The Second Owl is drastically different than its predecessor. Located on 2nd St. it caters to a different crowd with a different palette. I had definite favorites when I dinner-ed here - both of which were starters. The sea bass larb ($21) was a refreshing way to start the meal. The Chilean sea bass is served ceviche style with fresh lime juice, fish sauce, cilantro, green + red onions with rice paper crisps. There wasn't anything groundbreaking about this dish, but it was a very solid ceviche. We also tried the kao tuna na tung ($13) which was a first for me. Ground pork, shrimp, and aromatic spices are simmered in coconut milk and paired with shrimp cracker wafers. It's surprisingly light, but flavorful. For proteins, we shared a sausage platter (a little dry), pork belly ($16), and the crying tiger ($28). The one misgiving I have is the fact that all 3 are served with the same sauces which ultimately keep them tasting pretty similar. I think The Second Owl is a great place to take out of town guests or if you're entertaining a nice dinner. The menu offers classic Thai dishes alongside less common offerings which keeps the menu exciting.
The best food on Second Street! The Second Owl is a must try when in the area. The ambiance makes it perfect for a family dinner, friend catch up, or a weekly date night outing. And the people make you feel like you're a guest in their home. Second Owl's menu has plenty of options and each one is worth trying! The food is aromatic, beautifully presented, and, most of all, tastes incredible. I appreciate that some of the menu options are seasonal as well so I feel like there's always something new to try even when I order my staple faves. This level of food and comfort is only possible at Second Owl. Must try's: Mango Sticky Rice, Pad See Ew, Green Curry, Kao Soi Filet Mignon, Tom Kha, Tom Yum, Owl Fried Rice, Kao Soi Duck. I am attempting to try everything on this menu!
First time at Second Owl here at Belmont. I've tried Owl Owl in the past in Signal Hill and liked it so was craving for good savory Thai food and decided to stop by Second Owl. I got drunken noodle with crispy pork and sea bass larb take-outs. The drunken noodle was very flavorful, love that wok fire flavor. The crispy pork earned its name and it was crisp to the tip! So crunch, I wish there were more of it. The sea bass larb was full of flavor, fresh, citrusy, paired very well with the shrimp chips. The service was great and it didn't take too long to wait for my food. They also have a restroom for customers only and it's around the corner of the restaurant. Highly recommend!
We had a great experience at The Second Owl! We were seated right away, and our waitress, Shanon, was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our meal. The food was delicious. We especially enjoyed the Pad See Ew and the Thai tea. Everything came out fresh and flavorful. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back!
Second owl is a hidden gem off of 2nd street. The hubby and I came here in a Saturday early evening for dinner. It wasn't to packed at the time which was nice. Shannon who took us to our seats, took our order and brought our drinks and food was one of the best servers I've had at a restaurant. She was very sweet and attentive. I ordered a butterfly tea( a very sweet and tart lemonade taste). And the hubby ordered a Thai lager beer. Both drinks were refreshing for a warm summer evening! Me and the hubby shared the pad Thai( mild) and crispy wings. The wings came with a sweet sauce and other different flavor sauce that was good as well. We also got hot sauce, pickled jalapenos, and a fish sauce in the side as well. Everything was very flavorful and filling. For dessert although I would have loved to try the mango sticky rice( it was out of season), I ended up getting the Thai tea Tiramisu. I was very happy with my choice! It was delicious!! Just like a Thai tea but in cake form lol. I will definitely be coming back here!!
If you've ever eaten at Owl Owl, you'll love the more upscale version on 2nd Street. We stopped by for lunch on a Monday and it was pretty dead. The service from the start was friendly. We were given a lunch menu in addition to the regular menu. The lunch menu just adds a soup or salad in addition to the entree. We shared the mild Pad Kee Mao with chicken and love the amount of veggies in this dish. Although we asked for mild, it definetely still had a kick of spice. The salad was fresh topped with a delicious dressing. The Butterfly tea is a must order. It's amazingly pretty and tastes so good. We sat outside and flies can be an issue, but there are mini fans on the table that somewhat helped. Metered parking is available. Overall, this spot still has the same great flavors as the original. The cost was just a bit high at $30 for 1 entree and a drink. Didn't quite feel like lunch special pricing.
The Second Owl seriously hit the spot. Here's the official breakdown of how I'm ranking the dishes we tried. Marry: The pork larb. No hesitation. This was the star. So fresh with lime and herbs, perfectly balanced heat, and the shrimp chips added that perfect crunch. The night before we watched Matty Matheson's Just a Dash and he made larb, which totally sparked my interest! This is the dish I would come back for again and again. F: The pork belly. Crispy on the outside, buttery tender on the inside. It did exactly what it was supposed to do and did it well. Rich, satisfying, and a little indulgent. Kill: The chicken satay. And I say that with respect because it was still good. That peanut sauce was creamy, savory, and slightly sweet in the best way. Unique from other peanut sauces for sure. But compared to the other two dishes, it just did not steal the spotlight. Someone had to go. Service was excellent and the presentation of each dish was beautiful. You can tell they really care about what they are putting out. The interior was nice and modern. Everything came out in a timely fashion and was great from start to finish. I will definitely be back for more larb and to work my way through the other menu items!
