Review Summer Canteen - Los Angeles

Candice Escoto
I've been visiting Summer canteen for at least the last five years. Probably longer. It is good food. I wouldn't say it's completely authentic Thai food and it is a little bit on the sweeter side. I do think it's a solid choice for Thai food in the area though. The atmosphere is okay. I find the dining area a little uncomfortable and it's usually kind of cold inside....but I would rather that vs too hot. Most of the dishes are very good. I will say that orange chicken is consistently overcooked.

Good location for an outdoor snack. The ambulance dine in is pleasant. Menu includes happy hour drinks, salads, Thai dishes to take away tea and coffee. Good customer service

Wow! This place is amazing! I came here with a friend on a Monday afternoon, and we were seated immediately. The atmosphere was lovely and peaceful, and the staff were super friendly. Our food arrived quickly after ordering and was absolutely delicious. The portions were generous and the prices were reasonable. I love that they offer a nice variety of vegetarian options, and use Impossible meats in the vegetarian dishes. I had the Impossible Drunken Noodles, and honestly, I can't stop thinking about it, (I'll definitely be beck). Everything was cooked to perfection. The Thai Iced Coffee was amazing too. If you're in the area, this place is not to be missed. I'd give 10 stars if I could.

Absolutely delicious, with great service to boot. Highly recommend the curry noodles if you want a rich, hearty flavor. Notable beer selection. If you're in the area, it's worth a visit!

So far I've had the pork belly, calamari, tom-kha soup, egg rolls, garlic noodles with beef, and drunken noodles with chicken and tofu. The pork belly was amazing!!!!!! The drunken noodles are my favorite and never disappoint...I'll be back to try some other dishes but WOW THE PORK BELLY OMG OMG OMG

Great flavors and garnished well. Will definitely come back for the Pad Thai. And really want to try the green curry

Summer Canteen continues to impress and consistently delivers excellent food and service. Since moving to the area eight years ago this has been one of my top favorite restaurants in the city. I have never had a bad dish or bad service. The food here is freshly prepared and served hot with a smile. If you love Thai food or if you have never tried Thai food, you WILL love this place. And to turn it up a notch, I would say it's Thai Fusion cuisine. The restaurant has recently added a new happy hour menu with drink and appetizer specials. And continues to offer great lunch combo specials. Now go get your grub on!

I am a local and dine here as well as order take-out quite often. The food is always on point. The drunken noodle is something to rave about and I crave it constantly!! It's fresh, flavorful and spicy. Just what I would want from Thai food. The curry noodle is also a great, comforting dish. It hits the spot on a rainy day. The service is friendly, but leaves something to be desired in terms of efficiency, especially if you sit out of eye sight. You kind of feel like they've forgotten about you. But I will always come back for the wonderful food and lovely ambiance.

This place is great. I usually get the same thing every time I go - Green curry with brown rice and tofu (but sometimes chicken or steak). It is one of my favorite meals to get in the neighborhood. It is very filling and delicious. They have great lunch specials and a killer Thai tea.

Food was terrific and tasty. Service was great, prompt, and attentive. I like their lunches and the portions are right sized and atmosphere is great. Wish there was a little more parking but that's the only drawback. Still just as good and a delicious spot for lunch.

Food here is delicious! Love their chicken wings and fried tofu appetizers. The Panang beef, sweet n sour chicken and vegetable stir fry with shrimps are the best tasting Thai dishes I've had so far. I highly recommend this place, but do come early, before noon I you can to avoid the lunch crowd and have a parking space.

There are lots of Thai restaurants in my neighborhood but with the nice service and excellent food this has become my go to place. Serving staff is very accommodating and helpful. I especially like the curries and their brown rice is the best! Take out is prepared quickly, wrapped well and is just as delicious as eating in. Highly recommended.

Staff is always very friendly and attentive. You can taste the difference in their use of high quality ingredients. The restaurant itself is very cute and pleasant to be in- especially for an easy place to eat out on a weeknight. Food is consistently tasty, and I haven't had a bad meal yet. The dishes I've had always hit that magic Thai sweet/sour/spicey/savory combo that I crave so much. Summer Canteen is exactly what it advertises. My only complaint- I almost wish it was a little more crowded, it's earned it!

I love this place! Nice simple decor, very open. Great staff and service. Food presentation is lovely. Dishes we've had so far: Pad See U - good Summer rolls - good Green Papaya and Shrimp Salad - excellent Spicy Coconut Milk Chicken Soup - excellent Pad Thai - excellent, not overly sweet like a lot of places Braised lamb shank in mussamun curry - good
