It feels a bit like a grand steampunk machine dedicated to turning out roasted bone marrow with laksa leaf, kon loh mee noodles with barbecued pork, grilled lamb belly and fried chicken wings. Leggi tutto
I loved the skewers of grilled beef tripe, which picked up all the smokiness from the grill. And the perfect crossover dish? Sambal potatoes. Leggi tutto
Exquisite, unusual tastes and flavors are pervasive on the menu. Kaya toast, Laksa noodles and beef rendang are delicious. Just be wary of portion sizes, which vary from dish to dish.
My new fav restaurant. Fried cauliflower, creamed kale, raw yellowtail, yellyfish salad and fhe scallops were each amazing and special with all the great spices.
Spicy food lovers have to get the Sambal Fried Potatoes. Curry lovers must get the curried fried chicken wings. Amazing - crunchy on the outside, succulent and flavorful on the inside.
Feast on fuzzy squash, lap chong and dried scallops, or share a catfish clay pot and a satay mix of chicken, pork, lamb belly and prawns grilled on Spice Table’s wood-burning hearth. Leggi tutto
Creamed kale is delish as is the beef Rendang and kaya toast (giving Susan Feniger a run for her money!) Could skip the Black pepper crab toast. Wine pairing was cool too.
One of the best new restaurant opening in Los Angeles! Bring four people and eat your way through the entire menu. And do NOT leave without tasting the Fried Cauliflower. You will thank me later...
Niman Ranch pig’s tail—braised to softness before being caramelized over a fire and served with lettuce cups, a platter of mint stems, and fish sauce—is a seamless dish of stunning integrity. Leggi tutto
The Kaya Toast and the Raw Yellowtail are amazing. Their Beef Rendang was good but super hot/spicy, so make sure to have a glass of water ready. I didn't like the Laksa though... it tasted too fishy.
Brian Ng's (formerly of Mozza) new Spice Tablein Little Tokyo has a perfect little patio out front. Order mini beer flights and the spicy curry fried chicken wings. [Ultimate Al Fresco List] Leggi tutto
Chef Bryant Ng “caught the bug to cook” while growing up washing dishes at his parents’ Chinese-American restaurant. His lightly fried cauliflower with turmeric and fiery fish sauce is a hit. Leggi tutto
Lunch: pork rice bowl and cheezeburger are downright comforting. Dinner: Hainanese chicken rice is better than Savoy in my (oh so very humble) opinion.
The restaurant combines Singaporean and Vietnamese flavors.The sambal fried potatoes are addictive, as are the fried cauliflower florets, which are perfectly fried. Leggi tutto
The curry fried chicken wings were tasty and had a dry rub. The beef rendang was tender and flavorful. The kale with pork belly was a good complement to the beef.
According to a server, Spice Table will remain at its 1st & Central location through the end of the year. The businesses on the block will disappear to make way for the Downtown Connector subway.
Try the secret eaterLA burger till May 8, also make sure to try the fried cauliflower and the Bok Choy, the shitake mushrooms and sauce are ridiculous.
Only a few menu items (Kaya Toast, gem salad) are vegetarian. They can work to remove meat/fish from a few plates, but when you don't replace them with some other flavor, the whole thing is lacking.

Don't go here. It's a McDonalds in black sheeps clothing but expensive. If they are gonna do this for much longer they need to step up the bread to say the least. Overstaffed fast-food eating.
The Spice Table celebrates the culinary heritage of Chef/owner Bryant Ng and his wife Kim. We are a full service restaurant focusing on satays grilled on our wood-burning hearth and other dishes inspired by the traditional cuisines of Singapore and Vietnam.
