Love this place. Staff is great, remembered my regular order of Khao Soi Khai. This was the first place I tried that dish and was obsessed, used to get it very regularly and the portions are great and I would often take some home and eat a full meal with the leftovers. Cozy ambiance, love the fish read more

The Pad Thai at Thai Fresh Cafe was delicious. The noodles had a balance of savory, sweet, and tangy flavors, with bean sprouts, green onions, egg, and crushed peanuts. read more

Wow how disgusting and disappointing this Crying tiger dish was. Placed order online and they did not get the order. I had to sit and wait for the order to be cooked. I really wish I would had looked at the steak before I left the restaurant because I wouldn't of paid the 20.00 for nothing but fat. I will not be returning to this restaurant. read more

Thai Fresh Cafe - Crying tiger. This dish was. Nothing but fat and disgusting - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

If you're a fan of great thai food, and live on the West side, there is no question this place should be at the top of your list. Being a green curry fiend, I always get their green curry and it is solid, but holy cats their __Massaman curry is world changing__. Absolutely recommend their chewy, mochi-like roti that accompanies the dish. The papaya salad is refreshing and is great spicy or mild depending on your tolerance, and their pineapple fried rice is perfectly balanced, not too sweet like many others. I'm fortunate to live close enough that I just grab it for take out to avoid the parking situation, and the quality of their packing absolutely speaks to the love and care they put into their food. Wet items are double bagged, cardboard dividers are used at every layer to keep the package stable; no items are crammed into a corner waiting for a spill. Finally, it's pretty obvious that whoever was in the front of the house 3 years ago driving the 1-star reviews is gone, because I've only had a friendly face (with NOT blonde hair :) happily greet me every time I go to pick up my order. 5/5 stars, no notes! read more

Came in Saturday night after the rush, no one else here when we arrived. Got pumpkin curry which was mostly liquid and lacking more veggies, hardly any pumpkin. The Pad see ew was decent. They play radio station music with commercials which are annoying to hear. After we finished it took a while to get our check as our server was busy tending two new customers who came in. read more

Thai food cravings definitely satisfied! Went with a few friends on a late Thursday afternoon. The interior was really cute and cozy but also really small. However, they did have outdoor seating! There was only like one parking spot available in front of the business, so you can try parking at Sprouts but you didn't hear it from me What we got: - Pad see ew, which was a decent portion size for $15. Good ratio of veggies to protein! - Yellow curry was creamy and savory! Comes with a serving of rice for $15 - Panang curry had some kick to it and was creamy and super flavorful! It had a lot of beef chunks as well, which I appreciated. Also comes with a serving of rice for $15 Overall, this restaurant is a solid choice for Thai food with reasonable prices. Our server was attentive and nice as well :) I would definitely come back to try other items on the menu! read more

This restaurant is just a delight. The food is wonderful. The service is so welcoming in a cozy setting. The flowers on the table are always fresh and the food is so delicious always served with a smile. This is one of our favorite places and we dine in at at least once every two weeks. When we think of Thai food, this is our choice. read more

We wish we could give this lovely spot over 5 stars! Our server was incredibly kind, warm and so sweet! We ordered a Thai tea with almond milk, house fried rice, pineapple fried rice, crying tiger, pad see ew, tom yum soup, and mango sticky rice! Every single dish was so flavorful, delicious, and comforting!! We ordered 6 dishes and a drink for 3 people. Took home leftovers and our total was only ~$ 109 before tipping which was such a good deal considering how yummy and well portioned everything was! The food is truly INCREDIBLE. Such a gem of an experience dining here. We will be back to try their many other dishes!! Thank you Thai Fresh! read more

I have been coming here for two years since I moved to the area. As long as I live, they will always have at least one customer. I love their Massaman Curry. It gives me life. The restaurant is also so cute. Tucked away in a corner, it's quiet and quaint. I don't know what it's meant to be aesthetically, but it's super vibey. read more

2/5 experience today Service was a 5/5 and the woman in charge was very attentive Food was a 1/5. I ordered the eggplant garlic with tofu, and the whole thing came in a huge pool of oil. I could not taste any salt, garlic, or other flavor. I couldn't even finish the meal. I ended up feeling nauseous from all the oil and threw up later that night. It is small inside with about 4-5 tables. Definitely more known for take out. I won't be back. read more

This place has been around for years and never disappoints. I've been coming here since I was a teenager. It's a staple in the Westwood area. I always get their delicious Tom Kha coconut soup and all their noodle dishes are good as well. The service is always quick and friendly. If you haven't tried a Thai food in the area definitely stop by Thai Fresh Cafe. read more

