    Pad Thai with tofu
    Minnie D.

    If you're looking for great Thai food, this place is definitely worth a visit. I ordered Pad Thai and papaya salad. Everything tasted fresh and made to order. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I'll definitely be back to try other dishes!

    Cute little spot! I think the owner is Lao. We ordered the Thai-style papaya salad and they nailed it -- it honestly tastes just like Thailand, my country . We asked for medium spicy, and it was a bit spicier than I expected, but I loved it so much. The Pad Thai is super flavorful, and the chicken was juicy and not dry at all like it's often overcooked elsewhere. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Definitely coming back!

    I came here with a friend on a Thursday afternoon not expecting much as Corona is not known for their Thai food. It was located in a small step plaza and parking was very convenient. The manager of the restaurant is the owner's daughter and she was very pleasant and keeps the place immaculate. Everything was nice and clean. The menu captures all of the traditional Thai dishes and everything was made from scratch when you order. The food came out nice and hot and tasted like home cooking to me. It was different from other mainstream Thai restaurants but it was still good. It was not very busy when we went but it was past the lunch hour. It was nice to be able to hear each other talk unlike some of the trendy restaurants these days. If you're in Corona and craving Asian food, this is a nice place to stop by!

    Restaurant is located in a small strip mall right off of the 91fwy. Found it based on Yelp and were hungry to stop by as we allow traffic to stop. Sunday lunch was empty. People were friendly, ordered the following: Crab fried rice -$21 Pad see ew -$15 Tom yum shrimp -$13 Chicken satay $13 Thai coffee $6 Chicken satay and Tom yum is good. A bit pricey for the amount of Tom yum, the other noodle / rice was ok. Nothing worth mentioning. Good service.

    I went here with my mom and sister for some lunch. Wonderful service, they clearly strive very hard to provide the best service possible. The food was delicious, absolutely amazing. I love Thai food, and have tried many different restaurants, this place moved itself to first place on my list. The environment of the place is very homey, and authentic. I loved it here, and definitely will be coming back.

    Food, service, and ambiance were a 10/10 My only thing was that the portions were pretty small, however, the quality of the food was superb! The establishment is well kept and four of us, we spent $78.

    Level 10 papaya salad
    Rodo C.

    Decided to try a new Thai spot. I ordered papaya salad and yellow curry. Both level 10 spicy. They make 2 types of papaya salad Isan style (with fish sauce) and Bangkok style (no fish sauce) They have a tv playing modern American music, and it was pretty laid back. Not too loud. Food came out quick and it was very savory and flavorful type of spice. Not the burn your mouth, I enjoyable type of spice. The papaya salad reminded me of the papaya salad in Hua Hin Thailand- it had a strong crab flavor. I'll visit again if I'm in the area

I've never actually dined in, but I've ordered takeout many times. The restaurant itself is large and lovely, and it even has an awesome fish tank. I definitely want to sit down and eat there one day. The pad Thai is absolutely to die for, and I love that they actually (can) make it spicy, unlike some other places. I've personally devoured the entrée sampler all by myself and will gladly continue to do so. I can't wait to come back and hope you give this place a try too!

We were the only customers there at the time, which gave the place a bit of a quiet, lonely vibe while the staff chatted to pass the time, but they were polite and left us to enjoy our meal in peace~ We ordered the fresh shrimp spring rolls, which were incredibly fresh. My only critique is that they felt a little basic--just vermicelli noodles, carrot, lettuce, and shrimp. They could use an extra herb or element to elevate them, and the peanut sauce felt like it was missing a little richness (maybe some coconut milk?). For mains, we got the shrimp Pad Thai and a curry. The Pad Thai was delicious with a great sauce. The curry flavor was excellent, though the consistency was a bit on the watery side for my taste; I usually prefer it creamier and thicker, almost like a sauce. Overall, it's a solid, low-key spot to hit up when you have a Thai craving~~~

    I was surprised to find tasty Thai food in a shopping mall. The restaurant was not too busy when I…read morewas there but it was close to the middle of the afternoon. The wait staff was super friendly and I loved the decor. We ordered two dishes: pork belly krapow and basil chicken fried egg. They mentioned that the mild spicy was not really that spicy so I got the basil chicken mild and my friend got the pork belly krapow as medium spicy. The flavor of the basil chicken was really excellent but it was way too spicy for me. After trying my friend's "medium " krapow, we realized that her dish was mild and mine was medium. They had mixed up the spice levels between our dishes. Good thing we were doing family style! If you're looking for Thai food and happen to be shopping at the shops at dos Lagos, stop here!

Would not recommend Pineapple Fried Rice and Chicken Satay - extremely bland, the peanut sauce for the Chicken Satay was just okay too. There was also a weird smell while we were eating in the restaurant. Not sure if it was coming from the bathroom nearby (hope not). One of the worst food experiences I've had in Thai cuisine in which seasoning should be abundant. 1 star for the nice service though!

We usually end up driving out to Rowland Heights for Chinese food, so having something like this down the street in Corona is nice. The pan fried shao mai was probably the surprise favorite for me since I've never had it prepared that way before. The xiao long bao wrapper was a little thicker than what I'm used to, but it was still good. Honestly, nothing we ordered disappointed. Food came out pretty quickly too, so even though there's usually a line, it moves faster than you'd expect.
