“I shall Thai my best, to find something good for lunch

Occupying the former location of Hanako, we've dined at the second previous tenant of this address, prior to Hanako. I've been meaning to come by Pudtarn Thai Cuisine because I'm a huge fan of Thai food, and Lunch Specials are an affordable option. This day seemed just the moment to try another local Thai restaurant for takeout.

Lunch Special Pad Thai-
Choice of protein (beef + $1, shrimp + $2), with rice, salad & egg roll. Oh, how have I missed pad Thai. Pudtarn's version hit the spot for my Thai food fix. Had the perfect amount of sour to sweet. Portions were generous, too.

Chicken satay-
Five tender, succulent sticks of chicken, served with creamy peanut sauce. Great accompaniment to the noodles, the pieces of chicken were delicious, especially when smothered in the sauce.

Service was good. A good amount of seating inside, the wait for takeout wasn't too long, since I was the first customer of the day. Parking can be somewhat difficult to come by, as some spaces are designated for the business in front of them. Hard to find on it's own, Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is located west of the car wash on the corner of Bloomfield & Centralia.

Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is a solid Thai eatery, and I'm definitely looking forward to visiting, again, in the near future. Their lunch specials are affordable, and provide an ample amount of food. Pudtarn Thai Cuisine has earned their spot in my food rotation list.“

“Tonkotsu ramen was good! The broth was tasty and the chashu wasn’t over cooked. The fried calamari was also good. Will order again!“

“Having forgotten to request hot sauce for my meal, I revisited the cashier to make the request, but found the employee busy on TikTok. She handed me two packets of hot sauce, but when I asked for an additional one, she was too preoccupied with her phone to accommodate my request.“

“very tasty chicken. great customer service. highly recommend. prices good as well.“

“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"“

“number one place to eat.“

“The food here is amazing. Honestly, they have some of the best broth I've ever tasted. The food is cooked to order and doesn't disappoint. The spicy beef noodles, pork dumplings, and crispy cucumbers are top tier (skip the Broccoli In Zanthoxylum Sauce...big bowl of mid). I have no complaints. Definitely recommend!!“

“Genuine Japanese Ramen with rich Miso taste. No other ramen shops serve this taste and only one in SoCal. It’s worth to spend your time to go to this place if you are Ramen Lover! Now they start serving Shio-Ramen (Clear Salt base soup) with Truffle oil flavor. This one is very good, too!“

“The food is really good and cheap, plus its a really good portion of it. The atmosphere is pretty welcoming and feels good to be there. The most remarkable thing its the service, it is a really nice and good service in every way, best service I've had so far and will definitely go back.“

“The lunch special caught my eye as I was walking by. Walked in was greeted so warmly. Kiki attended me and she was great and provided the best hospitality. It’s family owned, so I’m glad I was able to help support their business!!!“

“I really like the service that I got there they really care about their customers and I do really appreciate that a hole lot . Thank you for awesome service and great food .“

“Pad See Ew is delicious! 🤤 their Thai tea is great too!!!“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“Food is great! I love eating here“

“Tried this place for their lunch special the other day with a friend and we were blown away at how good it was. Standard dishes like Pad See Ew and Pad Thai were next level compared to other Thai places in taste and freshness. So if the easy dishes are that good - rest of the food must be incredible. Will definitely be coming here frequently!“

“amazing food and service! My husband and I used to live nearby and always came when it was Tai Silk. We now live in San Pedro but we'll be back for sure.“

“Lovely flavorful hearty Pho, nice big spring rolls, and perfect shaking beef. Makes me disappointed that at the end of my trip, I'll have to go home to my local Pho place, that sadly was sold and now sells broth with no heartiness, that tastes like seasoned water.“

“The Best Thai Food in Long Beach 🏖 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I am so surprised that they are willing to send out samples for potential customers. Also, I would like to give a shot-out to the friendly staff Takao there. He is very patient and professional on answering any questions about their products. It will definitely earn our future business :)“

“I ordered crispy pata the other day and when I got home the crispy pata was over fried that even the bone is burned. Very overcooked so it is very disappointing!“

“Absolutely fantastic! Love the atmosphere! Courteous and professional staff! Awesome menu selections! Yummy Cambodian cuisine! I wish we have a restaurant like this in Lake Forest👍“

“Tang was exactly what we were craving after a night out. The portions were generous, and the side dishes complemented the meal well. Since the soups already include rice noodles, I skipped out on the extra rice.

