50 Best Thai Restaurants near San Marino

“Good food,good price, will always go to this location over the one on Valley Blvd in Alhambra👍🏼“

“Thai Thyme is cozy Thai restaurant that specialize in authentic Thailand cuisine. It’s located in Monrovia. They have vast selection of food and drinks at a reasonable price. Interior looks charming with high ceiling and exposed brick. Atmosphere was relaxing.

We have walked passed by Thai Thyme for years but never hand a chance to check-in until tonight. Because it tends to be packed due to its popularity. Anyway, after we perused their menu; I ordered a Chicken Pad Won Sen, Spring Rolls, iced tea and water. The noodle was tasty, moist and flavorful albeit a bit salty. Similarly, spring rolls were delightful. Drinks were good.

Staff were very attentive, engaging and respectful. Prices were fair and competitive. Atmosphere was relaxing and has a good vibe. Overall, it’s a nice Thai spot in my favorite town of Monrovia. I recommend you visit.“

“Our group of four had a lovely time at Miya! We ordered the chicken khao soi, beef pad see ew, beef panang, and morning glory. All were wonderful dishes and they arrived at our table pretty quickly. It’s more important than ever to patronize these kinds of small businesses, particularly considering their location in Altadena. Highly recommend!“

“😃I like the way they cook all family members working real Thai Food cook by Thai people“

“Delicious and nice place.“

“As soon as you open the door at Kwan Kitchen, you are greeted with a friendly ‘how can I help you?’ Seating was available and we asked for some time to go over the menu. When the server returned she was very helpful in answering questions about the menu and on what to order. Spiciness is on a scale of 1 to 5. We both ordered level 2. We started our meal with fried dumplings to share. They were excellent! We then ordered tom yum soup and two entrees to go - pad see ew and pad thai.

The tom yum had veggies and shrimp and was excellent, even reheated. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, no easy feat in a soup.

Pad see ew was very good and good value as it provided more than one meal. Good balance of ingredients but would order a higher spice level next time.

Pad thai was likewise a good selection and tasted great reheated.

Be aware there are a lot of customers picking up and the parking lot is very tight.

I look forward to returning and trying their very popular curry!“

“Love this place! Highly recommended :)“

“We’ve been coming to this spot for years, even back when it had different owners the Thai food was always amazing. We recently decided to try it again under the new ownership, and wow… still absolutely delicious!

We ordered the Pad Thai, Thai Fried Rice, and Pineapple Fried Rice. My husband also had a Thai Iced Tea with boba everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. This is officially our go-to Thai food place!

The restaurant is small and cozy, with a calm and quiet ambiance. The service was excellent professional, polite, and very attentive. Even the bathroom was spotless, which is always a plus.

Highly recommend this gem in Pasadena!“

“Tastes absolutely delicious and exactly the same as it did 30 years ago! Teriyaki chicken, order the #1 and you'll be happy!“

“amazingly delicious.....the best Thai food ever.....you need to try the lettuce raps“

“Everything was great especially the food. I often order pad see ew at the places I go. It was exceptionally good. The chicken meat was excellent and I will order it that way again. Today on my second visit I’m trying the special curry with the chicken. It smells great and I’m ready to dive in. Thai tea is also good. Not overly sweet and no bite. This is my new go to Thai place.“

“Tiny little place serving up food well above its weight class! Really good food! The chef even came out to personally ask us how the food was. So nice! Really interesting decor too! I'd come back with my date! But the place is tiny, so if there's no seating inside, and it's too hot or cold to eat outside, take it to go! The food is worth giving a new home in your belly!“

“I finally remembered to try this place. It didn't disappoint. Everything was made fresh to order. The veggies were crisp and tender. The shrimp were nice and plump. The Tom Yum was zesty and flaming.
It's a nice place for friends, family, or a casual date. It's not fancy. You order before you're seated.
The prices are just about the same as most Thai restaurants. Which bothered me a little since we had to stand in line to order.
But overall, it's a great place! It was yummy! It's was peaceful.“

“had my birthday dinner here, and it was a lovely experience! the staff was so accomodating and kind, and we really loved the patio seating with heaters that kept us warm even in the cold rainy weather. the atmosphere is quaint and the food is delicious. amazing portions for the price! we thoroughly enjoyed pad thai, pad see ew, tom yum soup, kimchi fried rice, and crying tiger (an amazingly tender, smoky steak served with sticky rice) along with a handful of appetizers like salmon wraps and fried tofu. everything was really yummy, and we had plenty of leftovers. 6 of us feasted for about $200, with tip included in that amount. I tipped extra at the end because the staff was so kind and patient with us, even though we were the last to leave after their closing time.“

