Bangkok Soul: Authentic Thai Flavors and Modern Dining in Alhambra

Really feeds the soul. They’re pad see ew and their bbq crispy pork belly dish was amazing. I had the crispy pork belly and it was really crispy and delicious. I got a fried egg as well that was cooked well. The service is top notch and the food came out pretty quickly. Overall a great experience and delicious food. Highly recommend if you’re looking for Thai food.

I would give this place a 3.5, I prefer to round up. Came on a Friday night before the crowd kicked in. I ordered. Seated at a corner near the the host table, awkward placement if you're not sitting at the window side. Lean Roll: I liked the peanut sauce but I don't think it's worth getting for $10. Thainese Chicken Rice and Soup (miss thainan): Best dish to me, I liked they have crispy bits of the rice! Good portion. Chow mein: Portion is fine but a bit too oily for my liking. Coconut Ice cream: Very generous portion and can really taste coconut. It was too icy though.

Amazing new Thai spot in Alhambra! Bangkok Soul is a hidden gem that just opened up in Alhambra and it’s already one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the area. The space is clean, modern, and welcoming—perfect for a casual lunch or cozy dinner. I highly recommend their Bangkok Braised Pork Leg—it’s their signature dish and it absolutely lives up to the hype. Super flavorful, tender, and melts in your mouth. You can taste the care in every bite. What I love most is how affordable everything is without sacrificing quality. Great food, generous portions, and friendly service—what more can you ask for? If you’re in the San Gabriel Valley/Alhambra and love Thai food, definitely give Bangkok Soul a try. It’s a new favorite for sure!

We ordered chicken mix with rice , slow cooked pork shoulder, and crab meat fried rice. The chicken mix was delicious and crispy. The pork shoulder tasted fresh as the meat has bounce and not dry. The fried rice has a strong wok smell making it authentic. The amount of crabmeat was generous for the price. The servers were all friendly and humble. The atmosphere feel very new and modern. Very worthwhile to go enjoy at. Quite busy during lunch. Don’t forget to check in on yelp and receive a free Thai tea too.

Came here with a friend for lunch and we both got the fried chicken lunch special. The ginger rice goes well with the chicken, as well as the chicken sauce. The lunch special itself is decent and gives you good value in my option. Staff was attentive and we had no issues

the food and service was outstanding. the place opened up where the tenren’s teatime used to be. i had the snow tofu (fried tofu), pad thai, and the signature bangkok braised pork leg (boss leg mixed) snow tofu: the presentation was excellent, i especially liked the thai flag that came with the tofu. the tofu was crispy on the outside, but the tofu on the inside was silken tofu that basically melts in your mouth. it comes with chopped peanuts and a sweet and sour (?) sauce that was really good. pad thai: very good. the noodles weren’t too sticky and overall a very good flavorful pad thai. signature bangkok braised pork leg (boss leg mixed) (khao kha mu): the meat was very tender and flavorful. the chili sauce provided was excellent as well. overall, the food was outstanding and the service was amazing as well. staff were really attentive and answered any questions we had. please give this place a try!
