The 32 Best Late Night Restaurants In Los Angeles - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"When you don't want the night to end quite yet, but you're done drinking, the answer is always Sanamluang. Sure, there are other late-night Thai spots in East Hollywood, but the food here doesn't sacrifice quality for convenience. Sit in the strip mall parking lot under the glow of neon lights, and order tender duck curry, lard nah, and a huge portion of tom yum in the wee hours of the morning. We also are firm believers that the Sanamluang noodle soup cures your hangovers before they have a chance to hit." - brant cox, arden shore, nikko duren, sylvio martins, garrett snyder

Sanamluang Café Review - East Hollywood - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"When you don’t want the night to end quite yet, but you’re done drinking, the answer is always Sanamluang. Sure, there are other Thai spots in East Hollywood that stay open even later (Sanamluang is currently operating till 1am), but the food here doesn’t sacrifice quality for convenience. Sit in the strip mall parking lot under the glow of neon lights, and order tender duck curry, lard nah, and a huge portions of tom yum in the wee hours of the morning. The meat in every dish, especially the noodles, is always juicy, the vegetables vibrant, and the service fast. We also are firm believers that the Sanamluang noodle soup cures your hangovers before they have a chance to hit." - Arden Shore

My team came to Sanamluang for a work lunch, and we were very satisfied! Our food came out quickly and was delicious. I would recommend the Koo Chai. My friend said that her pad kra paw was the best she has eaten in a restaurant, and the pad see ew was also tasty without being overly greasy or heavy.

Papaya salad had too much lime, so we couldn't finish it while we were there. Other than that, everything was delicious. We got green curry as our main and the sanamluang noodles to try. Green curry is my favorite but, wow, the noodles has me changing my mind. I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it. It also was enough to serve two. Service was quick and workers were always coming by to check if we had our food and if we needed water.

Went here to celebrate someone’s birthday and it was pretty nice. The restaurant is good for family or large group dinner. The food was pretty delicious too and the service is pretty good

I’ve been coming to this restaurant (a different location then this one) for years and years and they’re are always good. Service was good even though it was busy during lunch. My family and I always get our own entree and share a soup or two so we always get lots of good food! Thim our server was very helpful and sweet!

Stopped for lunch on our way from Palm Springs to LA. Food and service was great, and fast. Bustling atmosphere, obviously a popular place for lunch. Be sure to follow their parking instructions so you don’t get towed. Reasonable pricing. Easy on and off from the I10.

We visited on a Saturday evening and experienced a 30-minute wait, which wasn’t too bad considering how many people were waiting in the lobby. The menu is pretty extensive, featuring a variety of classic Thai dishes. We ordered the Boat Noodles, Pad Thai, Red Curry with rice, Tom Yum, and Combination Fried Rice. The food was flavorful, and I appreciated the three different types of chili available at the table for customizing spice levels. The service was decent, though nothing exceptional. A heads-up about parking: avoid the adjacent lot near the dentist’s office, as there’s a security guard on-site enforcing towing rules (even during dentist's off-hours). Overall, it’s a solid spot for Thai food with a great selection of dishes.

Definitely a modernized facility. Looks spacious and parking area was large but very packed. The restaurant was extremely busy. We had a party of approximately 20 people. We called a few days ahead and were told they will try their best to accommodate. When we arrived, it was extremely crowded. Even with 20 people they seated us within an hour. Kudos to that! However, the service after that was rather spotty. We ordered several dishes for both tables that split us in. Many of the dishes either didn't come out or came out an hour after we finished the few that did come out earlier. We also had to flag down a few service professionals to remind them about our drinks and dishes. Enough about the service, since we will just blame it on that staff was short. The food was extremely delicious. Portions were okay but not as large as other Thai restaurants. My fave dishes would be the fried catfish. Great spice and well balanced sweet, spicy and savory! Perfect with rice! The papaya salad was definitely fresh with a great kick and umami flavor. The salted fried fish rice was phenomenal! I loved the perfect balance of salty and savory. That fish crunch was awesome! The soups were a bit to vinegary or salty. All the other dishes were yummy too. Loved that the noodles were not over cooked and great flavors. Would definitely suggest to be prepared for a long wait. We were informed that if our party was smaller and we came at a less busy time, the service would be better and the food would come out timely.