“Nice food and friendly service! I love their soup noodle and crying tiger.“

“The vegetable yellow curry is delicious and loaded with fresh vegetables and potatoes. I get mine with medium spice, level 4 so it does pack some heat but not too much heat!! Mango sticky rice is also delicious!! The place is small but the atmosphere is cozy.“

“This restaurant serves a lot of dishes I had never even heard of! I tried the Khao klook ga-pi (fermented shrimp rice bowl) - definitely took a chance there but it was absolutely delicious! The servers were helpful with suggestions on how to eat the food and answering questions about the menu. Definitely would love to try more of their menu!“

“This place is a hole in the wall with amazing taste! We drove over from Eagle Rock and it was quick and easy. They have a parking lot so parking is available. Taste felt authentic and yummy 😋. Watch out for kick in soup 🔥!
Check them out!“

“Step into Mama Mae Ting's stall and you will be transported into an authentic Bangkok soi eatery (street stall). Somtam is fresh, crunchy and seasoned as spicy as you can handle; the BBQ chicken (gai yang) & BBQ pork (mu ping) are super savory and juicy (and conveniently served on sticks)..be sure to ask for sticky rice with that! Missed out on the kanomkrok but will save that treat for my next visit. Super arroy di mak-mak!“

“I popped in during my lunch break, and I couldn’t believe how efficient the service was. The staff greeted me right away and made sure I got my food quickly. The pad see ew was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the Thai iced tea was refreshing. The clean, calm interior gave me just the right amount of peace before heading back to the office.“

“Parking was good. Food is good for reasonable cost. Service is good. No sign on the back door so you can't tell if it's the correct place. I had yellow chicken curry. It was good tasting with good, but not perfectly cooked chicken. The curry is very watery. I used 2/3 of it, and it made my rice an unpleasant soggy consistency. Spice level is pretty spot on.“

“The food is like I am in Thailand. So delicious. The restaurant is big, clean and comfortable! The service is fantastic. They are all wonderful, especially Jenny. Highest recommendation for Tantawan! Try it, you’ll love it!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Amazing food! Nice service and friendly owner!“

“Food is excellent and spicy 🌶 enough for my hubby, but mild enough for me! Service is awesome and the owners is super friendly!“

“Nice place for lunch. We ordered the All Day Specials and it was tasty with a good portion too.
The fried rice and pad Thai both tasted great.
We were on the only ones dining in. The guy running the counter is very friendly too.

Parking: Five parking spots in the parking lot and one of them requires the blue card. There are also spots along the road too.“

“Interior chill. Order online available. They speak thai here, friendly. Got the veggie only drunken noodle went in hr before close and ordered takeout. Food ready quickly. Hard working. Price quality location everything great. Spicy is def spicy btw and i was thinking of getting the hottest level forgot authentic Thai spicy is diff from european american spicy lol. Definitely would go back. Wasnt greasy. No edamame. Portions great. Menu good. Will try pad thai nxt time and fried rice.“

“I went here many times and it’s amazing! I love their seafood soup and rice. It’s wonderful. The quality is amazing and i also love some of the noodles they have! their service is amazing as well, the workers give the biggest smiles and feel welcoming. And the. Atmosphere, don't even get me startedd! They recently decorated for Christmas and the tree is amazing! Amazing place and i highly recommend“

“My family and i love this place. Been coming here for years. Even though it doesnt say it. They are open on sundays from 12-8:30pm except the third sunday of the month. At the risk of exposing my to go to spot. This is a hidden gem for some authentic thai. We got a big family and get the pad thai, pad see ew, pineapple curry (i always order side noodles and make it into a ramen :P ), teriyaki chicken, veg. Fried rice, chow mein, pepper garlic, and the broccoli. Never disappointed.“

“Hi-nan rice is the reason I stop by there almost every chance I have on my way home. The staff are friendly and can wa irk their magic in the grill.“

“Muy rica la comida Tun servicio excelente“

“First time here. I was visiting my very good friend and he wanted to have Thai food.

We walked in around 5pm ,and the restaurant is pretty busy, at least half full.

We ordered Tom Yum Soup, Spicy Combination Fried Rice, Spicy Beef Salad, Chicken Chili Basil and Tofu and Chicken Mix Vegetables. The serving size is big enough to share. We had more than enough food for the 3 of us.

Great flavors, well prepared, high quality ingredients and you can taste the authenticity. The Beef Salad to much acidity. The Chicken Chili Basil is on the sweet side. Even the jasmine rice is good quality and taste. My only complaint is the spice level is mild even when we ordered spicy. Just add more with prik nam pla. In the end, we shared an order of the fried banana with coconut ice cream. I wish they bananas were bigger.

