"Dining at Miya feels like eating at your cool Thai aunt's home who happens to be a great cook. Thai movie posters hang on the wall and playful knickknacks peek out from every corner. The two dining rooms bustle with energy; smells of freshly pounded curry paste and wok-fired noodles drift out from the kitchen. (You can't help but look up at every steaming dish that emerges as you anxiously await your own meal.)"
"Miya's khao soi is the best in the Pasadena area. Its coconut curry broth feels rich and all the fixings satisfy: chewy ribbons of egg noodles, roasted chiles, pickled mustard greens, raw red onions, and a bird's nest of fried noodles for crunch. The tom yum is aromatic and zippy and especially good when ordered with tender white fish as the soup's protein, which absorbs the flavors of the soup."
"Although Miya's menu is already vegetarian and vegan-friendly, on Tuesdays the restaurant shifts to an entirely vegetarian menu (some dishes still contain egg, which can be omitted), with dishes like fried oyster mushrooms in place of fried chicken and pad Thai with tofu. Miya has two dining areas: one where you order that's connected to the kitchen, and another that functions as a more vibrant dining room."
Miya offers a warm, nostalgic dining experience with Thai movie posters and playful knickknacks framing two bustling dining rooms. The khao soi features a rich coconut curry broth with chewy egg noodles, roasted chiles, pickled mustard greens, raw red onions, and fried noodles for crunch. The tom yum pairs especially well with tender white fish that soaks up the soup's flavors. The panang curry delivers fall-apart braised beef that is savory and mildly spicy for rice. Specials often include whole fish. The menu is vegetarian- and vegan-friendly, and Tuesdays are an all-vegetarian menu. One dining room is connected to the kitchen; the other is livelier and noticeably cooler.