Update 10/2025: this is our go to Thai place and loved pretty much all the dishes wr tried, except what I had today. The combo bbq plate was disappointing. While the chasao was decent, but the crispy pork was impossible to chew and the duck was represented by 2-3 very thin and very skinny pieces. We still love this place, but won’t be ordering its bbq dishes anytime soon. Update: after dinning at other local Thai places, we kept coming back to this place. The ingredients are always fresh and the staff is always friendly and attentive. Today, I tried its fried rice with pork. It was one of the better Thai fried rices anywhere. It wasn’t overly greasy or heavily flavored. This is our favorite Thai restaurant. If you like traditional Thai food, then this is the place as you won’t find “fusion” dishes. Thus it is also one of the few Thai places in this area that serves both Northern and southern Thai cuisines. So it’s a rare find. The pork leg over rice is what I had today and it’s a Northern (very similar to Chinese food in that region). It was very well cooked and tasty. The Indian Curry Noodles were very good as well with coconut curry (not sure why it’s called Indian curry). The service was friendly and fast. The prices were more than reasonable as the owner has done a great job keeping the prices to the pre-inflation level. Highly recommended.

My go-to spot for Thai food in the area! Consistently good food and very reasonable prices -- the portions are huge! Service is always friendly and the wait is never too long, even on a busy weekend night. Parking is available in the lot, to the side of the restaurant and behind it as well. The restaurant is nicely decorated and always seems to have fresh flowers that make the place a bit more fancy. My favorites are the duck curry which has so much duck flavor, pad kee mow which has so much Thai basil flavor and rhad nah which is so flavorful yet simple. Don't forget to spice things up with their pickled chilis and other spicy condiments!

Ordered picked from one of our favorite Thai places...guess the dishes we picked today weren't great because the food is usually really good. They were out of the salted fish fried rice so we got the combo fried rice, which was very plain and underwhelming! Tofu pad see ew was tasty Pad pra kow- we ordered spicy but hardly any spice at all Chinese broccoli with crispy pork belly- we also ordered spicy but no spice at all, this dish is prob better eaten fresh bc by the time we got home the pork wasn't crispy...also it was majority rice so better so just get the entree dish

This might be one of my all time favorite Thai restaurants in SoCal. You know it's authentic when every is from Thai. This place is truly a hidden gem! Fried garlic pepper chicken and rice- the flavor was amazing and the side of rice went perfectly well together. Pad see ew- one of my favorite dishes and we tried it with beef this time. I think it taste better with chicken. Garlic short ribs - I love this appetizer! It's small, shareable and absolutely delicious! Cook to perfection! Parking can be very challenging in general and especially on the weekends. They will tow your car so pay attention to where you can and cannot park. The staff is amazing too! Great service and food!!

I just have to say some of the best Thai food I have had! Service was amazing. The staff is extremely attentive and we did not have to ask for anything. We were glad we arrived a bit early, as the empty tables quickly filled up with hungry diners. Super clean and well-maintained, with a cool modern vibe. The decor is fresh and stylish without feeling overdone -- a great mix of comfort and contemporary design. It took us a while to decide what to order, thanks to the wide variety of delicious options. With our server's helpful recommendations, we finally chose the chicken satay appetizer, Pad Thai, and chicken Pad Kra Pao. The food was incredible, and all the dishes ordered by nearby tables looked absolutely delicious as well! Every dish was packed with bold, fresh flavors that hit all the right notes -- spicy, savory, a little sweet, and totally satisfying. You can really taste the quality and care in the ingredients and cooking. I can't wait to go back and try some of their curry dishes!

This is actually one of my favorite Thai restaurants, definitely worth the long drive. My new favorite dish is the Crispy Chicken Larb (similar to orange chicken but different, tangy with much more flavor). Loved all our dishes. Great customer service! Looking forward to coming back and trying to other dishes on the menu. Located in a shopping mall, plenty of parking available.

這一家非常有名的泰國餐廳,前陣子跟同事到這附近來探訪客人,他居然沒來過這一家,那選日不如撞的,我們兩個就來這常常好吃的泰國菜,這次我們叫了一個海鮮沙拉,非常的清爽,海鮮也新鮮,泰國茶一直都是太甜了,這也沒有改變過, 我們的 pai Thai 好吃, 綠咖喱也行,這家如果沒來過, 可以試試

This has been our favorite Thai restaurant. We used to visit their Pomona location during our college years. Prices have been and are still reasonable. Portions are great (refer to photos). All the food is tasty. There is a wide selection of choices from noodles to rice to soup. Parking can be difficult since it's limited due to other businesses. There are street parking. This location is definitely much larger than before. There is plenty of seating, great for large groups. The reason I gave 4 stars is because it took the server very long to take our order after we have asked numerous times. It wasn't even under staff and our server seem to undermine us as to what we were ordering. He kept checking with us and asking if that's really what we wanted ‍ Maybe that's just the way he talks? I will still return and enjoy the food.

