Reviews for Siam Station Thai Street Food in Irvine, CA
The only Thai place I visit in Irvine whether ordering for home or going out for lunch during the work week. Recently on a work... lunch trip, I had myself the garlic pepper with filet beef rice dish and the shrimp rolls. The garlic pepper rice dish I've hadwith beef or chicken many times before and it's always a winner for me. I like to cake my rice with hot sauce and go to town inthe beef, mixing in the sauces. The shrimp rolls were a new spur of the moment thing and glad I tried them. A long piece ofshrimp in a deep fried roll tasted great. Much more unique than the usual spring rolls or egg rolls, the shrimp filled roll wasgood! All the food was quite filling for 1 person, I felt like I was going to explode. Have tried the crab fries rice manytimes, it's the prime winner at this joint. Have repeated many times and will repeat again. Read more
Come in on a Saturday night for dinner and they were packed but got seated quickly. The food also came out insanely quick. We... got the Pad See Ew and Pad Kee Mow. To be honest, both were very similar, it would have tasted the same if the PKM didn't havebasil. The highlight was definitely the Mango sticky Rice - they had blue rice, ripe mangos, and warm coconut milk. Read more
I just had the best Thai food since Thailand; I'm so serious! I really loved the quality and quantity of the food; Siam Station... Thai Street is a true hidden jewel in the OC. The size of the shrimp used in the "Spicy Basil Fried Rice" was medium to largesize (and that's very rare to see). The food was reasonably priced (especially seeing that fuel prices and inflation are throughthe roof), which was an awesome value for the taste. Patronizing this place was an absolute delight!

We went here after a fellow co worker recommended us to try as I used to like Thai food a lot and I wasnt disappointed. Khao... soi noodle soup and fried rice were fantastic and the mango sticky rice is the highlight of our lunch. Recommend if you arelooking for Thai food around Irvine. Read more
I had the drunken noodle and the mango sticky rice. I chose crispy pork with the noodle but it turned to be over cooked. The... mango sticky rice was good but the rice was a bit hard. I expected more based on the good reviews! Read more
Update 10/18/2021: We went there a 2nd time and ordered the Panang Curry, Pad Thai Noodles and Spicy Basil Fried Rice. We... actually ordered the tofu Spicy Basil Fried Rice but we got beef. Food is good. But we had to wait a bit longer to pay ourbill because they were very busy taking pick up / delivery orders. We had a pleasant lunch dining experience at this place. The restaurant is small but very neat and clean. The dishes are amazing, full of flavor. We ordered Pad See Ew, Tomyum NoodleSoup and Panang Curry with Rice. They did a special birthday Mango ???? sticky rice for our party's birthday ???? celebration. Read more
Mango sticky rice was the winner for me. Very sticky, mangowey, and sweet. Chicken satay was good average satay. Yellow chicken... curry was very watery, not thick like I normally like it. Eggplant with basil (with tofu) was pretty good, but the eggplantscould have been cooked a tad bit longer so that they would be softer. Nice and clean. Reasonable prices. Read more
We went to Siam Station during the peak time on a Monday night to get some dinner. You can tell that this place is really... popular as it was almost full, but we were able to get a seat right away. I ordered the Pad Ke Mow for my meal and the shrimpegg rolls for an appetizer. The shrimp egg rolls are simple shrimp that is cut and elongated to their full length, wrapped in aVietnamese egg roll wrapper and deep fried. Served with a little sweet chili sauce, they are delicious and fresh. However,there is not a lot of flavor to this dish. I wish I had gotten the regular egg rolls. Siam Station does not cook its food fordifferent levels of spiciness. Instead, they will bring you a bowl with lots of different ways to spice up your dish to yourown personal heat level. This is nice to have this option, but it made the dish taste rather bland for what I was used to forPad Ke Mow. I eventually got the spices up to my level of liking but it took some experimenting. We ate out on the patio andhad a nice dinner. The waitress was helpful and efficient. I am not sure this would be my go-to location for Thai food but wehad a good quality meal at a good price.
