Angel Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Glendale

I love Thai food and wanted to explore a new place. The reviews for Angel Thai are good, so I felt confident ordering from them. I will say the food was pretty good, everyone liked the flavor, but the price left a bad taste in our mouth.

I ordered the combination fried rice, the shrimp pad thai, the yellow curry, and the steak salad. Opted for the contactless COVID-19 delivery, everything went through smooth ordering from the website as a first-time customer I even got a $5 off my order. So far so good!

Under the special instructions section on the website ordering page, I asked them to put it on our table set up by the front door. For the delivery guy I left a tip and a note asking him to "put the food here". It was delivered and dropped off on time and hot. All right, things are going smooth.

We got our order it came with forks napkins a copy of the check some chili sauce and all the items correct.👍 And this is where my review goes south. The $20 steak salad as shown on pictures was about the size of a $7 salad. I assume the justify the exorbitant price because they use a budget steak (select-cut probably, due to the tough chewy texture and/or cooking technique).

My other gripe was the yellow curry not served / delivered with any steamed white rice. I don't know if I'm a weirdo or nut job but I like to pour my curry over rice. I assume we all do, so forgive me if this is preposterous or a ridiculous ask. Considering the $14 price tag, you should include a courtesy .50¢ rice for the customer who expects to put his curry over rice. By the time it's delivered it's already too late. So if you don't know, now you...

NEW REVIEW: I love this place and previously gave it a 5 star review, but I need to update my review so that the management is aware and hopefully takes action.

My wife and I ordered the coconut soup. The lady employee didn't ask how spicy. She just gave us spicy soup. I can't handle spicy.

She gave a burnt crying tiger (see pictures) I told her "I'm sorry but I think it's burnt." She said "oh, you didn't tell me you wanted it rare." Just look at the picture.

I still tipped her 15% just because my wife and I love this place.

When they give you bad service, please speak up. 🙌🏼

She was running around for whatever reason when there were only around 6 people in there.

OLD REVIEW: I'll make this quick and simple as we get gotta get that Thai iced tea asap 🙌

Parking is limited but should not be a problem ✅ it's at the back.

Call for pickup ✅

Call for delivery ✅

Dine in ✅ my wife and I weren't asked for a vaccination card or anything like that 👀

Their food is amazing. Try their crying tiger 🙌

UPDATE: I’m pleased to update my review after the owner reached out. They were more than happy to replace my item. I ordered the Crying Tiger Steak and it was the best I’ve ever had! Next time I’ll reach out to the owner if I have any problems.

Normally i like this place…not exactly authentic Thai food (married a Thai man and lived there) but it’s still good during the day. But at night if you’re trying to put in a food order be mindful that they will just throw your food together without much love, especially bc they say they close at 9 but the last order is at 8:30 (had to learn this after a cashier was very "nice nasty" to me when trying to call in an order at 8:30). Today I put my order in at 8 and my beef teriyaki is the most grey and sad looking plate I’ve gotten from them. Like did they really just boil my beef and through it with some steamed broccoli?! I also wouldn’t recommend the lunch special bc the plate is much smaller than the normal portions and most of it is just side salad (aka lettuce) and white rice. Their noodle and fried rice dishes are pretty...
