50 Best Thai Restaurants near Hawthorne

“I enjoyed the food at this restaurant. The fried calamari was delicious, super crispy and fresh. I will definitely return just for this plate alone. I had the pad thai and the beef broccoli plate. Overall the food and drinks were great. The restaurant is small but very clean and friendly staff. Plenty of parking available. No rerservation required.“

“Drove from Vegas over here for a concert and stumbled upon this hidden gem. It’s located in a small plaza with limited parking/space. The storefront has a couple comfortable spaces to sit & enjoy their food. The waiter was very kind & checked up on us to make sure we were enjoying the food. We ordered the chicken poppers as an appetizer, dark meat hainan chicken over garlic rice, and the crispy chicken over garlic rice. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. The hainan chicken also came with 2 sauces to dip the chicken in - a hainan sauce which was sour, slightly sweet, and slightly salty. The other sauce was a smoky spicy sauce which was amazing. Both entrées came with a clear chicken soup which was also very enjoyable. Service was very quick, efficient, and caring. Please give this hidden gem a try, you won’t regret it. 10/10 service and taste.“

“Husband and I came in for dinner; floors just got cleaned so bathroom was very clean. Good music and great food.
We had the chicken cashew nut and pad ew. Real cashews.We loved it!!
Table chili powder gave the perfect heat. And Thai iced tea had a nice tang not the regular sugar fest.“

“Farmhouse kitchen is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. On top of the food being great and delicious, the presentation makes you want to order everything from the menu. Chef Bo was so nice to come out to our table and all I can say is she was a very nice, young & talented person. She even made me a special dessert for my birthday. Thanks Bo❤️ I highly recommend this place if you want an authentic, excellent and delicious food. In addition, the place is so full of life. The decor is amazing! I can’t wait to go back and try some of the fancy drinks and dishes on the menu.“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“My whole family loved the food and we had great service!“

“Loved the food, great experience and atmosphere“

“feedback regarding my recent visit to your Gardena location on Father's Day. I traveled all the way from Orange County specifically to try your mango sticky rice.

While I found the mango sticky rice to be good, I felt the price was a bit higher than other places I have visited, and I likely wouldn't make the long drive solely for that dish again. On a positive note, I really enjoyed the coconut jellies; the flavor was great and the size was satisfying, though I believe the pricing for those could also be improved.

Thank you for the meal and for taking the time to read my feedback.“

“Great customer service and great food. There dishes could include more varieties of vegetables but if you ask they can accommodate but for example instead of drunken noodles just having pepper and basil leave it could include multiple vegetables like baby corn, carrots, peppers and broccoli. Great experience overall.“

“We were in the area and wanted Thai food and Bamboo Thai Bistro came up. We stopped in and were greeted. We ordered the Wonton Soup to start, Mixed Vegetables with Chicken,Orange Chicken, and a side of Steamed Rice.

The food came out quickly and it was fresh and delicious.

For dessert, we had the Mango and Sticky rice. It was great.

We are glad we stopped in.
Everything was very enjoyable.“

“Authentic, made-to-order Thai food with incredible flavors. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared, with a slightly elevated take on traditional Thai dishes. The interior is simple and unassuming, but the food is absolutely the star of the show. A great spot for genuinely delicious Thai.“

“We had a great experience! I knew the food was going to be good as soon as the owner mentioned he also used to own a restaurant in Portland back in the days. And it was!

We ordered the green beans with tofu, chicken larb, crying tiger, tom yum soup, crab fried rice (real crab!!!), and mango sticky rice. You could really taste each dishes distinct flavor!

Highly recommend supporting this place if you’re in the area. Thank you for a great meal!“

“Best Thai in town 🤩

The food is amazing, and the staff is super friendly. I’ve tried A LOT of Thai restaurants in LA, and this is by far my favorite.

