Natalee Thai - Pad Thai, California Curry, Peasant's Pleasure ( FRIED RICE ) - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

What a surprise! I was hesitant on coming here because it only has a 3.5 stars rating. Despite its reviews/rating, my partner insisted the food and service were really good -- and he was right! Everything we ordered was delicious (pics attached)! The peanut sauce for the date was yuuummmmmmy! The yellow curry was so gooood! The only thing I didn't like was the Thai coffee that I ordered. It just didn't taste right, for some reason. Easy parking. Good and friendly service! The interior is nice and clean. read more

I was craving some really good Thai food and Natalee Thai never disappoints. Dined in on a Saturday late afternoon. No wait. The service was really fast and the food came out piping hot made fresh to order. The shrimp cake appetizers are so delicious and of course for my main dish I ordered the popular pad see ew (chicken). Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The service was fast and everyone was very attentive and friendly. There is a parking lot in the back (free and plenty spaces). They have indoor and outdoor patio seating. I will say, when you first walk in through the back.... There is always a terrible smell (I believe it's the bathroom pipes.... But not sure). They should really look into fixing that. read more

Been coming here for over 25 years and they're usually very consistent. The chicken satay is a really good appetizer. The yellow curry chicken is really good with carrots and potatoes. Not the best curry I have ever had, but is solid. I also like the chow mein not sure if that's Thai or Chinese, but it is pretty good with your choice of meat and vegetables. They have won best Thai restaurant in Culver City for like the last 10 years or longer. read more

Great customer service, clean restaurant with a cool vibe. Delicious food full of flavor without being greasy or soggy. The fried rice has chicken, shrimp and the most tender beef. I love that they keep the veggies with a little bite to them. The pad Thai has the perfect amount of sauce and peanuts. The wontons soup was soooo good. The crisp fresh bok choy and green onions with that flavorful broth and the wontons is definitely a must try. Whenever I'm on this side of town I have to make a stop. I usually take it to go but it was a treat to slow down and dine in. read more

Came for something healthy. Ehhhh. Got here at about 6pm on a Thursday with co-workers. We were working late. Seated immediately. Nice decor. Feels modern in sense. I went for the Tom Yum Chicken and Hot Stuff Chicken. Kept it keto. I havent had Tom Yum in a min. But this was ... very lack luster. I got the large and the amount of chicken is is less than the mushrooms. Well I got the medium spice level. And when I got the soup it was not hot temperature wise. It was in between wamr and above room temp. Also spice level was not present. $18 for the large. Hot Stuff - Chicken was aight. Portion was on the small side. Not spicy at all. Bell peppersm garlic and basil. flavors we're aight. $18 Either the waiter or kitchen forgot the pad thai. Coworker got this and said it was forgetable and salty. Probs wont be back. read more

The service is awful , i believe the lady was a manager but she was very rude. Our male server was fine but there was a big ass long black hair and our egg rolls should have taken a photo no one acknowledge it or did anything about it. The manager i believe she was the manager just had an attitude because she said we called her over to order more food when we actually just asked someone to grab our server to make a modification to our order. Will not be back way better thai places to try. Do not recommend. read more

We used to love this place and I gave them great reviews, but now they are just awful. I ordered pick up and when we go home are main dish, duck, was not there. We called and they said they would make it and have it delivered right away. Over an hour later, the duck is still not here and the manager, May might be her name as decided she did us a big favor. I could have driven there and back twice but now. Further, the dumplings were not hot and the rice is dry. They have agreed to give us $30 credit for my next visit. They should have just taken it off the bill. They claim they can't and I know for a fact that this is not a hard thing to do. I would love to tell you about the duck, but it is still not here and we are still waiting. The rest of our not great food is ruined. We will have to go back to order and get the credit and this place is very expensive. I could not be more unhappy. And they should know better. read more

Natalee Thai has been around for decades. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and we were seated right away. We ordered the pork shoulder and orange chicken with brown rice. Everything was good and fresh. We ordered the bbq beef to go but we're unpleasantly surprised that there was only two pieces of beef. For $28 definitely expected more. Inside is spacious with table and booth seating. Plenty of parking in the lot. read more

Got takeout from here and it was pretty good! Pad Thai: 7/10 A bit bland. Spicy noodles: 9/10 Could use more spice but overall flavor and texture of the noodles was great. Chicken satay: 9/10 The peanut sauce is incredible. Pad see ew: 9/10 Great texture and flavor. Good pad see ew. Staff is friendly and the interior is nice and clean. read more

This place is and has always been great. I love bringing my family here, or ordering DoorDash. The pad Thai is my favorite. Saw a legend last time there James Hong, 97 year old actor. RESPECT read more

I dined on the braised pork shank which was absolutely delicious. The meat was tender and moist to the point it fell off the bone. The broth it was served with was lightly sweet with a mild peppery note. Accompanying the pork shank was Chinese broccoli and a braised onion. This dish is heart and very satisfying. The service as Natalee Thai is always fiver star service. The wait staff is very hospitable, they make sure your every need is met. The dining area is spacious lending to an enjoyable dining experience. There is a large parking lot which is shared with a Smart and Final store. Give Natalee Thai a try, you'll be glad you did. read more

