    Chicken Kra Pao with beer
    Jason S.

    First time coming here. I like the concept it's like topanga social but without the restaurants in each spot. I got the chicken kra pao it delicious perfect spicy and seasoning. The food came out pretty fast as well. I definitely will be back to try more dishes. You can tell they get a lot of DoorDash, Grubhub etc orders.

    Pork Kra Pao, Thai Tea Bottled

    Muy Thai is part of The Colony, collection of restaurants with focus on pick-up and food app delivery. The Colony rotates through different BOGO deals and I was able to get two bowls for the price of one. Street parking or paid lot on Butler. For the food: Pork Kra Pao is tasty and fragrant with the classic Thai basil flavor. The spice level is customizable from No Spice to Muy Spicy. The dish was a bit too salty for me, so the 2nd bowl was turned into fried rice. Add Thai Tea - it's sweet, strong and a nice way to round out the meal.

    Pad Thai in the back and papaya salad

    I order from this Thai spot at least once a week on UberEats because it never disappoints. The food is always flavorful and delivered so fast. Today I tried the papaya salad for the first time and omg... SO good. Crunchy, tangy, and spicy basically the perfect bite. Definitely adding this to my regular rotation. If you're looking for solid Thai food that hits every time, this is the spot!

    Ordered from this place last night and will definitely be ordering again. Very fresh tasting Thai food and good size portions. Their prices are unbeatable (especially if your delivery service has a special). We got the Pad See Ew and the Chicken Kra Prao - both were so tasty. Can't wait to try their other items. We also got the Thai iced tea, which was also really nice. **SPICY WARNING (even the mild has a good kick to it). The Thai iced tea helped balance out the spiciness.

    It's always feels a little sketch when you order Thai food in West LA unless you are at one of the well-known establishments. I was looking for a quick meal so decided with Muy Thai at the Colony. I got the Chicken Kra Pow and I was pleasantly surprised. I came in with some low expectations and also coming from a ghost kitchen but the flavor actually packed a pretty authentic punch. The basil and thai spices were there, the chicken was moist and tender, and it had a bit of kick from the chilis! The flavoring was a bit sweet for my liking even though Thai food usually has a bit of sweetness in it. Also, the portions were pretty solid! I expected so much less but it was a hefty portion. The other reviews are real and I'd recommend Muy Thai for a pretty solid meal.

    Muy Thai in Sawtelle knows what's up! So I've been to Thailand numerous times and the food at Muy Thai is delicious and authentic. The prices are also very reasonable with great portion sizes. I went with a friend to the grand opening and the wait was wild and crazy. We got there at 11:30 a.m. and they had such phenomenal promotions, basically, the first few guests were treated with free Thai tea and some swag, I even got a t-shirt! My buddy and I ordered their most popular items, the pad kra pow beef for $12.49 and chicken for $9.99. It was quite spicy ahahah. It was good! But a bit spicy ahaha, so be prepared for the heat, of course, you can ask for it to be more mild or no spice. Muy Thai is part of the Colony, which is a ghost kitchen with many different vendors like Goop Kitchen, Main Chick Hot Chicken, and Percolate tea, coffee, and boba. There's plenty of free parking around the area in the residential neighborhood, just be sure to read the signs!

