Had a lovely birthday dinner here on a Sunday night with my cousin. Service was polite, friendly, and attentive. There's free street parking and a parking lot at the back of the restaurant. The portions were good and flavorful. The vibe was chill. We had a great time and everything tasted delicious! read more

Their pad see yew is PHENOMENAL. Super flavorful and fresh ingredients. I also really appreciate their serene patio and that its dog friendly out there! read more

Food is absolutely delicious, I had no idea that I had this gem of Thai food so close to home. The pad thai is one of my favorites, and the Thai yellow curry is also quite tasty, with a little bit of a kick but not so much that it's too spicy to eat. The cream cheese wontons are crunchy and savory. The chicken satee with the peanut sauce has a very generous portion and is big enough to be a meal for 1 or great to share. My bf thoroughly enjoyed the soup and the mixed vegetables with shrimp added. The service is really good. Be aware that they close for an hour for their lunch in the late afternoon, so check their schedule before you go. Also, it's a cozy place to dine in. read more

I've been here twice now for lunch and I love this little spot! I was a bit hesitant the first time I came around because of its name lol but the food did not disappoint. I love me a good lunch special menu and there are so many options here! In fact, the waiter moved my friend and I to a bigger table after we ordered 4 dishes between the both of us lol! My favorite of all time is the pad see ew of course! It is very well done and flavorful. The spring rolls caught me off guard bc it was literally only vegetables inside (no noodles, meat, etc.) LOL and the crab wonton was COLD inside which I wasn't prepared for either (used to warm crab rangoon). I did really like the sauce they provided for the crab wontons though. My friend really liked her honey pork lunch special! I also ordered a Thai tea and it's the real thing! So good and not overly sweet. A great place to eat at if you ever want Thai food in the area. You will not be disappointed! read more

Wow, I haven't been back to Daisy Mint since college and I forgot how good this place was. My friends and I decided to grab lunch on Saturday right when it opened so we seated immediately. We ordered the pad thai, pad see ew and papaya salad. The pad thai and pad see ew were ordered from the lunch special menu. I was surprised to see a lunch special on a weekend. The portion of the pad thai and pad see ew were pretty generous. Everything that we order tasted really flavorful and was tasty. My favorite was the pad thai because it has a sweetness to it but it might be too sweet for others. Service is quick and friendly. The décor of the restaurant is very cute and antique looking. There's a parking lot in the back of the restaurant and also street parking as well. read more

Wow...Daisy Mint has always been fantastic, but two out of the three items ordered yesterday were BAD. Pad see ew was unlike their typical delicious pad see ew. I seemed like they chopped up leftover vegetables and sent me leftover PSE. terrible. But the yellow chicken curry was not edible. With the cost of food this days I hate to throw out food. I considered doctoring this entree with coconut milk but decided after burping up this foul meal all night...time to trash the meal. What's happened here at Daisy mint. New owners, new Kitchen staff...a shame read more

My favorite Thai restaurant in the US. Exceptional pad see ew and crying tiger, food yellow curry and pad kee mao. Portion size is reasonable, as is pricing. The kitchen can be a bit slow at times, but the atmosphere is nice enough that you're not in a hurry to leave. I no longer live in LA, but I'm coming back to this restaurant on each return trip. read more

Delivery was super fast big portions Thai tea was really good but if youre asian do not eat here the food does not have flavor ): Actually very disappointed and confused by the reviews because it seems as tho the people who gave good reviews have never had good thai food before read more

This is a very good Thai restaurant in East Pasadena. I came back in 2016 and was rushed through my meal because they close so early. I never came back because it seemed a little rude at the time. I came again and found the food is actually delightful. Service was much friendlier than I remembered. However, the fact is they close early, and if you want to relax and enjoy your meal unrushed, do not come in the last hour of service. Last call is 3 minutes prior to their closing, and they clearly want to get out of there. I understand, but just don't come in the last hour and expect to leisurely enjoy your meal. It's a very tiny restaurant but with a nice, hip decor. Parking can be a little tricky, but we managed to find something. The food itself is high quality and quite good all around. We had the chicken pad see ew, which was terrific. The crying tiger was also excellent, with delicious flavor and good quality beef. The Thai BBQ chicken is a standout. Many places make it with goopy wet sauce on top. This place makes it exactly how we like it. More of a marinade that is then grilled to a dry, crispy exterior. It's really great. The cashew nut chicken was also excellent. Usually, at other places, this isn't spicy, but they do it spicy here, and I like it a lot. The only misfire of the night was the spicy fried rice. Not only was it not spicy at all, but it was outright bland. Not good. Basically, come for an early dinner, but definitely come and try out this place. It's some good eating. Check it out! read more

I ordered takeout from Daisy Mint tonight. I have never ordered the yellow chicken curry from here. It is FULL of giant potatoes and giant carrots!! Barely any chicken UGH There was no way in the world I would've paid this price $$ for potatoes and carrots vs chicken it is a complete rip off. This dish is in a soup container so you don't realize it until you get home. I was beyond upset. Don't go here. If you look at the pictures posted on their website next to this dish you only chicken and curry. Look at the photos of what I actually paid for. read more

