50 Best Thai Restaurants in Los Angeles

“Farmhouse kitchen is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. On top of the food being great and delicious, the presentation makes you want to order everything from the menu. Chef Bo was so nice to come out to our table and all I can say is she was a very nice, young & talented person. She even made me a special dessert for my birthday. Thanks Bo❤️ I highly recommend this place if you want an authentic, excellent and delicious food. In addition, the place is so full of life. The decor is amazing! I can’t wait to go back and try some of the fancy drinks and dishes on the menu.“

“Great service, tasty food, and amazing views. Good brunch spot.“

“Kinkan feels like a love letter to flavor. We came to celebrate a friend’s birthday and left feeling nourished in every way. Each dish was beautifully crafted, delicate yet bold. Perfect for a quiet celebration, a romantic date, or a night to remember. A true neighborhood treasure.“

“Pailin Thai Cuisine was the first place we had dinner when we arrived in LA in August 2024. It is some of the best Thai food we have ever had. The dishes are kept simple (as they should be) and at the same time the flavor combination is fantastic. Only five stars and a huge recommendation from here. In addition, the price is more than fair - it is the cheapest (but the best) meal we have had so far on our tour of California.“

“อาหารอร่อย บริการดีมากๆครับ 😇🙏🏻“

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

“Best Thai food in LA! 🔥🔥🔥“

“If I could give Tuk Tuk Thai on Sawtelle in W. L.A. six stars, I would. They serve, hands down, the best Thai food I have tasted outside of Thailand. We were blown away by everything...the delicious, creative, authentic, clean food with the freshest ingredients , the cute, funky, casual and intimate space and exceptional hospitality. We ate incredible tasty, innovative and beautiful dishes such as mouthwatering fresh scallops and shrimp dumplings, duck, Wagyu beef and a killer pad Thai to name a few. The servers and kitchen were flexible to accommodate our parties' diverse dietary requirements and did so with pleasure and grace. I highly recommend you to run, not walk, to try this W.L.A gem..I cannot wait to go back!“

“Excellent service! The food is good especially the deep fried soft shell crabs!“

“The taste is very strong“

“Recommended to me by most locals, I knew as a traveler I had to pop by and see what all the hype was about. And let me tell you? The praise is not only rightfully deserved, but also doesn’t Amphai a service. The food exceeded the praise in the best of ways, filling and fulfilling in every way.“

“Food was good. The chicken wings were crispy and fresh. Noodles and broth tasted very well and good seasoned. The staff were all amazing and accommodating. My grandmother was not feeling well, and one of the staff gave her medicine making her feel better. Overall 10/10; have to go for authentic Thai food.“

“the food is good. the only complaint is they pack alot of people in a small area.“

“Yes, this shop has very good service 🥰“

“When I went there because it was recommended to me, it was so crowded that I couldn't eat inside.

I tried to make a reservation through Google in advance, but I was unable to make a reservation due to a mysterious error.

I couldn't give up and ordered takeout.

There aren't many items on the takeout menu, but it's by far the most delicious Thai food I've ever eaten.

I've eaten Thai food in many countries, but even take-out food is so delicious that next time I'll definitely eat it freshly prepared at the restaurant.“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“my go to Thai place in LA“

“Everything that I oder was tested good. And nice servers.“

“Delicious and the service was great.“

“Hi-nan rice is the reason I stop by there almost every chance I have on my way home. The staff are friendly and can wa irk their magic in the grill.“

“Overall, a nice & chill Thai restaurant. Great food, nicely served.

I don’t go often to Thai spots, since this one was on my list, I was looking forward to try!

We came on a Sunday for a lunch and it was pretty quiet. We sat outside. They had a few good options, we got Thai dumplings (chicken & veggies), chicken satay, pad thai and pad see ew.

The starts were good. The chicken satay with that peanut sauce was delicious.
The pad thai and pad see ew had really nice portions for us - maybe having starters helped make us full faster. But, i still felt like portions were generous. The food was tasty, good in my opinion. Again, not an expert here but it was to my taste.

