Check In with Los AngelesApril 12, 2012To celebrate #4sqday (on 4/16), Starry Kitchen is returning to their illegal+underground 'donation' pricing of just $5 for full entree meals (salads, lunch plate, banh mi's)!
jennifer hanJune 24, 2011order the crispy tofu balls on a rice plate. ridiculously good, whether you're a carnivore or vegetarian. i wish i could get a costco-sized pack to take home.
ArtFebruary 12, 2011They validate for 2 hrs in the Cal Plaza garage if you park before 9 PM (they're open 'til 9:30 PM Fri & Sat). Menu items rotate out every 2-3 weeks, except for the Lemongrass Chicken.
As the owner would say, "we don't fuck around." And he's right. The food here is yummy. And the menu rotates frequently enough to keep you wanting to see what's new. Gr8 addition to the plaza
Chris HrubeshOctober 14, 2011The pork belly is outstanding, the Asian salad is unbelievable, and the donut holes were superb.
Lisa ReedOctober 31, 2011Thai fusion cuisine. Great prices. Lemon grass tofu is the best I've ever tasted.
Chris BlakelyApril 13, 2012Awesome Asian fusion food in a casual space. Famous for their crispy tofu balls!
The crispy rice tofu balls are life changing. Or as the Starry Kitchen staff would say, it's a game changer.
John HangNovember 5, 2010As the Japanese would say: omakase. Trust in the guidance of Nguyen & Thi Tran- Oh No!!!! Last day for Starry Kitchen is Tuesday, July 31st. Come and get your fix!!!!
The only place at California Plaza that will validate parking downstairs!!!
Malasyan Coconut Chicken. Nom nom while they have it!