Service is attentive and prompt. We got our food with a little wait. Two service staff was very effective managing even when the restaurant was almost full.

Overall first time impression was great making our dining experience an enjoyable one. Solid 4 STAR 🌟.“

“Great food, great service, generous portions.“

“Visiting LA from northern California. Found this gem less than 10 minutes walk from our hotel. Everything about this restaurant was fantastic! From service, atmosphere to all the delicious dishes & drinks. We ordered the appetizer platter (digged in & forgot to get a photo), thai bbq pork fried rice, chicken teriyaki bowl, chili garlic & mint leaves w/ beef & two thai teas. Everything was so delicious 😋. Definitely will stop by again whenever we are in the area.“

“I am not the type of person to do many reviews but I feel this restaurant deserves one, especially, my recomendation. Tried this place with a couple of friends who are very picky when it comes to the authenticity of Asian food, especially when it comes to Thai food. Their verdict was that it's the real deal. We all enjoyed the delicious food and the awesome service. This could be our go-to place for Thai food from now on! 👍“

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

“Food is great... service is good“

“Good food , good place, good price 。“

“I walked into a small restaurant and was greeted by the owner who was very polite and accommodating, it was clean and atmosphere was welcoming. I ordered Yellow Curry w/chicken & Pad Si Ew Noodles with beef to go, I was asked to have a seat and about 12-15 mins later the food was ready to go. The yellow curry was tasty but I tend to have very high standards when it comes to curry. It was more than adequate but it could have been spicier and to be honest, I’ve had better and worse. However, the Pad Si Ew Noodle with beef was AWESOME! It was so delicious and perfectly balanced. I would definitely come back just for this dish 😋“

“Excellent Food! Excellent Service!!! I was having a stressful day and decided to get some delicious Pad Thai from my favorite restaurant, Srisiam Thai Kitchen. The cashier delivered the food to me while I was in my car and I was gifted eggrolls! Thank you so much for ending my stressful day on a good note! I truly appreciate your delicious food and superb customer service! Thank you so much!“

“I haven't been here in a while, but honestly, why have I not been here more often?!?! Well, I've made up for lost times, and came here twice recently. We ordered the same thing, but depending on the crew, some meat was more cooked, and less soft than last time. But otherwise, still pretty good. I'd still come back.
My only annoyance is being charged $4 for on extra box of rice to go. A little expensive, but I get it.“

“Un lugar muy limpio. Y la comida muy rica. Su personal muy amable .Es un restauran familiar.“

“atención especial y excelente comida !“

“My go-to Thai restaurant in SGV! Food is authentic Thai, and great service (accommodated to different taste preferences-more sour, less spicy, etc). As a Thai, I can testify that their food has authentic flavors. We usually order Pad Seew & mango sticky rice. Their salty garlic fried shrimps are amazing also. It’s not a big place so it could get crowded during lunch and dinner times.“

“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.“

“Good food fast delivery friendly“

“This is the best kept secret in glendale, I love their Pad Thai it's the best ive personally ever had and their crab fired rice is so good too! Ashley always gives me great service and its a cute little place. I come here 2-3 a week and look forward to it every time! Thai Touch is the best thai food hands down in the LA AREA and I've tried most of the places. The cook is an IRON CHEF here!“

“Friday 3/28/25 Dinner at Fire Tiger Thai Food in Whittier with my friends Erwin and Victoria. Enjoying a wonderful dinner together after a hard day’s work. We ordered Shrimp pad Thai, fire tiger wings, seven sea soup, crying tiger, and mango sticky rice. The foods were so delicious and savory and a good size portion. Not salty, not too spicy, just right to taste with all the herbs and spices.

Nikki, service staff, was super nice and work diligently to serve all the customers.

The restaurant was beautifully decorated with flowers and was cleaned.

I recommend trying this restaurant.

“Finally! Some decent Thai food in Pasadena. We had the Crab Fried Rice and Chicken Panang. Both were fabulous!!!

Update: Ordered from here again! Was not disappointed; everything was excellent! Ordered Crab Fried Rice, Chicken Panang, Egg Rolls, and Chicken Gyzos. Best Thai I've had in a long, long time.“

“I’ve only had the Tom Yum and Tom Kha soup with shrimp. Both are really good, definitely worth a try if you work nearby. I only gave the place 4 stars because I haven’t tried much so can’t say it’s 5 star worthy.Staff are friendly and they can get those soups out in under 8 mins, perfect for a lunch break.The food hall itself is pretty boring and just a big room with chairs.“
