This was mine and my three friends first time dining at La Ong. We had a great experience! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm smile and welcomed. Everything we ordered was excellent! The food, service and ambiance was all very well executed! I've recently returned from a trip to Bangkok and now I know where I can revisit a piece of it here in LA. We had the organic fresh green rolls (I need them to bottle the peanut sauce.lol), crab fried rice, sea bass southern thai curry, holy basil noodles and the dirty wagu beef! I would order everything again!

The staff, particularly our waitress, were super friendly and also helpful when I was making selections. I was performing at a comedy gig after dinner but wanted a margarita and the zero proof jalapeño margarita was PERFECT (and spicy)! I loved it and was so impressed with the alcohol and non-alcohol options. The food was so yummy. I like that tacos are served solo so if you want to try a couple kinds you can go for it easily. I went with Barbacoa and loved it.
