    Mango Sticky Rice
    Jane K.

    Came here on Thursday night and my friend and I had a blast! It was my first time coming here and I'll definitely come back!! We ordered the green curry level 5 spice, and eggplant with basil & drunken noodles!! Honestly the level 5 spice was not spicy at all! Just a tiny kick! More on the sweet side! The food portions are pretty filling and the Thai tea was soooo good Got to end with mango sticky rice!! We loved the service everyone is so kind! For the ones that love extra spicy I'm pretty sure you can ask for spicier haha Can't wait to come back! I probably won't get the drunken noodles again, but the eggplant and curry was fricking amazing! Oh and the Thai tea was also amazing!!!

    2026.08.28 Friday 11:15 am party of 2 Our first time here, everything was so flavorful. The interior is fresh and charming and service is friendly and efficient. We had the curry noodle - delicious, based on high reviews, tried the pork jerky - very good, and papaya salad- refreshing. Greatly enjoyed our food and experience, would recommend, would be happy to bring others here and will be back!

    Sister restaurant to Basil and Co...just as delicious without a super long wait! I was so pleasantly surprised with my experience here! The interior is beautiful and such a well decorated restaurant. The food is also top notch. We got the crispy tofu to start. Tofu was so crispy on the outside yet so soft on the inside. The sweet chili sauce stole the show as well. So good. We got a tofu pad thai and an eggplant basil with soft tofu. The eggplant basil doesn't come with rice, so you have to order that separately. Both were soooo good. Price was a teensy bit higher than other places around, but this was totally worth it. Quantity and quality checked off!

    When you step into Ari's you forget you are in Glendora, since this is a college town, with fast food row with every single franchise you can think of shoulder to shoulder down one long block that goes on for approximately a short mile. But the amazing thing is a hidden find, Ari's a sophisticated Thai restaurant whose ambiance and beautifully decorated walls welcomes you. It's refreshing to find an extensive menu and wonderful flavorful dining options. We had Tom Yum soup for the first time ordered it mild, but you can also request spicy as well. We had calamari, chicken satay, Rad Na and hot basil chicken. It was quite a lot of food for three of us and we took home quite a bit! Food delicious service always excellent! It's best said in pictures

    After bookmarking Ari's Thai Eatery, I wanted to give it a try since I was craving Thai food. I ordered via phone and was advised it would take about 20 minutes for the order to be ready. I got there around 5 pm and it wasn't too busy at the time. The parking lot is shared with other businesses and was moderately full at the time. For the pickup, food was ready by the time I got there. There was a small hiccup with the payment system but only took a few minutes to resolve. Utensils and sauces were available at the front counter. American Express is accepted as an option. Pad Thai - This was pretty good and leaned towards the sweet side. They included a lime, which helped balanced the flavors. I got the dish with fried tofu in hopes of complementing the next dish. Crying Tiger - This order came with a papaya salad, which I acknowledged over the phone. Unfortunately this was a huge miss. I asked to prepare it as medium rare but some pieces were completely raw. I needed to microwave this at home to ensure it was cooked through further. The flavor itself was also just okay. The worst part was that the entire dish was not cut at all; I needed to do that myself. This was a huge letdown especially considering the price of the order. Papaya Salad - This was a very small ratio and not well seasoned. I asked for mild but I guess that meant not being seasoned. OverallI could only recommend the Pad Thai at this time.

    Found this place which opened only last April 2026. The open concept of the dining area is very inviting. Only a small place but they have several tables. They even have a bar seating area. They have authentic Thai food menu. The servers are also very welcoming. They have TV on one wall which is also good for those who would like to watch sports while eating. At this moment we just ordered but have not tasted the food. I will update my review after eating lunch. Just for the place and service quality, I will give them 4.7. Above average to a the typical Thai restaurant here in San Gabriel Valley area. UPDATE: We just finished our lunch and I would say, the green curry is full of flavor and with just the right amount of spiciness. The Garlic pepper with crispy pork is also flavorful. Our server, Howard, was very nice. I would give this experience with 4.8, added point for the food quality.

    Pad See Ew ($18)
    Jasmine M.

    Love the feel of this place. It's kinda upscale homey. I wish the service was the same. I didn't get that personal experience or helpful vibe. A lot of workers but no personalization for our group. We had four people. No suggestions were made even though it was our first time here. Food was very good, although very pricey: Pad See Ew ($18) Panang Curry ($18) Crispy Soft Shelled Crab - 2 ($31) House Fried Rice ($18) Mango Sticky Rice ($15) Tasty and satisfying but a bit overpriced for me since the food was good and not that fancy. I'm not sure what I'm paying for because the service should be better at these prices. Ample parking.

