In Short – The original Santa Monica location has been attracting loyal Westsiders since Day One, and its satellites--located from Pasadena to Redondo Beach--are also rousing success stories. The dining rooms are comfortable, the pace is brisk, and servers are congenial and efficient. This is a great spot for families and groups. If you're on the run, opt for takeout or delivery. Geared toward American palates, this Thai food is fresh, satisfying and not too spicy.

Thaidishes restaurant malibu
by sukachai
I have been there quite a few times. What can i say, i love the food there. All the pad thai and food are great there, although its on the pricey side but i think its worth the value. Really recommend anyone who want to have a romantic dinner (at least there where i took my gf).
Been also to the other one called Cholada on Malibu. The price their is ok but not unless you want to see 10 cockroaches flyng around. I accidentally walk back their one times and YAK!!!!!!!!!!!!. I think its been shut by the FDA quite a couple of times but they keep reopening it after 2months.
Anyway, i rather pay a bit more and doesn't get extra MEAT (cockroach) on my food.
Secret delicious Thai hideaway on PCH!! Friendly.

We've been going to Thai Taste for two years. It's on PCH in center of Malibu. We love the easy vibe and friendly service, great traditional thai food, always tasty. They don't rush you out the door, they let you talk and enjoy. They have this indoor fireplace/pit . And an outdoor patio but I stay inside to be cozy. We always have a simple glass of wine and split a couple of dishes. Good prices. They also deliver for a fee...and their delivery gentleman is the most distinguished guy! Hey we love it. .
- Pros: Friendly, great thai menu, cozy fireplace & outdoor area
- Cons: People might not realize it's there, somtimes quiet. try it
Just Awful Sushi
by brutusln
This is some of the very worst sushi in Los Angeles, rivaling even sushi from CVS pharmacy's refrigerated section.
As reference, I've eaten everywhere from Nobu and Nozawa to Midori and Ralphs.
I ordered Tuna sushi, yellowtail sushi and a spicy scallop roll. They were inedible. The sushi texture was that of fish that has been re-frozen several times. The flavor was that of old fish, not floral and sea-salt fresh. It was almost dry and mealy in texture! The spicy scallop roll had cashew-like pieces in it, which threw off the texture of this item entirely. The scallops did not taste fresh.
I paid my bill and left pleasantly as if nothing was wrong. As I pulled away in my car, one of the waiters came out, concerned, trying to flag me down because I didn't finish a single piece of fish on my plate. I just pulled away, embarrassed for them, and pretended not to notice.
I hate to write a review like this, but this food showed outright negligence. And considering LA is a sushi destination, a restaurant like this is just plain unacceptable.
- Pros: Large portions.
- Cons: Old fish; atrocious spicy scallop roll
Okay...all the bad comments may be true...

I know this chain from the old days in Hermosa Beach (on Hermosa Ave) when it was the best Thai place in town. I have eaten at the Malibu outpost in years past, but not within that last couple of years.
OMG, the service was sooooo terrible. Surly, slow (10 minutes to get a Diet Coke in a can), and ultimately my visit was unrequited by an actual meal. After sitting for 20 minutes, my waiter came and told me that they would not be able to serve me because the cook was busy with the health inspector. He just kind of shrugged his shoulders and walked away!
I give this two stars out of my memories of meals past, discounted by the frighteningly bad service.
I usually eat at Cholada Thai at Topanga and PCH, which is hands-down one of the best restaurants in the Topanga/Malibu area.
- Pros: My memories were not shattered by bad food
- Cons: Probably the most indifferent attitude from a server, ever.
Worst Thai food in Malibu
by jmd89
This is definately the WORST Thai food in Malibu and perhaps ever. I have eaten at many Thau restaurants throughout the U.S. and Canada. If Thai Dishes restaurant was the first Thai food I ever had I would never eat it again. The ambiance seems nice, but the food and service is HORRIBLE. I ordered Pad Thai and spring rolls to go. They came fast which was nice after surfing. But I got home there was no taste and the spring rolls were like eating a sponge, no taste. I called and indicated my dissapointment and they said it is good we always cook this way. Perhaps if they offered me something like a free dish or something to return. Well They lost my business. DO NOT risk going to Thai Dishes. I would highly recommend if you live in or near Malibu, and desire good Thau food to drive a few miles down PCH to Cholada Thai Beach Cuisine instead.
- Pros: Going to another Thai restaurant
- Cons: POOR SERVICE POOR FOOD TASTE AND QUALITY
