Wonderful Thai restaurant in the heart of Beverly Hills. Work nearby and dropped in for lunch. Very good lunch menu, well priced, and generous portions. The service is fantastic. Very welcoming and helpful in suggesting something new to try. Decor inside is very nice and inviting, with plenty of space and available outdoor seating. I ordered the pork belly and fried egg rolls. Both were so good. I think this will be my go to Asian food lunch spot for work. Definitely give them a try if you're in the area and looking for some Thai food.
We grabbed a weekend dinner reservation during our trip here. We were greeted and brought to our seat right away. The waiter for our table was friendly and helpful with his tips for drinks much appreciated. After we put in our order, it was quite a wait for the food to come out though when they did, they all came out relatively close together. We ordered the pad thai, pad see ew, and curry dishes. The curry was my favorite and everything was overall was flavorful - if anything a touch salty/sweet depending on the dish. My favorite of the three was the curry. Cute restaurant in Beverly Hills. The table we were seated at had a slightly uncomfortable couch but all in all, recommended if you like thai food.
First time trying Thai food in Beverly Hills. Loved it. Great vibes and delicious food. Love the cocktails. Fantastic service. The fried pork was amazing.
I love the quality of food but portion is small. I like the chicken wing the most - it's a double battered fried chicken with fish sauce. So crispy and delicious The tom yum fried rice was super special too. It was using purple fried rice and it adds a special creamy texture to the rice Sea bass green curry was so delicious too. Sea bass was cooked perfectly and curry was super flavorful Papaya salad and pad see ew were pretty standard. We got it because portion was small and we weren't full. Dessert was good as always.
Was in the area and wanted a quick takeout dinner so made a pickup order through Seamless from La Ong. Got the Pad See Ew noodles dish with Shrimp. It was slightly on the salty side but very flavorful. Easy pickup, food was ready when promised and friendly staff.
This place opened a few years ago next to my office and my coworkers & I frequently order take out from here. Its moniker is derived after the chef's grandma and the dishes are based on her recipes. Everything is prepared with ingredients that are imported from Thailand or locally sourced. In the past I've had the Mee Krob, Brussels Sprouts, & Papaya Salad, which were all tasty. A recent order we shared consisted of Tom Yum Rice and Stir Fried Broccoli. With an infusion of Thai basil, Kaffir leaves, chili, & lime, the Tom Yum Rice was an interesting dish. It also contained scallops, shrimp, & crab, which I enjoyed. The stir-fried broccoli was also good. La Ong will continue to be a staple on our lunch order list.
Amazing and delicious Pad Thai with Fried Tofu!! Great vibes as well! I definitely recommend this spot for excellent high end Thai food!
We dined as a group of 5 and ordered many signature dishes on the menu to explore the diversity. Overall, the entrees such as crab fried rice are solid with rich flavors. But there are a few items, on that particular day, were just below the acceptable level. For examples, chicharron has a distinctive off-flavor associated with pork when the skins are not cleaned properly. We couldn't even finish after one bite. The sea bass in tom yum soup was clearly not fresh, emitting a noticeable off-flavor. Chicken wings are flavorful but the skins are fried too hard to bite easily. The server was kind enough to take the chicharron off the menu but it also feels like she didn't care to explain at all.
After my third time dinning here, how could this tasty Thai spot not get 5 stars! La Ong has standout dishes, deep curry notes, and excellent executed Thai menu items. Service is wonderful and prices are very reasonable for this BH establishment. Must try's on the menu are the Khai soi with beef and noodles, the geeen curry branzino, beef and jasmine rice, pad Thai and pad see ew , wings , and mango sticky rice. I'm willing to bet all their items are a hit. 5/5 stars , check them out.
i enjoyed the food here, but there were a couple hiccups during my meal... first, the food was delicious. the fresh green rolls were delicious, and i especially enjoyed the peanut sauce which had a nice kick to it. i ordered the garlic noodles with tofu, and the noodles were cooked well with a nice bite, the garlic flavor wasn't overwhelming, overall a balanced dish. and we finished with the mango sticky rice with coconut milk, which was pretty standard. however, the staff asked twice about allergies and i mentioned i am vegetarian. despite this, i was served garlic noodles with chicken :/ they replaced the dish without any issue, but i would be worried if someone really did have an allergy that this could be overlooked.
This is our go to spot for Thai food in Beverly Hills! Every time we arrive the host and hostess are always friendly and quick to seat us wherever we like. There's both seating in the restaurant or on the patio. You will be close to other people if you do sit on the patio, so if you are planning to have a private conversation it won't be TOO private. The place is very clean and has a nice little set up to it. There's even a little bar seating area you can sit at and order a thai ice tea while waiting for your order. They are pretty quick to take your order and the food comes out in a decent amount of time. I usually order the Sea Bass Southern Thai Curry Plate if I'm not that hungry or the Beef with Ginger Rice Plate with an iced black lychee tea or Thai ice tea depending on my mood. I can't even explain how good everything here is. You honestly can't go wrong with whatever you order and you will be satisfied. Trust ya boy! Anyway, it can get a little packed around lunch time but you shouldn't have any issues getting a seat. If you're in the area and in the mood for Thai, hit this place up. Oh, they separate checks too! I feel like that's something I should start mentioning in my reviews that would be helpful. OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros

