Ubon Thai Kitchen

At ten tables sitting two each, Ubon Thai Kitchen at Torrance Crossroads offers quick and efficient polite service and a bevy of Thai dishes that best reflects this region. This time we had fish cakes for appetizers, I had duck curry which went well with black rice. Stepmom had crispy lemon chicken and Dad had Thai boat noodles which I had last time when I went with cousin, uncle, and mom. The only thing that could make the experience better is a bathroom for customers. As is, the flavor profile and execution of the dishes are as precise as we can imagine Thai home cooking comfort foods to taste. Thank you to the staff. I also had Taro Milk Tea this time which was soothing and very sweet but not cloyingly so. You can't take fifty people here to dine together but you can order what you want

We had a great meal at Ubon for lunch. The food was very fresh and flavorful and they had some unique options on the menu. The server was a very nice gentleman who made good suggestions. The dining room is pretty compact and I imagine they get pretty busy as the food is excellent. The peanut sauce with the fresh rolls is very distinct and better than others I have tried while the crying tiger beef is extremely tender and comes with another excellent sauce. The Tom Yum broth was perfection and the sizzling seafood was very tender and tasty and not super spicy but a bit of a kick. Overall this is a great place to grab a meal while shopping or anytime. The location is the far corner of the shopping center back near the in and out burger and mini IHOP. This is some great tasting Thai f

Oily, oily, oily Kee Mao Noodles and Oily, oily, oily Thai Fried Rice. Veggie Egg rolls were good with sweet dipping sauce. Thai salad was very good with dressing. Of course the Thai Iced Tea was delicious. When I come to a Thai Restaurant I expect the most flavorful food from Thailand 🇹🇭 but unfortunately there was no infused Thai seasoning in the food due massive amounts of oil, so bland. Nice people but food taste like Panda Express. Jesus Christ Loves You!!!

The food is excellent - loved the spice and flavor in the spicy Thai fried rice with black rice and Pad kee mao, as well as the taro boba tea. Ayla was amazing - we were a party of 6 and hadn’t realized that 18% tip was included, tipped again. Ayla pointed that out to us - an extra star for her honesty. We’ll back soon !

Delicious but DO NOT ORDER SPICY! I have Indian roots and generally have high spice tolerance. But I could not handle their ‘spicy’ yellow curry, with chili flakes sprinkled over it. Panang curry is already a little on hotter side and requesting it spicy made it much more harder to tolerate. Medium or mild is your safe bet. Having said that, they are delicious and rich. Quick and great service. Parking is not an issue as it’s inside a complex and plenty of parking available. The restaurant is pretty small like 4-5 tables so May have a waiting time if you are going at a peak time. No public restrooms but The Home Depot is right by it 😉