    Shrimp Kra Pao

    If you're looking for a new, affordable and authentic Thai restaurant in West LA, you definitely have to CURRY up and THAI out @eatmuythai at the @colony_la . Make sure to check out the grand opening 5/6 at 12 PM for: free pad kra pao for the first 100 guests BOGO any item for the next 100 guests 25% off all day all day raffle to win Apple AirPods Max, a 55' Smart TV, or Apple Watch 25% off voucher free swag and Thai tea My recommendations: Shrimp pad thai ($8.99): one of my favorite dishes! I loved how the noodles had a slightly sweet, tangy flavor, although the shrimps were a bit small. Beef pad see ew ($8.99): impressed with the authenticity and incredible quality of the beef, but I did find it a bit too savory after a few bites Chicken red curry ($11.99): this was super creamy and flavorful, and I would highly recommend! Shrimp kra pao ($13.49): this was so unique and delicious, but I would recommend keeping the spice level at mild (and this is from someone with a VERY HIGH spice tolerance) Mango sticky rice ($4.99): this was so good! Came out fresh and warm Thai tea ($3.99): this is a must get in my book! Definitely one of the best and most creamy/fragrant Thai milk teas I've tried. Service was a bit slow, but I understand that they're still a new restaurant and working out kinks. I also really appreciated how the employees came out to check on us and brought the food out to the outdoor seating area (although I wished had a bit more coverage due to the hot sun). I also love the restaurants available at the Colony, and I would highly recommend mixing and matching in your order!

    Chicken Red Curry
    Karen T.

    I ordered delivery because UberEats had BOGO promotion and it was really good! I got the chicken red curry and pork kra pao and really loved both of them. The portion was pretty good and both dishes were delicious even reheated since I had some the next day. The price was also affordable I'm already looking forward to my next order here!

    Pork Kra Pao and Thai Tea Bottled
    Derek T.

    Love this spot as it has very authentic kra pao! It food is flavorful and spicy just how I like it. The Thai tea is also delicious and refreshing! I've ordered this Togo on delivery apps and they usually have a deal or promotion going on. I think this spot if very worth it and can't get this quality of food anywhere else!

    Quick and friendly service! The portion was a little smaller than expected for $12 and there were barely any bean sprouts or veggies. The noodles were stuck together too. I'd get something else from their menu!

    Beef Kra Pao
    Preston I.

    Ordered the beef kra pao to go. Beef was seasoned well. I wish the egg was cooked just a tad bit more. Be careful when choosing your spice level, because when they say spicy, they mean it! Thai tea on the side was good, but not great compared to others I've had. Would come back here again.

The regular menu is quite expensive with the cheapest at $17 for appetizer and salad options and most expensive at a whooping $80. The lunch menu was more affordable but still on the pricey side $21-$32 with add on options. The waitress was taking our orders and what surprised me was with my co-worker ordered the pad see ew and the waitress asked her how spicy she wants it. I was aw shocked. I'm not a Thai food expert but I do know pad see ew is a noodles dish that's offers a sweet soy sauce flavor. Never served spicy. I didn't get to try the dish but when I asked my co worker how it taste she said it was spicy and not sweet at all. I'm not sure that was an authentic pad see ew. I ordered from the lunch menu and got the tumeric chicken, with steamed vegetables and paid extra $7 to substitute for a papaya salad. I asked for #2 spice level but it was not spicy at all. Other co workers said they asked for medium but it was way too spicy. So it looks like their spicy levels are inconsistent. I'm not sure how this restaurant can justify the prices with the quality they are serving. Probably won't be back. Service was mediocre. Didn't offer to refill our waters. Parking is metered parking or paid lot.

I felt like I came to eat and my mom's house. They take Debit Card and Apple Pay WITH a pin only. I forgot my wallet and paid with Apple Pay. It did not have a place for tip which made me feel awful. At the end I apologized and she was like "it's ok, next time." And she was genuinely fine with it. She reassured me not to worry about it. So I'm determined to come back to tip her because if anybody deserved a tip it was her. I ordered Pad Thai with tofu- I like to order peanut sauce on the side and the woman found it interesting and struck a non judgmental conversion about it. I could really tell she was genuinely curious. This was my favorite dish. It was good. I also ordered spicy fried rice with tofu and spicy panang curry with vegetables. I chose 4 out of a 6 for spicy and it was not spicy at all for me. The rice was fine, nothing extraordinary and nothing bad. The panang curry was yummy. I don't know if it's regional but it was very light in taste and light in thickness. BUT I enjoyed it for what it was. Felt like I had gotten home made chicken soup or something like that comforting and not overly processed. Maybe it's because I ordered it with no protein and just vegetables. I ordered a lot of food so I explained to her that I was going to eat some and take the rest to go. When she brought the food she brought it nicely packed without a bag. She also brought me a real plate and utensils to eat here. She let me know that when I was ready she'd bring a bag which I thought was thoughtful. She also made sure to say "take your time, no need to rush. We close at 8" and it was 5pm. Again, it felt genuinely nurturing, she wanted to make sure I felt taken care of and welcomed. It meant a lot because I was frazzled from forgetting my wallet and from having a hard day at work. This was my first time here and it won't be my last. There is a small lot on site. Prices were very reasonable.

