The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, and the customer service is honestly great. The staff is friendly and willing to recommend their favorite menu items if you're not sure what to order. I've been here twice, and both visits were about the same. The food was okay. It wasn't disappointing, but it also wasn't something that really stood out to me. I've had better vegan food at other places, so I left feeling somewhat neutral. It's a decent option if you're looking for vegan food in the area, and I still encourage others to give it a try because everyone's taste and experience can be different.

We will definitely be back.

Ordered dinner plate combo with chicken makhani and aloo gobhi with $1 upgrade to garlic naan…read more Portions were small, chicken makhani at this location isn't as good as the SD nor the Anaheim locations. It tastes the same, but it wasn't very saucey. They also gave me plain naan when I paid for garlic. I didn't know until I went home and opened the naan. Also, the naan wasn't fun to eat because it got hard and chewy in a span of about 15 min. I guess it's best to eat right away. I waited about 15 min for food to be ready. There was one other guest in the restaurant when I arrived, but there are a few tables for sit down. The restaurant has some bowls for bogo on uber eats/postmates so they spent most of their time packing those orders. Most likely won't come back to this location again.

For some reason, we weren't able to use the bathroom but we needed to wash our hands so the server brought soap, water, and a bucket for us to wash our hands so I appreciated that. He would also come to Our table to check in on us so overall awesome customer service Vibes: walking into the restaurant feels like you're visiting an Ethiopian family's house haha but with a welcoming vibe. The staff was watching Football with his friends/family while we were eating so it's a very interesting informal atmosphere. Also they had a lot of small sized circular table so good for small groups, but for big groups, you should call restaurant ahead of time to make that arrangement. The outside of the restaurant looked a little worn down, and all the buildings looked old, but I didn't really mind it. Parking: the plaza was kinda dead on a Sunday evening so there was plenty of parking

Renu Nakorn is known for their Northern Thailand dishes such as Issan Sausages and Khao Soi and it…read morewas the first home for Chef Saipin from Lotus of Siam in Las Vegas; however, over the course of time, management has changed hands at Nakorn. Central Thai dishes like Papaya Salad, Moo Ping, and Pad See Ew come in generous portions; however, I wouldn't say that Renu Nakorn serves the best versions of those dishes. I did like the Pad See Ew as the rice noodles have a really nice chew, the chinese broccoli offered nice freshness and crunch, and it came with good bits of meat and egg. Moo ping is a really tasty BBQ pork and the paired sauce is addictive; however, I would have loved more prominent grill/char flavor. Papaya Salad was missing the dried shrimps that give umami/savory/salty flavors that balance the dish. Don't miss the opportunity to get dishes from their "Northern Thai" menu as it's what they're really known for. Issan sausages are really nice as they offer uniquely savory, herby flavors. If you haven't had Khao Soi, the noodles in the yellow coconut curry are so delicious and the crispy noodles on top offer really nice textural contrast.

Before I discovered Thai Town, Thai Original BBQ in Cerritos and Renu Nakorn were my introductions…read moreto Thai cuisine. The former's food has somehow adapted to local tastes, while Renu Nakorn didn't (at that time). Has Renu Nakorn progressed since then? The last time I ate here was 25 years ago -- times were a lot simpler then, including the main road it's situated on. Present-day Rosecrans is now ribboned in freeway on-and-off ramps, backing Renu Nakorn into a smallish strip mall that is grungy, with limited parking. For starters, I was floored by how expansive its menu has become -- it now has the heft of a three-ring binder! Before, the menu was a laminated one-pager printed on both sides. We ordered familiar staples: Pad See Ew, Larb Salad, and Deep-Fried Trout. For the prices, I was gobsmacked at the morsel-sized portions of each dish! How did each taste compared to what I remember from 25 years ago? The Pad See Ew -- garlicky and peppery. There's a comforting crunch from the Chinese broccoli, but none of the smoky, caramelized char from a hot wok. The flat noodles were slippery from a sauce, which I found cloyingly sweet. The larb salad did not have the mint flavor and spicy punchiness I was looking for -- its flavors were muted. The deep-fried trout was at least acceptable -- I will forgive it for not being deboned. It was crisp and moist, but its tiny size relative to its "market price" of $28 made it difficult to enjoy. I glanced at other tables -- and most were ordering Fried Rice, and multiple orders at that. Has the hefty menu discouraged diners from venturing beyond the more familiar Thai offerings? Or was it simply the best value on the menu? Three basic dishes, portioned as appetizers, that didn't live up to fond memories, cost us $80 with just water. That warrants one star. I'd like to think that I have progressed in terms of understanding what "good" tastes like in Thai cuisine over the course of 25 years -- it seems to me that Renu Nakorn did not.
