplant, Thai iced tea, and Tom yum. I felt the dishes were not all consistent in terms of flavor, some were salty but some were on the bland side. The Tom yum soup and pad kee mao was not aromatic like other Thai restaurants I've been too. However the pad Thai was my favorite, can never go wrong with pad Thai! Don't forget to check in for 10% off! This was a nice offer as items here are at the mid range in terms of pricing. Parking is limited here, their lot fits 3-4 cars only. So only other option is street parking.

Prajam is an unassuming spot in Richmond sharing space with an oil change shop next door. Interior is spacious and spare, and food is unsparingly delicious. I've had both a seafood glass noodle dish and a green curry there - the real deal. I love that there's a more than solid Thai spot near home

Back again to try the lunch special, and once again, we were impressed! The super friendly service and great ambiance make this a go-to spot. They open early, so it's perfect for a Thai brunch. The lunch special is simple yet satisfying -- you get to pick an appetizer, main dish, a protein, and a drink. Every dish we tried was fresh and absolutely delicious. If you haven't already, give PraJam a try -- you'll love it!

The Pad See Ew is FIRE!! So so good. Noodles are soft and chewy - I hope they're home made cuz that's exactly how they tasted. Perfect amount of sauce. We got beef, and it was pretty tender. No major complaints on that dish. Customer service was awesome! Super friendly staff taking my phone order and helping me with the pick up. We also got the yellow curry which was a bit of a let down. Super liquidy and barely any chicken added. There was also an over powering spice that I can't describe that wasn't too pleasant. I probably won't be adding that to my future orders, but I'll definitely be back for the pad see ew alone!

Really good new Thai spot on San Pablo just into Richmond. We had the spicy curry noodle soup and it was huge and delightful. Super soft tofu , tons of noodles, flavor.etc. Eggplant dish Devine. Service great , fast and friendly! Highly recommend!

I ordered via grub hub. I was hungry so I did eat some but definitely no "wow factor". I ordered chicken soup. The broccoli was overcooked, soft. Very little meat and veggies, mainly broth. I asked for it spicy. It had a little heat but broth was oily and a red color instead of clear. The noodles were stuffed in a small container with the bean sprouts ON TOP?! Should've been packaged separately. I also ordered "bbq" chicken over fried rice. I got chicken thighs, not sure of the flavor; maybe curry but I ordered barbecue chicken! In the picture the meat looks like chicken breast and it's nicely sliced. The thighs were not sliced. Order should match the picture. I leave reviews when it's great and I'm honest when it's not. Unfortunately this was not.

Small place, very nice folks, and the green curry was good! Not nearly as sweet as everywhere else. Probably closer to a real Thai taste.

Ordered to go last night and i was amazed how good the food was. Pad Thai was flavorful and not dry, i added shrimp and it was a good amount of food. The green curry was fresh and tasted so good. Will come back to try some more dishes.

I enjoy ordering delivery from here just because the lot and place looks small. But the food? YES. Even with delivery, the food is hot, flavorful, fresh and hits the spot every time. My favorites are the calamari, crab rangoon, pad see ew, spicy curry noodle and drunken noodle. Thai tea and Thai coffee always hits. Good, filling food that just brings you comfort from your head to your toes!!

One of the best Thai places I visited in Richmond Ca .. forever my go to spot for now on! WONDERFUL FLAVORS and cooked with LOVE

Food was good! The flavor was nice. Got the crab fried rice which was very generous. The rice was a bit overcooked but overall it had great flavor. The chicken basil was very tasty! The chicken was tender and good. Lots of pieces and it comes with rice. This is a good place to sit down or for takeout.

My sister and I was craving, and was in the area and decided to give this place a try! It's pretty small inside, probably not great for large parties. Parking is pretty tight, but you can always park on the street. It's right next to a smog shop. We ordered, mango with sticky rice, drunken noodles, crab Rangoon, firecracker shrimp (I think that's what it's called) and a stir fry. Everything was definitely flavorful. Out of everything we ordered, the stir fry was the best dish. Our waiter was really nice and very attentive. Overall, I would come back.

2nd day in a row ordering from this restaurant through Uber Eats. Good portion, fast delivery, and very tasty. I highly recommend their Pad Sew Ew! My usual protein choice is shrimp, and unlike a lot of other Thai places they give you your moneys worth for that extra charge. Hoping they are able to add spice levels on delivery apps, but can't wait to check them out in person! Overall, really solid spot in Richmond. Good price, portion, and food comes fast.

The food at this restaurant is awesome!! The service is great they are very friendly. This restaurant is small but they will make arrangements to have table settings organized.

The food here is absolutely amazing and delicious! Freshly made to order. It does not look like much on the outside- but is super clean & cute inside. This is our favorite new Thai restaurant. We usually get take out.

They always push out great food and provide excellent service. Hoping they stick around for a while! Nice to have this spot in Richmond. Tip: lunch special for $18 is a great deal! One appetizer, one main, and a beverage.

