The food wasn't as great as I remember few years ago.
The pad Thai was super sweet, a lot of sauce and soggy! The soup Tom Yan was in a bowl instead a pot with fire, fried calamari had too much batter and thick, house special rice wasn't flavorful.. pretty much our lunch wasn't tasty and no Thai flavors.. I am disappointed about the service too, not as friendly . Ambiance is nice and kids friendly.. too bad that the food wasn't great.
Be the first to ReplyHad lunch here today with a friend.
We have not eaten here in over 12 years. Only two other tables with diner's at 12:00 lunch time. Waitress gave us the regular menu. No lunch special menu or the drink menu. I had to get them myself from a small table. The men's room needs better maintenance. Ordered the Fried calamari, Green Curry with Pork, Chicken Sate. Cat fish fillet and a Coconut Shrimp soup. The Calamari was too chewy. We returned it. We ordered the Chicken Sate. It was good. TheGreen Curry I ordered it Mild. The Pork was very tough, like shoe leather. I could not eat much of it. I ate the Eggplant and vegetables with the brown rice. The food quality has really gone through some changes, but not for the better. Ambiance and Service was subpar. The waitress was not very friendly. Parking: Shared parking lot. There are better options and a better value in the greater San Gabriel Valley. We spent $85.00 with Tip included for this experience today. Overall Rating: 2 Stars
Be the first to ReplyThe food was yummy and the outside is nice.
But the service was not the best...when we ordered the food it came, but they gave us orange chicken but we didn't order orange chicken and then the waiter said that my son ordered it but we heard that when he ordered he didn't say orange chicken. So the service was not the best, the food was good, and the outside is nice.
Be the first to ReplyI had not been here in 20+ years!! It brought back a lot
I had not been here in 20+ years!! It brought back a lot of memories. I came by to try it out again to see if the flavors had stayed the same. I had ordered the Tom Yum soup with mushrooms and shrimps. It had that complex hot and sour kick of vinegar taste with the lemongrass flavor and the kiffir lime all blended in; the soup was full of flavor from the shrimps too. And I had also ordered the shrimp pad see ew and beef satay, which came with pickled cucumber slices and peanut sauce. The wide noodles were perfectly cooked and flavored with broccoli and egg mixture. And the beef satay was grilled perfectly, as well. It was everything I had remembered. I had service from two guys who were great checking up and making sure I had everything I needed. 5 stars for their great service, delicious food, and clean, well-lit ambiance. Thank you, Saladang team, for a memorable meal!!
Be the first to ReplyWow, what has happened to food quality at original
Wow, what has happened to food quality at original Saladang? This used to be the 'go to' place for Thai food. Sad to say that this has changed dramatically. I don't know if it was because it was a Wednesday, or the regular chef had the day off. My friend barely touched her food. My cashew nut, basil w/mixed fish was average. Sauce was watery and not very tasty. My how the mighty have fallen. I won't be returning.
Be the first to ReplyI always loved this place, it was a bit of a distance
I always loved this place, it was a bit of a distance away, but the food was always fresh and delicious so it was worth it. However, I ordered takeout last night and picked it up about 1/2 hour before closing. The chicken was dry and the Pad See Ew noodles were all broken and stuck together. The food tasted different, nothing like the quality they were known for. I can't help but think they threw together leftovers from the day rather than make a fresh batch since they were so close to closing. I gave a 2 star because the veggies and sticky rice were good. Sorry to say i won't be going back and you should steer clear as well!
Be the first to ReplyWe went to Saladang for lunch.
Be sure to order appetizers first, and maybe soup . Don't order the Entrees together other it all comes out at once and you don't really get to enjoy all the dishes because you are rushing to eat before the food gets cold. The food was very good , however the young gentleman had no etiquette and just dropped off the menus to begin without even saying anything. We had to ask so many times for water, and other condiments. Overall there was no greetings or explanation of the menu. They need to work a lot on their customer service. The service SUCKED! They also need to upgrade their chairs, the seat pads etc!
Be the first to ReplyI've been a patron of Saladang for many years.
The Tom Yum soup is fantastic. On my last visit which was a take out order, the food quality really took a step backward. I ordered a yellow curry with chicken that was so bland that I thought it was chicken soup. The chicken ginger saute also suffered. They used fatty chicken thigh meat instead of chicken breast and once again they food was bland. The lesson learned is that this place is much better in person. Hopefully it will be better next time.
Be the first to ReplyI've been trying to find amazing pad thai in Pasadena for
I've been trying to find amazing pad thai in Pasadena for awhile now but after eating the beef pad thai here, I'm just grateful that the other restaurants I've tried have been average/good. The pad thai I had here (takeout) had none of the usual flavors I love and instead had a bland, almost gross taste that made it barely edible. The beef was the best part and even that had a rubbery quality to it. They give a lot of egg with it but it's mostly flavorless. I hope this was a one time quality stumble but I'm not paying the high price to find out.

