Unfortunately, the pad see ew was tasteless. The tofu was fried well but the noodles and actual flavor were nonexistent. I would not recommend getting this dish at all read more

Indra Restaurant - Pad see ew - Thai Near Me - Glendale, California

This will forever be our families favorite Thai spot! It has changed - after the pandemic, the vibes and atmosphere is not what it was back in the 70s,80s,9Os,00s! and since the lovely owners passings. The food remains the same though. Many of us in the area grew up on Indra! We had Hundreds of family dinners there! The cravings for Indra will always be there for us! Garlic fried ribs, tofu soup, crispy pork with broccoli, tom kha, garlic beef, pad se eww, spicy bamboo chicken ( not on menu ) , fried fish, crispy pork bits prik king ( in container on counter), shrimp prik king, braised eggplant, tom yum, so many too name. No other restaurants have that same soup flavor that is perfection! We love Indra. read more

Amazing food. Best Thai food outside Thai Town. We always order the Chinese broccoli with crispy pork, ask for the crispy pork on the side to keep it crispy. read more

Love this place. My family has been eating here since the 80's. Highlight dishes for me has to be the Cool Noodles, aka "#91", don't forget to ask for the fish sauce with the chopped chilies, Fried Eggplant with Kapi sauce, the Fried Fish with the red sauce and chilies with milk (spicy) and last but not least the Panang (beef and gravy, 'nough said). read more

Been coming here since I was a kid (20+ years). Love the service and love the food. Always a great sit down spot for some good food!

Food is always the best. Cool noodles and the Garlic Pork Ribs are my comfort food. Must try! I've been going to this place for over 20 years now and service is always exceptional. The place is always clean despite being in a small plaza. read more

I usually order tom ka to get an idea of the quality of food. The tom ka here could be best summed up with one word: meh. It was not lively, barely sweet, barely spicy, the vegetables and chicken were tired. This place is how you would expect Applebee's to do Thai food. The papaya salad was equally unremarkable. Fried rice, same. The only dish we had that was somewhat palatable was the eggplant curry. It had the consistency of the tom ka but the vegetables were fresh and seemed to have a little spice. It was more of a soup than typical curry dish. I ate it with the soup bowl and spoon. The pad see was tired, with withered overcooked broccoli and a thick gooey gray sauce covering the overcooked noodles. It was very bland. There may be better choices off the menu, but we will not be returning to find out. read more

This place has been family owned for over 40 years. Good food and great owners. True Thai food and the best in town.

good pLace with good Food... Seafood curry was good able to serve 2-3 person... something different for a thAi resto. Been to some thai restos around but this serves more than usual thai food... like the seafood curry which is one of the best sellers. Likewise the thai toast is delish also. a Must trY pLace wheN in verduGo areA... read more

Indra Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Glendale, California

Consistent high quality ingredients. Dont leave without fried rice or crispy pork with broccoli

I've been a regular at Indra since the 80s, and it's been a pretty reliable spot for good Thai food over the years. However, I've noticed that their menu has gradually shortened over time, leaving it feeling a bit limited compared to other Thai restaurants in the area. Nevertheless, they still nail the classics like Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, and their various curries--all consistently tasty. Back in the 90s, this used to be my go-to spot. While it may not rank as the absolute best Thai restaurant around, if you're craving those basic Thai dishes, it'll certainly hit the spot! I never think about it as a first choice when it comes to Thai food. But a convenient choice. read more

I ordered to-go for Mother's Day. They had a 7% discount special for the entire bill, which was a huge plus. We go here often, which is why my mom picked this place for Mother's Day. I placed an order the day before. Everything was ready by the time I got there. The portions are big for the price you pay. I absolutely adored the Garlic Pork Ribs. It is juicy with the right amount of Garlic. The Chicken BBQ was huge and flavorful. The Pad See You had a generous amount of protein with the right amount of saltiness and greasiness. My Mom's favorite is the Beef Salad because of the variety of vegetables and the tender beef. The Crab Fried Rice HAS REAL CRAB! It is so flavorful that you can eat it by itself, so good! Make sure to ask for their Chili Paste and Vinegar with jalapeños since they both can go well with any of these dishes. I also like to get the Fried Banana with Sesame seeds since their bananas they use are not too ripe. Thai Iced Tea is a must as well! It has less sweetness and more of that Thai Iced Tea flavor. Their service was fast and friendly. They have a parking lot so the parking is easy. read more

