I was super hype to try something new and lately I been craving Thai food. yet, I wanted to try a different place. So i just started driving and ended up GM Kitchen solely by accident. Excited I rushed in saw they were packed so I figured the food must be smackin. So, I sat down in the lobby and waited to order to go. 5 minutes turned in to 10 minutes and so I stood up and looked around still no one offered to help me. So, I walked around the corner because the cash register is next to bathroom for some reason. While waiting for someone to take my order. I heard someone come in the restaurant and immediately some staff member came out to help her she was Asian by the way. Just then the lady who just came in saw me looking and shrugged her shoulders as if to say to me, "have you ordered yet?". I guess she could see on my face I was not happy. That's when the staff member looked up and saw me looking at her like??? I was here waiting. At this point I was still prepared to forgive maybe she didnt see me. So, the staff member walked up to me and asked what I needed? Duh, I wanted to order. The lady who I think was the manager doubled down on her racism then POINTED to the front like I was a dog and asked me to have a seat and wait to order. I politely said ok and I simply walked out. Now at this point my feelings were stung because she was ready to take the other ladies order right away but asked me to sit and wait after I had been there for 10 minutes waiting. Now if I was high strung I quite possibly would have made a scene, but I figured that would only work to justify her nasty attitude. But really wanted to let her have it. But I just left...but I was seething inside. I googled another Thai spot not far from there in Noho. I found a spot called "THAI VICTORY" of all places. I though the name vindicated my recent treatment at he racist grandma kitchen. I walked in and was immediately greeted and offered a menu. I ordered about $45-$50 worth of food. Then the chef came out as I was waiting and asked me how I wanted my food? I thought to myself wow that was ok humanity. We spoke for a second and he went back to prepare my food. They were crowded too. When my food came out I told him about how "Grandma Thai" treated me. And he apologized for them as if to say were not all like that and I agreed. Got my food in 10 minutes but stayed 10 more minutes talking to host who was pregnant. I gave a $20 tip and left. The food at THAT VICTORY was unbelievable and I was treated like a REAL human being. So I have to thank "grandma thai" if they had not been racist to me I would never found such a top notch family friendly Thai Restaurant. Thai Victory Huh? yes it sure was. I'm sorry this is so long. But I had to tell the WHOLE story for context of how racism can block your blessing and offer it to someone else. Thai Victory!! it sure was. as Grandma kitchen....Grand ma...
Read moreOrdered from them last night and it has to be the worst Thai food we've ever had in our life. The Tom Yum soup was so insanely spicy it was inedible. And we like spicy foods but this was just off the charts. Like literally burning your mouth and throat.
The Udon noodle dish tasted like mop water, awful and smelled a little funny. We couldn't have more than one taste of the noodles and that was enough. The yellow curry was ok, chicken was a like stringy and still pretty bland in flavor compared to other yellow curries we've had but at least somewhat edible. The white rice was good and that's about it.
Worst part is that they won't even refund our money. Uber eats just ignores us so they should take it upon themselves to refund people on inedible orders of over spiced food and mop water noodles that they serve to people. They should stand by their food and help dissatisfied customers to avoid bad reviews.
And as you can see from my pics that I took today the food was not eaten. Not even a little bit.
Never ordering from them again and if you were wise neither would you. There's tons of better Thai restaurants in Burbank. Too bad we decided to give them a chance. We ended up eating frozen chicken tenders from...
Read moreThis place isn't too far away from where I live. I normally like to stay in my neighborhood and wouldn't go out towards where this place is located. I got a great deal on a Groupon and chose this place man was I surprised. Great little place very simple best thing the food oh my gosh the food I'm a vegetarian which kind of sucks sometimes. I ended up going with the Kung Pao tofu for $10 I got two meals it was fresh and satisfying I definitely will go back and probably buy a few meals at a time a friend of mine was with me and got Pumpkin Curry and never heard of that and she loved it it was just a great place to go to and the value was great not including the Groupon with the $20 Groupon our bill came to $11 so for two people to eat and have drinks...
