Authentic Thai food outside of Hollywood. So glad my mom took me here to eat a 2nd time. Last time I wasn't a fan of the sour soup my mom said was good here so I was hesitant to eat here again. Parking is easy inside a large shopping center parking lot. This time with the LA marathon causing traffic in Hollywood and I really wanted catfish in red chili sauce and papaya salad so my mom suggested Treasure Pot. Walking into the restaurant there were mostly Thai patrons so that made it seem more authentic. We ordered the catfish (bladook tod pad prik), mild papaya salad (som tum), and anchovy pork rice dish (pad kook kapi). The catfish was so good but beware of the bones. It was cooked with green peppercorns, lime kaffir leaves and bell peppers. The peppercorns have a good kick in the aftertaste. The som tum was very good, my mom was highly impressed with the flavor. She basically drank the rest of the liquid or poured it over rice. The anchovy rice dish was also very good. You mix the anchovy rice with the glazed pork, green apples, egg, and red onions. It has a sweeter taste bc of the pork and the anchovy isn't fishy at all. read more

So the office moved to Paramount back in January and I was SO AFRAID I wouldn't be able to find good Asian comfort food! I don't remember how I came across this place but I'm so glad I did. The office orders lunch here for us about once a week and sometimes I order takeout to bring home to my family after work! It's seriously THAT GOOD! Some of my favorite dishes here(I order everything EXTRA spicy and they never disappoint! But even if the chef is feeling a bit shit that day, they give you Thai chili's soaked in fish sauce. So it's all good!): - Pad Thai: Seriously. If a Thai restaurant doesn't make good Pad Thai, they need to just quit! The noodles here are nice and chewy and the flavor is yums! - Shrimp Fried Rice: I LOVE the shrimp here! It's so meaty and cooked perfectly every time! I hate those places that give you the cheap shrimp that feel water logged or overcooked and rubbery, YUCK! The fried rice here has so much flavor and the squeeze of lime at the end marries everything together into the happiest bite of fried rice your tongue will hold onto for the rest of it's dear life - Pad See Ew: I usually HATE pad see ew but I actually really like it here! Usually it just tastes like Hong Kong beef chow fun to me, and if I'm eating that I might as well go to a good Chinese restaurant for It! But their spice blend is so delish here, I've never had an issue with it tasting like beef chow fun! Now on to the really good stuff - Chicken Panang Curry (with $1 Thai Eggplant): OMG!!! I've never had Panang the way they make it here! It's so creamy, and curry-y, and umami-y. Seriously, just an orgasm in your mouth! Especially when you get it extra freaking spicy and then you just have all these flavors exploding all over your tastebuds and you just don't know what to do so you sit there spazzing all over the place with curry in your mouth hoping no one sees how weird you're being over a curry! You're seriously missing out if you don't try this here! -Spicy Fish Ball with Chili and Mint (with Thai Eggplant added): This dish is like some sort of yummy spicy fish cake stew. The fish cake tastes and feels homemade and the sauce is SO FREAKING INCREDIBLE with their sticky rice! This dish tastes like a Vietnamese dish my grandmama used to make for me growing up, so I get some serious feels eating this! And last but not least, you'll need to order their Thai Iced Tea to wash everything down with! They have an extra large cup for take out that's the same size as a large soup container! And trust me, you're gonna want one all to yourself! The tea here isn't overly sweet like all the other places and the cream will definitely help cool you down from all the heat! Thanks for reading read more

So, we ordered the Tom Yum Seafood Soup and it was tasty. We also ordered the Crying Tiger which was quiet tasty. Unfortunately, the Rice had to be ordered seperatley. We also ordered the Chicken Sweet and Sour which was heavily battered but okay overall. read more

All. I. Have. To. Say. Is. TRY THE panang! Oh my gosh Becky, if you don't know what panang is let me tell you... it's a creamy, soup type of dish that usually goes over white rice and tastes heavenly! It's made with coconut milk, lemongrass, chili paste (red or green- I like the red), garlic and basil. Sounds weird BUT I just recently discovered it and it's soooo dayum goood! If you like spicy, ethnic foods it's a must and you must try the panang here. I had shrimp added and so, so, so delicious. They didn't pay me to write this! All panang is not created equal! read more

