The Pad See Ew is the real deal, it's perfectly fried, utilizes tasty sauces, and the noodles are delicious. My only problem with this Thai spot are the portions, they're small for the price. My meal was provided in a tiny plastic container, it was a little underwhelming. I don't know if they mistakenly packed me a to-go container? Additionally, a soda fountain would be great, only cans/bottles are available here. If you're into a buzzy eateries inside Grand Central Market, you'll love this place. I definitely would come back for a light lunch or dinner. It's perfect for a chat or hangout. Staff are professional, but it would be nice if they were more warm. It was a Wednesday night in Los Angeles, it wasn't overly packed. I'm not quite sure why they were so stressed.

The regular menu is quite expensive with the cheapest at $17 for appetizer and salad options and most expensive at a whooping $80. The lunch menu was more affordable but still on the pricey side $21-$32 with add on options. The waitress was taking our orders and what surprised me was with my co-worker ordered the pad see ew and the waitress asked her how spicy she wants it. I was aw shocked. I'm not a Thai food expert but I do know pad see ew is a noodles dish that's offers a sweet soy sauce flavor. Never served spicy. I didn't get to try the dish but when I asked my co worker how it taste she said it was spicy and not sweet at all. I'm not sure that was an authentic pad see ew. I ordered from the lunch menu and got the tumeric chicken, with steamed vegetables and paid extra $7 to substitute for a papaya salad. I asked for #2 spice level but it was not spicy at all. Other co workers said they asked for medium but it was way too spicy. So it looks like their spicy levels are inconsistent. I'm not sure how this restaurant can justify the prices with the quality they are serving. Probably won't be back. Service was mediocre. Didn't offer to refill our waters.

My wife and I came for my birthday outing (she surprised me). Thai is always a "go to" and when we hit LA it's food time. The appetizer set the tone - crab wontons (ummmm - yeah I'm no food geography expert but I imagine they didn't originate in Thailand but who cares they rock!) My wife said probably the best she has ever had - crispy, creamy, actual crab sightings in the filling - loved it. Green curry - loaded with ingredients and aromatic and enticing. Eggplant, bamboo shoots lots of meat, veggies - and the curry underneath was loaded with flavor. Medium spice hit just right (I can handle Thai hot but I am taking it easy ok??) Drunken noodles - but an udon version? Let's try it - loved it! Again - plentiful meat, basil fragrance wafting to my nostrils, spicy sweet and savory blended sauce - fantastic. Verdict? Solid 5 on all hands. Service, ambience, food, value... You won't be sorry.

Ambience: I came a Friday after work and it was not busy at all. I enjoyed it. The elderly woman…read morerunning the front (Tang) was sweet, inviting and welcoming in a genuine way. I felt like I came to eat and my mom's house. They take Debit Card and Apple Pay WITH a pin only. I forgot my wallet and paid with Apple Pay. It did not have a place for tip which made me feel awful. At the end I apologized and she was like "it's ok, next time." And she was genuinely fine with it. She reassured me not to worry about it. So I'm determined to come back to tip her because if anybody deserved a tip it was her. I ordered Pad Thai with tofu- I like to order peanut sauce on the side and the woman found it interesting and struck a non judgmental conversion about it. I could really tell she was genuinely curious. This was my favorite dish. It was good. I also ordered spicy fried rice with tofu and spicy panang curry with vegetables. I chose 4 out of a 6 for spicy and it was not spicy at all for me. The rice was fine, nothing extraordinary and nothing bad. The panang curry was yummy. I don't know if it's regional but it was very light in taste and light in thickness. BUT I enjoyed it for what it was. Felt like I had gotten home made chicken soup or something like that comforting and not overly processed. Maybe it's because I ordered it with no protein and just vegetables. I ordered a lot of food so I explained to her that I was going to eat some and take the rest to go. When she brought the food she brought it nicely packed without a bag. She also brought me a real plate and utensils to eat here. She let me know that when I was ready she'd bring a bag which I thought was thoughtful. She also made sure to say "take your time, no need to rush. We close at 8" and it was 5pm. Again, it felt genuinely nurturing, she wanted to make sure I felt taken care of and welcomed. It meant a lot because I was frazzled from forgetting my wallet and from having a hard day at work. This was my first time here and it won't be my last. There is a small lot on site. Prices were very reasonable.

The restaurant is beautifully designed, very well kept, and has a classy, relaxing atmosphere that makes it perfect for a date night or special meal. We started with appetizers, including the shrimp appetizer, which was easily the highlight of the meal 10/10. It was incredibly flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. We also had the Bird's Eye Tofu appetizer, which I'd give an 8/10. It had great flavor with a nice kick, and I really enjoyed it. For my entrée, I tried the Yellow Noodle Tofu, which was a 9/10. The noodles were packed with flavor and made for a satisfying, delicious dish. My date ordered the lemongrass fish, served with black rice, mixed vegetable soup, and a refreshing side of cucumber, tomato, pickled onions, and carrots. He rated it a 9/10 and really enjoyed the balance of flavors and generous portions. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience. The food was flavorful, the atmosphere was elegant, and the service made the experience even better.

I've lived in Silver Lake for 34 years and there's a reason why I haven't been to "Leela"…read morepreviously. I love great Thai and Chinese food when it's done well. And I've always been circumspect about "quick serve" versions of these cuisines...and apparently for good reason My friend (who apparently thinks this restaurant is fantastic) suggested we try it so I was game. We both ordered lunch specials for $16.95. My choice was the basil chili and pork which came with a choice of soup or salad. My friend ordered the broccoli cashew with chicken. We both opted for a salad and brown rice. The salad came with a disgusting ranch dressing but turned out to be the best part of the meal. My entree had lots of diced zucchini, bell peppers and carrots in an indescribable goopy sauce along with a giant mound of brown rice and a fried vegetarian egg roll. It was both unappetizing and virtually inedible. There was paper thin pieces of pork as well which didn't improve the experience. My friend's cashew/broccoli with chicken looked equally unappetizing but he ate it with great delight. I wouldn't feed this food to my dog and I can only posit that this dumps' longevity can be attributable to fast and cheap. Because there's absolutely no other reason I can imagine that ANYONE would think this dreck even approaches the concept of Thai food. To make matters worse, several hours later I developed a stomach ache and came down with explosive diarrhea. Do yourself a favor and stay away from ANY ethnic restaurant that offers cheap lunch specials or buffet service. If there was an option to rate this restaurant with zero stars I would have!
