One of my favorite places in LA. Here you can get an amazing lunch special, Taiwanese bubble tea, late night eats, shabu shabu, AYCE, Thai desserts, groceries and snacks. Cultural gold mine.
I've been coming here for decades for all the right reasons. Try the spicy raw crab "Thai Spicy" if you are an expert in competitive spicy eating competitions and want new bragging rights or a challenge.
In the late nineties, several Thai businesses decided to keep their businesses open very late to accommodate closing time at Hollywood bars and clubs in an effort to reduce DUI fatalities and to help keep people safe in the community.
My friends and I love those restaurants and we frequently dined there and referred our friends to here before driving home to show our support. Always a great meal!
Over the years, the businesses here continue to grow and thrive. Come here for legendary good vibes and epic food for a great bargain.
Five star friendly people hang out here too. Great place to trade smiles! Five...

But when we DO choose one of them, I’ll report it...
Read more3 star because of the valet parking situation, there is a scam. The Valet said if I park my own car, it is $6, but if you let them park, your car is $3. Got charged $6 for parking my own and went to eating at one of the restaurants in the plaza. The restaurant owner said you are only supposed to get charged $3 after the stamp on the ticket. It got me very suspicious because the valet wanted to park your car for a cheaper price and hold on to your keys so they could search your car for any valueble. As I was leaving, I saw one of the valet employees reverse the customer car and lightly hit the curb and stretch the bottom of the customer bumper.
Park here at your own risk if you...
