Wow has this place gone down hill what a huge disappointment! I waited 40 minutes for soggy oily noodles. Luckily I ordered a soup while I waited and they charged me for it even though I waited 40 minutes and had to send back the inedible noodles and left with nothing! I asked to speak with a manager and was told there was nobody there to help me and to come back Monday if I wanted a refund. Unacceptable. I ended up wasting over an hour of my life there and went home starving! There were 5 other people there who had phone ordered and had been waiting longer than 45 min. I hate writing negative reviews but this one was well deserved read more

Pink Pepper falsely advertises its prices. They are AWARE of the 4 DOLLAR price gaps on their website vs in person menu and have KNOWN for at least 1 YEAR according to their staff. Yet, they DO NOT honor the price advertised. I DROVE all the way there to PICK UP my order and they refused to do a price adjustment when I pointed out their lie. I used to love this place. What a greedy and distorted way of treating customers. I bet they fix this BS now. LIARS. They do not respect the value of their customers. Advertise a meal at $9 + tax and charge $13 +tax. It's a very bad practice. Makes me wonder if they cut corners on the food. They seem to need the money. It is a 2 second website swap. SMH. I'll go to Pad Ord down the street. Their website is accurate and they are always respectful and thoughtful when I go. I think I might just call the better business bureau if I don't see this change by Monday. read more

This is the best Thai restaurant in all of Los Angeles! I have frequented Pink Pepper for 10+ years now. Never disappointed!

I could wax poetic about their tom yum koong with shrimp all day long. no joke, it's currently the wallpaper photo on my phone. when I lived down the street I used to order a hot pot of this heavenly soup once a week and now any chance I get while in hwood I stop here for a bowlful of deliciousness. pad see ew is always perfectly prepared. crisp broccoli, plump and juicy shrimp. it's as good as it gets. I wish I could say I've tried the curry or any of their other tempting dishes, but I'm a creature of habit and these 2 dishes are my mainstay. read more

By far the worst service I have received here. I have been a customer for over 10 years. No one is wearing a mask inside the kitchen, my family is immune compromised and by them not following protocols it puts everyone at risk, not just me but everyone receiving orders from this restaurant. There is no excuse for them not to follow COVID guidelines as we are in a pandemic. The customer service is the worst, the guy in the front has an attitude like it's our fault that they are busy. They should be grateful that they even have business with this type of behavior and service. read more

This restaurant should not be in business if it does not follow COVID-19 guidelines. No one in the kitchen is wearing their masks! I spoke to the supervisor and questioned him why his staff was not wearing their mask and he said they were. Wearing the mask on your chin is not wearing your mask! Plus the customer service is terrible. You are busy and we understand but to full on just be rude and racist at this point is unacceptable. Will not be coming here ever again and will be filling a report to the health department. read more

What a slow place! Salmon is not fresh at all. Neither is any of their dishes and yet they take so long to serve. The hosts also don't know how to take your order and they keep mixing it up. Once they took 2 hrs to deliver my order when it was only 0.5 miles away and then forgot the main entree with the order! And took another hour to deliver that! Also mind you there are roaches in the restaurant. Never ordering again read more

This place is a little pricey for delivery but I order from them twice a month during the pandemic and I am never disappointed. Their Tom Kha Ghai (Lemongrass/coconut/chicken soup) is great and I order enough to last for a few days. The Chicken Larb, egg rolls, spicy chicken wings, noodles and my favorite main dish Prik King are all excellent. I don't recall ever ordering anything that I didn't like. read more

If you care about food, eat here. If you care about maximizing your dollar, eat here. A+ quality at COMPETITIVE prices. They could easily charge more for their food if you consider the quality of the food and the quality of the environment they provide. I live 30 miles away, but I always go to Pink Pepper when I want Thai food because it isn't the same to eat Thai anywhere else. I'm not saying this is the best Thai place, but spending under 20 dollars for a complete meal (entre, app, drink), I haven't found anywhere better. read more

Okay so CAVEAT* I wasn't feeling too great before coming to this restaurant so that will affect my review. I was feeling under the weather and was in the mood for some Thai broth so I looked up Thai restaurants in my area and was pointed to this place. The parking isn't the greatest. You loop up a few levels to the level that has any spots. (Mind you, 7-8 levels) So I wasn't feeling too great after that. They do validate though! The food was OK. I love Thai food and I was underwhelmed. The service was GREAT though. If there wasn't a large selection of Thai food establishments in this area, I would come back for the service alone. That is, unfortunately, not the case. I got food poisoning. I was in bed for a few days, unable to work. Maybe this spot was the straw that broke the donkey's back. Who knows? I won't risk my health to find out. read more

