Been a long time since I've been here, food is great and hasn't changed. It was delicious. Decor and all hasn't changed. Still at the end of a plaza off Atlantic Blvd/Garvey Ave. I always look forward to the sweet rice dessert that they give after. It's so yummy. read more

I ordered the Pad Thai and Yellow Curry, and both completely hit the mark. The Pad Thai is high-quality and very traditional--the noodles have that perfect chewy texture and a great sweet-and-tangy tamarind flavor without being overly sweet. The Yellow Curry is pure comfort food; the broth is incredibly rich, smooth, and aromatic, with perfectly cooked potatoes and veggies. On top of the great taste, the portion sizes are very generous. You definitely get your money's worth here, with plenty of food to leave you full (and probably take some home). Will definitely be ordering from here again! Highly recommend. read more

This place has been around for years, but it's my first time trying it. Ong Choy: really love the way the Ong Choy is made, it's not too salty and oily. It's flavorful and Ong Choy is nice and crunchy. Definitely a great vegetable selection. Pad Thai: the sauce is way too heavy and sweet. We didn't enjoy this as much as we thought we would. The first taste was good, but the more you have the saltier/sweeter it gets. The lime juice didn't lighten things up either. Don't really recommend it. Crab fried rice: there's a good amount of crab and egg in this dish. The rice is on the softer side, it's not dry and hard like most fried rice. We still enjoy it, the texture of the rice didn't kill the flavor of it. The flavor is very balanced, but quite oily. Tom yum seafood soup: There's a good amount of seafood in this soup. The flavor (sweet and sour) is well balanced. Sweet rice with mango: A great dessert option to finish the meal. It is not overly sweet. I'm not a fan of coconut, but the coconut is not distinctly sweet and overwhelming (so I was able to have some). The sweet rice is chewy and warm when served. And the mango is perfectly ripe and sweet. Definitely recommend it. The service was outstanding! The restaurant decoration is very traditional and unique. They are quite busy when we arrived on a Sunday night. I would give this place an overall 3.5/5 because they can definitely work on some of the dishes. read more

I came here with friends for some lunch. There is parking available in the back of the building. The restaurant is located on the far end of the building. There are plenty of tables inside, and service was really good. I got the lunch special - Pad Thai Chicken which came with other salad or soup. I got the sweet and sour soup. The portion was more than I could eat, so the leftovers were for dinner. After everyone was done eating, we were all given a complimentary bowl of sweet red bean soup. Very good food here! read more

There's plenty of tables from two seats to like eight seats. There's indoor women's restroom and men's restroom is outside of the restaurant. We ordered the papaya salad and thought it was tasty. Also had the seafood pad seew which was well seasoned. Had some scallop and shrimp dish as well which tasted very much like pad seew without the noodles. They had some red bean dessert at the end which reminded me of a red bean porridge. Overall, we were pleased with our meal and plan on returning. read more

We came here close to closing time, but they accommodated us, we apologized, we just had to order quickly. So nice of them! We are visiting from Dallas, and found plenty of parking! We walk in and the restaurant is a bit dated, but it's fine. The staff is really nice. I ordered the pad see ew, and it was a huge plate! It was delicious and I had enough for leftovers the next day! If I come back to California I will come back here read more

This place was excellent! Friendly staff and generous portions. We got the papaya salad which was good. Pad Thai was not super sweet like in other places, wasn't too dry or juicy, it was just right. We also got chicken with mixed vegetables, pad see won, and drunken noodle which tasted great too. Would come back again to try their other dishes. read more

Absolutely delicious! The ingredients here are super fresh, and every dish tastes authentic -- just like what you'd get in Thailand. Our server, Serigius, was fantastic -- friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Here's a little insider tip (not sure if I'm supposed to say this ): if you order the fried rice, ask for crispy pork. It's not on the menu, but it's a secret item -- and it's amazing! Thai Paradise has definitely become one of my favorite Thai spots on Atlantic Blvd. Highly recommend! read more

We came here to celebrate a birthday, party of 10. The service and the food were top-tier. Highly recommend the pad Thai, orange chicken, and the seafood soup. There's plenty of parking behind the restaurant. If you're craving Thai food, this is the place you want to pay a visit to. A+, 10 out of 10. We will be coming back ASAP read more

Sticky mango is great. Thai tea looks like they make it in house, but a little bit too milky and not strong enough. Service is amazing as always. read more

This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the 626! Tastes super authentic, portions are huge, and prices are reasonable. They also give free dessert at the end of your meal. This restaurant has been around for ages. There's a huge parking lot in the back and plenty of tables inside. read more

This is the go to work lunch spot. Service is good and quick. The lunch specials range but I get the Thai basil with tofu extras spicy (level 10) and it comes with an iceberg salad. Dessert is a bean pudding like. Pardon, I don't know the official name, but it's really good. $14 Water tastes a bit funny. Parking is plentiful. Staff is very kind. read more

