Best Khao Soi I've had in the states. They also have many other dishes that are very good to great. Nice outdoor setting. I have to give them 4 stars because of service. While the server was very friendly they were understaffed and service is slooow. I tend to like to eat fast and finish my meals quickly, so that is partly a me problem, but my brother also feels the same way. I would love to bump this up to five stars if they were able to increase their service staff just a little. Also, they are very cheap with napkins. read more

Siamese Garden - Sorry, I forgot to take a picture before we started pounding it. - Thai Near Me - Marina Del Rey, California

It was quiet on the patio and the server was very kind. We got spicy eggplant with beef and a tangy but milky seafood soup. Both were delicious & we finished with mango sticky rice that was really fresh mango. Super yummy would totally go again! read more

I only gave this place 3 stars because the service sucked. I had to ask for everything and the server took forever bringing it even tho there were only 3 tables occupied. If I have to wait forever on a slow day, I'm scared of what it's like on a busy day. It's a cool little restaurant tho with open indoor-outdoor type seating. The food was delicious. The tea was great as well. Would I try this place again? Maybe, but I will try another spot first. read more

Ordered the duck curry...asked for 0 spice. They couldn't get that right. The worst of it is there was only an oz of actual duck meat in there. Nice racket you're running there...the bad reviews will keep coming if you don't give customers what they want like a reasonable amount of protein with all the ample amounts of pineapple and chili paste.

This is a cute little spot near the Venice Canals. Easy to overlook as it's a bit tucked away and hidden. Good food, polite service, and al fresco dining. Would definitely return. read more

Wow! What an amazing experience! Every dish had the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and aromatic flavors. The Tom Ka soup was unforgettable. The staff made us feel so welcome, and the atmosphere was bright and relaxing. If you're looking for real Thai food made with love -- this is the place. read more

I used to love coming here on my 30-minute breaks when I worked in the area. The food is always hot and comes out fast, perfect for a quick but satisfying meal. I'm usually a bartop seat kind of person, and while they don't have a bar, the seating overlooking the Venice canals more than makes up for it. The setup is half indoors, half outdoors, with plenty of heaters to keep things cozy. Service is always friendly, and I think this is one of the better dining options on the block. read more

Food was good overall, however, the beef that comes with the pub Thai was almost impossible to chew and very grizzly. Once I set that aside, it made everything more delicious last of a drain on my jaw. The mango sticky rice was done well, and the angel chicken Was interesting and fun. Perfectly crispy, and mostly flavorful. I could've used a little bit more " salty" flavor, but having it with the sauce plus a little of the red hot sauce helped immensely. Chill ambiance and the service was great, however, I felt a little bit like I was being pushed out 10 minutes before they closed at 9:30. Still yummy fs! read more

Thought I try after a long time. Prices and addons are ridiculous. Palatable cuisine, but maybe at half the price, and even then. I don't know why I bother. Blah! Over sauced and seasoned. Many years back I refused to go because of the odor - maybe it came from the canal. read more

We were wandering around our neighborhood and came across Siamese Garden on Washington Boulevard. Since it's in such a touristy area, I didn't have high expectations, but honestly, I was really pleasantly surprised. The service was super attentive and kind, and the food was really good. The chicken satay was juicy, the peanut sauce was spot on, and pickled chili condiments were great (don't forget to ask for them). The spicy beef salad had a nice grilled flavor. Not too spicy thought. One downside: they don't have a full liquor license, so it's just beer and wine. I tried their Thai cocktail, and as expected, it was overly sweet and tasted like a premixed drink. I actually ended up running to get a little bottle of Bacardi from the corner store, added it to the drink with some lime, and then it finally worked. So yeah, I'd stick with beer there. But honestly, the food and service totally make up for it. I'll definitely go back if I'm walking by. read more

The food is probably "decent" for the area, but Siamese Garden is still the worst Thai food I've had in my life. Go over to Cerritos if you want more authentic tasting Thai food. Would definitely not return or advise a visit. read more