La Ong is now one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the Los Angeles area! The ambiance and overall feel of the restaurant are intimate, modern, and sleek. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive from the moment I arrived. When I checked in, the host greeted me warmly and had my table ready immediately, even though I had made my online reservation less than 10 minutes earlier. The waitstaff also regularly checked in on me throughout my meal to make sure I had everything I needed. I started with the Thai Limeade, which had a nice kick from the rum and paired perfectly with its zesty, tangy flavor. I also ordered the Brussels sprouts, which I was initially hesitant about because the dish is topped with an over-easy egg. My hesitation was completely misplaced because they were amazing! If you love garlic, you'll definitely love these sprouts. For my main course, I ordered the Crispy Pork Noodles, and flavor-wise, they were incredible. The crispy pork is paired with vermicelli noodles, watercress, egg, and chili garlic, creating a unique and delicious combination that you really have to try for yourself. Another thing worth mentioning is the portion sizes -- they are HUGE! And I'm definitely someone who likes to eat, yet I still brought home a ton of leftovers while leaving the restaurant completely stuffed. Sure, the prices are higher than what I'm used to paying for Thai food, but you have to take into consideration the location -- Beverly Hills on Santa Monica Boulevard -- as well as the fact that the quality of the food is top-notch. In my opinion, the experience and portions make it well worth it. I can't wait to go back because there were so many other dishes on the menu that I wanted to try. If you're a fan of Thai food, I highly recommend checking out La Ong for yourself! read more

The spring rolls and fried chicken here is phenomenal!!!! I cannot recommend it enough and for my entree I got the khao soi which was also very delicious. My one complaint is that parking can get difficult in the area, though there are lots nearby. read more
I would say this restaurant is a fancy version of Thai food because the plating is very beautiful I love the organic green spring rolls and the sauce is very delicious It is a very good choice to have it in summer The service is good there and servers are nice and hospitable Parking is easy on the street or parking structures cross streets read more

Came here with reservations and was seated with little to no wait. The customer service here was great, the workers were nice and attentive. The food on the other hand was honestly nothing special. The papaya salad was lacking in zest and spice, it just tasted like peanuts and it was bland. The holy basil noodles was nothing we expected, the noodles were fried to the point where we thought they were chips. If you're looking for a noodle dish this is not it. The tom kha was good but the portion was tiny for its cost. I've definitely had better Thai food at a cheaper place, however I came because I wanted to treat my friend to a more upscale thai restaurant. The major flaw of this place was the insufferable scent of grease inside. I'm not sure if the vents weren't working or what was up, but the fumes of oil and grease were so strong. Me and my friend left with our hair and clothes smelling so greasy and fried. We got back to our friend's apartment and my other friend could instantly smell the greasiness when we walked by, it was suffocating. read more
Craving Thai food while wasting all your money away shopping in Beverly Hills? This is the spot for you! La Ong brings a refreshing twist to Thai cuisine, serving many of the classics while also having some innovative dishes, all presented with an elevated level of dining experience. The dishes are both delicious and beautiful to look at. The presentation is top notch and the authentic (and sometimes innovative) flavors are present with every bite. It's clear they really thought about each dish and put care into it. The service was top notch. They were incredibly attentive, friendly, and helped us pick out the best dishes for us given what we were looking for at the time. The ambience is top notch. It definitely meets the expectations given the location. The contemporary interior is upscale without feeling too pretentious (a trap many places fall into). Thai food, even when elevated, has to remain approachable and true to its roots and they reach that balance well. Overall, if you are craving Thai food in Beverly Hills of all places (like us), you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that there is indeed a restaurant for you. read more

Thai cravings? Solved. La Ong on Beverly Hills nails the balance between cozy and elevated. We tried the Crazy Wagyu, their luxe spin on grapow, and the Khao Soi, a rich, bold curry that stole the show. Both dishes were a feast for the eyes and the palate--presentation on point, flavors even better. This spot has that "family-run but make it fancy" vibe. Locals fill the tables, takeout bags are flying, and you just know you're in the right place. Sure, the prices are Beverly Hills-level, but you're getting high-quality, unique Thai dishes that are worth the splurge. Looking for a dinner spot when casual isn't cutting it, but you're not feeling super fancy? La Ong's your move. Elevated Thai perfection. Service was really awesome. read more

