Thai Chili

Nice place, fast service. Food was pretty good and lots of choices. The restaurant itself is not what I would call fancy but was fine for me. Servers and staff were prompt and kind. Will be coming back to get out more things on the menu.

Thai Chilli is a cozy local restaurant in Elk Grove with an extensive menu. I recently tried their Thai Noodle Soup and Lao Style Papaya Salad, but unfortunately, they weren’t to my taste. Both dishes leaned heavily on the sweeter side, and even their sriracha and chili oil lacked the spiciness I was hoping for—adding more only made the soup sweeter. I ended up requesting chopped Thai chili to get the heat I wanted. However, their service was exceptional, which is always a plus. While it didn’t suit my palate, it might be just right for you!

Not a good first impression. My food wasn't made as per my instructions. I was told that they didn't think I really wanted it made that way. All i asked for was extra spicy. There was no taste, very bland. I wasn't impressed with the cleanliness. I will not order from here again.

I ordered pad Thai and the shrimp was missing. The flavor was faint. I expected more taste it was mainly noodles.

The food was great! They have a huge menu, and you can choose your meat and the level of spiciness. The food is high quality and delicious. We got six different items for six people and really enjoyed sharing everything. The system of ordering is really convenient and worked well. They have a QR code on the table that lets you not only see the menu, but also order right from your table. We grabbed a table outside and ordered this way, and got quick, friendly service. I'll definitely be back!

Thai Chili was a delightful experience! We started with the tofu spring rolls, which were fresh and light. The rice paper was perfectly chewy, and the tofu paired wonderfully with the crisp veggies. The accompanying peanut sauce was a great addition, adding just the right amount of flavor. For the main course, we had the drunken noodles, and they were fantastic! The noodles were perfectly cooked and had that great chewy texture. The dish was loaded with a variety of vegetables, giving it a nice crunch and freshness. The sauce was flavorful with just the right amount of heat, making every bite delicious. Service was quick and friendly, making our dining experience even better. If you're craving some tasty Thai food, Thai Chili is definitely worth a visit!

Got the Drunken Noodle plate which came with a small kick to it. Wasn't bad at all. Just the right amount for me personally. Also got Chicken Satay that came with I believe peanut sauce..? Anywho, overall I was quite satisfied. The service was good for the most part. No problem there, although I felt like the place was overall just a bit too dim. 😅

Every rime I have gone here I have gotten the best service. The waitress is so friendly and treats you like a friend/family. The whole staff is great. The food is out of this world delicious! I love the curry dishes. Exceptional flavor! This is probably my favorite restaurant!

I decided to try Thai Chili at 8696 Elk Grove Blvd, Ste 5, Elk Grove, CA 95624. This is a restaurant that has been here for many years and has been reviewed over 1,986 times. I was very impressed how clean the restaurant was, although it looked like it was a bit on the older side. Everything was very clean and the spacing of the tables and booths were excellent. However, the restaurant can only support 33 people. It was certainly smaller than I expected. Families are welcomed and the menu is very good. The service was excellent and our server, Francisco, helped me pick out different dishes. I had Thai Ice Tea (very strong and great tasting), Pad Thai (flat noodles and pork), Shrimp spring rolls, red pineapple curry (a little spicy), and of course my favorite desert of all time-fried banana with coconut ice cream. I greatly underestimated the portion size as when it was all done I had enough for another meal to take home. Overall, if you like Thai food, your absolutely going to love this place. Plenty of parking, first class service, outstanding quality food. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Thai Chili if your visiting Elk Grove, CA.

Food: The quality of food has been hit or miss since 3-5 years ago. I really loved the owners when it felt like "a hole in the wall" kind of place. I still get their soup and fresh rolls when I am in the area. I wish the quality can improve. Service: always great, can't complain! It's probably the longest Thai restaurant we have had in EG. I cannot speak for meat eaters, i am a vegetarian and my ratings are only based on vegetarian food items.

Corina and I had lunch here again today. The food and service was excellent as it always is. We have been coming here for like 25 years. I've eaten in this restaurantmore times than any other place I have gone to in my life. We had the Fresh Spring Rolls as they are a pain to make at home and these are very tasty. We tried the Tamarind Shrimp for the first time and loved them. They are something I will make at home. We have never seen a menu with so many different choices and I would like to try everything on it!

