served 4 people first that came in AFTER us we ordered 2 things. The hospitality towards other asians was amazing compared to ours. the older lady with glasses behind the counter didn’t bother to say hi to us and gave a very cold impression, compared to the service she gave other asians. Yes me and my daughter are black.

First time eating here. Ordering was easy. You can sit anywhere available. Service was great, if eating there, they take your food to your table. Food is good.

This place is absolutely incredible. The service is always great and the noodles are delicious. I always go with the wonton with egg noodle. You won’t regret it. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and each item is really good!!!

Tried Sweet Rice at the Tokyo Central complex in Gardena and was pleasantly surprised as a vegetarian. While the menu doesn’t clearly list vegetarian options, I called ahead and they confirmed they can make yellow, red, and green curries vegetarian with no fish sauce. I ordered the yellow curry with potato and onion, and it was flavorful, comforting, and not too heavy. Chili oil on top added a nice kick. Others at the table enjoyed the curry noodle soup and wonton soup. Despite being Michelin Guide–listed, this is a very casual spot—order at the counter, relaxed seating, no formal dining—which makes it easy and approachable. Parking right out front is a plus. Food is good value for money! Bowl Thai grill is next door (same owners) so you can sit there if the restaurant is full.

The soups are delicious, but if you prefer comfortable seating, sit in their other restaurant across from this one - they'll bring the soup over to you, and you can order additional dishes from that reataurant.

Very friendly staff, easy parking, reasonable prices.
I got the Thai Boat Noodle Soup and it was flavorful and rich but slightly salty. It had lots of meat pieces and I liked the pho noodles. The portion was perfect for filling me up, but I don't eat that much.
My wife liked the tofu green curry. It was very lemon grassy.
Overall, I would come back to try other dishes.

Sweet Rice is literally one of my favorite Thai restaurants in town! I usually order the Khao Soi (kind of like a curry ramen) and it’s always super delicious. Recently, I found out they serve Hainan chicken rice on Fridays, so I tried it — and I loved it! Honestly, I wish I could eat their Hainan chicken rice every day, but it’s only available on Fridays, which makes it extra special. Definitely a must-try spot!

It used to be really good. The quality of food went down drastically last year. I guess they have changed the chef recently?

First time coming and we were not disappointed! The food was delicious and staff were extremely helpful as I had many questions. We will definitely go back.

The rice they use for their Hainan chicken was perfection. They only serve it on Fridays, the rice came seasoned like how you would expect it from a traditional Hainan restaurant in Asia. The kaosoi was well seasoned with yellow curry. For dessert we got the mango sticky rice, the rice was a bit sweet but the coconut milk balanced it out.

I'm only giving a 4 because I haven't tried their actual food menu, the only thing I tried was the mango rice which is so delicious, if you haven't tried it do so it's so good. The rice is perfectly cooked. The coconut dressing that goes on it is Soo good. I still need to try more items but so far this one is the winner for sure.
Delicious! Pork ball soup & all the curry!
Food is top notch and doesn't take long from ordering. The only complaint is that the indoor sitting is really packed together and the outside seating doesn't have overhangs.
