We hadn’t been to Mix Bowl Thai Food in 18 years, and we are thrilled to say it’s still the best Thai food we’ve ever had! The restaurant is just as nice and clean as we remembered, with a welcoming and cozy atmosphere.
The servers were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our dining experience even better. And the food? Absolutely amazing! Every dish was full of bold flavors and cooked to perfection, reminding us why this place has always been a favorite.
It’s rare to find a restaurant that stands the test of time, but Mix Bowl Thai Food has managed to maintain its high quality and charm. We’re so glad we returned and won’t wait another 18 years to come back! Highly recommend.
Good food and affordable, waiting in line wasn’t so bad even on weekends. Preparation foods was very fast from their kitchen. Overall we were happy with our foods and services also nice. Parking very spacious and this is the reason I love to come to this restaurant, no stress of parking lots at all. Very good and recommended 👍🏻
I accidentally discovered this restaurant while waiting for my Toyota to be repaired. It doesn't have a exquisite outlook, but it has an authentic taste, just like the delicious food I had in Thailand. If you like Thai food, come here. by the way, employee Minnie had a really good service
The food was AMAZING, well priced, authentic and DELICIOUS! Service is always gracious, charming and expeditious. If you want awesome well priced food, this is your place! It is in a former fast food outlet, so Atmosphere is fine but not impressive. I'll take the yummy food myself!
First time a friend brought us here and we liked it. Had to go back for second time for more. They have a big list of menu covering Thai and Chinese cooking. Overall it was great. Look forward to come back again. We live in Oregon so next time. 😀
It’s local and it’s decent enough if you’ve never tried Thai food but not a go-to spot.
Im so obsessed with this place I dont care to drive 25 minutes to come here or even pick up the food is so good I always get Pee sew eew with Beef small side of rice and Thai Boba the most delicious meal ever!!!
I have been coming to this place for 18 years and have never been disappointed. The dishes of my childhood are as flavorful as I remembered it to be. Absolutely recommend it to anyone in the area!
Chill atmosphere, great food, great value
They are everything great atmosphere lovely food and beautiful people!!!
Tried their pineapple fried rice, which tasted so well after adding Sriracha and Chili-garlic sauces. Portion size is quite generous. Their Tom Kha soup was excellent. Also tried their Yellow curry which was kind of disappointing; it looked aesthetically pleasing but had way extra turmeric which overpowered the flavor. Service and staff is great. Plenty parking spots all around the restuarant. Well maintained restrooms.

Mix Bowl Cafe is one of my favorite Thai restaurants. I'd consider it more of a sit down restaurant but the atmosphere is more like a diner. I love the Pad-See-Ewe with beef! I come here quite often with my Grandma and she loves the egg rolls!

Been going here for years. Nothing fancy but they make solid Thai food at a reasonable price and they refill your water every 5 seconds.
This place has been a staple for a long time now. The restaurant is always clean and the servers are fast and friendly. Food isn't fancy but for what it is, it's great and the prices are friendly too. If you're looking for some decent Thai food go check em out. Curry, seafood soup, pad Thai, etc, all good and worth giving a taste.
This place just fecking gets it. Service is beautifully efficient. Food comes out super quick and delicious. Atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming, like you are at home with ur extended family. I leave here relaxed, fat, full and happy.
The restaurant is very clean and inviting. The servers are friendly and efficient. Outstanding food and variety of entrees.
I've been eating great Thai food here for so long.
(So, how long has it been?)
I remember when the building was a Wendy's.
And i can't even remember the last time I've been to a Wendy's.... So there...
Deliciosa comida excelente atención
Wonderful and flavorful food as usual.
Don't come here anymore just been busy but recommend it, it is very good an welcoming an clean. Must try atleast once, you won't be disappointed
Excelente 👌
Please don’t go here, Samanluang is a few blocks away, go there. People who work here do not know how to treat their customer. Zero customer service, almost like no education at all. Trust me 100% on this.
Good food and affordable, waiting in line wasn’t so bad even on weekends. Preparation foods was very fast from their kitchen. Overall we were happy with our foods and services also nice. Parking very spacious and this is the reason I love to come to this restaurant, no stress of parking lots at all. Very good and recommended 👍🏻
First time getting food from this restaurant. I ordered on the phone for pick up the pad see ewe and the garlic pork ribs. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend trying the spot out. Friendly service very clean and good portion sizes.
Good place to eat, delicious food, nice ambiance, fair prices 👌
Good price and tasty foods
This is the spot if you want some Thai food, seriously, they're open late, you have no excuse.
Very good food. Service was wonderful!!!! I live down the street from this restaurant . Healthy menu
tasty, good portions, plentiful parking
Just OK 🫤 sometimes you get lucky, and the dish comes out good, but the next time you go and the food is awful! 50/50 chance!
