The food is always excellent. Our favorite lunchtime spot. The service is amazing. Sherry is so wonderful. Highly recommend this spot. They have the best pineapple chicken, curry, and their steak and chicken salad is so good

I really love Pacific rim Thai food. The food is excellent and the service was very fast and knowing that but the people who work there are very very friendly. I recommend you go and order some thing actually order a lot of things because everything is tasty. We ordered that orange chicken, the yellow, curry, chicken, the beef, flat noodles, the shrimp, Tom Yum, and a dish of fried rice with chicken. I have to say that everything was great. This is just kind of a little hole in the wall restaurant but don’t be fooled by the location or the exterior of the restaurant. Otherwise you will be losing out. Let the falcon fly.!

I went there late at night (they were about to close).. Ordered a ginger dish probably done in a big wok. Chose beef. It was very tasty, and for a cheap price (around 11 bucks). If I was to complain about something, it’s that it wasn’t large enough. But I wanted more, mainly because it tasted really good. This option is kind of hidden inside the menu. I am sure they have more popular dishes which tastes just as great! Also, very nice service

Edit:
I have returned a couple of times. I am not sure what it is that attracts me to this place.. But if I was to say only one thing, It’s probably the family vibe that they have here. You go to Pacific Rim and the feeling is almost as you are going to eat in your second house. On the food. I had great experiences and not so great ones. I loved their coconut and their flat rice noodles with beef (forgot the name but the salty one not sweet..). Also, they serve a delicious won ton soup. I would pass on the bbq chicken though or their fried rice. Nothing special there..

In conclusion, probably a 4 for the food but I am keeping it a 5 for the kind spirit of the staff and awesome environment that males you feel at home.

Service and Atmosphere both 5/5, the lady was very nice and attentive. I loved the seafood fried rice, mussels/crab/squid/shrimp! The pad Thai had good flavor but the noodles were undercooked. Probably just got a bad batch. The yellow curry i didn't care for, it had a distinct medicine-like flavor to it.

Ordered takeout. Got the pad see ew, combination fried rice, tom yum seafood soup, and egg rolls.
The soup was excellent. The rice and pad see ew were good. I liked how aromatic all the dishes were. Tasted fresh and not pumped with msg. The containers were filled up so good value. Got leftover for tomorrow.

It's my favorite Thai place! The owner is so sweet and I always come for chicken with mixed vegetables and it's so good! I've had it at other places but they don't make it as good as here. They also have lunch specials. It's a hidden gem!

Delicious Thai food! We had pad thai and curry, plus spring rolls. Excellent and freshly served. The family that runs this place could not be more attentive, warm and friendly. I highly recommend! I wanted extra spice so she brought me a few different oils and Chiles to add and it hit the spot. Right off the freeway so very convenient if you are driving by on the 405. I will be stopping here more often.

We are Thai food fanatics and have tried many places in SoCal. This is the place we come back to over & over again, not only because of the delicious food but because of the superb and friendly customer service. Spotless restaurant, easy parking, fast turnaround (we place our order by phone and it’s always ready by the time we get there), reasonable prices (most dishes are around $11-13), good-sized portions, FULL of flavor, and spicy ACTUALLY means spicy here.

The beef pad see ew - order it spicy - is a must try if you are looking for something on the sweeter side. I’ve recommended this dish to many friends and neighbors and it is always a hit. Seafood pad kee mao is another favorite of mine, as is spicy fried rice with chicken. The latter is made with a delicious sauce and lots of basil, and the chicken can be made as crispy as you want. The sweet family who owns this restaurant cooks great, authentic food and is always happy to customize to our specifications (eg: less veggies, or extra noodles for a slight surcharge). I’ve never tried anything I didn’t like here, although there are so many items I haven’t gotten to because I keep coming back to the three mentioned above.

Again, we’ve eaten at many Thai places and they simply do not compare to Pacific Rim. I’m embarrassed to admit that over the years they’ve come to know our phone number and order by heart, but this speaks volumes to just how amazing their customer service is.
