This is by far the best Asian place around. Do not pass up the opportunity to go there. Good prices and excellent recipes. The place is busy and small, but its great for an occasion. Enjoy this treat.

Daisy Mint was the meeting place with friends for lunch. It's a small place, but what it lacks in seating it makes up for in flavor. WOW!! This was some of the BEST Thai food I have ever had in a restaurant. The spring rolls were flavorful with mint, etc. The Hot & Sour Soup w/ shrimp was the BEST... More

Adorable little restaurant, pretty decent Thai food. Long wait, though, on the night we were there. Decent prices and good vegetarian options (usually the case with Thai, of course).

lunch special for $8.50 - a small'ish bowl of green beans, a scoop of brown rice and a little green salad and water. Slow, orders given to wrong people, seemed disorganized to me. Food was ok, I wouldn't go back.

My friend brought me take out from here once and it was love at first taste! We went to the restaurant a few months later and I was whole heartedly pleased! Very good prices, great portions, nice staff, clean and friendly atmosphere. Great location to bring a group of friends or a first date. It's not very large, but it's... More

This is a charming room staffed by very attentive and skilled wait staff. The menu is extensive and features a number of original and intriguing dishes. I strongly recommend the fried catfish salad -- a whole catfish, crispy skin and moist tender flesh without even a single bone or bonelet. The dressing is pungent and tart and delicious and the...

Great Pad See-ew(?) lots of good veggies. Not at all spicy (I like either). Nice atmosphere. I got there at 5:45 on Friday, and it was about 2/3 filled. By 6:15 there was a bit of a line (about 3 parties waiting.)

We ordered panang curry, spaghetti soup and daisy mint fried rice. The curry is really good! It's a little bit spicy with pumpkin in it and goes very well with white rice. The spaghetti soup with shrimp and basil taste rich but refreshing. The restaurant is small (max capacity is 41). Finding parking could be difficulty.

I've visited Daisy Mint every time I've been on vacation in Pasadena, and this is now my third meal here. Situated on the south side of E Colorado Blvd opposite the Vagabond Inn Executive, Daisy Mint is a Thai restaurant serving exquisite food at very reasonable prices. I had a vegetarian Pad Thai with tofu and crushed peanuts and it... More

http://www.daisymint.com No corking fee. Bring all the wine you want. Or beer. Or cider. Décor-Grandma’s closet meets cupcake bakery. It is weird and it works. Charming and funky. The tables are small and you will struggle to find enough room for all your non-matched china and cups and yet it just sort of adds to the charm of the place.... More