We ordered from here weekly but will never order again. We found a rubber band in our pad Thai tonight (I uploaded a photo). After calling to let them know, they said they don't care. The service here is disrespectful and he went on to insult me as a "not good customer". I hope Yelp will pin this post to the top so people know not to support such disgusting business practices. read more

Pink Pepper - Rubber band in my pad Thai - DISGUSTING - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Just had the worst experience with delivery last night. 1. It took 2 hours to have my food delivered to my house. This place is 10-15min away from where I live. The estimated wait time was 40 minutes. I was very very HANGRY. 2. They forgot an item. I ordered a total of 4 items and they only brought 3. Called this place and asked to deliver it but their response was "But it's going to take a long time." I'm sure it's going to take a long time. Possibly another 2 hours. If you can't deliver what you promised, do not take an order in the first place. True 1 star. #nevercomingback read more

Long story short: Nice lunch spot with solid yet slightly pricey food. They don't allow dogs. Long story long: After a nice morning hike at Runyan Canyon, my friend and I decided to come here for lunch. A friend of hers had told her about this place and after a few minutes, eventually found it. Somewhat of a slightly unexpected place for a Thai restaurant. I mean, this is right around the corner from Grauman's Chinese Theater and Hollywood & Highland, instead of Thai town. *shrug* There is a public parking structure in the back behind the restaurant, and apparently this restaurant validates. The space is simple yet sleek and on the verge of contemporary. They had a covered patio almost as large and the indoor seating area. It was a nice day out and decided to grab a seat on the patio instead of inside. Plus, my friend had her dog with her and had me ask if she could bring her dog in while she went to go park. However, they wouldn't even let her bring her dog on the patio, so she had to leave her in the car with the window cracked. It's not like this place was busy or anything. Minus points for that. Our server came by and we ordered waters as we looked over the menu. Offerings included typical Thai dishes and a couple of not so typical Thai dishes. After a couple of minutes, we decided to share 3 dishes: spicy beef salad, pad woo sen, and the lamb curry. The salad came out and looked pretty good with lots of veggies and a good amount of meat. The lime dressing on there was good and it had a pretty nice subtle spicy kick to it. I would order this again. The pad woo sen (clear thin noodles) with chicken and shrimp, tomatoes, onions, beansprouts, and eggs was good too. I could have gone for more. Probably my favorite was the lamb curry. The meat wasn't gamey and was tender, and the curry itself was really good, well seasoned with a complex flavor that I come to expect of curries. Service was cool. We didn't have any problems per se. My only real quip I had with the meal was the extra charge for rice. At first we didn't realize it was going to be an extra charge, but when she asked us how many orders, we realized it was extra for rice. I mean, seriously? Who doesn't eat curry with rice? It's understood that rice will be eaten with curry, so why be an a-hole and charge extra for rice? Ugh.... My next quip was that for the portions, even though everything was pretty good, were the prices. Between the 2 of us, after tip and everything, lunch cost about $50. I would expect that price for maybe dinner, but not lunch. If the prices were better, I might come back, otherwise, I'm just gonna go to Thai town. read more

I couldn't believe the portion size when I received my delivery, which is why I'm just leaving 3 stars in addition to the flavor saving the day. The portion size is very small compared to other Thai places I've frequented, but the worst part was the presentation of the food! I couldn't believe it, there were 3 chunks of potato, a few chunks of carrot, and 2 pieces of chicken! Did your cook get lazy Pink Pepper? I ordered the yellow chicken curry and luckily the flavor was good which is why you get 3 stars. Not sure I'll try again, there are too many Thai restaurants in my area with good portions and better presentation of food. read more

