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.

THE PREVIOUS REVIEWEES MUST NOT HAVE EATEN AT THE SAME PLACE I DID...IT'S VERY GOOD!

by mbfn

I don't know where some of the other reviewers ate, but everytime I've been here the food has been great and the service very good. It's always busy especially in the evenings, and if someone was expecting a really high end restaurant maybe that's why they were disappointed because it's not that kind of place! It's great for reasonable priced meals, nice neighborhood spot that's good for meeting a friend or family outing that doesn't cost an arm and leg.....which should be very important these days! I've had various dishes and liked every one of them!!

  • Pros: CLOSE TO HOME, EASY TO FIND, QUICK SERVICE
  • Cons: NONE

Used to be good, now they got a 'B' from the Health Dept. and I am gone.

by GarySimmons

There is no excuse not to get an 'A', its not that hard. They got a 'B' from the Health Dept. and at night, they used to take it down to hide it from customers. I no longer eat there. There are better places in Santa Monica.

  • Pros: Its close
  • Cons: They got a 'B" from the Health Dept.

Never again. Terrible service, mediocre food

by chefeclaire

I only ordered two things, so I can't give an extensive review, but unless i ordered the two worst things on the menu, I can't imagine anything else there is worth going for. The spring rolls were greasy, the filling totally bland, and the dipping sauce cloying sweet. The squid salad looked like it was made with week old lettuce and the vinaigrette was way too sugary and not at all spicy. The squid itsself was tender, but should have been cold in a salad and was warm, wilting everything around it.

The service was TERRIBLE. My waitress didn't come to my table once, was on her cellphone the whole time, and I had to get up three times to ask for more water. I don't think I've ever left a zero tip until today, but there was no way I was paying for her "service" while she yakked on her cell and ignored me.

Try Toi down the street. WAY better food, service and atmosphere. I would never go to Thai Dishes again or recommend it to anyone.

  • Cons: serivice, food
