Extremely rude. My dad had ordered glass noodles a while back and I wanted to try them again.. all I told the cashier was that I wanted glass noodles and he came out with a piping hot bag. I said I thought they were cold and after that his whole attitude got worse and worse. I left the untouched food there and they wouldn't switch it to the "glass noodle salad" so rude 0/10. Definitely disputing that transaction I left with no food. read more

If I could put a negative review, I would. They are rude and racist. The food is really not tasting like Thai. To be in South Bay, Thai food have to be excellent. The food is bland and poorly executed. The place is not clean and the staff as a group is rude. I've been to other Thai restaurants that are much more affordable, more authentic and way friendlier. read more

I've been going to this location for years. Food is always good, and I appreciate their customer service.

i had it with this place. today is 06-15-22. very dispointed with the food and service. this place used to be good at least the food was. anyway. stay away if u hard workig for ur money. read more

I had the misfortune of eating at this establishment about two or three weeks ago. Wwe ordered shrimp thai fried rice & pad thai. The rice had a pinkish color to it, bland as all hell and the shrimp was lukewarm. The pad was just ok. I will never come back & eat here again. The healrh department needs to do a surprise check asap. read more

They have went very downhill since before COVID. The customer service is horrible and the food is not good anymore. But the prices continue to rise as the quality continues to decline. They used to give you a lot of rice and meat and now it looks like someone ate a quarter of the rice in your plate before you even sit down to eat. The Sate chicken dinner sometimes has half cooked chicken sticks with burnt outsides. I used to love this place, been coming for 10+ years, even celebrated birthdays and graduations there. Maybe one day they'll be better but I will not be returning anytime soon. read more

First off let's start with the intimate bathroom experience you have in the men's bathroom. There's a chunk out of the wall that lets you observe anyone standing at the stall. Secondly the food was gross. It was bland, looked old and stale however it was warm... I was recommended to try the S-8... the beef was spongey and oddly pink. Even the water tasted funny. Lastly the location is run down. Was not thrilled at all. I should have listened to the ratings. Lesson learned. read more

This is my favorite Thai restaurant. I ordered lunch special Pad Thai noodles and it was delicious and flavorful! read more

Thai Original BBQ Carson - Thai Near Me - Carson, California

This used to be my favorite Thai BBQ place. I have not been there for the past few months, however, yesterday, while on my way home from work I thought to call in an order for pick up. I ordered my family's usual favorites, S1 and S2. I was so surprised that the Chicken BBQ was not as good as it used to be. It lacked flavors that it was known for. The Pork ribs BBQ was my husband's favorite, but it is also not as good anymore. Few years back, when you order for delivery or pick up, they do come with salad and salad dressing. But they stopped that. And I was fine with it because it was probably for the purpose of cost-cutting. But I hope they go back to making their foods flavorful again. I don't think I want to go back there anymore. It was just not good food anymore. Sorry, I am cutting off ties with you after 15 years. read more

Have you ever had that feeling of pure relaxation when you pull your blanket/down comforter over you after a long hard day? That's exactly what it feels like eating at Thai Orginial BBQ. It's like cuddling in a delicious blanket of Pad Thai, BBQ Chicken, Spare Ribs, and Sa-te. This isn't your Michelin rated type of food, but rather the "go to" comfort food ready to pick up after work. The Sa-te is consistently savory at this location. Ask for an extra peanut sauce and you just upgraded that blanket to Egyptian down. As for the Pad Thai, there's a little bit of concern in that it usually tastes as if it were mass produced at the beginning of the day. This is definitely not one of the best Pad Thais you will ever taste. The S-1 or Chicken plate is also consistently BBQ'ed to a moist yet crispy texture. This is probably the most ordered meal for Thai BBQ and does not fail to satisfy. All in all, Thai BBQ Carson can definitely satisfy your hunger, but don't expect to be impressed by Michelin star quality. Also, don't forget the Peanut Sauce...it can be used to eat anything... read more

Thai Original BBQ in Carson CA. Is probably one of the worst customer service I have ever had and experienced. This place is dirty and smells like a fish market. The bathroom is filthy and probably cleaned once a week. Probably needs an inspector to stop by and check. The food is disgusting, my niece order Thai tea and was given the old batch. This place does not deserve to be in business, and the customers does not deserve to be treated like crap. Good riddance. read more

The customer service of this place is not good. The lady that was helping me did not me allow to sit in a dining chair while I waited for my food. And when I received my food it had no napkins or fork. I went back and asked and something along the lines that they were not allowed to give eating utensils. How does a restaurant not give you a fork? Very disappointed. Food was not the best either. read more

