Thai E-san - Corona

I have visited this restaurant on two occasions for lunch. The staff are very attentive to our needs and they have a lot of vegan friendly options to choose from. The quantity and quality of the food is very good. The papaya salad and red curry were especially very tasty and flavorful. They can vary the spiciness to our requirements. I would recommend this hidden gem to everyone. It's very close to the green River road exit on CA-91 (less than 5 minutes).Vegetarian options: While the menu doesn't have a special vegetarian section, they clearly state an option to choose tofu and the staff clarify that all items are cooked in vegetable oil and the base is vegan friendly. So they can customize it to vegan requirements.

Take the Green River exit off the 91 fwy in Corona, and you 'll find Thai E-San coming up fast on your right. The commercial structure contains others eateries; a pizza joint and a bar on the far left end. Thai E-San is on the right end of the lot.The interior of the restaurant is quaint and clean. Wood wall surfaces give the interior a modern appeal.Once seated we found the staff to be especially friendly and helpful. Is this your first time here? asked the owner. We responded yes, and then she smiled and reviewed the menu with us and provided some recommendations. We decided to try the pineapple curry fried rice with pork.I was a bit hesitant to split an order with Joyce as I was hungry and typically finish off a dish. When our order arrived, I was pleased to find a generous beautiful mountain of food. The server was even happy to provide a couple sample shots of a tea mix with chai.The rice dish was fresh off the stove and very delicious! The flavors of the pork and curry took it over the edge in tastiness. We both enjoyed our meal and had enough to box up to take home leftovers.I marked it as a favorite and plan to visit often when in the Corona area.

Food is okay. Portions are small for the pad Thai, which i would rate a 3 out of 5 on taste. Thai fried rice was bland. They give you a lot of rice, but 5 small pieces of pineapple. They put Cabbage in our Tom Yum soup! Never had that in Tom yum soup. prefer to drive to walnut or diamond bar for better Thai food.

Always love coming here to eat Thai food after a round of golf. Real authentic Thai food and staff is very friendly.

Nice staff and good food. Not my favorite but great portions and easy to get to from 91 on way home
