    Pineapple Fried Rice...yum!
    Rocky B.

    So happy I found this place. It reminds me of Vegan Glory in my old neighborhood. I got the Tom Kha Soup with Tofu spicy and it was wonderful! It was filling flavorful and had me sniffing up a storm with a spice level. I also ordered the Roti with Guac and again it was delicious. My husband got the Pineapple Fried Rice and I had a few bites and it was so tasty. He also ordered the Gyoza and it was crispy pack full of flavor and not greasy. Plenty of parking in back, and we will definitely return.

    Dumplings

    Not a vegan but I could very easily eat this everyday! Needless to say this was such a pleasant and satisfying dining experience for me. This place has been open for 15 years! That's 15 years I've been missing out. I ordered the vegetable pad thai. The vegetables were cooked to perfection! Hot, soft, yet crunchy and Fresh! Serving is quite generous. Had the orange chicken. Tasted heavenly! The sauce on this dish is finger licking good! Sweet, thin and saucy!! The batteted soy chicken is crispy, tender and as carnivore, I never knew soy chicken could taste so good! Had an order of steamed dumplings. My expectations were low, just cause I've had them at other places before and they were always ok. These were from another planet!! I could not put my fork down! The sauce was insanely delicious! Had a very refreshing glass of Thai iced tea. Let me tell you, this I took my time with cause I couldn't stop Eating!! If I had to describe it, I would say it was perfectly balanced. Not too strong and or sweet. I loved it! And to finish it off I ordered a vegan chocolate cake. Let me tell you, vegans have it good!! This was definitely the cherry on top! And I must have looked like someone who had not eaten in days, I was just devouring everything on my plate. Ryan if you see this. Thank you once again for the excellent and pleasant service. You truly made us feel welcomed and accommodated. Best believe we will be back. This time I'll bring the whole family. And I'm telling all my friend about this wonderful place! My compliments to the chef's! Cooking this good deserves much recognition and appreciation! Thank you! I do have one regret and that is, having waited so long to walk in. The place is clean, comfortable and warm. Parking is no issue. Just walk in! You will not regret it.

    The food is so fresh, tasty, and reasonably priced. The service is top-notch, and the dining area is very nice. LA Vegan you have a new fan.

    Thai tea one with soy and one with coconut
    Vanessa R.

    This review is based strictly off of the Thai tea. It is the best Thai tea I've had in the area. My boyfriend and I went three days in a row because it is so good and addicting. 10/10

    Drunken Noodle

    This is my go to place for vegan Thai. The "orange chicken" is so good and my fav item on the menu. Paired with Thai tea and fried rice, yum! Service was good, I was concerned before going after reading other reviews. They also offer vegan tacos and burgers but I have not ventured past the Thai menu. You can dine in or get it to go, either way the food is ready quick. Street parking is available and never been a problem.

    I'm not a vegan but one of my roommates is, so we decided to try this spot a few weeks ago! Parking is pretty limited as it's just metered street parking, and the interior is super small. A lot of calls for takeout came in while we were there, so it seems to be a popular grab and go spot! Our server was very friendly, and our food came out extremely fast. I ordered the drunken noodles, which were perfectly spicy and cooked so nicely. The orange "chicken" also looked very good. Overall a nice spot for Thai especially if you have any dietary restrictions!

    I have been at this restaurant a few times before, having performed here with my sketch group and…read morealso coming for dinner before seeing shows at Center Theatre Group. Each time I've come the waitstaff has been super friendly, and the food amazing. So, when planning a little birthday lunch for my mom's 81st birthday, this was one of the first places I thought of. My mom lives in south LA and we live in the valley, so after picking her up, we wouldn't have to travel far to eat. Although we planned to arrive to the restaurant at 2, traffic was horrible and we arrived at 230pm. After looking for parking, I dropped the fam off at 2:40 so they could sit and look at the menu while I found parking. I get a text from my husband saying they closed at 3 so hurry. This was news to me, as I thought they closed at 5. I found parking and rushed in at 2:48, to see my family outside the restaurant. Perplexed, I went in to ask if we could still eat, as it wasn't yet 3pm. No wait staff came to the front to greet me, so I walked in a bit and asked the waiter if it was okay to eat. The waiter said we close in ten. I said I thought the website said you closed at 5. I must have read it wrong. I understand, but it's not 3 and we came a bit of a distance and it's my mom's 81st birthday. The waiter, whose name is Jack, offered to ask the kitchen if they would still make food. I said yes please would you ask? While Jack was asking, another waiter asked me if I had been helped. I told him yes, that Jack was asking the kitchen if we could still have lunch. This waiter says, we're closing in 10. I'd like to have lunch too. And walks away. Yes, with shade. Jack returns and says it's fine as long as we can order within a few minutes of getting the menu. I say great and we all come in. The 2nd waiter takes our order with the least amount of personality he possibly can, and the whole lunch is slightly awkward and we're not able to truly enjoy ourselves with the feeling of "we better hurry up and eat" lingering. By the time we ordered and received our food (which was delicious as usual) , there were still 4 other groups of customers there, and we actually left the restaurant within a minute or two after the last customers before us. Also, no one came around to ask how our food was and if we needed anything. I'm giving 3 stars because this experience didn't quite sit right with me. Yes, it was near closing, but your doors weren't closed and there was no sign saying last call/order at 2:45 or anything like that. I feel like once the kitchen approved making our lunch, customer service should have been at its peak for paying customers, who gave no attitude and tried to be as polite with the ask as possible. It was not. I still tipped 25%, because Jack (waiter 1) was polite and my 81 old mama who I was celebrating raised me that way, but I'm not sure I'll patronize them again.

I accidentally…read morecame across it while stuck in traffic and we've been craving it and coming back a couple times within a month. We live over an hour away. The chicken stays crispy for a long time and reheats nicely as leftovers. Everything we've ordered is really good and crave-worthy. We got the lucky catsu, curry catsu, crispy shrimp, spam masubi, catsu masubi, orange chicken, crispy chicken. Top two favorites are lucky and curry catsu. Small things I'd personally wish to change is that the onion is too strong in the macaroni salad. Wish it wasn't in there period. And the rice is a little on the dryer side and it sticks to the container- so when you scrape up the last bits of rice, you could be eating the paper from the container. I like that they use compostable containers though!! But yeah the rice is on the harder side especially as leftovers. But whatever, their main items are bomb and makes me not care about anything else. Service is quick! Note: it is not a sit down restaurant. You order (ahead) and park on the street and call them to let them know you're outside. They'll bring the food out. Reception isn't great outside fyi. I've been here 3 times and never last long enough to get a photo before digging in. There are two other vegan restaurants right next to it, same concept - order and pick up. Great for different options if one is craving Mexican from Cena or hot dogs from All franks.

Loaded Island Fried Chicken Fries was really good and they put sauces on the side. Never disappointed with the Mac box. Hibachi spam and egg fried rice was expectedly salty which we loved. Asian fire wings was pleasantly tasty; glad it didn't set my mouth on fire. Chow mein was okay. When you carry it to your car, just be careful as sometimes the sauces are tilted and the lids might pop off and leak a bit. We order ahead so we can pick up and go. You can add utensils to the order. If you're extremely hungry and want to eat right away, there is a convenient park across the street but be on the look out for homeless.