Came here for a birthday celebration with some yelpers - Ed A, Nelson F, James S, Bridget P, JR C, Andre N, Phillip N, and the fiance for MY birthday! FOOD: Chicken Larb - salad - pretty good. Got it level 8 spicy but it was NOT spicy at all. :/ But the flavors were really nice! Tom Yum Goon: She actually told me a lot of Thais order this and so I figured, ok! Let's order it and it was REALLY good. Not spicy but SO good. This is good here. Beef Salad - I don't eat beef Curry Salmon - she said a lot of Thais order this so I ordered it and it was good. Not spicy again, but good flavors. Panag Curry: My favorite - it was alright. It wasn't spicy... :/ I need my own level. Pad Thai Chicken - pretty standard. Drunken Noodles - Mmmmm MY FAVORITE. :D SERVICE: Excellent service from Tiew! She was SO sweet! Very attentive and patient with me when asking her lots of questions. We brought our own drinks and they let us drink it with a $8 charge? I don't remember but if you bring your own, you will get charged. My friends brought me a cake and it was no charge from the restaurant (some places charge you). PARKING: Structure in the back - free with validation. THANKS: To everyone who went! Thanks so much for the wonderful memories! I loved it!!! :D OVERALL: It's not bad. Come by. read more

Beep. My text from last night: "We're going to get take-out from Pink Pepper. What do you want?" I quickly scanned the reviews. Hmm, they're rather unhelpful with only a few people mentioning specific dishes. I reluctantly texted back my standard Thai order (it's good to have a baseline, right?). "Pad thai with chicken and shrimp. Plus angel wings." Yeah, so I'm not an adventurous Thai food eater which is fine as I have a mostly hateful relationship with Thai food anyway. I went to pick it up and it was around $45 for my order, yellow curry with chicken, Pink Pepper rolls and prik king with extra beef. I didn't try anything but my own food. Portion size- rather small. But I liked the semi-reusable containers they came in. Angel wings- decent size, packed with the usual nummy meat and noodles. Every now and then, I got a crunch of water chestnut. Two in an order for about $7 (pricey). Pad Thai- uggh, this stuff was all gummed up in the container. I didn't want to eat the whole thing but was forced to as I couldn't pry the noodles apart. It was just one big noodle then. Chicken pieces were small and there were only two shrimp. Is it the best place for Thai? Nah, probably not though I didn't try what I now know I should have gotten- their duck. And I might go back as it is rather nicely decorated with an outside (enclosed) patio in addition to the dining room. The cashier was nice enough to offer to see if they had an order of egg rolls we could sneak off with when we thought we should add to our order. Otherwise, it would have taken an additional 15-20 minutes for egg rolls (why this long, I don't know). read more

This place use to be AMAZING! Seriously! I would go here ALL OF THE TIME! such good quality, great portions... Now, now its a piece of TRASH! If you are one of the lucky ones, youll dine in,.. because if you get the take-out, its discussing. You know when you bite into certain foods and there is like sand particles or grit? Do you like that? Well if so, feel free to order from this place. The pink pepper rolls were AMAZING 2 years ago. Now, its made with not so fresh ingredients, thrown together , and they like to tell you LIMIT 6 per customer, like they are special. WRONG The orange chicken was GREAT, until they had a chef change. All of the sudden, its soggy, and then a found a HAIR in it. You know that feeling. Completely disgusted and couldn't finish my meal. The people that run the place have no concept of patrons, all they care about is the bottom line. Wont be much of a bottom line if they keep turn out crap like this. So long pink pepper, so long. read more

I can see how, if you are a spicy food fiend, you might be disappointed here. But for freshness of ingredients and subtlety of flavor, Pink Pepper is surprisingly satisfying. Surprising not only because of the lukewarm Yelp average, but because of the complete lack of other customers on a Monday night at 6:30. Our table of six ordered spicy shrimp salad, a whole BBQ chicken, spinach and mushroom stirfry, vegetable spicy noodles, and catfish curry. The shrimp salad was, well, it was lemongrassy. I love lemongrass and will happily take it on anything. If you don't, don't order this dish. My mom was like, "what does this remind me of?" and I was like "those single-wrapped moist towelettes" and she was like, "YEAH, THAT!" but I seriously didn't mean it as a diss. I like the taste of the smell of moist towelettes, i.e. lemongrass, and I'm proud of it. Also, the shrimp was really fresh, which helped. The BBQ chicken was very tender, but a little sweet for my tastes and I wish they had left on more of the skin. You definitely do not need to use the sweet and sour-like sauce they provide unless you prefer your chicken to taste like candy. I much preferred the curry salmon, a very coconutty rendition with tender fish, and the spicy noodles, definitely not the best version I've had but still satisfyingly wok-charred. I'm in between 3 and 4 on this one, but I'm feeling magnanimous because A) they bombarded me with two of my favorite flavors, coconut and lemongrass, B) they cooked everything exactly right, and C) I'm writing this slightly delayed from Seoul, South Korea, and as such, this will be my last Yelp review for a couple months, seeing as how Yelp has for some reason not expanded operations to any Asian countries (hint hint, Yelp). Until then, dear reader(s)! read more