This restaurant is always one of our favorites because of its ambience, service, food quality, and taste -- not to mention the portions. I always recommend this place, and it's our go-to spot when I have family or friends visiting, or even when I come alone for my quick lunch break.

Good & tasty thailand food and authentic style of presentation of asian style. Its always busy and crowded with hungry people eating or waiting to be seated to enjoy the food from here. A lot of servers and people who work willing to help or assist you so you have an amazing experience in this restaurant. Inside they have a lot of tables and chairs but it depent how busy on weekends you come early.

Decent Thai place if you're looking for value! Each dish goes from $12-$18 depending on the protein you pick. The dishes here are average. The pad see ew and pad Thai were solid dishes. Cant go wrong with those dishes. The crispy pork was crispy even with the sauce and vegetables on. We got mint fried rice with seafood but there was not much mint flavor at all. The seafood took over the flavors and each bite tasted seafoody. Friendly staff and lots of seating. Right off the 10 freeway and has lots of parking. Would come back if I want a cheap meal.

Sanamluang is a local institution in the Pomona/Claremont area. I remember the old Pomona location fondly- a bit dicey but with the prices and portions it was our go-to Thai spot for groups after church activities. The new location is clean and a bit fancier albeit with higher prices. The staples here have always been- pad see ew, duck on rice (great if you like dark meat), and of course the mango sticky rice. This visit we tried and liked the shrimp fried rice so I would recommend that as well. Some of the noodle dishes can run a bit sweet here- but the generous portions are hard to match. Glad to report that Sanamluang is still putting out tasty Thai food after all these years.

Upon arrival, there was a security guard who helped open our doors and kindly tell us to park in the right parking lot. Make sure to not park in the lot across the restaurant in the same plaza! The food and service were quick and efficient. I had a large party, so they kindly let us split the bill in half (for our table). The food was extremely tasty and affordable. There is a reason why so many people were eating at the same time as us. We got the mild spicy fried rice which was tolerable for someone who does not like spice, just make sure there is water available.

Been before a few times already but brought a friend to try this place. She gave the food 10/10 which is great, Sanamluang did me proud! We ordered Pad Thai with mild spice (didn't really taste any spice but probably for the better), chicken satay, beef jerky, and chicken fried rice. The portions were generous and flavors were all great! They were very busy and it's understandable for a Friday night but service was good and not too hard to flag someone when you need something. Recommendation for whenever anyone orders a seafood dish, make a half lime/lemon and fish sauce w chili for a dip, just ask them for the limes at the restaurant and diy, it's great on fried rice and dipping our shrimp from the Pad Thai in it. Only drawback was the parking, don't know what happened but half of the lot, the other property owners won't allow Sanamluang parking, but if those business is closed for the night, why not?!‍‍ Oh, and with our 4 dishes and split between 3 people with tip, it was under $25 per person! Thank you for not super inflating prices on us

We ordered a bunch of different things, but the standouts for me were the fried chicken wings and the Tom Yum soup. The wings were super crispy, well seasoned, and just the right bite-size. Really addictive. The Tom Yum soup was also great! not like some places that just dump in heavy premade paste. Theirs was lighter with more layers of flavor, which I really appreciated. All the side sauces were amazing too. You can tell they make them in-house and put real thought into them. We also tried a few different noodle dishes. They were decent, but nothing too different from what you'd get elsewhere. Personally, I liked the stir-fried ones more than the boiled ones. The place is huge and really popular with locals. Service was quick, even though it was super busy. Just be prepared, it gets really loud in there.

There aren't too many great Thai options in this area imo but when one of my friends brought Sanamlaung to a party I knew this was my new go to spot and always worth the little drive from chino hills. I usually order a variety of different items based on my mood. Today I came in for the Pad See Ew with tofu and their Spicy Mint Leave Fried Rice for lunch since I couldn't decide. The rice is always a must for me though. I was seated promptly on a Monday @ 1PM and my order taken promptly after I made up my mind. Each item is $13.5 before tax and tip and the portions were good enough for me to bring home leftovers for dinner. I'll be back soon when I crave Thai again.

