Enormous portions of food!! Fried rice was nice but pad thai was very average. The north thai dish had a really tasty broth but the noodles and beef wasn’t great. I would recommend having chicken instead. Worth a visit for sure.

This is a must have every time I am in L.A.! The Khao Soi soup here is amazing and the fried dumplings are the best I’ve ever had! It’s a quaint little restaurant that gives a family vibe every time I visit. My first visit years ago was made special by Mrs. Kay, I was sad to hear that she was no longer working here during my last visit. The food is still very good, I would recommend stopping by if you are ever in the area.

One of my FAVORITE Thai restaurants in LA that's serving up dank Northern Thai cuisine. Great portions, fair prices and a great range of flavors...never had a bad dish yet. Also, if you're ever in a chatting mood the story of how this place came to be is heartwarming so be sure to ask for an added humanity bonus.Had the Mixed Salad and WOW ? I was surprised by the array of sweet, salt and spice and it was gone in seconds; twas so nice I'll order it twice. Get over there and enjoy!

I really enjoyed everything I ordered at this place and the name speaks for itself quality food fast delivery at a good price. I have not dined in yet, but plan to do so. So far everything has been to go or delivery.

Most people are looking for the next big thing when it comes to restaurants. Spoiler alert, this place isn't new! It's been under your radar for decades. Family run. 2 generations and counting. Just go. Simple dining area. Small, 6 tables. I could go on but you'll get bored. Have a great time! Try something you haven't tried before. You'll love it!Vegetarian options: Just leave out the proteinDietary restrictions: VeggieParking: Open lot with day attentionKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: You have space

I love Northern Thai food, especially Khao Soi. Spicy BBQ’s Khao Soi has earned a special place in my heart. Every component makes it so extraordinary, especially how well the egg noodles are cooked and the broth (oooooooh, the broth). I’ve had problems where the chicken can be gamey, but not here!I had my very first Kai Kua, and I enjoyed it! Noodles can be heavy, but this had me going back for thirds and fourths! Their Hung Lay is exceptionally robust in flavor, and the pork is tender. And of course, their spicy bbq? Its darn good, but I don’t even have to elaborate on that.They don’t skimp on meat, noodles, or the size of their dishes. It’s truly a family style spot. We shared 4 dishes between 3 hangry people and left with leftovers enough for the three of us! The little details is what I also love- the rose-shaped wrapper in our straws, the roasted peanuts in the Hung Lay, the freshly shaved cabbage resting under the bbq pork, and the spicy vinegar side addition. They don’t come unnoticed to me.All hits here. Staff is lovely, especially Natty. She’s established a great spot that’s deserving of its praises.

Spicy Thai BBQ is my favorite Thai restaurant in the city, and probably my favorite place to eat anywhere for that matter. For my friends and I Spicy Thai is more of an institution than a restaurant. I've been coming here for almost a decade now. I've celebrated birthdays, reunions, and even my post wedding party at Spicy Thai. Truthfully, I must have eaten here over 100 times and I've never had a bad meal. THE FOOD IS INCREDIBLE! I've tried almost every well known Thai restaurant in Los Angeles and keep coming back to Spicy Thai for consistently top notch and authentic Thai food, especially their Norther Thai regional menu. If you're a fan of Larb, Som Tam, Khao Soi, BBQ Pork and Beef, Gaeng Hung Lay, Gaeng Ho, etc. It's all here and it's all great. If I close my eyes while eating Spicy Thai I could swear that I'm back in Thailand. The food is incredibly authentic, and I strongly recommend ordering off of their Northern Thai regional menu. But really, everything is incredible and you can't go wrong. For my money you won't be able to find a better Thai meal anywhere in the region.
