Came with my friend. Great ambiance and food! I would definitely come back to try other menus!
I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for an amazing dining experience. The service was friendly, attentive, and fast, making me feel truly welcomed. Now, the food--absolutely incredible!
I love sticky rice, a friend was visiting and we went for a walk to consider other options for dinner but in the end sticky rice could not be denied. Nothing else would satisfy, we arrived famished, parched, and the ingratiating hostess welcomed us with open arms. Delicious as always.
Such cool vibes here, reminds me of when I was in Thailand! The place is a mix of traditional and fusion Thai flavors. It was packed inside during a weekend night, so we were seated outside. The dishes were all very flavorful and fresh! I would say the highlight of the meal was the roti and green curry , which were very different than what I usually order, it was flaky and warm! Typically asking for mild spicy from papaya salad comes out extremely spicy at Thai restaurants but at this restaurant, it's actually mild. Fried chicken were juicy and piping hot. We also ordered the comforting Khao Soi, which was more of a flavorful thick soup with noodles. The alcoholic cocktails were unique and Thai-inspired, but a bit tad sweet. Overall I recommend any of the food and drinks there, you can't go wrong on any of them!
First time trying this place and everything tasted amazing! We came on a Saturday for a late dinner and there were plenty of seats. We also got lucky with street parking nearby but during rush hour it may be more difficult to find parking. Next door, they have a bar with live music and it was packed. We sat on the restaurant side and a server came by to take our drink and food order right away. What we ordered: papaya salad - very delicious and not too sweet. I only wish the shreds were thinner but flavor wise was perfect. Mild was not spicy at all roti and green curry - cooked very unique. Roti was very flaky and buttery. Definitely a must try! crying tiger - the juiciest and softest steak and also comes with a side of papaya salad. Probably one of my favorites of everything we ordered Fried Chicken wings - the absolute best fried chicken. It was juicy and perfectly fried. If you love fried chicken, it's a must order Kao soi - they fill it to the brim! Very filling and well worth Everything here was so unique and different from other Thai places I've tried. Highly recommend trying this spot out and will definitely be back to try their other menu items, as well as check out their bar next door!
Do NOT! underestimate how spicy they can make their dishes here lmfao. If you like your noodles spicy, you'll love Sticky Rice The menu is small but full of promising dishes. Between my friend and I, we had the drunken noodles, veggie egg rolls and some other noodles that I can't remember (sorry). So I primarily got the drunken noodles and asked for them spicy. I enjoy spicy foods and eat it regularly, but Sticky Rice was VERY generous with the heat and it made it too difficult to finish my dish LOL. I drank like two full cups of water to ease my tastebuds and had to tap out. The noodles were great, though!! Veggie rolls were good and full of mushroom. It paired well with the sweet/sour sauce it comes with The waiters here are nice. They're not super in your face but do check in every so often to see if you need anything
After a hike at Echo Park, my amiga took me here for dinner. Small, chill vibe Thai restaurant. We were seated quickly - indoor style makes me feel as if I'm back in Asia but less humid (: There's a small bar (Spirit House) separated by a curtain from the dining area. Food is amazing - the spices and flavors are all there. The plate servings are generous and perfect to share. We had the Thai Fried Rice, Boat Noodles ... spicy!, Fresh Shrimp Rolls to share for a party of (2) and we were full! with enough to pack home. There's a nice outdoor seating as well. Excited to come back to try out their curry dishes! and try one of the cocktails from Spirit House (:
