Krathom Lek

Ordered teriyaki chicken, egg rolls and Thai tea to go. The menu pictures looked appetizing but my teriyaki chicken was sans teriyaki. The chicken was crispy fried and over cooked making it tough. That was $15. Although the portion was generous, it's a pass. The $8 egg rolls were good and came with 5 total rolls. The chili dipping sauce was also very tasty. Thai tea was also good albeit a tad on the sweet side for a reasonable price of $5. I'll be trying more items from the menu to give this spot another shot at impressing. Good not great. Better Thai close by.

I was craving Thai food and decided to give this place a shot as I'd never been, and had seen great reviews. I'm going to be honest I left this place knowing I wouldn't be back. The service is super friendly so 10/10 for that, but the food was over priced for the quality of food, and not something I'd have again. The spring roll had a piece of chicken in each one measuring the size of my pinky finger. It might as well have been a veggie spring roll. I only ate half of a spring roll I didn't care for the sauce it was served with it. The dish lacked major flavor. The first bite I took of my noodles was not bad, but as I kept eating all I could taste was oil. Will just say I left most of the food behind and ended up feeling a little sick.

Went there with a friend to eat last night and arrived at 6:35 pm I get told they won't serve as they are closing soon. Sign on door says they close at 8:00 pm. When I inquired about the 8:00 time she said yes they close at 8:00 pm. So when is 6:35 pm 8:00 pm ? Left and found another place to eat at 7:00 pm with a closing time of 8:00 pm and they welcomed us.When you close due to lack of business you have no one to blame but yourself. With a few tables being served out of the 15 that were empty it's hard to see how you will be around long.

I'm VERY picky when it comes to PHO. I moved from an area where I was spoiled to have so many places that had PHO. LA to OC and anything in between. Growing up in Long Beach you had Cambodia town. Need I say more :) moving up here was very hard to find any kind of Asian place. Thai, Vietnamese, Cambodian I love it all. I seen this place and I knew I had to give it a try. I wasn't feeling well and I knew some PHO would help out. I did not Dine in I ordered it to go. I had the large chicken PHO, the egg rolls and the pad see Eww. This review is just based on those items. The pho was decent. Okay. The broth wasn't as flavorful as the broth at Davorns. The ingredients seemed clean but if you want good PHO I'd recommend davorns place. The egg rolls though, we're some of the BEST egg rolls I have ever had. Delicious. The pad see Eww. Was okay at first but I ended up having to throw it away because a part of it tasted spoiled! I wasn't there long to get much customer service but the cashier was nice.

Amazing authentic Laotian food, we happened to be in town and found this spot on yelp, did not regret giving this restaurant a shot. Food was amazing, only down side was we waited roughly 45 minutes for our meal to be served, understandable that the meals we ordered were going to take a while to be cooked. I would come back when I am in the area visiting.

I ordered the pad Thai, spring rolls, and yellow curry. The pad Thai was good but could do with a bit more flavor. The spring rolls were good but it was mostly a giant veggie roll with a tiny amount of protein. The yellow curry was inedible for me. The entire top centimeter was just oil, and no matter how much I stirred I couldn't get it to mix. I did try it, but all I could really taste was oil and ended up tossing it in the trash.

I cannot possibly tell you how amazing this food was!!! We ordered green papaya salad- just the smell alone will have you salivating! The taste- WOW! A must order is the Green & Red Curry- perfect balance of herbs and coconut milk, perfect sticky rice. The Drunken Noodles! We had to force ourselves from finishing everything!The service was really great, super friendly and was knowledgeable about the dishes- If you have a Thai Food urge- Krathom Lee will not disappoint!!!

Be careful. Check the food before eating. Insect was found in the papaya salad. Won't be ordering from here again unfortunately.

I come here quite often. I'm obsessed with the chicken Tom Kha soup. I've had it at another local place and theirs does not even begin to compare to how Krathom's tastes. It's seriously so delish. My only complaint is consistency. I wish whoever is making it made it the same every time. It's a very simple ingredient soup and I've noticed nearly every time I get it, it's missing an ingredient. Sometimes it's missing lemongrass, other times it doesn't have onions (soup is literally spices, onions, protein & mushrooms in a broth) and it's disappointing because the soup has literally 3 main things in it so when the mushrooms are missing it's legit so disappointing and most of the time it's missing the mushrooms. Like I said, I've had it missing everything at some point or another. Even the galangal root! Other than that everything is good here. My partner gets the beef pho and he really likes it. This place is great for trying something new.

I JUST FOUND A ROACH IN MY FOOD ABSOLUTELY NOT !! I ordered the chicken basil and was already half way through my meal when i saw it in my stir fry! I Immediately spit out my food and called the waitress over. She apologized and to the roach to the back to show her manager. Came back and told me that they had no idea how that got in their and said they wouldn't charge us for that plate. They were nice about it but definitely NEVER COMING BACK!