I have written at least 2 glowing reviews of the restaurant in the past and wish this could be one of them, but it's not. Over the last 4-5 days I have tried no less than 2 dozen times to call the restaurant during proper business hours to order food for pick-up as I often do. The phone rang and rang to no avail. I live too far from the restaurant to just pop up and place an order so I rely on calling ahead. I have been a customer of this restaurant for at least the last 9 years and have almost never had the aforementioned experience. Though I do recall not being able to get a call through several times on one or two occasions in the relatively distant past. Today I was finally able to get a call through and began placing my order which includes shrimp. I ALWAYS request the tail (with shells) to be removed from the shrimp as I find it quite difficult to enjoy my meal if I'm constantly having to pick off shells with my hands. It's unsanitary and messy. Removing the tails from 15-20 shrimp prior to adding to an entree or soup should take no more than 60 seconds and that's if one is moving at a glacial pace. However, today I was told that the kitchen was too busy to honor my request. I assured the lady taking my order than I was a loyal customer and make this request will every order I place and it is always honored. She repeated her claim that the kitchen was too busy and refused to do it. I cancelled my order and ended the call. Now I usually order food from the restaurant 4-5 times a month and usually spend about $65 each time not including tip. That is approximately $325 per month of my hard earned money that I give to this restaurant in exchange for great food and service. I am appalled and quite upset that having been a loyal customer for almost a decade and spending as much money there as I do per month that they could at least honor my patronage by simply taking an additional 60 seconds in the kitchen to make my meal more enjoyable. Her refusal to do such a minuscule task has deeply soured my experience with Hoy-Ka not to mention the fact that I could not reach the restaurant for almost a week by phone for no apparent reason. I will not be going back to this restaurant until they rectify this situation.

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.

The Pad Thai was the best I've had outside of Thailand. Extremely well balanced, not too sweet, not too tangy, not drowning in sauce, just perfectly done with great noodle texture and loaded with shrimp. The Pad Kee Mao was so flavorful. Smoky, spicy, full of flavor, and had that proper "wok hei" char that makes noodles addictive. The Pad See Ew was equally rich and savory, and deeply satisfying. We also got the turnip omelette (Kai Jeow with preserved radish) and it blew my mind, honestly. It is so simple, but packed with flavor. Somehow one of the best egg dishes I've ever had. The morning glory with pork was another standout, super fresh, garlicky, and cooked perfectly. Everything came out hot, portions were generous, and the whole table went silent because the food is too good to talk through lol. On top of that, the servers were super nice, friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better despite how busy it was :) Packed restaurant, amazing energy, AMAZING food.

We got the raw shrimp salad, spicy catfish and bbq pork over rice. The raw shrimp "salad" is probably the best thing we've ate, but the chili sauce was over powering and couldn't really taste the freshness of the shrimp. And I feel like there could've been saw garlic to go along with it, but nope, just decorative cabbages that is not edible. As for the bbq pork over rice, the sausage was good and the crispy pork too. But the BBQ pork itself was HORRIBLE I literally spit it out. It tasted like old refrigerated dry meat, barely edible. And then the spicy catfish, the portion was so small, it looked like someone ate half of it. The pieces very tiny and it was so dry it tasted like it was refried. The spicy sauce didn't help much. And I overheard the table next to us waited around 30 mins for their dishes. Overall, I'll not be coming back here. There are much better Thai spots than this. Not to mention the parking is horrible as it was valet only on a Saturday.