Food was great and service was exceptional. Will definitely recommend this place and will be back
Be the first to ReplyWe've been going to Saladang since they opened in the
We've been going to Saladang since they opened in the 1990's. Back then, they were Pasadena's "it" restaurant and one of the best Thai restaurants around. The service, the food and the atmosphere of the building were amazing and they enjoyed a level of success for more than a decade that saw the restaurant packed with people every day and night on weekdays and especially on weekends. Fast forward to today and there are some stark differences. The once trendy looking decor is now worn and needs updating badly (holes in the faded tablecloths immediately make this very clear). The restaurant (and its sister restaurant, Saladang Garden) is now almost empty most of the time, even on weekends. The service has lost the friendliness and welcoming smiles of the original staff. Today, when we asked for our leftovers to be boxed-up, the waitress just dropped off containers at our table and we had to clumsily package everything on our own, even though we were only one of three tables being served at the time and waiters were standing about. The biggest difference from the old days is how inconsistent the taste and quality of the food has gotten. Some days everything is bland, the sauces are watered down or the wrong color and the beef is extremely tough and chewy. You can always tell the food won't be good by the lack of richness in the colors of the food. Sometimes the pad Thai is beige or light brown instead of being sauced nicely in an orange hue. Other times, the beef in the Basil and chili beef is cut large and the sauce is so watered down it doesn't cling to the overly large and chewy chunks of beef. Today, for Saturday lunch, the food was great. When Saladang prepares their dishes to their full potential, they do Thai as good as the best of them ((including restaurants in Thai town). The yellow curry tasted perfect with perfectly stewed pieces of tender chicken. The Basil and chili beef was also very flavorful and prepared well. The pad Thai stood out from all the other pad Thai's in a town full of them. The service today was a bit lacking but hopefully that too can swing to the good when the staff rotates for dinner. I really hope that Saladang can once again find the success it once enjoyed. Today reminded me that at their best, Saladang is still capable of being the best Thai restaurant in Pasadena and even in all of LA.
Be the first to ReplyDon't reserve for party more than 10.
They got bad costumer service and greedy business practice . They will loose your reservation and charge extra, when group is more than 24!. Don't even deserve a !!!
Be the first to ReplyReally disappointed in this order.
The yellow curry has no flavor or depth. And the vegetable egg rolls were mushy inside and no flavor as well. Ordering Thai food with no depth of flavor is the biggest let down.