ME GUSTA MUCHO ESTA COMIDA APARTE SON MUY AMABLES Y LIMPIOS QUE DIOS Y MI VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE MELOS BENDIGA SIEMPRE.
The food was amazing service was fast and friendly the place is comfortable
INCREDIBLE SERVICE!!!!
One of the best Thai places in Pomona but just because we decided to dine in when we also initially ordered for takeout, the servers got really strict about it as if we weren't going to tip or something just because we initially ordered take out plus decided to dine in. Got so annoyed, never came back after this visit. I mean why act all strict about dining in when we're spending more money by buying more food?? Unnecessary. Just lost our business for good.
Always very delicious, the staff is friendly and welcoming.
My family and I love this place! We have been coming here for years. It is the best Thai food anywhere. We judge all other Thai food off of Mix Bowl and no other place comes close!
Wish I could remember but in pain management stage and can't remember what I has for breakfast. Wait, did I eat breakfast?
The service is fast, friendly, and accurate. They had one person to set up utensils and plates immediately after we sat down.
The waitress was knowledgeable and their communication was very clear. So I felt our ordering experience was great too (very effective and quick).
I think each plate has plenty of food (we were visiting from northern California).
We ate fried tofu, pad se ew, Kanom Pak Kard, and green curry. The food was delicious. We didn't wait for long (within five mins) to receive all the food we ordered on the table.
Their fried tofu is particularly impressive to me since it is crispy outside and soft inside, and it wasn't oily.
Green curry tastes like many other places, but what is special is they are generous about adding good materials there - bamboo, tofu ..
Also it didn't taste heavy, which means they added just enough sauce in my opinions.
It was my first time to have Kanom Pak Kard. It was good and had a lot of bean spout (that I like).
Clean inside, fast service and good food.
Inexpensive and friendly. My go to in Pomona
Twice been to this place & both time we loved it, their server was very polite & their food excellent. Plenty of sitting space & everything so tasty.
Late night after theater bites or early hot soup dinner, we always over order so we can have leftovers the next day. A Pomona legend for great Thai food, it's always a treat. The Tom yum gai( Chicken galangal root) soup or Tom yum with seafood soup are my personal favorites. We get an order of rice with it and add that to the soup. Like it spicy, about a 7 on a one to 10 scale. Their curries are all great too and blend a creamy heat with their sweetness.
Nice presentation but the food is a little bit salty
One of the best Thai restaurant in Socal. Food is super tasty. Friendly, and attentive staff. Nothing special about the decor would be my only complaint but it is clean.
Mix Bowl is our go to place for our lunch or dinner. Fast service, good food, reasonable price.
I wish their items contained more meat. You almost questioned if they put any. But besides that great taste.
I accidentally discovered this restaurant while waiting for my Toyota to be repaired. It doesn't have a exquisite outlook, but it has an authentic taste, just like the delicious food I had in Thailand. If you like Thai food, come here. by the way, employee Minnie had a really good service
I ordered egg rolls, chicken fried rice and Pad kee mow with chicken. The egg rolls and fried rice were pretty standard, my issue was with the Pad kee mow, they used ground chicken which was just weird and there was no sauce 🤔
Great food 😋 Service could be better.
I can't recall having a bad food experience here. Each dish hits the mark on flavor and texture. My personal comfort option is the duck over rice.
Even when busy, the staff are courteous and friendly.
Probably my only gripe with this place is no more late night eats. Still, this place has the best prices with the best service with the best Thai on the county. Been going here for more than a decade.
This place has it all - friendly staff, a welcoming family-oriented environment, and delicious food. If you're looking for a dining experience that will satisfy your taste buds while making you feel right at home, this is the place to be. The staff is always happy to help and the atmosphere is perfect for enjoying a meal with your loved ones. Don't miss out on this outstanding dining experience!
Today I came in and witnessed an interaction with the waitress and an elderly couple and a woman. The customers ordered food and I guess they had given wrong item of food so they let cashier know in a very respectful way I might add. The waitress however did not handle it well and kept coming back to argue with them that that was what they ordered. It was very unprofessional and I do not understand the reason the waitress did not just fix it rather thenwalk back and forth to argue with customers. I was about to butt in because the waitress was being rude and belittling to customer. I use to love this place have been coming here for years but today they lost more than a few customers. They should be ashamed to have ruined the meal for them. Completely appalled.
The pad thai was all mixed together, and Soggy. It was like a mush. In The mixed fish plate the Calamari/squid and baby muscles were not chewable, and had to be discarded. The shrimp and white fish were good. The Broccoli dish was good. Though it did seem to have a lot of stems.