Came here on a Thursday evening and were seated immediately, it was moderately full around 6PM. Its an interesting building and decor that allows for a lot of natural light given where we were seated. I ordered the pad see ew, which came out pretty quick and was a good size. I ended up eating more than I thought I could, since the noodles were really good and a great chewy consistency! The prices were pretty average as well. I would def come back here again or order take-out since it seems like a reliable thai place. The menu was also pretty large so there is probs something for everyone! read more

I stopped by here to grab pad thai since it was nearby and it was lunchtime; the flavor was okay but the portion was a lot smaller than I expected compared to other Thai restaurants that I've been to for what they charge - also customer service was a little bit awkward because there was a good amount of staff that was there, but no greeting or any word from them (from the moment I walked in + they all kind of just stood around). When I walked up to the front cashier counter to request an order takeout - they all were still standing around so the whole process just took longer than I had expected - I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon. read more

I drive by this place all the time but have never gone in except for this time--when my cousin had her birthday dinner here. Our server was Micah and he was very attentive and accommodating. I ordered the crispy tofu appetizer (9/10) and it had a crispy outside and soft interior. It was a bit too moist inside for me--I think they didn't drain enough liquid out of the tofu before frying. But it was still very good. I also had the fish with the curry sauce and that was so good 10/10! The fish was fried crispy and served hot in a bed of red curry. I had it with white rice and it easily became one of my favorite dishes! I'll be back! read more

This is my family's go to spot for Thai food in the area. Food is always consistent and taste great, I'm not big on leaving reviews but I had to leave one this time because of the incredible service by our server Judy. I usually come weekends with my family and it's my first time seeing her here so I'm assuming she's new if not then her service was remarkable and worth the 5 stars. Judy was very attentive and patient although the restaurant was very busy, I hope to see her again. read more

We defied on Natalee Thai for dinner last night. This is our favorite Thai restaurant. We got the Siamese shrimp (supposed to be spicy), shrimp pad Thai, and steamed shrimp dumplings. All of our food was delicious. The Siamese shrimp wasn't as spicy as I expected though. We were sat immediately, but it was more in a corner and we were a little confused why because the restaurant was empty. The lychee martini was delicious also! read more

This place was always over priced and the service is slow. Get delivery, it takes forever and all your food will be wrong and then you call them and they don't care. They will resend and take their sweet time about it. Their food was never great, but it was good. No more. Their Pad Thai tastes like something I can get anywhere and for so much less. I had their stupid duck and you know what I got in my box, we did pick up, a bone, a plain bone. No meat on it at all. I wonder what that cost me. The rest was cut so badly and it was tough. Their rice--white rice--is good, the rest are not great at all. The place is clean, but not comfortable. Parking is free and quite easy. The spring rolls are dry and boring. I am just done with this place. I really gave them many chances. read more

"I ordered through Uber Eats, but every time I order from this restaurant, they send the wrong food. I called to explain the issue, and the person who answered was very rude and acted like it was my fault. I even had to bring the food back to the restaurant just so they would believe me. The customer service was very disappointing. I would not recommend this place based on my experience." read more

This store is near my home, and I finally dined in. It is nice and clean, and the staff is very courteous. There are many different items on the menu. I opted for the Pad See Ew with shrimp, which was quite good, with a good serving of shrimp. A bit pricey, but it is LA. I'll be back. read more

Natalee Thai - Pad See Ew w/Shrimp - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This review is for the take out. I have never dined here even though a) it is so close to me and b) it's always packed - which is a good sign! We always get the pad Thai, yellow and green curry, and pad see ew. All of which are pretty standard and yummy! The other day we got the beef kabob that was a bit dry and the papaya salad that was a bit meager for the price. However given the ease and convenience will likely be back. Orders are always accurate and on time! read more

I have been coming to this location for years. My most recent visit was the first Sunday of the year on Jan 4th. I parked behind the restaurant which also shares a parking lot with Smart and Final. The restaurant was busy but I waited no time for a table for two. I asked for booth and was happily accommodated. I ordered my favorite dish, the Tom Yum soup with chicken. I was indecisive for my second dish so I simply ordered the Natalie Delight (a variety of appetizers. Lastly, I order a lychee martini for the first time. The Martini was 10/10 as it was right in the middle of sweet and alcoholic. It also came with fresh fruit! The soup in my opinion was not as hot as usual, but still amazing. The second dish had a similar issue as different items were not the same temperature. For example, the chicken sate was cold but I was hungry so didn't mind it. The Natalee Delight comes with Thai shrimp cake (5/10), chicken sate (7/10), Siam spring roll (8/10), and west side wontons (9/10). My overall experience was great aside from the inconsistent temperature which has never happened. read more

I've been coming to Natalee Thai for a while now, at least the past couple of decades. I used to live in the area & it was my go-to for Thai food. My favorites are definitely the crab fried rice and the nutty chicken. Both are so flavorful & deeply satisfying. Sadly, they got rid of the crying tiger beef dish they used to have on the menu. Hopefully, they'll bring it back as I don't think I've had it quite as good anywhere else (hint, hint!). If you like Thai, definitely check out this place. read more