I've only ordered takeout but I have to say Daisy Mint might be the best Thai I've had on the east side. My favorite is the yellow curry, and I've had a lot of different ones all over this side of town, and this is the best one I've had hands down. Flavorful, rich, and the amount you get nets you at least (for me) 2-3 days worth. The prices are also really fair, especially right now when everything feels so staggeringly high. I can't wait to try other things on the menu. Big recommend! read more

I got the tom yum soup and it tastes extremely sour. Not spicy at all and I couldn't taste anything else except the lime. The place was clean and cute but the food was meh. read more

Great Thai place with most of your traditional Thai favorites dishes like Tom Yum, Pad Thai, curries, etc but so much more with their duck noodles, salmons and different appetizers like prata with curry. Lunch specials too. Super friendly service and good prices. Parking in back and on the street. Nice cozy atmosphere. read more

Got some for take out! You can call in, use DoorDash or their internal square site for pickup. There are lunch specials 11:30a-2:45a but their site won't accept lunch specials before 12p. Fortunately the staff was able to accommodate over the phone. The entrees are a good size. We got birds nest, daisy noodle, and Penang pumpkin curry with rice/salad. All are tasty and generous with proteins for the price. We parked on the street just read the signs. read more

My favorite dish is their Daisy Mint Salmon. All of their dishes - traditional or fusion- are uniformly high quality - fresh and delicious.

A friend and I went to Daisy Mint before taking a class in Altadena. This place has cute decor and a great menu. We had fun looking at the eclectic art ok the walls and found plenty of vegetarian menu options. The service was A+. Will visit again when I'm in the neighborhood! read more

Drunken noodles are perfect. There's time where the noodles are either clumpy, thick, or too saucy.. these noodles are just right. The food has a char broiled taste that take these noodles to the next level. I think I am in love. read more

Below Average Thai Food I visited Daisy Mint with 3 friends and was unfortunately disappointed with the food. While the wait staff was very friendly and attentive, the food itself was just average at best. Here's what we ate. * Chicken Satay: The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the peanut sauce lacked flavor. The portion size was quite large * Cream Cheese Wontons: Pretty standard fair * Thai Ice Tea: Average * Thai Beef and Sticky Rice: The Thai beef and sticky rice was the best of the entrees. If I only ordered this they would have got a better review from me * Chicken Pad See Ew: The noodles were OK. The sauce was bland * Pineapple Fried Rice: This dish was OK. Average * Yellow Curry: The curry was average at best. A wee bit spicy I wouldn't recommend Daisy Mint. The food is just average and flavorless. You can definitely find better Thai food in Pasadena for less money at Kwan's Kitchen. read more

Daisy Mint is a local favorite and Pasadena mainstay. I've dined in a few times, and service is solid. The chicken pad thai is a classic for me, and it's flavorful and a good portion. Last visit, I tried the drunken noodle, which had a great sauce. I ordered beef and unfortunately they served pork. They have plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. read more

We arrived right at opening, and my first impression was the space is much smaller than it appears online. That said, we were the first guests and seated immediately. The restaurant filled up quick! The food was absolutely delicious. Don't overlook their lunch specials; they offer great value and variety. The reason for the 4-star rating is the service. We only saw our server twice: once to take our order and again to collect the check. Our water was never refilled, and I had to get up to request takeout boxes. It was actually a different staff member who brought the boxes and dropped off the check. While the service could use improvement, the incredible food made up for it. read more

Great food, lovely atmosphere, and incredibly kind staff. 10/10, check it out! Especially the Pad See You

We used to frequent daisy mint often but since becoming fully plant based it hasn't really been on our list. We went back this year (when we were kid free) and got peanut dumplings which are still amazing. I was so happy to find they have plant based milk to do a Thai iced tea. Would love if they had more plant based / vegan options. Overall the place is so adorable with such beautiful decor! read more

The food is amazing here. I've never actually eaten in, so can't talk about the service or the ambience. But I would highly recommend the food here! Everything we tried was amazing. The flavors were fresh and authentic. read more

Yummm. One word to describe this place. It's small and intimate inside and the service is nice. The waitress sat us immediately and she checked in on us a few times. They forgot our protein in one of the dishes and the chef provided a nice bowl of chicken on the side. Drunken noodles are typically spicy, but this one lacked spice. I think it has great flavor though, so I still recommend it. Although just make sure to add the whole chili powder container on the side! I loooooveeee papaya salad and this one had extra lime. I think I'm just so used to spice that I asked for Thai chilies on the side to add to the papaya salad. It leveled up the dish for me, give it a shot! I appreciate that they cut up the lettuce on the side instead of leaving it whole like other places. I liked the daisy noodles, but I wouldn't order it again. I think the flavor was good, but not something I'd crave again. It's an interesting dish though! Next time I def want to try their yellow curry and mango sticky rice (unfortunately it's not mango season)! It was about $50 for three items and we had some leftovers, so I think it was worth it. I'll be back again when I have Thai cravings! read more

