50 Best Thai Restaurants near Signal Hill

“The food is fabulous every time I try to call in an order. Nobody wants to pick up when I go to pick up the order. They don't recognize females as much as they recognize. Men.
For example, I'm standing there 15 minutes. Waiting for the lady to ask me what I'm there for and she didn't, so I sat down to wait. A man came in and she instantly said, are you here for pick up or to eat?“

“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"“

“I drive from Los Angeles to San Pedro just to eat his food at least once a month and this can tell you how delicious this food is I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. One of my favorite dishes is chicken, red curry mild with a steamed rice. They have so many dishes and for dessert I always ask for a mango sticky rice.“

“feedback regarding my recent visit to your Gardena location on Father's Day. I traveled all the way from Orange County specifically to try your mango sticky rice.

While I found the mango sticky rice to be good, I felt the price was a bit higher than other places I have visited, and I likely wouldn't make the long drive solely for that dish again. On a positive note, I really enjoyed the coconut jellies; the flavor was great and the size was satisfying, though I believe the pricing for those could also be improved.

Thank you for the meal and for taking the time to read my feedback.“

“Great authentic Cambodian food, and one of the best service I’ve received by the waitress compared to anywhere else I’ve been to in Long Beach .“

“Good food good service nice to smile“

“my favorite spot for that food...always FIRE!!! ( and the owners are the nicest people) ..I have the best time there!“

“The food is amazing 10/10 but the outdoor patio dinning is awful. You cannot have a conversation because the sound echos so loudly and when the staff moves tables around they drag it along the tile and all of the tables have to stop and wait till they are done to be able to speak again with your table.“

“Pad See Ew is delicious! 🤤 their Thai tea is great too!!!“

“I shall Thai my best, to find something good for lunch

Occupying the former location of Hanako, we've dined at the second previous tenant of this address, prior to Hanako. I've been meaning to come by Pudtarn Thai Cuisine because I'm a huge fan of Thai food, and Lunch Specials are an affordable option. This day seemed just the moment to try another local Thai restaurant for takeout.

Lunch Special Pad Thai-
Choice of protein (beef + $1, shrimp + $2), with rice, salad & egg roll. Oh, how have I missed pad Thai. Pudtarn's version hit the spot for my Thai food fix. Had the perfect amount of sour to sweet. Portions were generous, too.

Chicken satay-
Five tender, succulent sticks of chicken, served with creamy peanut sauce. Great accompaniment to the noodles, the pieces of chicken were delicious, especially when smothered in the sauce.

Service was good. A good amount of seating inside, the wait for takeout wasn't too long, since I was the first customer of the day. Parking can be somewhat difficult to come by, as some spaces are designated for the business in front of them. Hard to find on it's own, Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is located west of the car wash on the corner of Bloomfield & Centralia.

Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is a solid Thai eatery, and I'm definitely looking forward to visiting, again, in the near future. Their lunch specials are affordable, and provide an ample amount of food. Pudtarn Thai Cuisine has earned their spot in my food rotation list.“

“If restaurants were books, Krata would have the world's most misleading cover.

From the outside, it's easy to drive right past this little strip mall spot. Inside? Beautiful, clean, welcoming, and serving some seriously delicious Thai food.

The Yellow Curry and Massaman Curry were both outstanding, full of rich, balanced flavor. The service was warm and attentive.

Consider this your sign to ignore the curb appeal and go inside. Your taste buds will thank you. We'll absolutely be back.“

“Tried this place for their lunch special the other day with a friend and we were blown away at how good it was. Standard dishes like Pad See Ew and Pad Thai were next level compared to other Thai places in taste and freshness. So if the easy dishes are that good - rest of the food must be incredible. Will definitely be coming here frequently!“

“I just ate here for the first time and it was incredible and I loved the non alcohol drink flight!“

“Best Thai food, Very good service, and clean dining place“

“Having heard of its excellent reputation, I visited this restaurant for lunch. Although they offer a wide variety of menu options, I decided to try the recommended dish; Khao Soi with Chicken (curry noodle soup), and it was far more delicious than I had imagined.

The prices are also reasonable, making it highly recommendable. Despite the restaurant being crowded, their staffs were super friendly. It is definitely a place I would like to visit again!!“

“Have lunch with co-workers every week here. Great food and very friendly service. Best Thai food I've found in the South Bay area!“

“The atmosphere and Sid the owner so friendly and makes you feel so welcome ...awesome food and love the Thai ice tea“

“A nice Thai restaurant that offers musical entertainment over the weekends and karaoke.

Food is always good here but service sometimes can be lacking a bit if they get very busy. We got basil chicken and green curry here and both were very good. However , they missed the mark with their dessert serving - Mango with Sticky rice. The mangoes were sour and that completely derailed the dessert.

