Chef G on 4th Thai Street Food - Alhambra, California

Anish Thakkar (Doc Thakkar)

Enjoyed a delicious meal here with friends. Portions are adequate, their prik nam plaa was on point (with cuts of garlic!), and the flavors were on point.

Customized my friend’s chicken pad see ew, and enjoyed the tofu red curry alongside the chicken green curry. Everything was on point and prices were reasonable as well!

Will come back for sure 🙂

One of my favorite Thai food places. The food is good, but keep in mind that the portions are quite small. Everything I’ve tried so far has been good. The place isn’t very big, so it’s often packed.

I was pleasantly surprised by the exemplary food and service that we received here. My Pineapple Fried Rice was the best that I've had, and in very picky. My girlfriend had the Dom Yum Noodles and states that they were really, really good. The perfect fresh flavor balance... If you like it spicy, you'll need ty ask for extra spice, unlike the last Thai place that I ate at where the mild literally scolded my mouth for two days. I prefer the honest choice and being able to add Chili Paste. The fried Cream Cheese Wanton was great both as an appetizer and dessert after our meal.
I'll be returning multiple times...
Forgive me, the food was so good and I was so hungry, I forgot to take pictures. Believe me, presentation was awesome. These are all I've got left...
Plenty of parking in back alley.

This is my first time dining at Chef G after numerous instances of hearing about it. We selected their lunch combo, which offered the option to choose between jasmine rice, fried rice, or brown rice (with an additional charge). This comes with soup and salad with 1 choice of appetizer for all of their dishes on their lunch menu. We chose the green curry and pad kaprow and chicken satay. We also ordered grilled beef salad.
The food itself was satisfactory, however, the portion size is rather modest. If you are a substantial eater, it might be advisable to consider ordering two or three orders. The service provided was remarkably attentive and commendable. However, parking may pose some challenges as they only provide street parking. Consequently, the restaurant premises themselves are relatively small and may not comfortably accommodate large parties.

Chef G in Alhambra is a cozy spot with attentive service and a warm atmosphere, making it a delightful choice for a post-church meal. While the menu offers a variety of Thai classics, the execution of dishes falls slightly short of exceptional. The pad thai with crispy pork belly presents a creative twist, but the noodles can lean towards mushiness, though the addition of crispy pork adds depth to the dish. Similarly, the satay features flavorful chicken but tends to be slightly tough, saved only by the delicious peanut sauce.

One disappointment arises with the Tom Kha soup, which arrives resembling a Tom Yum soup instead. Despite the visual misstep, the flavors remain true to Thai cuisine, providing a satisfying albeit unexpected twist. Parking is convenient with options in the back and on the street, ensuring easy access for diners. In summary, Chef G offers a pleasant dining experience with room for improvement in consistency and execution, yet it remains a solid choice for those seeking familiar Thai flavors with a creative touch.

Best hole in the wall Thai restaurant in SGV or maybe Los Angeles? The drunken noodle is absolutely delicious and if you can handle spicy .. # 5 will have you screaming for more!!! The wok hei in every bite! We also love the spicy fried rice.. you can get it mild buy #4 is perfect for us…

A very small Thai restaurant but great food. There isn't a very big parking lot in the back but you can find parking nearby on the streets. There also isn't many tables inside so that is why the wait times get so long. Luckily, we came at a good time and didn't have to wait. The employees are friendly and have good service too.

We ordered the pad thai, pad see ew, chicken satay, khao soi. The satay was okay but I really liked the pad thai and pad see ew. However, the portions are a bit on the smaller side for the price. One dish is barely enough for one person. But I guess the size is good for trying different dishes with friends.