Cute Thai restaurant! Food is yummy, portion size is generous, service was friendly. Can't wait to come back. Ordered the spicy eggplant (so good!) , pad thai (generous size) , and hot Jasmine tea in a pot (refreshing). Whenever I come here I leave happy. I also make a stop at the cute bookshop (Book Alley), and Blue Rooster Art Supplies to grab some pens or other supplies- they have a cute cat named Lizard (it's close to the bookstore). So all in all great local for a nice afternoon out. Parking was not bad- found street parking. read more

Personally, I order from Daisy Mint (DM) about twice a month (sometimes more). Their food is amazing! :) This will be my third review, but this time for a catering request for an important meeting at my job. Daisy Mint did not disappoint. I submitted the catering request about a week out and DM was excellent in getting back to me to confirm my order and make sure that I had all of my selections and needs met. I was super appreciative of the communication on their part; especially the friendliness and assurances that they provided. Our order was delivered right on time. The food was hot, packaged well, and included all the fixings (condiments, utensils, etc.). Also, the gentleman who delivered was super nice and helpful in getting things set up. Lastly, as always, the food was AMAZING, and our meeting attendees were impressed. :) Thank you Daisy Mint and Team for being so awesome. read more

This place seems like a hidden gem, the interior is very cute and well decorated, it definitely gives me cozy vibes. This service is really good too, they're always attentive to you. I always come back here for the same thing which is the steak salad. The steak has an amazing flavor and the dressing on the salad is delicious, it's a little spicy and tangy with the lime, and of course can't have good thai food without good white rice! Almost forgot, if you love green tea, order some milky green tea! read more

Daisy Mint - Steak Salad - Thai Near Me - Pasadena, California

One of my favorite go to for Thai food in Pasadena. They are consistently good. The quality, the aromatics spices, the flavor -- it's addicting. The best part is that their ingredients are fresh! My favorite dish of all time is the Panang Curry. It's a great vegetarian dish. There's large chunks of fresh veggies and pumpkin. Drizzle the sauce over rice and it's the perfect comfort food. I've also enjoyed their Pad See Ew, Duck Noodle Soup, and Beef Salad. If you're looking for a healthy but tasty salad, definitely recommend their beef salad. I love the decor of this quaint little restaurant. It's cute, perfect for a date. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be tricky, street parking is your best bet unless you're lucky enough to find a spot in the back. Bon appetit yelpers! read more

I've come to Daisy Mint many times and this review is long overdue. They're pretty authentic thai food and they're allergen friendly. Please do ask them for any gluten free as some dishes that are not marked "gluten free", might be able to be modified. Pad thai is always a good idea and theirs is definitely one to try. Their tom kha (coconut soup) is very delicious, savory and will fulfill your cravings in a cold weather. Salmon curry - very good. It comes with your choice of white or brown rice. Very savory and fulfill your omega with this :) They used to have "Daisy Chicken Wings" which no longer in the menu. It was gluten free and sweet and spicy. Wish they bring that to the menu again. They have parking in the back and street parking. They just recently renovated their back patio. It looks very nice. read more

Great Authentic Cooking with the Grandmas and Aunties in the Kitchen! We've had the dine in experience and the to go options.

Let's start with parking. 3 designated spot in the parking lot at the back of the building and 1hr/2hr street parking around the streets. Smaller restaurant with good customer service. Portions for all items were surprisingly generous. Papaya salad: had basic flavor but wasn't dialed up to the level it should be. It felt like 4 steps short of legit flavors. Very vanilla. Pad Thai: was actually decent, with some complexity. Crying tiger: had it was the sticky rice, which was a good choice. The sauce was the star, and the beef was not chewy or overcooked. (Not spicy, but wish it was) Satay: not the typical small portions of dry breast on skewers. There were no skewers at all. Really good sized breast pieces with classic peanut sauce. However the cucumber garnish/salad was not it. It's supposed to be tart and refreshing but was heavy and sweet. Pineapple fried rice: nice and fragrant, but needed a bit more salt and moisture (rice was clumpy - total no no for any fried rice). read more

Wowwwww, I can't believe how good this Thai restaurant is. Everything we got from the coconut ramen, to stir fried vegetables, to pad see yew, to the pumpkin curry were so darn amazing. The service is the best I've experienced. The whole ambiance feels so clean, refreshing, and good vibey. I can't wait to come back again. Amazing absolutely amazing read more

Busy little place on Colorado Avenue. Pasadena is not short on Thai places. This is one of the many and pretty good. It's incredibly popular for take away. So, consider doing such. Though the service is good inside and you can easily snag a table in the window. I had the pad Thai and was happy for $14. While not the best I've ever had, it was good and the price was adequate. My dining partner had the BBQ chicken and was happy with it. Our order came out very quickly. I'd like to go back and really try some other dishes. I suspect there are some that are the reason you go given how busy it was for take away. See website and their social media for hours, location, and more. Parking on street. Open for lunch with specials and dinner. read more