I order the Cha-Po hoping it was delicious as it read on the menu. The dish supposed to have duck, pork belly, and barbecue pork.
The duck portion was measured as the size of my whole thumb. The dish is basically bbq pork with steam rice. Also the rice was hotter than the meats. I guess their is some good and bad plates here at Mix Bowl.
When we got there waiters did not pay attention to us, we had to call for service and ask for a menu, poor customer service
My fave Thai spot..
My husband and I happen to come across the restaurant last night. The place looked really pleasant and clean. Everything was good until we went to the counter to pick up our to go order. We got 2 items that totaled almost $50..when my husband got our food from the window there were cups of sauce near the condiments , my husband picked up 2 of the cups of sauce and started walking towards me to leave when one of the men that worked there walked up and snatched them out of my husbands hand, and said these aren't complimentary! He was so rude for no reason. He treated my husband as if he was stealing something from the restaurant. So our first and definitely last experience here was horrible. The food was okay but not worth that kind of treatment. There are better ways to communicate with people, especially your customers that are coming in the spend money in your restaurant.
Friendly service got my food in a timely manner. They even helped with a few menu suggestions. Ultimately, I chose pineapple fried rice, which was delicious. This place is open late which was helpful because I got off of work late and was hungry.
Very nice place for a family of two or three
Decent considering it's in Pomona. Big servings and not as expensive as other spots. Seafood soup and noodles are great. Wish their soup had little more ginger.
I order a seafood soup and the mussels were not clean and had a nasty smell. I am trying to talk to the manager but they just refuse to answer my call. Before this restaurant charges a 15,% tip if you like it or not. Bad service. I am not sure if they like Hispanic people. Looks like they don't. Or some of the workers act like that. Not coming back ever.
Meh food was okay. Soup came out cold, when asked to heat it up the waiter had a very weird attitude. This place was nothing to come back too, very odd waiter and bad tasting water. Another waiter had a cough, i notice he was coughing over people's dishes and water glasses. Won't return.
Food was delicious! Seafood soup, sweet & sour fish & #100 were amazing!
This place always hits the spot!!!
It was good food , great service and the place was nice and clean. Definitely will be coming back soon
I've been here several times now, and it's going downhill for me. I remember this place being amazing when greeted at the door while placing orders, bringing them out. This time around, I don't know if I'd go back. Entering there's a funky smell coming from the kitchen area. Noodles were super overcooked and mushy. Lychee water had almost no flavor of lychee. As if they only put 5 lychee in a cup of water. Place is falling off the map for me. Wouldn't go back.
I was highly disappointed with my meal. The Thai salad looked so unappetizing that I just threw it away, but before I did, I thought I would eat the sliced cucumber it came with and some dressing, but the dressing was disgusting too. My husband ordered the chicken pad thai and took two bites and could not continue eating it because the noodles were drenched in a sweet sauce, and the texture was grainy. We just wasted $30.
My favorite Thai food restaurant. Extensive menu of food & drinks, and a friendly staff. My 120 mile round trip drive is worth it for their pad kee mao!
OMG they are open again!!!! Yo, I have memories here with my friends after snowboarding. I remember coming back to the spot a few years ago and it was closed down. I was devastated. So happy that it's back!
Had one of the best seafood soups I've ever tried at this place! Just unbelievable, delicious, flavorful, amazing. Please stop by and check this place out!
Calamari was mostly breading and the broccoli in pad see ew was all stem no florets
Food is not good, noodles were mush and to top it off, found hair in the pad see ew. Nasty!!!
They might have a new cook or something, because my food looked nothing like the reviews. Tom Kha had a total of 4 small shrimp in it and hardly any veggies for $15.50?? WTH!
Very delicious food ,excellent and quick sevise. Thank you
The best thing about this place is the service. They are fast!! And they try their best even on busy days. Except for new faces. The employees mostly are automatic, water refill, they ask how youre doing, some have smiley face and enthusiastic energy. The foods are great, right amount portion. Their soup though seems like they dont have fresh ingredients. But overall they taste delicious. Their seafood fried rice is amazing.
Pésimo servicio la cajera atiende de la mala gana
Mix Bowl is a Thai restaurant gem in the Pomona area that has consistently delighted my taste buds. When it comes to Pad Thai and Tom Yum soup, this place is a true standout.
Their Pad Thai is nothing short of amazing. The perfect blend of flavors, the right balance of sweet and savory, and the generous portions make it an absolute must-try. It's the kind of dish that keeps you coming back for more.
And then there's the Tom Yum soup – a symphony of tangy and spicy goodness that warms the soul. Mix Bowl's version is simply the best in the area. The rich broth and fresh ingredients create an unforgettable flavor experience.
