Royal Thai Restaurant

October 2023:
Stopped by for lunch and shared the Bangkok street noodles and the avocado salad.

It's been probably 12 years since I ate here last. Back then, the restaurant was often very crowded. Today for lunch, there weren't many people.

The street noodles were very tasty 😋. Had ground chicken and shrimp 🦐! The rice noodles were cooked perfectly in the sauce.

The avocado 🥑 salad was delicious. Good dressing with lots of ingredients.

Would definitely come back again. I thought the menu had a lot of great options.

Wow. Really really good Thai food. Intense flavors. I had delivery. Next time I’m dining in. Pad kee mao had so many layers of flavor. Crab Rangoon was crispy and with real crab and creamy on the inside. Mango sticky rice. Mangoes were a bit sour, but otherwise awesome. And the Thai Iced tea could benefit from crushed ice, but still amazing nonetheless.

Ordered the fried tilapia and I have now encountered my favorite dish!! Perfectly crispy and spicy with soft jasmine rice on the side to accompany each bite. Haven’t been here in years and I’m so glad it has been able to withstand the pandemic and still the BEST Thai restaurant in Marin!! Delicious, 5 stars.

Delicious as usual we have been coming here for almost 30 yrs. Avocado salad very refreshing, red curry with scallops and pad see ew flavorful.

Truly some of the tastiest Thai food I’ve ever had. Every dish is rich with flavor. We ordered the red curry with chicken, Thai basil with tofu, and pad Thai with shrimp. Would easily recommend any of them, but the red curry was definitely the stand out! Highly recommend as my top Thai place in Marin. The staff is also incredibly attentive and friendly

This was a wonderful delight. It's very home like feel. The food was GREAT! I found my new spot when I come to Marin.

The pumpkin curry and the coconut ice cream sticky rice were sooooooo good! I would eat an infinite amount.

Very authentic Thai food and decor. Lovely staff. Lots to choose from on their menu. Entrance is a bit obscured. It’s to the right of the large “Royal Thai” sign facing 3rd St. Same entrance is also accessible by going through the courtyard through the iron arch “French Quarters” sign on Irwin St.

Great selection of Thai food. Enjoyed the calamari.

Excellent food.. LOVE the green curry chicken and the drunken noodles are my favorite.

Great atmosphere. Very authentic and reasonable price. Will definitely come back (:

The Bangkok Street Noodles on the lunch menu are delicious! 👏

Best Thai food I've ever had.

We went to Royal Thai on New Year’s Eve. We ordered Chicken Satay, Vietnamese Inspired Savory Crepe (not many Thai restaurants have this but it’s my favorite Thai dish), Tofu Fried Rice and Thai Spicy Sea Food Salad (Yum-Talay). Everything tasted great and authentic. I’m Thai so I know what Thai food is supposed to taste like and Royal Thai food satisfied me. The staff was friendly and attentive. The restaurant vibe was nice. We’ll be back again!

We went there again because they’ve been opened for lunch now. We ate crab fried rice and rice with stir fried chicken with basil. There were very good! The staff was always nice, too.

Absolutely delicious!! Best Thai food in San Rafael. This place is epic!! Great menu, lots of fun things to order. I loved the Talay Susan. A yellow curry with shrimp, scallops, vegetables, and fried soft shell crab. The crab Rangoon is a must. The Thai crepe with pork and shrimp is to die for. The barbeque pork is huge and mouthwatering good. Fried banana with ice cream for dessert is not to be missed. Service was great atmosphere is lovely. If you want great Thai food this is the place to go.

Love this cute little place, they are ALWAYS busy with take out orders and sometimes get backed up. We recently dined in for the first time and had a wonderful!! The food was even more delicious when it's straight from the kitchen even though we only live a short distance when we pick up togo. This is our favorite Thai restaurant and I look forward to eating in the restaurant more in the future.

Nice little Thai place in the French Quarter right under the 101 over pass. Been meaning to go there forever. Good food, reasonable prices, great service and kind of groovey atmosphere in an old house. Didn't give it five stars just because it's not like a 5 star place but certainly nothing wrong with it and would go again if presented the opportunity.

Excellent food! Different from other Thai restaurants that I have eaten at. The coconut curry base is thicker, less sweet. Good ambience! Recommend the veggie red curry! Choose between mild and medium for the best experience !

Been there twice in the last year. The food and service are great! After my meal I met one of the new owners (it's still a family business but his aunt recently retired and moved back to Thailand) and now all I can think about is when I will have a chance to share the experience with my wife.

Try something new! If you can't take a trip to Thailand, the Royal Thai restaurant should hold you until you can!

Royal Thai Restaurant offers an authentic and delicious dining experience with impeccable service and a beautiful ambiance.
