Modern Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Montebello

I came to this Thai place that I have been coming for many years, and today, the waitress misunderstood our drink orders and had an attitude. All that needed to be done was to change it, and not give her customers a hard time. To avoid any confrontation with her, I did not acknowledge her when she brought our food out. She got upset I didn't say thank you after she brought our food to the table. So she said it to herself, very sarcastically. I asked her what was her problem, she replied that I did not order the Thai tea. I told her I want to speak with the owner and she said she was the owner. I don't understand, how this lady messed up a drink order from a long time customer, who always gets the same Thai Tea drink every time she's there. But there is a guy in Yelp who posted the same problem he had with her, that very same day. If she is the owner I feel sorry for the customers. She finally kicked me out of the place, all because of a misunderstanding over a drink order, which was her fault. Thru the years, I have brought a lot of people to this place. I can't believe something as simple as a drink mix up, which was her mistake, would cause bad customer service. She lacks good customer service skills and...

First time here. I was visiting my very good friend and he wanted to have Thai food.

We walked in around 5pm ,and the restaurant is pretty busy, at least half full.

We ordered Tom Yum Soup, Spicy Combination Fried Rice, Spicy Beef Salad, Chicken Chili Basil and Tofu and Chicken Mix Vegetables. The serving size is big enough to share. We had more than enough food for the 3 of us.

Great flavors, well prepared, high quality ingredients and you can taste the authenticity. The Beef Salad to much acidity. The Chicken Chili Basil is on the sweet side. Even the jasmine rice is good quality and taste. My only complaint is the spice level is mild even when we ordered spicy. Just add more with prik nam pla. In the end, we shared an order of the fried banana with coconut ice cream. I wish they bananas were bigger.

Service is attentive and prompt. We got our food with a little wait. Two service staff was very effective managing even when the restaurant was almost full.

Overall first time impression was great making our dining experience an enjoyable one....

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Modern Thai and I must say, the experience was absolutely delightful. From start to finish, the food was incredibly flavorful and the service was top-notch. I highly recommend trying their famous Mango Sticky Rice - it was the perfect blend of sweet and savory, and the rice was cooked to perfection. The Pad Thai was also a standout dish, with just the right amount of spice and texture. The Beef and Broccoli was tender and juicy, and the Yellow Curry was a delicious explosion of flavors. Overall, Modern Thai is definitely a must-try for anyone looking for authentic Thai cuisine in the area. The ambiance of the restaurant is also lovely, with a cozy and modern atmosphere that is perfect for a night out with friends or a romantic dinner. I can't wait...
