Thai Star

My husband and I love the foods here. We have Papaya Salad (Somtum Thai), Satay chicken and the Pad Chicken with Thai basil leaves (Pad Krapraw Chicken) with rice; they are delicious. If you like good foods, great services and value for money, I recommend to come here at Thai Star restaurant. There is only Thai Star this restaurant in Merced, CA.

Always a wonderful experience - great customer service and some of the best Thai food in town. I had the butternut squash, spinach, chicken and sliced almond salad - absolutely delicious!! Of course, washed it down with a Thai iced coffee.

Doesn't look like much from the outside and isn't quite a high end restaurant, but the food is excellent, the place is clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, the portions are generous, and there are plenty of menu items. If you enjoy Thai food, this is a great option to try out! The Taro Ice Cream is well worth the visit. Some Thai restaurants tend to be skimpy with portions. That is not a problem here, so you'll want to probably not want to order extra, like I did.

We finally tried this place for the first time, today. We can't believe what we have been missing. We loved everything! On top of the delicious food and great service, their online takeout order website is the best I've ever experienced.

The prices are cheap, big helpings, super nice and attentive staff. We tried the shrimp rolls and garden rolls and their coconut ice cream. They were yummy! Cute little place to dine.

The food is delicious, the owner is lovely and always attentive to her patrons' needs. Best Thai food in town!

The food was fast and fresh. The server was attentive. The prices were great compared to most the places around.

Everything was Amazing tastes really good.

I got my chicken pad Thai spicy & it was fire!

Tried this for the first time, and the food was so fresh! I'm glad I was in this shopping center and tried this gem.

Best Thai food since visiting Thailand last year. We had the fried rice, pad gra pow and pad see ew. Definitely the place to eat at if you want the taste of authentic Thai food.

My wife and I have been so tired of being home for a year and a half and have been dying to try Thai Star restaurant. We went by and they were open and on top of that we were able to go in and sit down. We went through the menu and found 3 items that looked appealing to us so we ordered. In a little while they brought out our food. To our surprise all 3 of the dishes we ordered were absolutely delicious. We can't wait to go back and try some more of their delicious food. Give them a try, you might be surprised.

It was delicious! I had the orange chicken (3x spice) with teriyaki beef (4x spice) with steamed rice. The portions are great and I had leftovers for the next morning, which I happily ate again. Will definitely return!! Loved the hostess/cook as well, she works so hard.

This has quickly become our go-to place for Thai food in Merced. It is so good, they let us order online and it is ready fast. Love it.

This place seems to have a but more authentic Thai Food and we are in love with their dishes. You need to try their pot stickers and their beef soup we also really enjoy their lunch menu. The teriyaki and orange chicken are excellent. If you want to order a side of fried rice we highly recommend. Also the spring rolls are so tasty we tried tofu for the 1st time ever and we can't not belive how great the spring rolls were. Aside from those dishes we also really loved the Tom yum soup, the combination appetizer (the golden sacks are 🔥- as in so good lol not spicy). We also have had their teas and let's just say we love this place. In the past 2 weeks we have been there 3 times. 5 stars easy!

This place is awesome ! So underrated, so I had to come on here and give them 5 stars bc babyyy! I got the Butternut squash Chicken curry, and it was so delicious and the suace was everything! Also got a side of fried calamari and I usually dont eat squid but it was too good! Also dont forget to try the desserts! The staff was so polite and checked on us all the time. The restuarant had chill vibes, so yes loved it.

Thai Star is never a disappointment. Everything I have ordered from their menu has generously sized portions, is always freshly cooked, is served in a timely fashion, and is very reasonably priced. Not to mention every dish is delicious. Furthermore, they are family owned and run, and are very kind people who provide good service. I love eating at their establishment, or ordering take-out. My favorite dish is tied between their green curry and thai "crazy" noodle.

One of the many great Thai restaurants in Merced. Never wrong to go here, and they are very consistent in quality. Good value on lunch menu as well.

Some of my goto: Grapao fried rice, Panang Curry, Chicken Larb w/sticky rice.

O M G !!! We just moved to the area after living in Santa Cruz for the last year and in the Bay Area for the last 16. We really thought we were going to miss the Thai restaurants in the bay and in Santa Cruz... until we ate here!! The seafood Tom Kha is off the hook- best I've ever had- and we had the sampler plate of appetizers which was also delicious! It was enough for both of us and we were stuffed and have leftovers! This is our new go-to Thai restaurant!

Absolutely love this place! Little family owned business. Great food and service. Each time I've eaten here I try something new, and haven't been disappointed yet....!
