    Angel Wings.
    Jennifer B.

    Mom and I (along with pup in tow) ran a ton of errands one fine SoCal morning, which is prolly why our hunger pangs kinda kicked in a bit early. We were within a mile radius, so being in the area AND having the pup, we had to find a dog-friendly spot for grub. This is the one that popped up first (I'm guessing it's because it's the closest.) Made a reservation, came through a few minutes early, but was welcomed in and seated by staff immediately. We were the first ones seated at the patio, so we got to choose where to go - we opted to sit all the way at the end (given the pup and all.) Nice tropical themed decor, but what we appreciated more is that fresh and cool breeze coming from the ocean. So here's a teenee tip: if you plan on eating at their patio, bring a light sweater/jacket. It tends to get cold in this here 'hood! We must have been hungry because we were good to order within a couple of minutes! ANGEL WINGS: A must-have whenever I see it on the menu. Came through nice and hot. The stuffing was seasoned very nicely. Nice crunch on the outside, moist in the inside. So off to a good start! WONTON SOUP: Been craving for this but wanted to experience it here. Mediocre at best. Broth didn't really have depth. Wonton was delish, though, so there's that. I will admit I have a favorite place for this particular dish. Sadly, the version here didn't come close. MONGOLIAN BEEF LUNCH SPECIAL: I realized after I ordered this that it's more a Chinese dish. (Woops...) That said, I didn't expect much which ended up being a good thing. I think my senses got a little confused because it isn't even close to what I'm used to. Seasoning was good but something was missing and couldn't quite put my finger on it... ... but the tom yum broth was FIRE. My taste buds were dancing as I tasted the many complex flavors. Really liked that part of my lunch. THAI BBQ CHICKEN: Mom's choice. This was also a disappointment. Every piece of chicken in the plate was drier than the Sahara. It's as if they did a quick thaw of the chicken from the freezer, smeared seasoning (which was good, won't deny that) and grilled it. We felt like it was a waste of seasoning. Not recommending. We washed it all down with Thai iced tea which was perfect! FOOD: 3. (The lunch special soup, Thai iced tea and the angel wings were the saving grace here.) SERVICE: 5. Our server was so friendly and amazing! I'm bummed I didn't catch her name! VALUE: 3. PARKING: Private lot shared at the back. I believe street parking is also available. OVERALL: 3.5. It was an okay but could be better first run. If I were to come back, it'd be for those Angel wings, but I will come back and try something else. Will update review as needed.

    Ginger fish

    Ambiance very pretty it was like we were in Thailand! Staff very nice but not as attentive but it's okay. We ordered pad ke mao which was honestly so good, also ordered ginger fish which was bland but not bad and spicy eggplant wasn't as spicy and the eggplant wasn't as flavorful but still okay. Would def come back to try other dishes!

    Pad Thai and Curry
    Lilly K.

    Decor was Thai traditional. Became busy as the night progressed. Service was a little slow but it was Valentine's Day. The food was decent and plenty, which they had asked us for spice level, it was not spicy at all

    to-go items: pad thai and pad se ew
    Janessa H.

    was a little worried to try out this spot but the photos looked great so I'm really glad I did. It's a solid thai spot, they make everything without spice so please ask for spice if you want it! Would definitely be back, the takeout portions were big too! $15.75 each. and they have an awesome lunch special and happy hour. lots of free parking on the side street.

    Everything about this place is really wonderful, not sure why it's not reflected in the average review score. If you like Thai food, give this place a try!

    Scrumptious lunch with Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, tofu Masaman Curry. tom yum soup & salad are included with all lunch specials.

    This is now our favorite Thai restaurant, as the food is delicious with authentic flavors! We loved the lunch specials with pad Thai and the pad see ew were fantastic! The tofu red curry and the tom yum soup were yummy too. Everything was made care by Jeri and her cooks! The decor was tropical with a relaxing vibe , had good service by Nina ... for sure, we will return for dinner soon. Kudos to owners Mai & Dan for re-opening this restaurant & continuing the legacy of this place!

