    Went there for Sunday dinner. They have parking on the side. Food didn't take more than 10 minutes. Service was okay food was great. Price is reasonable definitely will be back.

    Yellow Curry chicken

    Such a great neighborhood Thai spot! Moved to the South Bay about a year ago and it was the first place someone recommended. This Sunday evening was the busiest we've seen the restaurant, and yet our food was absolute PERFECTION. Ordered takeout over the phone, we were told 25-30 minutes, and it was hot and ready at exactly 25 minutes. Super fast and friendly service. The portion sizes are great. My boyfriend and I usually get away with one noodle dish, one curry, and a side of white rice but we wanted an extra noodle for leftovers the next day. Chicken is our favorite, they don't skimp on the protein here. Also the beef was so thin and tender, not chewy at all. The yellow curry is really nicely spiced- I wouldn't say it's spicy but I do have a high spice tolerance.

    Mango sticky rice

    I loved the food here! Very delicious and the service was very kind when we asked for extra things to be added to our dishes. The portions of the pad thai and pad see ew are pretty generous and good for sharing with around 2-3 people. Highly recommend!

    Yellow curry fries

    I had the cashew nut chicken and the curry fries. Cashew nut chicken was savory and had a little heat. The chicken in the dish was perfectly cooked and the peppers and onions were the best compliment. The curry fries, the curry fries. Me amo. I get the yellow curry and it has a little heat to it. The fries are crinkle cut and cooked to perfection. I love crinkle cut fries. I got the lunch special and the portions were large and the value for the dollar is great. Also service is quick and my water cup is always refilled.

    Cashew Nut

    This place has always been a great experience with Thai food as well as with the service.

    Receipt

    It's usually pretty good food here. So today I ordered beef and broccoli with long straight hair. I call them to make another then take all the way back. Only for the next one tasted different from the first one . Woke up to itchy eyes thanks for that too!

    Went here for Lunch with some co workers. We ordered from the lunch menu. I ordered the spicy eggplant dish. Received it and it was fresh and delicious! Our party had about 15 people and it took about 24 minutes for everyone to receive their meals. I do recommend this place. I give this place 2 stars only because the waitress that was taking our orders was a bit rude and aggressive when handing out our plates. Other then that, it was delicous!

    Pad Thai with chicken as simple as that...

    Apparently this restaurant is now known as Jeep Thai Eatery. I hadn't dined here for a while and…read moredecided to stop in for a quick dinner. When we arrived it was apparent the "chef@ was also the hostess. As a result we waited quite a while to be greeted and seated. I should note that the chef did arrive about thirty minutes later. I ordered the Waan Om Khom Kluean yellow chicken curry and my guest had the deeb Sao Thai Pad Thai with shrimp. I also ordered a Thai ice tea and the server forgot to bring it. I had to remind her after my meal was almost finished. To me the chicken curry had a terrible unappetizing presentation. It looked like shredded chicken and big lumps of potatoes. In fast that's what it was. While the taste was pretty good, the over abundance of potatoes felt like a filler for less chicken. It was a decent dish but far from one of my favorites. The Pad Thai looked a lot better. My guest said it was good, not great, and that he'd order it again. Now to the price. Nearly $70 including the two dishes, one Thai ice tea and rice. This was not fine dining. I realize they have bills to pay but it was much more than I've paid at other Thai restaurants for similar meals. All parking is on the street. One need a bit of courage to park on PCH as passing cars make it scary to open the driver's door. Cars were flying by in the 40's and 50's and it's a very unsafe parking location.

    While the somewhat smaller portion of BBQ chicken was shockingly juicy and tasty, the other dishes…read moreleft much to be desired. Our larb salad was painfully salty to the point where it couldn't be enjoyed on its own and the kang kio wan curry was somehow watery and bland. Both the pork and beef were overcooked and tough. Unfortunately that the meal turned out to be such a flop, the chicken was the only thing that saved this from being a single star.

When you dine in they bring metal cups with an icy cold carafe of cold water to your table. Customer service is efficient. The person behind the counter is very soft spoken and gives you a slight smile but gets your order correct every time. Hands down so don't argue with me they have the absolute BEST orange chicken. It has a slight crunch on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside. The orange sauce is perfection. It has a great balance of salty and sweet without being overly sweet like an orange candy. It's not tart and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. They put the right amount of sauce so it is not drenched. Pair it with the garlic rice and the salad that crops and fresh no dressing is even needed. Order this and you will be happy. The regular white rice is good too! The Zapp chicken is crunchy, juicy and spicy. I normally cannot eat spicy but this one is perfect. Since my 24 year old son told me about this restaurant I've been here four times in the past month. Simply delicious!!!

    This was my 1st visit since the COVID era and it appears that Taishi Hainan Kitchen now shares the…read moresame kitchen with Tea 9 and Blossom Ramen. In addition, Taishi Hainan Chicken also opened another location in Long Beach. [Parking]: The parking lot is fairly small and is shared with Chicken Maison, but there is usually a spot available to park. [Ordering]: There's a kiosk to place an order at the cashier counter and I didn't pay any additional fee. However if customers order online via Chowbus, then there is a $1 online ordering fee. I received my order in less than 10 minutes as I was the sole customer. [Atmosphere]: Casual dine-in atmosphere and nothing to write home about. [Menu]: For their signature Thai-style Hainan Chicken, customers can order original, fried, or mixed chicken. There is no longer a Yelp check-in offer for free Herbal Chicken Soup, but it remains another popular order. *** Mixed Hainan Chicken Rice ($15.72): This order came with two sauces - one dark & spicy soy sauce (good for fried white chicken) and one sweet & sour sauce (good for original white meat). I personally prefer the fried over the original. Decent portion and enough to feed 1 adult. Herbal Chicken Soup (with spicy dipping sauce - $9.65): This is a really nice soup to drink when you have a cold. The broth had 5 herbs - Codonopsis, Rhizoma, Goji Berry, Dioscorea, and Astragalus. The chicken soup also had mushrooms and the broth was very savory. *** Overall still a solid 4 stars for the Hainan chicken rice and herbal chicken soup. This is one of those places I wouldn't mind stopping by again if I am looking to switch things up with what I want to eat for the day.

I came in later in the evening as I had just flown in and was staying nearby. This is super close to the hotel I was staying in. I was seated quickly, and my server brought me a menu. I asked about the spice level of the dish I got, and they were able to tone it down. I ordered the spicy seafood dish. My server asked if I wanted rice, and, whether white or brown, I ordered brown. Where I live, rice comes with it, and I didn't think anything of it until I got the bill and saw a $2.50 charge for the rice. I didn't even finish the rice because I thought it was part of the dish. I didn't need the rice; if I knew it was extra, I just wouldn't have ordered it. I'm not sure if that is standard on the West Coast or in this area. Other than the rice snafu, I was really happy with this restaurant. I really wanted some mango with sticky rice, especially after the table across from me got some, but I was so full. I might have to go back later today to have an order, as I absolutely love that dessert. Anyway, I enjoyed my meal and would certainly come back here in the future and I highly recommend.
