Nestled in the vibrant heart of Los Angeles on Vine Street, King's Thai Food is much more than a typical Thai restaurant—it's a culinary journey into the rich and authentic flavors of Thailand's street food culture. Specializing in Southeast Asian cuisine, this charming eatery offers an immersive dining experience that captures the essence of traditional Thai cooking while catering perfectly to modern appetites and convenience with meal delivery options.
Step inside and you’re welcomed by a warm, unpretentious atmosphere where the passion for Thai flavors shines through every dish. The menu is a vibrant tapestry of bold spices, fresh herbs, and thoughtfully crafted recipes, designed to satisfy both classic cravings and adventurous palates. A standout is the King's Pad Thai Hor Kai (ผัดไทยห่อไข่), a beloved street food delicacy where rice noodles are stir-fried in a house-made tamarind sauce and crowned with ground peanuts and a delicate omelet wrap — every bite bursts with the perfect harmony of sweet, tangy, and savory.
If you’re seeking something comforting yet packed with flavor, the Panang Moo offers a luscious red curry reduction infused with kaffir lime leaves and bell peppers, stewed until the pork loin reaches unparalleled tenderness. Not to be missed, the Thai BBQ Ribs and Shrimp Fried Rice add a smoky, satisfying element to your meal that keeps guests coming back for more.
Starters like the King's Satay bring an elevated nostalgia — traditionally marinated beef skewers grilled to perfection and served with a standout peanut sauce and crisp cucumber mélange reminiscent of a classic Thai evening street snack. The King's Roll, fresh and vibrant with shrimp, vermicelli noodles, and crunchy veggies wrapped in rice paper, is paired expertly with homemade hoisin and sweet & sour sauces for a refreshing contrast.
Patrons rave about both the food and service. From Riley Lucas complimenting the generous portion sizes and fresh delivery, to Sebastiano Pestoni, who crowned King's Thai Food as “a tiny little piece of heaven” with an 11/10 rating for their Amber Curry, real customers sing praises about the authenticity and heart poured into every plate. Zaza that speaks to the lightning-fast service without compromising quality, while Ashton Parsons applauds the impeccable spice balance and warm customer care that makes you feel truly welcome.
Beyond the mouthwatering dishes and vibrant flavors, what truly sets King’s Thai Food apart is the genuine connection to Thai culture.

Ordered the pineapple fried rice, chicken pad see ew and orange chicken. Taste of all the dishes wasn’t bad at all and prices quite reasonable for the quality and quantity. Servings were very generous. Ordered via uber eats and was still quite fresh by the time the order arrived.
Tiny little piece of heaven. Some of the best Thai Food I had in LA. Amber curry was delicious. I also had fried chicken gyosa as appetizers and they were bomb. On the negative side? I should have came hungrier and order more food. 11/10. WILL. BE. BACK.
An incredible combination of traditional Thai flavor and Incredibly fast speed. Food came very quick and the quality was there! 5 stars, would recommend to anyone who likes Thai culture.
Cute little place, incredible service. Two sweet people working. The food is amazing and I can’t recommend this enough. Spice on point. The service really sold me too. Definitely a place to stop by if you live here or are visiting! A+
We found this gem randomly when we were desperately looking for a place to eat and couldnt have been happier. The owner welcomed us friendly and then gave us the most caring and authentic dining experience we’ve had since being in Thailand. The food was amazing, cheap compared to most other places in LA, and well portioned. The service was incredible. The owner chatted with us, gave us free Thai Iced Tea and even PROMISED TO GIVE US A DINNER ON THE HOUSE before our return flight to Germany next week. You just don’t see this type of stuff often. Do yourself a favor and visit this nice man and his authentic, hole in the wall piece of Thailand in the middle of LA!
Solid Thai food with great customer service. What it lacks in ambiance they make up for with food quality and service. More of a take out setup, a few tables inside should you care to eat in. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Portions are good value for money. Have enjoyed all the dishes and go often. Two reserved parking spaces in the lot. Highly recommend.
