Will definitely be back!

Stopped by here with some out-of-town friends after visiting the Walk of Fame. Shared the Seaweed Quinoa Rolls, which were excellent, and the Thai Jerk Wings, which were also excellent! I had the Blazing Chicken for my entree and it was very flavorful and tasty. It was the first time I had ever had young pepper corns and it took me a while to figure out what they were.

The menu is pretty extensive with lots of different things to try and multiple reasons to return. Kudos to the staff!

Pros: Large menu selection, Reasonable prices, Off-street parking

Cons: Small parking lot

Take Me Back

I found Salaya on a happy accident waiting for a delayed show. Completely plant-based menu with multiple mylk options for beverages, full of traditional Thai and fusion recipes, it’s easy to make any vegan happy. I was in a hurry and tried the Beyond Pies, happily surprised with 3 hand sized crispy delights and a dipping sauce I had no shame on using up completely. I also ordered a Thai tea for my sweet tooth. Relaxing atmosphere while I waited and the door was constantly rotating with take out orders which I think is an excellent sign. I am trying to go back to try their traditional items and I have a really good feeling I won’t be disappointed!

Pros: Huge Menu, Totally Vegan, Kind Staff

Cons: Limited Parking

Delicious!!

Went here on my visit to LA, I ordered the crispy tofu and the orange chicken and oh my goodness they were both AMAZING. The orange chicken was probably one of the best vegan things I have eaten in my entire vegan journey! The tofu was great as well! They also had a few outdoor tables, which the lady working there was nice enough to pull over a sun umbrella for me, she was super nice! Only downside is the price, but honestly it was all worth it for that orange chicken...

**UPDATE**
Went again on our most recent visit to LA and it was just as good as I remember!! Also their menu has gotten much bigger! I ended up with the Pad Thai and BF got Beef Pho, and we shared some steamed dumplings! Everything was very tasty!!

Discovered after Griffith Park

We were in the area and tried this place out for dinner. Loved the
- curry with dumplings on it
- the spicy garlic noodles

We got some fried seaweed rolls with quinoa but those were too fishy for me, so I won’t have that again.

Will be back!

Conveniently Near Griffith Park

Post trail-run this was an awesome spot (so close to Griffith Park)! Papaya Salad and dumplings with great service/personnel.

Pros: Fully Vegan/Plant-Based, Friendly and Kind Service, Cute Interior

Cons: Bring Patience Parking Lot is Small (I Got Lucky), Litter Surrounding the Area (Total Bummer)

Great Thai Food

This place is fully vegan and has a large menu of both Thai food and other types of food.

They did the Thai food so well. The green thai curry was particularly delicious and very authentic!

The quinoa Seaweed Rolls are interesting concept but currently deep fried and it makes the seaweed flavour overpowering.

A little bit of attention to the ambiance and service could elavate this place into more of a destination.

Definitely worth a visit!

Loads of options, perhaps too many

The menu was EXTENSIVE which is fab when vegans typically have less choice… but that being said, the fusion menu felt unnecessary and the Thai menu had so many options it was overwhelming.

Overall we loved the food - call outs are the Green Curry is lighter and super tasty, the food is a little salty and the Quinoa Seaweed Rolls were really uneventful.

The dumplings were amazing and so were the corn cakes!

I’d definitely get the Orange Chicken next time.

Pros: Looooads of options, Big servings

Cons: Dishes were overall expensive, Too many options was overwhelming

Fantastic

Entirely vegan Thai place that is always a great choice. Been numerous times and everything is always tasty but their fish curry comes about as close to the taste of real fish that I’ve tried since giving up the real thing. This isn’t just a great vegan restaurant in Thai town, it’s a great Thai restaurant - period. Highly recommend!!

MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT OF ALL TIME

I LOVE LOVE this place. The flavors are perfectly balanced and consistent in every bite. I love that out of most of the restaurants in Thai Town (meat restaurants!!), Salaya has the MOST regionally diverse menu. I get to sample dishes from all over Thailand that aren't even available at other restaurants nearby. You will not be disappointed. SALAYA4EVER💗

My favorite LA restaurant

Wow, my new favorite restaurant in LA. The food was delicious and presented like art. The portions were generous and price is inexpensive. We ate dinner and went back for lunch. All the help were sweet. The owner was generous to treat us an appetizer (larb) and dessert (crème brûlée). We are definitely going back when we are in LA.

Pros: Vegan, Amazingly delicious , Generous portions

Cons: None

Salaya Slayin It!

Incredible Thai stop. Big menu. Had the green curry and the Spicy Garlic Noodles with Broccoli and an order of the shoestring fries. The kitchen was immaculate, the dining room bright and pristine. Service was awesome and lightening fast. The food was out of this world delicious. After four months in Thailand I was very satisfied with my dinner here.

Pros: affordable, delicious, fresh

Very flavorful food, and very nice people

Salaya is a cut above the Thai/vegan places in the area. Their green curry fried rice is especially flavorful with a fresh taste. Some interesting and tasty Western dishes on the menu as well, such as a "meat" pie. Most items can be made GF (using GF soy sauce) and they are very conscientious about getting your order right. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere, with (usually) easy parking in front.

Pros: Conscientious food preparation, Fresh flavors, Friendly staff

Best Vegan Thai food omg

Consistently outstanding vegan Thai food from woman owned restaurant. 100% plantbased menu with delectable mock meats like vegan chicken and vegan beef. Menu highlights for me are Buffalo wings (they include a little bamboo “bone”, so tasty and tender, better than real chicken wings IMO) Pad Kee Mao with Vegan Chicken, Pad See Ew with Vegan Beef. Egg rolls are also good. The wonton soup was a little bland compared to my homemade, but I enjoyed it. I love that they include lots of fresh crisp green veggies with all the entrees. We order from here for delivery (Grubhub/ DoorDash) and the food always arrives piping hot and packaged well. Good sized portions. When we have picked up in person, The location for indoor dining is cute, clean and modern with parking out front. Can’t wait to try more menu items

Pros: 100% plant based Thai, great for delivery, Plenty of healthy veggie options, Delicious mock meats made of soy/seitan

Best vegan Thai

Hands down, best vegan Thai restaurant I’ve been to this side of the ocean. The flavors, aroma and presentation are as good and better than most Omni Thai restaurants. Flavors are authentic, spice levels were just right and service was a delight. Anyone and everyone will enjoy this place, vegan or not.

Pros: Authentic flavors , Large servings, inexpensive , All vegan!

Cons: Not organic

YUMMY!

I get this food delivered by Door Dash. The empanadas and orange chicken are my absolute favorite. I've ordered the Pad See Ew and Pad Thai with no spice level because I don't love spicy food. Sometimes though it's still spicy and I just suffer through with a glass of water nearby. Still would order from here because it's all vegan.

Pros: Orange chicken!

Cons: Can be spicy even though it's not labeled spicy

Ordered delivery of duck curry, tom yum soup with chikin, and seaweed quinoa rolls. Everything was loaded with flavor and well made. It was also prepared very quickly too.

Nice food, but service was rushed

We enjoyed the food, but they kept coming to our table to ask if we were done, which was strange because there were plenty of open tables. We would have enjoyed more if the service was more relaxed.

Very delicious thai

This is really good thai food. 4 stars for the fried banana ice cream. The bannanas were frozen and the ice cream was like watered down. Really weird. Coconut soup and pinneaple fried rice was amazing though.