Overall - a good little Thai restaurant that does the job !“

“amazing food and service! My husband and I used to live nearby and always came when it was Tai Silk. We now live in San Pedro but we'll be back for sure.“

“The Best Thai Food in Long Beach 🏖 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My Wife & I tried this whole in the wall and were amazed by the amazing food served here. We’ve passed by this place so many times & we couldn’t believe what wonderful flavors are available here!

We tried the Spicy noodle dish with chicken which was tasty with a forgiving spice to it.

In addition, we tried the Tom Yum soup with veggies & tofu. This soup could win awards… The flavor was BOLD and exploding in that flavor.

We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“Did not expect to be this nice because google image show a very simple restaurant. I went there yesterday with my family we were looking for Thai restaurant near by my house. I just move here for school so not familiar with area but my family want to eat our culture food. I am on a budget and this place coming with high rating. I like it a lot. Service was good. Crab fried rice for $13.99 is to die for. I usually spend closer to $20 for crab fried rice else where and they even use the real crab. Chicken wing are amazing. Red curry is also taste like home. I will definitely coming back. We sit there for closer to 2 hours and my nephew was entertain. They have games for kid and coin machine too. What a good find!“

“Authentic Thai style. Well the coffee is really authentically super sweet (exactly like in Thailand!)“

“Great food, nice service. Good happy hour.“

“Delicious, fresh, unassuming. Food is great on its own but then the spices they offer on the side? Great.

Not bodybuilding food, not protein packed, I will say that. But that's probably not why you'd come here; between, meat, veggies, rice, a well rounded meal.“

“Everything was amazing! We had the Tom Kha soup as well as the spicy fish and a few other dishes I can't quite remember the names of, but all were amazingly delicious. I highly recommend to anyone who likes Thai to try this restaurant. If you've never had Thai, try it here!“

“Amazing Khmer restaurant in Long Beach! 🇰🇭 The food is delicious, authentic, and full of traditional Cambodian flavors. Everything tasted fresh and was prepared perfectly. Great service and a welcoming atmosphere too.
Definitely one of the best Cambodian restaurants in town. If you’re looking for authentic Khmer food in Long Beach, Monorom is a must-try! Highly recommended! 👌😋“

“Good food and good service at a moderate price“

“nice and fresh and clean 👌#1 service good customer service!“

“I really like their food 😋“

“I had lunch yesterday with friends and I ordered the eggplant dish. It was absolutely DELICIOUS and came with a salad and rice. The service was excellent and the prices are quite reasonable. I'm looking forward to a return visit!!“

“Monday, June 1, 2026 - You probably don’t really know this about me 🤣😂 so let me tell you… I absolutely love Thai food 🍜🌶️❤️ I’ve eaten at many Thai restaurants over the years, and while I’ve found a few favorites around Orange County, Long Beach Thai Restaurant was truly an unexpected treasure find ✨

Tucked away in a little strip mall on E Anaheim Blvd., this cozy and super clean spot completely surprised us 😊 We ordered the Rad Nah and asked for the flat rice noodles to be extra charred, just the way I love them 😄🔥 Along with that, we had shrimp Tom Kha Koong, spicy watercress chicken with chili oil, fried spring rolls, and Thai iced coffee 🥢☕🌶️ Everything was delicious, comforting, flavorful, and one of those meals where you keep saying, “just one more bite” 🤣😩😂

What made the experience even better was Kunlaya, aka Ein, the owner/server 🌹 She was warm, gracious, friendly, and so fun to chat with — never missing a beat 😊 You all know how I am… food somehow always tastes even better when the people serving it are kind-hearted, welcoming, and top notch ❤️

Of course, this is just based on my own experience and personal taste… and I’ll admit, I’m pretty particular when it comes to food 🤣😂 So when I say I enjoyed it, that really means something coming from me 😊🍜✨

Definitely one of those hidden gems I’d happily drive back for again“

“I recently visited this small family-owned restaurant while craving Thai food. As soon as I walked in, the owner greeted me warmly and provided menus. Shortly after, the owner's son pointed out the daily lunch specials, which were conveniently listed at the back of the menu, featuring smaller portions at a lower price.

Our meals arrived in under ten minutes and were delicious. The only downside was the salad; it had a few wilted leaves mixed in with the fresher ones. Overall, it was a great spot for a quick and satisfying lunch.“

“Tried:
Crispy Pork Chef Special

“Highly recommended by another fellow Elite Yelper so we decided to check it out. We had a good experience, both food and service were very good.

We started with Chicken satay and the meat was very tender and tasty.

Pineapple fried rice was a very generous portion (not served on a pineapple) and very good. You can taste the fire power on the fried rice that you can’t make at home.

Green curry with beef is tasty, but probably better to pair with shrimp or chicken or tofu.

