Amazing food and great service. Super authentic. The staff was friendly and recommended a good job, dishes. We eat Thai food a lot and that was top animal safe. Worth the money! We have fried larvae, roasted duck red curry and yam nam tord. We're coming back! View all feedback.
What G L doesn't like about Lacha Somtum:
I can’t believe they would use canned pineapples instead of fresh ones!!! The artificial overly sweet and sour taste of a canned pineapple was like getting punched in the face while the flavor of the basil, curry leaf, everything else in the dish is going in the completely opposite direction. There’s also an unbelievable amount of it compared to all other ingredients, making the entire thing quite unbearable. I would... View all feedback.
The food has a really good flavor. The spicy level was spot on. The only thing is I could see the floors are a bit dirty degreaser would help) and the bathroom could definitely be cleaned properly… since it’s a restaurant. The bathroom soap was almost water. :
I moved to LA 4 years ago and have tried 15+ Thai restaurants, and up to this point hadn't found a single one that I thought was actually impressive. Until I found this place! The vegetable green curry was so incredibly delicious. Can't wait to order again next week. Mild was still (delightfully) on the spicier side, so just keep that in mind.
What a hidden gem and pleasant surprise. The name som tum kinda scared me away since i am not a huge fan of it. But by chance parking was an issue at Sapp down the street (surprise right? and we decided to try this place . Whao, so glad we did. We had the Lacha noodle in soup, the noodle (yellow egg was the best I ever had in LA, from Thai to Chinese restaurant, it's the perfect Al dente soft yet still chewy. The prawn was also really fresh (in restaurant with slower traffic , I pretty much ingredient won't be the freshest, but it is . We also have the pad Thai crab omelette, the pad Thai was just right not too sweet. Also have the fried banana (which is great with ice cream . Overall, I hope this place survives, foot traffic seems pretty slow , parking is not the best , just as most of Thai town. Definitely coming down