    Apparently this restaurant is now known as Jeep Thai Eatery. I hadn't dined here for a while and…read moredecided to stop in for a quick dinner. When we arrived it was apparent the "chef@ was also the hostess. As a result we waited quite a while to be greeted and seated. I should note that the chef did arrive about thirty minutes later. I ordered the Waan Om Khom Kluean yellow chicken curry and my guest had the deeb Sao Thai Pad Thai with shrimp. I also ordered a Thai ice tea and the server forgot to bring it. I had to remind her after my meal was almost finished. To me the chicken curry had a terrible unappetizing presentation. It looked like shredded chicken and big lumps of potatoes. In fast that's what it was. While the taste was pretty good, the over abundance of potatoes felt like a filler for less chicken. It was a decent dish but far from one of my favorites. The Pad Thai looked a lot better. My guest said it was good, not great, and that he'd order it again. Now to the price. Nearly $70 including the two dishes, one Thai ice tea and rice. This was not fine dining. I realize they have bills to pay but it was much more than I've paid at other Thai restaurants for similar meals. All parking is on the street. One need a bit of courage to park on PCH as passing cars make it scary to open the driver's door. Cars were flying by in the 40's and 50's and it's a very unsafe parking location.

    While the somewhat smaller portion of BBQ chicken was shockingly juicy and tasty, the other dishes…read moreleft much to be desired. Our larb salad was painfully salty to the point where it couldn't be enjoyed on its own and the kang kio wan curry was somehow watery and bland. Both the pork and beef were overcooked and tough. Unfortunately that the meal turned out to be such a flop, the chicken was the only thing that saved this from being a single star.

When you dine in they bring metal cups with an icy cold carafe of cold water to your table. Customer service is efficient. The person behind the counter is very soft spoken and gives you a slight smile but gets your order correct every time. Hands down so don't argue with me they have the absolute BEST orange chicken. It has a slight crunch on the outside while tender and juicy in the inside. The orange sauce is perfection. It has a great balance of salty and sweet without being overly sweet like an orange candy. It's not tart and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. They put the right amount of sauce so it is not drenched. Pair it with the garlic rice and the salad that crops and fresh no dressing is even needed. Order this and you will be happy. The regular white rice is good too! The Zapp chicken is crunchy, juicy and spicy. I normally cannot eat spicy but this one is perfect. Since my 24 year old son told me about this restaurant I've been here four times in the past month. Simply delicious!!!

I couldn't stop even though my order was a pretty large portion! Honestly this could be easily shared by 2 people. The chicken isn't "heavy" so it's quite easy to just eat a lot. I'm only docking a star because the boba left a lot to be desired. The tea itself was fine but the boba formed clumps and it was difficulty to drink through the straw. It's located in a tiny strip mall but there's a good amount of parking. Service was fast. We ordered on a tablet and sat at a table. There were a couple of dirty tables but as we ate, we saw them clean up. Will I be back? Absolutely! Can't wait to try other menu items.

But the real star is the food. Every dish was incredibly flavorful, perfectly prepared, and not the least bit greasy. Honestly, just delicious. The portions are generous too. We ordered three dishes and still came home with leftovers. The highlight of the evening was meeting Ben, whose parents opened the restaurant many years ago. His dad still comes in every morning to make the curry bases from scratch. That kind of family pride and dedication really shows in the food. What a delightful place. Five stars for the food, the atmosphere, and the service. We'll definitely be back. 5 stars!

Everything was ordered EXTRA SPICY -- Level 5 through the online menu. When we got home, we took our first bites and immediately thought, "Wait... did they give us someone else's food?" No spice. Zero. Barely any flavor at all. This wasn't Level 5. This wasn't Level 1. This was apparently Level 0: Thai food for people who are afraid of black pepper. So we called the restaurant. The woman who answered told us, incredibly confidently, that they don't make their food spicy. Excuse me... what? This is a Thai restaurant. We have ordered spicy food from Swan Thai before. And, more importantly, your own online ordering system literally has spice levels, including Level 5. So either the online menu is completely meaningless, or someone in the restaurant has decided that customers no longer deserve to know what they're ordering. We asked to speak with a manager. Apparently, there was no manager. We asked for the owner. We were told the owners "come and go as they want." So who exactly is running this place? Is it just a group project where everyone shows up, does whatever they want, and hopes nobody asks questions? The food was so bland and disappointing that we barely ate it. And honestly, after the ridiculous phone conversation, we didn't even have much interest in finishing it. What makes this worse is that I used to like Swan Thai. That's why this was so disappointing. Restaurants can have an off day, but when the food is wrong, the online menu contradicts what an employee tells you, and there apparently isn't even a manager available to address the issue, that's more than an off day. Swan Thai, you used to be much better. Somewhere along the way, the food lost its flavor and the customer service apparently lost its direction. I won't be making the mistake of ordering here again.