Tried this place for the first time and loved it! We ate at the restaurant - it was clean and they are super friendly. We ordered Massaman Curry with tofu, Pad Thai with tofu, and Mango Tango With tofu. It was all delicious. Our favorites were the Pad Thai and the Mango Tango. We'll definitely be back!

The location is a little funky, sandwiched between two auto shops, but the pumpkin curry is spot on. I came in right before they were going to close and they were nice enough to serve me dinner. Ambiance is whatever, but the food is bangin'

Had the best time at PraJam! I had the best massamam curry I've ever tasted in the Bay Area, and shared a tom kha and spicy lemon grass with my boyfriend. The staff are friendly and fun. The maneki neko they have also makes me laugh, it's a cute personal touch. It's a no-frills place where you get great value for amazing Thai food. We'll definitely be back!!!

This place is definitely a hidden gem! The food is delicious, the dinning area is beautifully decorated and the staff is juts great! A must- try for sure !!

Wonderful food and quick preparation. I haven't been disappointed with anything I've ever ordered from here.

UPDATE: Clean bathrooms! yummy curry--spicy when I forgot to ask for not spicy. Super friendly and nice customer service. Very attentive.

The decor is bare bones utilitarian. The food? Anything but. A piping hot bowl of green curry infused coconut accompanied by sizeable mound of fragrant Jasmine rice. Basil, string beans, red bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and purple eggplant are accompanied by plump sweet, white shrimp. This gave me a slight runny nose. A sure sign of good heat! Opposite of LL Cool J, "Call it a comeback!", and like the governator, "I'll be back!".

Thai restaurant with all flavorful currys and well cooked vegetables. The curries served to go are very warm and delicious with tofu or salmon. If you like Asian deserts, the mango sticky rice is delicious. Unfortunately / fortunately it might not be available if the mangoes aren't ripe. A nice surprise given the block doesn't look particularly fancy. The place is surrounded by businesses that close in the evening, so it's easy to park. The dining room is combined with an open kitchen, and both are tidy. If I could use half points, I would take half a star for the dining room floor feeling a bit simple next to everything else. Great product and more affordable than most Thai restaurants, enjoy it while it's building a clientele and the line is short.

Delicious food prepared while you wait or online order. I love that it's next to a muffler shop -doesn't bother me. The inside is nice enough with tables and chair for dinning in. The food is very tasty. I love the green curry and pad kee mao. I'm going to try the beef noodle soup next!

Does well as delivery. Garlic noodles with extra chicken was tasty, not overwhelming or overly greasy. The extra chicken portion was generous. Egg rolls were crisp snd flavorful. Thai iced tea with oat milk hit the spot, is not overly sweet, and I really appreciate that PraJam has 3 milk options to choose from (Half & Half, Oat, and Coconut). The weakest link was the mango & sticky rice: tasty, good and generous mango, but the rice was not as sticky as I like it. Rice also could have used more sesame seed topping, but it was still yummy. Prices were sometimes a little high (nearly $11 for mango&sticky rice), but not terribly so. Glad this place has opened in my neighborhood.

The place really did not have parking. Parked on the street. Shady area. It was clean. Bright. Food looked good. But not really Thai. No fresh spring rolls. Only fried ones. Only had cabbage inside. I ordered curry. Very sweet. No heat. Asked for pepper sauces. I ate because I was hungry. They need a new menu and chef. Sorry guys.

Recently opened Thai restaurant in my neighborhood. Decided to try it since they offer 20% off for their grand opening. We ordered Massaman Curry and Tom Yum with tofu to go. Spice and taste are on point. We also received free Thai milk tea. Highly recommend!!!

We ordered take out. My wife was really impressed with their delicious Pad Thai. My wife is pretty choosey when it comes to this dish and she really enjoyed it. She said one of the best she's ever had. I had the BBQ chicken and it was amazing. This is our go-to for Thai food from now on. Highly recommended!

We had a delightful experience tonight at PraJam Thai! They have a real knack for making authentic Thai dishes while offering a good presentation. We struck up a conversation with the proprietor as he explained the reason for leaving Berkeley and setting up their restaurant here in Richmond. Since we live in Richmond now, we only have to travel half a mile instead of all the way to Berkeley. And unlike Berkeley, they have parking right on the premises!

We had the combo lunch which includes an appetizer (2-fried chicken wings, 2-fried egg rolls), entree (garlic noodles & pad Thai) and a beverage (sprite and coke). The food was delicious with good size portions of the entrees and tasty appetizers. The server was friendly, attentive and efficient. Although the ambiance could be better for a restaurant, it was clean and comfortable. It's for casual dining and there are lots of other menu items to try on a return visit.

Great food, quick delivery too. I was craving Thai food and it really hit the spot. Slightly pricey, it'll be a special meal kind of place for our family.

I'm SO thankful PraJam opened up in Richmond. Their food is so delicious. I'm at huge fan of their crab fried rice, yellow curry, and pad see ew. You really cannot go wrong with PraJam. Their service is always friendly and welcoming. No matter where I live, I'll always be coming here for my thai food fix.

