  We have been going to this place for a couple of decades, from it's former hidden atmosphere to the now open view. I did like the former better, but the food!! Oh that flavor is a toe curler. It is a very favoured spot to eat that luscious food. Long Live Chao Krung!

  I’ve been going to Chao Krung for a couple of years now. The food is good and the location is convenient for me. I recently decided to download their app to avoid using that other big delivery app, which I thought was a good move as it would save both me and the restaurant money, and I don’t mind going there to pick up the food since it’s relatively close. Big mistake. Last night I used the CK app to order food, including a salad with grilled beef. After picking up the order and returning home, I realized while plating that they had given me pork on the salad, which I don’t eat. Bummer, given that I had spent the time to pick it up, and knowing that they don’t make food fast, so a replacement was nowhere in the near future. I called the restaurant to let them know, and instead of an apology or offer to fix the order, was met with insistence that they do not offer beef on the salad. I doubled checked my order and confirmed that beef had indeed been selected. I was put on hold for a few minutes until the manager picked up the phone, and without asking me anything, again simply insisted that beef was not an option. I drove back to the restaurant with the salad and my phone, which clearly showed the order history, including the salad with beef. Despite being shown the order history *on their own app* which confirmed that the salad was supposed to have beef, I was again met with insistence that they don’t make that salad with beef! If you’ve seen the “computer says no” skit on Little Britain, then you can imagine how this back and forth went for about ten minutes. The manager (Men) was hostile and dismissive the entire time, insisting that I had somehow made a mistake using their app (?) Eventually, he begrudgingly agreed to give me a refund, which took another ten minutes. At no point was there any indication that they had accepted any responsibility for their mistake, and all that I got served was a really bad attitude. I looked at their app this morning, and they have now removed that salad option, presumably to fix their mistake in the app. I guess it would have just been easier to use the big delivery app, where I could have simply clicked on the “wrong item delivered” option and gotten a refund. It’s a bummer because I do like the food there, but LA has lots of great Thai food, so I’m definitely not willing to put up with the terrible service just for the convenience of it being close by.

  We stopped here for a late lunch and this was definitely the highlight of our LA trip. This is a mom and pop shop and serve more traditional style Thai dishes that we haven't seen elsewhere. The decor features family pictures which are super sweet and cozy lights. I got the gra pao rad khao with tofu and the whole dish is an umami bomb packed with flavor and textures. There's a nice heat from the chiles but it's not overwhelming and the green beans add a nice crunch.