In person review: Ambience cosy. Small, cute venue More people came as we left- seemed to be regulars Good service Menu has the usual stuff Food came out as prepared vs together- which was OK Spicy level medium was very medium:) Rice not included with stir frys. Prices OK Water was not refilled at the table rather taken back and filled. I dont necessarily want someone to keep touching my cup and I need a lot of water with my food. I'd probably come again or get take out. Did not use bathroom and unsure if there was one available *Some parking but it is shared so you may have to use the streets of Westwood. read more

Food was amazing! Everything I ordered was full of flavor, fresh and felt light. Most of the dishes were to share between 6 and everyone loved it. The price was great for the portions served. The highlights were the pork toro & the spicy beef salad. read more

I had the Pad-See-Ew (flat rice noodles stir-fried with egg in sweet soy sauce and Chinese broccoli), which was delicious. Their Thai iced tea is also refreshing. The service is friendly, and it appears family-owned. Prices are super reasonable. Although the restaurant is small, with only about 4-5 tables inside and a couple of tables outside, and the parking lot is tiny with limited spaces, it's worth the visit. The name "Fresh" is well represented by the food quality. Despite not living near Westwood, I'll be coming back again whenever I'm in the area. read more

I've been craving Thai food for awhile, so I really wanted to check this place out! My friend and I ordered the pad kee mao, yellow curry, and mango sticky rice. The pad kee mao was good but nothing special :oo the yellow curry was sweet and good, but I feel that they could've had more chicken or vegetables in it. Mango sticky rice was good!! Mangoes were ripe and rice was good amount of sweet. Good portions. The atmosphere is nice; slightly dark inside but it was nice to eat in. The service.. was not great. When my friend and I walked in and asked for a table of two, the waitress took awhile even though there were open tables and moved slowly as if she didn't want us to sit. She was a bit rude when I had a small question and rushed us towards the end even though there was no one waiting on us and it was not closing time yet. My friend and I always felt awkward when she was around. /: never smiled and felt like we weren't welcomed. Not sure if I'll come back because of that alone read more

An intimate restaurant with about 6 -8 tables. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The Pad Sew noodles were divine with the perfect balance of spice. Overall a great place when you want good food and a quiet place to chat with a friend read more

Good food and friendly staff. Dining area is small but comfortable. I've only had take out.

I always try to find new places to eat yellow curry chicken! But from here I'm sorry but never again!! It was seriously nothing special at all it almost had no flavor carrots were undercooked potatoes were undercooked oh and rice was overcooked and it was $17! I pay way less then that for the curry and rice at a hole in the wall place and it is SO much better! I could not even finish it and will not be finishing it. There also wasn't much broth I usually have a good amount of broth and even the mushy rice was able to soak up whatever broth I did have. And the Thai iced tea was not the best..like how do you even mess up Thai iced tea up!! I Literally want my money back!! Out total was $70 cause we did get beef fried rice for my daughter and we pay less than $50 at the other place for more food and better tasting! read more

I was not satisfied. Why can't I order a half-portion? The waitress told me that even if she brings me a half-portion, I still have to pay for the full one. Why? And why did she say it in such an unfriendly way, as if I were asking for something completely unreasonable? read more

Thai Fresh Cafe - If you remove all the inedible parts from the seafood soup, there's almost nothing left--just two shrimp and two octopus tentacles. - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming here for more than 20 years. I'm surprised I hadn't written a review until now! Shame on me. The restaurant is very unassuming. It's located in a tiny strip mall on Westwood Blvd. just north of Santa Monica Blvd. and just south of Sprouts and its giant parking lot. There is currently a noodle and boba place next door, but that has obv changed over the years. There are a handful of tables inside, and a few outside. The ones by the window are prettier, but they're all imminently serviceable. Everything on the menu is good. We love the egg rolls, and this is one of the few places where we actually use the sauce, too (it is excellent). Pad Thai is a long-time favorite. We usually order it with shrimp, but the chicken and tofu are also great options. (Other options are beef and duck, which are also good, but we rarely get this protein combination with the Pad Thai.) The pad see ew with beef is super - the flavors work so well with the beef, and the dish is very filling. The noodles are positively addictive. The spicy eggplant with tofu is an all-time favorite dish, as well. It pairs best with rice IMHO. Truly, you just can't go wrong. Prices are very reasonable, service is quick and friendly. I love this spot for a casual meal out and for very convenient takeout. read more

