I finally tried this place!
Good spot to eat if you’re passing by and hungry.
I ordered the thai chicken salad and it was refreshing—even with the boiled chicken. That was my first time eating boiled chicken (I think) and it comes as chicken strips but the texture is similar to tuna and the flavor seemed to have light seasoning, which I prefer.
I also ordered the Golden Tofu. 10/10. Would recommend.
The waitress also brought me two sauces, which was kind of her, the thai house sauce and the peanut sauce.
The thai sauce is amazing! I put it on my salad and took it home with me along with most of the golden tofu.
I’ll probably come by again sometime. 6/10 overall.
อาหารธรรมดา ร้านเก่าแย่ แถวได้ระดับ B จากรัฐ ควรปรับปรุงอย่างมาก ไม่สะอาด
Very good service and food. Best Customer service.
Delicious food good service decent prices.
The food was ok not like it used to be I got the s8 combo the skewers are half the size the beef was really tough the prices are quite high but the portions are small I know prices went up but the quality and quantity went down that’s a double whammy I don’t think I will b going back
Delivery driver called me to come downstairs from my apartment to pick up food. Told him I am sick so I'll buzz him up. He refused so I didn't give him tip. He called back yelling at me for no tip and saying he is no longer delivering to me...
Love this place!!!
Good food a bit cold but good I don't recommend the sea food soup not worth it looks like a hot pot 2 feed your dog 19$ not worth only 4 one person bad the ribs and chicken good but cold but good place if your in hurry but thay close early and re open after 4pm
I’ve lost count of the times I’ve eaten here or ordered take out. This time I dined in, the servers were attentive. Food came out fast and tasty.
I was waiting for a long time to dine in, but they started to cross of names for the dine in waitlist. Without informing anyone. When confronted why didn’t he warn the people waiting, he just stated he couldn’t do it since he’s so busy; when it would take a minute at most to warn people waiting. I’ve been dining here for years, and this has been the most disrespectful and unprofessional experience.
Thai bbq chicken always hits the spot. The seafood lemon grass with coconut milk soup was very delicious.
I've been going here for over 30 years. The quality of the food has stayed consistent. I don't live in the area anymore, but when I come down, I always stop and get the chicken. SO GOOD!
Food is flavorful. Nice ambient.
Only that anytime I ask for something with noodles, it comes out kind of raw and not fully cooked, so it always sticks in my stomach and it hurts. Usually I have to vomit the uncooked noodles.
Second one I have ordered 3 times, its always dry, it's chicken satte. Maybe another kind of chicken part instead of white meat, would've better on the satte.
Other foods are tasty and well cooked.
Only the fried rice it's usually luke warm.
White rice it's always steam warm nicely.
If you like BBQ ribs.. don't try these.. Ive had a lot better from Sizzler's restaurants.. try their chicken is not the best but tasty
I absolutely LOVE this place!!!!...I jus recently moved back to so Cal and this is the one place I instantly craved🥰🥰🥰🥰🤤🤤🤤🤤
I been having Thai BBQ chicken from this place for over 35 years
Best food ever 🤤🤤🤤🤤
First timer the food was great.
The best place I've ever visited, the food is super delicious, there are other Tai BBQ, but their food isn't the same.
Love this place. I live in Houston and we went all the way to California just to eat there.😍
Thai Original BBQ is a must-visit spot for delicious Thai food. If you don’t know what to order, definitely try their Chicken BBQ – it’s incredibly flavorful and tender. The service is friendly and quick, and the ambiance is cozy and welcoming. Highly recommend for an authentic and satisfying Thai dining experience!
One of my favorite Thai places in Koreatown! I always get the sweet and sour pork ribs and the chicken satay dinner and they always come out perfect. Whether you're dining in or doing takeout, the customer service is great

Comida muy rica y todo pero propina obligada asta para recoger y llevar a casa 🏡 ponen es sticker donde dice no propina para obligarte a dar propina. Comprendo dejar propina si comes en el restaurate. Pero la propina es boluntaria no entiendo 🤔 ya uno hace muncho con ir a consumir.. The tipping here is mandatory. They even put sticker on the machine were you choice (no tip) to force you to tip, when picking up.
Muy sabrosa la comida y bien servida, y muy atentos al servir.
Quality food. This restaurant will be my Thai spot from now on.
Thai Original BBQ usually hits the mark, but this time it was a tale of two ribs. The spare ribs were as mouthwatering as ever, even if the portions have become a bit more... modest. Let's chalk that up to the times, as everything seems to be shrinking except prices! The sauce on those ribs? Heavenly, MSG and all. But, oh boy, the pork ribs in sweet sauce are another story. Without mincing words, they were a miss—so much so that they ended up in the trash. It's time for that dish to make a quiet exit from the menu. Still, for those signature spare ribs, I'll keep coming back, hoping the rest of the menu matches their standard.
The food was delicious, so fresh and flavorful yum new favorite spot I want to try it all. The servers are so sweet and kind, great place to get lunch and treat yourself.
Excelente comida muy amables rapido el servicio.
Food was amazing. We ordered the BBQ spare ribs, combination pad thai, shrimp soup was simply delicious.