We just had lunch at PraJam Thai; and the food was so much better than what we expected; and even more delicious than most Thai food that we ever had around the Bay Area. Dining in, the owner and staff were friendly and punctual; and as others have already mentioned, clean, cute, and bright. We cannot wait to try so many more items on the menu in the near future!

Having work done at the auto shop next door, walked over to try lunch at this new Thai joint. I only got one dish, the Sesame Noodles. Holy Potatoes was I surprised at how fresh and tasty the dish was. Truly did not expect it to be this good. The staff was charming and attentive. Portions fair sized. Despite the location between two automotive service facilities, the interior was clean and pleasant. I look forward to trying more dishes!

Great food every time. I would say it's a diamond in the rough. Not a fancy place inside but the dishes are excellent and the people who own it and work there are so very nice and friendly. If I order online it's always ready quickly and exactly when they say it will be. If you eat inside the service is wonderful.

Probably 3.5 stars but I couldn't do .5 Food was good and service was nice and fast. Pretty bare bones ambiance. We ordered the roti and yellow curry. Roti was good. Yellow curry a little sweet. My hubby got the eggplant stir fry. Packed with flavor, but kind of thick and a bit overly saucy. I got green curry with pork. Good sized portion. I asked for medium spice and it was more like mild to me. Curry was also a bit thinner. Mango sticky rice - mango was sweet and ripe. The sticky rice was a bit too sweet and a bit too runny for me. We ate there. Parking on the street. There's 2 small spots out front. Takeout will probably hold up well. I'll be back to try their noodles and other dishes. Support local business!

Great vegetarian Egg Plant dish! Fresh veggies and I love the mushrooms! Great service.

I came in this place first opened up. The food was great. I've rarely seen other people in there so the service is always fast and super friendly.

This was very good. FRESH ingredients, well composed. Drunken noodles and basil chicken, both excellent and fast. A twenty percent off grand opening special did not hurt either and allowed for a bit extra gratuity. Great! Clean place, very charming & friendly staff, close, excellent takeout packaging, fair pricing. It's time to confess: We have undervalued good, diverse, family run places too long. It is an excellent addition to the neighborhood, and street parking, just,off the San Pablo exit and on the way home. Love. I found the "medium spicy" eye-wateringly spicy but utterly delicious on all counts. Next time: I'm ordering everything "mild, kindly. With half the fresh jalapeño, please." Plus: it's the shortest of strolls up San Pablo to the Factory Bar, where you can get a fresh poured local beer to wash down that fiery delight and sit outside in the magnificent hidden garden. #thefactorybar. Top notch evening, under $100 for two people (dinner with leftovers, a pair of pints, a walk, and a rest in a darkened garden, with your lovely neighborhood crowd and Michelle's magic playlist. PSA: Could we please consider respecting staff, pay equitable wages and provide benefits? We are glad to pay for services.

Food..... they do not have fresh spring rolls on the menu...only fried egg rolls. Unfortunately, the egg rolls were undercooked. They were not crispy brown on the outside and the wrapping was doughy and undercooked on the inside. The sesame noodles with tofu were bland and I could not taste any sesame. There just seemed to be no real flavor to them. The tofu was interesting as it was fried and sort of like a puff ball. I was expecting fresh tofu and did not care f or the tofu cooked in this way. Perhaps I did not read the description in the menu? This place is local for me and I was really hopeful based on the great reviews that it would be a new favorite place. I will probably go back and give them another chance. Until then, I would not recommend this place.

Like most Thai restaurants, Pra Jam is clean & neat, with staff that are polite & friendly. It's a casual place with ordering at the counter. For some reason, that struck me as going well with the Fusion slant on the cuisine. And it's popular already-- lots of to go orders were picked up while I was there. Be aware that you may have to park on the street as the restaurant is literally sandwiched between the smog place & another car kind of place. Parking in the lot is at a premium. I really liked the Sesame Noodles & I will gladly get them again. They even left the peanuts off when my partner asked if the dish had a lot of peanuts on it. We also got veggie egg rolls & chicken gyoza, which were good & also a good move since I was getting scarily hangry. For the Bay Area, the $15ish you'll pay for an entrée is totally reasonable. I'm excited to go back!

Great service, tasty food, good phone. Order online, call in your order, just show up and order it's all good. AND I always forget this place is just a short walk from Catahoula Coffee.

Basil chicken and padseeyu is my fav. Their food is very good. Found this place close to my home. Definitely will comeback. You won't regret it.

Trying Prajam for the first time. It's new to the neighborhood. I ordered the pineapple fried rice with chicken & shrimp with a side of veggies. Service was quick with a smile. (Although, I was the only person in the place). I ordered to go. They did not provide me with utensils or napkins. This is the old Mississippi Catfish spot. They did a nice job re-decorating. Not much of an upgrade so to speak but it's clean, bright and inviting. Plenty of seating inside. Parking around here is always a challenge. The rice portion was plentiful. A little fry & not very flavorful. It was full of protein, pineapple, cashews, raisins. It also had green onion & a single chunk of .
