The food, the treatment from the owner, is just 6 stars in my book the flavors is just something I haven't had In a long time. I can not describe the quality of the flavors, just amazing. Best Thai food in los angeles.

In a city full of trendy spots with little soul this place is the exact opposite. The vibes are immaculate. It feels like a place Bourdain would love and once you try the food so will you
The Jade noodles are great. You have to get them. And the owners were kind enough to show us how to mix them. Make sure you do that
The Chinese broccoli with crispy pork was SO GOOD. Flavors popping everywhere and such a great mix of spices
Most of all these guys treated the customers like family. Even this kid who kept damaging Halloween decorations.
Eat here because it’ll feel like a home cooked meal with new friends

Honestly one of the best all around Thai restaurants in Thai town. Lots of places have one or two specialities they do well but everything here was very good. Friendly service too!
Sai Oua and Jade noodles were great, morning glory helped round out the meal vegetable wise too.

Absolutely delicious first meal at Sapp today—ordered Thai Tea, Everything Boat Noodle, Jade Noodle, and Spring Rolls. The ambience was relaxed (lots of 70s music playing!) and the waiters were very friendly. Especially loved the Everything Boat Noodle, which was chock full of beef, tendon, tripe, pork skin, and more. Both noodle dishes had a perfect level of spice. The restaurant does get busy around dinner time and the parking lot is small, so plan to come earlier if possible. Will definitely be back again!

Boat noodles (beef with everything) were amazing! "Hot" spicy was perfectly manageable for me, but to be honest they're so flavorful they don't need to be very spicy, would probably go for a little less next time.

I got the pad kra pao chicken and it was amazing! The flavor and rice were perfect. Good portion size too. Service was friendly and efficient.
This is Hollywood’s Original Thai spot! Even though “Coffee Shop” is in their name, they only coffee they have there is Thai Iced Coffee. It’s an Undiscovered Gem you should know about!
First thing is first, Parking is a bit small, so if you need to, there should be some street parking across the street.
It's a hole in the wall kind of place, but that typically means the food will be good!
Everyone was very friendly! They made sure that everything came out okay! Made sure that our water was always full, they do a fantastic job!
Food and Drink:
?Boat Noodle Everything: It’s like pho, but with a richer broth. I’m not one for tripe or tendon, but everything together was delicious! It was a very comforting dish to start the meal with!
?Kra Pao Fried Rice: We had ours with chicken, and this must be my favorite Thai fried rice. With the bit of spice, it was delicious. After adding the squeeze of lime juice, it elevated the dish to a whole other level!
?Tamarind and Garlic Wings: My favorite thing ever. The wings were super crispy, the flavors of the tamarind and garlic all throughout, plus the fried basil on top of that to give it that extra essence just tops it all off!
?Sticky Rice: Most of the time, when I get sticky rice, I think of it as something of a dessert, Sapp proved me wrong. It was delicious and having that pared with either the boat noodle or the Tamarind and Garlic Wings was great.
?Mango Sticky Rice: I love the fact that there are two different types of rice here. Plus topped everything off with condensed coconut milk. The rice had a mochi like texture. The mango is a honey type mango, so you can be sure it’s a deliciously sweet mango!
?Thai Tea: You can tell this whole thing was made in house. It’s creamy, the tea was perfect. I need to try the Thai Iced Coffee next time!
There are a couple of menu items that I did order to go that I didn't get pictures of!
?Che Bo Trio: Ohh man, this was a treat! BBQ Pork, Crispy Pork, and Roasted Duck all on top of rice! Then you get the sauces to complement the meats. I enjoyed the crispiness of the crispy pork, and the flavors of the BBQ Pork and Roasted Duck.
?Pad Thai: This was a very light and comforting dish overall. It was full of flavor, wasn’t oily at all. And had to give the dish that hit of lime juice to marry the flavors together. Very much a favorite Pad Thai dish!
This place is amazing! Also got to appreciate the fact that they were the first Thai employer of Alternative Culture! And they have the Oldest Generational Ownership!
Check it out if you can!

We enjoyed the following dishes:
Tamarind & Garlic Wings
Wings were meaty and the tamarind sauce adds even more flavor!
Kra Pao Fried Rice
Simple yet satisfying, the basil seals the deal
Boat Noodle Everything
Flavorful broth and generous with the meats/animal parts
Jade Noodles
Dry noods are my fave, these are yummy spinach noodles with lots of toppings
Mango Sticky Rice
Classic and most favorite Thai dessert, mango was so sweet, and ask for crushed peanuts to sprinkle on!

Was on the Bourdain fished visited locations so decided to give it a try. Very classic late 70s and early 80s vibe Asian eatery meaning Asian food made to beat ability with ingredients that can be sourced locally. Reminiscent of the traditional Chinese chop suey restaurant but Thai in cuisine. The fried rice has excellent "wok hei". A tasty place to visit.
