LAX-C

Back in the day I would come here to get mint, cucumbers and lemons for a tea shop. Now I come for the snacks and bulk items for whenever I’m make a large batch of something.

It’s like what other reviewers say, a Thai Costco. You’ll find Seafood, fresh and frozen. Produce, ready-to-go hot meals, frozen dumplings, any kind of Asian sauce, and a bunch of items for food items to-go, cleaning supplies and utensils.

The isles are long and wide. The parking lot gets busy but it’s free parking.

Credit cards have a 3% charge added at checkout. Debit cards and cash do not.

This place is like restaurant depot, Costco, or any warehouse, but "asian style". A great place for restaurant owners or operators. The prices are competitive, some items are cheaper than other same store, some are not. They have a good selections of asian products, meats, and vegetables. They also have restaurant supplies, like to go containers, kitchen wares, silverwares, chemicals, even some some appliances. Parking is good. They have employees that can help you find items you need, they will help you carry/ load your items to your vehicle.

It's like a Thai Costco! Huge warehouse with wholesale prices. Definitely the place if you're looking for Thai or Asian ingredients and snacks. They've outdoor and indoor food vendors serving authentic Thai food. While it doesn't seem quite as tidy as Costco, you'll certainly get more ethic items here

It sits on the outskirts of china town. The streets are usually empty though it can get packed in the parking lot to the main door. I really love this place. If you are a local you can take the back streets to get there. It has everything even bamboo sticky rice steamers and containers which are located in the far rear corner of the store. It's haunted though. I saw something in the back in which I could not explain. Scared me to the core.. but I still truly love this place.

Huge Thai restaurant supply store! The parking is terrible. Took awhile to go through every aisles. They could do a better job at displaying the price for each item. Their snack selection is not as big as other Thai markets. The Thai prepared food counter has a variety of delicious food and dessert...definitely checked them out. The chive dumplings, sticky rice with custard on top, foi thong (golden thread), met khanun tasted like what you'll find in Thailand.

Disclosure: I'm originally from Thailand. This place is legit!! I didn't buy any grocery, but this place was well stocked. I would come back for Thai spices and fish sauce. Went there for street foods. 3 items with a mound of rice was only $11. See pictures for available dishes. I asked to substitute sticky rice for white rice and the lady SAID YES. That's service! I had red curry, chicken basil, and pork shank (kha Moo) with picked vegetables. Cousin had catfish, green curry, and pork stew w 5 spices. ALL DELICIOUS. Bought desserts too and had them at home. Still delicious (coconut milk custards and sweet egg noodles or foi thong). Then attempted to get coconut cakes (khanom krok), but the wait was 25 minutes. ***ORDER YOUR COCONUT CAKE FIRST THEN GO HAVE LUNCH OR GO SHOPPING THEN COME BACK*** This place is 6 stars. Everything is open air and masks are required. No Covid-19! Why fly all the way to Asia and do 14 days quarantine when you can get everything here!!

Good place to buy grocery and products

There is so much to describe . It's a food /restaurant supply where house open to the public but with great prices . There is a fresh fish market that will fry the fish you want, lots of frozen meats and vegetables, parking is a little tight . The staff was helpful and courteous and friendly. The checkout was fast and efficient. Come and see for yourself.

This is a great place to get ingredients, cookware, and service ware for Southeast Asian food, focusing predominantly on Thai food. You can purchase single items or items buy it in bulk.

They offer some live seafood and the market has a prepared food counter with authentic Thai entrees and Thai desserts.

The Best Thai Market.
My Thai wife also gives Lax-C 5 Stars

It an Asian Costco like food store. Buy them in bundles and can buy in individuals too. You can find all sorts of edibles and sweets along with sauces for curries and stir fry. It’s a warehouse and well stocked.

Bulk purchases for restaurants and small businesses. Big warehouse in downtown, near Chinatown.

So much stuff, and most of it imported. If looking for Asian food start here. Big selection, big containers, good prices. Open to public while wholesale oriented.

Love it here! Definitely a Thai Costco!
😇🙏🏻🇹🇭

Unbelievable store. First, its huge. They must supply every Thai restaurant in the city with food, supplies etc . They have everything imaginable. You can buy a piece of fish or the whole thing. My wife is Thai and we go there once in a while. It's we hidden. They have about 10 sauces for everything. Go check it out.

Good place if you're looking to cook Thai food. Making your own Thai food is much cheaper than eating at a Thai restaurant. It's like a warehouse style layout.

Lots of selection of sauces, curries, and other ingredients. Food stall outside of store also has tasty food.

Great store and service that’s all I say here since I really like their snacks that was imported outside of US.

However as the witness from the 15th of that “bad” review, I’d like to confirm that it’s a complete fraud and she made up the story that neither of it happen, so she isn’t in the right either. She was eating one of the squid snacks in the store somewhere in the snack aisle and mumbling some things to herself. I was about to confront her but I believe she was sent to pay for the snack she ate in the store (that she opened to eat). She was rude to the cashier but she didn’t say anything but threw hands at her making weird faces. Ive known that after we pay, we can’t leave the store without a receipt which that’s reasonable that the cashier didn’t let her take the bag. Oh and also, that customer was in crocodile tears acting like she’s the victim. W L, if you’re reading this, you probably don’t know me and I understand harassment and discrimination, but you’re not using these words in a right way and you’re abusing the uses of them, and you’re not in the right either. Also pulling a disability card won’t get you anywhere and called deaf people a bad name. Also, highly suggest you need a hearing aid, and stop harassing and abusing the terms of the ‘Customer Always Right’ motto. The customer MAY be right, but NOT always.

Love love love this place. This is one of my routine spots to shop in LA. Lots of Thai and pan Asian stuff. Fresh lemon grass. Numerous types of curry pastes, leaves etc. Meats. Cooking utensils. Pots. Presents. Lots of noodles, fresh and dried, rice and wheat and buckwheat. Bulk Asian veggies. Everything is there to make Asian meals at home. And if you want food because you've shopped so much there's a deli with lots of cooked yummy food from spicy cat fish to curries to desserts. And you can sit there and eat in or take out. You can't go wrong shopping here. And if you're an out of towner looking for a cool experience visit LAX C. You will have great stories and cool things to bring home.

The Thai community's answer to Costco. Need 2 lbs of kaffir lime leaves? No problem. Also, the cafeteria serves the best and most authentic Thai food for many miles. I have not had a finer green curry outside Thailand than I have here. Atmosphere is that of a warehouse and hardly romantic... But oh so authentic.
