    (L) Spicy Eggplant Tofu
    Stephanie A.

    I come in for a quick lunch fix when I can after my busy day. I have to appreciate the lunch specials and the friendly service. Every time I have come here everyone is so kind and attentive. So I recently had the spicy basil tofu eggplant (I had it spicy) omg I fell in love. So delicious.. for me it beat out the curry I love. Thank you for always providing a delicious lunch! Thanks for making lunch so tasty and a quick experience.

    (L) Kra Pao Crispy Pork Belly

    Found this place while browsing Yelp for lunch specials and decided to give it a try. They have a pretty diverse lunch special menu with everything from rice dishes to soups and noodle dishes, so there are lots of options to choose from. I ordered the kra pao crispy pork belly. The portion was generous and a good value for the price. It was a solid meal, though nothing that really stood out to me. The restaurant has plenty of seating, a private parking lot, and the servers were friendly. We came on a Saturday afternoon, and it wasn't too busy, so it made for a relaxed lunch. Overall, a decent spot if you're looking for an affordable Thai lunch. I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back, but I'd stop in again if I happened to be in the area.

    We came on a Saturday for a late lunch and were surprised how they offer lunch specials even on weekends. Their food is very well priced and the portions are fair. My favorite dish was the Sweet and Sour Fish, it very good with the rice. They have indoor and outdoor seating, the AC was blasting on a warm day. ig: @cravingswithcat

    Very awesome vibe

    I arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes before opening and noticed the receptionist cleaning the glass and wiping the outdoor patio getting things ready for customers. She was friendly and waved from the inside. Once I came in, I seated at the outdoor patio where I requested. I was greeted by the waitress, who took my order in a great timely manner, and enjoyed the beautiful ambience of the outdoor patio while I waited for my food. The Thai tea was absolutely delicious. My food was extremely fresh and cooked perfectly. I enjoyed my afternoon in the beautiful environment and friendly staff. Thank you for having me and I'll be back soon.

    It has been years since I've been to Thai Dishes Manhattan Beach but today I made it back to this spot. I've always been a fan of their lunch specials and I was curious to see how it is years later. Their lunch specials now is what they call "Street Food Lunch." They've got 20 different items for $15.95 to choose from and each dish comes with their house salad with sesame dressing. This lunch special is served until 2pm daily. I was impressed with the variety that the Street Food Lunch menu offered. I love how they had some classic favorites as well as unique dishes that aren't commonly found. They had House Noodle Soup, Ba Mee Hung, BBQ Roasted Duck, Mint Leaves with Ground Chicken, Cashew Nut Chicken, Kao Pao Crispy Pork Belly, Chinese Broccoli with Crispy Pork Belly, Pad Thai Noodles with Shrimp and Chicken, Ba Raan Noodle Soup, Kao Soi Chicken, Mixed Vegetable, Garlic Pepper Pork, Spicy Eggplant Tofu, Spicy Fried Rice Chicken, Tom Yum Kai Noodle Soup, Pad Kee Mow Chicken, Pad See You Noodle with Beef and Chinese Broccoli, Kang Karee Chicken, Kang Pad Beef and Green Curry Shrimp. Certain dishes you could substitute protein for an extra $1 or add egg for $2. I was actually pleasantly surprised that several of the dishes already included egg. It was hard to choose from the good variety of items but my friend and I chose to get their Chinese Broccoli with Crispy Pork Belly and their Kao Soi Chicken. The Kao Soi Chicken was beautifully plated. It came with a tall stand of fried egg noodles on top of coconut curry broth with chicken, egg noodle, onions and pickled package. The Chinese Broccoli with Crispy Pork Belly came with lots of pork belly with stir fried Chinese Broccoli and sides of white rice and fried egg. Both dishes were delicious! I loved the creamy, rich coconut curry curry broth from the Kao Soi Noodle. There was lots of tender chicken in the soup and it paired well with the egg noodles I also tried my friend's dish and appreciated the crisp pork belly and flavorful Chinese Broccoli. The Thai flavors were on point! I definitely want to come back and try more of their Thai Street Food. I enjoyed lunch here very much. Not only were the entrees flavorful, they were also large in size. I even had enough for dinner. I am excited to try their other dishes like the Tom Yum Kai Noodle Soup and the Kang Karee Chicken.

    Consistently tasty thai food. The chicken ginger salad which is a version of nam sod was great as was the angel wings.

    Unfortunately, one of the least palatable Thai food places I've eaten. I was so excited to try it as I saw some good ratings. I LOVE pad see ew ("Pad See You") and I've always thought this dish, while not easy to master, as difficult to mess up -- I was wrong. Additionally the vegetable egg rolls were tasteless. I don't know, but key Thai flavors were missing to me. Two stars simply for flavor. It was very Manhattan Beach Thai food.

    Fish cakes were good
    Irene Q.