Company lunch took us here all the way from Torrance to Downey for some home-made Thai food. It seems either they know the owner or they just missed home-cooked meals. The food here certainly felt very homey and I could even feel that while I was there, I was totally surrounded by Thai people who loves to come there for lunch as a group as well. I've tried their crispy pork with chinese broccoli, Kra pow, boat noodle, shrimp omelette, squid salad, bbq ribs, and fried shrimp roll. The best meal I ever ate there is the kra pow, it came with the fried egg if you want, it's optional. You can adjust the level of spiciness, just tell the server (I presumed it's the wife's owner). The boat noodle here is uber large, it's good for sharing. The crispy pork and chinese broccoli is also pretty good, I liked it. The squid salad was pretty refreshing, it was like a surprise order on our last trip there. As long as I stay working in this company, I would definitely always come back here with the whole crew for lunch once in a while and yes, most of the time, it's all company paid. read more

One of the most delicious Thai Restaurants I've been to. All I can say is you should defiantly get the Beef Salad. It is so good, and for your main dish. Try and get Mint Leaf Ground Pork over rice. Very tasteful and you should also add fish sauce with cut up chili to your every bite. The service here is good, they are on point. I've been coming to this place for several times already. I haven't been to this place in awhile and I've decided I should come by here since I was craving Thai food. This place never disappoints me everytime when it comes to eating and craving Thai food. Be sure to check this place out if you're ever in Long Beach / Paramount area. The place is a bit small, no wait time to be seated. They also have a private parking lot so you'll defiantly find a parking spot. But check them out! read more

Treasure Pot Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Paramount, California

The husband and I were able to discover this hidden gem thanks to Yelp! It all happened on a random day when we were in a Thai Boat noodle kind of mood. Yelped it, and this location came up. First time here got us hooked, we literally came back every single day for a week after that first visit to order the same thing and it was deeeee-li-cious each time!!! We were so hooked that we even made our many groups of friends come try it, we even brought back our mothers, sisters, and brothers. The flavor of the broth is indescribable, too good for words. First let me explain what Thai Boat noodles consists of since most people have never had it: - beef shank - flank steak - beef tendons - beef balls - pork rinds - green onions - cilantro - long stemmed veggie (I don't know the name for) Yes, yes, writing this review is making me crave this dish even more! Other items are good as well, but I definitely recommend Thai Boat noodles! read more

My last review until Easter (and yes, I'm giving up Yelp reviewing for Lent). It was my last night in So. Cal. and before my boyfriend took me to the airport, we grabbed some dinner. We Yelped nearby open restaurants and this place came up with a high rating so we decided to pay them a visit. We ordered the Tom Yung Soup (medium spiced) and Thai Beef Fried Rice. The food came out quick with a friendly service, and the food was pretty good. It was much better than the Thai food we had at the Food Festival. The soup was so spicy, our sinuses cleared and started sweating but it didn't stop us from eating. I'm not huge on spicy food, but I'll gladly endure heart burn for this soup. The fried rice was a little greasy but it was one of the best tasting fried rice I've had in a long time. Plus, it didn't have a lot of peas, carrots, etc. in which I call "fillers." It was rice, egg, meat and some veggies. We had leftovers of the rice so I was able to bring it up north and have it for dinner, which still tasted as good as it was in the restaurant. The 2 entrees we got cost less than $20 so it was a great value especially for dinner for 2. It was a nice way to end my trip and Valentine's Day with my boyfriend. Until Easter... read more

This was my partners favorite Lunch spot when she worked in the area. She introduced me to this place. The staff here are very friendly and food comes out quickly especially for a Thai restaurant. Prices are very reasonable and quality is fresh. My partner doesn't work in this area anymore so we don't come here often. But when we do they never disappoint. My partner is a very picky eater and she does a lot customization to her orders. They are always happy to substitute items with a smile! A must try!

I'm pissed that they even allowed that food to come out of their kitchen. Their crispy pork was precooked, sliced, deep fried, and left in the fridge for at least a week . It was so dead dry my dog found a hard time chewing it. We complained but , instead of fixing it, the server just said "oh it was?" and walked away. Very insulting! I'll never come back again. read more

Three words: thai boat noodles. The best ingredients create a magical flavor in that "super bowl". The desserts are also awesome. The roti is so good it will be a new taste in your tastebuds. I like their fried banana to go and top it off with haagen dazs vanilla ice cream at home. This place definitely puts cancoon thai in bellflower and sweetie thai in artesia in my rear view mirror. read more

If you dive into my reviews, you know I eat a lot of Thai food. I know Thai food and Thailand very well, so it hurts me to rank a Thai restaurant so poorly. This place just failed on every mark: filthy, bad customer service and poor food quality. It does get two stars just because Thai food is better than most cuisines and I would have to get very sick to give no stars but this place just disappointed across all levels. read more

The food is very authentic. The staff is very friendly. The prices are decent. Would definitely recommend eating at this restaurant.