When I tell you that this food took us through a journey!! From our appetizers to our dessert! Let's start with how great the quality of food you get for the price which super hard to find in Beverly Hills. I'm sure famous people come in here all the time because it's just such a cute spot with greenery and beautiful interior design and different wall textures that capture the eye. There's also a nice painting of the restaurant owner's grandmother on the wall as this was dedicated to the woman that taught her to cook. I'm so happy my bestie took me here. The service was wonderful, our waiter knew we order lots of food and we had a small table so he added another table to make sure we were comfortable and we didn't even have to ask. They were on top of their service! The chicken wings were perfectly crispy and wonderfully glazed, the Thai tea was so good, the Pad See Ew had an amazing smokiness to it, and the Yellow Curry noodles were delectable! You can tell that so much love and intent was put into each plate that was created. I won't be able to stop dreaming about the food. I will absolutely be back with more friends and family. Make sure you come and change your life with this food! Do yourself a favor and get the Roti with coconut ice cream! As a side note, Jeanie Mai was there eating when I arrived. So I knew it was gonna be good! Sadly didn't get a picture because I didn't want to bother her while eating. read more

Good for a quick bite when you're at the triangle in Beverly Hills! This Thai restaurant is a nice surprise because most in this area are on the higher end. Food is delicious. Favs are Papaya Salad and Pad See Ew. read more

The place is so cute and the service is really sweet. Very accommodating and the portions are decent. Parking can be tricky depending on when you go, but I would say this is a nice place to come by for a date night or catching up with friends. I recommend the Thai Wings as the sauce was what had us raving the whole night. The pad see ew and pad thai were not as memorable but they were still tasty! read more
This restaurant is walking distance to many beauty/surgery center and it's a cute small restaurant with outdoor seating. Customer service is phenomenal-friendly and attentive. Got the chili prawns, coconut soup, green curry sea bass, and pad Thai. Loved all of it-maybe the least favorite is the soup; I'm not a big fan of coconut milk as my soup base. The seasoning is on par. Pad Thai is much different than most Thai restaurant; the noodles is a bit chewy and it's not on the sweet side like some places. There's a public parking around the corner that offers an hour free. read more
I was excited to try this place based off of a recommendation from a good friend! We came as soon as they opened and were quickly seated. The inside vibe is good (i wish there were some more of the traditional elements in the decor as i could see in the food presentation). Thai tea (10/10) -- very yummy no complaints Thai Wings -- best thing we had no complaints. The wings were even good the next day. Khao Soi (7.5/10) -- it was really yummy when it was piping hot, but I wish I got more of the beef flavor (it might've been overdone). Pad See Ew (9/10) -- so so so yummyyyy i was so happyyyyy I would say the food here is great, we loved that the waiter was honest about the mango not being the best for the mango sticky rice that day but still wish it was there :,). The only other kinda awkward part was that they brought out the main course while we were in the middle of the first wing and it was like hard to time eating both. Although the food was awesome, I'm not sure if it classifies itself as much beyond a bougie place to get drinks and good food w your friends. read more

I came here 3 times it was so good!!! The staff was so nice and remembered me. Great conversation a with them and the food was delicious. I ate it so fast I forgot to take pictures. Cute little place with gorgeous plants around and modern. Lunch and dinner all never disappointed. read more
Creative menu items, delicious food, nice atmosphere and our server Chrissy was absolutely delightful! I appreciate the deconstruction and reconstruction of classic Thai dishes. Some of the dishes were hit and miss with flavor, but overall dishes were flavorful. Presentation is a homerun here. Must try: -Holy Basil and Ribeye steak; we ordered it medium, yet it was deliverd medium well. The steak was very tender, flavorful, and served with generous portions of basil which we loved. -Sea Bass Southern Thai Curry; the fish was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The curry had the perfect amount of heat and was delightful -Tom Yum Rice with seafood; generous portions of scallops, shrimp and crab. Delicious riceberry is infused with thai basil, kaffir leaves, mushrooms, chili, and lime. -Longon compote; warm coconut sticky rice with coconut ice cream -Roti and coconut ice cream Yes! Have an extra scoop of coconut ice cream; it is absolutely sinfully good. Probably would not order again: -Chicken wings; perfectly crispy skin; however the sweet sauce was too sweet and sticky masking all other flavors. The chicken also had an aftertaste. -Chicharron; crispy pork belly with another very sweet sauce. Great crunch but nothing special. read more

Excellent service and casual atmosphere. The Thai Wings were surprisingly crispy and flavorful, although I wished it had a hint more sweetness to them. read more