    I got a chance to return to Ari's Thai Eatery for dine-in to enjoy a lovely lunch in celebration of my dear friend's birthday. Happy Birthday, my friend! The day before, I called the restaurant to make reservations. I spoke with a nice lady who booked us a table at 11:30 AM for a party of 6 people. We were the first customers to be here shortly after they opened on a Saturday late morning. What a nice surprise! They had a Happy Birthday sign on the wall. Perfect for the occasion! Thank you. Plenty of inside dining space. Ambiance was lovely, warm, and cozy. Decor was simple with a touch of elegance. Love the soft yellow lighting... quite romantic actually! Wonderful place to bring family and friends or a date. Solo dining is good, too. We ordered a variety of dishes from salad to jerky to curry to noodles to rice. You name it, we covered it. I also got one Thai Iced Tea which was very delightful and not overly sweet. Appetizer: * Papaya Salad with shrimp - very fresh and crisp papaya mixed with huge shrimps in perfectly marinated lime juice, YUM says it all! * Chicken Jerky - tender and moist chicken, love the off orange color * Pork Jerky - amazing flavor with the right amount of fry on the outside, delish, my daughters would love this dish Main Dish: * Curry with duck - delicacy wins a WOW! Surprisingly good. * Pad Sewe with chicken - tasty chicken immersed in the BEST soft tender flat wide rice noodles that I've ever had, another winner for my daughters! * Pad Woon Sen with seafood - this was my top dish of the day, it showcased great wok flavor and tons of seafood which I love, must get every time! * Pineapple Fried Rice - this was good, but nothing that says WOW though All appetizers and main dishes were amazingly tasty and flavorful. Portions were big. I have nothing, but good things to say about all of the dishes. I would order everything again. Our server was pleasant and offered very good service. She was attentive and took good care of us throughout our meal. Thank you Miss! Highly recommend Ari's Thai Eatery! I'll be back with my Mom, my brothers + their families, and my daughters for more delicious Thai foods and amazing service in a lovely ambiance. What elevated our dining experience was one, our server asked if we wanted our cake to be placed in the frig while we're eating and two, they brought out a cake table along with the cake. So very thoughtful for the occasion. I love it! Thank you Ari's for the extra special attention and care in making your restaurant a great place to gather, dine, and celebrate!

    Tom Kha (Coconut) Soup

    My middle son wanted Thai food for his birthday dinner so we were going to go to Basil & Co in Diamond Bar. But then I remembered that they opened a sister restaurant called Ari's that I've been wanting to visit. We decided to come here since the menu is the same and I knew that the wait would be substantially shorter than the DB location (always a wait there). Distance from my house is only a little bit further than Basil & Co, so no problem there. The vibe and decor is the same as the DB location and I think seats the same number of customers. We were seated immediately upon arrival, but then I saw a table in the back that had "Happy Birthday" balloons taped on the wall so I asked if we could sit there instead and they let us. We ordered our usual favorites and tried some new things: Ari's Chicken Wings Larb salad with chicken Tom Kha Soup with noodles Curry Noodles Spicy fried rice Pad thai Drunken noodles Yellow pumpkin curry with rice Mango sticky rice Everything was great just like at Basil & Co! My whole family rated it 5/5 for every dish we ate. You honestly cannot go wrong with anything you order here. I was so impressed when the mango sticky rice came out, it was so beautifully arranged with the mango sliced and arranged around the sticky rice that was in the shape of a heart. SOO CUTE! They even put a candle on it, and brought out complimentary ice cream for the birthday boy! I love it here, I will be back the next time I am craving Thai!

    Ana T.

    Everything we ordered was very yummy! Nothing was lacking i literally dont know what to write in the teview. The pad thai wasnt very sweet like a lot of other places and the pad see ew was perfect as well. The curry was also better than I expected. Definitely made me addicted to the rice. Everything came out fast and service was friendly. Parking is also easy

    There is wine and cocktails.

For a more modern Chinese dining experience, I think this place is pretty solid. The standout for me was the dried scallop fried rice; wonderfully seasoned and tasted very traditional! The pan fried buns were not very juicy, no complaints about the other items (XLB, garlic string beans, custard buns, pan fried dumplings). Our food came out very quickly! I think that the family style aspect struggles a bit due to a lack of table space/lazy Susan. My party was sat at the very back, near the kitchen, so it was almost unbearably hot. I think the area would have benefited from ceiling fans. Otherwise, if you enjoy traditional flavors in a modernized storefront, this place is a great contender!

You get a choice of 3 meats, so I chose wagyu steak, wagyu eye round, and brisket. I thought the meat quality was great. The broth, on the other hand, was having an off night I think. It had a very strong star anise flavor and the broth could have use a little skimming. And Broth offers a variety of interesting phở variations that I'd like to try. I like that there are so many different Vietnamese dishes umbrella-ed under one establishment. I'll definitely be back.
