El 7 mares delicioso

Diner Review №2

This place is family owned, I've been coming to thus place for over 20 years, and back to them was a quiet and lonely place. Their best is their fried plantain, which they serve while you are waiting for your food, I think most families come here for their seafood soup, but Chowmeain and other plates are a bomb as well. Excellent service 👏

Diner Review №3

We finished everything!! It’s was delicious. Plus no waiting like tu Ocha one. I will prefer this one from now on.

Me encanta la sopa de 7 mares de este lugar! El arroz con camarones y el Chow Mein! Es un restaurante Tailandes y por lo tanto siempre la comida es preparada al momento.
El tiempo de espera generalmente es de 30 min a 1 hra ya se para comer en el lugar o llevar! Hay mucho más en el menú pero no puedo hablar al respecto pero supongo que todo será delicioso...!XD los plátanos saben deliciosos!!

This is a quaint little spot that I've been going to for many years now. The ladies that serve you are so sweet. I started eating there about 20 yrs ago, and the same ladies are still serving there. I recommend the fried plantain to take an order to go. They have other good food, but that is what I like the most there.😊

Food was horrible I’ve been a customer for many years but the quality is just gone the drain. No thank you!!

Diner Review №13

Food was OK. Chicken in the dish was not fresh. It is cash only place. They provide free fried banana. Overall can be only 3 stars.

Rico la comida

Diner Review №20

I came in for some soup. The place was not busy, they had already attended their current customers. Family run, no doubt lol. The young teenage dude was the only one who speaks English. I was able to understand whom I believe was the grandmother, since she was my waitress. She surprised me with a plate of fried plantains, how sweet. The price, with a soft drink, fantastic. Under $16. Parking is ehh. Would come back again if I was in the area.

Had Pad Thai and was good, I don't blame them for the $17 price tag on it, I blame Bidenflation for that

When my partner and I went in, we were seated in the far left table. As soon as I sat down, I noticed a black curly hair on the plates for the customers. I told the waiter and he apologized for the inconvenience. He then proceeded to give me another one. On the other plate, there was also a hair. This time, it was black and wavy. I told the waiter again and he just apologized. The employees took a while to get me my food. When everyone else was served. (It’s a small place so not so many people go). When asked about the process of the food, the waiter said to wait and just dismissed the main question. He brought the food 5 mins later. As I started eating my food, I noticed another black hair but this time, it was in the bottom of the food, and sticking out from the side. I told the waiter and he looked bothered at the fact that I was finding all of these hairs. He then asked if we wanted another order of rice or if we wanted to cancel the order. I said to cancel the order bc three hairs in a row is not normal. I am not the type of person to lose their appetite for little things but the customer service, and the restaurants hygiene is not good at all. The mirrors they have as decoration are dirty, the floors are dirty, when you go into the rest room, both the rest room and kitchen looked dirty. I’m very disappointed and don’t plan on coming back anytime soon.

Diner Review №70

I was there with my family of three two weeks ago. I had to wait for 20 minutes in front of the entrance. The food wasn't delicious for me. I ordered this soup (see the photos) and that dish. The café was packed with people. The service was mediocre.

Diner Review №71

The food they offer on the menu looks great, but when they serve you it's complete garbage, no se los recomiendo es un asco 🤮 🤮🤮💩💩💩💩sobrevalorado, solicite la sopa 7 mares y me sirvieron solo los mares en lo absoluto nada de mariscos

Diner Review №72

Diner Review №73

I have been going there my whole life its always been a great place to eat and the food is delicious and the staff are so kind and respectful

Diner Review №74

Almost no wait time, food was good, service was straight forward and simple. We ordered steamed rice, chowmein, and I believe its called the 7 oceans.

I've gone here when I was super young and ever since then I have been able to remember the iced tea and would constantly crave the taste. Finally, I was able to taste it once more and the taste from my memory was exactly the way I remember.

First off cash only! Ordering my food was pretty easy! I order the Thai tea and my fiancé ordered horchata. Thai tea was pretty basic but still tasty. They got that good ice that’s nice and crushed as well!

