20 Best Thai Restaurants in Pasadena

“I love this spot. Every friend I’ve brought here, we all enjoyed it! They enjoyed it so much they also come with their family and other friends. It’s a cozy and charming restaurant located at the corner end of the plaza. I highly recommend it. The staff is also very friendly and will remember you.“

“Delicious and nice place.“

“Love this place! Highly recommended :)“

“This is my OG favorite Thai spot starting way back in 2007 when I moved to Pasadena! I recently went back to give it another try and it's as good as I remember, prices are now considered reasonable and even good especially the lunch specials, and everything still tastes fresh and high quality. Even some of the servers are still some of the original servers from 2007! They said they love working there. The inside is unique, used to be a wall of empty frames but they made it a bit more artsy but definitely eclectic! They also have if you dishes that are not straight tie but Singaporean or Malaysian. A lunch special for two and both of us getting one iced coffee and one Thai tea came out to a whopping ;-) $40. I think that's super reasonable for high quality Thai food and the drinks added $10. Go check it out!“

“Great and delicious Pad Thaï! Was fresh and traditional! 💯 I have ordered half shrimp/half chicken. Big portion and leftover. The service was professional and pretty quick. Nice staff. Cute clean warm and welcoming place. Thank you! I highly recommend this restaurant. 👍“

“We spent a long weekend in Pasadena and at first chose this Thai place because it was just 5min walking from our rental cottage. They greeted us so friendly and accommodated our requests for items on the side. Then, the next day we came back here because everything was so flavorful! My husband had the crispy sole fish special and I enjoyed the glass noodles with shrimp. Exquisite!
We highly recommend!“

“Food was absolutely delicious! Jonathan was an exceptional - guided us through the menu.“

“Great food, great service, generous portions.“

“I'm 1/3 through the menu trying different entrees. So far, every meal has been a tasty treat! The food is always hot, flavorful, colorful . . . and delish!😋“

“Server has attention to detail and well educated in the dishes they have, went in looking for specific item and ended up choosing another thanks to her recommendation, The dish that I chose to get was the drunken noodles, the flavor and the ingredients are well combined and the vegetables still have a crispiness to it even though they're fried, I also got to try a new mango pudding, let me tell you as someone who loves fruity desserts, this was a PLUS for me, Loved it. Will be recommending this spot to others and coming back myself for sure!“

“Clean restaurant and decent pricing for LA. The tom kha soup stood out and was absolutely delicious, but it only had three pieces of shrimp, which I paid extra for. The drunken noodle was soggier and had no egg. Service was fast and efficient.“

“Quaint, chill vibe. The food is amazing. So delicious, and comes to the table piping hot and quick. My favorite so far is the yellow curry chicken, and the seafood fried rice, and the crab fried rice. I haven't had anything that wasn't good. One of our go to spots for lunch!!“

“Great food. Friendly fast service“

“Incredible food, savory broth.“

“This place does Japanese AND Thai food?! So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their spicy tuna and imitation crab crispy rice, dragon roll, and chicken pad Thai to try. The spicy tuna was smooth, not fishy, not really spicy, and pretty limey. The imitation crab mixture was mellow, not fishy or stringy, and was a little mayoy. The rice on the bottom was lightly crispity crunchity and chewy. The dragon roll was filled with more of that imitation crab mix and crunchy briney not fishy masago and was topped with a thin layer of creamy avocado, fatty skin on eel, and sweet drizzle. Wasn’t the biggest fan of the eel skin. The pad Thai came fresh crunchy iceberg lettuce topped with like a peanut sauce dressing. The pad Thai itself was nicely sweet, savory, and tangy and had chewy springy rice noodles, crunchy bean sprouts and a decent amount of a bit dry chicken breast, egg, and bean curd. They’re family owned, everyone here is super nice, and everything tasted really fresh, clean, and not fishy which I like. Overall this place is lowkey pretty good.

Crispy rice $8.50
Dragon roll $19
Chicken pad Thai $21.50“

“FANTASTIC Thai food! We have lived in the area for 8 years and recently decided to give BTC a try. The food is fresh, very good portions, every dish was superb (we particularly loved the fried rice and egg rolls). We will definitely be putting this restaurant into our regular rotation. Good stuff!“

“I had the all white meat Hainan Chicken plate. Everything was absolutely delicious. I’m definitely coming back. I highly recommend this place.“

“I ordered the red pumpkin chicken curry (unique menu item), steamed chicken dumplings, Thai tea. The quality and quantity was 10/10, flavor was great, service was quick, and decent pricing. And the rice was shaped like a flower, so cute!

This restaurant is near vroman’s bookstore- fun lunch or dinner spot after checking out some books or running errands at target across the street.“

“Great place for a date! Delicious food and incredible atmosphere. The place was empty at lunch and was more casual, but very much worth trying if you like Thai food. The food was rich in flavors and the duck was cooked so beautifully. Their pad Thai was also a great comfort food option.“

“Just got the banh mi delivered-2 for 1 meatloaf and ham from Uber Eats. Fabulous- my expectations were low as special offer. The bread is really good like I think French people be jealous. Amazing meat filling v good and generous. Tastes v good and excellent banh mi deal, for price in this area. Iced coffee also v good. No clue on service and atmosphere as delivery. Carrots and jalepenos v fresh and good.“
