    Pork Nam Tok I think....
    Tami N.

    Not a super fancy restaurant even though their plating is rather extravagant. Their food is great though!! Authentic yet still easy to eat even if you may not be used to many pungent flavors of thai food. I am Vietnamese and don't mind the strong and deep flavors. Love it actually. Staff is also very kind. -Duck curry was my favorite! So soft and you don't have to deal with picking the bones or anything. I never really had fruit in a curry before but I enjoyed it. Great balance of flavors -Lao Papaya Salad. Great for those who want a strong pungent flavor. If you're looking for something lighter and fresh, probably get the regular one. This may be too strong for you. -We did nam tok with pork jowl instead of beef. I think either would have been good. My first time trying this dish. The flavors are bursting, but I couldn't personally enjoy to the fullest because of the texture. This dish uses a rice powder I think for a but of crunch, but for those sensitive to certain textures, you may want to pass. Otherwise, it's a very good dish. Would try with beef next time. Great place for a date night or just a good meal out with friends/family. Family style is great to try all the different dishes. You can get your typical thai food here or be more adventurous with less popular but authentic food.

    Went here for a date on a Saturday evening. The food was delicious. Shana (I hope I spelled her name right) was excellent. Service was superb. We had the tom yum soup with chicken and duck curry. Finished off the evening with mango sticky fried rice. Loved the music and atmosphere. Will be back!

    Satay Chicken
    Arlene B.

    We were in the Torrance area and found this spot on a whim and I'm glad we did! Located in a shopping plaza and luckily there was ample parking. We didn't make reservations and I don't think we needed it because when we got there the place was pretty empty and we were seated right away. It got busy later on in the evening. We ordered the chicken satay and unlike other places, it didn't come on a skewer, rather thinly sliced. Loved the presentation of the dishes. They also have Puckett Thai tea which is a different leave and a little stronger but tasted really good! Service was great and fast! Inside was clean as well.

    Tom Yum Soup
    Sarah P.

    I feel bad leaving a mediocre review but that was my experience with the food here. Maybe bc of the close to 5-star rating, but I expected more. I ordered the tom yum soup and the red curry. Was thrown off by the tom yum. I was expecting the usual tangy lemongrass taste that I love, but was met with a more tomato base which was different. It kinda tasted like diluted pasta sauce met tom yum lol. Also there wasn't a variety of veggies. It was mostly mushroom and chicken chunks in the soup. The red curry was just okay. Not good, not bad just okay. The eggplant had so much oil coming out of it when I cut into smaller pieces. Sadly not sure I will come again:(

    This is some of the best and most authentic Thai food I've had. The flavors are incredibly well balanced, and everything is seasoned perfectly. One thing to note: be careful with the spice level. Their medium is genuinely spicy and will probably be too hot for most people. The duck curry is unique, rich, and absolutely delicious. I also highly recommend the pork jowl and the papaya salad. Every dish tasted fresh, flavorful, and true to authentic Thai cooking. I'll definitely be back.

    This is a thai restaurant loacted in a corner of a corner plaza of the intersection. The interior is given a modern flair with some admittedly strange choice of figures near the cashier stand. I came during a Monday near opening time for dinner. I ordered the shrimp paste fried rice (with medium spiciness). The rice has good flavor with the shrimp paste giving a salty savory flavor akin to fish sauce. The shrimp was well done, but definitely didn't jump onto the plate from the ocean. The texture is real dry which is okay... until you add the excellent seafood sauce that accompanies the rice. The seafood sauce adds a vibrant, acidic, and tangy taste to the dish while helping with the dry texture of the rice. The tang and acid helps cut the saltiness of the rice which keeps you wanting to eat more. This is the star component of the fried rice (which is likely why the rice is dry). I really enjoyed the shrimp paste fried rice here and it leaves me curious of the texture of their regular fried rice. As for now, this place gets a recommend on that dish and it certainly warrants a try of the rest of their menu.

    Grilled Pork Jowl - a yummy appetizer!
    Tiffany P.

    Favorites: Grilled Pork Jowl and Roasted Duck Curry! These succulent meats came with rich, flavorful sauces that had us savoring every bite. Our server was friendly, welcoming, and happy to offer recommendations. She checked in on us several times throughout the meal to make sure everything was to our liking. As a sweet bonus, the owner even sent us home with a bag of coconut chips to try out! This is exactly the kind of casual, delicious neighborhood spot you want to keep coming back to. Highly recommend!

    Khoa Soi
    Jane S.