Where do i begin, A few years ago this was the place to be. Went on a date? this place is awesome, it's your birthday? This is it. But how the mighty has fallen. This place is dirty, chairs had holes in them, everything is falling apart. We also could not find the health grade which im sure is illegal. The service is lackluster as well. The waitress almost seemed frustrated she had to explain what mammusan? or paanam was. The food also seemed bland I don't know if they switched chefs but the food is different. This place needs chef Ramsay ASAP. I did not even dare go to the bathroom fearing what I'll see in there. In conclusion If the owners are reading this you might want to re launch this place or just shut it down. read more

This has to be the worst Thai food that I have ever eaten. Not only does my stomach hurt just siting here writing this review, I feel as though I'm about to regurgitate. TMI? Oh well. The waitress was nice, but we only seen her once- when we ordered our drinks. So for me to say she was bad wouldn't be fair, but I can't say she was good. Someone else took our food order.We ordered S-1 ( bbq chicken), S-8 ( beef sate), Combination Soup, and Thai Iced Tea. The S1 and S8 included rice with shrimp. The combination soup was VERY bland. No flavor at all. I'm not sure about you but I like a little flavor in all aspects of life, especially in my food. The S-8 was burned and very gross. I thought if I masked it with the peanut sauce it would be tolerable. This was NOT the case. I only ate one piece. The rice and shrimp took about 3/4 of the plate. S-1 was better than the S-8, but Not what I expected, nothing spectacular or even memorable. The rice, oh the rice. How can one have such a bad experience with rice? Well in my case it was. It tasted as though there was too much fish oil in it. If I had taken a few pieces of shrimp out and placed it in a napkin to wipe it clean I might have eaten the shrimp. So has the bill came, I noticed it was about $72.00 for five of us. Sh*t, I thought. I'm taking it home. Maybe my dog will eat it. Hey a gal can hope,can't she? PROS: *good sauce CONS: * didn't you read my review? I could mention a number of things. Overall : I think I might need a break from Thai food after experiencing this. Well...who am I kidding? I could never take a break I love Thai food. I just won't come back here. read more

My friend just came back from Thailand and was raving about all their food, so the next day a few of my friends want Thai food. I wasn't impressed. The Pad Thai was OK. The fried rice I took a few bites and didn't want anymore. Meat was well seasoned. The service and the people that work here are what really bring this place down. The ladies working the counter rolled their eyes at us because we wanted extra sauce and decided later we wanted sodas. Then they don't bring out all the sodas and the different sauces we requested. Several times we needed something and the waiters just walked right by us. Definitely didn't think it was worth the price. read more

Disappointed, I love their Angel wings combo plates (they keep raising the price) ... but when they required my husband who was wearing a mask, for proof of vaccination/card (he is vaccinated) to order food to go! It's down right crazy. Boycott! We will go somewhere else! Bye bye Angel Wings! read more

Terrible. The crispy duck and garlic ribs were deep fried until they were dark brown to almost char. Inedible. The Panang curry beef was watery and the beef was tough. The angel wings were pretty good but I won't be returning because the fact they served us plates of char goes to show that this place really doesn't give a F. I'm not gonna take another chance. The interior of the restaurant is pretty run down and looks like something out of the nineties. A scout ant came to our table to forage for food while we were dining. I hope they find some bits of the char I spat out to take back to the queen tonight. read more

Been going here for years but recently had it again from a 2-3 yr gap. But hey, just opened up a Yelp acct. Through the years I've learned to appreciate good thai food. I've always compared every thai spot to THIS ONE. What stands out the most is the popular S1 (half ckn w/ rice). THERE IS NO OTHER THAI RESTAURANT THAT CAN COMPARE TO THE CHICKEN HERE! They've mastered it. It's always fresh, has flavor, and never dried out. It comes w/ a special sauce which you MUST poor on the chicken and rice. Obviously I can't really explain it... you just have to try it for yourself. Every other place may have good noodles, rice, but for some reason the chicken has no love. Was here for the Father's Day that just passed, and enjoyed my S1. Drunken noodles were on point too. Would've given 5 stars but waited over 10 minutes to get a glass of water. Although I don't remember service being so slow years before, I figured it was Father's Day and perhaps short-handed or just really busy. Will be visiting again soon. read more

