“My husband and I were struggling to find a dinner option last night and we landed on trying this place for the first time. I'm pleasantly surprised and we'll definitely be coming back! We did pickup, but the restaurant is very clean and cute. The staff was super friendly on the phone and at the counter. We both ordered the Pad Thai with chicken and shrimp. I couldn't help myself and finished the whole plate, which could have easily been two servings. Definitely a new favorite and a great quick dinner or lunch option.“

“The Pad Thai here is the best one I have tasted so far“

“So yummy it was best food I have had I like it a lot and they are open late which is rlly good for me since I am a late night owl and I stay up later especially when there’s delicious Thai Food from Sticky Rice which is always a huge plus for me when it is late and I am hungry which is not now but could be later.“

“My family and I love trying different Thai spots and this by far was a great find drunken noodles where so good and I've tried many different places so I know a good place when I try one. Cashew nut chicken glass noodles dumplings and yellow curry also very tasty and their variety and creativity in teas is very delicious and creative.“

“Have lunch with co-workers every week here. Great food and very friendly service. Best Thai food I've found in the South Bay area!“

“Friendly service, nice decoration, clean environment and great food!

We had the angel wings( deep fried boneless chicken wing stuffed with pork, shrimp, and chicken) as appetizer. It’s a good crunch. We also have the tom kha seafood soup, very comforting and full of ingredients and spices. the crying tiger is so juicy. And the crab fried rice can really taste the wok. We also tried the new fried pork with Chinese broccoli. For dessert we have the mango sticky rice, I like how it comes with a heart shape!

For drinks we have Thai milk tea, pink milk and fresh coconut. Overall, an authentic Thai restaurant that you should give a try!“

“Tastes absolutely delicious and exactly the same as it did 30 years ago! Teriyaki chicken, order the #1 and you'll be happy!“

“Cozy Thai spot with amazing food and very warm servers. Flavors were spot on and everything was very fresh. It seems the chef experiments with new items seasonally and their current special Rice Street Supreme should actually be permanently added. Very flavorful! Chef stopped by each table personally checking if everything was okay. Very homely Thai vibe with great food and warm staff!“

“First time going here. I got the Beef Drunken Noodle and the Seafood Tom Yum Soup. When I tell you both dishes had so much flavor and they give you big portions. The food was absolutely delicious and amazing. The waiters were very kind and very attentive. The place was decorated in Halloween decorations, so cute. I loved everything about this place. This will be my go to spot for Thai food from now on. I'm a very hard food critic and this place passed with flying colors. Thank you for the amazing food. I will be back.“

“Great spot. Great people. Great concept. Fun time. It's a must.“

“Today I went to eat with my friend and I liked the food and I’m happy to see that they changed their staff since previously the other boy had a terrible attitude to serve customers but today I left very satisfied to see that they served me very well“

“I finally remembered to try this place. It didn't disappoint. Everything was made fresh to order. The veggies were crisp and tender. The shrimp were nice and plump. The Tom Yum was zesty and flaming.
It's a nice place for friends, family, or a casual date. It's not fancy. You order before you're seated.
The prices are just about the same as most Thai restaurants. Which bothered me a little since we had to stand in line to order.
But overall, it's a great place! It was yummy! It's was peaceful.“

“nice and fresh and clean 👌#1 service good customer service!“

“Best Thai food in LA! 🔥🔥🔥“

“The food is like I am in Thailand. So delicious. The restaurant is big, clean and comfortable! The service is fantastic. They are all wonderful, especially Jenny. Highest recommendation for Tantawan! Try it, you’ll love it!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Great food, great atmosphere“

“The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor! We ordered : Thai ice tea, Thai coffee, larb with tripe, Thai papaya salad, Lao sausages and shrimp fried rice. The service was excellent friendly and attentive from start to finish. I truly enjoyed my experience here and will definitely be coming back for their larb!“

“Great friendly staff! Delicious food we had wonton soup, fried shrimp rolls, and pork belly with veggies everything was a 10/10! Their Thai tea coffee and hot tea were also fire I would definitely recommend! And the bathroom here are clean the restaurant is nice and clean and the customer service was also a 10/10 I loved everything! This is me and my man’s new Thai spot to go too 🥰“

“Very delicious array of food. The staff were very friendly and courteous. Food were cooked as you order them. We enjoyed the food. It is a mom and pop restaurant that serves great food.“

“Don't let the location and exterior fool you. This place has one of the best traditional Thai dishes in north OC. I've tried several Thai restaurants all over So. Cal., and for the price to taste ratio this small hole in the wall type place is almost a hidden gem.“

“Parking was good. Food is good for reasonable cost. Service is good. No sign on the back door so you can't tell if it's the correct place. I had yellow chicken curry. It was good tasting with good, but not perfectly cooked chicken. The curry is very watery. I used 2/3 of it, and it made my rice an unpleasant soggy consistency. Spice level is pretty spot on.“

“Good food and good service at a moderate price“

“After eating Thai food most of my adult life I didn't expect to be surprised by entirely new flavors. Yet somehow they served up a truly unique sauce along with my most excellent white fish. And it was a really good deal too! And the owner/server is a real people person, checking on us frequently and making sure each of the other diners in this little restaurant were satisfied with their food and service. Go there... Spend money... And enjoy a top-knotch meal served by folks who feel like family. (They also do a booming takeout business, it would appear, since delivery/pickup people came and went continually for the whole time we were there.)“

“The food was delicious! My friend recommended it and we decided to eat there for lunch. Our refreshments were served in a cute mason jar. We shared chicken egg rolls for an appetizer. My friend ordered tom yum soup with shrimp and I got Thai Boat Noodle. I am definitely going to eat there again and bring my family.“

“Amazing food amazing customer service ❤️“

“A very lively place with good food and great service. The vibes are good too.
We had their egg rolls for starters and stir fries for entrees that come with rice. Delicious food and pleasant service. I highly recommend going there again.“

“I've been eating at this Thai spot for about a year. I've eaten here at least 10 times and it has hit every time. Amazing food, great service, and affordable prices.