A Yelp Elite event brought me to this cool little boutique restaurant. It has a simple, industrial style decor, with a few large garage style doors that open up and make the space feel bigger and more open. The staff and service were good everyone was nice and friendly. We did not have a reservation and waited no more than five minutes to be seated (around 630p on a Saturday), but it quickly filled after we arrived. It seats only about 50 diners. Food, we ordered a fresh green salad, chicken wings and duck egg rolls fir appetizers, snd Owl Fried Rice, and crab with Thai chili and basil as shareable entrees. I had a beer with my meal, and my wife had the sangria. The kitchen flow/timing was a bit off. After our order was taken, we waited about 15 - 20 minutes before the first appetizer came out. As we worked through the appetizers, the Owl Fried Rice arrived. About halfway through the rice, I realized I never got my beer and had to ask for it (I think it was forgotten). We were nearly done with the rice and still hadn't received the crab dish, so I asked the waitress about it. She looked surprised and said she'd check on it. About 5-10 minutes later, the crab dish finally came out. My wife's second sangria was comped due to this error. Let's talk about the food: Green salad - Good and fresh. Did exactly what a salad should do. Wings - Excellent. Well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Three wings - portion was smaller than typical, as this was part of the Yelp comp. A normal app is 5 wings. Duck egg rolls - Great flavor, but the wrapper was a little thick and dense. Owl Fried Rice - Really good overall. The curry flavor comes through strong in a good way. My only issue was that there was just one shrimp in the whole dish. Maybe go lighter on the pineapple and add more shrimp. Crab with Thai chili and basil - Excellent. The flavors and preparation were on point. Despite the delays, this was still a pleasant experience. I'll definitely return and would recommend checking this place out. If the weather's nice, I suggest grabbing a patio seat (there are only nine).
Great Thai food! Great addition to Second Street/Belmont shore. We decided to try something new and happy we did! Second Owl is cute staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The pad Thai amazing, our appetizer egg rolls so yummy. Happy hour has great pricing - can't wait to go back for their sangria. They allow dogs on their sidewalk dining area - parking is typical of the Belmont shore area.
A rare find!! A unique Thai place in this very crowded Belmont shore neighborhood. Located on the corner. There is street parking all over. A bit loud, but animal friendly with their patio seating too Very large menu for such a small place. They have lunch specials and a happy hour menu too Real food made by real people. Everything was plated beautifully and packed a whole ton of flavor too
Dark moody interiors with super friendly staff. Small dining room but had no problem getting a table when we arrived, though it quickly got crowded. The prawn was delicious and so was the larb. Will come back and try more dishes.
Solid thai place on 2nd street. Some great dishes, some that were just so so but overall a great, somewhat affordable, Thai option around 2nd street. We came for lunch with a group of 5 and ordered the pork belly appetizer, larb, thai boat, pad thai, pad see ew, and thai crab. The pork belly was delicious. Not too fatty but just enough to give it that rich flavor. Nicely crisped without being greasy. There was a fish sauce-dipping sauce that went really well with it. A crowd favorite. The larb was tangy and refreshing. The seasonings overpowered the meat flavor a little and I thought it was strange they served it on shrimp chips versus lettuce. Not enough chips to larb ratio. The thai boat noodle was very flavorful. Almost had a worsteshire sauce flavor. The beef was pretty well cooked and was different but very good. Of the two noodle dishes, the pad thai was our least favorite. WAY too sweet. Maybe more Americanized? But overall did not like it and probably wouldn't order it again. The pad see ew was good, if not memorable. An easy to eat dish with well cooked noodles, but not a lot of veggies. The crab was by far the best dish. If you like thai basil dishes, this is your dish. The crab soaks in all the flavor of the thai basil. It has a little bit of heat and the veggies add a nice crunch. Definitely a must try. Really nice and attentive service in a modern decor restaurant. Will definitely come back again to try some other things and see what else is worthwhile.
I had wanted to try this restaurant for a while, and today my son treated me for Mother's Day for lunch. Our experience exceeded expectations. We were warmly greeted by our server, Ammara who was attentive throughout our meal. The space has a modern and warm vibe, and the food is incredible. For drinks, we ordered the Thai Tea and Thai coffee. The coffee was great. I would have liked the tea to be stronger, though it had great flavor. We began with the Baan Yaang appetizer. It has one skewer each of filet, chicken, and pork accompanied by 3 sauces and a garnish. The filet is marinated and was absolutely delicious on its own. The peanut sauce for the chicken was tasty. I preferred the sweeter sauce for the pork. It also came with a diced cucumber/red onion garnish, which I enjoyed on its own. For our main course, we chose Crab with Thai Chili and Basil along with Owl Fried Rice. Both were so satisfying. Although we were both pretty full, we finished our meal off with the Mango Sticky Rice. They put a special touch on it, decorating the plate with "Happy Mother's Day!" We will definitely be back.