Location: Okay, I'm not just saying this because I had recently found out that my friend's mom works here, but this place is totally awesome! I'm usually in the northside of Long Beach, where there is a lack of authentic and delicious Thai food (which is my favorite type of Asian food, by the way). The closest location to a good Thai spot is down in the Eastside of the beach called LB Thai, which is kind of inconvenient to me. Food: One day, I stumbled across this spot through Yelp. I saw that it was closer than LB Thai just up a few miles in Paramount. I decided to order Thai Boat Noodles and Kra Pow, but with ground beef instead of pork. And OMG, I would have to say that the Kra Pow has been the best I've tasted locally. It was so flavorful! The Thai Boat Noodles were also very delicious. They are very generous with portions, and both dishes could be shared amongst by two people. It made me want to try all of my other faves! Service: The service was excellent. The server kept checking up on us and made sure we were taken care of. She was sweet! Ambiance: It looked like a nice and clean typical Thai restaurant. Very authentic-looking! read more

3.5 stars. The place is kinda dirty and not clean. No restroom for customers. On to the food: The pad Thai was too rubbery but flavor was on point. Noodles need to soak in water longer before hitting the wok. Then that should fix it. The curry was good enough but maybe too pungent for most folks. I cook SEA foods so I liked it. The Thai boat noodle pass the taste test. This was the best thing I ordered. But even after saying that a good Thai boat noodle should have more of a sour and spice and salt after taste, where sweet is subtle. But this boat noodle seem to have more of a sweet after taste. But i still enjoyed it. I orders spicy but I still needed to add more dry chili flakes, jalopeno and chili paste to my bowl. I have a very very high tolerance to spicy. Most folks the regular spice is more than enough. read more

Amazing food I been coming to this restaurant for more then 20 years. This is quality food with authentic ingredients and food.

This is one of the most authentic Thai restaurant in town. My mom noted that she never fails to see a Thai customer when she dines here. And sure enough, there was a party of Thai customers next to us that night. We came in rather late but there was still other customers. It took awhile for the waitress to get to our water, but she came back consistently throughout the night to refill our water. We ordered: Tom Yum soup - served deliciously hot and spicy in a traditional pot Red curry - creamy and just the way we like it Papaya salad - just salty enough to have the tang that I like (how come restaurants never cut up the cabbage? It's like not I can chew that up in one bite @-@ ) Pla Dad deow (fish) - good but not memorable Pad ped moo par (pork stir fried with chili paste, thai eggplant, and rhizome) I don't know what to compare this with... I guess like the Taiwanese pork with eggplant but not really, ha ha... I've never had Thai eggplants before; they look like half-transparent, tiny watermelons. =P In general, the food here is spicy. We ordered medium spiciness for our food and we were all sweating at the end of the night. If you're used to Asian spicy food from Japan, China, Taiwan, etc, you're in for a surprise. But if you can take spiciness of Malaysian, Thai, and Korean cuisine, you'll definitely be able to enjoy yourself fully. You may wonder... where's the usual Thai restaurant stuff.. pad see ew, pad Thai, Thai BBQ Chicken...? Well, they have those too, but why come to an authentic Thai place to get dishes that you can get anywhere else? Be warned: Rice is charged per person ($1.50), so it can really add up if you have a large party. I heard the catfish with chili is really good too. Gotta try that next time! read more

Treasure Pot Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Paramount, California

