The waitress scolded the customers for bringing in a drink. I get it. But she kept going and going and got loud after they said they understood. Wild. Also, I saw a roach here a while Back. The waitress acted like it was normal.

Amazing thai spot, always open and happy to see you come back. Seafood soup, dumplings, bbq beef, shrimp pad thai, and amazing Thai tea. Love the place atmosphere and 1 tv showing sports or news...perfect background noise. Food taste just as good to go as well. Family been going here forever.

Have been going here for quite a while great food and service was the norm until today. Today I was not only over charged for a mistake the waitress made, but was also given terrible service from the woman with a bowl cut. Sorry but I don't want her any where near me again. Very bad vibe from bowl cut. She was not paying attention to her job. So Vai's I can not visit you again, she ruined my visit.

Server yelled at me for giving my dog a piece of chicken. He must hate animals 😬

This is the second time that I ended up at Yai's. It was just by chance. I was hungry and in the neighborhood and for some reason it always stood out from all the other choices in the neighborhood. The food was decent. Nothing really special but it hits the spot.

OK, I’ve been hesitating to do this review for years but today is the day the food is good. The service is OK but they recently changed the portion size and raised the price. Also ,they’re very stingy with condiments if someone is paying almost $20 for fried rice I think they should be able to get as much hot sauce as they want .The young lady with the short haircut nasty rapport. I’m not sure why but she definitely never wants to give extra hot sauce.

Very disappointed. This was one of our favorite places for Thai food when in the area, it was my wife, our 4 year old daughter, and myself, and sat next to a family and obviously we had separate checks, but when it came time for us to pay we were charge an automatic 18% service fee, because we sat next to another group, how does this make sense they paid for their food we paid for ours and yet the restaurant stuck us with a service fee.
Very disappointed and confused.
Sorry, but you just lost a very good customer, and we'll make sure to tell others not to go there, or you'll be charged an automatic service fee of 18% on top of your bill

Excellent service. Excellent food. Call ahead for to go orders if you are in a rush. Very vegetarian friendly. I love their Chinese broccoli with garlic. Their Jungle Curry with tofu is very delicious. Their white rice is tasty and great quality grain. I have been coming here enough to be able to identify their rice from other places. Lol.

I have been experiencing health issues and their food is very comforting and brings me back to life. This Mexican considers it an alternative to my mom’s cooking. The staff makes this place stand out immediately as they are very family friendly and are attentive to guests.💞💞💞🫶🏾😭⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

ORDERED CHICKEN PAD THAI NOODLES; MOST PLACES MAKE THEM SPICY ALREADY BUT THIS PLACE DOESNT

TASTED LIKE NASTY FAUCET WATER; ESPECIALLY THE VEGGIES AND HERBS. NOT EVEN MY CURRENTLY 10 YEAR OLD BROTHER USES THAY WATER FOR CUP OF NOODLES. WOW IS ALL I GOTTA SAY AND NOT COMING BACK.

THAI IN WHITTIER OFF GREENLEAF AND THAI 365 ARE MY GO TO; WHITTIER MORE PRICEY BUT THE BEST OF BEST AND 365 DAILY SPECIALS BEATS THIS SPOT BY MILES FOR LESS

FRIENDLY SERVENTS AT LEAST AND NICE RESTAURANT BUT THAT PAD THAI ISNT IT LOL3000

My friends kept complaining about the food, but honestly, I felt it was OK. I don't know what Authentic Thai food tastes like, but I felt the dishes I ordered were definitely more influenced by neighboring regions. The Fried Rice and Paht Kee Mao were stir-fried right. Not super oily, so that seasoned Wok flavor was there. On point! I mean, I couldn't complain.
