Thai Dishes

I was disappointed to find that Thai Dishes, which used to be one of the best Thai restaurants in town (5 years ago), has gone way downhill. I recently ordered the coconut milk soup, pork larb salad and beef with broccoli and they were all disappointing. The quality of the meat is terrible. The pork was grisly and the beef was a cheap cut and tough. Also, there was very little beef vs. broccoli, which was also overcooked. I also recently ordered one of their house specials, the shrimp with green beans and red beans in a red curry paste and that was not executed well either. The green beans were overcooked, the shrimp was small and tough and there were only about 4 shrimps in the dish. Management must be suffering financially because they are skimping on quality ingredients and a good chef. What a shame.

Want to feel as sick to your stomach as I do right now? Then head on over to Thai Dishes. Feel like eating low-rate fast food at restaurant prices? Then head on over to Thai Dishes!

Thai Dishes, where every food that could possibly originate from a can, does! Only at Thai Dishes. The carrots? Canned. (And cubed! Thanks for cutting them carrots, giant machine 12,000 miles from here) The peas? Canned. (And extra dry! Thanks, long trip from a dilapidated farmhouse somewhere in the Urals!) The food? Nasty.

Save your money. Eat a Twinkie. You'll feel less disgusting afterwards.

I have been to many Thai restaurants around the world and I accidentally found this one while driving on Wilshire Blvd. I decided to try it and have been going there with my girlfriend for 3 years now. I lived in Europe, Australia, New York, DC and here in LA and I love Thai food and been to Thai restaurants in many cities throughout the world. this one is truly the best one I have been to. And on top of all it is very inexpensive and very clean.
The menu is very extensive and the portions are very big. The only con may be that the service can be a little faster but that is rarely a problem. I highly recommend it.

I had a office lunch for 20 to plan and I had to impress our out of town guests, Thai Dishes sounded great.
Everything was wonderful, the steamed dumplings were killer, the pad thai noodles were awesome and I could live on the pineapple fried rice. One of the best parts was that they delivered. If you haven't been here you need to try it, the prices are very reasonable. I will definately make it one of the office's regular eating places. They also have killer Thai Tea.

I love this place, although I think of it as a good 'can't be bothered to cook' pop in rather than a destination for a planned dinner out. That said, you often see couples on dates or families celebrating an occasion. Dishes are tasty and the menu is big, but best of all both food and alcohol are super inexpensive ... I can get a nice glass of wine with my meal for about four bucks!