The Treasure Pot is the best "hole in the wall" Thai restaurant in Paramount and makes the best Pad See-Ew and Roti in the region. Accepts: Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discovery Trillance's Quick Recommendations: Appetizer: Fried Wonton ($4.95) - absolutely beautifully shaped and deliciously stuffed with pork, for you to dip in sweet and sour sauce. Entrée: Pad See-Ew ($6.95)- loaded with crispy broccoli, these sticky flat noodles are the perfect mix of sweet and savory. Treasure Pot makes the best in the region. Dessert: You **MUST** get the Roti ($2.00) - this warm and gooey fried Thai crêpe filled with sweetened caramelized condensed milk... try not to orgasm and disturb the other patrons. I suspect Treasure Pot makes the best south of Los Angeles (*!*See note). Drink: The Thai Iced Tea ($1.75 small | $3.00 large) - is especially rich and milky... slightly sweeter than regional average. -------------------------------------- Trillance's Detailed Experience: Although the restaurant is a bit hidden in the plaza, you'll see it from afar due to its holiday icicle lights hanging down their front window. Although it has limited decoration and has a "hole in the wall" feel, it is very clean, the service is very fast, and the prices are great. There are two television screens, usually showing popular American television, just loud enough to hear, not loud enough to bother any conversations. They also keep a well stocked magazine and newspaper collection. The table includes the basic Thai condiments including hot peppers, chili flakes, etc. but does not include crushed peanuts. The place also displays a few goods to sell, such as Rice Patty deserts, Taro Chips and Dok Jok. I last went on Monday 03/21/2011, on my own, and ordered the following: Spring Rolls ($4.95, misbilled as $5.95) Fried Wonton ($4.95), Chicken Pad Thai ($7.95), Chicken Yellow Curry ($7.95), Beef Pad See-Ew ($6.95), small Thai Iced Tea ($1.75) and Roti ($2). My order ($37.50 with the dollar error, before taxes and tip) was enough to feed 4-6 people (the leftovers fed me for my next 4 meals, and I eat like the average American... that is, a bit more than I should). The service was incredible! As I entered the restaurant, the staff responded to my Thai greeting in Thai, and guided me through the ordering process with a fluent English. They were also willing to spend a few moments to teach me a few new words and expressions in Thai, all with warmth and patience. The best items are placed in the summary above. The Pad Thai, usually my benchmark for evaluating Thai restaurants was slightly better than average, in a slightly smaller portion that I'm used to, and would have earned The Treasure Pot a score of 4 stars... however, the Pad See-Ew and Roti being the best I had eaten in over two years, the restaurant was redeemed to its fifth star. (*!* Note: I consider the Roti at The Treasure Pot to be the best south of LA, although I have to admit I've only been to about 50 Thai restaurants south of LA... if I'm wrong, then the Roti is nonetheless 'to die for'). The Spring rolls were good, but were nothing beyond than what I would expect. The Yellow Curry was well presented with a coconut coulis, the dish was rich and the meat was fall-apart tender. Don't forget to order jasmine rice for it (they forgot to offer it to me, but got me some under a minute's time when I asked for it). When asked how spicy I wanted the Yellow Curry, I asked for "Very spicy!"... I estimate the plate being around 180 Scoville HU, and thus if you like things to sting, you may want to add a couple 'very's to your request. Look for my 5 pictures with the www.Trillance.com markings. read more

Ordered the Pad Thai Noodle with chicken and shrimp; the taste was somewhat bland and there was only one shrimp in it. The Thai Boat Noodle was delicious with a robust flavor; I like the added bite of a crunchy pork rind. This is a hole in the wall, an unkempt, and an ordinary joint; higher price menu than most. Cheers to good eats and to living life fully!!! read more

Honestly not sure how this place has the stars it does. I order from this place for the first time in hopes for some decent pad Thai and boy I was disappointed. I ordered 2 chicken pad thai's, 1 chicken noodle, wontons, golden shrimp, and steamed rice. The pad Thai and chicken noodle were extremely bland and extremely dry! Usually even with bad pad Thai you'd be okay but this just was very sad even for bad pad Thai. The wontons were probably the only decent thing and decent as in they were bearable compared to the rest. The golden shrimp did not look as pictured from previous yelpers. They were very skimpy and flavorless. Ohh and the steamed rice was also decent but I mean it's hard to mess up steamed rice when you're using a rice maker. Overall, bad!!! Avoid this place if you're looking for a fix to your Thai food craving. Look else where because this food is overly priced for overly bland food.Worst $46 ever spent!! read more

I only ever seem to do Thai for the Pad Thai - just my plate of choice I guess. Went here and tried it. Sad to say that I found myself trying to like it the entire time. It was just way too chewy. I've never had such a hard time eating Pad Thai such as this. The wife had to see me almost choke a couple of times lol. Her Pineapple Fried Rice was delish though! And huge portion! Service was courteous and prompt. Prices are great! Maybe I got the wrong plate here, but I think this will be our last time here for now. read more
