About This Place

Located in the heart of Concord, CA, Mai Thai 2 offers an authentic taste of Thailand in a warm, inviting neighborhood setting. This charming Thai restaurant is beloved by locals for its vibrant flavors, generous portions, and cozy atmosphere that feels like a home away from home.

The menu is a delightful showcase of classic Thai dishes crafted with fresh ingredients and bold seasonings. Signature favorites include the fragrant Green Curry and the comforting Yellow Curry, each simmered to perfection with rich coconut milk and aromatic herbs. Seafood lovers will relish the Seafood Soup with its delicate balance of spice and umami, as well as the sensational Dancing Prawns—skewered prawns stuffed with crab meat and ground chicken in a tangy lemon sauce that bursts with flavor.

For those seeking a lighter or refreshing option, the Som Tum Salad is a must-try: shredded green papaya tossed with tomatoes, garlic, green beans, and peanuts, with customizable spiciness levels from mild to Thai hot. The Beef Salad, mingling grilled beef with fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, mint, and a robust Thai dressing, offers a fresh and zesty contrast.

Lunch specials shine with crowd-pleasers like the tangy, savory Pad Thai and the satisfying SeeEw—pan-fried rice noodles with soy sauce, broccoli, and egg, both customizable with chicken, shrimp, beef, or an array of seafood. Every dish is thoughtfully prepared with authentic Thai balance: salty, sweet, spicy, and sour harmoniously intertwined.

The Thai iced tea and coffee complement the meal perfectly, providing a sweet, creamy finish to a rich culinary journey.

    My wife and I love this place. This is our go to for lunch. I always get the BBQ Beef with Rice or the BBQ Chicken with rice. Everything here is delicious. I’ve tried the Chicken Pad Thai, Yellow Curry and Rice, both BBQ plates and next I want to try the seared Duck. We come here at least twice a month for lunch. It’s a cozy little place and very welcoming. The hosts are always friendly and smiling. The food is delicious and the best Thai food I’ve ever had. I make the drive from Antioch every time because this place is a Home Run every time!

    OMFG... This place is by far my favorite Thai place! Beats any place in SF and NYC! Portions are sharable or enough for lunch the next day, even the Thai iced tea is big enough for two. The pineapple curry was not too spicy, tons of chicken and the flavor of the soup was perfect. The only complaint was the bench is very uncomfortable to sit on AND the bathroom is quite dirty compared to the rest of the restaurant. More then happy to return after the bathroom gets a new coat of paint or everything washed and update the comment.

    Great neighborhood Thai food restaurant. First time here. It was pretty early in the evening and it was full. Good for family/friends. Nice vibe. Had chicken pad thai, shrimp spring rolls and Thai tea. Everything was delicious. Looking forward to returning.

    Excellent food and service. Husband loved the pad Thai; I enjoyed the drunk noodle the first time we went. More recently, husband tried yellow curry with beef and garlic rice, and I had pad see ew with beef. Both were excellent! -- We went back for Valentine's Day. They gave me a gorgeous red rose! Husband tried red curry with mixed seafood. He said the red is more flavorful and spicier than the yellow he had last time. I got drunken noodle with beef. We both ordered Thai iced tea for the first time. It was really good, but a little strong. We took the rest to go and diluted it with more tea at home. Husband's already planning on going back when we celebrate his birthday in a few weeks. -- Husband chose Mai Thai 2 for birthday dinner: *I loved Thai iced coffee *Husband loves Thai iced tea *Oldest daughter loved BBQ beef *Kids got sticky rice. I liked it, but they weren't thrilled. It came in cute little baskets.

    Very nice neighborhood restaurant...one that was surprisingly busy on a Wednesday afternoon. We had a short wait, but the weather was great, so we sat outdoors and enjoyed the sunshine. We ordered some staples, like fried rice and pumpkin curry, a couple of dishes I had not heard of before (Nua Ob, a stewed beef) and Dancing Prawns skewers (prawns stuffed with crab) and a spicy Catfish. Everything was delicious, except for the dancing prawn. That was dry and inedible. I took one bit and wasted my portion. Overall, we were quite happy.