Bad service, they take so long! They don’t welcome customers
Foods always good
Great service. I'm disabled and ordered to go they help bring thevfood to my car.

This has been my family’s go-to for as long as they’ve been in America and this has been a special place being born and raised here. They never disappoint and I can tell you this for certain. Thank you for being a part of my life!
THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE UNLIKE THE FOOD. MY BIG SISTER HAD TO WALK UP TO THE COUNTER AND ASK THEM TO COME TO OUR TABLE #NOTOKAY. IF MY MOTHER HAD TO GO UP THERE THEY WOULDVE KNOWN WHAT IS UP. GO TO THE ONE IN GLENDALE. 0/10 customer service. I stand on buidness!
Best Thai Ever
best Thai food in LA:) awesome how they never get my order wrong through the years :)
Oh Thai Original BBQ this location has fallen from grace for me. I remember when the food, atmosphere and service was almost perfect as a kid good times even with a big party and celebration. I recently went for pick up and the lady was dismissive and so were the wait staff and attendants asking for a simple cup to share the thai tea but charging for it. If I asked for a cup of water would it be different? I was surprised the clover point of sale device had a heart sticker to cover the no tip square. My co worker also mentioned looking for no tip because it was a pick up order! I don't think I'll be coming back here, the food isn't like the original even if it was the original back in the day. I think the chefs have moved to another of their chain. I understand the price hike but 2x of the original is off-putting.
We love this place. Have been a patron since 2001. Every opportunity my grown children and I will stop by. Yet this last time I was not too satisfied with service. Unfamiliar faces...unfriendly. Maybe has new management? Not sure. Anyhow food still great. Except Thai spring rolls. Seemed or tasted like old. Meaning they were sitting in fridge for a minute.
Excelente comida, limpio, solo que el lugar donde nos sentaron era demasiado frio
Placed a big order for pick up. The resturant didn't include our drinks. Food didn't taste that good.
I called multiple times to let them know about the missing drinks, and the restaurant wouldn't answer any of our calls.
Once again, I dined sufficiently and the food was fabulous. My friend from Georgia loved it. It's my hotspot.
Each time I’m near the area, I have to stop even I’m not hungry:) I will do take out and can eat the food anytime . This is a superb Thai restaurant !!
Orderedw the panang curry and ended up getting this. Awful experience. This order was $17 including taxes. I normally order panang curry other places and get more curry for less, and better quality. Can definitely say I’m never coming here again. Save your money folks, this place ain’t it unless you have that kind of cash to throw around for a mediocre meal.
the owners of the place commented that the food is always fresh. I expected to wait a bit for my food to come out but it was served within 3 minutes of ordering. It is NOT fresh. Especially by the taste of it.
Good service 👍
Visiting this restaurant for second time and after 13 years seems the same inside...I think building needs restoration. The food was great and staff is cool.
Been going there for years and never disappointed, food is great. There specials and there my favorite.
Everything about this place was great! Food, service, atmosphere..wonderful.
Beef Satay Dinner still good after all these years 😊
Very bad place I tried to eat here I went around 8 and they did not let me eat here the staff that work here are very rude people would not recommend this place
After my trip with family to the Grammy's Museum at LA LIVE, we went to our favorite Thai BBQ place! We always get their pork ribs and shrimp rice!!!! And we also got the Thai shrimp and mushrooms coconut soup!! Food was great! This place is on 3rd Street off of Vermont Avenue!
Their ribs are fantastic
I always go here for the s8 .
People here are always polite, and service is good.
What’s with all these 5 star reviews here?? Went there at lunch time, below average lukewarm overpriced food with very slow service and don’t worry…they will add tips with the bill for you to save your valuable time, How Nice of them 🙄. AVOID this place !!!
My favorite restaurant I love to go there once a month. I am very happy with their food. So delicious
Before 30 years the food was good. Today the food was spoiled when we told the waiter he said we were to blame with a bad attitude they did not change our food or did anything to help terrible service I will not return to that place. We not recomend
En general está bien. Aunque creo que está sobrevalorado en sus ratings. Es un restaurante bueno pero muy simple. Hay que tomar en consideración que la cuenta incluye la GENEROSA propina que ellos consideran merecer y obligatoria
I celebrated my 18th birthday at this spot and I still order the same thing from them to this day (more decades later than I care to disclose). Must try: beef satay dinner & Tom Kah Kai. Their pad Thai is tasty too but the satay and tom kah are my fave hands down! Swing by sometime!
The ribs and rice and shrimp were delicious here. The Tai tea, too. I enjoyed my lunch here today. I ordered the BBQ rib dinner. It came out to $22.99 with the Tai tea. The restroom is private and for 1 person at a time. It is ok, but can use a remodel. Parking is not easy to find here.
Todo muy rico, servicio bastante rápido y exelente servicio al cliente. ♥️
The only Thai BBQ I'll go to... I have been customer for last 5 years and trust me they are amazing😍😍
I have been a customer for more than 20 years in this restaurant, and tonight I brought my family to dinner at 8:10 pm and they denied me service, the restaurant sign said open and the hours say they close at 9 pm, they treated me disrespectfully and even my children started crying, i don't like to leave reviews but i want you to know that if you come to this place at night time now they are going to treat you like garbage, i do not recommend anyone to come to this place where They make you feel bad, discriminated against and that you don't matter as a customer. Unfortunately this place has changed a lot.
