    Combination fried rice

    Very nice location, ton of traditional options but don't feel overwhelmed because Nicholas and the staff are so helpful with any questions you may have. I enjoyed my meal, the ambiance and the service very much.

    Absolutely delicious! The basil pork is packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and incredibly aromatic. The crispy fried egg makes it even better. One of the best Thai meals I've had -- will definitely come back!

    Coconut soup, orange chicken big portions.

    Please don't think twice about coming here definitely the best Thai restaurant in Long Beach our absolute favorite. Food is freshly made amazing customer service. They have the best coconut soup.

    Tom Kha

    Wow! Came here on a whim while in town for a friend's art show, and I am so glad!! Best Tom Kha I've had in a long time. Our waitress was so kind and patient. She had to deal with a gentleman who was clearly in some sort of religious psychosis and he kept coming in to harass her and her male coworker, and felt so bad he was being so loud and weird while I was eating. But I didn't mind much, she stayed very classy and level headed and honestly I just hope that guy gets some help. The value for the food is amazing! I forget exactly how much it was but we ordered the bigger Tom Kha and it fed two people easily with some delicious leftovers to take home. The bill was only around 20 dollars iirc. 10/10 food, maybe not the best or safest location, but I like a good hole in the wall.

    The service was one of the happiest customer service I've had and very friendly with all smiles... it was literally HAPPY THAI The food was great, my boyfriend never had pad Thai and he loved the friend rice I loved the green curry sooooo much The ambiance could use some plants and more Decor and color

    Thai tea

    Their beef soup is so amazing, my daughter loves it, and the owner is really sweet and really cares about the customers. And I can't forget to add the Thai tea is so perfect and creamy! :)

    3 shrimps in the already small portion of pad thati.

    Entrance door was very dirty which is never a good sign. Seriously it represents your whole business,make sure is sparkling clean and new. Only one other pair of customers in whole place. Got shrimp pad thai take away for~18$. 3 medium pieces of shrimp on the whole thing. Flavor is eh, I have had way better Thai at way better prices though not at Long Beach. Enter at your own peril.

    Coconut chicken soup just delicious
    Afifiana A.

    The food was fantastic .. Also, they are very friendly .. the coconut soup was delicious so it was the papaya salad We are going back there for sure

    Fried rice, white rice
    Juan E.

    So my wife recommended this restaurant for dinner since she said she has been coming to for over 20 years. I'm not a fan of Thai food but took her word for it and was glad I did. The restaurant is a nice hole in the wall with a nice atmosphere. For drinks my wife got the Thai iced tea and I got the raspberry iced tea which was super fresh and had raspberries inside. The Thai iced tea was just the right amount of sweet compared to other Thai iced teas I've tasted. We got the coconut soup along with the beef salad and fried rice. It was A bit pricey but well worth it

    Pad thai, thai tea, & panang curry

    This place was such a pleasant surprise. From the outside, it looks pretty unassuming, but once you…read morestep inside, it's actually incredibly cute and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. One of the highlights is their Thai tea, which is served with a popsicle and seems to be one of their most popular items for good reason. It's fun, unique, and absolutely delicious. I also tried the salmon curry, which was something new for me, and I ended up loving it. The flavors were rich, balanced, and unlike anything I've ordered before. Another unexpected favorite was the wings. I'm usually not a big wings person, but these were surprisingly good--crispy, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. Overall, the food, drinks, and atmosphere exceeded my expectations. It's a spot I would absolutely come back to and one that I would definitely recommend to others.

Kin was one of the only restaurants open until 10 PM. We were seated right away, and somehow the five of us sat in a private room. It was kind of late for me to eat anything really heavy so I just have my usual salad and it was the beef tenderloin salad. They serve it up with a lot of beef and less veggies. The beef itself was a little chewy and in large pieces. I prefer the meat to be cut a little smaller and would like more lettuce and cucumber. I got a little taste of the spicy fried rice, which was really good. Some of us ordered Thai tea and didn't expect what we received, which was the tea with a Thai tea popsicle. What a treat! The Thai tea itself was pretty standard, but that popsicle was like the icing on a cake. The places, modern and clean. Staff is helpful and nice. Parking is their own lot but can be difficult to get a spot on a busy day or night.

There's a few nearby which fiends have referred and raved about, but this one left a lasting impression. I love me some boat noodles and they do not disappoint. The nice thick broth with loads of meats all mixed in together. Then you have the Chinese broccoli for the perfect veggie paring. Wow, it so good. Some places cannot get their broth right which does make a major difference. Sometimes it ends up being too watery and defected the purpose. Here, the broth is perfect. Also any of their curries is excellent. This time we went with the massaman curries. Nice thick broth with peanuts, potatoes, onion and carrots in a coconut sauce. Another flavorful dish. And of course we always get the papaya salad Thai style with shrimp and peanut. There also the Laos style with fermented fish sauce and salty crab. It's quite nice too but it could be too strong of a taste for some people. The food has always been excellent. Service was always excellent with friendly staff. They're always so welcoming and attentive to their customers. A must for me whenever I'm down in Long Beach. Parking can be tricky as it's all street parking.

When I notified the server (who didn't originally take our order), she came back with Green Curry w/ chicken, but it had no spice whatsoever. We had to flag down the waitress for a few times, and at some point, we ended up just going to the front counter because we got tired of waiting for someone to come by for us to get to-go containers. Some dishes were served correctly. The Stuffed Chicken Wings tasted like lumpia, especially with the sweet chili sauce it's served with. The Drunken Noodle w/ beef tasted good, but I found the beef to noodle ratio lacking. Overall, food was decent, but service was disappointing.

    Me and my crew just got done with a long day but we still needed dinner. They were pretty tired so…read moreI decided I'd just get some Thai/Chinese take out and bring it back to the hotel. We have full kitchens in all the rooms where we're staying along with plates and all the set ups. The rooms even have dishwashers! So, I found this S T Noodle Bar near by and decided to give it a try. I kinda know what there guys like to eat, so I just ordered a bunch of food. The only request from anybody was for Pad Thai, the most common dish at all Thai restaurants. I GPS my way over and order the food. I was Khao Soy on the menu and I don't see that at too many Thai places that I've been to, so I got an order of that with chicken. Of course, an order of Pad Thai, 2 orders since I have 5 hungry people to feed. Also, I ordered the Thai coconut soup, I think it's called Tom Kha with chicken. One more noodles dish was the Drunken Noodles, it's kinda like Chinese Chow Fun, but has a more spicy flavor and basil in it. The food was all pack and bagged for me to take back to the hotel. We used my room since I have a bigger room. We had plates and set ups for all five of us and we re-plated the food on the serving plates that came with the room. All the food was really tasty and everybody was happy not to have to leave the hotel. I heard compliments on the Pad Thai and the Coconut soup. It was a good idea just to do take out and eat at the hotel here.

We were greeted and helped right away and got a place in the restaurant that fit us well. We ordered the veggie spring roll, tofu soup, beef pad thai and tom yum. The veggie spring roll tasted fresh and the sauce added a nice layer of flavor. Off the bat, the portion sizes for the tom yum and pad thai were VERY generous (from my experiences with Thai restaurants). The pad thai stood out and was absolutely delicious! The service did great with helping us out and attending to our requests. The ambiance was relaxed, and where we sat in the back was cool because there was upbeat music playing loud enough to muffle the surrounding sounds but still soft enough to have conversation at our table without needing to raise our voice. Overall, I'm glad I gave S T Noodle Bar a try! I'd recommend it!
