Description

This venerable institution has a loyal following willing to follow it to Stanton, or wherever the cooks may end up, so long as they can feast on what many consider the best Thai food in California. Graze from the options on the first page, on which specials such as wild boar in spicy sauce, raw beef salad and stir-fried watercress make it hard for other restaurants to measure up.

  • 2012 | Best Thai Restaurant

    You've probably knocked around the county trying every pad Thai joint from San Clemente to La Habra and slurped tom kha gai until your spice-lashed tongue couldn't take it anymore. But there really is no getting around it: If you're going to go eat Thai and want it done as close to how they do it in Thailand, you need to go to Thai Nakorn, the place that every Thai restaurant in the county aspires to be. And always will. Go to either the Stanton branch or the Garden Grove one--it... More »

  • 2007 | Best Thai Restaurant

    Without so much as a plane ticket, you can eat Thai food at its most authentic, here in Orange County. The place: Thai Nakorn. Sure, there are plenty of other Thai restaurants to choose from, but none has a fan base so devoted that one patron actually offered to pay for a new restaurant when the first burned to the ground. Now resurrected in Stanton and serving scorching plates laced with Thai bird chiles like no time had passed, Thai Nakorn continues to wow. The best of the lot exists on a... More »

    This is my favorite Thai restaurant. I have been coming here for over 18 years. Granted this location is new but still the same owners and food. The service and decor is okay so don't expect much. People only come here for the food because it is really good and authentic. Since this restaurant is such a trek I usually order a lot so I can have leftovers for the next day or two. It really is that good.
