Food is great, ordered the beef pad see ew, side of white rice, and an order of veggie egg rolls. Delishhhh! We have been here before years ago and remembered how much we like our meal, but didn't live in the area. We are so glad we remembered and they are still here! We had our food delivered and it arrived warm, fresh and packaged well. Will definitely be ordering again. read more

The is my local Thai restaurant spot that we order online from. They always have our order ready to go and rarely have any mistakes with our order. What do I order you ask? Well, the pad se ew and Mongolian beef is always my go to and the star of that combination-- their rice. The jasmine rice is oh so good! I've not eaten there in a long time but it looks super relaxing and folks seem to enjoy eating at the restaurant. read more

chao doi! BOMB FOOD , SERVICE and VIBE ! i order online and eat there inside on occasion. I love the yellow chicken curry , i recommend that dish with a thai tea! read more

Service was great. The server was so pleasant and fast. The food was very good. We had egg rolls , they served 6 pieces very generous. The chicken Radna was one of the best that I tasted. It had plenty of gravy which I requested, The ground chicken with basil was spicy so did not have it but my niece and nephew liked it. The beef with pineapple was delicious as well. We were all happy customers and recommend this place, read more

Ordered a chicken pad thai to go half an hr before they closed on a weekday night. Every other spot was closed, and I was craving it and thought it's hard to get pad thai wrong. I don't know what they did because I can't imagine it's how it usually tastes. Super oily and bland. Not even sweet. After a few bites I felt sick/grossed out for some reason. The noodles were not long and minced up and hard to pick up with a fork or chopsticks. I didn't eat anymore and the few bites just sat in my stomach in an uncomfortable way. Maybe the oil was rancid? Or they cut some corners cause it was a very late order? It was also basically $20. I never write reviews but that was the worst pad thai I've ever had. read more

Great curry lunch special. Was so pleasantly surprised. Our server was wonderful. Tried the Panang & the yellow curry. Great portion for a nice lunch. read more

Too much time had passed since the last time my boyfriend and I made our way to Chao Doi Thai! We seated ourselves and our server was friendly, as usual! :) it was busier than normal but it still had its cozy vibe. We tried the shrimp egg roll to start, and it was so fresh and flavorful. He tried the pad Thai and loved it. I ventured to the Tom Kha and I'm SO glad I did!! The rich coconut curry was perfectly balanced with the savory chicken. We both had enough for plenty of leftovers! For dessert, we ended with the taro smoothie. Can't wait to be back! read more

The food is absolutely amazing and the staff have always been so welcoming, kind and provide such a nice vibe and experience. We have been eating here since 2020 and I was so grateful to be able to get takeout throughout the pandemic times and then my family moved away for a while. Now we are back and it is so nice to see it still here and providing the same delicious food! read more

Food was mid. We paid with credit card and were going to leave a tip in cash at the table, when the waitress came in and demanded a tip. That obviously was enough for us to change our minds. Not only that, I found out they made a fraud and gave themselves a tip on my credit card. I reported to my bank. I'm glad I saved my receipt! Will never go back there. read more

Authentic Thai food, generous portions and speedy service.The food is delicious and comforting. We have been long time customers and visit at least once weekly. read more

Very kind and considerate people :) The spicy beef salad was delicious. The spice was perfectly on point. I was so impressed by the way our server managed the dining room and was so kind to everyone! Not only that, but a big thank you to our server for trying to track me down after I left my credit card! She had my card waiting for me when I circled back! We were recommended this restaurant and it did not disappoint! :) read more

Once again, this place still have great service and foods! The waiter was being funny when we asked for 2 chopsticks. So he brought exactly 2 chopsticks when we actually meant pairs of chopsticks! Haha. We ordered spicy chow mein this time instead of pad see ew and it is also good!! Always felt warm welcome when we are here! read more

So I've dined here once and gotten takeout once and both times were pretty mediocre. The only good thing is this place is open later than most of the other Thai spots in Pasadena. Parking was pretty easy to find on the street. As far as the food goes: Pad Thai (3/5): The noodles came out super clumped together and seemed over cooked. Also, the taste was just a little off and way darker coloring than I'm used to. They didn't provide any lime or lemon either for acid to cut the sweetness. The egg appeared to have been cooked separately and thrown on top instead of being cooked together with the noodles. Pineapple fried rice (3/5): The rice was overdone and came out in small pieces so you don't get the chew of in tact rice kernels. Prob was not day old rice or smashed too much during the stir frying process. Taste was ok and came with nice big shrimp and pineapple chunks but rice was not good. Chao doi platter (4/5): This was actually pretty decent and nicely fried. It comes with egg rolls, fried shrimp, crab rangoon, and crispy triangle. Came with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. Definitely not a first choice Thai spot for me but could do in a pinch. Also could be that their other dishes are made better. read more

