Tahntawan Thai Kitchen

Ok, so it’s been over a year since I’ve tried this place, and wrote the previous review. Considering they also have a Thai Massage business next door, I guess I should have lowered my expectations. It was horrible AGAIN…
No greeting, or smiles when you get there by the staff of one, very unhappy looking young lady who seemed overwhelmed just dealing with my take-​out order, another phone call take-​out order, and with only two customers sitting down eating. She never even looked at me, or talked to me. She just pushed the bill towards me while she was on the phone without even a smile, or a «thank you». I actually felt sorry for her because she looked so unhappy.
I ordered their most popular soup, the Boat Noodle soup with beef, and walked one block to my house to eat it. The good news is that the portion size is decent, and they package the noodles, and toppings separate from the broth so it won’t over cook while in transit. But, the beef was so chewy, overcooked, flavorless, and for the most part, INEDIBLE, again. The broth was, again, bland and tasted like it came from the supermarket. So, I tried to doctor it up with ingredients I keep at home, which helped with the broth a bit, but not the meat which I kept trying to chew, but ended up spitting it out.
Lesson learned. Never again.

Definitely my third favorite Thai food place ever. I probably should have reviewed this place years ago. Be prepared to wait for the best food ever, unless you arrive as soon as they open. A definite must and highly recommended!

very bad at timing, food is good nothing special, we had to wait 30min to have noodles, then 10 to have a plate with 2 forks and 1 knif, no water refil… horrible service!!!

i hate to give a bad review but they have messed up my last 5 orders and i think people deserve to know. I have done both delivery and pick up and they have messed up both. I always ask for no chicken and ³⁄₅ times they put chicken on both the items I ordered even though I put no chicken in the notes (i ordered online) and followed up with a call to the restaurant and told them personally. It is disappointing to get delivery or pick up your food and when you get home the order is cooked wrong (the wrong meat) or missing condiments that you asked for like chili paste. The food is decent but they consistently make mistakes and seem incapable of getting a simple order right. It’s unfortunate but I have had to start ordering from other restaurants because it is so annoying.

Have only done take out and delivery. Food is average. I was a fan until I learned that most all meat is frozen from Costco. The green beans are shriveled up in the sauce. NEVER order shrimp to go or for delivery. By the time it arrives you have rubber. Many times the staff has a hard time understanding you on the phone. The owner is nice though. The consistency of the food has decreased lately. Wish there was a better alternative in the Marina. Would prefer to give 2 ½ stars.

We always order take out food here and never really came here. So we decided to go ahead and come here! The salad was good! I love the dressing. We got fried rice and coconut soup. The coconut soup made our stomachs hurt so be advice if you’re a little lactose intolerant. The service good. She doesn’t speak English that well and for that, she was pretty good! It’s a nice Thai restaurant near our place and we would come again!

They advertise they have Phở. I went there and asked for chicken phở with and onions or green onions. It came back with green onions. I asked for it to be removed. When the soup came back they add garlic without asking and I don’t like garlic. I ask them why they would add garlic when it was never on the original order. She took the order back a third time. This time I asked for it to be packed up to go. Once I got home, I opened the soup and it had white onions in it… By this time I was not happy and I called and spoke to them saying that I would like to bring back the soup and I want my money back… They hung up on me and I called 3 more times and they never picked up… I did have the soup and it was the worst Phở I’ve ever had in my life. I will stop by there place very soon and still demand my money back.

I really like their curry. The outdoor seating is very cool. Good Thai iced tea and all that. Yum!

I hate to write a bad review, especially when they were so nice.
I just had the most disgusting Pad Thai ever. It was basically very little noodles drenched in duck sauce, yes duck sauce. The place was floating in this sweet sauce. It was gross and I couldn’t eat it. Also I could hear the chef sneezing while making my food.
Never again! And if I’m sick from food poisoning or a cold in the next day, I’ll know where I got it from.

Its right down the street from my house. It’s my go to Thai restaurant. I have not been thrilled with the last few times I ordered. I feel like it needs to improve of I will seek out another Thai place. Pad See Eew was pretty good. Phở needs some help. and Wonton soup would be great if the wontons didn’t fall apart.

Nice outdoor seating area. Papaya Salad is very tasty.

Pretty good Phở for the Marina area, wish they delivered more condiments with their soup though. Delivery is decent, depends on the time you order but I guess that’s not the place’s fault as for Eat24.

Hands down my favorite Thai restaurant on the Westside! It reminds me of Mom’s cooking. I know that I probably have mentioned that statement in previous reviews… but this is the ISH! I love pork, therefore what’s not to love when ordering the Crispy Pork and Chinese Broccoli for lunch EVERYDAY?! It’s delicious! Thanks in part to my «Thai-​glish» I get major kudos for trying to speak my native language.
I haven’t been to the restaurant since Eat24 and Unilocal joined forces so I can get more work done (actually laziness on my part) I don’t get out much!
I enjoyed their fish cakes which comes with tangy sweet and sour dipping sauce. Made from scratch and it’s insanely addicting! If you like curries, try their Panang Curry which is coconut base and I love mine very spicy! Enjoy this with some rice, please, because it’ll offset the strong ingredients in the curry. I basically have tried almost everything on the menu! So don’t take my word for it! Go out or order your next meal. I’m sure you’ll be very satisfied!
Khorb Khun Na Ka!

This place has gone downhill. I used to think it was decent Thai food but my last visit was horrible. The BBQ chicken we got tasted like it was reheated from yesterday’s batch and the fried rice was so bland! We tried to add soy sauce to make it taste better but no luck! Only thing we liked was the coconut water! So sad because it’s our local joint but we can never eat there again

Although some Thai places are bound to be better than others, I have never actually thought that the food I ordered at any Thai place was actually BAD – until this place. Worst green curry I’ve ever had. I wasn’t even able to finish half of my order, which was fortunate, as I’m PRETTY sure that the restaurant erred in telling me that there was no soy in the green curry (I’ll spare you the details of my morning-​after curry eating experience). I’m really surprised that a place in such an affluent area could be this inedible. The guy I ate with didn’t finish his curry, either, and he didn’t want to eat either of the two curries as leftovers; so this wasn’t just me.

My 4 star from BBQ Chicken, OnChoy vegetable, Spicy catfish everything is tasty. Amazing delicious. 1 more star for $ 3 beer

I have only ordered pad Thai from this location a few times, but I think the last pick up will be my last. Every order tastes the same: hard noodles with rubbery chewy tofu. This location is convenient but the food quality isn’t so great.

Phở was perfectly proportioned. Delicious! Chicken Larb was great also. Spicy dishes were almost authentic ‘spicy’ not Wimpy spicy.
Awesome place!

I ordered the Pad Thai and ordered it medium spicy. No exaggeration, this is literally the blandest food I’ve ever eaten. There was absolutely no flavor spicy or otherwise.
I ended up throwing more than half of it away because I’d rather be hungry than eat flavorless mush.

Lunch on a week day, not too busy at all. I was impressed by their view of Washington Blvd and their cute little patio, but I was not very impressed with their food.
I was generic and got the Pad See Ew. Their dishes cost a few dollars more than the equivalent you’d get at other Thai restaurants down the street on Washing Blvd further away from the beach. Staff was friendly and service was average and straight to the point. The Pad See Ew was really salty and overly peppered. One of those meals where I had to get a smoothie immediately afterwards.
