Randomly stopped by on a Saturday night with my family and was pleasantly surprised. The pad Thai was really good, one of the best I've had and I've had a lot of pad Thai! We also got the pad kee mao and hot basil fried rice. Both were also delicious! I suggest asking for a fried egg on top of the fried rice. It is a small family owned business and the owner is really sweet and service is great. The food is really fresh and a hidden gem for Thai restaurants around the area. I can't wait to come back and try other items on the menu. read more

I finally had the chance to try this place after a few of my friends recommended this place to me! My friends always told me they're pretty busy during lunch so I decided to go try it for dinner. The place had a nice and cozy atmosphere. My boyfriend and I decided to try salmon green curry and shrimp curry. The ingredients were very fresh. It was definitely delicious and would recommend others to come and try. I can't wait to come and try other dishes. read more

Excellent Pad Thai the spicy chicken was very very good service good very clean restaurant excellent food for stars all the way

I heard from work that this restaurant serves good food. It was a disappointment because the food we ordered including pad thai were oily, did not even finish my food. I do not recommend this place, won't order food from this place again. read more

I use to come to Trendy Thai every week for lunch when I worked in the area, but since I don't work around here anymore I haven't been able to drop by. However, after my recent visit, I must say it was much better than before. They recently upgraded their restaurant so it looks really nice and sleek now, and the service has gotten much better. The food was delicious as always they were very accommodating. I ordered the large tom khar and the server suggested I add noodles, best decision ever! The portion of the soup was very generous with a lot of chicken in it and I believe adding noodles is $1.50 or $2.00. Really flavorful, worth a try if you like the strong Thai flavors like tom yum broth. We got a few other noodles and fried rice dishes. The food tastes really fresh and good portion for the price! read more

Trendy Thai - Sooooo yummy - Thai Near Me - Irwindale, California

The area where I work isn't blessed with many (if any) nice sit down restaurants, so it's nice to have this place in the neighborhood. This is a good place to visit to take a colleague out to lunch, but it gets crowded, so you need to get here by 11:30, or you can expect to wait for a table. The food is pretty good, and the service is quick, which is nice when you are crunched for time. Another nice feature is that they will deliver in the local area, if your order is $20 or more. read more

This place might be too easy to miss because they have a big honkin' tree blocking the view of their sign. Just know that if you're next to Mariscos Uruapan, then you're in the right spot. Upon entry, my first impression was: "Wow, this place is super clean!". I was persuaded to visit this spot for lunch when my girl Friday Priscilla P revealed that she was down to treat me for lunch. #HellYeah. She did mention that this restaurant had been a family favorite for take-out, so I was hoping, praying, and wishing that her hyping up of the place was well-founded. What did we get? Tom Yum Goong soup for starters, and it pretty much rocked! In the past, my typical response to this type of soup is that it's "aight". But, Trendy Thai must have the right recipe for me, because I was wishing for another bowl that I did not want to share with anybody! Since this was just for a quick lunch, we finished up with my suggestion of Pad See Ew with Beef. We had some Steamed Rice on the side to complement it, and it was all very satisfactory. Pricing for lunch specials seemed awesome, and the huge lunch crowd that was forming whilst we dined showed that we weren't the only ones who thought so. read more

I ordered Trendy Thai today and they said 10 min so I placed my order, we get there and the waitress tells me that I must have placed my order from the "other trendy thai" because they have no phone orders. I looked at the number they had listed and looked at my phone...it was the same number. I told her but she just looked at me and as we were ready to walk out she runs in and gets our order and says "oh yea, we do have a phone order". Trendy Thai's customer service makes this place very undesirable. read more

PRO Tip for professionals: you'll be cutting it very very close trying to squeeze in a meal here for a 1-hour lunch allowance. The food may be par to slightly above, but not worth jeopardizing professional punctuality. read more

The food I have had here was great. Prices are about average here and the staff is friendly. I always recommend this place. If you want to order to go you might want to call in first. But it is worth the wait. read more

Have I told you that Trendy Thai is the boss locally for Thai food??? Come for dinner any night you want a quiet getaway...this is a lunch dominated spot... Great food... Love the red curry and spicy chicken. Go on now...git!!! Go eat at Trendy Thai! Tell me what you think!!! read more

Super clean and neat place. Very homey feel. ^_^ Some items I tried: Beef Salad - Super sour but really yummy Chicken fry noodle - Big chunk of chicken breast meat and flat noodle. Love it. Chicken Salad - OMG!! Besides the big chicken breast meat, the peanut sauce is my fav!!!! read more

I've only had the wonton soup. It is delicious The wontons are very flavorful so is the broth. They give you some chili for it but I don't use it. Love the flavor of this soup. read more