Very crowded on a Sunday night. However, my party of three was seated right away. Nice interior and parking is available. It tends to feel cold inside, bring a sweater. We ordered: Pad see ew with beef, Garlic Pork Spare Ribs and Pad Kra Pao with chicken medium spicy. Everything was served hot and tasted good. Ribs were hard to eat because it was cut so small. Service was friendly and attentive. Great spot to visit.

Power tip: had a nice lunch with my girl a couple weeks ago. It was busy, but we were able to sit down without a wait. Atmosphere was nice. Service was friendly. Had a Tom Yun Goong soup that was tasty but not too spicy. I was really enjoying the pad kee mow until I started having a reaction and was only able to eat half of it. I think I was just too hungry, ate too fast, and experienced dumping syndrome, as I was able to enjoy the second half of this noodle a week later and did not have a problem. Prices are reasonable, if not cheap considering current standards. Will likely be back to enjoy more of this diverse menu.

I'm really glad I discovered this place, it's one of the best Thai restaurants I've had in a while. I really enjoyed every dish I ordered, with only minor nitpicks. 49. Pad Kee Mao with Shrimp - excellent. One of the best pad kee maos I've had in LA. The noodles are excellently flavored and it tastes like it was cooked with a lot of oil at high heat. My only minor complaint is that the shrimp was a bit over cooked but not a big deal, it was still good. 9. Garlic Pork Spare Ribs - overall it was fine, the ribs were very tender and crispy. It was a bit too salty and the flavor was a bit one-dimensional though. Probably will not get this again. 94. Sautéed Eggplant - I really liked the eggplant, excellently cooked and very flavorful, I just wish there were more eggplant. Felt like there were more peppers and onions than eggplant in the dish. Service and environment were both excellent. It was a very modern and bright atmosphere. But neither factor into my rating, my rating is just for the food.

Food is so good. Was craving Thai and this is the spot to go! Authentic Thai restaurant. ***FYI: parking is limited in the designated lot. Please don't park in the other side near the dentist area, your car will get towed**** We got Pad Thai, Pad Kee Mow, and Red Curry. I got medium spicy for the PAD KEE MOW, I loved it!!! Flavor is so balanced with the heat of the spice. I think next time I'll get a level spicier than medium. Pad Thai was also very good! The fresh bean spouts and the lime wedge really gives it flavor. The Red Curry was also good but not as spicy as I would have liked. The ambiance was very well lit during dinner time. The place feels very clean and modern. Service was good too. They would check up to see if you're doing ok and refill water without asking. I would come here again!

Very good food here. I'd rate the food overall a solid 4 to 4.5 stars. The service on a Sunday afternoon was definitely lacking. After dealing with a few surly servers, I actually found myself snapping at a few of them. The service dropped the experience down about 1.5 Stars. My guess is a lot of these servers are local college students, so they don't really care. The one middle aged lady was the only exception. Her service was great. As for as the individual dishes, the Tom Yom Kum was an amazing dish. Just the right amount of sour, and the shrimp were perfect. The papaya salad with the dried shrimp was another standout. Will definitely order this dish again. The chicken satay was slightly better than average. The eggplant dish was very good. I'll likely order this one again. Finally, we finished with the mango sticky rice dessert dish. It too was a standout. They were actually peeling the mango and preparing it in the front area. Very appealing. I'll come back again soon, but would prefer to try it again on a weekday night for hopefully better service.

This is one of our favorite Thai places. I've been coming here over the last 20 years and it's always been good. When we went we were a party of 9 with 4 kids. We were seated right away and served right away. We got our usual which is the pad see ew, pad Thai, and I got their chicken sate or skewers. Everything came out timely and hot. Service was good and they checked on us occasionally. I think the only thing that has changed is the parking situation outside. They have signs on the bathroom saying that if you park in the wrong area you could get towed since they share the lot with other businesses. Just something to be mindful of if you're parking away from the restaurant. Great spot and we'll continue to come back for the great time and awesome food.

If you're lucky enough to be in the area and have a craving for Thai food you definitely need to swing by and get yourself some good grub. This time around I was fortunate to be in the area and got some pad see u/chicken to go. I should've placed my order 45 minutes before arriving because they were packed and I was thinking 20 minutes would be enough time for me to get my order but I was wrong. The restaurant was booming with customers and there were plenty of to go orders sitting for pickup. Inside was a large area to eat with sections. I'm not sure if they have private rooms but I'll look next time I'm there. They have ample parking and street parking too. Come out and enjoy some Thai Cuisine.

