Haven’t been here in a while. Food is still delicious. Hubby got the ice Thai coffee, yellow chicken curry and chicken satay. I got the Thai pho and the spiciest papaya salad. Normally,we get our own because I like it spicy and hubby does like spicy food. This time the papaya salad was super spicy so I took it home and mix it with other stuff I had at home to balance out the spicy flavor. Server was nice and quick. Nice quiet place to dine in for dinner. It gets crowded around dinner time.

Siam Garden Cafe holds a special place in my heart as my favorite spot from when I was stationed in Hawaii over 10 years ago, and it’s just as incredible as I remember. I order the Jungle Curry, prepared medium with chicken, and Sticky Rice. It is vibrant and packed with flavor—the perfect blend of coconut milk, carrots, cabbage, lime leaf, and basil made for an incredibly smooth and comforting dish. I wish I knew the recipe because I haven’t been able to find Jungle Curry, or any Curry for that matter, that comes anywhere close. Consistently delivers authentic, flavorful dishes that transport me back in time. If you’re in Hawaii and craving Thai cuisine, this spot is an absolute must-visit!

So happy we decided to stop for something to eat before the movie. Everything was excellent. Staff, atmosphere and especially the food. Ordered too much as everything looked great. Will absolutely be returning. Thank you for your excellent food.

Stop by for lunch with Mom. Ordered the yellow curry with chicken and a bowl of Jasmine rice. Curry was rich flavorful, and delicious. Rice is rice. A good portion that fills you up. A go-to place for dates and meetings, as well as family dinners. Go check them out.

The food here has been excellent for years. My fav dish is the drunken noodles. The ambience is Thai inspired with gold finishes. There is parking in front of the restaurant off Nimitz or under the building. I highly recommend them. FYI, they don't take reservations.

Bad: expensive, separate charge for rice, presented with total charge instead of bill - the menu states they'll charge 15 to 20 percent gratuity. Asked to tip without seeing the bill. Good: food was delicious, entree portion was generous, atmosphere was nice, waitresses were attentive.

Am I in Bangkok or Honolulu? Legit Thai food that has exceeded the mark in taste, freshness and presentation. I didn't have have time to take pictures before digging in because I couldn't. Don't miss out!

The food was great, but $125 for 2 people is a lot for just 1 appetizer, 2 meals, and 1 dessert. There's plenty of other thai places with just as good food for 1/2 the price. Also, service wasn't that great, never came back to check after dropping off food, and our water was empty the whole time. Great atmosphere, especially for a strip mall. Plenty of parking, although the front spots fill up, we parked on the roof and walked down.