The seafood hotpot was slightly more sour than what I’d like (this is normal and expected as my stomach can’t tolerate acid very well, and mentioned ahead of time), they gladly took it in and mild it down for us. It came out a bit later and it was delicious.

Service was excellent, it was pretty busy with all the tables taken, everyone was courteous, caring, and helpful.“

“We ordered the tom yum, pad see ew, real Thai fried rice, and papaya salad, and every dish tasted so authentic it took me straight back to the streets of Bangkok. The flavors were spot on. Even the free Thai iced tea for dine-in customers was amazing. Definitely a place I would come back to.“

“Great food cooked with love, like you're at Grandma's house, great prices and super friendly service ❤️ I had the drunken noodle which was reality flavorful, nice and spicy and they give you a great chili oil that gave a nice smoky finish, my girlfriend got the orange chicken lunch special with vegetable soup and it was delicious, portions are generous, food came out fast, and no wait to be seated 👍 lovely restaurant with cozy wood panelled walls and somehow this is a rarity but the chairs are actually comfortable. The mango sticky rice was a great, fresh dessert that didn't feel too unhealthy or sugary“

“Wonderful spot. They have happy hour from 5-7 everyday so we order the crispy dumplings and edamame to start and shared a Khoa Soi and papaya salad.

Everything was good but the papaya salad was a standout! It was so refreshing and packed with citrus flavor. We chose mild heat which was the perfect spice for us. We will be back to work our way through the soups but will keep the salad in rotation.

They also offer a nice clean patio space and comfortable bar seating which is where we chose to have a view out the windows. Came on a Monday evening and there was no wait. Service was great and attentive.“

“Very delicious array of food. The staff were very friendly and courteous. Food were cooked as you order them. We enjoyed the food. It is a mom and pop restaurant that serves great food.“

“The food was very good! I will be visiting again“

“I wanted a to-go (takeout) Thai food option. I decided to get the chicken pad thai; it was good! A tip I would recommend is that you should definitely squeeze a slice of lime on the pad thai, add the crushed peanuts, and add at least one soy sauce packet BEFORE mixing it well.“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“Love this place,my family and friends have been going there for years,was so bummed when it burned down but just as good after it came back,always my first choice when I get the chance to be in town, and always great�“

“Was working nearby looking for dinner to go. Asked if they can accommodate for gluten free, certain menu items yes(confirmed with an older woman, she was super sweet).Tom Yum Soup, Pad Thai, Pad Woon Sen, and one of the salads. AMAZING! Best Thai I've had in a decade, especially for my allergy. I will be back and will continue to order from here“

“Have been picking up takeout from this neighborhood staple for 26 years and I know people who have been eating here since 1990. D Thai Chinese is apparently a one-woman operation; the owner takes orders, cooks, serves etc. all by herself, and she is so sweet and friendly.
I can only respect how D Thai's prices remain lower than other Thai/Chinese places in the area, although the prices have been raised in the last year or so (two dollars up per lunch and dinner special). The quality of the food however has remained reliably good, fresh cooked to order, and flavorful. I don't know enough about Chinese or Thai cooking to comment on how authentic it is, but it's pretty good in my opinion and that's what matters most to me.
I've tried most of the menu over the years and the standouts to me are the fried rice, thai basil chicken, mongolian beef, beef salads, and pad see ew. The majority of the menu is four stars, but those are the five star items in my experience.
Be advised, cash only and takeout only! For what it is -- a takeout Asian hole-in-the-wall restaurant -- D Thai is a respectable local treat that I will allow myself pretty regularly within my budget. Since the owner lady is so likeable and impressive, and the food is plentiful and decent quality for your dollar, I have to rate this place five stars overall.
Thank you, nice owner lady, for your years of providing your good food and service to Westminster's hungry and grateful people!“

“Great service ! Customer service is great, there is a young lady here serving. Very attentive & nice. Food is so delicious !!!!!!! & to add a cherry on the top, mango sticky rice is perfect ! 👌 Will definitely coming back from now.“

“The food was delicious! My friend recommended it and we decided to eat there for lunch. Our refreshments were served in a cute mason jar. We shared chicken egg rolls for an appetizer. My friend ordered tom yum soup with shrimp and I got Thai Boat Noodle. I am definitely going to eat there again and bring my family.“

“If you're in the mood for Thai, this is the place to go. Great food, great service and neat and clean restaurant. Everything was done perfectly and very quickly. The staff was super attentive and professional. All-around just a great dining experience.“

“Me and my husband came in to get some Thai food and it was soooo good! We ordered a sea food soup that came with mushrooms, calamari, fish, shrimp, and muscles. The pineapple fried rice came with shrimp, chicken, cashews, onion, and pineapple. and safe to say we will definitely be going back! The waiter was super kind and sadly is was very empty more people should give this restaurant a try! If you are in the area please stop by and try their food it was delicious!“