I've passed by this place a few times on my way to Tiago and always wondered what kind of delectable delights were hidden in this place. Wandered in one night in the mood for a Thai adventure and I was instantly won over by the decor. The restaurant was immaculately decorated with beautiful rose gold hues that gives you a feeling of warmth and romance. I sat down and although I noticed green curry on the menu, I couldn't help but notice the poached curry salmon trying to seduce me. I had to have it. Likes: 1. Decor - it gets the vibe just right. Not trendy or cheeky or cheesy. I think it makes a great date restaurant. There is outdoor seating and indoor seating available with booths and tables. I noticed that there were 2 booths that appear to be more cozy and intimate than the rest. I suggest you use those on date-night. 2. Food - the poached salmon was the bomb. The first bite literally melted in my mouth. The portion was large enough for sharing, which is again... great for date purposes. 3. Dessert - they have sticky sweet rice with mango available seasonally. Unfortunately, this was not the right season. Good thing they still had green tea ice cream and coconut ice cream available though. I opted for the coconut, and I would have to say it was the perfect finish to a meal. Light, mildly sweet to cleanse the palate... with a portion just large enough to satisfy but not overwhelm. Dislikes: 1. Bar. It is not a full bar. The drink menu is all they have to offer. I ordered the lemon drop, and delicious as it was... it didn't even make me blush. Things worth noting: 1. Free parking is available... validated I think. Where? I have no idea. I walked there. 2. No take Discover Card.... curses! Foiled again! Fantastic food experience hands down. It's just the weak-sauce drinks that knocks down the rating from a 5-star to a 4-star. read more

Mediocre overpriced Thai food in the most highly concentrated tourist trap area of Hollywood. Portions are very small for the price, service is dismissive and rude. The ambiance here is nice-good lighting, spacious, and well lit patio. They serve beer and wine. The menu includes a good amount of vegan options, but my vegan option was not good. I got the soy sauce noodles ($9.95), which was a very small portion for the price-appetizer size. The noodles were overcooked and very oily. The flavors were overall okay, and the tofu was very tasty. However, I would not order this again. With so much incredible Thai food in LA, Pink Pepper needs to step up their game. All credit cards accepted. read more

I have been to almost all thai food restaurants around this area (Thai town restaurants/Thai Foon/Toi On Sunset/Sanzab/Kinaree Thai Bistro) this is by far the worse Thai restaurant. I am not sure if I can even call it Thai food at all! I ordered at dinner time for Beef Green Curry $9.95, and tofu Mixed Vegetable $8.50 to go. Both dishes did not come with rice. I thought they forgot so I call them to see they maybe forgot to include the rice, guess what. the guy on the phone told me those didn't come with rice and most of the thai restaurant around this area didn't serve curry with rice. I can't believe they just lied and thought I was some kind of idiot. Who eats curry without rice? So i just drink them? What a joke! The food taste is nothing special. It tastes just like every other Thai restaurant with higher price and smaller portion. What a shame. Charge so much but neither the portion nor the taste came even close to its price. Whoever think this is the best thai food restaurant around the area I would suggest you try those thai restaurants in thai town or Sanzab (just few block away) before they make such statement. This is definitely NO NO NO way. All the thai restaurants around this area are CHEAPER than this one and ALL serve curry with rice. I won't be back there again. read more

When I checked out their website I loved that they offer online ordering. They have a great menu and online ordering is easy to navigate. When I finished my order the estimated delivery time was 30-45 minutes. This place is only a couple of blocks away from where I lived and I figured it would arrive within the hour as I'm used to Thai places not providing the fastest deliver service. An hour later when my food had still not arrived I called to see how things were coming along and got an answering service on the first two calls. The third call however was answered and I was informed they were still preparing the meal and I could expect it in a half hour. (I'm pretty certain they had not started it yet.) The curry was soupy, they added jasmine rice that I did not order and the pad Thai didn't taste right. They also sent iced brewed tea instead of the Thai iced tea that I had ordered. No utensils or napkins were provided. I'm really not sure how this place is rated so well on here. Maybe its better if you eat there and they just suck at delivery but I will not be ordering from this place again. If anyone knows of a good Thai delivery restaurant in the Hollywood area please let me know. *almost begging* read more