I went on a Wednesday around 5pm and we were seated pretty much right away! I got the rad nah with tofu. It's a big portion (enough for 2 servings) and reasonably priced! I got it with soft tofu, but fried is available. They don't skimp on the tofu or greens. Overall, a good dish but flavor-wise, seems to be less traditional than other rad nahs I'm used to and not the most flavorful I also tried one of their fried taro apps. It was savory and crispy. Better with the peanut sauce that comes with

Had a 10/10 experience at Sanamluang as a first-timer! Was sat very quickly and ordered a dish I saw posted here on Yelp, the Larb salad but with crispy chicken. It arrived quickly and steaming hot, a plus for me. It was flavorful and paired well with my side of white rice (not pictured, but perfectly fluffy!) They also offer a variety of sauces and condiments on the table for you to add. My waiter checked in on me frequently, I appreciated his attentiveness. I will definitely be back to get this exact dish and hopefully try more!

I've been coming to Sanamluang Thai Cuisine in Claremont for years now, ever since a family member recommended it to me. Even though I'm from LA, I always make it a point to stop by when I find myself in the area. The food here is undeniably authentic and delicious. I can't get enough of their chicken wings--they're small, light and perfectly crispy and flavorful. The beef jerky and garlic spare ribs are also fantastic. Good appetizers to share for a larger party doing family style. My personal go-to order is the prasalid fried rice which is a simple fried rice topped with thinly sliced, golden fried, and crunchy fish fillet. If you like it spicy like me, do not forget to pour some Thai chili fish sauce on top!! Literal game changer. Lastly, if you visit on the weekend, definitely recommend getting the Indian fried rice with chicken if it's not yet sold out! It's not a common dish sold at many Thai restaurants, and if you're wanting something hearty, savory, and different, it's one worth a try. The ambiance here is elegant yet modern, often showcasing beautiful floral arrangements at its entrance. I love the little bits of traditional Thai culture sprinkled throughout the space, such as the beautiful customary dress and headgear at the front as well as the expansive wallpapers displaying famous landscapes in Thailand. Overall, it's a large, clean, and comfortable space that feels special without being overly formal. It's the perfect place for regular date nights, casual meet ups with friends, and even for larger gatherings of family and friends. During my last visit around 5 pm, I ordered for pick up over the phone and had no trouble finding a parking space, even though it was a bit busy. It's shares an ample parking lot with other businesses, so be aware of designated spaces. Please note phone orders over $100 require payment over the phone which I feel is pretty standard, but something to keep in mind. Overall, Sanamluang is a delicious choice for great Thai food. It can get pretty busy on the weekends during peak hours, so you may expect a wait. However, I can attest it is well worth it. Perfect spot for those looking for authentic Thai flavor as well as those trying Thai cuisine for the first time. If you're in the area, I can't recommend this place enough!

If I could give this place 10 stars, I WOULD. This is my go to place when I am in the mood for some good Thai food. I will drive from Redlands, just to go here! LITERALLY. If you plan on going here, be prepared for a line! But the hostess are usually good with managing time & the line so my friend & i, we only waited for about 20 minutes, but it felt like forever because we were so hungry LOL. Great establishment to come to for large groups! we had the house fried rice, seafood soup, pad see ew & chicken. The decor is very detailed but I like how it caters to the culture.

3 1/2 Stars. It's been years since I've been to this restaurant, in fact it the last time was when they were in their other location which was much smaller and not as eye catching and appealing as this new location. The parking was a pain since it was a Saturday and around the lunch hour. There were many people on the wait list, but the actual wait was less than I was advised. The interior of the restaurant is modern, large, and can be noisy since some of the tables are close to each other. I ordered the papaya salad, spicy catfish, duck curry, and pad Thai. The food arrived in a reasonable amount of time, but I noticed that the staff seemed really overwhelmed with the number of patrons, and the service was average. As for the food, I was truly disappointed with the quality and lack of flavor that I remember this kitchen used to serve. I'm not sure if they were shorthanded in the kitchen or if it was just an off day. Overall, I probably wouldn't return here again since I prefer a smaller venue with an emphasis on authentic taste.