My recommendations: the green curry, the papaya salad, and of course, the mango sticky rice. 🤤
So happy to have Wirin in the neighborhood“

“Great customer service and delicious and flavorful food“

“I had the Salmon Kra Pow which was amazing. My partner had the Smiling Tiger and really enjoyed it. His sister brought us here and said she loved the food. She is vegan and had Pad See Ew with tofu.

They had traditional thai tea, fries, chicken wings and more. Great spot to eat and people watch while dining outside.“

“Tastes absolutely delicious and exactly the same as it did 30 years ago! Teriyaki chicken, order the #1 and you'll be happy!“

“One of my favorite spots! I eat here regularly because everything tastes amazing. The Pad Thai is a must-try — it’s the best I’ve had! Great food, friendly service, and good vibes every time.“

“muy buena comida y el servicio muy amable.“

“Hi Maricio! 1st visit to this wonderful place with handpainted mural. best fried tofu green curry i ever had!!! Everything is 100% fresh! tofu was tasty light fried soft inside. curry flavor had just right spice tasty coconut balance & perfect cooked veggies. bright white rice so fluffy i munched it like a side dish. see ya next time!“

“Pretty good restaurant with authentic flavors. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the dishes are interesting, like the special lobster pad Thai and soft shell crab pad Thai. The lobster one seemed especially popular, so I might give it a try next time. There’s only 1 bathroom, so good luck during rush hour.“

“Did not expect to be this nice because google image show a very simple restaurant. I went there yesterday with my family we were looking for Thai restaurant near by my house. I just move here for school so not familiar with area but my family want to eat our culture food. I am on a budget and this place coming with high rating. I like it a lot. Service was good. Crab fried rice for $13.99 is to die for. I usually spend closer to $20 for crab fried rice else where and they even use the real crab. Chicken wing are amazing. Red curry is also taste like home. I will definitely coming back. We sit there for closer to 2 hours and my nephew was entertain. They have games for kid and coin machine too. What a good find!“

“Great food, great prices, great customer service. Been coming here for the past couple years or so, and we always leave in a better state of being than when we arrive! <3“

“The best. We’ve been coming to Thai Express for over 25 year, from back when their place was at the foot of Mount Washington. Thai is the sweetest. When I was pregnant, she’d slip my husband an extra treat for me for good luck. She creates special vegan dishes for us. Their Tom yum veggie perfectly balances spicy and sour, with intense kaffir leaf flavor. The yellow curry is decadently rich. We count these wonderful folks as extended family — love them!“

“Small little thai place with the friendliest servers ever. Theyre also always playing some kind of food adventure shows on their TV and often in Asia or in Thailand. Great place for a quick bite. Good food. Good people. Good shows. I wish this place the best.“

“I ordered a steak salad which was so delicious and filling. The flavor profile is on point. This a meal and a half, lunch and dinner. The pat of rice as a addition is really nice. Beautifully presented, this my new go to place for Thai food 😋 9/2026 Pacific Square is a world of genuine flavor. This place hits it out the park every time! Be careful how to navigate the parking. The spot in the corner incognito are the best.“

“I had such a wonderful experience here. Truly authentic Thai food! The customer service was so heart warming and sincere. This is definitely a business that you can feel good about supporting. Come for the food or just come to chat with the owner Wichurada and get a mini lesson on Thai language and culture. 🥰

Roti is delicious (I ate it too fast to take a photo 😅)“

“I’ve been on the hunt for a great Thai spot since my favorite restaurant closed a few years ago, and I think I’ve finally found it! This was our first time ordering, and we were so impressed. The food was securely packaged for takeout, and both my wife’s meal and mine were absolutely delicious. To top it off, the person at the front was incredibly welcoming and cordial. We will definitely be back!“

“I recently visited this small family-owned restaurant while craving Thai food. As soon as I walked in, the owner greeted me warmly and provided menus. Shortly after, the owner's son pointed out the daily lunch specials, which were conveniently listed at the back of the menu, featuring smaller portions at a lower price.

