Noodles, rice plates and other classic Thai-Vietnamese eats served in warm, casual surrounds.

Nice, relaxing atmosphere with lofi music. Delicious food, although I would love some mint in the spring rolls. I ordered the tofu pad thai ($17) and tofu spring rolls ($7.50).
This place is great for vegans and vegetarians.
Included updated menu prices as of Nov 2025.
(The sales tax is almost 11%. I’m not from here and was surprised )

This is the best Thai restaurant in the Bay Area. We particularly love the red curry beef and pad krao pao. The rice is delicious, I especially love the brown rice, cooked to perfection and nutty in flavor. I also enjoy their cucumber salad. This has been our go to Thai restaurant for over decade. Can’t recommend them enough. Since the pandemic we mostly get takeout, and they are also ready with our order when we arrive at pickup time. Give them a try!

The panang curry is so good! I was a lil weary when I saw that it’s white meat but they marinated it correctly and it’s so tender. The rice was so good with the sauce. I needed another bowl.
Chicken satay was great also. Pho is just ok though.
Surprisingly nice looking inside.

My parents love this place, I on the other hand have had mixed experiences. The food is good, let’s start there, that the one thing I gotta be clear about, it consistently good. The service and upkeep of the place, not so much. For example, there were at least 5 instances where we asked for a refill, an additional plate, or something of the sort, and we always had to remind them even though the place only had 3 tables with people at the time. Also, the high chairs are oily and dirty. They seem to not clean them after every use or at least at the end of the day. So to recap, food is good, service needs work.

Love this place. Big restaurant good for dinner or a low-key date night. The food is spicy and can be adjusted to the temp you like. I love the pad key mai noodles , crab or pineapple fried rice, and really anything you choose will be great. The veggies egg roll were so good too. I add photos soon. I ate this so fast

Great food people are friendly. However, some food, like some appetizers are getting less and more pricey. Parking ️ is ridiculous. Absolutely no parking available in the back during busy hours. You can’t really park in the Burger King area. Restaurant is nice whenever there’s no party, because absolutely no parking and atmosphere of the restaurant is very noisy and loud.

Red Chili is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the East Bay! Their food is very flavorful, fresh, and authentic to my taste buds. I’ve tried a lot of items on the menu, and whether I’ve dined in or had takeout, this place never disappoints!
My go-to’s are the Roti Canai (an absolute must!) for the appetizer, Panag Curry with chicken, pineapple fried price, and lemon grass beef. There are plenty of other delicious options, so try them at your leisure!
As for the pho and some of the other Vietnamese dishes, it’s good, but not my favorite. In other words, if you’re craving pho and your squad is already here, go for it. It’s consistent and delicious enough, but I come here for the Thai food specifically. Overall, you’ll get your South East Asian cravings completely satisfied one way or another.
They have a large indoor dining area which I’ve never seen full but moderate filled. The service is fine, prices are fair considering it’s 2020’s. Have at it!

One of my favorite Thai-Vietnamese restaurant in Bay Area. This is a hidden gem in Hayward on mission Blvd.
Great food, amazing staff and lots of options for vegetarian and non vegetarians.
They have small parking in from but they do have extra parking space in back.
My favorite is Tom Yong soup , yellow curry , red curry, green curry, pineapple fried rices . Their portion size is great and you will never be disappointed being vegetarians one has large number of options and you will be delighted.
Only thing-they have to work on is ventilations from all cooking and dining room.

We have enjoyed Red Chili for years. Haven’t eaten here in a while and after ordering their Pad Thai we realized they add small dehydrated shrimp to it. We have eaten the same dish here and other places. Have never seeing this before.
