50 Best Thai Restaurants near Pacoima

“I’ve been going here since I was a young girl and my family and I are well acquainted with the staff. Everyone is polite and the food is absolutely phenomenal. For family dining we order their seafood soup with their fried rice. Do not be off put by the disposition of the staff, I believe they have solemn expressions because they are from a different culture. They aren’t rude just don’t fake their expressions 🤷🏽“

“Not many Thai food in this area first try love it“

“The sweet lady at the counter told me everything on the menu was good after I asked. And once I ate my food I understood completely. I ordered some wonton soup. It’s the best I’ve had in LA 😋 but i definitely believe everything else on the menu is equally as fire. It was so yummy“

“Clean area food are delicious. Specially I love the mango sticky rice“

“Nice and cozy place with delicious Thai foods.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic Thai Taste & Chef-Level Pad See Ew! 🇹🇭🥢

I ordered the Pad See Ew. I absolutely loved it and couldn't stop praising the dish! The flavor is so authentically Thai, it feels exactly like eating at one of those famous, top-tier restaurants back in Thailand.

What makes this dish truly special is that subtle, beautiful smoky flavor from the wok (Wok Hei). You can immediately tell that it takes a highly skilled, professional chef to master the heat and achieve this perfection. Another huge plus is that the noodles aren't overly greasy at all, unlike many other places we've tried. The balance is just right.

If you are looking for authentic Thai food crafted with the skill of a master chef, you absolutely have to try Lamoon. Highly recommended! 10/10!“

“A must-stop whenever I'm in the Valley. LaVo specializes in Thai fusion pizzas. The Thai Curry Chicken and Pad Kapao Gai (Spicy Basil Chicken) are standouts, and the Tom Yum Pizza is worth trying too. Spice is adjustable, which is great for groups with varying tastes. They also have a full Thai menu with a solid range of noodle dishes if pizza isn't your thing. Consistently excellent.“

“Great food and The people there are so nice!!! Love to support places like this!“

“Really good Lao food. First time at this Lao restaurant. My new favorite place 😍“

“They have both inside and outside seating areas. Service is great.“

“💯 % recommend go now and try“

“Test its by yourself.clean foods and good service“

“This is definitely my new favorite tai restaurant. I’ve been eating different places for a long time and thought my favorite was in the valley. Randomly decided to stop here and I am NEVER disappointed! Plus the lady pat is so nice and attentive , 6 “

“OMG this place is fire. Don't judge the restaurant by the exterior. It truly is a hole-in-the-wall, hidden gem. I was losing hope in LA restaurants (we're visiting from NorCal) but this was honestly the best Thai food I've ever had! We tried the Panang Curry with Tofu and the Drunken Noodles with Tofu. EXCELLENT VEGETARIAN OPTIONS!! Everything tasted homemade, authentic, and most of all, FRESH! I can't wait to return and try other dishes :)“

“Kim Thai Food is an excellent spot for authentic Thai cuisine. The flavors are rich and bold, with dishes like pad thai and green curry cooked perfectly every time. The portions are generous, prices are fair, and the staff makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere that makes dining here enjoyable whether it’s takeout or dine-in. Definitely a go-to for delicious Thai food.“

“Bro.. just moved to the area early this year, my partner and I decided to find a lunch spot close by. Looked at reviews and decided to give this spot a try. WHAT?! Hidden gem!! The service- server was super friendly, helpful, and super quick!, Thai tea slapped! (Must get), zap wings - I do think need a sauce so we are taking home to create our own, fried chicken (GET THIS! Moist, but crunchy and soooo yummy, papaya salad(my partner said in her 33 years on earth this is the #2 all time best papaya salad she’s ever had(#1 is her moms), mango sticky rice was perfect- will be coming back for JUST this sometimes 😂
Oh yea I got yellow chicken curry to go so I’ll report later how that is 😂

You must MUST try this place.
It’s very small only 4 tables inside, so it was perfect daytime lunch date spot. Shit my partner and I were talking about which coworkers we were bringing here next 😂

Super clean inside. Seems like a lot of afternoon parking in the lot it’s in, not sure about night.