This is one of the better Thai restaurants I've been to that isn't in Thai Town. My friend brought me here and I was skeptical on this place because I wouldn't expect Claremont to have good thai food. I went on a Wednesday night and parking wasn't difficult. There was a lot of spots available since it was not a busy time. There was a security guard outside the restaurant which made it feel pretty safe. The restaurant itself was pretty spacious and we had no wait. We ordered the Pad Thai, Chicken Satay and Roasted Duck Curry. I was surprised at how flavorful the food were and it was one of the better thai foods I had. The portions are generous as well. I was a little confused at why the Chicken Satay came with toast but chicken was really juicy.

Here's an updated review of Sanamluang. This place has it all. The flavors and many different dishes that they offer are unmatched. When I think of really good authentic Thai food, I can only recommend this Sanamluang. Their prices are very affordable, given the rise of food prices. Service is always on point. Servers are attentive and friendly. The restaurant is big, clean, and nicely decorated. I wish I could visit more often, but it is such a long drive from where I live.

The food is great. One of the best mango sticky rice i've had ever. We also ordered larb to go. Can't wait to try it. The price is reasonable too. Tom kha hotpot, thai boat, thai coffee with boba, larb and mango sticky rice for 66.23. Not bad

I haven't been to Sanamluang since college and their location expanded. I found that the quality of food has seemed to gone down over time, but the portion sizing has definitely increased. The food itself is average, I'd rather make the drive to Thai town next time. The staff are really busy and are not as attentive or friendly due to how packed the restaurant was during a dinner rush. The parking lot gets full really quickly during the rush and there will be a security guard in the lot telling you where not to park.

This is probably one of my favorite Thai restaurants of SoCal....I keep coming back for their deep fried Pampano with a side of mild chili sauce and their Salted fish Fried Rice is to die for! Besides service is fast and efficient!!!

I've been coming to Sanamluang since I was a kid the menu has never changed nor has the recipe. The recipe has always been the same. The food has always been the same ever since it moved from Pomona. Nothing has ever changed the portions the full size. Nothing always gonna be a great restaurant .The service always impeccable. I feel like whenever I go there. I feel like I'm at home eating good home-cooked .Thai food because I am Thai. I know what I'm eating authentic good Thai food. Always recommended to people to go there i because it's the best Thai food in the inland Empire

I ordered the Tom ka Kai soup with the chicken on the side (I have always felt that the cooked chicken should be added tableside because they use pre cooked chicken breast. It dries out very easily, becoming chewy and stringy. they serve it to you in a flaming pot. ) and while the broth is very was delicious, the elements added to the broth were not. They chopped up and added a unripe tomato and white mushrooms in the kitchen. The bowl of cooked shredded chicken breast that came with the soup was VERYovercooked. Between the green tomato and the overcooked chicken this was not a pleasant experience. It took away from the flavor of the broth. For $16 a bowl you would think they could do better. I actually took the soup home, reheated it adding a chopped cooked chicken thigh the reheating softened the tomato and I was able to really enjoy my soup. I also ordered the peanut chicken salad and this unbelievably bad. I do not know why they have this on their menu. The salad was really unpleasant . It was a pile of iceberg lettuce that included the core of the head of lettuce. a chopped up unripe, green tomato., one hard boiled over cooked egg that had a very strange taste to it, almost as if it had been sitting peeled, in a bowl of water for days. And a small pile of overcooked dried chicken breast on top of it. The dressing was the peanut sauce that they use for their chicken sauté. It was very greasy with oil floating on the top. I assume that they would have made a peanut vinaigrette at the very least! the salad had some fresh fried wonton on the top and that was the best part lol . Overall it was Not edible and not pleasant to look at. I did not enjoy it. I only ate a few bites before I gave up on it altogether, this meal cost me $36 and I have to ask myself. I have eaten at this restaurant on and off for over 10 years. The first few years I ate there it was heavenly, never had a bad dish. but I have seen a significant decline over the last few years, especially since 2022 to now. I have had a few meals there that I thought could have been better. Today's experience was the worst. I would stick with the noodle dishes they do these really well. I really hope that this restaurant revamps its menu and gets back to what it does well but as it stands right now, I would not go back. I remember years ago when the restaurant would be so busy that there would be a line out the door night and day. But they have heavy competition from other restaurants in the community now and they need to figure out what to do to make themselves better. There is a new hotel being built, literally across the street from them. There are three new restaurants about to open their doors within 1 block of them, I hope that they figure it out and reinvent themselves. Their menu is too large. There are items on the menu that are seriously outdated or just simply bad. I would love to have an excellent Thai restaurant with consistent quality across the board in my neighborhood that can compete and enjoy the new business coming their way from the new hotel.