So glad I came back to Thai Paradise! I hadn't been in forever, but the food is just as good as I remember. The decor is classic and the restaurant was very clean. The service was also great. We ordered a bunch of stuff to share, including Beef Satay, Spicy Noodles, Sweet and Sour Pompano, and Papaya Salad. Honestly, every dish was amazing, but the Pompano was the real star. For dessert, they brought us a free little cup of purple rice. It was so delicious that we ended up buying a whole container to take home. Such a great meal! read more

What We Ordered: -Chicken Satay -Pad See Ew -Tom Yum Soup -Fried Ice Cream We watched a movie together at AMC down the street and were looking for an early dinning. We were craving Thai - it was match made in Heaven. We decided on the Chicken Satay, Pad See Ew, Tom Yum Soup and Fried Ice Cream. The Chicken Satay was our favorite dish. It was well-liked by everyone at our table. The Pad See Ew is one of our favorite Thai dishes, but it wasn't very good and had a strange odor. It smelled like smelly socks or something like that. I saw the Tom Yum Soup on other tables and it looked so cool with the fire. I had to get it, but it proved to be a mistake as none of us liked it either. They served us this complimentary purple rice dish for dessert and it was quite good. My son had never tried Fried Ice Cream and when I saw it on the menu. I had to order it for him despite my wife not wanting him to eat it. Whoops! He loved it as did I! The original server wasn't so good, but they must have switched because the female server who took over was much more attentive and helpful. I wouldn't come back here as the food wasn't anything to write home about. We are still on the look out for better Thai food in the SGV. read more

To start off, portions were huge! Got a lot of their classic and what Thai food is known for. From their tom yum soup, to the papaya salad, pineapple fried rice and their omelette, everything else tasted amazing. Service was excellent! They keep checking up on us to make sure that we got what we needed. The inside and outside made you feel as if you're actually in Thailand. Only thing was price is a little steep. read more

Great service and fresh food. I appreciated the bigger servings and the ambiance of the restaurant

My husband and I ate here on a Saturday evening. The restaurant was almost full. We were seated right away and led to the left side of the restaurant. Service was quick. Our server was really kind and friendly. He checked in on us quite a few times to make sure our glasses were filled and our orders were correct. He did it all with a smile. Our food was good. I had the papaya salad which had the right balance of acidity, savory, and tangy flavors. I really enjoyed it. We also ordered the chicken pad Thai and chicken satay. Again, both were delicious. We ordered mango sticky rice for dessert which was the perfect end to our meal. The rice was creamy and the mango was really sweet. The only downside to our meal, and why this isn't a 5-star, was the amount of gnats. There were so many in the area we were sitting in. One of them landed in our mango sticky rice which was a huge bummer. Other than that, it was an enjoyable experience. read more

One of the OG Thai Restaurant in MPK. Always love to stop by here for their lunch specials. Good portion and affordable price. Ordered the pork pad see ew and the Thai paradise beef. It comes with either a salad or soup and complimentary dessert. Everything was very flavorful and definitely craving satisfied. Very nice and good service. It wasn't busy when we were there. Located across from 99 Ranch Market on Atlantic Blvd. near Garvey Ave. read more

It's fine. The crab fried rice is pretty good. The crab is all stirred into the egg and the crab and egg mixture sits on top of the rice, instead of throughout the rice, so that's a bit different. And probably best that way so you can stir it in as much or as least as you want. I've had it twice tho, and I think the reason I'm not bowled over by it is the quality of the crab itself. Very salty, and like, from a can and in stringy strips. Not a fresh leg of crab meat that you might imagine. I enjoyed the curry catfish. The sauce was very different curry than I'm used to - dark brown. But quite tasty. The catfish does have a lot of bones tho. So if you aren't use to eating honey fish, don't get it. It's a lot of work to avoid not choking yourself. The ambiance is old and ornate. Not modern. Very 80's or 90's spot that screams "Thai food sold here!" They could freshen up the digs. If you really want Thai and are in the area give it a try. But after going twice, I've had better Thai and think I'll explore other locals. Kind of surprised by the high ratings. I guess it's a standard spot for the locals. read more

Came here Wednesday night with family and there was 7 of us total. There's parking in the back which was easy and plenty of accessible parking spots. The place is nice and spacious with plenty of seating and everything looked neat and well kept. We ordered chicken pad thai, chicken lat nah, chicken pad see ew, fish cake, chicken sate, scallop and shrimp and a coconut chicken soup. This was more than enough food and we even had leftovers. Overall the flavors were okay. Nothing too special to be honest but it satisfied the craving! Chicken sate - chicken wasn't dry which was a plus, somewhat tough but it was okay. The peanut sauce was good. Fish cake - a bit tough and salty. Chicken pad Thai - love the flavor and the veggies that came with it. Chicken lat nah - I wish there was more gravy but it was decent! So good when eaten with the vinegar spicy chili sauce. Chicken pad see ew - I just tasted the soy sauce to be honest. It was okay overall. Shrimp and scallop - didn't get a chance to try this but my mom liked the flavor of the dish. Chicken coconut soup - omg so good. I really enjoyed this with rice! Mango sticky rice - the mango was sour ish and the rice wasn't too sweet which was nice. I don't usually eat mango sticky rice but this was okay. Purple rice dessert - this was complimentary and it was really good! Overall the experience was enjoyable. Service was attentive and kind and portion sizes were decent. The price however is quite high. I believe each dish was $16-20? Pricey! There was an automatic 18% tip for our party of 7. read more

Had the 3 flavor shrimp & scallops. Definitely would recommend. Full of flavor I can't wait to go back and try a different lunch special.

