Update: I went back for my second time. After being seated and ordering I had to sit around for 35 minutes for my dish and there were only two other couples inside. Maybe they were only focusing on the to-go orders, but it was annoying. When my food arrived it wasn't nearly as good as last time I had stopped in. I will continue my search for a Thai place. So far Thai Basil in Lakewood is the best best best! ------ Original review: Went to Thai BBQ tonight for the first time. I have driven by this place a lot so I thought I'd try it out. I convinced my friend who wanted to go to Phuket on second to try this out with me. We were delighted in the new (and better) Thai restaurant. We started with Spring Rolls ($5.50). They were good, nothing amazing, but good. We ordered two dishes and split them. We got Panang, a red curry dish ($7.50) and Thai Chow Mein ($6.95). Panang is one of my favorite Thai dishes and I have only ever had Chinese Chow Mein. I don't really care for Chinese Chow Mein so I wasn't too excited about getting Thai Chow Mein. Boy was I surprised! It was soooooooo good! I enjoed the Chow Mein more than the Panang, but it was probably due to it being surprisingly good and new to me. I still want to try some other Thai restaurants in Long Beach, but I will be glad to return here anytime. read more

One of my best friends turned me on to this place almost a decade ago. It was GREAT! I'm happy to report that in '06, this place has not changed one bit. Great food, great service and the people are so friendly! My faves: "wings of angel", bbq spareribs, glass noodles, pad thai... I ordered party platters for my friend's birthday party and everybody loved them! A neighborhood restaurant worth going to - again and again.... P.S. My partner swore up and down that this place did not exist. He drove by the restaurant twice a day for the last year and a half. Didn't notice it until I brought him there one night. He loves it almost as much as I do now.... Oh, and they DELIVER !!!! Which is FABU in our book! read more

I enjoy this food every time I come. Good solid Thai and the prices are wonderful. We had the BBQ ribs, beef satay and pad see eew. We were pleased. However I must admit that once our meal was over I noticed that the actual facility needs cleaning. Stains on the glass dividing the booths, dust on everything from the ceiling fan wires down to the booth dividers. Very dusty restaurant. I couldn't help but to wonder if the kitchen was the same... I gave 3 stars because this place needs cleaning. Good food dusty dining. read more

Today was my first and last time coming here - very very slow service and I watched the workers wipe their nose, touch their hair, and handle credit card and cash payments then proceed to pick up pieces of chicken and vegetables without washing their hands. Sooo gross! read more

I am not a chronic Thai Food person so, the mood has to hit me 2-3 days before so I can obsess on it! I've come here several times and mostly for the convieniance (because it is a short trip up the street). I will say it isn't generic and it isn't wowish. However, this time being somewhere in the middle is a good thing. Yes, a VERY good thing! I first tried the Chow Mein with Chicken and the Spring Rolls. The dipping sauce was just as good as the dipping sauce at The Bicycle Club casino I ised to go to when I would get their Vietnamise Egg Rolls. Also, this is usually always my main stay order because it's easy and fills me up. Today I ordered the Pad See Ew (flat glass noodles and Broccoli with chicken) I added my own shrimp and yellow bell peppers with olive oil as to use the shrimp which I had taken out 3 days prior (see what I mean by the mood has to hit me?) Of course the meal was great and I'm still smacki'n my lips! The owner/manager is great and ALWAYS recognizes my voice when I call; mind you like I said I'm not a frequent flier here so that is very cool! She always teases me how she wished she was so well off to work from home and take a leisurely lunch. I tease her back and say "oh please, you're probably like and old jewish woman friend I knew who stuffed all her money in every orafice of her car and home!" BTW they are 1-2..sometimes 3 dollars cheaper than other Thai places and the quality is still spot on. read more

I ordered the green curry and pineapple curry for pickup. They told me 15 mins, and when I walked in my order was hot and ready, no waiting! They were spot on with the timing. The pineapple curry was a bit more sweet that spicy, but still pretty good. That green curry though! Always a go-to, and they make it good! Lots of bamboo shoots, zucchini, and for me, perfect amount of chicken (and a couple sprigs of basil too.) Each order of curry comes with a generous bowl of white rice. I would be back for the green curry! :) read more

1. great tasting, yummity yum yum, food. 2. price is not too bad. 3. um, there girls that work there are cute and nice. 4. i did notice that they make their food a little spicier than other places. which is cool with me. read more

Yum! I loooove Thai BBQ!! You HAVE to get the spareribs here! Or the BBQ chicken....or their pad see ew...or the tom yum khai or or or...everything is really really good. It never gets really busy and the service is always friendly and efficient. Their takeout service is super fast too...and the prices are pretty cheap, especially for the lunch specials. Made a trip back here yesterday with my friends and the servers were so friendly! First, she commented me on my shoes "Oooh cute!" and she kept on offering to close the blinds/shades since the sun was kind of bright. When she came back, she asked my friend "Are you sure you're okay? The sun isn't hitting your eyes?" It's little things like that which make Thai BBQ different from other restaurants. True, the atmosphere isn't something to rave about, and the parking kind of sucks, but they make up for it with their service and food. Aaaand they have an aquarium in the restaurant (I haven't been to ONE Thai BBQ which doesn't have one!) with a blowfish inside :) Anyways, I love this place. Mmm...just thinking about it is making me crave a huge mug of thai iced tea and pad thai right now! read more