Love this place, food is delicious, love the bbq ribs,sweet angel and the teriyaki salamon
Check their hours. Their kitchen closes 30 min before they close. We went on a Wednesday and they close 3-5p. We went the following day and their kitchen closed at 830p. There is parking in their lot. Used to go there all the time before the pandemic and it looks like a shell of what it was before. Food is still yummy. Not enough variety of vegetables in their combination soup; mostly cabbage.
Muy rica comida
Love this place. Best Thai food in L.A. for years, and years to come.
Food is great. The bbq chicken is my favorite.
Be aware of automatic tip they add to your bill regardless of number of people and deceptively not show separate tip line. I almost double tip them.
I love Thai bbq. I have been going since I was a kid and never had any kind of problem. Food is always good the day we went was no exception. Food is 5 stars.
My concern is when we got the bill. I was about to start adding in a tip when I noticed the tip had already been added. Which I found strange since normally you get that when it’s a big party. It was just 2 of us. I just dismissed it and was like okay that’s fine let me just give them the card and pay. When I got the receipt to sign I noticed it had a line to add a tip and a suggested tip. I was like that’s so deceptive. People are probably double tipping unknowingly if you don’t look at your bill carefully and notice the tip they already added to the bill.
For me that’s a deal breaker. I have no problem tipping but that’s not okay in my book. Make sure you check your bills so you’re not double tipping.
Employees were rude, food was undercooked, staff cleaned our table with a dirty rag and multiple customers returned with complaints.
The BBQ is really good and the staff is friendly and fast.
I love their chicken and pork rib bbq with shrimp fried rice.
This Was My First Tume Coming To This Restaurant The Food Was Very Good But The Service Needs Improvement. I Didn't Like The Fact That They Kept My Change Without Me GivinTo Them. When I Asked For It I Felt IThey Got Botherd Plus When They Gave It To Me They Look Upset. .
Today we had bad service . Also place is very dirty floors, bathrooms are terrible. Tables, ect windows chairs, imagine there kitchen where they prepared out food. ?. And bad service including they did not have a clean spoons. I had to wait until they washed.
Toooo expensive. Plus they charge you tip on bill, which its not good cause food already toooo expensive.
Food is simply delicious! Service our waitress mixed up our order twice. Once with the table behind us and another with the table beside us and also our plates came before our appetizer.
Thanks Rosy
Buena comida y buena atención
Lastima los baños 🚻 ☹️
Más o menos
Great food
The food was good as always and the service was amazing.
Food very different taste from other same restaurant in Cerritos still good in both
Excellent place, the food was terrific! The thai bbq chicken was so tender and seasoned well. Portions were generous. Food was presentrd well, came fast and tasted great! Service was great too.
Primera vez que visito este lugar. Pero la orcha es mejor,!
Great food great service
I've been dining at this restaurant for over 25 years and I'm ashamed that I waited so long to do a review on them because they deserve so much more of my support for having a perfect restaurant. They have an excellent staff with perfectly cooked food every time you visit you'll never have a complaint please visit my friends at the Thai BBQ restaurant in Los Angeles on 3rd and Beverly one block after Normandy.Bring the entire family and don't forget to order a large Thai Tea!!! 💓💓💓
this was my first time coming here to eat; the food was delicious I even had to take home my food we had the dearest crab, the sweet angel, and the slate dinner so so so good
Great place friendly fast
Delicious food here.
Me and my family and friends love their chicken and ribs bbq so much, the padThai and Thai ice tea! We used to live a walking distance, been customer way back in the 80s moved to Arizona 2014 but never forget to dine at Thai bbq on 3rd street whenever we visit LA.
Food was okay, been coming here for years. This time they automatically added 15% gratuity to our entire bill which was half for take out. Tips should be added only for dine ins. Disappointed.
Me and my boyfriend got food poisoning from this restaurant. The fish was burnt and the taste of the chicken wasn’t pleasing. Most likely we were poisoned by rice, cause only that was in both dishes: S11 and S12.
L. A. locations. is great.
My favorite in L. A!
Their Mix Seafood Combination Soup with coconut milk and mild spicy is a must . And the rest follows
Excellent sea food soup. I added coconut, so delicious...I would eat it over and over...
Greta food Great service
Love the food !! Grew up coming here !!
Thai food is great food no matter what or where you eat. Personally it is my favorite world food any place any time
Unfortunately food is so great but service is HORRIFIC ... MAKES YOH EVEN WANT TO THINK THEY DELAY SERVICE WITH NON ASIAN PEOPLE...(discriminated) HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO check your bill before paying they add tips automatically to your BILL...
A great restaurant if you want to overpay for food and want to see a variety of different bugs and cockroaches!
Growing up this was my favorite restaurant. Now, thumbs down and on top of it, very ruled waitress.
Good food 😊