Food is good. Expensive. And the crab rice is boring. Truly no flavor. Other Thai places do it with more flavor. The problem is also the "a la cart" menu. We ordered a bunch of dishes and curries and it was delivered with not a grain of rice!!! Had we known we were paying all that price for food and not offered rice? Who eats curry without rice. No rice to be delivered even if we paid because they have no delivery person. Dinner for 4 basically ruined! Very let down. read more

The food is perception. The take out service is efficient. The ambiance is lovely. The only down side is parking. However, the servers will deliver food outside curbside as needed. read more

People are bagging on this place because it's not quite the same level of authenticity as you'd find in the best places in Hollywood, or in the Valley. But I think they're missing the point, as the food is about as good as you'd find picking a random-walk place in H'wood or elsewhere in the city - and it's in MDR. Plus, they have atmo to spare - not faux-Thai touristy, but a genuinely pleasant patio - as well as some unexpected treats (filet mignon satay! spicy catfish! pumpkin curry!) And while the spice levels are a little lower (ahem) than you'd get in, say, Chiang Rai, the food is fresh and the papaya salad is crispy. read more

My friend brought me here for lunch and it was surprisingly quiet! The restaurant has so much outdoor seating! We got the Tom Yum soup with a side of tofu and shrimp, Pad Thai (vegan way), and 2 Thai Iced Teas, mine was with 1/2 the sweetness. I was shocked at "1/2" sweetness, I couldn't imagine what the full sweetness would taste like!! Next time, I may ask for 1/4th! But I know it is meant to be sweet. I normally don't love Pad Thai but I LOVED theirs. It wasn't as tangy as other places I've tried and that's why I loved it so much. We got it with the soft tofu and it was so delicious. The Tom Yum was delicious! We mean to get the Tom Kha but not mad we got the latter instead - we had it with a side of fried tofu and side of shrimp and jasmine rice. The server was very friendly and attentive. We sat on the street side so sometimes it was harder to get his attention (rightfully so). Our dishes came out extremely quick! Will definitely be back again. read more

Very good option for Thai food in Venice! Great location on Washington Blvd, right near the end of the Venice Canals. Parking options along Washington and on the various side streets. Food - tried a few noodle dishes (pad see ew, pad thai), as well as some curry and the cashew stir fry. Everything was delicious! No complaints at all on the quality of the food, especially loved the curry. Service - no major complaints, but service definitely was a bit slow despite not being there at a very busy time of day. Food did take a little bit of time to come out to us. Ambiance - really peaceful, relaxing ambiance with a garden vibe and patio seating! Great for a dinner with friends or date night. read more

Great food and service. Nice atmosphere and fair prices. I've been here for lunch many times.

Just go here , and if you're with someone when you're there, try the banana desert. Highly recommend all of the curry's especially the pumpkin one with tofu. Be sure to order rice on the side, and either kind is tasty. All outdoor seating, with heaters, but wear layers just because you are in the south west. read more

Impeccable service with a beachy atmosphere that really did kind of make me feel as if I was in a southeast Asian beachside restaurant. Nothing to critique about the food. It was genuinely delicious. Some of the best thom kha soup we've had. Why? The coconut flavor was pronounced making the soup taste creamier than typical. Give me the cream baby! The pumpkin curry is worthy of a shout out. Flavor that made my tummy jump for joy. Tip: Get their purpose rice with the curry! Paired perfectly. read more

This is my favorite Thai restaurant on the west side but not in Los Angeles. I usually order to go, but it's nice when I go there being on the Venice canals. I just wish they get rid of that bird (if it's still there) that they keep in a cage. The curries are all good as is their pad see ew. I'm really surprised this place isn't rated higher as the prices are fair and food is good for Santa Monica / Venice Thai. read more

Memorial Day Weekend / Neighborhood Favorite: May 2023 Two friends & I were craving Thai food, so we walked over to Siamese Garden! There are numerous dishes on the menu that I love!

