    After an early morning hike my friends asked if I wanted to have some breakfast. When I was asked if I was interested in a Thai breakfast I was super interested. I've never had Thai food other than the typical dishes everyone knows. Located in Thai town Siam Sunset is a small shop connected to a motel structure. Its really easy to miss. Again, I've never had or even heard of Thai breakfast items so this was a total treat for me. We ordered several items on the menu like rice porridge, kai grata, chinese donuts and others. Shortly after we arrived more people started to show up so coming in early was a good call. The restaurant is cash only so come prepared. Parking: Street metered VERDICT: Rinse and repeat

    Fried Mussel Pad Thai Chicken Noodles Chicken with Green Bean with Thai Hot Chili

    This is a restaurant that is truly no-frills. We came on a Friday morning for late breakfast/early lunch, and upon walking in we saw so many older Thai-speaking people ordering their regular breakfasts and socializing. For our group of 5, we ordered a lot because we were excited. We got three of their special beverages, we had to pay for bottled water otherwise. The selection of fried rices, noodle dishes, and curries was wider than most other places in LA. The server was helpful in making sure we had a balanced meal of carbs, meat, and veggies. Food came out fast. We were not bothered while we ate, we just asked for additional sharing plates, which was great for our group to chat and share the dishes. Cash only, but there's an atm on-site. We did street parking, which was easy on a Friday morning.

    Catfish with Chili Curry a la Carte
    Samantha B.

    Had lunch here a few days ago for the first time... The restaurant feels very homey and has authentic food items!! We got 2 items, the catfish and Siam Sunset Noodle. Not a lot of people talk enough about the catfish, which I believe was the star item. The fish had a moist texture, and its thick chili curry sauce elevated the spiced flavor it carried. Service was very friendly and had attentive staff. Food was quickly served on a hot plate. :) Dishes had reasonable prices. Would come back again...

    Good for Breakfast, Open early in the morning at 6 a.m. I really recommend menu, Pork blood soup, Hainan Chicken over rice, Porridge and Chinese Donut (in Thai style) and more in the menu ... It's GOOD service, very nice and clean place.

    The price is extremely high considering the small portion size, and the taste is no longer as delicious as it was back when the owner was the older gentleman. This order for togo 18$

    decided to try this spot for some juk after some morning cravings. despite the rugged look of the building, the service is welcoming and the food was prepared instantly. i was looking forward to ordering some you tiao for the juk but it seems as if they were sold out already. do note that this place only accepts zelle or cash!

    10/10 place. This food is the best thai food I have ever had!! This is true comfort thai food, something your mom would make. Taste of nostalgia. If i'm ever in LA again, I am coming here again for sure. The service-, waitress was so nice and accommodating to us. Made sure we got good parking :)

    Boat noodle
    Sanny C.

    $2.50 for soy milk with like 3 toppings in it (tofu skin, barley and clear boba) !!! Yummy!! Ginger tofu wasn't that great. The ginger soup was good but the tofu was not silky enough. Boat flat noodle was ok. It was a bit salty and it was lacking something that I can't think of. Maybe it was a mix Thai Chinese restaurant so it didn't have the authentic Thai boat noodle flavor? I dunno Crab meat noodle was one of my fav because there was so much crab in it. Also, the egg noodle was so good. The only downside was TOO MANY SHELLS in the noodle. Gotta be very careful eating this. You don't want to choke or injure yourself with bits of shells. Therefore, I won't be ordering this again. Overall, food was good and service was good as well. Restroom avail outside the restaurant Restaurant looked small on the outside but pretty big inside.

    Discovered Siam Sunset via an Eater article, and I'm very happy that I did! It was an excellent recommendation. We decided to get lunch takeout from here yesterday and it did not disappoint. We ordered a variety of dishes, and each was delicious and flavorful. I would definitely come back. The menu items I got to try included the Hainan Chicken, Roasted Duck Curry, Roasted Duck Noodle Soup, and Spicy Pork Basil. My favorites were the Hainan Chicken and Roasted Duck Curry. The restaurant itself was very busy when I arrived, which is a good sign. After trying the food, I know why!