My mom took me here for my birthday dinner this year and I don't think we could've picked a better spot to end the day! We've been long time fans of Owl Owl which is where we typically go to get takeout, so I was very excited to try the Second Owl to see if it was comparable to the original owl (spoiler alert!! it was). I forgot to take pictures but the building itself is very nice and not too loud, right on second street. There is no designated parking lot but plenty of meter parking on the street. Our waitress was very sweet but all of the staff were friendly! They were also very accommodating for my mom as she is vegan and gluten free. We ended up splitting a Tom Kha soup and Pad See Ew both with tofu. The food came out hot and fresh and everything was delicious. I love Tom Kha and theirs was on par with some of my other favorite places versions of the dish except theirs rings a bit more on the sour side (this is a good thing). Their Pad See Ew however is unique and in my opinion, one of my favorites as it has this almost smoky flavor that is just so crave-able. Portions are large we got super full! Our waitress must have overheard us talking about birthday because she brought out a complimentary ice cream which was so kind! Overall had a great experience and whenever we're looking to dine in for Thai food again I would definitely come back! read more

Food: 5/5, the pork belly is a must!! Very crispy and delicious. The garlic chicken was very tasteful and healthy. I love the pad Thai!!! Service: staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Ambiance: love the Thai decor as well as the open seating outside. They do have happy hour and lunch specials. I haven't tried them but will do!! Will definitely come back here again!! read more
This place is on second and Belmont Shores so if you know you know about the parking situation. The only reason why I give is place three stars because our server was super friendly, went above and beyond, always filing very tentative. However, the food here was to be honest very mid and bland. I ordered the papaya salad which came with pork rinds, but there was no flavor in this whatsoever. It was mostly all texture my friend with rice. I think she'd like it, but I wouldn't come back here again. read more

I've ordered from "The Second Owl" a couple times, but this was my first time dining in the space is small, but not cramped, and the mixed materials on the walls is cute and warm. Service was prompt, friendly, and very efficient. I ordered the lunch special, with the Tom Kha soup, and Pad See Ew with tofu. I also ordered the duck spring rolls to give them a try (I usually order veggie). The soup was piping hot, and had enough mushrooms, tomatoes, and cilantro to make for a good opener. The soup is light, sour in the best way, and creamy. The spring rolls were also ridiculously fresh, ULTRA crunchy, and served split, so I joked that they reminded me of bone marrow. They are hearty but not overpowering, and VERY STURDY. Not light and crisp, but crunchy enough to hold up to the meat, which is savory and has a good black pepper kick. Finally, their pad see ew is my favorite in Long Beach. Glossy, tangy noodles with a salty, savory mix of egg, greens, and perfectly soft tofu. I had to ask for some spice to add (I love spicy!) but that was my fault- I should've spoken up when I ordered. Overall - a great place for probably 1-6 in a group. How lucky I am to have The Second Owl so close to my home! read more
Finally tried The Second Owl last night. And I was NOT disappointed! The wait staff was very friendly and helpful with the menu and the food was delicious. Cool vibe, a great addition to the area. Fresh, tasty and authentic. You will end up paying more, but it's absolutely worth it. The care and time spent on the quality of their dishes is evident. I can't wait to go back and try other dishes. Pork Belly - Crispy edges, super moist and fatty. Chicken Wings - Crispy and well seasoned. Pad See Ew - Firm and Bouncy flat noodles. read more