Two words, Crispy Duck. One bite of this deep fried fowl paired with amazing honey glaze sauce and shrimp fried rice and you, too, shall be converted to the cult of crispy duck. This dish alone turned yet another mundane night of delivery into a foodgasmic experience. I'm not kidding, try a bite of crispy fatty duck doused in sauce together in the same spoonful as the fried rice; it's seriously amazing. The rest of the meal was pretty solid. Thai iced tea + pad see ew. It would have been nice if the drink could be ordered in a bigger size because I just inhale the stuff. And the pad see ew was good, though I like Thai Silk's version better. Oh, we also got an order of the "wings of angel," which the boy really enjoyed. Tasted more like an over-hyped eggroll to me. I did find the presentation of this dish (two chicken wings crossed in the shape of angel wings) just a tad bit disturbing. :P P.S. only downside was the 45min wait for delivery. I think Merced's Mexican Restaurant on Broadway is spoiling me with its 10 minute deliveries. read more

I always went to the Original Thai BBQ in Glendale. Good lunch and date spot. Even got to see the space shuttle fly over while there one day. Moved to Long Beach a year ago and was so happy to have some really good comfort food. Satay, spare ribs, pad thai, bbq chicken...all good read more

I've been wanting this curry again for a hot minute because I live out of town. I'm a Yellow curry girl and I LOVED their yellow curry with the fried rice substitute from the first bite a year ago. Have been wanting it again ever since with each subsequent yellow curry I've tried. Nothing comes close! Sweet and mildly spicy deliciousness. I grabbed some crab rangoons as well which actually had lil bits of crab meat in them. You could see it! What?!! Who knew. Really good and when I come to town again I'll DEF be back. read more

I was in the mood for Thai food. We were driving by and came accross this restaurant. The food was great. The service was great and the food came out fast. Highly recommend this place. Price was very reasonable. read more

Originally from NC and this is by far the best bbq I've tasted! All for a fair price ribs/chicken! Can't go wrong with any of the other dishes as well. read more

Brian and I went after work tonight, and I tried their Thai BBQ chicken, and was very happy. The chicken falls off the bone, and the bbq sauce is light, sweet and a little hot. I have been here a handful of times, and I have decided that my very favorite dish is their pad see ew. Tonight we got it with beef, and even though I made a little vow that I wouldn't have a lot of carbs tonight, I did take extra bites, because I do feel that the pad see ew here (take your pick; with chicken, beef, or tofu) is noodley bliss! I also appreciate that they served crushed ice in their drinks - tonight I had lemonade, and with crushed ice, it was like having a dessert. The service is good, and the wait for food is minimal; it is a small place with a giant aquarium, located in a teeny-tiny strip mall, but the food is the point, and the point is well-made here. read more

Super duper fast and awesome value for the price and convenience! They deliver and they have awesome lunch and dinner specials Pineapple Fried Rice, Pad thai, Pad See Ew, Glass Noodles, Spareribs, Chicken, Panang, everything I've ordered here, I've loved...my only wish is that they would use chinese broccoli in their pad see ew Thai Iced tea to top off your meal!!! YUM YUM GOOD read more

Love love love! Love their shrimp fried rice, their chicken bbq (S1) and their pad Thai! And of course their Thai iced tea. Yummmm!!

Worst service ever, this was used to be my favorite place since I am a local long beach resident. Through out the time management changed and the servers are really terrible and horrible customer service incorrect food and demanding on the gratuity so disappointing read more

Where do I start. I ordered on doordash a seafood soup and chow mein, I SPECIFICALLY said NOT SPICY for the soup because it was for my 2 children and they gave it spicy, seafood soup says it has crab and they didn't put crab, soup tastes like water with shrimp condiment. The chowmein tastes like the one you put in the microwave ‍over all would not recommend. read more

Got our cold food when we got it and we don't live far at all, plus the drink was outside the cup as shown in picture. We gave them a decent tip for what!?Live&Learn YELPERS! read more

This is where I go when I'm craving take out Thai food! My go tos are always: yellow curry, pad see eew and fried tofu. I've never eaten here, only carry out via boyfriend, so I can't comment the place but I damn I love the food. read more

Every time I go to a Thai place I need to try their Pad Thai, and I would say the first time having this place's Pad Thai, it was not good at all. It was super dry and had no taste to it. I was very disappointed in it. Or maybe it was because I got there right before it was closing. That could have made a huge difference on how it was prepared. The Pad See Ew was super good. I think the best Pad See Ew I've had actually. Not sure why it is but it's pretty damn good. Second time coming here, I had a Pad Thai craving after a long adventure day in Santa Ana for unlimited mimosas. Had the second go around and man this was way better than what I have remembered. Or maybe it was the mimosas talking but still it was super good. I couldn't finish so I saved like half of it for the next day, and next day Pad Thai is usually really good. And this was so good, I want to go and get a plate right now. Come check this place out, they have a real cool fish tank in the middle with live coral. read more