Hands down best thai food in LA. Been eating here since 1992! Seen them go through some changes some really good (redecorating) some not so good (service in house and delivery has had it's ups and downs, and portions have gotten about 30%smaller with prices getting about %15 higher). I think it's a great place to take a date...sort of. The restraunt itself is nice. The area directly around it can be a little gross depending on what bums have been sleep in the nearby alleyway etc...you get the idea. Food wise, you can't go wrong....everything is really good, although I recomend the pad si yu, pad thai (is freaking awesome), and the BBQ beef ribs (also freaking awesome), and the eggrolls...their sweet and sour sauce is the best I've ever tasted. So, I take away one star for the little ups and downs, but foodwise (portions aside) they have never made me a bad tasting dish, I've never been food poisoned here, and I've never tasted thai food anywhere else that can top the pink pepper. read more

I never like to say anything bad about a restaurant. But this one was a big let down. We had a 12:00 reservation on Open Table. We were on time and seated immediately. She didn't check me on Open Table, so I didn't get my Open Table credit. Our server took our order and our food was brought to us quickly. And that was pretty much the extent of the experience. I ordered spicy fried rice with shrimp. The shrimp was large and beautiful. However, they were also tasteless. And there was no spice to the rice. I did enjoy the coconut shrimp I ordered. It was a large portion, full of mushrooms and chicken. It was as tasty as any I had ever had. My husband had BBQ chicken. I found it to be dry and lacking flavor. It was served with a tiny amount of sweet dipping sauce. My husband's entree came with a salad. It was very fresh lettuce with a flavorful ginger dressing. I enjoyed it. My biggest complaint with Pink and Pepper was the service. After receiving our food ( I chose to dine on the patio) we weren't checked on again. A huge influx of diners came to order and pick up to go food. There were only a few other tables actually dining in the restaurant. The to go people consumed the restaurant. We were actually in the restaurant for well over an hour. I waited at least 25 minutes just to get my check. After getting the check, I waited another 15 minutes for the server to get my credit card. If I'm in the area again, I might get a to go order, but I would never dine in again. read more

What a totally disappointing experience. This place came highly recommended from a friend and we looked forward to trying it. We arrived at about 10 PM. The atmosphere was nice, the hostess pleasant enough. I had a question about a food ingredient (I can't have wheat, barley, or rye), and the waitress simply said "I don't know." We asked if she could ask the cook, and she said "....no. Sorry.". I looked at her shocked, and she said "Ok, ok I'll check." Shocking to hear that she never did, right? Rude. So, so rude. When the appetizer ("Angel Wings") finally came out, it looked burned and, well, gross. My friends ate a couple bites, but couldn't bring themselves to finish it. "The worst angel wings I've ever had," they said. Our drinks were empty by this point, but no one had checked on us in quite some time. We looked over to the corner and saw the entire wait staff sitting in a booth, eating and gossiping. Lovely. The food arrived. I had a pineapple chicken mixed curry dish. Our friend had the squid salad. My boyfriend had red curry, which looked delicious. I could not taste any pineapple in my curry. I only tasted yellow curry and chicken - despite there being some visible pineapple and other vegetables in the concoction, I couldn't taste anything else at all. Our friend's squid salad was almost entirely comprised of coriander, and my boyfriend's red curry was completely flavorless. I don't think any of us bothered to finish our dishes. Then we waited some more. And waited. And waited. The wait staff were again in the corner, eating and gossiping. Irritated at this point, we waved them down and said we'd been waiting for the check. We got the "OK, give me a minute" signal from our waitress. Ten minutes later, our check came out. We gave exact change. A first for all of us. read more

This place has gone to shit. After an hour of no food I called to track it down and was placed on hold and they never came back. Called again, same thing. Called a 3rd time, asked them not to place me on hold. This time they finally told me that my food had not yet left the restaurant, and that if I wanted it it would be another half hour, so 1.5 hour wait for food total. Shit happens, but shouldn't they call and tell you when it is this late? Now I am late for an event, starving, and Pink Pepper is out $50. Thank you Pink Pepper, for making everyone lose. read more

