I've driven by so many times but never got a chance to stop before. The yellow curry is so delicious. It is full of rich flavor. And it is full of shrimps and carrots and even some sliced onions and of course potatoes. I asked for spicy and it is a little spicy but i would have added more chili if I ate inside. The service was very friendly and they even came looking for me to get my order. I seriously cant wait to go back. I want to try the new spicy wings next time. π
This is such a lovely spot to share a delicious meal with friends! The Yellow Curry is absolutely amazing, especially when paired with the CosyShrimps. The staff are always so polite and friendly. Enjoying a meal here is always a great experience!
I absolutely love this place. The food is always amazing. I definitely recommend for you to try the drunken noodle, orange chicken, the boat noodle and their fire wings. Donβt even get me on their delicious crab fried rice. Canβt wait to try the rest of the menu later! The people they have working there are kind and also friendly. Also not a long wait for the food so that was great too!
Good food...friendly staff..so lovely very helpful...for me to post this review means its good enough for me to take the time to review. I only post great reviews and worst, there is no middle. I practically been to every thai place in the area and more. Always order the same item but went off and order different...Crispy tofu done correctly here only wish it had flavor then it will be awesome. Ordered garlic shrimp and fried rice big portion. My spouse had the chow main very authenic.
Take out. Fried rice was ok. Pad Thai was not good. Fire wings were oily and the chicken was fatty. Egg rolls were good. Will not order again.
I've eaten here I think...3 times. Every time I'm not 'WOWed' and also not completely disappointed.
What was disappointing this time was one of the dishes that I ordered included sweet and sour pork but it should probably be called sweet and sour vegetables. Perhaps it is just what I'm used to eating when I think of sweet and sour pork but this is not what I was expecting and the sad portion of pork compared to vegetables was disappointing.
The pad Thai with chicken had very sad amount of chicken. Chicken prices have collapsed from the $100+ dollars a case it was before, so there's no excuse for that really. It was disappointing also.
Thai coconut soup was tasty, probably the best thing I've eaten here. Service was very quick and served HOT.
I think some of the dishes could be tweaked or perhaps I should avoid ordering Chinese food at a Thai restaurant π€ π€·ββοΈ. Portions could be better. I don't think I'll be back, given other options in the area.
I ordered the Aura noodle soup and firecracker wings, OOOMG they where so delicious def ordering again. I been here before but always order with in my comfort zone. To day I went and tried something different and it did not disappoint.
Very good, would recommend going for a cozy atmosphere and authentic Thai food πππ

Been going here since 2014 and the quality has been maintained. Lots of competition of course in this space, but this place stacks up quite well. It's not the most beautiful place to go but food's good
Excelente

Panang curry is my favorite here the spicy levels are accurate. I usually get mild and itβs still enjoyable I love the touch of cocinar flavor that stands out compared to other places that serve this dish. Service is ok lady that answers the phone seems in a rush and a bit rude to my friend Everytime we place a phone order, we were religiously visiting this place every week last summer. But she was too rude we had to find a new spot. I definitely recommend the food is great.
I have had meals both on site and take out. I absolutely love the chicken pad Thai. I probably get this dish at least twice a month. Highly recommended.

First time I tried this Thai spot & I unfortunately got food poisoning from the food I ate here, stay away from this spot!
Long time favorite - food is excellent and very generous portions. Service is polite and efficient.
Good portions. Quick service. Lots of breweries near by.
Best Pad Thai in Long Beach. Yellow curry is also top notch. Parking spots available for pick up orders. 10/10
I ordered the fire pepper they were yummy, will definitely return very soon

I got the crab fried, but I had no idea it would come with the crab shells as well. There were small, surprised, sharp shells all throughout the rice. Pretty much couldn't eat it.

The larb was excellent! The service was friendly. The prices were reasonable and the location convenient. Did I mention that the larb was excellent?