Wonderful service, tasty food, and overall lovely vibes. It was my friends bday turning 45 and he requested Thai food because he's never had it, can you believe that!! This place delivered 110%, they bought us a candle to sing to him and gave us a free dessert. This is definitely a special occasion place. They're appetizers are so good! read more

Ambiance: it's located in Monterey Park area, convenient from free way, shared parking lot in the rear, old fashioned decorations inside, it could be busy over weekend nights and might take a while to get seated Service: friendly but so disorganized and very careless, one waiter placed the wrong dish for our table, and the another waiter served other table's food to our table, two strikes in a row, let alone it's hard to get their attention to fix their mistakes Food: plenty choices on their menu, not very authentic Thai food PEPPER DELIGHT - ** bell pepper, onions, mushrooms, and green chili, flavorless SPICY BASIL - **** choice of beef, green chili, onions, fresh basil leaves, bell pepper, spicy and tasty, recommend PAD THAI - *** traditional Thai dish, rice noodles stir fried with egg, garnished with ground peanuts and bean sprouts, surcharge for choice of mixed seafood, mediocre taste Price: moderate portions and reasonable prices, expect $25 per person read more

It's been a hot minute since I've last come here, maybe like 15-20 years? I always wondered why we sparingly came to this place in SGV, probably distance related. So I decided to try out the food once more with parents with a food connoisseur mindset and here are my findings: Ambiance: since I was last there, the interior doesn't seem to have changed at all. The interior gives off a very ornate thai experience Even though we came at a quiet time on the weekend, the staff was very professional and mindful of our wants and food. Here's the food we ordered Seafood Tom yum - It didn't feel that much like Tom Yum, it felt mainly more sour than there was spiciness. We did order light heat to be on the safer side so I'd say if you can handle heat, just go for medium spice. Chicken pad Thai - what I consider as a base for Thai restaurants in America, the pad Thai felt a bit too sweet and saucy. Since it's a stir fry by nature I think the chef added a bit too much sauce to it. Slightly under par for a pad Thai though Chicken satay skewers - is pretty solid for what you can get elsewhere nowadays. Price wise it's on par as well Fried fish fillet w/ apple sauce - surprisingly the strongest of the choices we made. Apple sauce here is julienned apple strips marinated in a sweet vinegar base, similar to the cucumbers you get with satay skewers. It gave me a hint of verde sauce but Asian fusion. The fish was flaky and freshly fried. I'd recommend this again We did get offered a complimentary, what I assume to be a, red bean dessert. I forgot to ask what the price threshold was, but It was very refreshing with the coconut milk and red bean. Good palate cleanser Parking is plentiful as there a lot behind and underground parking. the street is always busy so be careful when turning into the lot. read more

Ordered takeout at Thai Paradise at around 6 pm. There is a shared parking lot with plenty of spots available at upper, ground, and underground levels. These are shared with other shops. When I picked up the food, there wasn't a lot of people there. For my order, I got the Pad Thai with pork. There was a good amount of pork. Cabbage and carrots were more than plenty. Those were fresh and crunchy. For peanuts, there were a decent amount in there. There were hot sauce packets and lemon given on the side. I mixed everything using the plastic spoon and fork provided, but found it was a bit difficult. Overall, it was a solid Pad Thai that tasted sweet, lemony, and a bit spicy. read more

I had been going to Half and Half next door for YEARS and never went into Thai Paradise. But I finally went with some friends and we had a great experience! We were a larger party of 7 but they were able to seat us right away for lunch. The restaurant was charming and spacious. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful! Our server was so nice (he even brought a kids plate set for the toddler with us) and was patient as we made our way through the menu. We ordered the tom ka kai, pad Thai, pad se ew with beef, spicy basil beef, pineapple fried rice, and ong choy. Everything was really good! And they gave us a bonus black sticky rice dessert which was tasty too. Highly recommend a visit! read more

I hate to leave a bad review, but one of the members of my party ordered the spicy beef and it was awful. It caused stomach pain and tasted gross. I'm not sure if this was because of the way it was cooked or if the flavor was just terrible. It was ordered at a level 6 spicy and was not really spicy at all. I ordered the tofu pad thai lunch special and mine was ok. read more
