"Anajak Thai has been the object of tremendous media attention for good reason. Chef (and conceptual artist) Justin Pichetrungsi took over his father’s decades-old Sherman Oaks restaurant; kept its quirky, weathered interior adorned with artwork; and installed one of the best wine lists on the West Coast. The younger Pichetrunsgi adjusted the menu with top-quality seafood, such as hamachi, local farm-raised shrimp, and dry-aged fish fillets dressed with nam jim sauce and kept popular dishes like the pad kee mao, fried chicken, and Dungeness crab fried rice. The results are one of the most popular San Fernando Valley restaurants, especially on its Thai Taco Tuesdays when lines can extend to the dozens." - Rebecca Roland, Mona Holmes, Matthew Kang