Spotted this new restaurant on 2nd st and had to try it! We were seated by a very kind hostess right away on a busy weekend evening with outdoor seating and heaters. We ordered the chicken wings, pad thai, and mango sticky rice. The chicken wings were crispy, served with sides of a tangy sauce and spicy chili honey sauce. The pad Thai was quite spicy, but the mango sticky rice helped to soothe the heat. Overall, it's a great dinner spot that's nice for some thai flavors. read more

Attended my first Yelp Elite event and it was a lot of fun. The service was friendly, helpful and excellent even though it seemed only one front person was taking care of everyone. It wasn't packed but very pleasant. We ordered the chicken wings as our complementary appetizer and it was terrific! Big meaty drummettes with two sauces, one was a sticky sweet tart sauce and the second was an acidic chili sauce topped with roasted ground rice. The magic happened when we drizzled the crispy wings with both, just perfect! We also ordered Nam Khao Tod, a crispy rice salad which was the best we've tasted, crab with chili and basil, flavorful and aromatic, and pad seew beef as an old reliable standby. Would definitely return again when in the area. read more

been wanting to try this place for a while and finally came for happy hour! they had such great options to choose from at a great price, too! for the table, I ordered calamari, egg rolls, chicken wings and on the regular menu I got the pad se ew. everything was so good and enough to share! the ambiance is so inviting, especially at night when the lights are dimmed and if you want to enjoy the weather outside they have a patio to enjoy. if your in the area, be sure to check this place out! read more
I'm so glad we decided to check this restaurant out. I highly recommend. Everything I tried was amazing and full of flavor. We started with the pork belly 10/10. Perfectly lightly fried with delicious sauces. I ordered the Ka Prow 10/10. This dish is packed with flavor. I ordered mine medium. That minced meat was so delicious and tasty. I would definitely come back and order this again. I also really enjoyed trying their Pad Seew. I'm definitely ordering this one for myself next time. Most common thing ordered at any Thai restaurant, Pad Thai was also great tasting. Very small space. Not a ton of seating. You'll definitely have a wait on Fridays. We waited about 15mins and it was damn worth it. I'd wait an hour. Fairly new restaurant. Service was great. I'll definitely be back. read more

Dark vibey interior with small lamps on the table. Perfect for a date night. The Short Rib Massaman is easily the best thing on the menu. It was literally melt-in-your-mouth tender and the curry was so rich. The Baan Yaang was also solid, it's really all about those sauces though, so don't be shy with them. We also grabbed the Tom Kha which was super coconutty and hit the spot. Only real letdown was the Tom Kha Creme Brulee. I'm all for a creative dessert, but this one just tasted... off. The flavors didn't really mesh for me. I'd say stick to the savory stuff and skip this one. I would like to try the mango sticky rice next time. Overall, service was great, always refilling water and checking in on you. I'll definitely be back for that Massaman alone. read more

The restaurant is cute. The lady who worked at the counter made suggestions, which I really appreciated because the menu is large. The French fries were really delicious. The Clobster roll was small, but tasty. The Calitruffle roll was good. I enjoyed the lobster grilled cheese and tomato soup. My family agreed that all of the rolls and sandwich needed more seasoning. The French fries were seasoned much better than the rolls. Nevertheless, we all recommend this restaurant. read more

Only tried a few things, but the duck eggrolls were really good and my pad see ew was very good also. Our server, Aumila (probably butchered that), was very kind and fun. A very calm and quiet environment with a good playlist and nice patio seats with wide-open window/doors. Pretty good for what I tried**. read more

How much are the lunch specials? Why are there no prices on the menus? Except upgrades.
The prices are on the left of the items, but I can see how you mistook them for their list numbers. The prices are looking pretty high.