    Pork Blood Soup
    Debbie K.

    Authentic Thai flavors. Plenty of options to choose from. Opens early so it can also be a great breakfast spot. Service and food came out pretty fast.

    Came for a weekday group lunch. When we sat down they only offered us the regular menu. We had to…read moreask for the lunch menu. SMH. 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. Parking is metered parking or paid lot.

The rice was piping hot and the mangos were sweet and soft, drizzled with a generous serving of sweet coconut milk. Personally, the rice was a bit too soft for me and the coconut milk was a tad too sweet, but it still scratched the itch I had for mango sticky rice. I went close to closing so the staff could only offer me takeout, which was fine. They were friendly both over the phone and in-person when I picked up my order. I'm only dinging it a point because of its high(er) price point. I would be down to go back again to try out their entrees next time though!

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.

I can't believe it's been 12 years--and I'm so happy to say it was every bit as incredible as I remembered. My friend and I came for lunch. I ordered the vegetable pho, and she had the curry rice. Both dishes were absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, comforting, and beautifully prepared. Honestly, I wish we had more time because we had another appointment downtown. I would have loved to try more dishes and definitely dessert! Our server was wonderful--friendly, attentive, and incredibly professional. He checked on us at just the right moments without ever feeling intrusive. The service was as impressive as the food. The restaurant has such a warm, relaxing atmosphere. I especially loved the beautiful ceramic water cups with bird designs--they were so unique and charming. Even the water tasted wonderful! I'm thrilled that Au Lac is still thriving after all these years. If anything, the food tasted even better than I remembered. I certainly won't wait another 12 years before coming back. In fact, I was so impressed that I convinced my husband to come with me next Saturday for dinner! I've tried many vegan restaurants over the years, and Au Lac remains my absolute favorite. My favorite on the Westside is Variable Café, but if you're willing to drive a little farther, Au Lac is on another level. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Whether you're vegan or not, this place is truly outstanding. Five stars without hesitation!

The Asian gentleman with a crew cut/short hair was the rudest waiter I've ever experienced. My friend and I got there at 12:30PM before a show at the Walt Disney Concert Hall on Sunday at 2 PM- it took 20 minutes for them to take our order. We let them know that we had a show to go to and to just bring the food as it was ready. It took 45 minutes for our first dish to arrive. INSANE, WHEN THE RESTAURANT WAS EMPTY AND DEAD. Then we heard the Asian waiter telling off the other table next to us who was also going to the same show at Walt Disney Concert Hall. They came earlier than us, ordered first and still didn't even get their dishes before us. They told him to take it off the bill if the food didn't come in time since they didn't have time to eat it. I was shocked to hear the rude waiter telling that table "You should have told us that you were going to a show and that you were in a hurry".. WTF, like in this economy- we're paying to go to a sit-down restaurant to get treated like garbage??? My friend and I barely had time to eat and we took our leftovers. This was the first time I tipped 15% in YEARS and I wish I tipped nothing. We asked for bags since they just gave us boxes and then as we left He had the AUDACITY TO SAY "JUST SO YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT A FAST PACED CASUAL RESTAURANT" IT'S INSANE THAT YOU GUYS CANT EVEN DO LUNCH ON AN EMPTY SUNDAY WITHIN 2 HOURS. Go here, if you have nothing to do and want to get treated like garbage. I will never go here ever again. Maybe they just get business since this is the only vegan option in the area. Thank you for ruining a lovely Sunday afternoon because we couldn't even enjoy the show, all I could remember was how rude and smug that Asian waiter was. Please close this business. I'm shocked that Gordon Ramsay didn't show up to say that he was shooting this place for Kitchen Nightmares.

In fact, we had to order Fried Rice instead since we couldn't eat the noodles. The Pad See Ew was just okay. I'm disappointed as I really wanted my family to be blown away by the food and it didn't happen. Maybe the kitchen was having an off day. There's a small crowded valet parking lot right out front. We found street parking a few blocks away. Be mindful that it's in the east side of Hollywood, so it can be sketchy and dirty in the surrounding neighborhood.