This review also is long overdue. Ive been coming here for over 30 years and nothing beats this Thai food. My parents came here even before I was born, and now my husband comes here with me. It's truly a gem. I hold alot of fond memories from coming here with friends and family since the 90s. The food and service is excellent. I recommend coming here with a large group so you can all try the following. Btw this is almost always our go to order for groups of 5 or more. You wont be sorry Tum Yum with chicken soup Chicken satay Prik King with tofu Kra Pow with chicken Shrimp in the red ginger curry sauce Pad Thai with chicken Fried Catfish with curry (it has bones, but so worth the flavor) And don't forget the fried bananas for dessert. Enjoy! read more

Does anyone know if this place is under new ownership? We have been coming here for about 44 years. We know the owner but haven't seen her in years!! About half of those years, after we moved from the area, we drove about 45 minutes for the good food. However, for the past two years, we have been disappointed!! The cat fish tastes muddy - not crispy and garlicky as it was in the past! The chicken curry with bamboo shoots lacks the lime leaf flavor and the slight sweetness from palm sugar which adds a nice balance to curry. The beef prik king was just okay but had better flavor, however lacking the spiciness we asked for. The shrimp fried rice was a joke! Come on now - Thai fried rice is supposed to better than what was served - simply white rice swirled with egg and oil! Disgusting! Where are the vegetables? Even carrot and peas would have satisfied!! Even Panda Express has better fried rice!! The so called spicy squid with Mint had curled up calamari that looked alien like! The fried pork ribs were tasty! That was the saving grace! Yeah! 120.00 later - the time it took to drive - no more!! read more

I used to love this place, we've been coming here for the last 40 plus years frequently. I hate to see an establishment go down the drain. It seems like for a while the owner's son took over the cooking/kitchen & diff chefs. I stopped coming to this place because everyone retired the chef, the owner died, the service staff quit and the overall ambience and food changed. It was inconsistent and the food was not good anymore the way it used to. Today, a day after Thanksgiving I decided to try again bec i feel nostalgic for some reason. I was pleasantly surprised because my favorite dishes are coming back to life. The catfish & the beef red curry(panang)... I remember the way it used to, not 100% but it's almost there and worth coming back. I talked to the wife of the son who took over and apparently INDRA has a new chef of two years. I certainly wish that there's hope for this establishment to be resurrected. You old patrons & loyal followers of INDRA come and try again this old beloved Thai establishment. And for the owners, please bring back the Glory, the Delicious Food and friendly ambiance of classic authentic & legendary INDRA. read more

This review is loooooong overdue! I have been going to this restaurant since the 90's. When I first visited this restaurant...the staff don't speak very good English and the owner's children were very young. Fast forward...the owner and some of the original staff have retired and the owner's children are all grown up with their own children! This place has stayed true to their DNA from day 1...serving delicious Thai food at an affordable price. It doesn't matter where I moved...I drive to this location when I want authentic Thai food. My fave here is the chicken chili garlic (I think they're calling it Krapow now). It stayed consistent and yummy since I first discovered this dish back in the 90's. I have tried dishes like chicken chili garlic in other Thai restaurants but for some reason...it's not the same. It's a small hole in wall Thai restaurant with easy parking. Food stayed consisted and still affordable (especially in today's inflation). I pray this restaurant never close and I already told my hubby that if he moved me farther from this place...we'll probably need to order it and ship frozen so I'll survive! There's so many Thai restaurants that come and go. But this place stayed strong during the pandemic and continue to serve delicious authentic Thai food that's good to your belly at a price that's kind to your wallet. I encourage you to give this restaurant a chance and try it out! read more

My family has been coming here for years, it was our go-to spot for family occasions. Honestly, I haven't been back here very often ever since our family moved further away but the food has been the same since. It is SO good, i highly recommend the seafood curry as it is their well known dish. You really can't find it anywhere else. I was so hurt to find out that they recently got broken into and haven't had many customers since the pandemic. Please help support this small business, I promise you won't be disappointed! Love Indras!!! read more

