    Roti with Green Curry Chicken
    Chris R.

    Fantastic! The crispy rice on fire is one of the best dishes I've had in LA, full stop. I also got some green curry with roti, which was fantastic!! Service was impeccable. I'll absolutely be back!!

    Brioche French Toast

    This food was really nice. Started with the pork belly. It had a light flavor; It was not dry, but I personally prefer more juicy pork belly. The crisp on it was very nice and the sauce that went with it was also very tasty (salty, sweet, fresh). The Green Curry was super tasty. The food inside of the curry was fresh and worked well together. The eggplant was especially soft and soaked up the curry nicely without falling apart. The Roti it came with was so delicious, it was perfectly crispy and was almost like doughy puff pastry but even softer, it was pretty oily thought if you want to look out for that. The French Toast was nice. Kind of a random option for a Thai place and if you are looking for a dessert not too sweet this was perfect. The fry on it was nice and made it have a nice crisp without being too oily. The berries and cream were great complements with it. If you aren't looking for a dessert or to be too stuffed you could go without it though I feel like there are better options and not worth $23 personally. It was definitely a fun item to try. Not much to say about the service. It was solid and nice, just not very chatty. The ambiance was nice it is close quarters and cute as the store is not very large.

    Thai ice tea and Vietnamese ice coffee

    Came here on a Saturday around 1pm. Inside is a nice ambiance, great for that modern look. Apparently it's also endorsed by the Thai government for its authentic food - that's cool! The servers are polite and present. Did take orders of other tables that arrived later than us but we manage to place our orders eventually. Seems to have some repeating customers that came for takeout & their team looked somewhat busy with takeouts while managing dine in customers. The quality of the food is questionable - perhaps what we got just isn't good option on the menu or representative of them. Orders * Happy ribs- 1/5 - fried pork did not taste good.. I was expecting some more substance but felt like it was under seasoned and over fried. The rice became drier and more difficult to scoop for a good bite. Felt like it was old rice that was reheated then threw into a Thai looking basket. * Happy chicken- 2/5 - this had more flavor and seasoning than the pork, it was fried a bit too much in certain places so overall taste wise, it didn't make the experience any better. Rice also wasn't that great, dry & got hard. * Thai tea - 3/5- this is on the much sweeter side so if it isn't up your alley I wouldn't go for it. If you are lactose intolerant, I recommend you take a tablet before you drink this. * Ice coffee - 3/5 - something was off about the one that was made, just didn't taste good. Seating? Can accommodate large groups & small groups. Seems great for small family, and the casual get together and meet ups. Restroom? Yes; it's clean and cozy size so if you do have a wheelchair I would advise to get some assistance. Parking? Difficult; we went to a nearby parking garage and walked over.

    I absolutely love this place. As someone who loves Thai food, I'd come here religiously because I genuinely haven't had better Thai food yet. Take this with a grain of salt since I just moved to LA, but after trying a few spots so far, this one is easily my favorite and I've already come back. The noodles are delicious, the service is perfect, and the prices are fair. Everything just feels RIGHT. It's honestly worth it. The drinks are also great, and as a coffee girl, this place DELIVERS. It's one of those you have to try it spots because it does exactly what it's supposed to do. The Thai is Thai-ing. When I say this place is good, I really mean it. I haven't had a single bad dish here. If you're looking for something light-ish but still satisfying, come here. The food comes out fast, the staff is super nice, and I genuinely don't know how this place could go wrong.

    Garlic Green Beans
    Jessica M.

    What a great little restaurant! Came here for brunch on a Saturday morning and it had a a fair amount of people, but not too loud so it's great for a catch up meal. This restaurant is a great combination of Thai food and some American food. I got the Garlic Green Beans and Red Curry. The garlic green beans are flavorful, nice, and crunchy. Very flavorful. The Red Curry was seasoned great and had so much flavor. I wanted to slurp the whole bowl. Of course remember to get Jasmine Rice with the curry. I was able to find some street parking a little ways down, in front of the Ralph's. There was also a little street parking in front of the restaurant, but sparse. The ambiance in here is great. A nice, clean, modern restaurant. Kind of like a small cafe restaurant. The service is also great. The employees are very nice and attentive. There to answer any questions you have.