Where has this been all my life,? Husband and I went here for dinner and Ordered the Shrimp Noodle Pad Thai and of course Beer. The food was Amazing and full of flavor. There was a wait list and I almost wanted to go elsewhere that wasn't packed. I am so glad my Husband I waited otherwise we Would miss the Gem. AMAZING!! This may be the new place for perfect Date Night. I asked one of the workers how spicy it can be. And Boy It varies alright, Well For me at least! Can't wait to go back!

I don't have any recent pics but it's been a while since I've gotten a decent meal here. I'm sad to say it's been pretty downhill and the flavors just don't hit the same as they use to. And the pricing is pretty crazy in comparison to other places in EG too. The chicken was dry and lacked flavor. I haven't dined in for a while so I can't say much about the service or ambiance. I most recently ordered through door dash.

Good food, fast service and very quiet and comfortable place. This was our second time and we enjoyed ourselves. It's tucked away in a business complex near dollar tree. Lots of parking if you go in the evening.

I've been coming to this restaurant for several years now. The food remains exquisite. We came here on a Sunday afternoon and found that it wasn't as packed as I anticipated. The service is great and it looked like they were possibly shortstaffed, but we still got our food in a timely fashion. This environment is usually pretty chill but today we sat next to noisy people so I asked to move to a booth and attach a table which was not an issue with the servers. Since I do keto most weeks out of the month, this is my go to cheat meal spot when I'm craving noodles and Thai hot spicy red curry

This restaurant has become one of my family's go-to restaurants. Most of the food here tastes great, and their portions justify the prices, so far. Most of the current staff is great, some even go above and beyond to provide attentive service. Meanwhile, I feel obligated to mention for the sake of customers who have allergies: My family often orders yellow curry, always with either tofu or chicken, and usually it's great, but one time, they put in both chicken and shrimp. When we pointed it out, the waiter that day said, that's just how it comes, with both chicken and shrimp. I reiterated, we order this all the time and the chicken never comes with shrimp. The shrimp should not be in here, unless we ordered shrimp. When we tried to flag down another server, he finally admitted he made a mistake. I am severely allergic to shrimp, this could have killed me. However, that was a one-time mistake which they apologized for, and it never happened again. So far.

First time coming here (my hubby, baby and I were in the town to meet with his friend who was visiting.) food: so yummy in the tummy. Drunken noodles were delicious, veggie avocado yellow curry was yum and the duck and spicy chicken fried rices were bomb.com! Service: cool nice staff. Ambiance: cozy and casual.

What we ordered *Ginger Crispy Chicken -large portion -came with 3 dipping sauce -tasty & delicious *Spicy Eggplant (choice of protein -Fish) -large portion -must have - everything about this dish was delicious *Coconut Seafood Soup -a little disappointed that it wasn't served in a metal container with a warmer like most Thai restaurant to keep the soup hot. -surprisly a pleasing soup with generous amount of seafood The restaurant was full when hubby and I arrived on a Friday night. We waited outside for a few minutes. We were greeted with a nice hello from a server named Arturo who also ended up being our server. He was attentive, very pleasant and just had a really welcoming personality. A star for each meal we ordered and a star for ARTURO. Thank you Thai Chili. We will be back.

Been going here since they first opened and still one of my go to's. Occasionally will grab something from here for lunch or dinner to catch up with friends. The food is always so good and everyone here is so nice. It's a small restaurant but it feels really intimate and warm.

This is a hidden gem. Everything here is a flavor bomb. Tyler was an awesome server and had such a fun personality. This is a must try you will not be disappointed.

Decided to give this place a try since I was in the mood for Thai food! Got sat at a table right away. Not the cleanest of places I've been but definitely a great hole in the wall! Calamari-nothing too special, very plain without the sweet chili sauce Fresh shrimp spring rolls- refreshing crisp, and minty, sauce is sweet and tangy. Pad Thai- Really delicious and flavorful, one of the best ones I've had. Huge portion Green curry- Amazing taste of flavor and great with rice and the pad Thai. Definitely can't wait to come back again!

I haven't been here in over a year. Came in on a Weds night for dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday. Staff were friendly. It wasn't too busy but there was another big grp that arrived after we were seated. Food was good. Disappointed in the drunken noodle with real crab meat. I Didn't taste any crab. Ordered: Thai Papaya Salad 3 was the perfect level for us Drunken Noodles w/ Real Crab Meat Pineapple Fried Rice w/ Seafood Combo Spicy Eggplant w/ Fish Grilled Combo meat Veg Green Curry w/ Egg Plant additional $2 They charge for Thai Peanut Sauce ($2.50) Mango sticky rice Singha Everything was good but my favorite was the pineapple fried rice & mango sticky rice. The veggie curry with eggplant was really good too.