Beautiful flowers as well! Tom Kha Soup w/Veggies: Had me at hello & is my absolute favorite & sometimes has me coming back for days in a row...yum! I love the strong coconut flavor!! Thai Tea: Flavorful & sweetened to perfection! Drunken Noodles: Delicious, spicy & flavorful! I alternate between ordering with veggies or fried tofu, because I enjoy the crispiness of it all! Veggie or Tofu Panang: Strong, delicious flavor! Love the blend of spices, yum! I order with a side of rice! Pad Thai: It's a must, so flavorful! I alternate between having it w/crispy tofu or veggies! They always make it spicy just how I like it!! Mango Sticky Rice: Love it & reminds me of when I first tasted this sweet treat in Chiang Mai, Thailand & was immediately addicted! Friends recently stopped by this week, and surprised me with mango and sticky rice!! Dine In or Out: I enjoy both! Fresh open air during the day & elegant vibe at night w/tall, blazing heat lamps & beautiful flower... It's an elegant mood! Customer Service: Wildly friendly, attentive & plenty of smiles!

As a local in Venice Beach, I've walked by this Thai restaurant like 500x and kept meaning to pop in. I finally did, and it was Delicious! It does NOT disappoint. Ordered the green beans with tofu and brown rice. It was perfectly made and not overly salted. Our waitress was a sweetheart and funny to boot. I really had a wonderful meal here with friends. Enjoyed the gorgeous view of the Venice Canals this time of Year, when all the baby ducks are being born and waddling around. So darn cute! It's the ONLY restaurant that sits directly ON the Venice canals. Such a warm ambience, no frills, just great food, rustic views and that beach vibe, baby. From here it's like a 1.5 block walk to the beach. So you can have it all in one day. Or just stroll through the canals in the evening and smell the night-blooming jasmines. It's such a delightful, nature-filled experience, and it feels so good! Thanks for having me. I'll be back. read more

This place reminds you of a decent Thai restaurant you would find traveling in a random foreign country. We had the Pad Thai and fried rice. The food is decent but a bit too greasy and not quite perfect in terms of flavor -- there are way better Thai restaurants in LA. Everything is just okay here though, so in a pinch, it'll do. The service is prompt and the dining room is conveniently right next to the Venice canals so good for a post walk meal if you happen to be strolling around here. The ambiance is also very typical Thai resto in a random foreign country feeling. read more

Our server talked with a clear accent which I 100% approve of when I"m going to eat Thai food. The broth on the soup was amazing. I found the dishes full of spice and full of flavor and the prices are reasonable. I recommend going during the day to get a lovely view of the canal. I am excited to come back, read more

The Siamese Garden is nice cool little spot right of the Venice Canal. It has nice outdoor seating with heat lamps and a decent view. It did take little time for our server to get to us but the food did come out of the kitchen pretty fast. The Egg Rolls were really cooked great had a nice crunch and the sauce that came with it made it even better. The Filet Mignon was also really good might have been a tad over cooked was really hard to get off the skewer but it had great flavors. The Golden Curry was good but were it failed is it was to sweet. It missing a bit of the savory ness. Also I liked it spicy and it had a pepper on the side and it wasn't spicy at all. Overall an ok experience. 3.5/5 read more

I ordered chicken pho and a Thai tea to go. My order was ready within 10-12mins of me calling! The tea was standard, can't go wrong with Thai tea! The container that the broth and chicken was in is NOT functional for to go orders. You'll have to empty out a ton of the broth to put the noodles in the container. I didn't know this and so much of it came out upon adding my noodles. The broth wasn't super flavorful but it hit the spot. I'll definitely add some sriracha to it next time! The outdoor seating was adorable and would love to try more off their menu while dining in. read more

Once again as an airline Captain on layover, I frequent my favorite Thai restaurant in Del Rey. Siamese Garden is so absolutely wonderful I just have to purchase TWO curry dishes at the same time. Today I had Emerald Chicken & Golden Shrimp Curry dishes. I always choose to have mine made as spicy as they can!! SO SO GOOD!! Danny, my waiter always helps make it such a magnificent experience!! If you haven't tried any of the curry dishes yet you simply MUST get here!! Such a lovely deck in the sun too! read more