    Food was good. I would come back for green mango salad for sure! Gave 4 stars bcuz they messed up on my to-go order but they said they would credit me for my next visit. I'll update here when I come back. Loved the ambiance

    (L) Green Curry Shrimp
    Chrissy L.

    The Green Curry Shrimp and Bo Raan Noodle Soup were excellent. Both are comforting and vibrant dishes with just the right amount of spice. Thai Iced Tea and Thai Iced Coffee were great too.

    The customer service and hospitality at this place seriously could use some work. We ordered the Crying Tiger with white rice, water, and coke. It was disgusting as the crying tiger had bugs crawling on the plate and we informed the waiter. Additionally the meat was grey in color. There was no apology from the staff nor anyone trying to actively resolve our experience. They made us pay for the rice and coke ‍ A total of $8 for bugs on your plate I guess, I reallly could not fathom being charged when your plates come with live insects crawling all over. Never ever ever had an experience like this. Please train your staff to do better in situations like this.

    (L) Pad See You with Beef & Chinese Broccoli
    Stefan C.

    I've been going to this place for over 14 years. I tried their Pad Thai early on and was not impressed. Yesterday, I decided to give it another chance in hopes they improved their recipe. It turns out that they did! I remember it being dry and tasteless (which explains that nearly 14 years of avoiding it). This one, as my picture shows, had flavor and came with a generous portion as part of their lunch special. I'm not sure I'd get this regularly because their other dishes (especially their Pad See Ew) are more my style, but I'm glad I can come here whenever I'm looking for some good Pad Thai in the area.

    If you're looking for delicious and affordable Thai cuisine, Thai Dishes is a fantastic choice. We stopped by for lunch on a weekday, and the place was bustling--always a good sign! The easiest way to navigate the menu was through their Street Food Lunch Specials, which offer a variety of classic Thai dishes. I opted for the Kra Pao Crispy Pork Belly, which came served over rice with a fried egg. The crispy pork belly paired perfectly with the bold, spicy garlic sauce, and the mix of onions, bell peppers, green beans, and Thai basil gave it a fresh and flavorful kick. My friend went for the Spicy Fried Rice with Chicken, which had just the right amount of heat and was packed with great texture and taste. This place continues to be a favorite hang out place for the nearby office crowd. I plan to try some of the drinks on the menu next time.

    Came for an early dinner on a Saturday and had a pleasant experience. We were seated upon arrival and enjoyed their outdoor seating. It was a tad bit chilly, but they do have heat lamps. Good menu selection and flavorful food. They were also very attentive and made sure to check in with us during our meal. I ordered shrimp pad thai - very flavorful, extra saucy, and was delicious. A tad bit overpriced for the amount of food that you get, but still enjoyed our meal.

    Does the stir fried dishes come with rice or do I have to order a side of rice separately?

    Does their out door eating have heaters?

    I didn’t see any heaters on the patio when I last visited.

As far as decoration and space, I like the El Segundo location better. Also, the cocktails were well balanced and refreshing. Additionally, the staff from hostess to our server and busser were all amiable and professional. The downside was the food, which is the most important thing for the restaurant and determines if I will come back. I used to be so delighted at the flavors and creative little twists at Little Sister. However, the food these past two visits to Little Sister was basic at best. For example, we ordered the papaya salad and there was no flavors as in no dressing. We ordered the short ribs and the flavor was uneven and bland in 2/3rd of the meat and the noodles were also dry. Even their famous garlic noodle and crepe was too soggy and even bitter (overcooked ingredients). I was with good friends and with the cocktails, we still had a fun night but was very disappointed at the food has really gone down in the past few years. The sad thing is the quality of the ingredients was not the issue. Seems like the prep and execution has gotten lax and lazy and it really felt like the kitchen was phoning it in. I am still giving it a 3 stars instead of less stars to wish them improvement. The fried rice with prawns and imperial rolls still holds up. And due to their service staff, I cannot give them less. These days, it is hard for restaurants to get professional and decent staff so please appreciate them.

That said, the food was average at best, and there were a few things that really stood out. My biggest gripe is the $3 charge for rice. Even when ordering a curry, rice does not come with the meal, you have to pay extra for it. I honestly don't understand that. How are you supposed to eat curry without rice? The Thai shumai with chicken and shrimp was disappointing. The dumplings were dry, the wrappers felt dried out, and the vinegar dipping sauce lacked much flavor. The spring rolls were actually good and tasted fresh. Just keep in mind that shrimp is an extra $1 and doesn't automatically come with them. The peanut sauce was also different from the traditional Thai-style peanut sauce I was expecting. The green curry was okay. It came with a generous amount of chicken and vegetables, but unfortunately the chicken was pretty chewy. For me, the Penang curry was the best dish of the meal. It was flavorful overall, although I think it could have used a little more salt. Overall, if you're looking for mid-tier Thai food, you found it at Garden Thai. But personally, I'd save my money and go up the street to Kin D. I found the food to be better there, and rice actually comes with the curry--which, in my opinion, just makes sense.