Amazing food. Not greasy, authentic, fresh. Definitely made with love. Pad Thai, Tom kha gai, green curry were all fantastic. 10/10
My go to Thai restaurant. The only place that prepares Thai-spicy food exactly how I enjoy it. π
Not a cozy place as it located like in the back. You would only see it if you went for jamba juice because it's in the same little plaza smfπ€¦. Yeah I wouldn't recommend this place. We spent over 75.00 dollars for 2 and they served us paper plates , cups, and a kid's style drinks?π³π tf was that aboutπ€£π. Not going back there. Oh and food was awful. Grilled shrimp salads was super super salty and their krapow beef was way off? Meat was tough and veggies was all wrong? Krapow is basically stir fry beef with garlic thai basil and a lot of minced Thai chillies? I know my food because I cook major of what I ordered from there?π³π€¦smh.
We ordered some curries, which were made gluten free!
The yellow curry was delicious, amazing potatoes, not spicy at all which was okay.
The red curry was so good with bamboo shoots, a little bit of nice heat from the chili oil.
The Aura curry was so good with pineapple and nice and spicy!
We got mango sticky rice which was perfectly ripe mango and not overly sweet rice!
Wonderful service!
I really enjoy the selection of Thai dishes that this location creates. The food is always really good and very favorable.
The gift card scanner wasn't working

Excellent food and great tasting Thai tea. Definitely coming back in the near future.
I loved this place had the Thai fried rice. The food was amazing will definitely be back.
Good ice cream! Favorite actually! Food was good. Customer service good. Enjoyed the location, nice experience π
Arrived for Dine In and no one greeted us or directed us to order at the front counter after sitting down. The place was empty. The employees just kept talking to each other at the front counter. Would not recommend. I would go down the street to another place if needed. The food was okay.
Parked outside this restraunt to visit a nearby business. Unloaded my 6 month old child into the stroller and once I turned around two women from this business started pestering me. "Where are you going?, who told you you could park here? I won't have you towed this time..." were some of the things I heard as I tried to enjoy the weekend with my young child. Not only did I feel violated but their veiled threats made no sense as none of the parking spots had any signs saying you couldn't park there. I then watched them continue to berate others who parked there too. There is 4 businesses in the strip yet these people seem to think only their patrons can park here. Avoid.
Always my go to Thai place in LB!
In person the customer service and welcoming could improve. The food was good and fresh and we love the appetizers egg rolls dumplings and the potato wontons. Oh yes, the Orange Chicken was delicious and a bit different; it wasnβt drowned in all that breading which we appreciated. For delivery we love this place xoxo
Service was okay, girls stood inside for about 3 minutes before they noticed someone standing at the table inside.
Menu prices are false, they have a small sign on the table saying prices have increased on all items. Misleading.
Food was okay. Drunken Noodles had no spice and they didnt ask. You assume drunk noodles will have spicy. Pork was rough and cooked in water, no flavor. Noodles had little flavor also.
Overall, would not come again.
My favorite Thai restaurant. Service is always served with a smile and the food is out of this world. Great place to eat
I ordered the drunken noodles but it was bland. Lacking flavor and too dry compared to other places I've been to.
I stopped by to picked up some beef fried rice and an order of 4 veggie egg rolls and my total was $26?? Itβs good food but the price hike makes me think twice about going now
Very good
Awesome food
Don't feel comfortable with their covid compliance. Masks are not always around their nose and mouth.
Delicious π
There is a person there that answers the phone that should not be doing so or dealing with the public a matter of fact.Have had this experience several times with this person.
Great panang curry
Absolutely delicious.
Terrible Horrible customer service!!!!!! Food mediocre and not interested in repeat customers. Take your money somewhere else.
Food was great, staff not so friendly.
Fast, polite service, plenty of parking, great delivery times. The menu is robust for vegetarians and others alike. Amazing beef and tofu pad Thai, excellent Thai iced tea.
Awesome staff ...tasty food
I will never eat at Arua Thai again there was hair in my Chicken Pad Thai.
tasty dishes and great lunch specials, with fast service
Some really great red curry. And the staff were really sweet
Always enjoy Aura Thai. Great friendly staff.
Da best Thai food in Bixby Knolls, great curried meals that satisfy. They have other thai selections and they're just as delicious, I love curry tho.
good
Best Thai Food Ever !!!
Delicious Food, clean place and friendly people
Always great food and great service!
Delicious
Highly recommended very highly customer service.
