So glad I got the opportunity to check this place out. The food was so delicious! I ordered the crispy rolls with sweet and sour sauce and they were cooked to perfection. The crispy rolls were so full of flavor. They give you around 6 rolls, which is plenty. The service was also amazing. The staff were attentive and helpful with helping me decide what to choose from on the menu. The place was clean and I appreciated the rear parking lot they have available. The food came out within 10 minutes. I will definitely visit this place again soon. read more

Parking can be rough, but there is a parking lot in the rear as well as a handicap accessible entrance. We parked in the back and walked through to the front. At the front, there are menus that you can take to your own selected seats and review. When we came up to pick up the menus, we were greeted right away. When you are ready to order, just come up to the ordering window to place your order. We ordered lots of food. We ordered stir-fried mixed veggies, basil eggplant with beef, tom ka (soup with coconut milk), chicken sate (grilled sticks/skewers), and some crispy veggie rolls. The service was great! The food was fantastic. I would order everything again, and I will be coming back here again. Delicious food, great atmosphere. Very relaxing and pretty quiet. No loud music blasting away, easy to converse with your significant other, or friends. Highly recommended. Great flavors, great atmosphere, great food, great people. read more

I first discovered Dek Sen's from a mailer, and it wasn't until I saw a Thai Tea promo on UBEREats that I stopped in for the first time. The Thai Tea made here? Ooooh absolutely sugar through the roof - perfect for dilutions, but not as tasty otherwise. For dining in, parking is easily found on the street. It's a fairly cozy spot as well. Staff members take your order at the window, and you pay before receiving your food. On my next trip, I made sure to try a curry chicken lunch special. The value is indeed there, and the size was indeed modest but satisfying. The egg roll was STEAMING hot, so mouths beware! It was tasty in the sauce, of which there was plenty. I'm naturally conservative with my entree to rice portions, but even so I found myself having extra rice in the end. The curry also errred on the sweeter end. This picture doesn't do it justice with how little curry there actually is, but at this price point it's fair. read more

Dek Sen's By Rustic Spoon - Curry Chicken - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Honestly my new favorite Thai spot. The staff is so friendly and welcoming and the food is even better than the service! In my most recent visit, we had the Chicken Bao, Garlic Black Pepper Chicken, and the Pad Thai, all of which were absolutely delicious. They have a great combination of savory and sweet flavors. It's a pretty cozy and small spot, but I already can't wait for my next visit :) read more

Very tasty. Took soup home. Made me feel better from a cold. Nice service. Lowkey and cozy inside

Stopped by for supper and was welcomed immediately by hostess. We ordered the "Thai spicy" Green Curry (with pork belly), and the Thom youn Chicken soup (tasty & sour)! I loved the personally framed artwork and murals on the wall. It really set the scene & gave a smooth vibe while enjoying our meal. Also, there's more than enough parking in the rear lot. read more

Unbelievable food and service. This is our go-to neighborhood restaurant. Everything we've had on the menu has been amazing (it's become our favorite Thai spot). There's a real sense of pride in and a love for the food they serve. Also, they're just the nicest folks. Can't recommend this restaurant enough. read more

Highly recommended! There's no shortage of Thai restaurants in the SFV, but some are must try places, and this is one of them. It's a small space with several tables for dine in. If you plan to dine in, you order at the counter and the food will be brought to your table. I ordered my usual Thai food orders: a noodle dish, curry, and fried tofu. The pad see ew (pad c u) was delicious and not too sweet. It also comes with a generous amount of protein (beef). I had their red curry which was flavorful. Their fried tofu was on point and their sauce was a bit different from other places. It was more vinegar and light, rather than the usual thick/sweet sauce that I was used to. Looking forward to trying their other dishes like their Khao Soi! There is street parking in front of the store and there is a back parking lot. read more

I have walked and driven past this place so many times. I always said to myself that I would come in and that I would take one of their cooking classes. I was running errands as I get ready to move in January so I treated myself to dinner. Walking into this place the first thing you notice is that it's cozy. The decorations are simple and the menu is scattered on the window above where you place your order. The lady behind the counter was super friendly and helped me choose my drink which ironically is one of my favorites. Thai Iced T and she helped me decide on my second dish. The tea was perfect! My first dish was Moo Palo ( Braised Pork Belly with steamed Bach Choy and jasmine rice. ) The Pork Belly was perfectly cooked, tender and extremely flavorful. The rice was fluffy and the wasabi sauce was an amazing complement to the entire dish. The second dish that hit my table was Kee Mow ( Flat rice noodles stir fried in our signature drunken sauce , white onion and bell peppers.) The overall flavor and chew of these noodles was absolutely mind blowing. I topped this dish with their hot sauce, then devoured it. Now I will tell you one thing, do not and I repeat do not come here if you are in any way impatient or unaware that great food takes time. This place is a must visit and I mean that read more

Really yummy and reasonably priced. Love the options too. I usuallyotder the soup. M. The last time i did it was inedible die to the high salt content. But every thing else was amazing. I recommend read more