The food at this Thai BBQ is much better than Cerritos. I've been going to the branch in Cerritos since high school I wish I would have known about the Long Beach branch. Just like most things here in So Cal it's a franchise. The food suppose to taste the same and look the same as the other branch stores. We ordered the Beef Satay dinner (s8), BBQ chicken dinner (s1) and the pad thai. The chicken tasted grilled and juicy - the accompanying rice was flavorful. The beef satay was cooked well done - don't think you have a choice and as always I love the cucumber salad. The pad thai was okay. I've had better. In all it's an okay meal. My sister in laws Thai and she said "it's fast food Thai - not like my mom's home made cooking." read more

In all honesty I got what I expected. Americanized, overly sauced and sweetened pseudo-Asian food. And it was good lol. I'll start off by saying that our waitress Angela was a sweetheart and very attentive to our table. We ordered Pad See Ew, chicken fried rice, BBQ chicken and pineapple curry. All told $37. Not bad. Kids liked just about everything. And they got to find Nemo a few times in the big fish tank. read more

Found them because of Yelp It's almost bad I live so close because now I will be coming too often. The pad see eew with chicken is so good and they have the best crushed ice for drinks personally I love it with Thai tea or a Coke read more

I love this place and usually come here but this time when I walked in, the lady who I've never seen before did not acknowledge me at all. So I stood around for at least 5min looking at the menu and still wasn't acknowledge. As easily as she could've got me seated she continue not to acknowledge me at all. read more

Friendly cashier. Food is was average, nothing to rave about... I don't know if it's worth the price increase, but that's just me. Overall, better Thai food options available. read more

2 words Kai Yang (chicken barbecue) been coming to the LB and Cerritos locations...They are the original Thai restaurant!

AMAZING! I haven't had a bad experience yet and I've eaten here roughly 10 times. The ribs are phenomenal -- fall of the bone, full of flavor, the rice was even tasty and rice isn't usually the main attraction or even listed but THIS RICE is yummyyyyy. Delivery is prompt and friendly. I actually have not a single negative thing to say. read more

Not only did delivery take an hour and a half (and 45 minutes longer than quoted) but when we got our food it was cold. Then the food wasn't even good. The Spicy Basil Beef lacked beef and the little beef that was in it was tough. The portion was also so small for the price. More than half the container was rice, and wasn't advertised to come with rice. The crab wontons were soggy but not the worst thing. I will never eat at this place again. Complete garbage. read more

A quick and dirty review for a quick and kinda dirty strip-mall joint. (OK, it's not dirty, but my chair WAS sticky.) Pluses: - friendly service - lunch specials - sweet and drippy bbq sauce -- like syrup for your meats! - fried rice - dressing that tastes like 1000 island without the creepy orange color Deltas: - sticky chair - valances on the gigantic fish tanks Clearly they're doing something right when all I can recommend they update are their aquarium treatments and simple housekeeping. I must be honest, I came here not very hungry at all. It was hot outside and I was a little drunk from mimosas, but the pork spare rib plate I ordered was smokey and sweet and tender. I had no choice but to clean my plate. read more

Update - I did finally get a call from the manager at the restaurant about my complaint on the portion size on the chili beef and sweet & sour chicken. He apologized and said that others have complained of the portion size but that it's the owners who decide the portion size on some specific items. Unfortunately they won't change the portion size for 7.95. Oh well. They offered to make things better...I will be there to pick up my lunch soon. I do appreciate the follow up. Like I said before. I am a fair reviewer. I do want to give people a chance. read more

When you're in LA Thai Original BBQ is great, but here in Long Beach, less than wonderful. The food is mediocre if you just want a thai fix, but nothing that will blow you away, unless you haven't experienced a lot of thai food. Its good for what it is. read more

The food is good, some of the dishes (drunken noodles) that indicate that they are spicy aren't really spicy and I feel it should be. The BBQ chicken is incredibly tender and tasty. I really have enjoyed everything that I have ordered here. Service can be slow; both times I've gone there has only been once server so that could explain it. Wish there was a little more selection as far as beverages go, I don't drink soda and I usually end up settling for the tap water. Good portions for sharing, good prices. read more

Food is awesome & delivery is always on time or even delivered earlier than expected.

I LOOOOVE beef satay from here. Its like crack to me. Its the only thing I've really tried here and its the only thing I crave for when I'm there =D. The service is pretty good. Very fast and friendly service from most of them. Update: Pad Thai is delicious, great flavor and amount of sauce! As well as their BBQ chicken...omg fall off the bone tender! THEY DELIVER!! I love that about them. read more

Pros: Friendly staff, good food, & cheap. Love their garlic spare ribs, and beef salad. Cons: Small parking lot. read more

I used to live in the area and would often stop by for dinner or they would deliver. The place is nice and quiet. It looks family owned. I had no complaints of the food and I was able to go back time and again. From what I can remember it was A-ok. read more
