What People Are Saying About Siam Best Restaurant

Featured Review

Lincoln Boulevard’s calm Thai eatery doles out all the classic Eastern delights like Pad Thai, Mee Krob, Pad See Ew, in addition to cream cheese wontons, papaya salad and a vast array of other choices stemming from the Orient like lemon chicken, kung pao tofu, BBQ pork spare ribs, chop suey and more. The reasonably priced delivery service is popular, but the eclectic interior--complete with fish tank--plays hosts to a devoted local Venice crowd.

like the Pad Thai

by xray89354 at Citysearch

My wife and I always go there and get basically the same thing. Pad Thai and Green Curry. We will sometimes try something different but when we go back it’s the Pad Thai and Curry.

Great ambiance - lousy food

by speakkkup at Citysearch

If you don't mind chewing on shoe leather described as honey duck, enjoy.

The Mongolian beef was not tasty either.

The service was mediocre and the manager (owner) was not accommodating when we explained that the meat was virtually unmanageable to eat.

He lost two customers, for sure.

  • Pros: Romantic setting, nice table decorations, soft lighting
  • Cons: Lousy food, so-so service

Bad food, bad service, bad everything!

by pongster at Citysearch

Both times that I have ordered here, I have been equally disappointed. First off, let someone who knows how to speak and understand English answer the phone and take orders. Also, it's not the customers' fault that you guys are busy and can't deliver someone's order until an hour and a half later. The first time I called, I had to repeat my address 10 times (no exaggeration!). When the food finally came, it was not at all what I expected. I had ordered pepper steak, but it turned out to be a tv dinner steak thrown into a water downed brown "sauce" with a few frozen vegetables thrown in. After that experience, I thought I would give them a second chance and maybe it'll be better. NOPE! I ordered at 7:12, called at 8:15 when my food still didn't come, spoke to some lady who didn't apologize but kept telling me how busy they were. Then she said they are leaving right now. They finally got to the apartment complex around 8:45 and called me to come open the gate for them. I told them that since they were able to come into the complex to drop their menus at everyone's door, they can come in to deliver my food.

Please, save your money and order from somewhere else.

  • Pros: none