Hope this review helped you decide to try this spot cause HOT DAMN that was fire 🔥

Our bill was a lot but we got a bunch of stuff to try lol if you only buy one or two things it’s easily cheap“

“Stopped in for a late lunch, got quick service and great food! The spicy garlic dumplings were AMAZING! Generous portions of meat in the lunch specials. I had Pad See Ew with beef and my partner had the Chow Main with chicken. So glad we stopped in! Will be back!“

“Everything was Awesome! Great food and Atmosphere!“

“11/26/2025

It's my first time here in this simple looking hidden gem and I had a great experience. They barely opened when I came so the store was clean. Their menu had so many variations of Thai food and most of them looked delicious.

I ordered the Thai coffee, shrimp and pork spring rolls, steamed pot stickers and the seafood combination fried rice with added chicken.
The Thai iced cofee were very good, although I am not really a coffee person, I liked it.
Their pork and shrimp eggrolls were not bad and the steamed pot stickers were awesome.

The fried rice came with shrimp, squid, and 4 pieces if fried fish plus I asked them to add some chicken on it. It was fantastic!
I could finish it all because the portion was generous and i only cost $40 something dollar for everything.“

“The food here is always amazing and the workers are very nice! We recommend the Hawaiian fried rice and the garlic shrimp! Also don’t worry it’s every clean and a very comforting environment :) I always recommend Siam rice to my friends and family!!“

“My husband and I were so happy to find this local Thai treasure. I'm always searching for pad Thai with the really thin noodles and this is one of the few. It's now replaced our previous choice for regular takeout (and we used to live in Hollywood next to the Thai town). We had the hidden treasure, beef satay and loved those too.
Love the service here too, though that rarely influences my restaurant ratings.“

“This place is a hidden gem imo, Service is always fast and nice, the food is always fresh, and compared to other spots the price is reasonable for the portions. I’ve been ordering togo for a while now and my mom loves the garlic green beans w/ seafood so I can confidently say that I would recommend to anyone in the area craving thai.“

“Fantastic food, fair prices, friendly service. Thank you, Sam and the staff, we enjoyed the food and the company. The place feels warm. The food we took to our fellows in the office got many compliments. Thank you,“

““We have been coming to Thai Victory with our whole family — my husband and our children — for the past two years 😊 We absolutely love this place, especially the Tom Yum and Pad Thai 🍜🔥 We have been living in America for three years and have tried Thai food in many places, but this is the only place we truly enjoyed.
We would also like to highlight the service: very kind and pleasant people ❤️ We met a young family who work there and are the owners of the restaurant. They always treat us with warmth and care, and we are very happy to have met such wonderful people 🙏 We sincerely recommend this place from the bottom of our hearts 💛”“

“I visited this place on 04/07/2026, and saying that I liked it would be an understatement.

The service was 100 out of 10. The waiter knew the menu very well and was able to make great recommendations. I ordered the coconut milk soup with seafood, and it was absolutely delicious. There was a lot of seafood in it, and the portion was very generous.

We also ordered chicken and drinks. Honestly, the amount of food they brought us could easily feed three people. For $49 total, it was definitely worth it.

I also want to mention the honesty and kindness of the staff. I accidentally left my AirPods at the table, and the waitress found my car in the parking lot and personally returned them to me. That really impressed me and says a lot about the level of service and care they provide.

The atmosphere was calm, pleasant, and very welcoming. I definitely recommend this place and would be happy to come back again.“

“Street-Style Thai Flavors & Generous Portions

Bua Siam Thai is a total gem in Panorama — every bite feels like you’re standing at a busy food stall somewhere in Thailand. The flavors are bold, vibrant, and incredibly satisfying.

I had the Pad See Ew and Tom Yum soup, and I highly recommend trying them together. The savory richness of the noodles combined with the spicy-sour heat of the soup creates an unforgettable mix of exotic flavors.

Portions are super generous, the menu is filled with authentic Thai options, and everything is made fresh and served hot. If you’re looking for a meal that hits the spot and takes your taste buds on a trip, Bua Siam absolutely delivers.“

“My husband and I just had pineapple fried rice, pad thai, red curry salmon, and papaya salad. EVERYTHING was top notch and better than any other Thai restaurant we have ever been to, including Original Thai BBQ, which was our go to restaurant for almost 50 years!! Truly, a hidden gem!!“

“The restaurant is very clean and the food is tasty. My favorite is fried tofu, I cannot find this menu from any restaurant. Food presentation is very simple but very tasty. I do recommend fried rice, it’s simple and difficult to cook. _/\_“

“Went here last week for the first time ..I ordered the pad see ew beef (was bomb), egg rolls (didn't even need the sauce freaking good) and Thai ice tea (huge and delicious).. Customer service was excellent, very friendly.. good prices.. gonna go back and try the rice bowl curry and a soup.. worth the drive from Boyle Heights.“

