Thai Noodle Express

Seemed like a family run business. It was very clean, the service was great, and the food knocked my socks off. I got the drunken noodles and asked for it ‘Thai spicy’ and they did it just right. The guy that took our order had a great personality and had a sense of humor. Had I been out there another night, I would have made it back to TNE without doubt.

I have come here over a dozen times. Everything is cooked fresh to order. Tell them if you want it different than described on the menu. The Massaman Curry is excellent. Wait times are reasonable, 10 to 15 minutes at most. Prices are reasonable, about 20% more than a burger place. Authentic flavors, think twice when asking for extra spicy. Great place if you are in the neighborhood.

This is a real find in downtown Placerville. I’ve driven by it many times but never noticed it. The restaurant is small with minimal ambiance but the food is excellent. Fresh and delicious. It can be a spicy(and I like it spicy), but I would suggest going medium spicy your first time so it isn’t too hot for you to enjoy. The people couldn’t be nicer. If you like Thai food, this is the place for you. They also have great soups, ramen and other options.

I don’t know how this place got so many good reviews. We waited for over an hour to get our food. Orders were forgotten and we had to remind them of several dishes we were missing. Food came out so random (main dish followed by appetizers followed by dessert, followed by more main dishes, followed by more appetizers, followed finally by boba tea that was not good at all) I felt bad for the three teenagers trying to manage our big group and all of our orders. The pad Thai and ramen dishes were very bland. I will say though, not everything was bad…the yellow curry and pumpkin curry were delicious!