    Ms. Dang's Crispy Rice on Fire
    Beatrice V.

    Came here for dinner with a friend! (Parked in the Ralph's parking lot even though it's probably not allowed) It was empty inside but they were getting a ton of orders so it seems like a popular spot for delivery or takeout. It's cute inside, they had pretty flowers on every table. Between the two of us, we split a few dishes. Things came out pretty quickly! Som Tum: classic papaya salad. Really good! Ms. Dang's Crispy Rice on Fire: crispy fried rice with pork and lemongrass. I thought it was good but the pork was a little too sour for me, I didn't love the dish. Ga Prao Basil & Chili Chicken: Thought this was pretty good but also wasn't blown away. Overall decent meal. I'd want to try other dishes next time, except for maybe the papaya salad. There are so many options on their menu so it's hard to pick! Everything had a beautiful presentation and tasted fresh.

    Thai food

    Delicious and unique Thai food in the West Hollywood area! I visited this Thai restaurant for an early lunch on Sunday. It wasn't too busy so my group got seated right away. Firstly, we all ordered the Vietnamese coffee. It was refreshing, tasty, and gave us the caffeine boost we all needed! It was sweet, but not too sweet. Standard Vietnamese coffee. Next, we ordered a fried tofu appetizer to share. The tofu was fried perfectly and I loved the crispy panko breading. The tofu flavor also worked well and wasn't overpowering. Paired with the sweet chili peanut sauce, it was delicious. For my main meal, I ordered ba mee tom yum with crispy pork belly. I hadn't had this dish before and it was yummy! The soup was the perfect amount of spicy and tangy. It wasn't oily and was warm and refreshing. The noodle and bean sprout ratios were also good, not too much or too little of each. The pork belly was good, it was thick and juicy. My only critique is I wish the pork belly was crispier, but I understand it might be hard to pull that off since it is submerged in soup. Lastly, I tried one of my friend's pork skewers and it was tasty. It was seasoned well, soft, and had a nice charred flavor. It's very similar to the Filipino pork skewers. The service was also great. Our server seemed really happy to serve us. The interior is also nice with a minimalist and aesthetic vibe. Overall, a great experience here. They have so many Thai breakfast/brunch options I want to try. Will definitely be coming back here.

    Wow! Such a cute place! We came for lunch as we were staying in an Airbnb close enough to walk. The staff was super friendly and efficient! We sat inside and it was getting pretty busy when we left around 12 on a Monday. We shared the vegetable tom ka soup and it was just perfect! It had so many fresh veggies and we asked to make it a little spicier as our server it usually comes medium. The egg rolls were perfection! So light and fresh. I ate the entire plate which is rare for me! My husband got the crispy pork ribs which were also very good! The wine was very cold and delicious as well. If we lived in town, we would be there often!

    It was our first time here and in the beginning we had concerns about the parking. Parked in the Ralph's parking lot but was afraid the car would get towed but the employees working at the restaurant were super helpful and said they had a small parking lot in the back with only two spots. Luckily we found a spot and was able to enjoy our meal. We ordered the happy belly to start and the pork was really crispy and tender. Also ordered the Tom yum soup which was spicier than I imagined. Ordered mild spicy and it felt like a medium spicy. Last but not least ordered the crab fried rice. It is real crab meat and the rice was flavorful but a bit oily. Flavors were tasty and delicious but a bit salty. It's nice that it has its own parking structure which is hard to find in ktown and West Hollywood area!

