Thai Daily BBQ — Restaurant in East Los Angeles

I've been a regular since it opened and had the tiny eating space. This place has done so well, they were able to buy the store front next to it and expand the eating area. I go there to write and quietly think to my self. There's Wi-Fi also, so that's nice. But the food, oh my! Honestly the best Pad Thai in East LA and Monterey Park! The coconut milk soup I order with tofu instead of chicken (Tom Kai Tofu). It's better than any I've tried anywhere, not kidding. This place is very caring. I lost a lot of weight going veganish, and looked as I felt, sickly. Bobby the owner special ordered a veggie tofu soup for me. Not too many places with customer service like that! They got a nice boba drink flavor selection too. I recommend taro. They do taste true to the flavors of the milk tea. Overall this place has earned their success with a reputation for delicious, perfectly seasoned, with big portions, food. Only eh is Monday they're closed, but they open right back up the next day. I definitely recommend this place for casual dining with an awesome ambience. Oh, and they serve beer with a purdy nice Asian import selection! I like Chang. If you go, buen provecho and...

If you want authenticity and taste, this is not the place.

I ordered the fried tofu as an appetizer... There was no crunch to it, it was just chewy. To make this worse, the sweet and sour sauce given to me was watered down. I paid 6 dollars only to get chewy tofu and watered down sauce?

The pad Thai with chicken had almost no flavor and had very little egg. I had to drown this dish in hot sauce in order for it to be edible. At least the chicken was cooked thoroughly.

The only positive I can give them is the fact that they provide large portions, but other than that I can't recommend neither of these dishes.

Ended up tossing most of the food in the trash. ☹️...

Although this place has a B, the food was really flavorful and they do give big portions, at a really good price too. Their boba is a really good price and it's chewy just the way it should be. The day we went there was a big line of people. That's how you know the food taste good. The orange chicken needs more orange flavor and the fried rice I thought tasted heavily of soy sauce. The chicken satay had some cartilage in it but overall they were big pieces of chicken thighs on a bamboo skewers. It came with toast, a cucumber salad in a small condiment container and peanut sauce with fried rice, overall it was lots of food for the price. I plan on going back to...