Wanted to give it another chance, it got worse. -1 star. The least flavorful and bland Thai food in town. I guess I'll have to go all the way downtown to eat decent Thai food, cook with passion and use real flavor. It's so disappointing. Waste of money

Thai chili is hands-down my longtime favorite Thai restaurant. I am absolutely obsessed with their crispy fried chicken and all the curry dishes that they serve on the menu. They give generous portion size and everything is just delicious. I have been coming here for many years and the quality of food remains consistent and good. The service staff is always welcoming and friendly and attentive to our dining needs. It is a popular place so it can get busy but the wait time is never too long. You definitely want to come and check out the Thai food at Thai chili as you won't be disappointed.

Food was good. I got an order of summer salad rolls and they were huge! It comes 3 to an order and it fills the take out plate! I didn't pick up the food so can't comment on the restaurant.

Nice casual ambiance, the waiter was friendly. This is my first time trying po take, it's very similar to Tom yum, very delicious flavorful and robust flavors. Definitely a great soup especially if you're under the weather. I finished my night with the fried bananas and coconut ice cream, all I can say is "get it!!!!!!"

Thai Chili has large portions for a decent price! I really enjoyed my Pad Kee mao with chicken, which I took some to-go because I got so full before I finished! Thai tea was great and for $4.50, I cannot complain. The bamboo shoots in the meal was a nice twist to the pad kee mao. It was a wonderful addition. Super content with my dinner and will come back to definitely try the satay skewers!

Delicious local Thai food. Many different dishes to choose from that will delight the palate. The Shrimp Pad Thai and Thai fried with chicken, and Pineapple red curry are some of my favorites. The Thai Tea is also quite tasty and satisfying as a dessert. The service is good, they do get very busy so do aware sometime they phone will ring and ring. The inside of the restaurant is nice and has soft lighting.

Dropped in on a Wednesday night. The food quality was amazing. Ordered the home style garlic wings which were fried to perfection. My fav part was that they were all flats! The see ew noodles with shrimp and green curry was also SUUUPER tasty. They have a spice rating of 1-5 and I ordered a level 2 which had a decent kick but I feel like I could've maybe ventured out into the level three range. Thai chili also had really good portion sizing. The staff were super nice and attentive and the place was quiet, clean, and able to be seated as soon as I walked through the door. Will come back 5/5

Shared parking lot in a plaza. Nicely decorated Thai restaurant. Friendly staff greeted us when we arrived and were quickly seated. Several servers were tentative and continued to have our drinks filled. Food was pretty good and full of flavors. Portions are family style so be prepared to share. We tried several dishes. Coconut soup, pad Thai, chicken yellow curry, hot basil ground chicken, Thai ginger beef. And all was good. Definitely will return and highly recommend.

My go to restaurant for Thai food. I have been coming to this restaurant for many years. Whether it's takeout or dine in, the food is always solid. Pad Thai 8/10, calamari 7/10, pumpkin curry 9/10, duck fried rice 9/10, pad see ew 10/10. I got takeout this time and the calamari was soft but i don't fault it.

I haven't been visited Thai Chili for a while but their food are still very delicious with affordable price, service is quick and staff is very friendly, highly recommended!

Service was excellent. We ordered Pad Thai with chicken, yellow curry chicken, and chicken basil that were big portions and tasted yummy.

Food portion and quality is out of this world!! I typically prefer trying new restaurants over keep visiting the same spot, so it means a lot when I say I always visit when I am in the area. The staffs are super friendly and tables are always clean. Highly highly recommend if you like Thai food!

Food was delicious as usual although the green curry was a little more on the blander side than usual and tasted closer to the yellow curry. Drunken noodles with crab was bomb. Money bags were delish. Curry puffs were tasty. Enjoyed the fried rice as well. Service was great. Ambiance was casual and clean. Can't wait to be back. Yum!

First time here, the service was great. They were very attentive. The restaurant is not big but clean and busy. We enjoyed the food and if back in the area we will come again. The sticky mango rice was fantastic so be sure you get that!!

Food: I LOVE THAI FOOD :D!! They gave out big portion and they were really generous!! For example, in the avocado yellow curry there was a lot avocado in it!! Ohh and LOTS OF MEAT!! Service: Good service! Always checked up on us to make sure we had everything we needed! Also FAST SERVICE! Props to chef making yummy food fast! Ambiance: A small lively restaurant! And well kept! Will come again!

