Charm Siam Restaurant

Friendly service and authentic Thai food in Long Beach. we loved everything we ordered. Our favorite dish was the whole fish with the sauce on the side. It was fried perfectly and the sauce added a nice touch of sweetness and sour. Basil fried rice was amazing. First thing you notice is the amount Thai basil flavor in every bite. They do a good job of balancing the sweetness with the savoryness of the basil. If you're a big fan of basil, you're going to love this.Lastly, we had to try their Khao soi. we asked for it with crispy pork. The crispy/chewy pork was cooked perfectly. It was both chewy and meaty. The curry broth was thick and souper flavorful. It coated everything inside and made everything delicious. We'll be back soon!We wish it was mango season, but we ordered a coconut ice cream with roti. It was so special. I never tried anything like this before.

Have had this spot bookmarked for a while and was finally in LB to try it. There's street parking near it and along the cross streets. I came with a party of 4 for lunch on a Sunday and we were seated immediately.The menu is simple and had pictures which was helpful. We got:Papaya salad e-San style: (5/5) it was refreshing and def fishy in a good way. I wish the small crab legs inside were peeled thoughThai sausage: (5/5) not really a sausage person but damn this was so good and fresh. It comes with a semi sweet sauce.BBQ pork noodle: (5/5) really tasty but the soup it came with was a bit blandKhao Soi: (5/5) fire. Chicken laid on top was perfectly crispy and tender on the inside. The pickled radish and chili elevated it even moreNot pictured was a Thai tea which was great and my friends Pad Thai which she said was probably the best she's had ever and portion was huge.Service was friendly and attentive, well be back!

Everything I had from this place was delicious and competitively priced! I've been craving Thai food, and I joined a large party for dinner. Service is fast, patient, and accomodating. I've had Thai restaurants that lean a bit too salty and sugary, but everything here tasted true-to-source. The food is fragrant, fresh, spicy (VERY spicy when it needs to be, which is a good sign), and flavorful. The pineapple fried rice had a great texture (when the oil is fresh and the rice is cooked under high heat). I loved everything I ate-- my favorite is the khao soi! Please give this small business a try! I'm already thinking about making the drive to Long Beach just for this place...

Great little restaurant had the Kao Soi, I love this dish and this is one of the best I've ever had! The grilled chicken inside was moist and cooked well, the curry was very flavorful and the perfect consistency! Their chilis were also incredible. Service was very accommodating and helpful. We also had their new Thai tea basque cheesecake very very good.

I've been wanting to try this Thai restaurant after seeing it on social media and finally got to try it. It is located in the Alamitos Beach neighborhood, so it's street parking only and can be hard to find, especially at night. Inside, the ambiance was nice, it feels like a hole in the wall. I ordered their most popular dish which was the Khao soi. It was probably one of the best Khao soi I've had. The broth was rich and thick, not watery like other places. It came with a lot of chicken too, grilled and seasoned. Overall, a nice solid Thai restaurant in the area. Hope to come back and try other dishes off the menu!

This may be my new favorite Thai place in OC, specifically Long Beach. It's a smaller restaurant but their customer service and flavors are out of this world. I came here for dinner w a few of my girlfriends and the waiter would refill our waters without us having to flag him down.We ordered quite a lot of dishes and they all were such hits:Clear noodle salad (5/5): I've never ordered this dish before but where has it been all my life??? It's the perfect balance of savory and tangy!! Super refreshing. The lime/fish sauce is sooo good and the seafood has the perfect cook. I will definitely be trying to replicate this dish at home. Boat noodle (5/5): literally cannot go wrong this dish, so flavorful omg.Kao Soi (5/5): unpopular opinion but I was not a fan of Kao Soi UNTIL I tried it at this location... omg when I tell you the flavors transported me back to my childhood... it reminds me of my grandma's cooking. Drunken noodle (4/5): good classic noodle dish, I would love to try a different dry noodle dish when I come back another time tho.Thai basque cheesecake (100000/5): omg, it's such a unique flavor profile?? Both the Thai tea and cheesecake has such subtle flavors that it blends so well together. Had to order another one to-go for my boyfriend to try.I will DEFINITELY be coming back with my boyfriend who is Thai to see if it gets a stamp of approval by him. Definitely a new favorite!

Yo. Some of the best pad see ew I've ever had. Great service and fast. The restaurant is clean and has plenty of seating. I think it cost me $15 or so. So that's fair. Flavor was good. I got the bbq pork a my protein. Portions were good. No complaints here. Definitely coming back if I'm in the area. Keep up the good work. See you soon

Happened to be in the neighborhood and it was nearing dinner time and decided to stop in. I knew it was a brand new place but I could not figure out what it used to be before until I googled the address and it was Thai Silk! Well, lemme tell ya, I hadn't been to Thai Silk in years; however, Charm Siam is SO MUCH BETTER!It was busy and that's usually an indicator that the food is good. We started off with the veggie egg rolls, which were served up piping hot and fresh along with this delicious sweet sauce. They were not greasy and definitely crispy!Next up was the hot pot of coconut curry soup (or at least that's what I called it) and it was so flavorful and delish! I had ordered it as my entree; however, my friend wanted some as well so I hesitantly shared lol. He ordered the BBQ pork fried rice and I am not big on fried rice but I added some to my soup since he wanted some of mine (it was ok but not piping hot and was rather dry).Ended our meal sharing a generous slice of Thai tea cheesecake and it was so delicious! Cannot wait to go back! Service was excellent and the staff was so nice and friendly, definitely a neighborhood gem!

10/10 best Thai food I've had in Southern California. No notes. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying. Service was great too.

WHAT A GEM! This place is amazing. We spent a few days in Long Beach after evacuating during the LA Fired and stumbled upon Charm. Every dish we ate was perfect. Best pad see ew we've ever had. Kao soi was great, super tender chicken and incredible broth. The mango sticky rice stole the show at the end as well.