Since I will likely be moving to this area soon I'm checking out some of the local eateries. Trendy Thai is located in a strip mall just off the intersection of Irwindale & Arrow Hwy. I hit this place at the peak lunch hour and every table was full. So I ordered to-go. While standing there waiting for my order I got to observe the service here. The waitresses would bring out 3 plates at a time and deliver them to 3 different tables. Or bring out 2 plates and deliver to 2 different tables. The whole time I was there it was like that. So people in groups were like...'hey can we get some extra plates so we can share the 1 dish we have so far?' One diner opted to wait til his friends got their plates as well and ended up waiting about 10 minutes. I just found that whole process peculiar. I'm sure the diners found it very annoying. My food took about 20 minutes to get out. Kinda long for take-out but of course they were busy. I would recommend phoning ahead for take-out. They also offer delivery with a $20 minimum within 3 miles. I had the pad thai and told the cashier to tell them to make it as spicy hot as they knew how. It had a good spice level but I wouldn't call it supa hot. The food was pretty good. Some of the other dishes that were rolling out when I was there looked good as well. Giving this place 3 stars on account of real spotty service this visit. I'll be checking this place out again. read more

Had the spicy chicken basil plate...Very spicy request. I was very satisfied. I will return.

The food is so fresh & tasty. You can taste every ingredient added to their dish. The spicy eggplant is to die for.. I could eat it everyday! read more

I am editing my review because I just realized I didn't note that she did refund me the dollar. She is totally right! I meant to do it so I do apologise for my mistake. Having said that, when I told her there were no extra cashews in the dish, she gave me attitude, told me there were extra cashews in it...then told me she would refund me the dollar....again with attitude. Way to make a customer feel welcome! Regardless of it all, the whole exchange made me feel unwelcome. It's just a dollar but her attitude changed it all. As a resident of Irwindale, still not returning! read more

Order the spicy chicken!!!!! Seriously off the chart!!! You won't be disappointed. If your a fan of spicy Thai food you won't be dissatisfied. You can thank me later lol read more

If you are looking for a Thai Restaurant ,Than your search ends ,the food is so delicious, The service is really good.and its very close to my work place. The only thing i dint like about it is its not that elegant in look that's why i gave four star.They should also give complementary soup during lunch hour & some lunch special which they don't offer,other that that I highly recommend this place. read more

Loovveeee this place! Me and my mom travel from DTLA to eat here! Their food is soo good and fresh! Spicy shrimp, calamari and soft noodles are our go to! They recognize us already when we walk in lol I wish they were open on Saturdays like before :( It's hard to go during the week given the fact that we live so far away and work. But overall the best Thai food I had ever eaten (: read more

We stopped here for lunch and the food was pretty good. The crab fried rice was tasty with plenty of crab meat. The phat Thai was mild and not too sweet. The portions are just right. I would come back again. read more

Good food but the soups need to be bigger bowls its like enough to serve a 4 year old. Appetizer size but sometimes I would crave for soup. But it would be dumb to order 2 orders just to get a bigger portion. LOL I work near by so great thing is orders of $20.00 or more gets free delivery. Well thats the good thing but twice it took them an hour 1/2 to get my food. WTF. there aren't too many customers at 11 so i dont get it. But they are quite nice and food is good. My co-workers are hispanic and they love the spicy chicken plate with rice. I love that she gives me all her jalapenos. : ) read more

Went their for lunch as a group . Nobody came to our table to take the order for almost 30 minutes . Then they messed up a few orders , forgot an order and when I finally got mine it was way too hot . I asked for mild and it was much hotter than others that had asked for medium No apologies form the guys and they acted as though nothing went wrong . The food was delayed so much that some of us had to change our order to GO Not visiting this place again. I will rate zero for customer service read more

Friday night in Irwindale and my wife and I have 3 hours to kill due to my daughter's dance rehearsal. We see Trendy Thai and think maybe this our safe house to relax and have a good meal, shoot we have 3 hours to kill. We were very wrong...upon ordering the waiter could not recommend any dish, except 2, which we got, and they were not very good. Best thing about the place is the big screen TV that were able to watch sports on. Place was empty, only one other couple came in and they look like they were friends of the place. Bad choice...stay away. read more

I'm reviewing this restaurant after the second time I've been here, both times for lunch with coworkers. Overall, this place is nothing special. The dining room is relatively small, but we've not had to wait either time I've gone, and the decor is very clean and simple. From what I've personally ordered and what my coworkers have gotten here, I'd say the food is pretty consistently 3-stars-worth of goodness. Nothing that blows your mind, but definitely good enough to go back. Personally, I've had: - Chicken Satay: No complaints; very typical chicken satay with the traditional peanut sauce. I would order it again. - Tenderloin with Garlic Soy Sauce & Green Beans: The tenderloin was just a bit chewy (it was only $10.95, so I didn't really expect anything else), but the green beans were really good. Overall the taste was good and I'd get this dish again. From what my coworkers tell me, the yellow curry chicken is excellent (I'll be trying that next), and the spicy linguine is apparently pretty good as well, although very spicy. The service left something to be desired, and definitely contributes to the 3-star rating. The wait for our food was a little tiresome, and when it did come, it came piecemeal. A dish here, 2 dishes there...I would say that at least 10 minutes passed between the first and last dishes being served. All in all, I think this is the best Thai place in the area (better than Chang Thai), but it doesn't have much competition. I'm sure I'll end up going back in the future, and will be sure to post any notable updates when I do. read more

