50 Best Thai Restaurants near Harbor City

“Absolutely amazing service, and the food was even better. I had the Pad See Ew lunch special and Thai Tea. The food was rich in flavor and filling. Definitely can't wait to go back to try something new. Very excited I discovered this place!“

“Delicious, top notch flavor! This is probably the best Thai food I've ever had. My partner and I are slowly working our way through the menu and so far we've had: Pad Kee Mao, Tom Kha chicken soup, Tom Yum chicken soup, Kaprao, Green Curry with chicken, and the mango sticky rice.

I think my favorite has been the Tom Kha soup. The coconut and lime base is such an addictive flavor profile and I was thinking about it for days afterwards.

I hope they can maintain their quality with the scheduled reopening in 2026!“

“Great authentic Cambodian food, and one of the best service I’ve received by the waitress compared to anywhere else I’ve been to in Long Beach .“

“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.“

“Good food good service nice to smile“

“my favorite spot for that food...always FIRE!!! ( and the owners are the nicest people) ..I have the best time there!“

“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"“

“Unassuming restaurant, but once you enter your welcomed with nice music and great customer service. I ordered the shrimp fried rice. It was a bit of a mushy texture, like if you cook rice a tad too long. Flavor was pretty good, Hoisin sauce was definitely needed. Overall nice place. If in area and need a quick bite. Stop here to try some dishes or the 15 dollar lunch special.“

“Pad See Ew is delicious! 🤤 their Thai tea is great too!!!“

“This place is legit! Every dish was delicious and flavorful. Our waitress, First, was so kind helpful. We got the veggie fried rice, tom kha soup, crying tiger beef, and sticky rice with coconut ice cream. Highly recommend, if you get the chance, come eat here. You will be happy and full!“

“Wish we had this amazing cafe back home. The menu? There were so many appetizing choices, it was hard to choose! 😊The food is super yummy and the people who run it are so sweet!“

“The atmosphere and Sid the owner so friendly and makes you feel so welcome ...awesome food and love the Thai ice tea“

“Food and service was excellent. Food came out quick and hot. Nice portions. We had the crispy garlic chicken which all the kids loved. For the entree, we had pad see ew, ramen and green curry. Everyone was happy with their dishes. Also very clean!“

“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.“

“We’ll definitely come back! Everything is good!“

“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!“

“Pretty good restaurant with authentic flavors. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the dishes are interesting, like the special lobster pad Thai and soft shell crab pad Thai. The lobster one seemed especially popular, so I might give it a try next time. There’s only 1 bathroom, so good luck during rush hour.“

“A wonderful little Thai place, seating is a bit limited as it seems more of a takeout/delivery place but it's never too crowded that you can't sit down.
The food is incredible, and the service is on the same level. Highly recommend if you're anywhere near the area.“

“I have been going to this place for a long time, the food always hits the spot and the staff is very kind and friendly. The restaurant on its own is clean and very aesthetically pleasing. The staff have always created such an atmosphere that feels like so very welcoming, the food is very delicious! I pray they have many more successful years in business!“

“Amazing flavors! Everything we ordered was delicious. The coconut soup was rich and comforting, the chicken pad thai had the perfect balance of flavor, and the shrimp fried rice was fresh and tasty. You can really tell care goes into the food. Definitely coming back!“

“The food is amazing 10/10 but the outdoor patio dinning is awful. You cannot have a conversation because the sound echos so loudly and when the staff moves tables around they drag it along the tile and all of the tables have to stop and wait till they are done to be able to speak again with your table.“

“I had lunch yesterday with friends and I ordered the eggplant dish. It was absolutely DELICIOUS and came with a salad and rice. The service was excellent and the prices are quite reasonable. I'm looking forward to a return visit!!“

“Came here for the Tom Yum soup and Pad Thai — both were absolutely delicious and served sizzling hot. The service was superb, even though we arrived around 8:00 p.m. (they close at 8:30). The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and visually appealing. Highly recommend!“

“Quick and tasty? Fresh and affordable? Authentic and accommodating? This is the spot when you want a meal that fits all of those categories. Each dish has rich flavor and abundant spices without feeling heavy. I love the papaya salad, curries with tofu, and every dish pairs perfectly with the dedicated service. It’s phenomenal when the front of house and back of house work together seamlessly in a restaurant and this is certainly true for Long Beach Thai. They also have Thai market items like durian, stuffed pumpkin, and sweet treats for purchase at the counter. The servers are very good at letting you know that a dish has peanuts in it and asking if you have an allergy. They run an equally efficient dine-in experience as they do for carry out. Love to support businesses that offer consistency of this caliber. Check them out!“

“amazing food and service! My husband and I used to live nearby and always came when it was Tai Silk. We now live in San Pedro but we'll be back for sure.“

“Authentic Thai style. Well the coffee is really authentically super sweet (exactly like in Thailand!)“

“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!“

“Had a nice dinner here at Bowl Thai. You order your food upfront like Rubio’s, and they bring your food to your table. We had their crab fried rice, the texture and seasoning was good it wasn’t dry. We also enjoyed the shrimp pad thai, and they were very generous with the shrimp. Will definitely be back to try other delicious dishes.“