I fell in-love with this chain restaurant but this particular place I felt like the rice served was cooked a few days before and served. I wouldn't come back to this restaurant location. Glendale and Cerritos was better. I was just closer to the location and gave it chance and no Bueno. read more

The service was a bit disappointing. There were ants crawling around our booth. Sad to say that this Thai BBQ has FALLEN OFF... The S-1 was okay but I am used to the chicken having that nice glazed and crunchy outside. The chicken I received on my plate looked like the cooks threw it on the grill and grabbed it off in 15 seconds. Horrid!! Won't be coming here again. The Pad Thai was absolutely delicious...I want some right now but I will be driving to another Thai BBQ that actually want people to come in and sit down to eat. I enjoyed the Thai Iced Tea but I have an issue with the portion and the price...I forgot to ask for it in a to go cup to get a little more. Everyone in my group were underwhelemed because we used to come here for family dinners and to celebrate. Now everything in there is lackluster...Turn the train back on!!! I have been coming here for well over ten years but now it just seems like time for them to close down remodel and get new life in the place. read more

I've been coming here for many years and every visit would be very satisfying , it was our family go to Thai place. Today I came with my family and it was great seafood soup and noodles but the dishes had a bad smell and I ordered a Coke and it was filled with most gas than actual Coke which of I told the waiter and she said they were out. My grandma ordered a green tea and all she would smell would be the filth in the cup. The service was amazing when a Thai guy would work here now all these women give shitty service , foods amazing but filthy plates and no restocked beverages , time to change restaurants this is no longer my favorite. Honestly just scroll for a better restaurant. read more

Thai Original BBQ Carson - Tofu veggie pad thai - Thai Near Me - Carson, California

See all

The service here really blows hard! 3 wait staff on a Saturday evening spent more time in the kitchen than with the guests. Had to call the waitress several times to place an order and get to go boxes because the Tom Yum was more like tom Yuck read more

This place is alright. It's conveniently located off of Carson and Avalon which are two big main streets, so it's good for the locals. If you decide to eat in the restaurant, it's not all that. For some reason, the food tastes better when you order it to go. But, then again it's still not THE BOMB. They're not really that friendly, either. Meh, save your money and go to Ya Yaa Thai or Three Spice Thai which are both in Gardena if you want some reaaally good Thai Food. peaceee. read more

Came here tonight and there is only one girl to take care of phone orders, to go orders, as well as 7 tables (including 1 party of 40 people) Needless to say the service was nonexistent. Poor girl read more

Is this place seriously calling themselves Thai Original BBQ???? This has to be one of the worst Original Thai BBQ chains in LA. The restaurant decor is very dull, dirty carpet, dirty walls and the quality of the food was disgusting, cold, salty and not worth the higher price being charged. The waiter was also really creepy....he literally just stood there, stared at us by our table until we were ready to order. I'm beginning to think the shrimp fried rice was salty for other reasons. Never stepping foot into this place again. read more

Best Thai BBQ hands down! I enjoy coming here a lot(maybe a little too much). My favorite to order is their Vegetable Phad Thai(with tofu) and fried tofu! *Vegetarian* The portion of food they give is a lot. And the service is good! read more

I order the SAME thing every single time I eat here: Thai Chicken Soup, Chicken Curry, and Thai Chicken Salad. I took 1.5 stars away because on more than 5 occasions I've had RUDE customer service (but I keep coming back because they have the best coconut soup). Other times, service was just OK. You need to ask for your water to be refilled. The other .5 star came from the fact that they cannot give me all dark meat for my Chicken Curry. read more

Great overall! Food is great but not overly daring. They don't over do the seasoning and keep the recipes simple and basically keep the essence of the Thai food. If you want the dishes spicy, then you might need to ask for it really spicy. THey don't give you the regular heat if you don't ask for it. This restaurant is probably the best Chain Thai food restaurant around. Possible the biggest in this area. Also in West Covina on Amar Rd and Chino Hills On Peyton Ave. If you are a beginner to THai Food definitely try the Phad Thai, Larb, BBQ Chicken or Ribs for starter and wash it down with a Thai Iced Tea for a sweet drink. Also another thing about the food here is that like the rice they have here - not too strong and very reaasonable in flavoring. Definitely a must try. read more

I tried spicy beef lunch special, I would said It was worst Thai food restaurant I had ever ate so far. The rice doesn't taste good and beef very oily no Taste. Even salad was not good ..... U can save ur $ try at other restaurant read more

this place is dirty as hell and rude. very uncomfortable tried to force me to tip thats very very unprofessional

