I don't write often, but have to say they have the best yellow curry anywhere. Be careful, if you order spicy it is SPICY. Lunch special is a great deal! Highly recommended read more

This has amazing authentic Thai food it's is always in pint. Not too salty either and every single time it's been tasty with various spices.

Order the pa tai it was good but they hot my order wrong both times. I wanted the pa tai with both chicken and shrimp but the first time the bring the pa tai with only chicken and charge with pa tsi with shrimp. Second time only shrimp and made me wait another 20-25 min for my meal. All in all the food was good but service not do much. read more

~$10 lunch specials :) My coworkers love this place... It's okay at best. I've tried: - Pad thai - Yellow chicken curry - panang curry - thai bbq chicken Food Review: - Pad thai is bomb. But it tastes like a standard pad thai... - Yellow chicken curry is also good. Not enough curry though. - Panang curry is standard - Thai BBQ chicken is actually a lot more than I expected. Chicken isn't dry thankfully. Service is slow, but I won't hold that against Pink Pepper since they are busy during lunch time. I do have to point out that they aren't attentive to the customers. - It takes a while for utensils to be distributed. - It takes a while for drinks (no straws unless you order a non-water drink) - It takes a while to order - It takes a while to refill water (They rarely refilled my water) - It takes a while for the check ** I also wanted to point out that many times I ordered curry, I had to request for a spoon.... How was I going to eat curry without a spoon? Besides the service, I agree the food is good and I don't think there is a thai place close by on Hollywood Blvd otherwise. Happy eatings :) read more

Ordered delivery via Eat24... delivery was fast and easy - no issues. Food was terrible. Beef fried rice was made with some sort of unrecognizable "meat product" that was not fit for cat food. Thai egg roll was over-fried and also just awful. Panag curry was only edible thing - but I still wouldn't order it again. No sauces - not even a small packet of soy sauce. Rice isn't included with the curry dishes so make sure you order it on the side. But really, do yourself a solid and don't order from here. It's pretty bad. Borderline gross. read more

Came here 3 years ago on vacation because I was staying close and flash forward I ended up moving to LA and this place is still my favorite spot. I come here at least twice a month. Staff is so kind and food is AMAZING read more

Fancy hidden gem with reasonable affordable prices located just off the walk of fame. Prefer to sit inside because the homeless situation.

Pretty good lunch specials. Your usual at these kinds of places a meat or veggie main, rice, egg roll and a salad. They run about $13 to $17. Service was excellent! A good option in the neighborhood. They have plenty of outdoor seating. read more

Their food is delicious. And the girl who brought out my order was very kind. I'm semi handicapped and she brought it to my car.

We were looking for something near our hotel and this place was at convenient distance. I really enjoyed pad Thai. My boyfriend had pineapple curry which he enjoyed read more

I asked if I could have Veggie ONLY dumplings, the cashier went to the kitchen and asked then told me yes. I ordered take out so when I got home I cut into the dumpling and saw chicken crumbles. I called and told them my veggie dumplings had chicken and the guy proceeded to debate with me that it did not. He then said "our dumplings are bought from the store in a package"! Umm WOW so they're not even freshly made in the restaurant. I asked for refund and he said NO because I took food home already. Well I believe that's what take out means. First and LAST time coming to Pink Pepper! read more

BEWARE ! I am appalled by the customer service in this place. Let me start by saying the food was fine. However - the place has a "free" on hour parking in a parking lot nearby. Completely false. I came a few months ago, stayed less than an hour and had to pay $5 when I left. This time is happened again! I called the restaurant and spoke to Tony, who was not friendly or helpful at all. Kept telling me to read the sign. Well, I attach the sign here. It is 5:30pm and I'm leaving the parking lot after spending 40 min at the restaurant and paying another $5 at the parking garage. FALSE ADVERTISING AND HORRIBLE ATTITUDE by TONY the manager . read more

Thank god my Thai tea wasn't too sweet! I think they might make it with half n half and I also requested to have it 50% sweet. The pineapple fried rice was decent but hardly had any chicken. I like that they use recyclable to-go containers. Dumplings were decent. read more