    Tried Krata for the first time! Located in a strip mall, there's plenty of parking. The restaurant is nice and clean. We ordered 2 lunch specials: yellow curry with chicken and Hot basil ground chicken. And a Khoa Soi noodle. The lunch specials came with a nice spring salad and light crispy eggrolls. The chicken in both the curry and Khoa soi were exceptionally tender. We loved our food and the service and are looking forward to coming back to try more items.

    Red Chili Paste Fried Rice
    Nhi T.

    This restaurant is in a small plaza with a small parking lot. I came here around 8 pm, so wasn't busy and parking was fine. Restaurant itself was also small. It took a while for our food to come out, probably 20-30 minutes. There were a few other groups there and some to-go orders. We had the following: 1. Grilled pork jowl: fatty as expected, but it was good. The sauce on the side was tasty and had some spice to it. 2. Red Chili fried rice with chicken: fried rice was good. The chicken was fried, which I didn't expect. It kind of tasted/reminded me of popcorn chicken. I would have preferred just regular stir-fried chicken. 3. Tom yum soup with chicken: the soup was not as sour or did not have as strong of a lemongrass flavor as I would have liked, but overall the soup was still good. Although the soup itself seemed a bit concentrated. The plating for this restaurant was very nice. It provided an affordable fine-dining type feel that elevated the dishes. Prices were reasonable. Overall, the food was good. I would definitely come back to try some other dishes. Other than the food took some time to come out, service was good and staff was friendly.

    Free salad as appetizer
    Noba N.

    My friend had been eyeing this thai place. It seemed a bit more fancier than your typical thai restaurants. Every dish seemed beautifully presented. It's super nice that they gave salad as a free appetizer. We started with eggrolls. It wasn't the typical eggrolls I've had. It seemed like it had some kind of mashed potatoes inside? I don't know why but it tasted more Chinese dish than Thai? They cut it up and made it look super fancy. Personally, I feel like cutting it up in half would just make everything cool down faster, but I guess if it's for the presentation, so be it. It wasn't my favorite, but my friend seemed to enjoy it a lot. My friend got the duck curry and it looked so beautiful! It also came with a lychee, probably to offset the spiciness. Super cool! I got a regular curry with dark meat as option for the chicken. The chicken was super moist. I got a mild curry, but it was still super spicy for me. All in all it was super yummy.

    As a Thai American, honestly I would have never guessed that I would find an authentic Thai restaurant in Harbor City. Since the area is prominently non Thai or Asian, I had made assumptions about this Thai spot. I was wrong. I was so crazy wrong. Krata is actually cooking Thai food with authentic flavors. I was impressed! Krata is creative with presentation and introduces new Thai dishes that I never tasted before that my critical Thai mom would approve. Khao Soi with roasted duck breast, presentation was 10/10 along with concentrated curry flavors, both slippery & crunchy egg noodles, mustard greens and it was amazing. One of the best I've had. That roasted duck with crispy skin, yummy! For anyone who has a fitness goal and wants a chicken breast with thai flavors, get their chicken satay. Basically it's sliced grilled chicken breast that's flavorful. If you want something more tender, get the grilled Pork Jowl/Cheeks because that Thai dipping sauce it is paired with is damn spicy but so addictive. I noticed everyone ordered a different type of fried rice. I am so glad that I did. These are not ordinary types of fried rices. You can pick from their classic but have fun flavors like green curry, pineapple, crab, spicy basil but we opted for the red chili paste fried rice with fried shrimp. The presentation was magnificent and the flavors were wow. This spicy red chili thai fried rice with a mountain of fried shrimp. Loved the textures. Eveyone talks about Tom Yum or Tom Kha Soup (coconut), it was first time trying Gaeng RanJuan Beef Soup. Loved it. The flavors are comforting and the beef was tender. It's sour, spicy and great on a rainy day with steamed rice. This restaurant is welcoming. The service is attentive. It's a local restaurant that deserves more love and support. The restaurant is clean and spacious. You can't forget, you must order the roti with curry dipping sauce. So much fun to eat and dip into your curries and soup during your meal.

    Squid leg appetizer
    Kevin C.

    Wanted to try out a new thai spot today and this spot came up. Wasn't expecting too much but it was really good! We had the squid leg appetizer, glass noodle salad, the chef special (crispy garlic with pork jaw), and curry noodle. All three were really good but the chef special was my favorite for sure. The only thing was the appetizer was pretty small, though it was nice and crispy. But they didn't really give that much sauce. The service was quite good as well even though there was a large party there and we were told it might take a little longer, it didn't take long at all. The restaurant is modern looking and clean and the dishes are presented really nice as well! Definitely a good spot and would come back!

