Golden Bowl

First meal of 2026 and it was delicious! We got the appetizer combo, red curry and a boat noodle. The broth in the boat noodle was so tasty. The owner was our waitress and she was as sweet as can be.

Food was delicious. Shrimp pho was amazing and had lots of shrimp. My favorite where the crab rangoons. Great service.

Staff is so nice, friendly and considerate. A great date spot for friends and couples. Great portions of food too

Amazing food and excellent service! Great vibe and chill place for lunch or dinner! Garlic shrimp is fantastic!

The food is really good and the staff are quick and efficient. I didn’t have to wait for my food for long either. Many Thai cuisines close around 3 pm in Temecula Pkwy except this one and it makes it convenient when you really want Thai food. I appreciate the quality, service, and the cleanliness of the restaurant. If you’re in the area stop by and support!

Happy New Year! My wife and I have been on a Pho kick lately and we made sure to visit our favorite local Pho place Golden Bowl the first day of the year. Although we ordered our meals to go to enjoy at home and relax, Golden Bowl always has a friendly team and Thea service is very fast. The quality and flavors are unmatched! I ordered the chicken pho a shrimp spring rolls. If you’re looking for some delicious soup during the chilly weather, visit Golden Bowl! A+

Amazing food service and incredibly friendly staff! They play very calming music that really helps you relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The dishes are excellent—especially the tom yum soup and the Thai tea, which I absolutely love. Highly recommend!

When I visit Temecula, it’s always a plus to eat at golden bowl. Irene is a dedicated and passionate server. Accommodating and friendly, offered lots of suggestions and options for the people that weren’t exactly sure what to order or new to pho. Food comes out hot and delicious. Glad I know about this place.

Golden Bowl is a hidden gem in Temecula. The service is excellent and the food is cooked to perfection. If you want to be treated respectfully and looking for a healthy tasty option, go here. I ordered fried rice, beef pho and spring rolls. Everything was made fresh and I will definitely be back. It is a little hard to find and is located behind the pharmacy in the court.

Just had great meal at Golden Bowl Thai. The red curry and cashew nut chicken were delicious! They have been playing the same song over and over for the past half hour, but that's the only thing I would ding! The waitstaff saw my mom and I shivering and asked if we'd like them to shut the door to the patio 😊 great spot!

I usually order pad kra pao every time I go to a Thai restaurant, so when this place was recommended to me by someone I met at the airport, I had to try it. I ordered the panang curry and the pork pad kra pao—what they call spicy basil here. Although they were served differently, the flavor was the same, and both dishes I ordered to go were absolutely delicious!

I have come to appreciate Pho. The broth, which cooks all-day is extremely complex, flavored by bones, herbs, spices and vegetables which done correctly is very delicious. I love the textural contrast of silky rice noodles and tender meats as well as the ability to customize with sprouts, basil, cilantro and various sauces. We came to Golden Bowl to experience their pho. The menu is a hodgepodge of Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese food options. We also like to compare spring rolls. Today we both order the shrimp spring rolls to share and each of us ordered a bowl of the Pho Ga. The spring rolls resembled a joint rolled by Cheech & Chong and was accompanied by a rich peanut sauce and another sweet sauce. They were fresh, big and I enjoyed the flavor but my wife thought the lettuce was overpowering the rest of the roll. If we wanted a damn salad we would have ordered one. The pho was pretty awesome. The broth was delicious and there were oodles of noodles to be found and also a fair amount of chicken. Price for pho was 13.99 and the 4 spring rolls were 9.99. Good price for the area. Service was pleasant and paced well. We will return to Golden Bowl but next time to try their Thai food. It looks good.

Very disappointed with this restaurant. They showed no consideration for children — no water was offered, and they didn’t even bother to provide child-friendly, unbreakable utensils. The server kept a cold face the entire time, as if annoyed because we ordered only a few dishes. The rice tasted old and stale, and to make it worse, we ordered pork but were served chicken instead. Overall, it was an unpleasant experience. We will never be coming back.

I’d avoid places that can’t make up their mind about what their specialty is, like this one. Thai rest with a whole lot of pho on the menu. LOL. Service is just as bad, especially that old lady with a pound of eyeliners on and two pounds of attitude. They were rarely busy, but the wait time was always long. I’d skip this place and go to Thailand ToGo for Thai food, or Boiling Pho for pho, both just down the street on Temecula Pkwy on opposite ends.

I ordered from Door Dash the sticky rice. On picture it shows mango sticky rice and it describes that it comes as mango sticky rice. I received only white rice. I won’t be ordering from this place again.

The food is good, but keep an eye on the bill; the price on the menu is one thing, and the bill is another.
