My family dined in on a Saturday and really enjoyed our lunch. The server was attentive, friendly, and patient with our toddler. The restaurant was clean with cute decorations; I really love the mom and pop vibe of the restaurant. Food here was excellent - very fresh and flavorful. We ordered way too much food including orange chicken, egg rolls, Thai fried rice, and wonton soup (the portions were unexpectedly huge). We had a ton of leftovers that tasted great over the next few days. I definitely plan to go back here and dine in again with my family. Delicious food and great service! read more

lovedddd the food here. Delicious beef drunken noodles, chicken Panang curry, pad Thai, and pork buns were absolutely divine. Service was fast and restaurant had ample seating and was spacious. My one complaint is the portion of the drunken noodle seemed much smaller than the other dishes and that was disappointing because it was soooo good!!! read more

Pretty average Thai food. I give 3 stars because I thought the flavoring on the noodles were a bit too sweet and very soupy at the bottom. A regular entree is around $15. They have $11 lunch specials Monday to Friday. Inside the restaurant is very small. We opted for take out. Service was friendly, place was dead on a Sunday night. read more

I used to come here a lot. I think they have new management now. Today I ordered 5 dishes. I was not very happy about it. First of all I ordered for the Thai Basil pork. (Stirfried ground pork on top of the rice with egg on top) They gave me spicy Basil pork. With lots of veggies. Second the beef Panang has only 6-7 slices of small thin beef slices. And most of it is just the soup. Third the pad prikingand their other dishes were mostly Vegetables very small amount of meat in it. 98%veggies and 2% meat. The taste is authentic Thai Food. It's taste is delicious, it was just disappointing that the dish is like $15 each and there's hardly meat in it. Overall I like the TASTE of the FOOD but very much disappointed on the amount of meat in each dish. When I called to complain about the mistake of the my order, the guy who answered my call politely took my name and number and said that maybe next time I go there they will give me a discount. (That was nice of him to offer that) Oh and the wait! 45 mins. For 5 dishes. There was only 1 table when I got there but after I ordered 4 more groups came in. The 2 after me got served first before me. . It was also not nice that they were served before me. Pretty much they ordered the same dish as mine ... It was really a disappointment. I think I'm going to come back there as a regular customer if they would make adjustments on the amount of Meat /protein they're going to put in each dish. read more

I'm sooo sad!! This used to be my favorite Thai spot. They always had great portion sizes and wonderful flavor. I got takeout tonight and noticed different staff. They were wonderful and super accommodating, but I think it changed ownership. The green curry (which was the best in Torrance) is now half the size it used to be and the most bland I've ever tasted. This is the first time I've not been able to finish a dish. Chicken Pad See Ew was also bland. Noodles were cooked well but had little flavor. The chicken could have been jerky considering how dry it was yet the carrots were still raw. The Tom Kha was the most edible out of the three. It was redeemed slightly by the lemongrass but still had very few of the traditional ingredients you usually see. It was mostly broth and unfortunately this is not enough to draw me back to Smile Thai. I'm so sad that to see this downturn in quality and quantity. Very disappointing. I hope the new owners adjust the flavors or cooks as needed. read more

They do not have lunch specials on weekends or special occasions. For dine in, the lunch specials are served with soup, jasmine rice and a green salad topped with crispy wontons. To-go lunch specials are served with an egg roll, jasmine rice and a drink. Lunch specials range in price from $15 to $17. Protein choices include chicken, tofu, beef, pork, crispy, chicken, shrimp, combo or seafood. Pork and beef are an extra $1, shrimp is an extra $2, crispy chicken chicken is an extra $4, seafood is an extra $7 and a combo of protein is an extra $5. My mom and I had lunch here on a Friday. She chose to get the Green Curry with chicken and I chose to get their Pad Khee Mao (Drunken Noodle) with chicken. Upon ordering, the waitress will ask about spice level. We both opted to go with mild. We were first served the lunch special soup. It was a tofu soup that was mild and light with a delicate broth. Soon after, our entrees arrived. My mom and I decided to share. First up was the green curry, which was mild but had a subtle kick. I loved that were generous with the creamy, flavorful green curry sauce. This was perfect over the jasmine rice. Next we tried the drunken noodles, which packed quite a punch despite us ordering it mild. The heat aside, I enjoyed the bold flavoring and the chewy, wide noodles. Last but not least was the green salad topped with crispy wontons. I really enjoyed the fresh greens and the golden wontons, and the sweet dressing drizzled on top was absolutely delicious! Overall, I enjoyed my lunch at Warin Thai. The restaurant is bright and clean, making it a great spot to dine in. The food was flavorful and the portions were generous. I found this to be a solid spot for my weekday Thai lunch fix and it was well worth the visit.

I do wish for a little more pork and pickled radish to match the rice's portion - but would 100% order this again cause it's THAT GOOD. I enjoyed the popcorn chicken combo. Crunchy, well-seasoned chicken, with more meat included instead of batter. The plate also had a heaping scoop of white rice and broccoli.

I used to come here all the time before the pandemic with family and friends and when I came back…read morerecently, I was sad to notice they were gone off Gaffey. I have moved since and don't come as much, but I happened to find them off google! The yelp reviews say it's the same spot so I can't wait to stop by. All I remember is that they were tasty and priced right before. Looking forward to supporting them soon!

Sushi was good, service was quick and they are very attentive and kind. We were greeted quickly. We…read morewalked into an empty restaurant before the rush. No complaints. The restaurant is a little dark, music wasn't too loud and the food came quickly. Smells like seafood when walking in but not that terrible lingering fishy smell. I also like the broad menu. Thai food or sushi!

We just want to try a new place since we just tried a new Thai Massage place…read more This place is a mix of indoor outdoor vibe. Clean. Food served in to go container . You get paper plate and there is a water station with utensils.

Must-Try Thai in the South Bay…read more I'm originally from LA, and after decades of eating across the best (and worst) of LA, and around the world, I've seen it all. The South Bay can be a tough crowd with some unrealistic expectations and some lacking experience. With that said, Spice & Spoon is the real deal. We've already gone twice in two weeks--and are going again. The Breakdown: * The Food: Authentic Thai home-cooking meets street-style. It's fresh, perfectly seasoned, and--thankfully--not a salt bomb like most places. The Crab Fried Rice and Chicken Skewers are excellent. * The Heat: The Curry has a beautiful, genuine kick. If you aren't used to spice, be warned; if you love it, you'll be thrilled. Otherwise, tell them: Mild, please. * The Vibe: It's spotless and the staff are genuinely sweet. In an area lacking high-quality options, their kindness and cleanliness are a breath of fresh air. The Verdict: Don't let "average" reviews fool you--this place actually earns it. If you've been hesitating, stop. It's fresh, fair-priced, and exactly what the South Bay needs. Go now so they stay forever!