The food was decent but I am 99% sure that their food gave me food poisoning. My husband and I ate completely different lunches and then ate here for dinner; his food was too spicy so he ate very little while I ate my entire meal. I ended up getting horrible food poisoning and he got mild food poisoning.
Very tasty!!! Wifey had the shrimp pad Thai, I had chicken Thai rice (hot) and our son drunken noodles with shrimp.
It was super good, but there mild/medium/hot/Thai hot scale was a little shaded to the right. The hot was hotter than I was expecting...not βmelt the faceβ hot, but I definitely would have gone with medium heat next time. My son gave up on his...he said he βtasted nothingβ because of the heat. And he drank my water. Lol. He also clarifies that it was his bravado, not the restaurants fault regarding the heat.
Homemade coconut ice cream was superb!!
The lady in the evening shift at the counter on Sunday is extremely rude. The food is delicious, but the service is aweful.
Great little spot for Thai food.
Speechless
Cool spot
Have been there twice during my 3days stay in Long Beach. Really loved their Drunken Noodles (no meat for me), their fresh coconuts are also super delicious. The menu is very large, many vegan options too :) Keep in mind that if you ask for "mild" it's still somewhat spicy, so for those that can't handle spicy, be aware!!!!
Love this food. Theyre service is good. I will be returning next with my family
Best food ever....
Good place and varied and new dishes!
They bring your drinks in Mason jar and they are very friendly but it is a small. Laid back place. Food is served very fast and they're friendly. Remember to get the stamp towards free food in their app!
great experience, tasty food , customer service A1. Some good recommendations for next visit. must try.
Love this place
Very rude from the moment I walked in to.... Had way better food then this, the was no chicken on my order disappointed to come and treated the way I was won't be back
Delicious food. My usual is the Thai Fried Rice, with either chicken or beef. I just tried the beef and actually prefer it. I just love the way they make the dish and the seasoning of the beef. I'm also a fan of the Thai Iced Tea. The biggest issue is the parking, the parking lot is small and hard to got into and out of.
Exquisite taste and a welcoming atmosphere. A hidden gem in my opinion. They have a passion for serving authentic food and equally beautiful dishes.
The food is excellent
I will NEVER come here again nor order food for the office again.
I was attacked by a Waitress to why I dont leave a tip in which is not legally required.
MAYBE if they were nice and not rude, I'd leave a tip.
This is total disrespect!
For her to come chase me down is disrespectful!!!!!
Very good food. Friendly wonderful service. Enjoyable experience that we are looking forward to returning to.
Nice pad thai here
πππππππππ
We loved it. Our favorite restaurant in Bixby Knolls.
Great food, inviting, and super friendly staff. One of my favorites in the area.
Delicious lunch spot
Excellent food and service
First time here, amazing people and most important amazing food
Food so full of flavor, reasonable price, and great customer service!
I had a really tasty Massaman curry and my wife enjoyed her calamari salad and coconut soup. The others in our party had pad Thai and another noodle dish (pad suy ??) and said they were too sweet. Sweet young coconut and thai iced coffee were well received by all. Most mains were ~$9, very reasonable for good quality food. Server was helpful when it came to allergy questions.
Very clean and organic grease free delicious variety of plates to choose
Our experience tonight was 100% unacceptable. We decided to try Aura Thai because we love Thai food. Our first impression was ok even though the server was not very friendly from the get go.
We ordered a few appetizers, chicken pad Thai, beef pad thai and noodles for our son.
The appetizers we're good, and the noodles my son seemed to enjoy very much. However, our pad thai dishes did not taste right. My boyfriend managed to eat his plate even though he didn't care much for it, I took one bite and was done. It was entirely too sweet, chicken was chewey did not have enough flavor just a sweetness I could not get over. I asked for some salt and the server told me to just try putting chili oil on it. She refused to get me salt at all. I told the server I did not like my dish and I was going to send it back.
This woman didnt apologize, recommend a different dish or even allow me to order something else. She was very rude and argued with me that there was nothing wrong with the food and that she didn't understand why my bf ate his beef dish but my chicken dish was not good. I told the server to please take away the plate to which she replied: what do you want me to do with it? I'm not gonna eat it! As if we ever would suggest she eat our leftovers, confusing and frustrating
She walked away and I assume mentioned to the rest of the crew my issue with the food. Nobody bothered to offer an apology or tried to make the situation better. They kept glancing at us and just spoke to each other in their mother tongue with us just sitting feet from them.