Tonight marked my third visit to this hidden treasure. I've driven right by it for years and never knew it was here. For starters, you must try the spicy wonton appetizer. One of the best things I've ever tasted. I'm also a huge fan of their yellow curry, teriyaki chicken, and brown rice. You simply can't go wrong! There's indoor and outdoor dining. Service is excellent! They're very attentive without being annoying. Your glass will never be empty, but you also won't have someone asking you if everything is okay after every bite you take. You know the kind, right? Like where you just want to throw your silverware and tell them your meal would be a lot better if they would just leave you the hell alone. You won't find that nonsense here. You must put this place on your list! read more

The restaurant has good food, but when I drove in to the parking lot tonight I was greeted by a hand written sign saying "no validations", this happened even though the neon sign out front indicated free parking. I was told by the receptionist that they ran out of "Validations" and that I had to pay $15.00 to park! Guess I will not be going to this place again - too many other restaurants in the city where I don't get this treatment. Save your money and find another free parking restaurant! Or at least one that honors their posted policies! read more

I came here quite a bit... My friend introduced me to the place as he was a frequent flyer. We used to live in different parts of LA- West LA and USC, but we'd still come out to Hollywood to go to Pink Pepper. Now he's moved closer to Sunset blvd in downtown, so I'd imagine we'll be vising quite often. We always get the Salt and Pepper Garlic Tofu entree. That might not be what it is called exactly, but it is amazing! The decor is understated and soothing, like a Thai massage parlor- tones of brown and black and gold. We like this little booth on the right side of the restaurant that barely fits two people. Secluded and cozy. Once, we decided to go to Pink Pepper and parking was horrendous that night. We parked all the way on Hollywood and Highland (one of the huge parking structures), walked 2 blocks, and then I got stuck on the phone with work. By the time I walked in, my friend had ordered food and was done eating half, and we had to leave so that I could go back into the office. (This was at 10PM) Not the best story- and one that would leave sore memories, but I still really like Pink Pepper and would go back in a heartbeat. read more

I came here for dinner with some girlfriends. It was yummy! The highlights were the papaya salad, chicken curry and crab fried rice. You can taste the crab in the fried rice! Oh and the lemon drop martini is super good. You cannot taste the alcohol, which can be a good or bad thing, lol. This place is literally right next door to a club called MyHouse, on the corner of Hollywood and La Brea, you can't miss it. Parking is right behind the restaurant, read more

I've checked-in and eaten here eight times prior and it took me this long to figure this out. If the dish has a asterisk next to it and you don't want it spicy, be very clear with them what you want. Say "no spice" don't say "mild." Otherwise mild is still pretty spicy. I think "mild" to them means they won't add "extra" spice. TONS of red chili pieces in my dish. I ended up not eating most of my meal. I learned my lesson for next time. read more

Pink Pepper - Thai Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've known this place for years and I love their food. This place is right in the heart of Hollywood at walking distance of the most popular tourist attractions. If you are a tourist and you want to avoid the typical chain restaurant that is visible from the tourist attractions, go around the corner to find this gem. On the other hand, if you are a local and you are driving to this place. Good luck with parking, you will need it. My favorite is the yellow curry chicken. Staff is nice although sometimes they don't pay attention to refills. read more

They charged my card yesterday on New Year's Day online, I waited an hour and a half for my food, called and got a message they were busy and couldn't pick up the phone, drove down there, and saw they were closed. I just called to tell them what happened and they weren't apologetic, did nothing to make up for inconveniencing me and lost a regular customer. There are a million Thai places in town and this one's over priced. They're bad people. read more

First let me say that the food is good. It isn't the best Thai Food I've ever had for instance they use American broccoli instead of Chinese broccoli which bugs me but the food is palatable. Now let's get to the reason for my low starred review. The service here is pretty Shitastic... I've been here several times because it is close to work and convenient and every time I am here the servers are panicked and annoyed by the presence of diners. To avoid this experience I decided to pick up instead. I was still met with annoyance for my presence. I order through Yelp which uses The Eat24 platform and the hostess/server/cashier was very confused by this. She found my order after giving her my name a few times and brought my food. Which was already prepared even though I was 10 minutes earlier than the time I was given. She then printed the receipt and asked me to sign. I was like oh wait don't you want me to pay I chose to pay by cash or? She looked at the printout which across the counter I could see said cash in a bold square box and was confused. I stand there with my $20 bill and she finally says oh okay and takes it from me. There was no thank you for not stealing your meal. There was no "my bad" as the young kids say (they no longer say that) what I did receive was annoyance that I was paying in cash. To end this pleasant experience I asked for chili sauce so you can all pretty much infer how that went... So I mean you won't be disappointed in the food but you'll be annoyed by the attitudes. read more