Our meals arrived in under ten minutes and were delicious. The only downside was the salad; it had a few wilted leaves mixed in with the fresher ones. Overall, it was a great spot for a quick and satisfying lunch.“

“David’s Special! So Delicious! Love the taste!“

“Love a fully vegan spot, and this place has a big menu and all the charm of a cute ma-and pop-restaurant. Also lots of fun restaurants in the same parking lot with seating, so something for everyone if they aren’t a vegan believer.

As for the food, all freshly made and piping hot. Love that you can add fake meats to anything for not too much extra.

Only nit-pick was I wasn’t a fan of the fried rice (not enough tofu for my taste and a bit bland), but portion size was plentiful.

In a world of vegan restaurants closing left and right, it warms my heart to see a delicious and kitschy store make fresh and delicious vegan food!“

“Edit: They are closed till July 2026, they took the month of June for vacation! Good for them miss my soup lol

There are so many amazing things about this place, it is truly special. My husband grew up in Manhattan/Redondo Beach and has ate at both locations since childhood. We rediscovered in a recent search for soup one day about two months ago and I have not been the same since. I am obsessed.

While we have had a variety of dishes, and they are all super amazing, the first I want to personally highlight is the coconut chicken soup. I say it first because not only is it absolutely phenomenal taste wise (I like to get an extra side of broth only to sip on in the morning), the health benefits for someone like me, who struggles with gut and digestive issues, the galangal and like leaf pair with the amazing broth and slight spice from the chili is SO healing. That is partially why I get the extra broth so often, having it in the morning has been life changing. I’ve been able to eat a lot more and the last couple of years, that has been a struggle for me. This soup is a gift from heaven, for real.

We also really love the Massan (Muslim) Curry. The way these owners prepare their ingredients is such perfection. The peanuts are so perfectly boiled and cooked, and the sauce is to die for. My husband always jokes we should just get two because he essentially eats the entire thing in five minutes or less. I’m lucky to get a bite in. I also recommend adding extra peanuts. It’s an up charge but they are divine.

Any. Chicken. Dish. And I don’t say that lightly at all. I have serious issues with texture when it comes to eating, despite having an extensive taste palate…I don’t enjoy chewy textures or fat. The way these owners prepare chicken is prepared: cleaned, tenderized, cut, cooked…I have not got a “bad bite” as I call it when I get something too chewy for my liking. Their chicken is so perfect, I can actually order and enjoy satay skewers from here. I love satay but it’s rare to find a place that makes their chicken well enough that I will order it. Their cucumber salad is also amazing and I also recommend ordering an extra side of that as well.

I can’t say enough good things about how delicious and gut healing their food is. It really has helped me start to regain weight and have an appetite again after a couple of bad health years; it’s cooked so perfectly I could cry; and the flavors are just so amazing. Ingredient quality 10/10. I love this place.“

“Love love... me and my sons fave...“

“The food was great however I’m not a fan of the younger cashier/waitress. She snatched my $20 when I paid for my food and ignored me when I asked for chopsticks.“

“The food was very good! I will be visiting again“

“One of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to in the U.S. I’d even say the food here tastes just as authentic and delicious as what I’ve had in Thailand.

I’m especially obsessed with their Tom Kha soup — it’s absolutely amazing and easily one of my favorites. But honestly, everything else I’ve tried here has been delicious too.

Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to!“

“I tried the crab pad Thai that I saw on instagram it was really good and a new flavor I never had before. The Thai ice test was good I love the sealed top, so fun. 🤩 my husband liked his and it was the perfect spice for him, normally at other Thai spots in the South Bay it’s never hot enough for him so Im happy about that for him.“

“been ordering from here for a long time. it's a neighborhood staple. There are many Thai restaurants now but I always order here when I'm craving. the Mussamun curry is like crack lol. it hasn't changed much throughout the years which most of us know can happen frequently at our favorite restaurants. Nice family as well. Don't let these great family run restaurants go away.“

“1 hour massage and pad thai“
