Well, if you really don't like spicy food and you really like to be your spicy dishes on the sweet side, you might like City Thai. Yeah, I didn't cost my meal at City Thai. Yes, the decor is beautiful inside, but the food quality and authenticity is not so beautiful. I went here with a friend and here is what we shared: TOM YUM GONG: vegetables and shrimps had a kind of limp texture, and the taste of broth was very weak. Hardly one of the classic spiciness or tartness of the tone gum. HONEY GLAZED SHRIMP: Little sweet. The glaze was also a bit gummy. The whole duck I think cost something like $10, maybe $12, consisted of about four shrimps, although I think it's just as good not to waste goo...
Okay I never write reviews, EVER so this is saying something. My husband and I stumbled upon this restaurant MONTHS ago and it's so good I just had to review it. It doesn't look like much from the outside--but this place is amazing! We were the only ones in the restaurant so we had great, fast service. I ordered orange chicken thinking the portion size would be small like the picture looked. Nope! It was a huge order of the most fantastic orange chicken I've ever had in my life. My husband agreed. He ordered a spicy curry and LOVED it. Quiet, clean, nice, DELICIOUS, and very affordable. We'll be back on our next CA visit!!
Fantastic service paired with delicious food! Even though it was about an hour and a half before closing, the service remained exceptional. Our server was warm and attentive, offering helpful advice on their spice levels, which range from 1 to 10, tailored to my usual preferences. I opted for a chicken pad thai and beef pad see ew. Her recommendation for the pad see ew at a spice level of 5 was spot on—perfectly spicy while maintaining authentic flavors. The pad thai was equally impressive, served in a generous portion that provided ample leftovers to take home. I’ll definitely be returning!
Honestly, I would rate it a 3.5. The food was a solid 4, but the service was only a 3. We ordered soup, and one of our dishes arrived just a minute after the soup. They didn’t allow us to enjoy the soup before bringing out the next course. Overall, it was a decent experience, but the timing of the service could use some improvement.

Charming little place for Thai favorites in Old Town Pasadena. The Pad Thai was delicious, although I would have preferred it to be spicier. The menu offers plenty of great options, and the service was excellent as well.
Wonderful atmosphere and friendly service. The food was fresh and delightful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. Keep up the great work!