Awful & traumatizing experience. Just a couple of days ago I ordered food from Pink Pepper, excited to eat my food, i took a bite on my eggroll, second chew, i bit on something really hard, my tooth almost broke, I spat my food out, and turned out, there was a huge metal screw inside my eggroll!!! See pictures. I immediately contacted the restaurant to tell them what happened. Well, the manager, Tony, then giggled. At that point i was already frustrated and asked him to email me instead. Tony then proceeded to tell me that they had been looking for this screw and wanted it back! Can you believe this?! I guess it was part of one of their machines for check mandolin levels. Any way, this is so beyond awful and disgusting. I could have swallowed this thing or broken a tooth! What if it had been a kid swallowing this?! I am beside myself by their lack to care, attention and response to this matter. They offered me $25 for my next order, and refund. What makes them think I'll ever eat there again? There's a reason this restaurant was shut down before. Should have remained closed! I suggest next time you get your food from there, inspect it before digesting it. read more

very cool place to eat thai food. staffs are very friendly and nice. food are great too.

Terrible customer service!!! Hostess is very rude and unorganized !!!! Just because of her I wouldn't be coming back!!!!!!!!!

Dont waste your time ordering here. Placed delivery order via ChowNow which apparently the restaurant could care less about keeping on top of. They confirmed the order and then completely ignored it. I had to call ChowNow to find out what happened. If you're busy then turn off the app, it's not that hard. Wasted an hour waiting for food that was never coming. read more

This place is a Hollywood gem! The chicken curry is a must try! The staff is wonderful and prices very reasonable.

Another place that is better to be closed. Absolutely disappointed with everything here including the front door. Cooks r dressed casually inside the kitchen. Service is slow , unfriendly and very unprofessional. Foodwise I cant say I walked out before my food was served because it was just a waste of my time and I could stay in such a restaurant diI would rather go to Panda Express than come here again. Please do something about this you mister owner who is running this pathetic,, wannabe good place,, Save your money and time by not entering. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch as I was on my way to work a video gig at Hollywood and Highland, decent decision. Place was pretty empty so sat quickly, and immediately served. Cold water, and lunch special curry. Service was solid and fast, salad first course then lunch special. The food was OK, Chicken was a little dry but the curry was flavorful. For the 10 dollar lunch special, the portion is decent! 4 stars, quick lunch spot. read more

NOT COVID COMPLIANT We love(d) the food and ate here quite often before Covid. During this time we have tried to order takeout from our favorite places and tonight we ordered from Pink Pepper. When we arrived, we observed that the kitchen staff, including the owner, were preparing and cooking food without the use of PPE (face masks). When asked why he wasn't protecting his employees or his patrons the owner blatantly said he "didn't care." We canceled the order and will NOT be going back.. I'm in a high risk category and can't afford to get C-19. Shame on this owner for risking the health of his employees and his patrons. read more

Food was good , the portions not so much I was left to go find some more to eat good grub tho , just a lil stingy

This was the worst but at least, funniest in retrospect, dining experience of my entire life. Yes, this is my superlative funniest and worst dining experience ever. We arrived for our reservation, a foreign city to me but we were hopeful and optimistic. My friend ordered a soup appetizer and they brought him out a pot of soup. He, gently, said he ordered a bowl of soup, for one person. The waitress actually SCREAMED at him, "YOU SAID POT!" We were confused and appalled. (The funniness comes in because now whenever we're pissed we go, "he/she said Pot!" At the time, it was not funny though. Wow. What is wrong with her to scream at anyone like that, let alone a customer? Other people got their food but I never got mine. I ordered an exotic dish they probably don't make often, Pad Thai. Ever heard of it? Well, they might not have because I never saw it. 5 mins, 10 mins... Where's my pad Thai, I ask? They casually tell me "it's coming." 20 mins later - everyone is done eating! I tell them I don't want it anymore and they're like "ok..." No apology! No remorse! They really didn't want us there and I really didn't understand why, but don't worry. We won't be back. This place is a rude dump full of garbage people. I hope it burns to the ground. read more