Once again, this is a 4.5. We wanted to pick some Thai food on the way home and came across this on Yelp. Never ate at Rustic Spoon but heard good things about it, so figured this seemed worth a try. Called in the order. Got there and it was almost ready. Cute, low-key place, order at window. Seems family owned and run because a couple of teens were doing their homework at the table. I had a rice dish with shrimp, medium spicy (the spice was perfect) and my wife had some veggie/rice/tofu dish that she liked a lot. I wanted more veggies so I tried the vegetable soup. Very simple broth with lots of vegetables. Very clean and tasty. Free lemonade with order (that was also good and I don't usually have fountain drinks). Good value, clean place, tasty food, we'll be back. read more

Came in to give our local Thai spot a try, and left VERY disappointed in the quality of the food. The pork belly buns were doused in hoisin sauce, making it very unpleasant to eat. The crab rangoons to my surprise came with NO (imitation) CRAB, just cream cheese! The interior is very cozy and service was ok. read more

This is a consistently good takeout spot with better prices than many other local spots. I have had their curries, noodle stir frys and everything has been great. My favorites are the eggplant basil, the Tom Yum soup and the Spicy Fried Rice. Easy ordering on their website and quick takeout turnaround. I'll def be back soon! read more

Best decision to try this place. If you want some really good fish, HIGHLY recommend getting the pla ka pow spicy. Perfect flavors and little kick. The yellow curry was creamy and light enough. Mixed stir fry veggies were really good and had a sweet hint to it. The employees were very nice and parking was easy with a lot in the back and street parking in the front. I ordered online for pick up and it was ready and the exact time it estimated. For sure adding this as a staple I will be going back to. read more

I was honestly scared to try this place because when I went to Rustic Spoon it was very mid. But Dek Sen rules! Been going out to eat alone and it is a very comfortable cafe to do that in. I didn't try enough on the menu to give a proper rating but from the meal and service I had alone I would give it five stars. The cashier also randomly came up to me to ask if I wanted a refill and I thought that was sweet because it's not really a sit down restaurant. I want to come back and try things on the drink menu! read more

What are we supposed do now that White Lotus Season 3 ended? EAT LOTS OF THAI FOOD. Dek Sen's lunch specials make it easy! Honestly when was the last time you saw a $12 lunch special in LA??? I was beyond pleased with the $12 green curry lunch special I got. They also gave me a 5% online order discount and free crab dumplings because I ordered more than $30. They actually forgot to include the free dumplings in the takeout bag but they fixed it very fast. Friendly and kind staff. The restaurant is casual, with colorful decor. Also there is a parking lot behind the restaurant which makes things very smooth because the street is pretty busy and it's sometimes hard to find parking. THE BEAT DEAL EVER. And the food was delicious!! (I wouldn't be leaving a good review no matter how cheap the food is unless the food is actually tastyyy) read more

Larb Wings: genius, delicious, unique approachable take on Larb. House wasabi udon: didn't get much wasabi but tasted great, shrimp was cooked to perfection, udon was bouncy and held the sauce well Massaman Curry: bold, tasty, creamy, tofu perfectly tender and absorbed good flavor from the curry. The dek sen sauce is amazing as well. Y'all know what you're doing, keep it up. Place is well decorated and our food came out on time , they even threw in a free fountain drink which was much appreciated. Gonna have to eat there next time as I expect it would've been even better straight out of the kitchen. read more

We came here while driving home from Santa Barbara and happened to be in the area when we were planning to pick up desserts at Creme Caramel LA which shares the same parking lot. Overall, we liked the food, especially for the Lunch Special prices. It's not amazing Thai food, and you can certainly get better, especially in Thai Town or even in my local area, but it's solid. We got the Green Curry, Eggplant Basil, and the Pad Thai. I think the worst dish was the Pad Thai since it was too sweet, but the others were good. We would probably go here again if we were in the area and looking for Thai food, but I wouldn't go out of my way. Nonetheless, a decent place with nice service. read more

Simply the best Thai food I've had in a while. I felt like I was transported to Bangkok. Affordable lunch special packing lots of flavor and a complete meal with rice, salad and a main. The sweeter customer service and someone in the kitchen has sweet hands ! Sooooo good !! read more

Khao Soi soup was amazing... and the packaging to get it home was fantastic! Will order again!

One of our favorite takeout places. Love the wings, speedy service and cute vibe. I love supporting this place. My go-to order is chicken pad Thai and steamed veggies with chicken. I've tried a number of items and they're all great. Tip - park in the back. Pop by creme caramel for dessert. Make sure they're open! read more

Little hole in the wall gem. Love the pad see ew or however it's spelled. Thumbs up to yall

I stopped by for lunch two weeks ago and ordered the pad Thai lunch special. Service was excellent and the ambiance was nice and quiet (I arrived right after they opened and it started to get busy within a few minutes). The food was good and fresh, and I kind of regret not trying out more items on the menu despite the fact that my meal was pretty filling. I overheard two different customers ordering the dumplings and was curious to see how good they were. Maybe next time! read more

