Si Laa is the golden standard of authentic Thai cuisine, and I am giving my highest recommendation possible!
The menu covers an amazing amount of territory, and everything I’ve tried has been ungodly delicious. From the Hidden Treasures appetizer (prawns/shrimp, blue crab meat, coconut curry) to something as simple as the Garlic and Ginger fried rice (convinced this could be the answer to World Peace), one can appreciate that every dish was undoubtedly prepared with care and attention.
At the end of the meal, we were greeted by the executive chef, and I must say, she is the epitome of the American dream. Legend has it that Leonardo DiCapario and Keanu Reeves are regulars here - if it’s good enough for these guys, it’s good enough for me!
Whilst some restaurant cut corners, I admire that Si Laa has kept true to form in pushing the envelope for how Thai food should be served. 5/5
Y’all have a customer for life 🙏

I am so excited to have found this family run Thai restaurant that is nice, but not stuffy, with amazing food and atmosphere (I ususally cannot hear anything in restaurants :( but not here). I cannot wait to return!

Nothing here but the best .
if you are looking for the best Thai food in town , you just found it.
After trying most of the menu it's really my best experience in Thai food. Even better the Lotus in Las Vegas
Not to forget the service that was lovely

It's a bit pricier than I'm comfortably paying. I ordered two starter items and waited for a bit for the food.
The food was excellent.

The best Thai food in LA, no question. Been customer for many years and appreciate the family who owns and runs the restaurant and never waivers on quality. Stay updated for their special dishes. Pro tip: check their wine list, unique selection and surprisingly affordable.

Exceptional. Would recommend coming in and enjoying the atmosphere and great staff.

This gem of a restaurant is the best kept secret in LA! It is our “go to” for celebrations as well as “I don’t want to cook tonight, what shall we do instead?” The family who owns and operates is second to none in authenticity as well as kindness. The short rib curry, hidden treasures, and wine from the Alsace region are must haves. As for everything else, you cannot go wrong!

Devils noodle was delicious! Amazing Wok Hay. We also ordered the lard chicken appetizer and the sweet and sour stir fry of chicken wrapped in lettuce is unlike anything I’ve ever had before!
Delicious :)

This amazing restaurant has somehow eluded me for many years. Upon entering, I found the restaurant filled with patrons who could attest to its quality.
The menu is diverse and delicious. Though not listed on the lunch menu, the House Fried Rice is an excellent choice.
The service was friendly, fast, and consistent.
If the front parking lot is full, you will find more around back, so don’t be deterred.

Si Laa is a fantastic Thai restaurant experience with a great mastery of taste and spices that will leave you wanting more.
We ordered the dumplings while I also ordered the short rib. Five dumplings are served which portion-wise, seem pretty small. Nevertheless, you have to love the spice and kick each one has. It has enough of a different taste to really intrigue you. The short rib was pretty amazing. The short rib itself melts in your mouth. Delicious. The green curry it comes in is also delicious and has a nice zest and spice. You have to also appreciate the pancakes it comes with. I do wish the portions were slightly bigger for the price you pay but the taste makes it worth it. They also have a variety of traditional Thai dishes like the pad see ew along with beer/Thai iced tea/wine and salads.
Parking is done on the street level. The decor is clean and simple and the servers are very kind.
Si Laa is highly recommended to any Thai fan and anyone seeking a slightly different Thai experience.

Great Thai spot in this area. Really low key restaurant that's quiet. Most of the food we had was really good. Highly recommend the pad see you with the short rib cooked perfectly soft, green curry with the very flakey roti, prime beef satay, and the Thai iced tea was perfectly sweet. Only thing was the bill was a bit more than expected but after 20% tip and tax it was 55 and we had lots of leftovers. But for how good the food was and service and considering it's West LA, seems about right.

Si Laa is one of the best hidden gems in la. The food is amazing, the service is great and it's the perfect little restaurant. It's a family-owned business with the daughters running the front end and the mother and grandmother in the kitchen. Very authentic and all around amazing food. Hard-pressed to find this combo elsewhere in la.

Cozy atmosphere with delicious food and super friendly service! The beef satay was good for starters but the duck in the plum sauce was to die for! Definitely the reason I'd go back. Only drawback is charging $4 for a small sidebowl of white rice. That should just be part of the meal or priced into the dish.
Brad Peppard
We had four appetizers, three were delicious and the fourth was okay, and an order of PadThai noodles which was excellent. We shared three beers. The service was excellent. The only problem was the bill... $90!!!! Plus tip. Yikes!
Gary Der Arakelian
Most plates are pretty delicious. Service can be better. The focus was missing despite we were almost the only table.