Beyond the delicious food, the ambiance at Mix Bowl is welcoming and cozy, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with friends and family.
If you're a Thai food enthusiast or just looking for a fantastic dining experience, Mix Bowl is the place to be. Their Pad Thai and Tom Yum soup alone are worth the visit, and I can't recommend them enough.
Coconut shrimp soup is A+++++. What I didn’t like is that they were selling all the hot sauce! they didn’t offer any sauce to go unless it was paid for. Everything was $1.50 for two go sauce.. Then when I asked them for spicy sauce, they said nothing we have will go good with your food!! So they mean to tell me they don’t have hot sauce for their own meals?? I told them I don’t mind paying for sauce. I just want something good they said we have nothing. Definitely not good for business….
(11/19/2023) Very friendly service. Prices are good and portions are decent. Hainanese Chicken can be better to perfection. Chicken rice is good. Everything here has "Wok Chi" and means freshly cooked. Sizzling seafood is very good and Chow Fan is decent as well. Probably one of my choices for Thai food.
My favorite Thai restaurant. Food is always delicious. Service is always fast. I've tried nearly everything on their menu at least once. I steer clear of raw or salted eggs. But they've got fantastic noodle and rice dishes, and wonderful soups. Don't forget to try their smoothies with boba. I recommend the honeydew. The decor isn't fancy, very casual, but you'll leave full and happy.
Been coming to Mixed Bowl since the 1990s. Always enjoyed the food, service and the price. Will come back again and again.
This is indeed a good quality food place. Foods are so delicious. But because of this, expect a lot of hungry customers.. huge crowd that the available servers can't handle.
Food still HITS after been going here for 10 plus years 😋
Delicious.
The place have changed so much since I last been here. The change is good though. Food still good as always. And friendly staffs.
This place has the best Thai food for miles! No other place compares! The presentation of food is always lovely. Service is always awesome and priced just right! I've been going her for years, and food is always consistent!
Must try!!!
Great Food.
Menu prices online are deceptive! Go in thinking about one price and come out paying way more. Update your online menu and prices!!!!!
Service was great !
Great food. Friendly staff.
Hands down the best Thai food around the area! My favorite dish here is the Pad See Ew and the rice or chow mein combo plates, please save some for me.... haha. Honestly, everything I've had here has been fantastic but my favorites remain the same. And when you do eat this awesome food do try the Thai tea it's too good to pass up!
This is a 30 year favorite for great Thai food.
I'm a "foodie" and have spent time in Thailand. That's that's my yardstick for judging this place for their quality.
This is a very clean well-run business which has never wavered in quality since they opened.
It is in a former Wendy's, but extremely well taken care of, with a friendly casual atmosphere.
I have spent time in Thailand, and this is some of the best Thai food I have had in 10 of the United States when I started eating it in 1983. Their prices are lower than any Thai restaurant in the So CA area I have visited, probably owing to owning the property.
Pad Thai, Pad see eew are awesome, but they have excellent Curry and other greats as well. Yummy. Highly recommended!
Ordered 1 chicken pad thai. Portion size was good but I was really not a fan of the chicken, it looked like dark meat & tasted/smelled very gamey, I ate only one piece of chicken. I don’t think I’d return..
We used to live close enough to get delivery from Mix Bowl and boy howdy do I miss those days!!! EVERYTHING here it's delicious and fresh! A must try in Montclair!
We got there at exactly 9PM i went there to go dine in, they never answered the phone and went I got there they told me “sorry TAKE OUT ONLY!” We are CLOSED” it’s only 9PM stop being lazy!!!! What’s wrong with you
Muy bien
Anesthetics is nice, food is always delicious favorites spot for Thai since 2010 must try the pad sew noodles and a Thier bobas.
Average food! Sate and beef jerky less than fair!
They never answer the phone and I'd rather order to go then sit where it's packed and hot with flies but food great
It's changed a lot for the better from the last time I was here a lifetime ago, definitely a must go I was a in high school I believe when I first went here with my father. But now I got a chance to go again and it was better than I remembered.
Tried the Penang beef curry was the best I’ve had
Very friendly staff, great food.
Whenever I want some quick Thai food, I come here! This is a must have for whenever you’re in Pomona! The employees are super nice and always take your order right away! Any dish is amazing!!! My favorite dish is the mango with sticky rice!
Yummy!!!
great customer service!
Food is always delicious and fresh
Best Thai food in the Inland Empire!
been here forever used to come here daily since it was big bowl back then lol
I was disappointed in the flavor taste of the food. Not the same. General Noodles use to have such a wonderful taste to their broth, now its just plain. What did they do to it.
Fried shrimp has the tails on them
As long as me and my wife have been coming here for years it has changed.