Orders pad see and tum yum shrimp for both and a side of rice. What’s cool is they asked if I wanted American or Chinese broccoli for the noodle dish. That’s a plus for me. I got Chinese broccoli.

They brought out some BOMB deep fried plantains while we waited! Very delicious!

Shrimp soup was the first to come out. Uhhh very underwhelming. The taste was not there. Very bland. Not seasoned. But still edible and I wouldn’t consider it gross. The pad see came out second! Fire. Sooooo good! Has the yummy char taste and nice and saucy and fresh from the broccoli! So good I almost forgot to take a picture.

Very hole in the wall kinda greasy restaurant but I’d come back for the noodles and to try a new dish.

i LOVE this place! 🥹 have been eating here since i was wayyyy younger. never have i gotten sick off anything i ordered. never had a problem. sure, there are things that could be a lot better, but its a family business and sometimes that's the price you pay for that "hole-in-the-wall" goodness. the food has ALWAYS hit the spot. Every. Single. Time.

Diner Review №106

Gotta love all the fake positive reviews. This place has some of the most overpriced horrible Thai/Chinese food I've ever eaten. The Tom ka soup was watery, the pad Thai chicken was barely edible, and on my way to the cramped, greasy bathroom one glance into the kitchen makes me wonder about the cleanliness and safety of the food. I got stomach poisoning from eating here. It's a dump. Not worth it.

The place is charming. Plaza is quite small so I would recommend walking there. I ordered the spicy drunken noodle (chicken) and pad see ew (beef). The drunken noodle was barely spicy at all which for my preference I didn’t like and the beef in the pad see ew was well overcooked.

Diner Review №114

Este es unos de los pocos lugares en Los Angeles CA que realmente vale la pena. La comida es pura calidad. El ambiente es muy bonito. Cuando vengas, ven con tiempo ya que no hay tanto espacio y los cocineros ya son de edad mayor (creo que es por eso que sus platillos tienen un sazón muy agradable al paladar). Tienen que probar su sopa de siete mares y el arroz frito con camarones 😋. El parking es muy angosto y pequeño, ya que se comparte con otros negocios. Sean muy cuidadosos.... Bueno espero que tengan la oportunidad de visitar este lugar.

The service is very slow, the dishes are typical thai food. You can bring your own beer if you feel like it. The seafood soup is a top seller along with Chinese broccoli with beef and black mushrooms... enjoy

This place has gone absolutely down hill. Terrible service. Unsanitary as hell. Food was cold and tasted like old oil. Mongolian beef came out as a grey boiled beef dish in a small bowl??? It was disgusting. Used to be a charming little hood spot but it’s foul now. Don’t go! Beware!

Diner Review №144

El sabor de la sopa de 7 mares es único, por lo demás el servicio es lo mas común que se podría tener, es un lugar para una comida jovial y familiar.

Diner Review №145

I tried asking about the menu options and the lady told me if I didn't know what it was to just not order and told me to order something I wouldn't have liked. If you're a picky eater and like asking about your options don't bother coming here.

This Thai restaurant is alright. I have a few in Thai town that I loved.. the Pad se ew is not quite as tasty, but kinda oily. The Papaya salad could uses some more lime juice. Chicken pad Thai is not great, I don't know. Maybe this is one of their off day..

Diner Review №196

I don't know what it is but their food is delicious. It is a family owned business but really good.. I have tried countless Thai restaurants but wow this place keeps me coming back everytime. Their noodles are just perfect not over seasoned or overcooked like other places I've tried. They are very generous with the amount of food they serve too. Specially their fried Bananas. I always get a second bag free for some reason. But I recommend to order ahead of time because they do take long to have it ready. But it's worth they wait. Oh and they only take cash. So go prepared.

Diner Review №197

Took too long , n food was basic , not alot in each order for 4 ppl but hey it was last minute n we wanted pad Thai... spent like 65 on 4 plates . I will say the old ladies were sweet . Gave us fried plantains for free with our order 😋