Indra Restaurant - Seafood Curry - Thai Near Me - Glendale, California

What can I say about this place! First off let me say this, I have been going here since I was 14 in 2004. I always did my laundry at the corner laundromat next to it! I've probably seen that place have three different owners but anyways. Indra, my go to thai spot when I used to live in glendale. Even now 2021 I still go there and I don't live in glendale anymore. Everything is good here! But my main go to for a long time is the same thing I get all the time. The beef Pad see ew with tofu and two Chile sauce poured over it! Noodles cooked great, the beef cooked just right and the tofu sautéed with almost now blemish or rupture to the tofu! Hands down come to this place for your quick Thai fix! read more

Passed by while driving down Verdugo and made a mental note to try it, had a day off Thursday so I decided to try their lunch special. I got the Prik King lunch special with veggie and loved it so much. I ate the entire thing, I felt it was a very good portion for lunch, but it was too good not to finish. I also tried the Thai ice boba and though it was very sweet, I enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend and will be trying other dishes in the future. read more

What happened to this restaurant? I used to love eating here (for nearly 20 years). I haven't been here in a couple of years and holy cow did the quality go down. Pad thai, pad see ew, pork spare ribs, and the fried fish were all so unbelievable bad and flavorless. I also ordered a cucumber salad which came in a tiny Styrofoam cup with sweet and sour sauce! Yuck! read more

What happened to my favorite Thai restaurant? It used to be my go to for home-cooking style Thai foods. My visit yesterday was a big disappointment. Food was served in a styrofoam container (even we dined in at the restaurant). The Tom yum noodle soup was tasteless. The restaurant was a long stable place for Glendale community. I hate to see it goes under. read more

I cannot describe how delicious the Thai Toast is here. Oh, you don't know what Thai Toast is? Let me offer you a basic explanation so you can go home and tell yo momma. Thai Toast is what you get if you take the best memory of your childhood, combine it with the dreams and aspirations you had for your future as you entered college, mixed it in with the sensation of finding your true love, add in a dash of the first time you held your first born child in your arms, and multiplied it by that moment when Arya Stark killed the night king. If you do that, you're almost close to understanding how good Thai Toast is. I beg of you, for all that is holy, for the love of GOD please go try the Thai Toast. The pad thai is kewl too. Love, Batman read more

Beef noodle soup and the lunch trio. Amazing! Especially pleased with the soup. Delish read more

The food wasn't really good. I ordered the Pad Thai lunch special for $10 and it's super bland. No flavor of sweet and sour like other Thai restaurants I've been to. The noodles seem overcooked and the chicken wasn't great. I ate a couple of bites and than threw the food away (which I rarely do. I don't like to waste food but for rare times) since it just was that bad. The lunch price is fair but I wouldn't order this again or come back here. The menu is small and there are no fried rice dishes. I would not really recommend this place. read more

I've been eating in Thai restaurants forever ,but the food in this place doesn't taste like Thai or not authentic. Not going back. The only good thing here is their polite service and nothing else. Cozy corner (Glendale) is better. read more

I have been coming here for over 30 years since I was a teen, and I must say the food is still good. I have since moved out of the area, I was glad to taste the green curry chicken again. The wonton soup was also tasty. I'll let the pics speak for themselves, they say, ''you eat with your eyes first." The taste is distinctly Indra, and I have yet to find it's equivalent in West Covina. Also, the green curry is spicy, I asked for no spicy and that doesn't exist, so for the fire lovers it's enjoyable, but if you want no spice it doesn't exist. read more

The food is so consistently delicious. My family has been dining in this family owned restaurant for probably 30 years.

Always a pleasure to visit and bring the family for some thai food. read more

4 for the food taste. It satisfies you when you have a crave for Thai food. Ive tried their pad see ew, pad kra pao, Thai ice tea, and mango sticky rice, and seafood curry in clay plate - I like them. The fillet fish with ginger is okay... nothing great about it. I wouldn't ordered again. I probably tried a few other dishes but couldn't remember (and that means they were just okay). 3.5 for the place itself. This place been there for probably 30 years, I heard. It's an okay place not a fancy restaurant. Restroom is small but pretty clean. 3 for the service. Unfortunately, they are slow and I think maybe they're understaffed. I understand things are hard recently and they have to make some adjustments but yeah, sometimes it can take too long. Free parking available. It's a small shopping stores area and sometimes it can be tough looking for parking. Overall rating is 3.5 but I'm leaning to 3 for the slow service. read more