This local thai spot is consistently good with friendly service. The tom kha seafood is loaded with flavor and lots of fish, squid, shrimp and muscles and authentic Thai spices. read more

This is a fantastic Thai restaurant located in a great corner (Los Robles Ave and Orange Grove Blvd). I discovered it by happenstance and definitely will be back. I ordered takeout and my order was ready in less than 10 minutes. The Pad Woon Sen (Thai Glass Noodles Stir fried) was definitely the star of the show. Despite being a low calorie food, it was delicious and filled me up. The Pad See Ew, as with every other place I've been to, was amazing. Nothing new here. The Rock Shrimp is a delicious, deep fried shrimp with a side sauce whose formula must be preserved for future generations. It is THAT good. The Sticky Rice was delicious. I always get mine without the mango side but I'm sure even with the mango, it would be amazing. 10/10. Would recommend. read more

Chao Doi Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Pasadena, California

This was my first time ordering online and my last. I ordered via DoorDash and was excited to treat myself to some nice Thai food. When I got my food I specifically say NO ICE in my Ice tea. But there was ice. Then the fried calamari was cold so greasy and in-edible. The bread was mashed and came off the Calamari. After every bite I had a full mouth of grease in my mouth. The pad see ew was not hot as well. And my frost bite tasted like plastic. Also there was hardly any vegetables or meat. Will never eat anything again Food wasn't fresh. Didn't taste good. Low quality. read more

Great food and a very kind staff. We got the curry, pad sew, and egg rolls--all very good. Enjoyed everything!

Pineapple fried rice. Just wanted fried rice don't hate! This place is always good and nice atmosphere. read more

A nice friendly local Thai restaurant that is open late enough for weekday after-work dinner. It's not inexpensive, but the portions are generous and the location is convenient. My favorite is the red curry with brown rice. Another is their hot basil stir fry with chicken. Their soups and appetizers are good too. It's rarely packed and the service is courteous and quick. read more

Firstly the food is fantastic. They make the crab fried rice and pumpkin curry like the places ive been to overseas and it really fulfills a craving. All the staff are so kind and welcoming, it feels like coming home to dinner. All the different refreshing summer drinks are amazing as well. A big plus is the giant windows and lots of potted plants, that really puts me at ease. read more

This friendly neighborhood Thai spot in north Pasadena has all the staples. After trying a few dishes, I think the only thing worth re-ordering is the tomyum soup. The pad thai glowed a strange red, as opposed to orange, and the noodle texture was soggy. All in all, it's a decent spot if you want Thai food in the area, but don't expect anything special. read more

Amaaaazing Thai food here. The flavors are quite authentic. Everything we ordered here was good. It's not very comfortable dining in and it gets loud and echoey. Parking is within the same structure or street larm read more

I ordered takeout: Tofu Pad Thai & Shrimp Tom Kha. Space was clean and quiet. Customer Service was great. Loved supporting a small business, a mom and her young son helped me out. She was teaching him to hand out orders and help with receipts, I thought it was sweet. Food was light on flavor. Pad Thai 5.5/10, it needed to pack a bigger punch in taste. This is a favorite dish of mine and I wouldn't order this again. Tom Kah soup was yummy and satisfying, but a little light on taste-not as light as the pad Thai though. 8.5/10, would order again. Soup comes in small or large. Small was a generous portion. read more

This shop is around the corner of our house so it is our go to place for late night orders. We always end up ordering near the end of the day when we have late work nights and need a quick dinner. Food is always quick for pickup, and easy driveup since garage is almost always empty. Our go to's are their curry's, pad see iw, and pad thai. Consistently good. Ive never eaten in but it is quite large, plenty of tables, and while I wait for my food staff seems very attentive. read more