“We had such a great experience at Siam Cafe Thai Food! The food was absolutely delicious — super flavorful and fresh. The service was amazing too; everyone was very kind and attentive. They even surprised us with a complimentary dessert, which was such a sweet touch! Highly recommend this place if you love authentic Thai food and great hospitality.“

“Well I had not eaten here since my late friend Omar was still around and they would always help us out them with anything extra they had and were just going to throw away anyways ...so when I recently came here for dinner , they remembered me and hooked me up proper ...the food is great and the service better than most and at a decent price too so I am giving a solid five star rating....

Vegetarian options: They have a decent vegetarian section on the menu...

Dietary restrictions: Decent selections if you are on a diet....

Parking: There is plenty of parking if not in the parking lot out front or on the street, then there is always extra parking in the back too...

Kid-friendliness: Sort of kid friendly..

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for those who are in wheelchairs...“

“Absolutely loved this place. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every dish. The Thai flavors were authentic and comforting, and the portions were generous.

The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere made it a great spot to sit back and enjoy a meal. Everything came out hot and beautifully presented. This is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to and recommending to anyone craving great Thai food.“

“First time excellent fresh food ..Live the appetizers“

“First time at this restaurant, recommended by a good friend, food was delicious, will definitely come back.“

“Best pad thai I have ever had! Customer service is amazing considering that it's one older gentleman running the place all alone. The pad see ew was so flavorful as well. The prices are phenomenal. Please support this business before the man retires and you lose your opportunity to enjoy the delicious cuisine 😊“

“So good. I love it!😋👌👌👌“

“Staff members are also so friendly and welcoming. The food is so delicious and made fresh as you order. Great job to the cooks. The Tai tea is delicious. The servers are always so friendly and we always see the older gentleman who might be the owner and is always so friendly. Great job everyone.“

“The vibe is awesome, cozy, chill, and full of good energy. The staff are friendly, and the food was amazing!
Only thing — the service was a bit on island time but honestly, it’s hard to complain when everything tastes this good. We’ll definitely be back… hopefully by then they’ve leveled up to “fast & fabulous“

“The best pad Thai I’ve ever had. I drive 30 miles just to have it“

“This Thai restaurant in the San Fernando Valley is the best one I've ever dined at (well, I usually get it to go). I order their food about 2 times a month, since I work nearby. The meals are always correct, and they are quick to prepare it. The staff is very pleasant, a nice change from the hustle and bustle of being in a big city. The food IS DELICIOUS!!! I usually order a lunch meal (very affordable) or the Panang Salmon. So good! If you like Thai food and have not tried Thai Tasty on Roscoe Blvd (I think it's across from where the old Van Nuys Drive-In used to be), I suggest you give them a try. Take out or dine-in. They have a really cute and clean small restaurant.
For the money, flavor and good service, you can't beat this authentic Thai restaurant!!!“

“OMG! Soooooo flavorful and yummy! Crispy rice salad, larb, big ol portion of pad thai, tom yum soup, all really really good! This hidden gem is easily one of the BEST Thai restaurants in Los Angeles. Friendly service and perfectly cooked sticky rice puts this place over the top!“

“Food was really good, great service🙂“

“Hailing from the Northeast region of Thailand, Isan cuisine is the unapologetic, bold, and rustic soul of Thai street food. It’s less about the creamy coconut curries you find in the south and more about high-impact flavors: intense lime, fiery chilies, pungent fermented fish sauce, and plenty of crunch.
Forget the fork. In Isan culture, you use your fingers to roll the sticky rice into small balls, using them as a vessel to scoop up the juices and sauces.“

“A new food place!!! Really liked the pad se ew and ofc the mango sticky rice. The whole shop is ran by a sweet older lady and tastes just like a home cooked meal my mom would make me. Highly recommend. Parking can be a little annoying so I’m jealous of the people who live in the building because I would come here weekly if I was living upstairs.“

“Best thai food love coming here“

“First time trying this place.
We got a couple of lunch specials, one Pad Thai and another Pad See Ew. We also tried the Pork Jerky.

Everything was good. Nothing outstanding but all was what I was looking for. I'd say the Pad See Ew was the most flavorful. My wife liked the Pork Jerky.

It was a comfortable environment and the staff were nice.“

“Beautiful restaurant , delicious food and Very good service.“