    Otus has been on my watchlist for a while. My friend and I came on a weekend for dinner and had no trouble getting spots, but it did get busy by 6:30. We shared the happy pork ribs, which were meh. The meat was pretty tough honestly. I got the yellow curry with chicken, which was fine but nothing special. My friend got the pad Thai, which I tried a bit of and liked. Overall I thought this place was ok, but there are so many great Thai places in the area that I don't think it really stands out.

    Tom Yum Soup with Chicken
    Ryan V.

    Oh my...what a wonderful surprise. Decided to give it a try as it's across from my work. From the moment you enter, nothing but all smiles from the staff. Happy staff, happy kitchen. Happy customers. This soup is wonderful, along with the vibes in the restaurant being a 10/10. Found a new spot! Cant wait to try other dishes on the menu :)

    N G.

    Otus is normally good but my order was disappointing today. I ordered delivery and finally decided to try the spring rolls for lunch. What arrived was all lettuce with one tiny speck of tofu. Huge waste of money.

    Me and my boyfriend live coming here for date night! The ambience is amazing and the food is so incredibly good, its such a lowkey spot we love it!

    Is it laptop/work-friendly?

    They have free wifi here but the food should not be ignored. Put work away to enjoy this food. It's a small space so if you want to work here, choose the not so busy hours to work here.

    Do you still do bottomless mimosas?

    Yes! Weekend Bottomless Mimosas - 11am-4pm

    Anyone know how's the parking situation here?

    There is a small lot in back of the restaurant (entrance on Fountain just west of La Brea). There's also a fair amount of nearby street parking, ranging from meters on La Brea to free parking on Fountain (just read signage carefully!).

I really enjoyed the light colors, interior decor, and organization of Stagger Coffee. The interior screams that Stagger really thought about both function and form; sitting may be a bit cramped at times, but it's K-town and foot traffic and visitor count is high. There's also some seating outdoors on the stone benches which can be nice until someone's smoking in the corridor. The iced latte? The first sips were good and bold, but this drink definitely felt more icy and watered down within 15 minutes. I'm not sure why but sip after sip, I felt less interested in drinking it. Perhaps I'll give this another try in the future, but for now this might be a one-time visit.

I've had visits where I waited over an hour and others where I was in and out in under 10 minutes. From my experience, the best time to go is in the middle of the week between 11 am and 3 pm. The shop itself is very small, so when it gets busy, the line often wraps outside. Parking is also street parking, and you may have to park farther down and walk over during peak times. Despite the crowds, the staff is always friendly and works quickly for the amount of people they're serving. My favorites are the Matcha Einspanner and Hojicha Einspanner with whole milk. Both are SO smooth with strong tea flavors. The matcha leans nutty, which I love, while the hojicha has such a rich, earthy flavor. This is genuinely one of the best places I've had matcha and hojicha, and I've tried a lot of both. The Breakfast Sliders are another favorite and absolutely worth getting if you make it before they stop serving them. They're delicious on their own, but the sauces that come with them make them even better. No matter how busy Community Goods gets, I always find myself coming back whenever I'm in the area. If you love matcha or hojicha, this is an absolute must-try.

    I heard enormous hype regarding Community Goods and as a tourist, I definitely wanted to give it a…read moreshot. However, I left wondering how the standard for food and drinks can be so low despite paying premium prices. When we arrived, we lined up for approximate 20 minutes. I loved the homey cabin like vibes and the simple, but iconic branding. We ordered a couple drinks and the turkey and chicken cutlet sandwich. When I tried my matcha latte, it did not have much matcha flavour and tasted mostly like milk. The colour also suggests to me that there is not much matcha in the drink. My friend described her einspanner latte as average, but way too sweet. When we tried our sandwiches, the bread was dry and the sandwich was not very flavourful, although there was ample amount of ingredients inside. However, it was not enough for either of us to finish our sandwiches completely. This might be LA's finest, but it's weak compared to matcha, coffee, and sandwiches back home. Maybe I'll come at the right time and give the famous sliders a shot next time!