“Awesome Thai food at an amazing price. The owners are super friendly fun locals that make you feel like you're having dinner at their home. Thai Dishes has their flavors down pat! We tried the Panang Curry with Tofu and it was excellent. The Garlic Pepper with Tofu is addictive. Highly recommend dining in, or ordering it to take out! My favorite Thai place in Redondo Beach.“

“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.“

“I've been eating here since I was around 12 years old. Raised in Torrance, this was my go-to-place for a dinner that just hits the spot. I love all the soup, noodle, and rice dishes, I think I've tried every chicken and vegetarian dish this place has to offer. I don't live in Torrance anymore, but whenever I come back to visit family I never fail to stop by here to eat, still tastes sooo good! What's also nice is the owner still recognizes me :) Overall great service and food!“

“The food was very good! I will be visiting again“

“The food is excellent - loved the spice and flavor in the spicy Thai fried rice with black rice and Pad kee mao, as well as the taro boba tea. Ayla was amazing - we were a party of 6 and hadn’t realized that 18% tip was included, tipped again. Ayla pointed that out to us - an extra star for her honesty. We’ll back soon !“

“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.“

“muy buena comida y el servicio muy amable.“

“This little thai spot was amazing! I highly recommend it! The white fish was BOMB! the outer layer was crispy, inside was nice and moist, the curry sauce was a perfect combo! If you like seafood this is a must order. We also go their green beans with beef and it was really good! Its a small place with indoor and outdoor dinning! Highly recommend it!“

“excellent, delicious and authentic“

“Lovely service from the waitress. She was very sweet and hospitable. This location is ideal for 2 people. There’s only one large table in the center of the restaurant. We ordered the fried rice and added chicken. We also got the pad see ew and added beef. Both dishes were flavorful and delicious. The only disappointment were the crab ragoons. I’m used to a thicker cream cheese taste with the bits of crab and these had more of a liquid-ish cheese with bell peppers. In all fairness, I personally do not like bell peppers. The ragoons do not deter me from returning. I would definitely come back.“

“I think this is the only Thai place I can bring my parents to. No major complaints from them, which is a damn near impossible feat. Will need to come back to try the specialty dishes. None of the food was too sweet, salty, or greasy. Lovely atmosphere for a dinner. Plenty of parking.

We got the Panang curry, Ka Pow fried rice, and Pad Thai“

“Was working nearby looking for dinner to go. Asked if they can accommodate for gluten free, certain menu items yes(confirmed with an older woman, she was super sweet).Tom Yum Soup, Pad Thai, Pad Woon Sen, and one of the salads. AMAZING! Best Thai I've had in a decade, especially for my allergy. I will be back and will continue to order from here“

“Now we don't have to go to Thai Town to get tam khanun (underripe jackfruit dip/salad) and other northern Thai specialties! Easy ordering from their website online, easy pick up. Just watch out how spicy it is, it's spicy for Thai people. The lunch combos are a great deal. The fried shallot turmeric rice was so fragrant! I'm not used to getting sticky rice that tasty just by itself.“

“The Service Is Wonderful The Staff Is Also Helpful Thai Barbeque Food Was Wonderful Jasmine Rice Was Also Wonderful As Well Two Refills Of Sprite Soda Drink Too Wow I Would Love To Go Again Very Soon Thanks I Give Sirinat Thai Five Stars From Alexander“

“Every other good opinion about this place is valid. In the midst of a place that can be so chaotic; this place a calm, serene type of atmosphere. Taste and texture were on point. Everything well balanced, service was prompt and prices were fair and the place was clean. It's actually difficult to find a place that checks this many boxes at once but this place was quietly impressive.. this place gets a high recommended from me.“

“Everything is Good there.The Crying Tiger is my favorite and the combination fried rice.The staff is very friendly and professional. Just went there today so try it you will love it there.“

“The food is good, especially the noodle dishes. The restaurant is clean and the service is friendly.

Unfortunately, I bit into eggshells in the Pad See Ew, which made the experience unpleasant. I hope the cook can be more careful when preparing the dish. Overall, still a good meal.“

“Food is delicious. Easily the best Thai food ever. The tiger wings are better than most wing flavors else where. The cashew nut shrimp was finger licking good. Service is great and food is also affordable. Do your tummy a favor and come here!!!“

“Best Thai in Bixby Knolls!“

“Pad thai
Pad se ew
Thai fried rice
Chicken larb
Tom yum soup
Thai iced tea
Mostly authentic Thai flavors. They have Thai chili peppers in fish sauce. Fast and friendly service. Limited parking in small shared lot.“

“Phi Thai Eatery is surprisingly good. We had the green curry, tom yum soup, pad thai, pad see ew, and veggie spring rolls, all of which they were able to make vegan and all of which were delicious. It was a life-saving meal after midnight when there’s almost nothing else open that has vegan fare, much less scrumptious, spicy eats like you find here!“

“Very good Pad See Eww Chicken and Chow Mein Chicken here! And also their Thai Iced Coffee and Thai Tea are also equally good here. I always place an order online for pick up and its always ready by the time I pick up. If you're craving Thai food and are near here I definitely would say to check it out.“
