Die besten thailändische Restaurants in South Los Angeles

Fantastic experience, food, and service. Cannot wait to go back!

Great flavors and presentation on all disheThai. The party of three enjoyed the fresh green rolls, garlic noodles, seabass with curry rice, and pad thai. Finished off our meal with mango sticky rice. We are coming back to this restaurant!

wonderful atmosphere with delicious cocktails, good food and large portions.

Everything was delicious. Best Thai we've had in ages!

I've done quite a bit of West Coast tasting menu fine dining (Providence, Melisse, and French Laundry, etc.) along with Japanese style grill dining (Yakitori and Robata yaki's in SoCal, most recently ToriMatsu in Gardena) so I was truly excited to try the tasting offered by Yhing Yhang BBQ - a Thai-focused grill inspired by the street cuisine of Thailand -- it was just the thing to satiate adventurous taste buds. I'm no stranger to local modern Thai cuisine either - my faves are Luv2Eat Thai Bistro and Night + Market Song. For traditional, I enjoy Lacha Somtum and Mae Malai in Thai town. I visited Yhing Yhang BBQ by the Holy Basil folks at their Maydan Market location in early January 2026 and whatever kitchen inconsistencies may have existed in October/November 2025 were non-existent during our visit. All proteins (fish, shellfish, chicken, sausages, and pork collar) were cooked perfectly, flavors were on point, and table service was efficient without being intrusive and the server described each dish in a concise, quick and pleasant manner. Ordering the delicious specialty non-alcoholic drinks at Compass Rose next door and having them brought to Yhing Yhang's tasting counter was convenient and complemented the meal and overall experience. The vibe of Maydan Market was glamorous without being stodgy. We all thought for $65 the tasting menu was an outstanding and extremely reasonable meal for the quality, execution, composition, creativity, service, and ambience. One of my guests went to the Michelin starred Vespertine a few months ago, and definitely preferred the tasting experience at Yhing Yhang BBQ. I came across some recent rumors that Yhing Yhang will be changing its format, but I hope the Thai-focused grill concept will re-emerge someday. Until then, I'll look forward to visiting the recently opened Holy Basil Santa Monica, the well-established flagship restaurant in Atwater Village and whatever new food projects this restaurant group comes up with.