Came here on Sunday night for a birthday dinner for 9. Great food, service, and experience all around! This group was a particularly quirky group, so any restaurant gets extra points for putting up with us. I'll explain. We started with some sake, and the birthday girl ordered 7 dishes for us so that we could have a variety. Unfortunately, I didn't know all the names, but it was a great place to order lots of food family-style and pass it around to share. What I DO remember was the curry salmon. Sooooooo good! We loved it so much that 3 of us scraped the rest of the sauce off the place to eat with rice. Salmon was perfectly cooked and flaky, and the red sauce was so rich and flavorful. I'd go back just for that. The other food we tried was good, but this place was special to me because of the service. Our waitress hid the birthday cake for me, brought it out and lit the candles herself, and seemed to really want to help us make it a fun dinner for the birthday girl. We asked if we could bring our own classy cups that we made (please see https://s3-media2.ak.yelpcdn.com/photo/ALllBr-7u_vwkoc3Ay1yXw/l.jpg..... elegunce, y'all!) and they were totally fine with it. We popped 2 bottles of our own champagne for $8 corkage fee each, and no cake plating fee. Overall, we paid $18 each including the corkage, sake, 7 dishes split, and other non-alki drinks, which I'd say was a good deal! They didn't mind our "classy" cups or behavior, loudness, or celebrating.... the staff was so friendly and accomodating and just wanted us to have fun. Nice decor, ambiance, and lighting, and we didn't feel out of place in our formal clothes (for an event afterward). Even though it's so close to the busy area of Hollywood, it was tucked away enough to feel secluded from the craziness. 2-hour parking validated in the lot behind the restaurant. Thank you, Pink Pepper, for helping to make our birthday girl feel special! read more

Pink Pepper is just as good today as it was the first time I tried it. Now I'm a big fan of their dynamite wings (which are SERIOUSLY spicy) and their chow mein is off the hook. It's not overly greasy and the sauce they cook the noodles in is tart and hearty. I actually dined in this time and the service was super friendly and on point and the inside of this place is clean and modern. They also serve beer here and a nice Singha beer goes great with their spicy curry wontons. My dude loves Thai food and he was really pleased with one of my favorite Thai spots in LA. read more

Got the chicken curry lunch special. It was $8-something. Came with a salad with some white sauce, white or brown rice, egg roll with dipping sauce. The taste was pretty good, but the pieces of chicken and potato were way too big. Like somebody just cut one entire potato in half. Likewise, the chicken was one solid mass avoid the size of my closed fist. It was annoying to break up the giant pieces of potato and chicken into reasonable pieces. Nobody can eat a 3-inch potato chunk. You can see how big the pieces are in my photo. Not my favorite and I will not be returning. The flavor was reasonable but not anything extraordinary. The younger waitress had a bit of an attitude and spoke extremely softly so it was difficult to hear her. There was an older waitress there who was much nicer and made sure our waters were filled and etc. Overall, not my favorite and I will not be returning. read more

Ok... I Love the food here. My favorite is the Crab fried Rice Yummy and there stuffed Chicken Wings are tasty too :-) But as everyone know by now, I'm a Stickler for good service. The waiters and waitresses are pretty good BUT the Manager is a JERK! He's rude and inconsiderate of customer service. He got into an argument with this lady who has been a customer for years who had said she didn't ask for egg in her rice and could they please make her another plate. Well the manager guy said no, only if she paid for both orders and I thought that wasn't cool. He cursed at her and said she didn't ask for 'no egg' and she could leave. CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY! They need to leave him in the back and close the doors. read more

** 3.5 Stars ** Oh, Ikemen, why did you have to close???!? When our go to spot across the street was closed, we decided to try Pink Pepper. I had low expectations (especially since it was nearly empty) and was pleasantly surprised how good it was. Was it the best Thai that I've had? Not even close. Would I go out of my way to eat here? Probably not. But everything that we had was good and I left feeling satisfied. We had: THAI DUMPLINGS Chicken and Vegetable dumplings BROCCOLI AND OYSTER SAUCE with bean sprouts (with Chicken) CHICKEN NOODLES Flat rice noodles, chicken and egg Everything was good, but there's nothing I would say stood out or that you must order. A standard Thai place, but a bit pricey for what it is. This is somewhere that I'd definitely order delivery from, but I'm not sure if it's somewhere you go to sit down and have a nice meal. read more

WOW i am impressed. Went to LA to visit family and we all decided on Thai food. I've never tried Thai food but thought, why not? When we arrived we got sat quickly and went ahead and ordered. service was amazing!! Food was delicious! Me and my sister fell in love with it! I live out in VA so there's no way i can be able to buy from this place again, but even after a year later having visit the place, i've literally DREAMED when i was going to go again. I've even tried other Thai restaurant but nothing compares to Pink Pepper. Definitely recommend!! read more