Are you looking for a great restaurant in Elk Grove, CA to enjoy amazing Thai cuisine, served by friendly staff, at a reasonable price? You'll find the cuisine of Thailand, served daily at Thai Chili, located on Elk Grove Blvd., in Elk Grove, CA. The dining room is quite compact, and is tastefully decorated as you'd expect in a Thai restaurant. Just like practically every Thai restaurant, there is a portrait of King Maha Vajiralongkorn, who has been the head of state in Thailand since 2016. The dining room is clean, comfortable and well organized. The menu is absolutely GIGANTIC - six pages in total - and offers all of your Thai favorites, with something for every taste listed on the menu. The bargecue section of the menu especially grabbed my attention, as I adore the combination of barbecue and Thai peanut sauce. "Praram Chicken with Peanut Sauce and Thai Fried Rice" was a natural choice for me. From the "Barbecue" section of the menu, I went with "Praram Chicken with Peanut Sauce and Thai Fried Rice." The menu describes this delicious entree as "Grilled, marinated chicken, served on a bed of vegetables with peanut sauce and Thai fried rice." I describe this amazing dish with simply one word: Delicious! The main entree of the menu was the "Praram Chicken," which was marinated to give it a robust, subtle, yet sweet flavor which was simply unbelievably delicious! Note to self: I need to do some homework on Thai marinade. The chicken was thinly sliced and grilled to perfection, complete with attractive grill marks. When it comes to Thai chicken, beauty is only skin deep, as this chicken was juicy, super tender and flavorful. Surprise! ... the chicken was already sliced, and since it was so tender, using a fork was a simple matter to cut it into bite size pieces, for dipping into the peanut sauce. Such great Thai chicken! The chicken was placed on a bed of steamed vegetables, which included sliced carrot, lettuce, broccoli, along with a slice or two of onion. The veggies were fresh and tender, and especially delicious, since juice from the chicken dripped down to add extra flavor. The "Thai Rice" was plated next to the chicken in a round ball, as per the way it's served in Thailand. The rice was white rice, which I'm going to "assume" was cooked in chicken broth, rather than plain water, as it had a delicious, robust flavor, and was slightly golden brown in color. A few peas, chopped carrot and onion graced the rice, to add color and flavor. Oh my! ... the rice was simply delicious, and it was so good that you could make a entire meal of it! To complete this delicious lunch, a cup of creamy, rich Thai "Peanut Sauce" was included for dip, which amounted to the "frosting on the cake" when it came to dipping. Wow! I cut off small pieces of chicken, dipped it into the sauce, closed my eyes, took a bite and was instantly transported to Bangkok, during my Navy days. Thai Chili has achieved a reputation as one of the finest Thai restaurants in the greater Sacramento area, as their reputation is certainly deserved, thanks to their delicious Thai cuisine, fast, friendly service, and great dining atmosphere. Come enjoy the delicious Thai cuisine that Sacramento area "foodies" rave about... Thai Chili, located in Elk Grove, CA.

We just discovered Thai Chilies in Elk Grove, California. It's my husband's birthday and I wanted to treat him to something special. And we found a good one! It's very easy to find and a welcoming vibe. We ordered a lot of food because we always like to take leftovers home and we were not disappointed. The menu selection is enormous and varied. The service is friendly excellent. We didn't have to wait very long, which is good because we were hungry. This is our new favorite Thai place and we'll be going back even though we're 30 miles away. I just wish DoorDash could drive that far! !

The food is always prepared fresh and hot. Great service. Not good location as it is hard to find parking.

Thai Chili has exceptionally flavored dishes. We like the Pad Thai, beef larb, grilled steak with vegetables and sticky rice to name a few. Thai tea is very tasty!

It was okay. The crab meat drunken noodles was a unique flavor I wouldn't mind trying again. Pad thai was good. Points for being open late when other thai places in EG close earlier.

Thai Chili is definitely one of the best thai places I've had in Elk Grove. I got the Drunken Noodles with beef. First of all the portion is HUGE. It comes with a ton of beef which I love. I did not specify how spicy I wanted the dish, but the balance of flavors was just perfect. It had freshness from what I believe is basil, sweetness, a hint of sour from the bamboo and mixed with the perfect amount of spiciness. The noodles were a nice chewy texture. Overall, a solid spot for Thai food in the area. Also plenty of parking in the plaza!

I've been coming to Thai Chili for years but lately their food has been inconsistent. My husband and I order our usual curry puffs, pad thai, and pineapple fried rice. Today the food was salty and other times it lacked flavor. I usually don't write reviews but I'm hoping that they can resolve this issue so I can keep coming back because this is my favorite Thai restaurant.