To-go's were nicely put in a bento box, and service was good. Food is average but they gave a good amount of serving. read more

This review is long overdue, but Trendy Thai has become my go-to thai restaurant. My workplace always caters their food for work parties or meetings and it is always delicious. I still have lunch here once or twice a week, the spicy chicken is the bomb. The service is always quick and friendly, its a family business and the owner is really sweet. The food is fresh and the restaurant is clean. It also looks like they added new items to their menu that i need to try! Some people have grievances about their food being slow during prime time lunch hour and not getting out in 30 mins, but WHAT? If you are going to come to a sit down establishment that fills up at the same time and expect to get out in 30 minutes, go eat fast food. Trendy Thai's food is good and fresh their delivery and catering also never fails. My favorite restaurant in the area! read more

Who drives to Irwindale/Baldwin Park/Whatever as a destination?! To me...it is all the town of "Bedrock" as noted by pulling off the 605 North Rivergrade exit. I expect to see Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble sliding down their Apatosaurus' (fka: Brontosaurus -- see Wikipedia) and ready for some lunch time food and drink. So why not come to Trendy Thai? Decent food, decent price, even pretty tasty if you like that sorta thing. Personally, I like to kick up the heat on my Spicy Eggplant and cool it down with a fermented beverage. But since I only ever drive to the town of Bedrock during the day for making money....the bosses sorta have a policy on the alcohol at work. No biggie...I can get my hot-cold fix elsewhere in The OC but this place is not bad for lunch...as long as you don't make it a habit. Then again...isn't that most places? "Depth in Dining" factor is 1 of 5 (But seriously, what are you really looking for in a Nooner?) read more

I am an eater and I know my Asian food. I have definitely had amazing Thai food and this place isn't amazing but it's really not bad. I go here when I want local Thai food and I definitely agree that it is much better than Chang Thai down the street. It's really a mom and pop kind of joint and the owners are really nice that I like to support them. I usually order the pad sew you or the pad Thai and both come out pretty good. read more

Consistently good food. My favorites so far are Chicken Pad Thai and Chicken Noodle. Trendy Fried Rice is also very good. Close to work for lunch and to take home for dinner. Service is good and the restaurant is clean. They tend to get busy at lunch but worth the wait. I highly recommend Trendy Thai. read more

If you are looking for an inexpensive option for Thai place this spot is the answer. The ambiance is plain but very clean and during the lunch hour it hosts a managerial type crowd from the surrounding industries. read more

My wife and I have been going to Trendy Thai restaurant within the last 3 or 4 months. We had been going to Chang Thai prior. We enjoyed Chang Thai, but the service was just not great. There was one waitress that was not very pleasant. Mind you, this was only at lunch time. We have found that at Trendy Thai, although there is a variety of dishes to select, overall it's still limited. But that's okay. Less is more. I really like the Spicy Chicken, and my wife prefers the Cashew Chicken or the Sweet and Sour Chicken. I've ordered the Curry Chicken, Chow Mein, Pad Thai, and the Thai Salad on separate occasions. Those are all good dishes. Prices are average, and the service is pleasant, when we do dine in. I definitely recommend checking out this place when you are in the area. read more

I ordered seafood pad tai and my mom got pineapple fried rice with shrimp! We both were happy with our choices. It was a little pricy for 2 people but we did have seafood in it. Would probably come back! read more

Very good food, the attention was awesome the place is clean and very trendy considering its location. The meal was great and very good priced. A must if you're in the area. Thank you!!! read more

I prefer Trendy Thai than over their competitor, Chang Thai Cuisine, down the street near Starbucks. Trendy Thai's food is great and so is their service. Their decor is not so trendy but it is clean. I really like the Spicy Chicken, Red Curry Chicken and the Spicy Beef Salad. :) read more

I was in the neighborhood craving Thai food and found this family owned treasure. The service was amazing. Today I had the pleasure of trying a Green Thai Tea with Grandma. The food was equally Devine. Thank you Trendy Thai for the hospitality. read more

Second visit here I ordered pad se ew. Eghh nothing special. I've had better. It didn't have much broccoli which is my favorite part and it was still a bit raw. I usually don't like to put any condiments on my food but this dish didn't have much flavor. Had to add hot sauce and soy sauce.. The price is reasonable.. but I have to say it's my last visit here. 3 stars for the Pad thai I tried last year lol... and location is so close to my apt. haha read more

Wow, didn't think that this place was gonna live up to my expectations, but the Pad Thai was sooooo good! I really liked the noodles they used and the amount of peanuts and veggies and chicken was perfect. The only downside is that it is pretty expensive, IMO. The portion was huge for me but pricing was still high for lunch. This place is still a bit out of the way for me when I'm at work but at least now I know this place has delicious Pad Thai! I hope I will crave Thai food more often to want to try their other dishes. read more