After awkwardly arguing with us for almost 20 minutes about paying for the dish I didn't eat (took one bite) and how she pretty much refused to acknowledge my food was terrible she returned to the table. She said this one time I will take it off, as if she was doing us a favor!!! I replied it will be a one time because we will never eat here again.
I have worked in food service and can tell you that I would NEVER start an argument with a table if their experience was bad. I would simply apologize, make a recommendation and make sure the manager took it off the bill. Absolute rudeness, NEVER AGAIN!!!
Wait time is awful when it comes to their promo on the thai Nachos. !!
Was good place for a Thai food...
Food just decent. Went during lunch rush hours and looks like they are understaff. Small parking that shared with other restaurants.
Use to be real good...
Delicious food, wide variety, their soups are amazing.
Best Thai food in Long Beach hands down and great prices
Good food...friendly staff..so lovely very helpful...for me to post this review means its good enough for me to take the time to review. I only post great reviews and worst, there is no middle. I practically been to every thai place in the area and more. Always order the same item but went off and order different...Crispy tofu done correctly here only wish it had flavor then it will be awesome. Ordered garlic shrimp and fried rice big portion. My spouse had the chow main very authenic.
Not too pleased with my last dish. I think in the past it was better.
I love this food so much, I'm in here at least once a week. The flavors are rich and powerful, as they should be, even when the spice is turned down to mild (I'm not as young as I used to be). The staff is very friendly and you can tell that they really care about their business and the quality of their food.
Great atmosphere, great waitress and great food.. Thank You Jiwi!
Good Thai. Quick service. Reasonably priced.
Fantastic food, lots of variety, great spice levels.
The food here is always terrific and at a fair price. We always come here.
Quick, friendly service, great pad Thai!
Great good comfort environment
Always a good meal here! If you love spicey food, this is the place for you! If you are a spice wimp like me, they will make it to suit your taste.
Great food. Been coming here for years and will keep coming back.
I LOVE this place. Their vegetable soup is as insanely good as it is simple. The people who work there are always so nice and the food is consistently good. We've been eating there for almost a year, about once a month or more. The garlic rice with tofu is crazy good. They have tons for vegans/vegetarians in addition to the usual Thai food offerings. It helps that they have super convenient parking with indoor and outdoor seating. You can eat in or get your order to go. Definitely check them out.
I keep going back. Good service, good food, good prices!
Decent price, decent food
I was hungry I was driving down the road and I saw this Thai restaurant never been there never even heard of it. It was well lit and I walked in not knowing what to expect and I asked the person behind the counter what they suggested it was a little cold and she suggested I get there soup. All I can say is OMG it was delicious it was very flavorful it was a huge Bowl it was warm in a truly hit the spot. I got mine with chicken and I think I can't remember the actual time name but it had Curry and lemon and it was just a Licious if I had to say what you should try there I will say the soup I kind of wish I would have tried the pad thai but honestly it was just too much food next time I go trust me I'm eating the pad thai. I have water but I looked around and I noticed everybody who was eating there had gotten the Thai iced tea and I asked them they said it was good so I think next time I'll try that also very clean and I think you will really enjoy it easy parking easy Ingress and egress to get in and out.
Good quality food. Good portion sizes.
#1 curry in my 35 curries I've tried around the state of CA. Aura curry (duck).
Super nice people, great food.
Food here has been mediocre at most.
It's a good restaurant &so is the food. Laid back avg tkt $15.
Been coming here for 3 or 4 years now, never disappointed. π
Muy buena comida casera y saludable
This place needs to be shut down.
Bad experience here. Staff was rude and horrible! Would give them no stars if possible.
Horrible place bad customer service had to ask 3 times for water and still nothing. Never again! Honestly the worst employees ever!!!!
They have great Thai food. I would recommend.
Minimum purchase to use cards is 10 dollars, so if ur having or thinking of having lunch here I donβt recommend it unless u have cash.
A great neighborhood Thai restaurant with good options. Lots of delicious choices and relatively inexpensive. Great option for a quick takeout meal.
