Tree House Thai - Culver City

Ordered a pretty large order for 3 $100 for takeout. Trusting it’s all correct, I paid and took it home. When I open the bag, I realize that they forgot an order of jasmine rice that comes with the order. How are you supposed to eat curry or crying tiger without rice? We decided to offer the one order of rice we had for the curry because we soon found out that the crying tiger dish was not edible. The meat was so dry and over cooked (we didn’t specify how to cook the meat when we ordered). The 3 of us each tried a piece and couldn’t even bite it, let alone chew it. It tasted rubbery and hard just not what a decently cooked steak or crying tiger meal should taste like. It was unfortunately very disappointing. Giving it 2 stars instead of 1 because the other food orders were okay, but to forget food and then have the food over cooked so it all just had to be trashed, was frustrating.

Tried to come here for lunch. I walked in (as a solo diner) about 30 seconds after a couple (man+woman). It wasn’t busy at all and we were both sat immediately. The staff person (understandably) wrote down the order of the couple first. However, they then proceeded to put in their order to the kitchen. Then wait approx. 4 minutes to then carry out their appetizers. Then took down a beer order from the couple. Fulfilled that beer order to their table, and then gave a check to another diner… All of this before ever coming over to take any sort of order from me. And no, I wasn’t still browsing the menu or giving any sort of inclination to the staff that I wasn’t yet ready. I was sitting there, watching all of this occur with the menu closed. Please consider restructuring your order of operations when it comes to customer service.

Best yellow curry I’ve ever had! Server was friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed the music despite it being American pop hits, I usually prefer some kind of authentic music, but they had good tunes on that I was actually jamming haha. Can’t wait to try other dishes !Food: 5/5

This is our family’s favorite Thai food restaurant. The food is always good. A lot of their business is take-out, so it’s never hard to get a table. The atmosphere is super chill with not-too-loud ambient music. They have happy hour daily, and once or twice a week they have a live music set in the evening. Their lunch specials are a great value. Servers are always super polite. And since it’s upstairs with lots of windows, you have a great view of the neighborhood. It’s really a gem.Vegetarian options: Almost any dish can come without meat so it’s super easy to have vegetarian options.Kid-friendliness: We always bring our kiddo and the restaurant is really chill so it’s not hard to have a kid there.Parking: The lot in front is pretty tight usually but the lot in back is always available. We’ve never had trouble with parking.Wheelchair accessibility: There is an elevator to reach the second floor.
