The food was terrible, and the owner was mean and terrible. It’s no wonder they were completely empty on a Saturday night.

The food was exquisite, absolutely delicious 😍 Generous portions. We came here as a group of 7 friends and received excellent service. A very warm, family-like atmosphere and food clearly made with heart. We highly recommend this place!

Great food! They have the best mango sticky rice with the ripest mango I’ve ever had. Highly recommend coming here. Very underrated spot.
I also order for take out but the service has been fast and friendly. My food is always on time and hot. The food is nothing short of amazing. I have had duck fried rice and duck fried soup. The flavor is one of a kind. I rave about this place to everyone I know. Really good food.

Amazing food, super quick, fresh, and hot. Not many tables but we got lucky with our group of 5. Prices are good and portion size is great. I got the orange chicken special.

When a Meal Becomes a Reminder
Food: ★★★★☆ (4 out of 5) Service/Experience: ★★☆☆☆ (2 out of 5) Overall: ★★★☆☆ (3 out of 5)
I visited Taste Kitchen Thai Food Restaurant in West L.A. on Sepulveda because I had a serious craving for Thai shrimp fried rice. The restaurant is takeout only — which was fine, because I planned to eat in my car. The food came out fast, the portion was generous, and the shrimp fried rice was solid.
What stuck with me wasn’t the food. It was the way something simple — asking for an extra chili sauce packet — turned into a whole situation. I asked for one packet and it already felt like I was pushing it. I asked for a second — because of the size of the portion — and the woman froze, like I had crossed some invisible line. Had I been white, I doubt it would’ve even been a question. Two packets would’ve been handed over without hesitation. And if I had been sharing the meal? One packet wouldn’t have been enough for two people — barely enough for one.
They smiled and told me to enjoy my meal, but by then, the moment had already happened.
Eating in my car wasn’t the issue. Trying to eat with a flimsy, tiny fork that couldn’t even hold the food was. For the kind of portions they serve, better utensils aren’t optional — they’re basic.
Being a Black customer means these aren’t isolated incidents. They are constant reminders: even the smallest ask gets weighed differently.
The food was good. The message behind it was louder.
