    Great curry lunch special. Was so pleasantly surprised. Our server was wonderful. Tried the Panang & the yellow curry. Great portion for a nice lunch.

    Too much time had passed since the last time my boyfriend and I made our way to Chao Doi Thai! We seated ourselves and our server was friendly, as usual! :) it was busier than normal but it still had its cozy vibe. We tried the shrimp egg roll to start, and it was so fresh and flavorful. He tried the pad Thai and loved it. I ventured to the Tom Kha and I'm SO glad I did!! The rich coconut curry was perfectly balanced with the savory chicken. We both had enough for plenty of leftovers! For dessert, we ended with the taro smoothie. Can't wait to be back!

    Once again, this place still have great service and foods! The waiter was being funny when we asked for 2 chopsticks. So he brought exactly 2 chopsticks when we actually meant pairs of chopsticks! Haha. We ordered spicy chow mein this time instead of pad see ew and it is also good!! Always felt warm welcome when we are here!

    So I've dined here once and gotten takeout once and both times were pretty mediocre. The only good thing is this place is open later than most of the other Thai spots in Pasadena. Parking was pretty easy to find on the street. As far as the food goes: Pad Thai (3/5): The noodles came out super clumped together and seemed over cooked. Also, the taste was just a little off and way darker coloring than I'm used to. They didn't provide any lime or lemon either for acid to cut the sweetness. The egg appeared to have been cooked separately and thrown on top instead of being cooked together with the noodles. Pineapple fried rice (3/5): The rice was overdone and came out in small pieces so you don't get the chew of in tact rice kernels. Prob was not day old rice or smashed too much during the stir frying process. Taste was ok and came with nice big shrimp and pineapple chunks but rice was not good. Chao doi platter (4/5): This was actually pretty decent and nicely fried. It comes with egg rolls, fried shrimp, crab rangoon, and crispy triangle. Came with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. Definitely not a first choice Thai spot for me but could do in a pinch. Also could be that their other dishes are made better.

    This is a fantastic Thai restaurant located in a great corner (Los Robles Ave and Orange Grove Blvd). I discovered it by happenstance and definitely will be back. I ordered takeout and my order was ready in less than 10 minutes. The Pad Woon Sen (Thai Glass Noodles Stir fried) was definitely the star of the show. Despite being a low calorie food, it was delicious and filled me up. The Pad See Ew, as with every other place I've been to, was amazing. Nothing new here. The Rock Shrimp is a delicious, deep fried shrimp with a side sauce whose formula must be preserved for future generations. It is THAT good. The Sticky Rice was delicious. I always get mine without the mango side but I'm sure even with the mango, it would be amazing. 10/10. Would recommend.

I started…read morewith a lychee martini and 2 appetizers: the bakka salmon in Thai vinaigrette ( I wish I ordered another one of these) and the Saigon summer rice paper rolls. Both were very refreshing, and I really loved the sauce on the bakka salmon in combination with the mint leaves. Since I'm a huge seafood lover, I ordered the Thai royal curry with lobster tail, lime steamed Chilean sea bass and the royal crown fried rice. This was my first time trying curry and I found it delicious, I'd love to visit Star Leaf again specifically for this dish. I really enjoyed the texture of the fish roe on top of the fried rice - I've never had something like this before. I also ordered the truffle wok seared noodles with beef (I liked the mushrooms in this dish). For dessert, I had the Vietnamese coffee flan and the pink mekong. I loved the presentation of the pink Mekong, and the various fruits were yummy. As for the atmosphere, it was very cozy and I took a lot of nice photos in the front of the restaurant by the pond. This restaurant would be perfect for a romantic date night or a lunch with the girls. The service was great - everything was very timely and detail-oriented. Everyone was kind and attentive, I felt very welcome.

I was able to find metered parking on the street; not sure why but I didn't need to pay that day! Upon arriving, we were fortunate that there was no wait time and got seated right away. Their menu was quite extensive so we took some time to browse before we ordered. They had a main menu and also a special menu. We pointed out some allergies to the staff and he helped us work around it. The orders came out quickly and he checked in on us frequently to see if we were okay. Great service! Bakka Wild Salmon - This salmon had a lot of things going on for it, in a good way! The combination of flavors felt very refreshing, especially on a hot day. The lime and basil played a big part there. Crispy Short Rib with Lime - Even initially before coming here, this was the dish that caught our attention. I will admit the portion size was a bit smaller than I expected and was even skeptical when it came out. However, without a doubt, this was the highlight of the visit. As someone that loves savory foods, this really hit the spot. The burst of flavors settles in right away. Truffle Wok Seared Noodles - We wanted to pick this noodle dish as a balance to the protein dishes. It did its job but it tasted okay. Not something that stood out. Slow-Drip Vietnam Coffee Flan - I liked the caramel that was layered on the flan, it was crunchy and added a nice texture. It was a nice presentation but tasted okay. Thai Tea - This was my personal drink. It was a standard Thai tea but came with ice cream on top. It was not too sweet but didn't stand out compared to other items. Strawberry Pandan Lemonade - This was my girlfriend's drink. I had a small sip here but found it was refreshing and not too sweet. However, I didn't really get any pandan flavor, mainly strawberry. When it all comes together, it was a good experience. The interior of the story is more dimly lit and felt like a romantic night dinner, despite being the middle of the day. The dishes had a balance of standard and hidden gems. Everything was more than sufficient for two people to share. Service was great and very attentive. Will come back for the Crispy Short Ribs!

Our server was also so nice and even itemized and split the bill for us, which I always appreciate with group dinners. Also worth noting, they have a no tipping policy because there is an automatic 20% service fee, but they fully disclose that upfront so there are no surprises. I got the bone broth with noodles because the broth looked way too good to pass up, and honestly... the broth absolutely lived up to the hype. So rich, flavorful, and exactly the kind of thing I wanted to keep drinking forever. The actual noodles and beef were a little underwhelming though. At one point the noodles kind of gave instant noodle vibes, which felt like a missed opportunity because the broth deserved better. I almost wish there were different noodle options or honestly just less noodles because I mostly just wanted to sip the broth. We also tried the ube gnocchi, which sounded amazing in theory, but it ended up being a little too creamy for me and I did not get as much ube flavor as I was hoping for. The real standout besides that incredible broth was the chicken wings. So crispy, so tender, and ridiculously flavorful. Absolutely would order those again.

The chicken wings were a bit dry but nonetheless still pretty good. My friends really liked their scallion pancakes & devoured them all.

This time I went for lunch (they have great lunch specials) and the place was busy and buzzing. Note that here they put sautéed purple onions in their pad Thai.

Shame on me for missing out on their delicious food for sixteen years. I seem to recall back then it was more Thai fusion than it is now. But I have consumed a lot of beer, wine, cocktails in the interim so my brain could be foggy on that account. Nevertheless the food we ate was fantastic. I would love to get bottles of their sauces to cook with at home. The summer wraps are largely lettuce and Thai mint - I prefer having a bit more carrot and cuke in them, but I'm not the boss. The spinach peanut with tofu had epic spinach and tasty tofu. The Chinese broccoli in the Pad See Ew was nice and crisp. I guess there is parking in the lot in the back of the store. Seems to be marked for specific stores. I wonder, does the Spa really get that busy they need that many spots? I didn't see anything reserved for Daisy patrons. But I figured most of the other businesses were not open in the evening. Anyway we didn't get a ticket or towed off the lot.