I miss the Pink Pepper. I used to work down the street from this delicious Thai restaurant. My co-workers and I would either get Pink Pepper delivered or eat at the restaurant weekly, and I never got sick of it. The Chicken curry poured over brown rice is a winning combination. Pair that with a Thai iced tea, and you're set. I also like the Spicy Beef salad, and you can never go wrong with the egg rolls. The Lunch Specials are a great deal and come with a tasty salad. I'm taking off one star for unbearably slow service, and an unforgettable visit to the restaurant when my friend's foot fell through the floor. To their credit they did some renovating to the restaurant after this incident and improved the conditions, but at the time they did nothing to compensate him for the mishap. read more

The service is a little, er, awkward at best... but the atmosphere is relaxing and the food is SOOO GOOD! So I am totally willing to put up with it! Planned on going to an improv show just down the street, so naturally, I looked on Yelp for some ideas and came across Pink Pepper Thai. When we first walked in to the mostly empty restaurant, as I looked at the dimmed lighting, the ultra-mod touches throughout accented with the not-so-discrete Thai and Buddhist art pieces, I thought we had made a huge mistake. I thought to myself, "A place that spends this much energy on looks couldn't possibly serve anything good." I was DEAD WRONG! We ordered Spicy Noodles (like Pad Kee Moa) with Shrimp and Red Curry with Chicken. Unlike some places that skimp on the spice, the Spicy Noodles were very flavorful and VERY spicy. The Red Curry was also very impressive, but my heart lies with those Spicy Noodles! YUM! Also, the presentation of the food was also very simple and elegant; adds a nice extra touch of sophistication to your dining experience. My bf and I were able to enjoy a very filling dinner for less than $30 here (including $8 corkage). Definitely a keeper in our book, especially since it's so close to the improv show we plan on attending regularly! One more thing: I noticed Pink Pepper Thai had received a B rating; obviously, "B" stands for BEST b/c everyone knows the best food comes from those holes in the wall that receive B ratings from the Dept of Public Health! read more

I have ordered a number of times from this restaurant and work two blocks away - At first I liked their food and their service but I have been disappointed in their service the last few times! I waited for two hours for food that I had ordered. On top of that, they promised the food would be here soon after. When I got my food half of the order was missing and was left at the restaurant....instead of a speedy solution, they took ANOTHER HOUR to deliver the food they mistakenly left behind. I am so disappointed in their customer service and their lack of problem solving by the restaurant's management. read more

Always the most incredible food and fast delivery. Can not go wrong with this place! And I've been to Thailand so I'm hard to please! :) (I order from these guys weekly at least!) read more

The Pepper's location is perfect for escaping Hollywood Blvd. while still kicking it near the walk of fame. Service was passable, standard Thai food, and relaxing atmosphere. We were the only ones dining on a Saturday afternoon and after entering through the patio gate Ho-wood kinds of melts into the background. Our waiter wafted by the table several times through the meal to do his modicum service-wise. I went with the cashew and roasted chili tofu, it was labeled spicy. Did it end up bringing the spice? A bit: there was a mild heat by the end of the dish, but no "my-mouth-is-on-fire-water-isn't-doing-jack" reaction. The kitchen was generous with the cashews and the extra sauce could be sopped up with the brown rice. (FYI: you gotta pay for a side of rice, but at least there's the option of going with jasmine or brown.) The Tofu Delight starter was fried triangles of the stuff served with a sweet dipping sauce. This didn't overwhelm me, but the tofu was crisp without being soaked in oil. More crushed peanuts please! Overall the comida at the Pepper tends to tread on average territory, but if you need to be near tourist-central this is a great reprieve within walking distance from the masses and exorbitant prices of Hollywood/Highland. I particularly liked that you had to enter an al fresco courtyard area through a carved wooden gate. High five to PPTC for having veg items on the menu (and I mean real veg items, not that hidden fish/shrimp-sauce BS some places try to sell you). read more

It's not bad for being a Thai restaurant outside of Thai Town, but it's the kind of place I would eat at for convenience, but never go out of my way to eat there. We happen to be in the neighborhood and there are not many choices within walking distance that seemed ideal. The food is definitely catered for the white clientele, and doesn't feel very authentic. Tom Yum lacked the flavor that it should have. The curry was a little on the watery side. Everything was ok, but nothing exceptional. read more