    Seafood w/mixed vegetables
    T B.

    This restaurant is a gem! It is sandwiched in a small mall on PCH, but the decor inside is eye catching and very clean. We've eaten here twice. The grilled pork jowl is delicious and should not be missed. I also enjoyed the eggplant with tofu and basil. On our second visit, we ordered the seafood with mixed vegetables and chicken pad see ew. Both delicious! The service is excellent and the servers are extremely helpful and nice! Must try!

    Really enjoyed our meal at Hansol inside H Mart in Torrance! We had the squid with bean sprouts and…read moreudon noodle soul. Both were really good, flavorful, and satisfying. The typical Korean banchan (side dishes) that came with the meal made everything even better. It's located inside the supermarket, so the dining area can get very crowded and busy, but the food came out fairly quickly, so the wait wasn't bad at all. You order your food, find yourself a table, and they call your number when your order is ready. Nothing fancy in terms of atmosphere but a busy H Mart food-court setting for that is tasty, comforting, and worth the wait. I'd definitely come back, especially when I'm craving a hot bowl of Korean soup!

Probably because it's Korean, in a Korean supermarket, where the competitors that folded shop were not always. Other stands also had a freshness issue - not much turnover as most visitors want Korean. Each time I shop at HMart, I see big soup bowls from Hansol. And I think, as a giant soup lover, I need to get me some. It always looks so good. Unfortunately, it does not taste as good as it looks. For example, the 2 rib special looks fantastic but the meat is tough to eat. The noodles are flat, need some flare. The rice bowls lack flavor. I see all these glowing reviews and know I'm swimming against the tide. Probably sacrilege for me to say that the Hmart prepared food tastes better than this restaurant... but I find this to be the case. The prices - not great. You pay for the convenience of being in a market. Counterintuitive as the ambience is what what you'd expect to pay for.

Trendy décor, clean…read morespace, and plenty of room to breathe, no cramped tables, no chaos, just a modern, welcoming vibe that makes you want to settle in and explore the menu. The service matches the ambience: friendly, attentive, and quick without ever feeling rushed. Im a big fan of sampling different styles and flavors of Wagyu... so my focal point was the Flaming Wagyu Carpaccio. This dish comes out like it's auditioning for a movie, very dramatic flame, sizzling aroma, and that buttery Wagyu richness hitting you before the plate even lands. The thin slices melt instantly, picking up smoky notes from the torch and balancing beautifully with the citrusy, herb-forward dressing. It's bold, elegant, and easily one of the most memorable starters you'll find in the area. Now let's talk about Wagyu Spicy Beef Stew This is where comfort meets luxury in this bowl. The broth is deep, savory, and layered with spice that warms you without overwhelming. The Wagyu chunks are tender, juicy, and soak up all that flavor like they were born for it. Every spoonful hits with richness, heat, and that slow‑cooked depth that makes you pause mid‑bite. It's the kind of stew that makes you rethink what "beef stew" can be. Now for the Wagyu Fried Rice A sleeper hit. The rice is fluffy, perfectly wok‑tossed, and packed with smoky aroma. The Wagyu adds a buttery richness that elevates the whole dish, every bite has that satisfying mix of crisp rice, savory beef, and fresh veggies. It's comfort food with premium flair, and honestly, it's dangerously addictive. How about it....Wagyu Sliders? These sliders are small but mighty. Soft buns, juicy Wagyu patties, and a house sauce that ties everything together with a sweet‑savory punch. They're rich without being heavy, and the texture is spot‑on, tender beef, melty toppings, and just enough char to give it personality. Perfect for sharing... or not sharing. Thai Tea & Lychee Tea Both teas are refreshing and the perfect finish to a Wagyu‑heavy meal. The Thai tea is creamy, bold, and sweet in that classic way that hits the nostalgia button. The lychee tea is lighter, floral, and super refreshing, a clean, fruity counterbalance to all the rich dishes. Together, they're a power duo. Redbo is trendy, clean, spacious, and backed by great service, but the real magic is in the Wagyu‑focused menu. From flaming carpaccio to spicy stew, fried rice, sliders, and refreshing teas, everything feels intentional, premium, and crafted with care. It's a must‑visit for anyone craving Vietnamese comfort with a modern, halal twist. Miguel C.