The Thai Food here is pretty good! I'm usually not a fan of Thai Food (spiciness), but today's lunch was tasty!Yelp Check-in: Free Drink, five mini fried bananas or Gyozas. I would personally get the drink (Thai Iced Tea or Gyozas. The Fried Mini Bananas looked adorable, but it doesn't seem feeling.Parking: They have their own lot as well as street parking. Thanks goodness for my handicapped parking.Here are the foods ordered:My three $16 Chicken Sate was my plate, pretty tasty! Served with Vegetarian Eggroll, Steamed brown rice, pickled cucumbers and peanut dipping sauce. I ate one skewer and took the rest home for dinner. I was also served a mixed salad dressed with peanut sauce.My brother ordered the $14 Chicken Pad Thai. His meal also came with a mixed salad too.Drinks: We both had two Iced Waters which was cold and refreshing.Service: The Staffers are friendly and informative with the cooking, especially, if you're not in to spicy food. Service is quick and delicious. I would definitely come back here again.
Be the first to ReplyReally enjoyed dining here.
I came with two coworkers and we got three dishes which we shared family style - tofu yellow curry, beef pad see ew, chicken pad thai and loved all of the dishes. I'll be back.
Be the first to ReplyOne of my favorite Thai restaurants in Pasadena! Best
One of my favorite Thai restaurants in Pasadena! Best salad/spring rolls hands down. Pillowy, fresh, and delicious sauce. The menu is unique and has items you can't always find at other Thai spots- like beef satay -yum. Good quality food. My only qualm is that ordering takeout is difficult- you can't use postmates only DoorDash- sometimes it's closed and once I ordered and I never received my order because of some glitch. They also sometimes have items I typically order missing from the DoorDash menu and so I had to call to have them add it before proceeding to order. Dined in yesterday for the first time in a long time and was surprised to hear they close at 8!!! It was also pretty quiet which was surprising because they said they were squeezing our party in. Regardless, food was solid and service was good. Will still continue to dine at this establishment but really hoping they make it easier to order and dine in!
Be the first to ReplyI love the lunch specials, they end at 3pm.
I also like the trendy look inside the restaurant & staff is always attentive, we have been coming here for at least 4 years & I still crave the yellow chicken curry with brown rice & the cashew chicken with a little chili & white rice. Among so many other dishes ..
Be the first to ReplyI love the food here and have for years.
It's consistently delicious even though the atmosphere is lacking and the service is simply standard. My favorites are the yellow curry chicken and pad kee mow. The yellow curry is unlike any other I've ever had and the chicken is always tender. The egg rolls are mushy inside and lack flavor. The sauce was not sweet enough.
Be the first to ReplyI remember when this place was the go to Thai food
I remember when this place was the go to Thai food restaurant. I recently came back thinking it was going to be the same...it's been 5 years. Sadly, the quality has really gone down. The papaya salad had only papaya and peanuts...no shrimp....nothing...just very basic and plain. The lime juice on the papaya salad was not even fresh squeezed...canned lime juice. The chicken smelled a little gamey...not fresh. The condiments, which are important, were lacking. I asked for pickled Thai peppers, and they gave me just 5. Just 5 lonely pickled peppers for the entire 4 dish meal. Kind of sad. It was not horrible...just mediocre.

I have to start by saying the food here is wonderful! I would definitely go back and know that each dish is remarkably delicious. I want to go back because I've only been there once and my first experience there was not pleasant. When we arrived, we were seated quickly in the outdoor patio. The waitress came over to our table and literally threw the menus on to the table. We thought maybe it was on accident but when she came back to place the flatware, again she tossed it on to the table. When she came over to take our order she was very short and abrupt. When the drinks arrived she placed them on the table and left. When the food came, we asked for chili and she told us to ask another waitress. It was like something I've never experienced. There was a private event inside the restaurant so I'm wondering if perhaps she was busy tending to tho their party. Either way, the food was remarkable. We were all a little surprised by the service but the food was so good and the company was just right that we had a great time regardless. Street parking is limited but there is a small parking lot adjacent to the restaurant. The outdoor patio is large and offers seating under umbrellas. Indoors is also very nice with high ceilings. I'll be going back for sure.

Flavorful dumplings, quality salmon in curry, and good size portions. We wish we lived closer.

Always our go-to for weekday takeout! 20+ year customers for a reason. Sure there have been less than 3 star meals but they always come back up.

Went today for lunch on a whim to meet a friend that I had not seen in a while. Had not been here in such a long time, so we were super excited.Food is still yummy!Buuuut .... the service was atrocious. We waited such a long time for everything. They were not busy. The staff working seemed annoyed by us. There was nothing redeeming about them. I was so disappointed. It truly ruined the experience of eating out. Food is still deelish though---but maybe take out is better?
Be the first to ReplyGreat place in Pasadena, easy location and great parking!!
Great place in Pasadena, easy location and great parking!! The servers were very attentive. Plenty of food to choose from! Sizzling beef had a great taste and the seafood soup!! Must try!!
Be the first to ReplySaladang was in my regular rotation when I used to be local
Saladang was in my regular rotation when I used to be local to the area. Visited for the first time in a long time and was slightly disappointed overall.The calamari was crispy but the cooking oil flavor was almost baked into the batter, which was a distraction from enjoying the calamari itself. The sizzling beef was tasty but for some reason the peanut sauce on the platter was watery and runny, when it used to be thick and dense. The eggplant was great!!! Rad na was also a good choice - enjoyed the gravy and noodle combo with the beef and broccoli.Service was quick and attentive. Will continue to support Saladang and hope it makes slight adjustments to their dishes to make it the premier authentic place for Thai food I remember it to be.