Cute little restaurant in Pasadena. We got to be seated right away on a Saturday night. They had plenty of empty seats. But I saw they were busy with pick up orders. They only had 1 waiter which made him super busy but he was very nice and friendly! We ordered Thai ice tea which was good and it was served in a glass bottle (tall glass), plenty for 2 people. We ordered calamari for appetizer. It came pretty fast considering they were busy with orders. Calamari was good, it came with fried noodles as well. A bit too oily but overall good. For entree we ordered the crab and shrimp fried rice. It did take a while, fortunately we had our calamari to eat while waiting. The fried rice was worth the wait. It's so delicious! Again a bit too oily for my taste but it was so good! Very generous with the shrimp as well! And it came in a huge portion! We couldn't finish it. Very pleased with this restaurant! read more

Chao Doi Thai Restaurant - Crab and Shrimp Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Pasadena, California

Saddest, most expensive Tom Kha in town. So watered down that the dish's signature flavors and creaminess from coconut milk and lemongrass are missing-- yet, it's $20! read more

This place is just OK. Nothing here really stood out. I would not crave any of their dishes. The servers are really nice and the food portion is good. It's also nice they have a parking structure which was pretty much empty. Ordered the pad Thai, papaya salad and Panang curry. The best thing was probably the papaya salad as it was spicy with good flavor. Flavor for the curry was lacking or missing something. Def not worth the 75$ tab. read more

i was visiting from New York for an annual music festival in May of 2024 and stumbled on this place. The food was great. I went back. It was great again. I've been thinking about the food for a year--really. I'm going back for the same music festival and am planning on going at least twice this year. Maybe I'll get take out to eat on the plane ride back. Sadly, they won't deliver to Manhattan. :( read more

Came on a Wednesday night and service was quick and friendly. One thing definitely stood out here was so how clean the restaurant itself was which is a major plus. As soon as your sat they give you a pitcher of ice cold water. I ordered the Thai tea to start and I was thoroughly impressed as good Thai tea is hard to come by. Most places it's too sweet or the tea seems non existent in flavor. Ordered the Tom Kha soup which was very well balanced. I would definitely come back and try some more things at this restaurant. Prices are slightly on the higher end. But seems to be on pace for Pasadena. read more

I've been meaning to write a review of this place! I came here in December with a friend for some lunch. We ordered the pad kee mao, pad thai, and tom kha. Everything was served pretty fast! The dishes were good and the prices were reasonable. If a Thai restaurant has mango sticky rice and I'm not on a diet, you know that I'm ordering it! The mango sticky rice was good, but it did have a slight after taste to it. I believe it was a lavender taste, which wasn't bad, but just not what I was used to! Parking was easy and the location was easy to find as well! read more

I have eaten here several times and it's always been great. I have had the tempura shrimp and vegetables, the pineapple curry, and the soft shell crab, and everything's been delicious and reasonably priced. The portions are generous and the hours are late- you just have to be seated by 9:30 pm as otherwise I've seen people been turned away at 9:35 so just be aware. Give it a try! read more

Everytime I have gone the food is great and the customer service is awesome. It is always a fan favorite.

Pad Thai with shrimp was fresh and delicious, highly recommend. Also ordered the fresh lemonade and it didn't disappoint..awesome service and peaceful vibe...I'll be coming back soon! read more

Second time. Don't order take out it's not the same. I used app asked for extra hot sauce and chop sticks didn't get either. The spicy noddles with chicken taste like they where mixed with shrimp not a great taste. read more

Sorry I forgot to take photos but we were too busy having fun. I called Sky a few days ago and asked if we could reserve a table for 7 and because we were having a meeting, might stay in one place for a 2-3 hours (turned in to almost 4!). She was great on the phone and in person and NOT ONCE did she push us along. I finally tasted Thai Iced Coffee and that was a revelation. We had an assortment of dishes from Spicy Eggplant to Pumpkin Curry and, of course, Panang. The person ordering that later commented that she usually used soy sauce on any Asian food and it never crossed her mind. We finished off with Mango Sticky Rice and left there having had a great meeting, wonderful food and seeing nice people. BTW, the ambiance was great! read more

I would actually rate this place with 4.5 stars. Really great customer service and fast preparation of food. Pad see ew beef: flavorful, soft noodles, tender beef, one of my favorites. I prefer this over their pad Thai. Crab lagoon: crispy cheesy crab rangooooon Papaya salad: ordered it mild, will probably order it medium spice next time, really fresh, not too salty read more
