    My husband and I came here for the first time Friday night. The interior is beautifully decorated,…read morequaint and charming with an overall calming feel. It's super clean but without feeling steril. When we sat down, we noticed a nice woman with her mom who was celebrating her 95th birthday and we sat next to them. They were both very sweet and mentioned the items they got and how good everything was. We basically mirrored their dishes and were not disappointed by our choices. Generally, when you're at a Thai restaurant, you can't go wrong when you take advantage of suggestions given to you by two beautiful Thai people. We started off with an appetizer called "Gold Rush" which are 6 crispy, yet chewy wontons that are cooked until golden and then the dipping sauce was a tangy soy vinaigrette which I initially wished had not been taken away with our plates when we were done but any concern I had was soon forgotten when the other dishes came out because everything was so well seasoned that I never once thought, "I wish I still had some of that dipping sauce". We ordered the Laab Chicken which I always crave because so many Thai restaurants don't serve it. But Spice Season offers it and that might have been my favorite dish. I always order it without the rice powder because I don't like the powdery ground rice. I think it's a distraction from everything else in the dish. Our server didn't blink an eye when I asked that it not be included. Next, we ordered the Pad Thai. It was delicious. The noodles are thinner rice noodles (like angel hair) than what I have typically experienced (more like the size of linguini) but I loved the dish overall, would not change a thing and will definitely order it again. Blazing Basil Beef was the next dish that came out. The beef was super tender that night but it did not heat up well the next day. It got tough, even though I heated it up using a very low microwave power setting. This was in no way a reflection on how they cooked this dish because it was perfect when it came out. I will try the Heaven Scent next time or Spice Season Steak in lieu of Blazing Basil but that is not to say I would never order it again - far from it - but we are excited to try other dishes as I have noted further below. Rounded everything out with the Pineapple Fried Rice which I crave just as much as Laab but I'm usually nervous to try it because so many times the rice doesn't have any flavor, or not enough pineapple juice but not the case here! It was delicious! D'oh! I forgot to mention the Matcha Cheesecake which was heavenly. It took me several days to finish that off and unlike the Blazing Basil, it held up fantastically in the fridge for the next few days which is how long it took me to finish it off. Honestly, everything we tried was incredibly fresh, bursting with different flavors and cooked the way we enjoy our Thai food. We were not rushed, and the person who took our order said that we had ordered plenty of food which I appreciated - we do tend to over-order but that's because we eat the leftovers but I thought it was nice that she gave me the "that's probably enough" sign. Last thing I will mention just to help others on the spicy scale, we love our Thai food spicy. I read some reviews where people said the food was not spicy enough. We told our server that we like spicy and that we would leave it up to her - she said that everything would be a 4 out of 5 on the spice scale and while it was perfect for me, my husband thought it was just a tad too spicy but I think he's just out of practice. ;) We will probably go with 3 out of 5 next time, unless I'm alone. Then I would go back to 4 on the spice scale! I'm excited to try the Papaya Salad, Lime Steak Salad, Tom-Yum Fried Rice, Heaven Scent, and Lemongrass Soup. They definitely have a wide variety of food offerings, including things I've never heard of or seen. Something for everyone!

    Went during the lunch rush. I believe there was only 1 server but she managed to give each table…read morethe same amount of attention and care. Very clean. Trendy. We got Gai Wings, steak and the aloha curry. Everything was 10/10. This is my new favorite Thai restaurant.

    Solid 3.5 (A-Ok)…read more This is a cute restaurant on Foothill, super close to Descanso Gardens. PARKING. There is a huge lot out back. A few spots on the street too. SEATING super comfy space inside with great views of the surrounding mountains. There are plenty of tables for bigger parties to push together. FOOD Lots of options for the vegetarians in your party. You can omit egg for some to be vegan. Adding Gluten to your dish will cost more than meat option? (-1 Star). Tasty dishes. Spice level is very good. Spicy = spicy. The recipes are a little on the sweeter side here. Overall nice flavors and well cooked greens. Blistered cherry tomatoes in Pad Kee Mao were excellent. PORTIONS are pretty small. **This was not a "lunch special". I finished the Thai iced tea in one long sip. (Small glass, filled with ice when tea was done) SERVICE Fantastic. Both servers that came to the table were super friendly and attentive. ** We were the only people in there until we got the check. One other patron was picking up an order to go. PRICE Perfect "date lunch" prices for the portions. The restaurant atmosphere and convenience close to Descanso Gardens makes it a great choice.

    As a serious Thai food enthusiast, I often find the best gems in unassuming, non-fancy…read moreestablishments, which immediately raised my hopes for this place. The cuisine overall was good, but certainly not elite. However, there is one major exception: the Crab Fried Rice. This dish was truly exceptional and single-handedly justifies a four-star rating. It was rich, flavorful, and perfectly executed--an absolute must-try that saves the meal. Unfortunately, the rest of the meal was distinctly average. The Yellow Curry was just that: average. I've definitely had richer, more complex versions elsewhere. The Egg Rolls were the biggest disappointment and desperately need work. They lacked any real flavor depth, making me question if this is simply how Thai-style egg rolls are prepared, or if the recipe is just weak. Crucially, the accompanying sauce did nothing to elevate the bland filling. On the positive side, the service was attentive and the ambiance was genuinely "kozy," living up to the name. The main practical drawback is the parking situation. While validation is offered for a somewhat distant structure, we opted to pay for metered parking right in front for sheer convenience. I am willing to return, but my next visit will strictly involve exploring new menu items alongside a repeat order of that phenomenal Crab Fried Rice.

    This used to be my go-to lunch spot because the service used to be prompt and reliable…read more Unfortunately, this last visit was a completely different experience. We were seated, our order was taken, and then we watched multiple parties who arrived after us get their food first while we waited over 30 minutes. Not once did our server check in, explain the delay, or apologize. The lack of communication and basic attentiveness was incredibly disappointing. After this experience, I won't be returning. You've lost a regular.