We ordered the soondae guk and the galbi tang. The galbi was rich and flavorful. The highlight of the meal was the soondae (blood sausage). The texture was different, filled with a mixture of pork blood and noodles.

Overall, it was a great dining experience and a perfect choice for a morning comfort meal. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“I absolutely love the vegetarian pho here! It’s packed with a wonderful variety of fresh vegetables and mushrooms, making it both flavorful and satisfying. The Pad Thai is also delicious and can be incredible when it’s on point, though I’ve noticed some occasional inconsistencies. That said, the flavors are consistently bold, fresh, and far superior to many other places I’ve tried.

The Pad See Ew was another standout. It’s perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and absolutely delicious. Overall, I’m a huge fan and a frequent customer. The food keeps me coming back, and I highly recommend giving this place a try!“

“We come here every week. Today a server went outside and publicly accused me in front of my family and guests of not paying. This was absolutely embarrassing and offered a terrible apology for the incident as we did pay already. Great food but today was a terrible experience.“

“All the food is cooked fresh. The veggie soup had a light, classic flavor that I know and love. The family style bean curd/tofu had a nice flavor and texture. Rice is included and there is chili sauce and chili oil to spice up your food. The service was good, the lady there is so nice and stays busy.“

“I love everything about Chowking . From Siopao, mami, wanton soup and desserts and drinks. Halo halo, buchi buchi, taho, and so much more. Feels like you’re in pinas.👍🥰“

“Consistent food quality and portions. Clean and the tables have enough space to order multiple things (unlike Yard House). I live near here so I walk and for that reason I know the parking situation is not the restaurants fault. It's very difficult to find parking so I recommend carpooling. The broths have plenty of flavor, the meat is not thin. I recommend for parties up to 4 since the restaurant usually has people dining in. Overall I hope this restaurant survives the economy since it's worth wanting a restaurant experience.“

“The food is fabulous every time I try to call in an order. Nobody wants to pick up when I go to pick up the order. They don't recognize females as much as they recognize. Men.
For example, I'm standing there 15 minutes. Waiting for the lady to ask me what I'm there for and she didn't, so I sat down to wait. A man came in and she instantly said, are you here for pick up or to eat?“

“Amazing authentic Ramen. Service and food was excellent. My new favorite in Lombard!“

“I absolutely love, love, loooooove this family friendly jewel. Starting with the food first ?, there is an abundance of everything even if it's a plate order for one person. The broth is clean, the ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the flavors do NOT stop with mmmmmm?. Your meal experience, will result in you leaving with a happy and full belly. I've even seen some family that brought children, with excitement for the food here and kids can be picky. The service is quick, communication is clear, and the restaurant team is friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The staff, all work really hard together, to keep their customers consistently happy. They go above and beyond here, to make sure your experience is a full and comfortably wholesome one. The atmosphere is unforgettably clean like their pho broth?, there is more than enough space to keep to yourself or enjoy your company in your own bubble together with your meals. They also have outside seating, for those who prefer fresh air to themselves. I would NOT sleep on this place, if I were you. Plenty of parking, and walking distance to public transportation for those who are not personally mobile. I highly recommend this place, to anyone looking for tasty and clean pho options.“

“Awesome place to hang out with friends and family draft beer and food are good combination 😋“

“Food was so yummy! Had the chicken pho and edamame.“

“This has been my go to spot for Pho for over tens years now!

