Born from a Love of Thai Food & Fun

At Must Be Thai, our journey began with a question: what does it take for Thai food to truly must be Thai? From our modern kitchen on Stevens Creek Boulevard, we answer this with bold, home-style cooking rooted in tradition—but crave-worthy and fresh. Our menu showcases authentic flavors from Northern to Southern Thailand—Pad See You, Green Curry, Hat Yai Fried Chicken—prepared with a modern twist. It’s not just food, it’s a celebration of Thai heritage, creativity, and passion in every bite.

A Vibe
That’s More Than a Meal

From our vibrant Instagram feed—“True home-style Thai food with a modern vibe”  to the inviting buzz of our dining room near Santana Row, Must Be Thai is designed for moments that matter. We’re where friend dates, family dinners, takeout nights, and work lunches come together in San Jose. Pair our flavorful dishes with thoughtfully curated wines, sake, and beers—or indulge in happy hour specials that keep the good times rolling.

Driven by curiosity and built on purpose, this is where bold thinking meets thoughtful execution. Let’s create something meaningful together.