We've been coming down to Van Nuys for work a lot and I've wanted to try this place for a while. Glad we did. What an awesome little small restaurant. They have so many options to choose from. The place is very cozy and quaint. It's very bright in color. The lady behind the counter was super sweet, helpful, and really friendly. She definitely knew what she was talking about when it came to spice level because she got it spot on for us! We ordered the sole fish fillet, which I got steamed instead of fried. We also ordered, the spicy fried rice, and the kee mow with beef. Even though we only ordered three dishes it was a lot of food! The portion sizes are great at this place. Now onto the food, the soul fish fillet was melt in your mouth tender, and I dipped it in the green sauce that it came with and it was absolutely amazing. Gave it the right amount of spice and a little bit of sour and it was incredible!!! My husband loved the spicy fried rice. We got it the highest spice level, and he said it was super flavorful the perfect amount of spicy and all-around delicious. The kee mow I had so much sauce and it tasted like genuine Thai street food. We ordered it medium spicy, and the level was perfect. The noodles were soft. The beef was tender. They had so many other things that we definitely wanna try and we can't wait to go back. Thanks Dek Sen's for an amazing first visit. Be seeing you soon! read more

If someone were to ever ask me, "what's my favorite dish?", I would have an answer in less than a nanosecond. The Kee Mao (with pork belly + medium spice) from Dek Sen's is truly a wonderful savory dish that I rave about to all who know me. The proportion is very reasonable for the price and you get a free drink after spending a certain amount - that's a huge plus! The space is cozy and small with a very limited parking space in the back, so you might have to fight someone for a spot. Regardless, this place is worth the trip and worth a couple bruises. read more

Really enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. We like Rustic Spoon in Valley Village so decided to try this place with all the positive reviews. It's labeled "Asian fusion" but it's mostly Thai food with some other Asian foods mixed in. I wish they got a little more creative with it but overall still really loved it. Tom Ka Coconut Soup: 10/10 got it with shrimp. Perfect mix of coconut and lime. Wasabi Udon House Noodles: 9/10 comfort food. The thick noodles weren't over cooked. The sauce was sweet and salty - I liked the pickled carrots and cabbage mixed in. Got it with beef. I didn't really get wasabi from this. Kimchi fried rice: 10/10 great flavor, comes with a fried egg on top and big chunks of kimchi. We ate inside, they have about 4 tables. Clean inside and casual vibe. Lots of people order to-go but you can definitely eat inside. There's parking in the back!!! The ladies were super friendly and the food came out very fast. read more

So loved the food but the rice that comes with curry is the tiniest I've seen, like it looks toy sized, if you are sharing a curry def not enough. I wish they would do the appropriate size rice like literally all the other places. I laughed out loud when I saw how tiny the container was. read more

I ordered online and got a 5% discount for doing so. The food was ready and had some extra time so it was able to eat in the restaurant itself. It has an interesting sliding door instead of a regular door up front. All the employees are tie so you know you're getting the real thing. I had the fish sauce chicken wings which were pretty good. They could have had a stronger fish sauce flavor, and the wings were quite small. Being Thai I like to have everything taste like fish sauce! In fact they gave me a side of fish sauce so I could dip my food in there. I also got Thai fried rice with added shrimp. Now this was what I remember my mom making for me. It was really good. read more

Every visit to Dek Sen's is a good one. And has been for me thus far. Chicken Satay, Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Basil Fried Rice... all immaculate in taste and presentation, shareable portions, and a meal that will overall serve you well throughout your day / evening. Service is always reliable, honest, and efficient. Ambiance is well. The place is well-lit, smells great, clean... looking forward to my next time visiting Dek Sen's. read more

Three things! 1. Dek Sen's is the friendliest establishment with the most delicious Thai - classic dishes and street food alike - from the sweetest owners. 2. Their Thai cooking class is FANTASTIC!! It's 45 minutes of you and your partner IN THE KITCHEN making three dishes that I could have only dreamed of getting to craft on my own. Miaow is the best teacher and host, and you'll leave having had so much fun and SO many leftovers to keep enjoying! Perfect for dates, friends, or as a gift. I have never felt like a chef more than with this experience! 3. The local Thai spot that everyone should be lucky enough to have. You'll be greeted with a smile and wowed by the food. Try the tom yum, shrimp egg rolls, and beef fried rice! read more

Dek Sen's is an offshoot of Rustic Spoon, which I've never been to but looks amazing and is a little pricey. Dek Sen's serves about 10 -12 dishes and keeps it simple. Everything is about 13-14 bucks. Not bad but not dirt cheap... 3 things will rum you more than $45 after everything. That being said, they make the best noodles in town... maybe anywhere. The sauce is deep and satisfying not thin and the same as everyone else's. They're darker... richer. Flavors are intense! Soooo good. We had a rice dish that was also killer. They don't have any salads or vegetable dishes. As I said, a simple menu focusing on mains and noodles. You've gotta try this place. read more

Honestly, I don't like giving bad reviews, however I tried take out Pad Thai on two separate occasions. Mediocre at best and small portions. Have decided not to give them a third attempt. Doesn't seem like it's run very professional. The interior is kind of messy and I can't figure out how they stay in business. read more
