If you're wanting spice, this is the place to go. Definitely worth the 30 minute drive for me. Everything I had was delicious but the green Thai tea is my favorite.

Moom 48 Thai in Pasadena absolutely delivers on flavor. I ordered the Panang Curry, and it was incredible — rich, creamy, and full of depth. The balance between the coconut milk sweetness, the subtle spice, and that aromatic Thai basil was spot on. It had just the right amount of heat to wake up your palate without overpowering the dish.
The texture of the curry was silky and perfectly clung to the rice, making every bite warm and satisfying. You can tell the ingredients are fresh — the vegetables still had a nice crispness, and the sauce tasted homemade, not overly salty or heavy.
The restaurant itself has a calm, welcoming atmosphere, perfect for both a casual lunch or a relaxed dinner. The staff were friendly and attentive without hovering, which made the whole experience even better.
In short: Moom 48 Thai captures that perfect mix of comfort and authenticity. If you’re craving curry that hits every note — spicy, creamy, aromatic, and satisfying — the Panang is the move.

Me and my wife had already been in the area days prior to today and saw the restaurant from the outside. We promised to come back . Today we did just that and after waiting a while to be seated a man appears and seats us in a corner . It had been enough time for us to figure out what we wanted . A white gentleman walks in and is immediately seated , order is taken and we hadn’t even gotten water , silverware, a greeting yet. We are black Americans and felt overlooked and that made us get up and leave because I’m not spending my dollars just to
Be disrespected . That’s it that’s all! Do better!

The employees here look like they love working here and are very kind to everyone. Definitely feels like you’re dining in someone’s house by the delicious flavors and welcoming feel of the establishment. This is not a hole in the wall time of place but it’s typically pretty empty. I have tried over four different menu items including the Tom Yum Rice with shrimp, Wonton soup, Crispy Deep Fried Pork Belly with Sweet Peppers (Pad Kra Pao - hopefully I spelled that right), and Pad See Ew to name a some. I LOOVVVEEEE all of their food so far. If I remember the waitress name who typically helps my guests and myself I will come back and edit. Don’t miss out on this amazing place that I can’t compliment enough 💐

Absolutely obsessed with this Thai spot!
We stumbled upon it a while back and have been coming back ever since—countless times, and for good reason. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. Everything I’ve tried on the menu has been a hit. The servers are kind, attentive just enough, and let you enjoy your meal without hovering—which I really appreciate.
As long as their doors are open, I’ll keep coming back. A true gem!

The service was super fast and efficient, making a seamless dining experience. The food was both filling and delicious, we ordered Pad Thai with prawns, green beans with garlic and butter (you need to order rice separately for that, and gyozas as appetizers. It all came out quite fast and was delicious.
The prices are reasonable, especially considering the generous portion sizes. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is quite chilled and cozy.
Located in a vibrant area filled with shops and restaurants, finding parking can be a bit limited on the streets nearby. However, there are a few not expensive parking structure close by.
Love the ambiance! Their Thai green tea and spicy eggplant are AMAZING!!
Maybe it was an off day but I was unimpressed with the food for the price. We tried the crispy pork and the duck curry. Service was great, our waitress was attentive and friendly. Food came fast, portions were sizable. The ambiance was nice, cute little date place. The rice was cooked okay, the food was spiced okay. It was all decent. I feel like Pearl Thai nearby had better curry at a similar price but I would probably try again.
Excellent, went here on a whim after America's got talent and what an absolute treat.
Fantastic service and excellent food quality
Food's awesome and authentically good. Loads of veg options and you can choose anything and keep the meat and seafood out too. The chilly here is nippy so be careful when even ordering a medium option. I made the mistake but the folks here were kind enough to give me some peanut sauce to call things down. Hot tea for comfort!