Service was good and the ambiance was nice -- clean, modern, and comfortable. However, the prices here are very high, even for the area. We started with the Natalie Fresh Rolls, which are their take on Vietnamese spring rolls. Honestly, they were disappointing. For $11.99, you only get two tiny rolls, much smaller than what you'd get at a typical Vietnamese restaurant. They tasted fine -- fresh and light -- but definitely not worth the price. I finished both in about three bites. Would I order them again? Absolutely not. Next up was the Chicken Larb. Oh my god, it was so spicy. The server didn't ask for a spice level, so we were caught off guard. I can usually handle heat pretty well, but this one really pushed it. If you have a low spice tolerance, stay away. The flavor was fresh and herbaceous, but not the best larb I've had -- just okay overall. Lastly, we got the Pad See Ew with fried tofu, and this was definitely the highlight. The tofu was amazing -- super flavorful, perfectly fried, and easily the best I've had in any Thai noodle dish. The noodles were seasoned really well, and I appreciated that they used authentic Chinese broccoli instead of regular broccoli. The only thing missing was that smoky, charred wok flavor I love. Still, this was the best dish of the night. That said, it was also $19, which feels steep for Pad See Ew. Overall, I'd say the food here is hit or miss. Some dishes are solid, but others feel overpriced for what you get. I get that it's Culver City, so prices run higher, but there are plenty of Thai restaurants in L.A. that deliver better value and flavor. Still, Natalie Thai is decent -- just not one I'd rush back to read more

I have been coming to Natalee for over 16-20 years. The food is delicious still to this day. My only complaint is that I have been noticing that the food portions have been very small. I've noticed that the plates have gotten smaller and the prices are remaining the same, but the good portions are shrinking... That's a true problem. Normally I can eat on plate for two days before. Now with the new portion size of the food, I can finish it in the restaurant. That's how much the food has changed with the size of the plates ...... Not the best idea to consider downsizing your portions and the price is remaining high. Thank you for your consideration... read more

I love this place. The food is delicious and the service is great. Very lively atmosphere as well. If you feel like Thai or have never tried it and want to, I'd recommend Natalee Thai.

I don't think you can really go wrong with whatever you order. You will be satisfied. read more

Yesterday I called Natalie Thai regarding a walk-in party of eight around 5:30 PM. I explained that I was about 30 minutes away and asked if that would be okay. I was initially told it was fine, but after being placed on hold, I was informed that I could no longer come in because there were two parties of ten ahead of us. I completely understand that situations change in the restaurant business, and as someone who has experience in hospitality and understands how restaurants operate, I truly respect that. This post is not about being upset over not being accommodated. I understand business and know that things happen. My issue is with how the situation was handled. I spoke with a manager, I believe his name was Kale, and during our conversation he became frustrated and told me, "Don't aggravate me," before hanging up the phone. As someone who has worked in hospitality for many years, I was simply trying to bring business to your establishment. I would have completely understood if I had been politely told there were limitations or circumstances preventing my party from being seated. Communication and professionalism go a long way. What made the experience more disappointing was that when I called back and asked to speak with a manager to explain how I felt, Kale began laughing during the conversation. I don't know if this was a communication issue or a misunderstanding, but the interaction felt very disrespectful. I'm writing this because Natalie Thai has great food and a good reputation, and I hope ownership sees this as constructive feedback and an opportunity to address situations like this moving forward. Unfortunately, after feeling dismissed and disrespected, I won't be returning. Customer service and how people are treated matter just as much as the food itself. I simply wanted to bring awareness to my experience. read more

This is literally the best pad see ew I've ever had in my life. It was so good that I had it twice!!!

May 17, 2025. Another wonderful dine-in experience. My friend and I dined in, and from the time we walked in to the time we left the service was amazing. I ordered my usual, Broccoli and Oyster Sauce with Shrimp, and Spring Rolls. The broccoli and shrimp were cooked to perfection. My only complaint was I did not have enough Oyster Sauce and when I put the broccoli and shrimp over the rice it wasn't as good as I would have liked, but still good. The Spring Rolls were perfect. My friend ordered soup, dumplings, and Pad Thai, she enjoyed it all. As always, the restaurant was very clean and it started to get crowded as we were leaving. Posted pictures of today's visit. I'm not sure why Yelp replaces pictures of previous reviews. Please forgive any typos this is posted from a mobile device. read more

Food is delicious! Very fresh and clean.... The food and the locale. Make sure you're specific on spice level, hot is hot!!!!

We ordered: 1) Rama's Pork Ribs 2) Heavenly Combo 3) Shrimp Pad See Ew 4) Sticky Rice w/ Mango Service was great. Attentive staff and friendly. We were able to have a conversation easily, which was nice. There were other people dining in but we didn't have to yell to hear each other. As far as the food, I thought it was average. The Heavenly Combo is what I liked best out of the dishes we ordered. The Sticky Rice w/ Mango wasn't my favorite and the Pad See Ew was just ok. The Rama's Pork Ribs were also just eh. If you're able to find parking in their lot, great, however it is limited and spots fill up fast. read more