My husband and I was craving for some Thai food and this place was the closest to us while we were in the area. The restaurant is very clean and beautifully decorated. The server is super friendly and welcoming. We were seated quickly. The water has a slice of lime in it (FANCY) and the thai tea is so good. The food is good too but I can make the Thai beef at home. The curry is too sweet but we'll definitely come back and try more of their menu. We were satisfied

Food is always yummy. So much to choose from on the menu. We always go with the classic but they never ever disappoint. Service is always great. Music can be loud at times.

Thai Chili is the OG thai food spot in Elk Grove. But I think they still remain the best. The pad Thai is unmatched. I really like the amount of food they give. And their food has a lot of flavor. The service and kitchen keeps up with how busy they are. They are constantly getting to-go orders, and they are always crowded inside and outside.

It's been years since I've had Thai Chili. Decided to make the drive and order take out since I was craving some Thai food. Note, this review is nothing related to the service or ambiance but more so the quality of the food. Food was ready in the timeframe noted for pick up which is always a plus for weekend dinner hours. I ordered the Laos style papaya salad. Menu on the website notes there's tomatoes and yeah definitely did not have that. Doesn't look like they even tum it. It just looks like they poured fish sauce over shredded papaya. I also ordered the beef larb which was just ok. The only dish that I thought was decent was the Pad Thai. Although I noted spicy level 2/5 on all my items, I didn't find it was spicy whatsoever. Curious if the quality would be different if I dined in. Nonetheless I am unlikely to order from here again.

I would give this place zero stars if I could. We ordered fried rice and yellow curry for takeout, but both dishes were hard and seemed stale. As we ate, it became clear that the food wasn't fresh. Unfortunately, our instincts were correct, as the takeout spoiled by 4 PM that same day. Thai Chilli, please don't charge for fresh ingredients if you can't deliver quality!

They close at 8:30pm not 9:00pm. We got there at 8:40pm and was told they aren't seating anyone and then proceeded to tell me they need ask if they can do take out. If you aren't sitting people and aren't taking takeout orders your established is closed?

It's been years since I've been here. It's still relatively the same, just more expensive. It was a busy Saturday night for them. The crew was good, nothing to write home about. The food came out pretty fast after ordering. Honestly, almost $20 for chicken fried rice is pretty crazy these days, but whatever, I'm supporting local businesses. The thai steak was a decent portion. That was my go to years ago. Still reminds me of when I was growing up in the area, so it had a great nostalgia feel.

Best Thai food in the Elk Grove area. Love how they have their herbs right outside the restaurant. Food is definitely authentic and delicious. Service is great, even when it's super busy. Love how they don't rush you to leave. They also have all the extra condiments that you may need at the table.

The food is always good when I go here. I go here a couple times a month. My favorite is the pineapple fried rice with tofu and vegetable stir fry. The rice has a wonderful curry spice on it with cashews raisins and vegetables. The vegetables are fresh and crunchy. The servers are pleasant and responsive. They bring the food out quickly. The restaurant is casual. They also do a big takeout business.

I don't know what happened, regarding management, ownership, or chefs, but this place is much better than it was last time I had food from this place. I had the Tom Kha and the crab fried rice. Its definitely money's worth. I may come back on a regular basis in the new year. Thank you.

Try out this place after a while and it was mediocre. I got the pineapple fried rice and a pad Thai. The padthai I barely had any protein in it and the fried rice was all right. I'll give it a 7 out of 10

I cannot say enough great things about Thai Chili! It's the only Thai food I will spend my money on! And the prices are very reasonable! Iv tried many other Thai restaurants in my area, Lodi, south sac, etc, this is by FAR thee best!! You cannot go wrong with anything you order here!! My go to is the Panang curry w tofu and brown rice, the pineapple fried rice, and you have to try their desserts! Fried banana and coconut ice cream, MANGO STICKY RICE W COCONUT MILK IS ADDICTIVE!!!

I have no idea if this is just the place in Elk Grove to get Thai or what but this place was busy when we walked in. The lighting is dim and the restaurant seems homey. We ordered several items as it was our first time there and we were unsure what to order. I was mostly looking forward to their thai orange chicken. I know what you're thinking. That sounds more like Chinese food. Well, let me say that the picture is not what you get. I was disappointed. You get a few slices of battered chicken with some sreamed vegetables and a sauce in a cup. It wasn't great. The food we did order wasn't great. I'm unsure why this place is so popular. Bangkok at 12th is where ill go from now on. We spent $130 and tossed most of it. I wanted to like it but we just didn't.