The pad thai and panang curry are top tier. I recently tried the Bangkok sidewalk favorite (similar to gra pow at other restaurants) and it was 10/10.

This place is a must try if you are in the long beach/Lakewood area.“

“Some of the best FLAVORED Thai food I've ever had. Yellow curry chicken lunch special $13. Was amazing! And the Kung POW chicken entree for $15 ? spicy ? ? was the best I've ever had. Great portions also . This is one of those restaurants where the owner is your server.“

“I really like their food 😋“

“Step into Mama Mae Ting's stall and you will be transported into an authentic Bangkok soi eatery (street stall). Somtam is fresh, crunchy and seasoned as spicy as you can handle; the BBQ chicken (gai yang) & BBQ pork (mu ping) are super savory and juicy (and conveniently served on sticks)..be sure to ask for sticky rice with that! Missed out on the kanomkrok but will save that treat for my next visit. Super arroy di mak-mak!“

“Mine Eathai offers a great variety of food at very reasonable prices. Everything is made fresh, comes out quickly, and tastes consistently good. I’ve been a regular for years and it’s always reliable. Friendly service and a solid go-to spot—definitely recommend.“

“Thai food in this neighborhood have all fallen for some reason, and I thank this place for opening to pick up where they lack. I think it's great they came into a location that has very mediocre Thai restaurants around with decent ambiance but low quality food. Instead of focusing on a dine in experience, this place is all about delicious Thai take out.
The drunken pad noodles and spaghetti are great and Thai level spicy.
The pineapple fried rice is also delicious.
This is my new go to Thai spot.“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“This is one of my Thai mom’s favorite restaurants and is also a favorite for my relatives as well. While this is not close to the pinnacle of Thai food, I can admit that most of the dishes are decent. My family always gets the fried pork, thai fish cake and boat noodles. Their sausage is fine.“

“We are vegetarian and unfortunately we're served a soup with a chicken piece in it. Management rectified it immediately. Food was good minus that one incident and the young man with a moustache serving us was extremely professional and pleasant. We are from Houston and this was our first meal in LA. Definitely a big plus for this restaurant. Will return for future meals“

“My family and i love this place. Been coming here for years. Even though it doesnt say it. They are open on sundays from 12-8:30pm except the third sunday of the month. At the risk of exposing my to go to spot. This is a hidden gem for some authentic thai. We got a big family and get the pad thai, pad see ew, pineapple curry (i always order side noodles and make it into a ramen :P ), teriyaki chicken, veg. Fried rice, chow mein, pepper garlic, and the broccoli. Never disappointed.“

“This place is so good you know it’s fire when it’s elderly Thai mommas cooking 🧑‍🍳

Reminds you of Thailand 🥹

Note: thai food is normally on the hot end so ask for less spicy if you can’t take the heat.

Will be back thank you again!“

“Thai Chili Express is a hidden gem that truly delivers an authentic Thai dining experience. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a warm, cozy atmosphere that feels welcoming and relaxed. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer.

The food? Absolutely amazing. Each dish bursts with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced and expertly prepared. Whether you’re craving a classic Pad Thai, a rich and creamy Green Curry, or something with a bit of a spicy kick, you can taste the care and tradition in every bite. The portions are generous, and the presentation is on point, making it a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.

If you’re a fan of Thai cuisine or just looking to try something new, Thai Chili Express is a must-visit. Their combination of delicious food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere guarantees a dining experience you’ll want to repeat. Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Best Thai in Bixby Knolls!“

“Great food service and price Very clean atmosphere too!“

“I walked into a small restaurant and was greeted by the owner who was very polite and accommodating, it was clean and atmosphere was welcoming. I ordered Yellow Curry w/chicken & Pad Si Ew Noodles with beef to go, I was asked to have a seat and about 12-15 mins later the food was ready to go. The yellow curry was tasty but I tend to have very high standards when it comes to curry. It was more than adequate but it could have been spicier and to be honest, I’ve had better and worse. However, the Pad Si Ew Noodle with beef was AWESOME! It was so delicious and perfectly balanced. I would definitely come back just for this dish 😋“

“YUM!!!! First time trying this place and it was gooooood!! We ordered the tangerine chicken. Super crispy and light. Delicious! Also ordered the spicy garlic fried rice with chicken with extra spice and it did not dissapoint! It was our first time there so that's all we had but we will be back to try more! :)“

“This place has amazing food! I am vegan and I had the curry with fried tofu, the pineapple rice and the coconut rice (some dishes may have been vegetarian) and the food was incredible! I had these dishes to go, but what was really superb was the hospitality of the guy who took my order he might be the owner he has a new Zealand or Australian accent, his hospitality was incredible, while I was waiting he offered me water and just amazing amazing service and the food was de-licious! I highly recommend it!!“

“Un lugar muy limpio. Y la comida muy rica. Su personal muy amable .Es un restauran familiar.“
