First time here. Went with friends that have been here before. It's been around for years. All our dishes were very good. Shared eggplant with garlic, chili, bellpepper, onions, basil and tofu, red curry with chicken, pad thai with chicken and fried rice. Dessert was mango with sticky rice. Will definitely be back.

No carts, but check-off sheets for what you want and the servers are wired so they are calling in your order even as they walk to ring it up. Food arrives as it is prepared: piping hot, dish by dish. Because we know our way around dim sum, we stuck to the traditional items on the menu: shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, etc, and tried the fried carrot dumping, surprisingly delicious. Our party of four ordered WAY too much because they believe in the entree type of order. We also split two soups: the hot and sour and the dumpling kind. Both well seasoned and turned out. Also spicy salt and pepper fried calamari (exquisite; get this, though one does not usually see in a dim sum restaurant) and chicken lettuce wraps, which I would not recommend because it does not seem dim summy. The fried sesame balls with sweet red bean paste are one of my husband's taste tests, and these did not disappoint, though not the best we've ever had: a little large and too little bean paste, but served piping hot. Note issues about seating. We arrived about 8 and scored the only open table. Not sure I would try this place at lunch time. Sure the carts are better, but our service was excellent.

I read about this spot on TripAdvisor because I was looking for good Thai food near Caltech. It did not disappoint! The portions were very generous, the food was delicious, and the service was prompt and friendly. As a New Yorker, I found the prices very reasonable. And oh, my: the mango and sticky rice was among the best I've ever had so be sure to order it is you're lucky enough to visit this place when it's in season. One suggestion: consider making making a reservation as it seems to get pretty busy at dinner time at least.

We had to go. This is the original Panda #1. The place all the other Pandas express come from. Extremely good food (try the orange chicken) and friendly service. We went on Christmas day. They serve an incredible Sunday brunch too.

A choice of 3 different style ramen, with many options for added ingredients and a number of other menu items (including dessert). Draft and bottled beer. Very friendly and efficient staff. Casual setting. If a line, it moves quickly. Highly recommended.

I make it a habit of staying in Pasadena each month JUST to dine at Osawa. It was a mess last Sunday. They sat us quite late for our reservation, when we were finally seated well after our 6:45 reservation they were out of ALL the whole fish, the bagna cauda and more. The portions were noticeably smaller and the staff clearly overrun. I am so sad as finding this quality of Japanese food is tough - I donât know if I would return.

Since my trip to Thailand where I tasted fresh authentic Thai food. I haven't been able to enjoy Thai food back in the U.S. I was ruined. Everything tasted just like a poor imitation of real Thai food. But this restaurant has been the closest to authentic Thai food. The food we ordered was fresh, tasty and the service was good. I recommend this restaurant.
