Siam Station Thai Street Food - Thai restaurant in Irvine - 92 Corporate Park H, USA

I stumbled upon Siam Station Thai Food when my Thai food cravings were hitting me hard. It's definitely a hidden gem, tucked away in a corner of the city. I decided to give it a shot, but let's just say my taste buds took an unexpected detour. First up, the Green Curry with Rice. It promised to be a flavorful concoction of green curry paste, coconut milk, bamboo shoots, basil leaves, and fresh chilies. Oh, and we added chicken to spice things up. Tom Yum Soup was hot and sour soup with lemongrass-kaffir lime broth—sounds exciting, right? Well, it was hot, alright. So hot that I could feel beads of sweat forming on my forehead as I took the first sip. The chicken satay grilled chicken served with house peanut sauce and cucumber relish. The chicken itself was decent, but the peanut sauce was a game of hide and seek. I wanted to try something different the deep-fried tofu with sweet sauce. Now, I have to give credit where credit is due. The tofu was actually crisp and fried to perfection. But the sweet sauce... let's just say it was a little too sweet. It's not the place I'd rush to for my Thai food fix. But hey, maybe they were having an off day in the kitchen. Or maybe my taste buds were feeling extra adventurous that day. Either way, it was an experience I won't be forgetting anytime soon. I'll keep searching for that perfect Thai food spot, but until then, Siam Station and I will remain just good friends... with benefits for my taste buds.

My friends wanted to check this out because we were in the area. Haven't had Thai food in awhile so I was down to check it out. Shared the Jungle Papaya (Laos Style) - Fresh papaya, tomato, green bean, Thai eggplant, dried shrimp, fermented fish sauce, and salty crab Tom Yum Fried Rice - flavors of lemon grass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, fresh Thai chilies, fresh lime juice, mushroom, tomatoes, we added prawns Pad Thai - Stir fried thin rice noodles with egg, bean sprout, green onion, homemade sauce topped with roasted peanuts, we added chicken Green Curry with Rice - green curry paste in coconut milk, bamboo shoot, basil leaves, fresh chilies, we added chicken Khao Soi - yellow curry broth with egg noodles served with red onions, lime, and pickles, we added prawns For the drink I got thai tea because you got to try the thai tea with your thai cuisine right? Very milky and sweet. Just a touch too sweet for me but definitely tastes like your ordinary thai iced. Every dish is delicious. You can adjust the spicy level for any of them. The Jungle Papaya is not for the faint of heart. This is strong in smell but also strong in flavor! I haven't seen many places that offer this version with the salty crab. Bomb!!! The tom yum fried rice was so good! Lots of flavor and the prawns were jumbo sized! The pad thai is one of the best flavorings that I have had in awhile. You get the hint of sweet, the citrus, the tang. I loved this dish! For some reason the green curry was almost there in flavor? It needed a touch more spice to it or salt. It had the sweetness to it. But we mixed the khao soi with the green curry and the flavor was absolutely amazing! Felt like we made the broth even better! You get the salty, the sweet, and the spicy? Yes and Yes! The khao soi was different! You get fried egg noodles IN soup?!!?! say whhhhhuuuut?! Looks pretty and tastes just as good. Different textures and lots of flavor. And who can forget... DESSERT?! Mango sticky rice all the way! Smells good and tastes just as good! The vibrancy in colors and the creamy coconut milk with a touch of salt. It was sweet and the mangos were ripe. Perfect way to end the meal. Service was great but the restaurant is tiny. We did outside seating and it was hard with 6 people to one table because we ordered so many dishes. But it gives it a more intimate feel being close with your friends while enjoying your meal. So if you have a lot of people, there will be a wait!

The best Thai street food this far east from Chao Praya. Standard Thai staples are to die for, but their Khao Soi wins the race. Reasonably priced, this little establishment makes the best mango sticky rice in the OC. Wholeheartedly recommended by a biased regular!

We arrived and signed into their paper wait list that they have by the door. We waited maybe 10-15 minutes for a table. Once a table was vacated by the previous guests the staff was very quick to get the next group seated. The restaurant isn’t too big but they have indoor and outdoor seating. We got the Pad Thai, Crab Fried Rice, and Thai Tea. All of it was amazing. I’ll definitely be getting the Thai Tea every time I go and the Crab Fried Rice is going to be a regular go to. The staff was all super nice and friendly and everyone was hustling to get people seated and to get people their food. They also had a decent amount of take out orders they were processing while we were seated for our meal. Despite how busy they were, our food came out quickly. There is also plenty of parking for the restaurant. We will definitely be coming back here.

This is the best Thai food I’ve ever had. I had the Pad See Ew, Chicken wings, and yellow curry, and everything was incredible. I’m visiting from Texas and wish I could come here all of the time.

Great food!! Finally found some authentic good Thai food in Irvine. The service was good, the food came out hot and delicious. Small restaurant but they have outdoor seating as well. Price is also good and the portions are large. One dish was good for two meals.

Food was adequate enough but nothing to write home about. Wish the chicken satay was softer and more flavorful and they charge a lot for only a small amount of chicken. Pad see ew was okay, not much flavor. Eggplant was decent. Fried rice was kind of plain. The soup dish was just not that good at all, sour taste in the broth and the meatballs tasted very gamey. Zesty wings were decent.

As a Thai, I personally think Siam Station has the best Thai food, in Irvine. My favorite is Pad Prik Khing, also Crab Fried rice (it looks plain and simple but tasty). Service is good, food serve fast, clean. Usually pretty packed and you may have to wait for table during lunch/dinner time.