DELICIOUS!!!!! I read bad reviews but we had a Great Experience!! :) The delivery was supposed to be in by 9:10pm-9:20pm and they showed up at 8:55pm! I asked for it spicy (x3) so that its Hot (but not too hot) and it was PERFECT!! Sometimes Thai restaurants make it super spicy and sometimes its barely spicy, but Thai Fresh made it Just how my Wife and I Love it!! We will definitely be ordering here every trip we make passing by! Regarding the service, dropping off the order was smooth and the man was polite & friendly :) My Favorite was the Green Curry & my Wife Loved the Yellow Curry. Make sure to get the Spicy Noodles (Pad Kee Mao)!!! The curry comes with complimentary white rice. (It was so tasty that i kept eating and almost forgot to take pictures...) read more

I have not had lunch here in years even though this place has been here for as far as I can remember. Parking was always a bit challenging but in the era of covid it was a delivered takeout, so not an issue right now. The Plah salad with shrimp was tasty enough but, it was a very small salad, compared to other places and definitely not for a hearty eater like myself. I would have to get some other dish that is more substantial The BBQ pork ribs was hearty but lacking in greens. Ok, I have to stop playing Goldie Locks and get something just right the next time, that is, if the bears don't get to me first. read more

It's fine, if not groundbreaking or amazing. Thai Fresh Cafe is also very easy to miss - walking or driving by, you really gotta look for them. Having never been, it was high time to stop by. They actually have a couple outdoor tables, if you like. Mostly, though, they are all about the Take Out. (I'm sure they have the delivery groups, too,) OK. So. A late weekend lunch, and a weekday lunch special. I first tried the Pumpkin Curry (with chicken). Fairly mild flavor and plenty creamy, I wish I had asked for a bit of spice. The basil is perhaps the most prominent flavor that my mouth lingered over. The pumpkin (or squash) was a little mushy but it held my interest. The chicken was pretty standard, and made rounded out the dish. The accompanying white rice was frankly a bit disappointing. Not particularly fresh and bouncy, it definitely worked just fine but was a tad chewy. The Lunch Special that I tried included the Spicy Eggplant (with chicken). Certainly the proper chew-factor with the eggplant. I think I liked it more than the Pumpkin Curry, but again, not much spice. Maybe I just look like a non-spicy guy, I dunno. Must remember to ask. The smallish egg-roll that comes with is tasty, with a satisfying crunch and without the grease. The green salad was refreshing, though I might ask for less salad dressing. And again, the white jasmine rice that comes with the dish was the same - kind of limp and lackluster. I love how it's a family business, and owners seem nice and sincere. Another plus is that they are super quick. So, I'll definitely keep Thai Fresh in mind. read more

Decent Thai Food. Got take out Good flavors, spicy eggplant was good a tad oily but good taste. Would probably get medium next time because mild was a true mild. Mixed vegetables with chicken was also good, some charbroil flavor. Quick pick up. Service was fast. Would try again this time probably curry and noodles. read more

The first time I ordered here was takeout during COVID, and I remember thinking what a cute interior it had! Glad I was able to return and dine in properly for the ambience. No complaints about the Pad See Ew; they do add, I believe, white pepper on top, so in general, it's got a little bit of a unique take than on most conventional Pad See Ew dish taste profiles. read more

I have picked up takeout from this place several times and each time was very happy with the quality of the food. Good flavor, good portions, reasonable prices! I usually get pad woon sen with extra veggies, but last night I got the Guay Teow Ped roasted duck soup with wide rice noodles. It was delicious! My boyfriend got the pork belly with Chinese broccoli and he was also very happy with that. He's previously ordered curry from here and for whatever reason wasn't into it- but he loved the dish he got last night. Thai Fresh is tasty, the service is friendly and tbh it is probably the best Thai food I've had on the west side. read more

We went inside-- very muggy (seems like no A/C). The server was not very kind. Didn't say hi and looked at us weird when we asked for water.

There are only five (5!) tables in this tiny restaurant and some are for only two! We went on a Saturday of finals week and got the last table available -- I can't imagine that it's not crowded when UCLA is in session because the food is delish and very reasonably priced. The green curry had a complex, medium-hot spice blend with a bit of something "extra" that Thai green curry typically doesn't have -- nice! We also enjoyed the fried catfish (tasty sauce!) and the pad kee mow (although there was not much broccoli). It's a cute place inside overall, with a DIY, salvaged-materials vibe and a fish tank. The only reason I can't give a five-star review is that it smelled dank and musty in the corner seat inside at the window -- not so pleasant. The seats away from the window might be better, or we might get takeout next time. read more
