    Seafood Tom Kha. Delicious soup base with chunks of fish and shrimp, calamari, scallop, mushroom. I'd order it again!
    Mana R.

    Ordered for delivery. The Seafood Tom Kha had a delicious soup base with chunks of fish and shrimp, calamari, mussels, and scallop. I'd order it again and looking forward to trying other dishes.

    Combination Drunken Noodles, mild spicy.

    I'm so happy there's a new Thai place right in our neighborhood. The food was delicious! I get most of the same things at Thai restaurants. Drunken noodles is one of my favorite dishes, and theirs hit the spot! We also ordered the Tom Kha with shrimp, spicy basil with beef, and crab fried rice. We loved it all! We were already talking about what we want to order the next time we eat here, which I'm sure will be very soon. We're so happy to support another small local business! We ate here around 8pm on a Monday night. It wasn't too busy and the service was great. The prices are very reasonable in my opinion.

    Hidden Gem! Great food, ambience, and super friendly service. I had the yellow curry with seafood and it was amazing! My new go to Thai place. Very convenient to the Rose Bowl.

    Pasadena Thai Restaurant. Perfect Thai food. Thai food made by real Thai people. Tom Yum Kung soup is really good. Fried rice is delicious and has a lot of portions. Shrimp is a must for any menu. Pad Thai and Pad See Ew are both delicious. They also make Som Tam well. January 1, 2025 Best Thai Food

    As local vegan I'm so thrilled this place is so close. I had the fried tofu, drunken noodles, pad thai and pineapple fried rice. All with tofu and delicious. They even make thai tea with coconut milk. I am bringing all my friends and family. Great service and friendly staff. Nice setup inside and good music. Will be back.

    The tray of egg rolls all went too!!

    I had a 1920's Great Gatsby party & I used Yum ZAAP restaurant. Their catering was really good. The yellow curry with tofu was great. The Green curry with chicken people loved. Their pineapple fried rice was great!! And their eggplant dish was delicious in my opinion!

    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!…read more I was honestly so impressed. To be fair, I haven't been to many Thai restaurants that I didn't enjoy, but this place really stood out. The quality of the meat was excellent, and every dish was packed with flavor. The service was calm, friendly, and attentive. I was actually surprised by how quiet it was because the food deserves a much bigger crowd. What really blew me away was the portion size for the price. The servings were huge and such a great value. We had enough food to easily feed 5-6 people, and the bill was still incredibly reasonable. I'll definitely be coming back!

We got the pad see ew with tofu, veggie spring rolls, "beef" basil with green beans, and a Thai tea with coconut milk. Everything was comforting, flavorful, and had that real home-cooked feeling to it. Just really delicious food that you want to keep eating. The best surprise was finding out that Tuesdays are all plant-based. We had no idea when we ordered, and honestly, what a cool thing to do! The "beef" basil with green beans was so good, and the whole meal left us excited to come back and try more. There's something really special about finding a true neighborhood spot like this. We love this city and love being able to support local businesses. Miya is exactly the kind of place we want to see thrive. We will definitely be coming back! I can't wait to dine in as well.

We got the Yellow Curry Chicken, Thai Tea, and Mango Sticky rice as well (just not in the photos) and those were also a staple. All were phenomenal and had such rich flavor. The Khao Soi Chicken was truly the star of the restaurant and I would definitely recommend this dish for anyone interested in trying thai cuisine. The service is always friendly and the ambiance is very warm and pleasant. It's a very humble and family/neighborhood oriented space. I would recommend to come visit them early (they open at 11:30) since people do line up to eat here. It's a little small in the main area but they do have another dining area on the other side so seating is in fact plenty! There is street parking right out front but if there's none, not to worry there's a lot of parking in the neighborhood so the walk over is relatively short. We love Miya and can't wait to try their other dishes!

The…read morefact that they were participating in Dine LA was a trigger, to make another visit there for lunch. I tried to invoke the dinner menu, but they were not willing. Not a problem, the lunch menu was equally enticing. A 2-course offering for $25. I started with the Thai Prawn Ceviche. This course was wonderfully balanced, not too acidic, also a nice touch of sweetness and plump flavorful prawns. For the main, my selection was the Beef Truffle Wok-Seared Noodles. I was delighted that they were round noodles and they arrived at my table stirred in a dark sauce with sliced beef pieces on top. A small porcelain decanter was also supplied, containing the truffle oil. I poured it over my noodles. The beef was tender, moist and could be cut with the usual provided table knife. The whole dish was a winner, from start to finish. Service here, as expected, was well executed. Need to be aware of the parking though. There is a public garage around the corner that is advertised for this establishment and a few others. Problem is, that Star Leaf validates only for 1-hour, while their neighbors do so, for 2-hours. I addressed this issue with the manager at my last visit and this time too. The answer I got was not convincing to suggest that they care, or will do something about it, anytime soon. Oh well.

I stopped by here around 7PM on a Sunday and thankfully was able to find street parking quickly (bonus--parking was free on Sundays).

It came with chicken as well as two pieces of shrimp, and the portion was very generous. The food also came out in around 10 minutes, which I was very grateful for as I was pretty hungry when I ordered. The cafe is fairly casual and there were several people picking up takeout orders. Most dishes were under $20 which I think is very fair in this day and age. Definitely looking to return and trying some of their other dishes (fried rice looked good, maybe I'll try that next).
