Master Critic Review

Siam Chan Thai Restaurant 7.8
Sawtelle
A low-key West LA spot blending Chinese stir-fry foundations with Thai-Chinese seasoning and comfort. The kitchen leans savory and aromatic, with shareable plates that work well for groups who want both familiar Chinese textures and brighter Southeast-leaning notes. Cozy, casual, and easy to revisit.
Must-Try Dishes: Thai-Chinese Spicy Basil Chicken, Crispy Garlic Shrimp, House Fried Rice
