Must be Thai

Must be Thai is a casual Thai restaurant on Stevens Creek Blvd in San Jose, CA, built around one guiding idea: every dish must be right. The menu draws from Thailand's diverse regional traditions, featuring wok-fired noodles, deeply spiced curries, and street-style plates that balance bold flavors with fresh ingredients. Guests rave about the Tom Yum soup, Pad See Ew, and the Bangkok-style pork knuckle known as the Hoag ME. A curated selection of wine, sake, and beer rounds out the experience with thoughtful food pairings. The relaxed, welcoming atmosphere suits everything from family dinners to date nights and group celebrations.
