A mellow spot to grab some Thai food--Same Same offers some classic comfort dishes. The dining room is easy to enjoy, and the food comes out as you would expect it. Service is simple, and in this case no news is good news. If you're in the neighborhood and you want an affordable meal, Same Same is a great option.

I was craving Burmese styled food tonight and I realized that the restaurant I was intending to go to was out of business. So we decided to go next door. This Thai food was actually pretty darn good. They definitely did it right. Not only was the food good, but the ambiance had this intimate, trendy, fun feel to it.The servers were great. And it was just an overall nice experience.Glad to have tried it out tonight! It was definitely a fun silverlake experience here.

The staff were welcoming. The service was not so great. I dined with a few friends and we ordered their pad see ew, pad Thai, and grilled chicken. The flavors for each dish were lacking. There was a human hair on the pad se ew. It look a while for one of the plates to arrive. The restaurant was extremely loud, it was a little difficult to hear each other. We had to lean forward and somewhat shout to converse. I don't see myself returning.

I dont like writing bad reviews but the green curry was absolutely awful it tasted a bit like vomit - i even called them to ask if they accidentally used off coconut milk but they said they out their coconut milk in the fridge. It was watery and didn't taste like green curry at all. Very very disappointed - the rice portion was tiny - the container is already tiny and it was half empty - so sad

The food here is astounding!! Cannot stress enough how good the food and ambiance is. The lighting is great everything is very clean and the service is not bad. If busy service can take a little bit but that's to be expected. Overall 12/10 experience and will be going back frequently.

This is my friend group's absolute favorite Thai spot! The food never misses no matter what you order. The service is always attentive and quick and the vibe inside is perfectly casual and fun.The staff is quick and attentive and always happy to give you recommendations on things you're unsure of. I switch up my order here often and have always left satisfied. I love their chicken wings and mango sticky rice the most! I also appreciate their non-dairy option for the Thai tea.

At a very unassuming location in a strip mall plaza in Silverlake, this is probably the best Thai food I have had in a long time. It's authentic & family owned. The service was super friendly & our server Brady was very knowledgeable about the menu & with recommendations. We ordered their crispy veggie spring rolls, grilled oyster mushroom naked salad (my favorite) & the Panang curry with tofu & rice on the side. It was so much food & so delicious my mouth is watering writing this review. Will definitely be back soon!

Food service ambience was great. They close at 11 and at 945 a couple came in and they were told they could only get take out. WTF this rubbed me the wrong way. Tonight was bad customer service that's for sure. I could understand if it were 10:45 but refusing service when you are still open for an hour and 15. Not good

We ordered the papaya salad, chili and holy basil stir fry with tofu, and pad kee mao with tofu. The menu lists all these dishes as ones that can be made vegan, but they actually came and tasted a little fish sauce-y, and the fishy taste lingered after. Not sure if that was a one-off communication issue with the kitchen or if this is always how it is but I don't think I'll be back for food with the other dependable vegan/vegetarian Thai options in the area. Their tapioca pudding for dessert was incredibly delicious and I would come back for that.