We left the place satisfied, so I would definitely recommend for anyone around to try. Easy and simple Thai restaurant.“

“Fast service and nice employees.“

“We stumbled upon an absolute gem upon our recent visit to Hollywood. Our waitress was very kind and seemed pleased that we were going to enjoy lunch in her restaurant. We ordered the radish cakes and basil pork with rice. Both dishes were phenomenal, well-seasoned, fresh, and appropriate portions. Would highly recommend this establishment to anyone! Be sure to bring cash, as this is a cash-only restaurant as of the time I wrote this review. 10/10“

“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!“

“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 friend took is to Si Laa Thai Restaurant for dinner this evening. The food was delicious and service was good. I will go again definitely.“

“Fancy restaurant with extremely courteous, personable and friendly service, who informed us about the levels of spiciness. We really enjoyed the meal and the starter salad was extremely delicious and spicy, despite the fact that we got the “not spicy” version. The large main courses (Pad Thai and drunken noodles with pastrami) were unbeatably fresh and delicious. It is very crowded and too loud and shrill inside for our taste, but you can sit comfortably and quietly outside in the evening! Absolute recommendation!

“Boat noodle & minced garlic 🐔 over rice were exceptionally tasty. If you are looking for authentic Thai food this is the place to come go. It’s a small parking lot with few parking but there are plenty of street parking. Come one come all and bring your empty tummy to be filled here.“

“I was looking for a quick lunch while I was out walking my dogs. I was craving Thai food and stumbled upon this place with a few small tables outside. The staff were really friendly and even brought water out for the pets. The menu is extensive and I appreciated the photos of each dish because it helped me order new items I haven’t tried. The food came out quickly and was really good. I recommend!

“Great food, great atmosphere“

“Classic Thai Restaurant, and the food is always delicious!
It was a reasonable price, with a nice portion and fresh ingredients. I asked for Mild, and they nicely accommodated my request.
I can never get old with the roast duck in red curry, and we started with the duck salad, which has lots of flavorful nuts and herbs.“

“Their zaab pork belly rice bowl is phenomenal. I have not been in person to this restaurant, but I went to a festival where they had a booth and served it. The meat was perfectly crispy on the outside and succulent and juicy inside. The hints of lime juice complemented the meat in a way that makes me think about it. If you like pork belly, this place is a great place to get it.“

“Loved our lunch here! We ordered 3 dishes and were impressed with them all. Super authentic Thai food with quick and friendly service. Our waitress was very nice and packed our to-go boxes for us, she even gave us extra sticky rice to take home!“

“This shop has so many yummy items. Some are snacks from Thailand while others they make fresh in house. I can't get enough of the bbq pork skewers that they put out around lunch time. Another favor is the coconut jelly. There are a lot of desserts I'm not familiar with so I like trying them all. Nothing disappoints if you're a fan of coconut.“

“The food is amazing and will have you ordering more items from the menu. 5 Stars!“

“Great place. Food always good. And very fresh And delicious. Service very friendly. Grand central. Always busy. But you guys are great.“

“The food truck showed up in Playa Vista the other night so we decided to give it a try. Great $10 pad see ew noodle with great flavors. Probably not as good as from a legit restaurant but a good pass for food truck. The portion is generous and can feed two people“

“Amazing food! Lunch specials are super affordable M-F. I definitely recommend it!“

“I had a really rough day and the woman there made my day! Then to top it off the orange chicken and jasmine rice made all my problems go away. The butterfly lemonade soothed my soul.

I love this place! Can't wait to go back. Been there twice already.“

“Hi-nan rice is the reason I stop by there almost every chance I have on my way home. The staff are friendly and can wa irk their magic in the grill.“

“Excellent service, wonderful staff.“

“The decorations in this place is so cool, there’s a lot Thai decorations that make a good ambience. The food was very delicious. When I arrived there was nobody here and within minutes there was a full house showing how good the place actually is and then the service was quick.“

“Just landed in LA from Seattle and found this place as we were searching for a spot to grab food. The atmosphere is great. They use tablets with great photos of all the food. On the tablets you’re able to order all your food and send it directly to the kitchen to be prepared. The food came out quickly and HOT! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area. Be ready for great service and even better food!“

“best Thai food I've ever had and I have lived in Thailand“

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

“Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — Hae Ha Heng Thai Bistro nails it with both their Pad Thai and Papaya Salad.

The Pad Thai is perfectly stir-fried with tender chicken, chewy rice noodles, and a rich, balanced sauce. Topped with crisp bean sprouts, shredded carrots, and a lime wedge for a fresh kick.

The Papaya Salad is a vibrant mix of crunchy veggies, peanuts, shrimp, and that signature Thai tangy-spicy flavor. Super refreshing and visually stunning!

Both dishes are a delicious blend of tradition and presentation. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
