    Pad Thai and Sweet and sour chicken
    sonia l.

    First time trying this place out today. My city no longer has a Thai food restaurant and this was the next closet shop. I ordered the Pad Thai Chicken and sweet and sour chicken. The food was so fresh especially the onions and bell peppers on sweet and sour chicken. I love that the menu was small because I'm sure they have perfected each plate. Definitely coming back. Oh great customer service on top. Friend smile when I walked in.

    I recommend this place so much, I was around here and I stop for a quick bite and found this nice place " the delicious smell walk me in to it " I ask the person who was attending and he patiently explain to me all the dishes and what ingredients they put on them so I picked up the drunken noodle and it was more delicious than I expected today stopped again and he recommended the " Thai spicy chicken " # 8 in the menu it was so good, I'm looking forward to go eat something else and I highly recommend it it's affordable, clean and best of all delicious. I'll leave you here the pic of today

    A lot of noodles...Pad See Ew

    The place is connected to the donut shop next door. I believe the donut owner's son runs this shop. As mentioned by others the menu is limited but they had my favorite Thai dish, pad see ew. I noticed that they use Chinese broccoli so that was a plus. I ordered a side of rice as well. It was a lot of food when I got back to the office. The flavor of the food was good but it was a little dry so the noodles were stuck together so it was difficult to eat. I wish they would've put more of the broccoli in the dish.

    Exceptional, customer, service, with authentic outstanding food. If I can give 10 stars, I would. If your looking for Thai food, I highly recommend this spot. If your dish isn't up to par, they will make it right customer service at its finest, how it should be. I will be coming back next time I crave Thai food. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

    Came here for a quick lunch while at work and everything about this place blew me away! The person behind the counter was extremely nice and the food was fantastic. I look forward to eating my way through their entire menu in the future!

    Shrimp fried rice

    Very good food been coming here since they opened!!!!! Staff is friendly and the place is always clean, quiet with a good atmosphere!!!!!!

    Wow, what a hole in the wall! Definitely a gem and I am so glad I dropped in. Was in the area shopping at Lowe's and craving some Thai food, so I decided to swing by and pick some up for the family. I have to say, I love Drunken Noodles and usually go to a place near Hollywood in Thai town but THIS is my new go to! Perfect balance all around and just enough spice so it allows you to absorb the mouthful full of flavor in this dish. Besides Drunken Noodles, I also ordered sweet and sour chicken, pad Thai, and shrimp fried rice. It was solid all around. The prices for the portion of food definitely worth it. Also, the owner was super friendly and approachable. He was helpful with his recommendation which was spot on. Looking forward until next time, I'll be back soon to try other menu items and the drunken noodle. Ooh yeah, pretty neat plaza as well, able to get food and dessert in the same plaza as there's a donut shop next door.

    Holy sh*t this place is good! Very well made noodles at strip mall prices. They don't hold back on the spices and seasoning. If you can't handle some nice heat in your Thai, it's not for you. I would have liked more gai lan in my drunken noodles, but all good. The flavor and execution is there. Pico Riverans finally have the Thai food they deserve. Will go back for more.

    Pad Thai Noodle

    This is a small and clean place with tasty Thai food; always made fresh. There's something for everyone, as they offer tofu, chicken, beef, and shrimp. My favorite is #1 Pad Thai; it is flavorful and delicious! Their prices are pretty reasonable and their portions are not small. The guy taking orders (and answering the phone) is nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend this lunch spot.

    Pad see ew

    Chicken bad see ew is not very flavorful and most of the noodles are stuck together. Service was great though. Quick.

    Chicken Pad Thai

    This is an awesome hole in the wall Thai fast food spot. This is a newer restaurant that opened in Montebello and it is is great. The Pad Thai that I ordered was perfect. I also ordered a side of rice and between the Pad Thai and rice my wife and I were both full. The only thing that I would say is to ask for an extra wedge of lime. The flavors were really enhanced with lime and fresh onions and bean sprouts. It was actually refreshing and a joy to eat. Highly recommended.

    Surprisingly, after eating here for the past few years, it was brought to my attention that I've…read morenever actually written a review. For me, this is more of a grab-and-go teriyaki spot. While there is plenty of seating and I often see people dining in, I usually take my food to go. The service has always been pretty straightforward. Most of the employees taking orders tend to be serious and not overly chatty. It hasn't always been the friendliest service, but honestly, I don't come here for conversation, I come for the food. The chicken teriyaki plate is my go-to order, and you really can't go wrong with it, especially if you add avocado. The portions are solid, the food is consistently good, and everything tastes fresh. Overall, this is a great local spot when you're craving teriyaki. Nothing overly fancy, just dependable food that keeps me coming back year after year.

    This restaurant is in the same plaza as the movie theatre so if you don't feel like eating hot dogs…read moreor theatre food, this is a good alternative. What made me try this place was the smell. I could smell the delicious chicken and teriyaki smell from outside. For me I wanted to try the Teriyaki Chicken snd Tofu with brown rice. My teriyaki bowl ended up being like 20+ dollars so I kinda feel it's a bit expensive. They have different sizes so I ended up getting the biggest one. I see a lot of people just ordering the largest one too. So the basic bowl is just rice and chicken or a protein. If you wanted to add veggies, it's a charge. Most teriyaki places would charge like 1-2 dollars to add veggies. I was charged like 5 dollars ish for veggies. I'm not sure if that's because I ordered a large bowl. The food did taste good, the veggies tasted fresh, the teriyaki chicken had a real good char flavor to it and the sauce is good. I wish they had real sauce containers for their teriyaki sauce because they give you it in a sriracha bottle which looks old and a bit dirty. It's not a full service sit down restaurant so there isn't much of a service. You go up to the counter and you pick up the food yourself. Any napkins or utensils you have to ask them for it. None of that stuff is on the table. You also have to bus your own tray. Overall, it's a bit on the pricey side but it taste good. Their teriyaki sauce is really good and it's not too sweet or salty. Would recommend trying it out.