Ordered the Garlic Chicken to go, when I opened it up at home for dinner it was drowning in cooking oil! Literally! I will never come back to this place again. One star review is not even worth this place but I can't post the review without tapping on the stars. read more

Thai Original BBQ Carson - My God! Do not order the Garlic Chicken, it is drowning in cooking oil! I will never go back to this place.. - Thai Near Me - Carson, California

When we're up for venturing out to Carson, we go here for Thai food. I usually get the Pad Thai, which is pretty good. I've had the shrimp salad here, and although I don't care for the lettuce (iceberg lettuce), I really like the shrimp and the peanut dressing it comes with. I tried a piece of the dearest crab. It was delicious! They blend crab, shrimp, chicken, pork together, bake it, and then bread and fry it. It reminds me of some Vietnamese dishes where you just puree/blend a bunch of different meats together and then bake it. My boyfriend is a fan of ther bbq pork ribs. read more

Not worth spending your money there. Food was not good. Service was ok. I tried the Ruby chicken diner and the hen was battered too much. Didn't have that much of a good flavor either. read more

We tried their veggie fried rice and it was really good. However, everything else was horrible. Their crispy duck was dry and bland. I would never go back to this place. Even their regular ice tea was horrible (how do you mess that up?) They didn't have many options either. Very disappointing! read more

Food is delicious gets 5 star Keeps me coming back for sure Food comes out ASAP when you order, kinda scare me in the beginning but is always freshly made customer service is ok Although their restaurant needs an upgrade they need to get rid of their carpet I don't believe any restaurant should have carpeting not sanitary in my opinion read more

I came here on a Saturday for lunch with some family. I ordered the S6 which is two Wing of Angels, sweet and sour sauce with veggies, and shrimp fried rice. Now let me tell you this, I've only been here one other time and that was about 15ish years ago, but I remember it being a lot better back then than it is now. The wing of angel isn't anything special. It's a dry meatloaf that's been deep fried. Bland. The sweet and sour sauce actually gave it a little flavor. Not going to lie, I was a little scared trying to figure out what kind of meats were in that wing of angel... Anyway, the shrimp fried rice was also bland, and came with only two big pieces of shrimp. Who calls it a shrimp fried rice with only two pieces of shrimp? Come on, guys, give me at least five pieces. Honestly wouldn't go back. I'm giving it two stars because at least the service wasn't bad. read more

Thai Original BBQ Carson - S6 - Wing of Angel (2) with sweet and sour sauce and shrimp fried rice. ...more like two pieces of shrimp fried rice. - Thai Near Me - Carson, California

I have never been disappointed by this place's food. I always get their Pad See Ew, and it's always good. Last time I was here, I ordered the Pad see ew and my boyfriend got the beef satay with rice. Omg. The beef satay was amazing! It was tender and the sauce!! The sauce!!! I couldn't get over it. I wanted to just drink it! Idk what it is but it tasted like a peanut sauce to me. Whatever it was, I want it again. Their Thai Tea was also pretty good. Definitely will always come back, but I think this one has competition which is Thai Cuisine in Wilmington And Carson St. read more

Extremely disappointed with the quality of the food tonight. I've been a customer of the original Thai BBQ for over 20 years and the quality and flavors have always been consistent. I used to frequent the LA locations on 3rd street and western when I lived in k-town. I now live in the South Bay and have been to this location several times. However, tonight the S-1 (BBQ chicken dinner) and chicken pad see ew were completely off. Pad see ew was clumpy, it seem burned/dark and lacked the sweet/savory flavor. Chicken dinner portion was skimpy and also lacked the usual flavor. I order the beef salad for the first time and could not bring myself to finishing it. Completely lacked the usual tangy flavor that other spots usually have. Strike one! I'll give this spot another try in a couple of months. Lastly, dear management: please hide your pesticides away from customers. I saw a spray can for bed bugs in the storage area between the women's and men's restrooms. read more

It's been a while since I've eaten here but throughout my experiences were pretty great. Therefore, I'll keep it at 3 stars. Decided to try delivery and ordered the Gulf Siam (entered SPICE level to 5) cause I was feeling spicy seafood today and along with Tom Yum Soup and received this (picture below) for a $12 soup you'd expect to get what you pay for. I got gypped when I opened and seen it was wasn't filled to the top. Let alone the base of the soup was thick and sweet. No spice what so ever. The Tom Yum looked spicier. If it came down to delivery options again. I most likely will not go for it again. Maybe I'll stick to dining in. read more
