What's not to love about Mai Thai? This place has a lovely ambiance, friendly staff and most important tasty food. I have a few favorite dishes that never disappoint: yum woon sen, red curry with duck, crying tiger, bbq chicken, bbq ribs and pad thai. If you're not full after trying all these dishes, their mango sticky rice is excellent too. If you're looking for a place to fill your belly with yummy food and not empty your wallet, I highly recommend this place.

I have visited several Thai restaurants and this is easily the best one. The food is excellent, and I especially liked their variety of curries. The service is also splendid, the staff are very attentive and very friendly. This one is is worth a try!

Mai Thai restaurant in Fountain Valley is a great place to go for lunch or dinner. For the amount of food you get, the price is very reasonable. The food is flavorful and you get to pick your spicy level (1-10) for any dish you order. I had the lunch special, red curry with beef and I just can't recommend it enough. I ordered it hot & spicy, about #7 and definitely had a big kick to it. The creaminess of the coconut milk in the sauce provided the perfect compliment to the spice. With their lunch specials you get a large scoop of rice, soup of the day, salad, and one of their awesome wonton puffs (these appetizers are definitely recommended). A couple of other favorites that I like to order include Pineapple Fried Rice, Vegetable Delight, Grilled Salmon, Spicy Lemon Pork, and Tom Yum soup. I've tried these dishes and more and have always been satisfied. All I know is the little old lady in the kitchen can cook like nobody's business.
The service is always friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant with traditional Thai decor.

This place is located in the rite aid plaza. They have a really great atmopshere. The place is decorated and looks very authentic. I ordered the pad thai here which is one of my favorite dishes. It didn't taste bad but was really different from any other pad thai dishes that i have had before.
