Mediocre to bad service with mediocre food. Although the ambience is quaint, that's about the only positive thing you can say about this place. The service is mediocre when you dine there, and when you call for delivery, they have about a 50% chance of being late with your order. It once took them an hour and half to deliver my order. The food itself is nothing to rave about. It'll do if you feel there are few choices and you are absolutely starving, but don't expect to be wowed. There's another much better Thai restaurant just once block west. Go there instead if taste and service is important to you.

Came late, not very good... at least it was cheap. We ordered from Greenview for delivery. Though we are only about a two and a half miles from the restaurant, our food arrived over an hour after we ordered (Sunday night at 8PM or so). We had the Chicken Pad Thai and the Mongolian combos, each $6.50 and including fried rice (in the traditional "big scoop" shape), an egg roll and a side salad.

None of it was particularly good. The Mongolian was passable, and the meat was of a mediocre quality. The Chicken Pad Thai was sticky and lacked in flavor. There was almost no chicken, and what chicken there was was very low quality. The fried rice was all but flavorless, the egg roll was not quite as good as what one would get from Panda Express, and the salad was nothing to comment on.

For delivery Thai in the area, Thai Fresh is better than Greenview. They're similar prices, both very cheap, but Thai Fresh is better.

If you're going to go out or are looking for really good Thai, maybe try Natalee Thai on Robertson or Venice. It's a couple miles farther away, but the taste difference is significant without being too much more expensive (keep in mind with these kinds of places, you usually get what you pay for!). Natalee on Robertson has even delivered all the way out to Westwood for me before.

Very fresh food with homemade style ingredients. I'm pretty picky but this place blew me away! The interior was beautiful and the prices were super cheap. Good place to take a date on a budget. I had some Tom ka kai soup, coconut w/shrimp, I could see actual lemon pulp in it, the shrimp tasted like it was freshly caught and delivered and even the spicy chile inside was fresh, not those dried shriveled ones I see in all the other asian food I order. I felt like I couldn't get better Thai, it was as good as being invited into someone's home for an authentic dinner. I can't wait to try more! The only kicker was parking... they have a large lot that they share with several other businesses, I went during lunch rush hour though, might be different during dinner and I noticed that they deliver too. YUM!

hot and prompt. Always hot and fresh........ I have ordered three times now and am satisfied with the food and prompt delivery.. The vegetable fried rice was full of veggies and very good. The pan fried noodles were delicious! Decent quality for the price.

Great Delivery. For those too lazy to drive anywhere, this is the perfect solution. I don't think I've ever actually eaten at the restaurant, but I sure do order a lot of delivery from them. I'm a huge fan of their panang curry with the coconut rice and their spicy fried rice. I order everything with tofu and personally, I like it even better than chicken or beef. The tofu soaks up all the spices and is very flavorful. Everything is always fresh and hot when it arrives at my door and service is never an issue. It's the standard delivery time for West LA...30 mins to an hour. As for the drinks...I wouldn't recommend ordering those. That's probably still a work in progress from them. (Whenever I've ordered their boba drinks...I've had to just throw them out.) Hope you enjoy the food as much as I do!