I've been coming here since 1999 and I'm yet to be disappointed..excellent food, service and ambience..he best Thai place in town. I recommend the chicken satay, yellow chicken curry and the pad Thai, although everything is good here, this is what I really love. They also have a very delivery service also, fast and efficient. There's an outdoor patio area which is great for groups, and as this place is close to Hollywood/highland, it's a great stop before a movie or club.. read more

I came here for lunch with some friends to eat around 12 noon and the place was empty when we first walked in which was weird because I always here about it always being crowed, but slowly it started to fill up. We had a reservation for 6 people for lunch and we were seated and our orders were taken. Over all nothing fancy but not hole in the wall thai food, its just okay. The food was good, however the service was just whatever. There was no smile or extra step to make our experience memorable. Everyone who I know that eats here gets everything to-go, maybe that's what I should do, because the food is good, its just the actual restaurant is nothing special. read more

At first I didn't like Pink Pepper. I thought it was some overpriced non authentic thai food place. I stayed away for a whole year while working in the area. Then one day it rained and I had no choice but to order since it was the closest to me. The first few times I was disappointed. The portions are SMALL and the price is painful to your wallet. I stopped ordering from this place for a while until earlier this year. I was hooked on their "Tom Kha Koong" (coconut shrimp soup). I was ordering it every day for 2 months straight. One day, I ordered it and it just didn't seem to taste all that good anymore so I stopped. The soup was about $5.50 with tax. So I moved on to Pad Thai.....OMG....I was hooked again. I was eating that damn noodles almost every day. They practically know me over there since I order the same thing over and over again. Service is okay. I always do phone orders but every time someone takes my order they are all nice. Sometimes this place gets crazy busy but other times they are slow. It looks fairly clean in there and I like the little center pieces they put on each table. Kind of brings color to the place. Despite the crazy prices, I really like there food. Certain food that is....i still can't believe I pay about $12/a day for Pad Thai. I know I'm crazy but it's the only thing I like eating over there. One day I need to stop cold turkey on Pink Pepper but it's hard having to work next door when all you smell is the yummy food they cook and it fills the air as you walk to the parking structure. I'm only giving it a 4 star because the prices are insane! read more

I love this place! My friend who lives in the area took me here and we enjoyed the best food, friendliest service, and lovely ambiance in the outdoor patio. I had the chicken larb which was delicious and spicy like I like. My friend ordered pad thai which was the best I've had in a long time! I will definitely be back to try more of their tasty menu! read more

A very short walk from the craziness of Hollywood Boulevard, it's just around the corner from the entrance to the Walk of Fame sidewalk, so it's in a quiet part of town. Open until 11pm on Saturday, which was fantastic given that many stores close at 10pm in the area. A reminder of why I love Thai food in LA. It's cheaper and tastier than the stuff I get in San Diego. The chicken radna was positively savory without being crazy on the salt and MSG, as is often the case back home. The pad thai was spot on. The dishes were only $10 each for just chicken or veggies (and $12 with chicken plus shrimp). Big portions too, as I took half my home as leftovers. The hot tea my dining companion and I ordered was plentiful beautifully presented in a glass teapot with a warming tealight underneath. My booth had cracked seats that should be replaced, boo, but otherwise the place looked up to date and was elegantly decorated. If I ever find myself again in the hullabaloo of Hollywood and want a peaceful and delicious dinner away from the crowds, I will walk right into this place versus driving elsewhere. read more

This place is delicious!!! We got the salmon curry which was superb, the fish was fresh and the curry was on point. The staff was friendly and accommodating especially with my friend's allergy. They have a relaxing patio too which was nice after a long day. Oh and the pad Thai slaps too. We will definitely dine here again!!! read more

I was desperate to find a vegan-friendly restaurant near the Hollywood and Highland metro stop, as I was catching a show at the Hollywood Bowl in the early evening. It's not easy to do (whereas Hollywood and Vine is flush). Pink Pepper was about as good as it gets in that area, which is to say not very good at all. We got the prik khing ($10) and the rad na noodles ($10). The prik khing was okay but nothing to write home about; the rad na was too salty and also just weird-tasting. Something was off about the dish. Brown rice costs $1.50, by the way. The service is friendly and the space itself looks nice and modern. Pink Pepper is one of the only Thai restaurants in the center of touristy Hollywood. It's not great, but it's better than nothing. read more
