    First time ordering takeout here. Tried Thai food with an open mind and loved it! Definitely coming back.

    Monica R.

    Please, if you love Thai food, this place is amazing! We tried different plates, the fish was delicious, the service is really nice and the ambiance is totally casual, go with your spouse, family and friends. The price is $ggggoooooddd! My friend who never tried a Thai food, loved it.

    We are always on the hunt for new spicy meal serving restaurants. We had cravings for some Chicken Pad Thai which is my favorite Thai dish. The restaurant is a small hole in the wall joint but with comfortable seating and great service it's well worth a visit. The food came out just the way we like it and it was spiced up hot without being overwhelmingly mouth burning. Look to spend less than 40 bucks for two people which was enough food to fill us up.

    Green curry Dumpling with curry sauce
    Stephanie A.

    Food was pretty good. My favorite honestly was the entire experience. The dumplings were okay, I wondered if they were home made bc they tasted a little Reminiscent of Costco dumplings in green sauce. The salmon with veggies and basil was good. Tom yum was delicious but too spicy if you're sensitive to spice. Start with mild, lol. service was okay, they were a little busy but some servers weren't working. Ambiance is nice, it's a like a mom & pop spot in a lot.

    Cute drink holder!

    Cute little hole in the wall spot cranking out traditional Thai fast and hot. I ordered to go and got a cute drink carrier and a solid sized serving. The spicy basil chicken was fantastic!

    Mango Sticky Green Rice

    Great food. We are very picky with Thai food. They have other Asian dishes too. The pho is strong with all the sides. This families recipes are delicious. The prices are great. The egg fried rice is my mom's favorite. That mango sticky rice- a must!

    Shrimp Pad Thai, contains peanuts

    Really great Thai food. 10/10 had the shrimp pad Thai once and have to come back for more!

    The food here definitely hits the spot. They have Vietnamese & Thai dishes. The prices are reasonable and the portions are large. Free parking which is great. The restaurant itself is a little small, just 5 tables, but the service is quick and friendly. The only thing is the kitchen is in the front of house and it gets really loud. If you're trying to have a conversation, make sure to project your voice lol. Will be back!

    Crab Rangoon Sticks
    Joe S.

    While in Glendale, I had a craving for Thai food and this place was nearby and had decent reviews. When I arrived on a Sunday evening, I was surprised to find the place empty. I was seated quickly and proceeded to order a couple of things from their Thai/Chinese menu. I chose the Crab Rangoon Sticks and Pad See Ew with chicken. I rarely eat Crab Rangoons but several reviewers mentioned how good they were so I made an exception. The menu had two versions, wontons and sticks. I was told they were identical except for the shape so I chose the sticks since that was new to me. They arrived in lightning speed in a small wire basket. At first glance I was shocked at how skinny they were, like pale crispy cigarettes. They came with a clear-ish sweet dipping sauce. They were interesting, a bit on the chewy side, with a crispy exterior and a distinct cream cheese flavor but virtually no crab taste at all. I ended up adding Sambal to the dipping sauce to add a little spice and to cut the cloying sweetness. The Pad See Ew was run of the mill with nice wide noodles in a light brown sauce with fresh Chinese broccoli and sliced chicken breast. It had that distinct char flavor that I expect. My only complaint is that the slices of chicken breast were cut with the grain instead of against so they were a little tough. Overall it was an okay meal. Not great but not bad. I'll pass on the Crab Rangoon Sticks but I'd order the Pad See Ew again, perhaps with a different protein.

    Best thai food in Glendale and LA area, plus the employees are very nice, specially Prang, 100% recommended

    Curry Udon
    Shelley D.

    I've never thought to mix curry and udon before, but let me tell you, it is delicious! While mostly a take out place, you can eat in as well. I went in and my husband had the pad thai sukhothai with crispy pork which was really good as well. They also have pho and banh minhs as well. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes.

    Thai Pineapple Fried Rice
    Christian E.

    Pad Thai Bistro is amazing! Every dish I've tried has been delicious, but the honey walnut shrimp is an absolute standout--big, crunchy shrimp paired perfectly with the walnuts, it's a must-try! The pineapple fried rice is also incredible, with the seasoning being the main reason I'll be coming back again and again. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for fantastic Thai food!

Recommended dishes include the "Special Pho/Beef Rice Noodles." The atmosphere is relaxed, suitable for casual dining.

    I usually don't leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves to be noted. We visited AJ…read moreNoodles last Saturday and ended up leaving after waiting an hour with no food because they were prioritizing online orders while we sat there. We arrived at 4:25. As soon as we were seated, I asked if I could place our order while we waited for the rest of our party, since I already knew what we wanted. The server said no--we had to wait until everyone arrived. Fair enough. Our friends arrived about five minutes later, but it still took about 15 minutes before anyone came over to take our order. The restaurant is small, and there were only about three other tables with customers, all of which were already eating. Thirty minutes after ordering, we still hadn't received a single item. My friend suspected they were fulfilling online orders first, so I went up to ask how much longer it would be. The response: another 30 minutes. At that point, after already waiting 45 minutes, we decided to leave. If the kitchen was that backed up, why not let us know? Why refuse to take the order when I first asked? Or at least warn us that the wait would be over 45 minutes? The food is good, but not worth that level of disregard for customers who are physically sitting in the restaurant. My friend later told me she's had issues with their customer service in the past as well. This was very disappointing, and we'll be choosing other ramen places from now on. It really seems like they're understaffed for the amount of dine-in and online orders they're trying to handle. Another person in the kitchen might make a huge difference.

Unfortunately, my second visit wasn't the best experience. When I walked up to the register, two servers completely ignored me. I understand it can get busy, but a simple "we'll be right with you" would have gone a long way. While I was waiting, the phone started ringing. Instead of acknowledging me, the waitress walked directly in front of me to answer it even though she could've easily gone behind the register. It came off as dismissive, especially since she wasn't doing anything else beforehand. That interaction left a bad impression, and it makes me hesitant to come back despite how much I enjoyed the food the first time.

Their pricing is really great, the broth is nice and rich, and they give you a good amount of meat and veggies. Some may find that the broth has a teeny bit of oil but I personally like it. I would say though, after having done both take out and dine in, nothing beats fresh Pho at the restaurant. SERVICE 10/10: Today was my first time really dining in and our server, Louis, was the absolute sweetest. He was really attentive and helpful! AMBIANCE 10/10: The restaurant is really cute, lots of seating options, good lighting, and it gives off a comfort-cozy vibe which I love! NOTES: - There is street parking... HOWEVER turns out there is a parking garage on the second floor. If you enter through the alley way you will find an entrance and the ticket guy is there until 4. Nong Lá does offer validation even if he is there.

    Our mistake was trusting Google on where to get bún bò Huế in LA…read more We ordered bún bò Huế, but the noodles were soggy and the broth had none of the rich, signature flavor it's known for. The rib and tendon "special" phở had an overwhelming anise taste, giving the broth a strange flavor. The tendon was overly soft, almost melting, which isn't how it's supposed to be. I left it untouched. My kids didn't even eat it. The bún thịt nướng was also off. It was made with the thick noodles used for bún bò Huế instead of the proper vermicelli. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend this place if you're Vietnamese or familiar with authentic flavors, it likely won't meet your standards. Save your money. Service was nice in the beginning, but they didn't even check back with how the food was after delivering them. So Disappointing!
