Bencharong Thai House

My pineapple shrimp fried rice had zero flavor. I was biting bland rice with 3 pieces of pineapple and 5 shrimp and random add ins. The chicken in the spring rolls, when you get some in your bite, has hardly any flavor. Needs a thai grandmother's touch and spicy options.

Hidden gem!! This place is tucked in a dark little corner in Arcata but don’t let that fool you. It packs a PUNCH. Flavors were perfection. Quick and friendly service. We got an array of meals. All delicious!!

Very good variety of great food. I ordered Yellow Curry spicy Prawns and it was delicious. Service is great and all of us enjoyed the meal.

Not sure if because its in a small town or what but its really really pricey with its portion and according to the owner its good for one serving and costs $16-$18. Grilled pork and chicken is $18 for one piece of meat. The tom yum large looks like a medium for $17. In fairness it tastes good just too pricey. For the food we ordered enough for 5 pax we paid $165.

My husband and I visited Arcata, CA at the end of August. Our Airbnb host actually recommended the restaurant! The restaurant was very busy. The server was able to make things work to get us a table (we didn't have a reservation)! She was friendly and communicative. We ordered the Golden Tofu as an appetizer. It was so good! My husband and I split an order of the Padd Khee Mao (Drunken Noodles) the spice as delicious, but we thought the dish was lacking a little flavor. We were overall impressed with the food, service, and atmosphere! Highly recommend!!