The broth is rich in flavor, not oily and so delicious! Obviously simmered for many hours with care.

Regardless of the bowl you choose, you will be pleasantly surprised with the quantity of meat, the quality, and the service.

All the spring rolls are delicious although my favorite is the sausage.

All in all. This is the place. It is called Pho Tasty for a reason. Try it and see. You will not leave disappointed.“

“Legit Chuncheon-style Dakgalbi.

When I go to Korea, I love eating dakgalbi. Specifically, Chuncheon-style, where the meat is cooked in a spicy sauce with vegetables and other items that you can often choose (e.g. rice cakes, ramen, udon noodles, cheese, etc). I've tried to find the best dakgalbi in Seoul, and I feel like I've only scratched the surface.

In the US, I've only had dakgalbi a few times, and before Mhat, I'd been consistently underwhelmed. But Mhat has changed what I think dakgalbi can be in the US. Mhat serves up a version that is excellent, much like the better spots that I've found in Seoul. I didn't get a cheese version, but then again, I'm not really into the Korean trend of putting cheese on everything, so things like dakgalbi and galbi jjim usually go without cheese.

In short, my favorite dakgalbi in the US so far.“

“nice and fresh and clean 👌#1 service good customer service!“

“Food: Grabbed a modest amount of fixings (i.e., veggies, seafood, meats, etc.) for my soup, which totaled out to be ~$13. Not too shabby. Opted for the beef bone broth; however, there was a taste/smell to it, reminiscent of lamb (I only got beef), which was unexpected and a bit off-putting for me.

Service: Decent. While it isn't a standard sit-down restaurant, be prepared to be charged a gratuity for a party of six or more.

Ambiance: Casual. Pretty spacious and clean, including the ingredient + sauce bar.

Parking: Ample parking, but located in a relatively busy/ high-traffic plaza, so parking could take a minute, during peak hours.“

“In town for a conference and stopped in for some pho. Absolutely delicious and a friendly staff. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing lunch specials and received amazing service from Chris“

“Broth is great Staff is very helpful & Vibe is great 8.5“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“The food was delicious! My friend recommended it and we decided to eat there for lunch. Our refreshments were served in a cute mason jar. We shared chicken egg rolls for an appetizer. My friend ordered tom yum soup with shrimp and I got Thai Boat Noodle. I am definitely going to eat there again and bring my family.“

“Beautiful restaurant. Family owned. Owner pours his heart into the dining experience. Great for dates, family event or special occasions.“

“100/10 would recommend!’ Amazing food and selection as well!“

“Was working nearby looking for dinner to go. Asked if they can accommodate for gluten free, certain menu items yes(confirmed with an older woman, she was super sweet).Tom Yum Soup, Pad Thai, Pad Woon Sen, and one of the salads. AMAZING! Best Thai I've had in a decade, especially for my allergy. I will be back and will continue to order from here“

“Great food cooked with love, like you're at Grandma's house, great prices and super friendly service ❤️ I had the drunken noodle which was reality flavorful, nice and spicy and they give you a great chili oil that gave a nice smoky finish, my girlfriend got the orange chicken lunch special with vegetable soup and it was delicious, portions are generous, food came out fast, and no wait to be seated 👍 lovely restaurant with cozy wood panelled walls and somehow this is a rarity but the chairs are actually comfortable. The mango sticky rice was a great, fresh dessert that didn't feel too unhealthy or sugary“

“We accidentally found this restaurant while on a trip in Long Beach as I was craving Thai food. We had the Baked Mussels, Tiger Wings, and Shrimp Fried Rice—all of which were fresh, flavorful, and authentic. We ended the meal with the Tiramisu and it was absolutely delicious! I would definitely come back.“

“I always get the grilled beef cause no one has "GRILLED" beef pho that I've seen. it is really good. Only thing different this time is the meat was a tougher than it has been before. Hopefully, it is only this time cause it is usually tender.“
