Monora Asian Street Food Bar

Decent food and generous portions! Pricing is reasonable. Service was friendly, and food came out quickly. Everything we ordered was decent. We got the S1 chicken pad thai and chicken satay combo, thai fried rice, mongolian beef, and 605 fwy noodles. Combo comes with egg roll and fried wontons - yay! Chicken satay had nice char and was juicy (not too dry).

My vendor friend and I came to Monora Thai for lunch since it's relatively close to their office. We had just eaten bagels so we were more in a snacking mood while catching up, rather than eating a full meal. The interior seems like it needs an upgrade. We sat in these booths where the chairs were scratchy and torn, not comfortable at all.We shared some starters: Wonton Cream Cheese ($8.95), Butterfly Shrimp ($12.95), Beef Ball Stick ($10.95), and Satay Chicken ($10.95) and a pot of Hot Green Tea ($4.95) since it was a chilly day. I thought the satay chicken was the best thing we tried. The wonton cream cheese and butterfly shrimp were pretty average. I would not order that beef ball stick if we were to ever come back. Service was pretty slow and neglective, even when it was empty when we first came in. At folks started coming in for lunch, they were even slower. We had to really ask a few times for the check and a togo box. For that reason alone, I don't think it's a great place for a work lunch given the time restrictions. The food doesn't really motivate me to come back either.

I am more than a thai food enthusiast--I might be obsessed. I had my eye on this place for a while, and so walking into the restaurant, I had high expectations. It was clean, nicely decorated, and best of all, the menu had such an exciting spread. Every dish imaginable. I knew it was gonna hit.My parents and I walked in less than an hour to closing for my birthday dinner. I got home late from work yet the server was incredibly welcoming (we asked if they were still doing dine in).All of their combo dishes come with a soup, egg rolls, fried wontons. THE SOUP WAS SO GOOD it was a light veggie chicken soup with veggies. Everything came out piping hot, everything was well priced. The server noticed I was celebrating my birthday and the staff sent me a fresh fried banana which was just amazing. The food and service was impeccable.My family and I have quickly become regulars. We have tried almost everything on the menu and have never been disappointed.Hainan chicken, eggplant stir fry, thai basil chicken, tom yum, tom kha, pad kee mao, pad thai, fried shrimp rolls, monora grilled chicken, chicken satay, panang curry... you get the idea. Every single dish is cooked with care and love and with the perfect spices. This is truly a wonderful spot. You can tell they know what they're doing.

Super yummy thai place with decent pricesThe chef is so fast cooking up thr dishesI ordered online for 530pm pick up but got there earlier at 510. The chef started cooking right away and everything was done in like 10 min.I got the nam tok / waterfall salad- huuuge portion steak was so flavorful and tender and so spicy and delicious w the saucePad kew mao - big portions and so much shrimp. Nice and spicy.Spicy basil ground pork - really yummy with jasmine rice. Huge portionHainan chicken and rice - so worth it for the price. Chicken was soft and rice was moist and delicious. Sauces were on point tooTom yum soup - could be mroe sour and spicy but they were so generous w the shrimp - there was like 10 big ass shrimps in there. Definitely my new thai place. Lots of parking. Clean. Food was great!

The food was okay. I love Thai food and eat it all the time, so based off of the amazing reviews, I thought the food would be amazing. Maybe I'll have to try other dishes.The Tom Kha was salty and lacked a lot of flavor. I was a bit surprised by the taste. I asked for fried tofu as my protein so maybe the chef interpreted that as making the broth vegetarian? I'm not sure.The chicken satay was solid. Exactly what I expected from this dish. Juicy chicken with some char and turmeric flavor.

As much as I want to gatekeep this place, I want to give a shoutout for the delicious food and amazing lunch special pricing Monora offers. The place is clean and spacious. As soon as I stepped in, I smelled delicious Thai cuisine. I was greeted and seated right away. I ordered the pad see ew lunch special. The egg roll and wonton were crispy and piping hot, not to mention very tasty. The pad see ew tasted of good char. The only criticism I have was that the noodles fell apart and the chicken didn't seem marinated long enough. But I ate it with pickled jalapenos and it was perfect. I can't wait to go back and try everything else on their menu!

Authentic Thai never tasted so good!I love getting take out from this Monora location since it's closer to me vs their Cerritos location. The spiciness levels and taste keep me coming back, and the workers are nice. My usual is the pad kee mao, medium spicy, with chicken. It's usually a huge portion for me and I split it over 2 meals.There is plenty of parking at this location and I've never had to wait for a spot. We usually order online via the website - tip: if you order online via the website and it's over a certain dollar amount, they throw in something free. At some points it used to be a free hainan chicken rice or a free chicken pad Thai - I think currently it's free mango sticky rice.

Sign says they are open on Sunday. So when I arrived here at 3pm. The restaurant was locked, & the lights were off. I should have known by the empty parking lot. When they are open their food is amazing as ordered thru Doordash or UberEats. So I'll give this place 3 stars.

First timer - Picked up takeout yesterday and it was delicious. Pad Thai 9.5/10Pad kri paw?? Ground pork - 8/10Cream cheese wonton 10/10Spare ribs 4/10 - my bf likes it more than me though

I placed a takeout order online, and the food was ready before quoted.The prices are lower than other places in the area for comparable dishes, and the portions are larger. I tired the Khao Soi, Pad Thai, and Masaman curry. All 3 were great, and the Khao Soi is some of the best I've had, particularly with the portions. All the expected condiments are there, and the amount of noodles and chicken is very proportional to the curry.
