Reviews for Lum-Ka-Naad in Encino, CA
It’s been awhile since I’ve been to Lum Ka Naad due to moving out of the Valley, but man did I miss this place. It’s one... of the best Thai restaurants in the valley in my opinion. They have a HUGE menu, consisting of traditional Thai dishes, as wellas “Asian Favorites” such as Orange Chicken, Mongolian Beef and Kung Pao Shrimp. I ordered two of their most populardishes, the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew. Of the two, the Pad See Ew was the clear winner. The noodles soaked in the delicious sauceand the broccoli had a nice garlic flavor. I finished this meal in record time it was so good! The Pad Thai was also very tasty.I’ve had Pad Thai’s in the past that are drenched in sauce and covered with peanuts, but this one had good consistency, andthe crushed peanuts came on the side. The restaurant itself has a nice interior and is great for a party of 4 or more. Icannot wait to come back here and try more dishes! Definitely try this place if you are in the Valley and craving Thai. Read more
Good food is one thing. Consistently good is another, and Lum Ka Naad is consistent. The restaurant promises a palate full of... flavor and employees who are all smiles. LKN is among the top eateries on Ventura Blvd, not just the best among Thai spots: LKNis a top contender among the entire Boulevard’s chain of food. Read more
Excellent Thai food! Extensive menu. Lots of easy parking. Warning.. Spicy means spicy so don't be a hero lol get the medium... spice level unless you are used to Thai hot. Read more
Wonderful authenticity. I was a little intimidated by the large menu, but thankfully every dish we ordered well exceeded my... expectations. The standout dish was the beef noodle soup, I highly recommend it whether it is ordered spicy or mild. It's a richand balanced taste that I've not found in other Thai restaurants. The other famous dishes, pad see ew and pineapple fried rice,were also distinctly tasteful. There were also a good selection of northern and southern Thai dishes I did not have the occasionto try, but I suspect they would not disappoint. Regarding value, I felt that each dish was enough for a single person. Theprice is about right for the portion, while the quality is very good. The service was attentive and quite courteous. Meanwhilethe decor of the restaurant itself created a comfortable atmosphere. I would encourage anyone looking for a good night to comehere. Read more
The server was nice… but the food was so horrible and cost way to much. I ordered soy chicken spicy eggplant sautee and side... of rice was extra. Soy chicken and eggplant and carrots all tasted 5 days old. Was not worth $25 ! It literally tasted 5 daysold and loooked it and portions were super tiny. I normally dont make reviews but this was just so horrible and upsetting Read more
Fancy Thai restaurant in every sense of the word. Location in Encino AND along Ventura Blvd. Spacious dining area. Subdued... lighting. Classy hardwood interior, Uniformed servers. Serious about its cuisine that it distinguishes between Northern andSouthern Thai dishes. The best feature of this restaurant? It's price. This place deserves no less than 5 stars. Read more
