    Nice wall decor
    Jennifer I.

    This is my GO - TO spot! There are many other Thai options near in my area but this is the best! Good pricing / amazing selection / nice staff. I highly suggest you give it a try! You can't do wrong with any of the food options!

    Love this homey thai restaurant in a super random plaza with lots of asian food. The service is great and the workers are extremely friendly and attentive! Food was delicious, we got the pad thai, tom yum soup, crab fried rice and mango sticky rice. My favorite dishes were the pad thai and tom yum soup, they both were super flavorful and authentic. The crab fried rice was just okay in my opinion and the rice in the mango sticky rice was too liquidy I didn't love it.

    Been here on several occasions. Great hole in the wall to give you some solid Thai food. Usually come in weekdays to avoid the crowd. Service is great, the staff is very welcoming and inviting. Big menu so haven't tried all of it but the staples are great. Papaya salad, larb, pad Thai, and pad see ewe was great.

    I recently tried the Pad Thai here, and it was just okay. It wasn't bad by any means, but it felt pretty generic and didn't really stand out compared to other places I've been. The flavors were mild, and I didn't taste anything particularly unique or memorable about the dish. The portion size was decent, and everything seemed fresh, but I was hoping for a bit more depth and character in the flavor. Overall, it's an average option if you're in the area, but not something I'd specifically come back for if I'm craving a really standout Pad Thai. I did however try my boyfriend's garlic pepper chicken dish and I did enjoy that better than my pad Thai to the point he served me some on a separate plate. Staff is nice and welcoming!

    Nice place. Was recommended by staff where I was working for the week. Fast service. I enjoyed what I ordered. I had yellow curry chicken (medium heat) and fried gyoza. Now, every place does heat differently and this place. . . boy a medium really had my nose running. . . cleaning out the sinuses..

    pork pad see ew, spicy papaya salad
    Haley W.

    Great local Thai food, what else can I say. Prices are reasonable and competitive with other restaurants in the area, portion sizes are large, and everything tastes very fresh. They don't charge extra for side sauces like a lot of places do which is probably my biggest peeve so I'm really happy about that! The pad thai is so flavorful and the pad see ew has that "wok" taste to it that's so good. The papaya salad is SPICY so if you can't take the heat make sure you tell them. This is a go to place for weeknight take out dinner. Only complaint is the parking lot is a pain, it's always absolutely packed and hard to get a spot. Obviously not the restaurant's fault so I'm not rating lower, just a heads up for others.

    Orchid pork Thai rice, Orange Chicken, Yellow Curry and Wontons
    Judy H.

    I ordered to pick up orchid pork Thai rice, orange chicken, yellow curry and wontons. The orange chicken was dry and did not appear to be recently cooked (even though it was Saturday and before noon. The orchid rice was good, not great. The yellow curry was very tasty and fresh but I asked for mild and it was pretty spicy. Not much chicken in it. I probably will not be back considering it cost $60 .

    Green papaya salad and spicy basil eggplant w/ tofu

    I ordered the papaya salad and basil eggplant w/ tofu. The papaya salad is delicious. I love the flavor of the dressing. It's tangy and sweet and a little spicy (you can adjust the spice level). The spicy basil eggplant is also delicious

    Just had dinner here with my bestie. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. The small restaurant is very clean and as we walked in we smelled the fragrant aroma of stir fried meats and curry. Smelled amazingly. I meant to take pictures of the food before we ate it....it was so good. -I loved the beef pad see ew, beef was tender and noodles were soft and flavorful. -Thai sausage was new to me and it tastes good, similar taste to the Vietnamese grilled pork sausage. -fried calamari was super crunchy, I just wished the tempura they used was seasoned. -chicken yellow curry was delicious, my friend couldn't stop eating it. I also ordered a mango sticky rice to go. Overall, it's a good spot for some Thai food.

    Pad See Ew
    Lucia S.

    A family-owned Thai restaurant near West Covina gave us a little surprise! They close at 9:30pm, which is great for me after shop. Everything we ordered was decent, but the Panang curry was definitely the highlight. The flavor was rich and delicious, and it paired perfectly with steamed rice. The staff were very nice and welcoming. One small suggestion would be to clean the floor more often when tables are cleared, as it would make the dining area feel even more comfortable. Overall, a pleasant Thai spot and a nice surprise in the area.

    We've been coming to Orchid Thai for a while now and it always hits the spot. Their panang curry is unique and one of our go to's because of the peanut twist. Customer service is always great leaving a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Anyway, if you see Zhu Chicken, you are at the right restaurant! I got a crispy pork rice noodle with pickled bamboo and possibly one other meat. I can't recall. The crispy pork is a must. It's so fatty, but paired with a pickled veggie and that super spicy green sauce from the sauce bar, it was amazing. They give you a vinegar sauce, and you can add as much garlic, cilantro, and hot sauce as you want from the hot sauce bar. I went for a briney, spicy flavor with a ton of garlic and cilantro, and the resulting combination is something I still think about. Rice noodles were nothing special imo. They were soft and slippery, but didn't really soak up the sauce. You just have to get a perfect bite (or in my case gobble) that has all the layers of warm soft noodle, fatty rich meat, and spicy/sour notes from the sauces. I can't really compare this dish to anything, so I highly recommend coming here if you want something unique and bursting with flavor.

However, if you want to try something a little different, there are some "traditional" Kaiping specialties that I haven't seen on menus anywhere else. I've always come with my family and have received great service because my dad knows the staff. They speak my home dialect so I'm sure there's some bias there. Foodwise, I've tried quite a bit and haven't had any dishes that didn't hit the mark for me. Standouts for me are the big claypot yellow eel rice, their specialty roast goose (the 2 dishes just listed may require a preorder but again, my dad usually handles all the ordering), their beansprout with pig intestine, and their egg plant with salted fish. The claypot rice is ordered by the kilo so really is a big party dish but has nice succulent pieces of eel, really well cooked rice, and then of course the crispy rice at the bottom. The goose is very flavorful and not super gamey, it has more of a meaty texture and bite than the younger poultry an American pallette may be used to so word of warning. I really like the beansprout with pig intestine, again not really gamey but very savory with very tender, fatty pieces of intestine (highly recommend even if you're hesitant with intestine). The eggplant with salted fish is also intensely savory with a pungency from the salted fish that may seem like a lot but melds really well with the sauce and overall flavor of the dish. Though I haven't tried every dish on their menu, I've tried quite a bit and can confidently say they'll bring out some tasty Chinese dishes.

LOL It's located in a very random place but there's plenty of parking. It's pretty laid back but I would say can be good for large groups. It's not too loud or rowdy at all.

The lot is big with many spots. Staff is very friendly and welcoming, but Staff spoke limited English. Fortunately, pointing at the menu was clear enough. The food took eight minutes and nine seconds. Fast time! As mentioned, the Beef Rib Noodle Soup ($16.50 - Mild) is wonderful! It arrived picturesque and delicious!! However, despite ordering "mild," the food has a very strong heat; I sweat nonstop as I ate. The broth is rich, savory, and spicy. The meat is tender, flavorful, and falls off the bone. And the noodles are hefty, soft, and springy. It's a wonderful, euphoric combination of flavors and textures. Concerning ambiance, No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights) is surprisingly spacious with its tall ceiling and relatively clean surroundings. However, its walls and furniture look worn down with time. Some seats even had torn holes. Unfortunately, the music uses radio with constant commercials playing in the background. Fortunately, there's a gender neutral restroom in the back. Overall, I found culinary magic at No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights). The food is fresh, generously portioned, and well-prepared. I left full with a bright smile.
