Cholada might be an unassuming wooden structure on the outside, but behind the humble facade lies a unique Thai dining experience. Authentically prepared favorites are served in the cozy, bustling main room year-round or on the more intimate back patio during the summer. The Cholada wrap with tofu, veggies or shrimp is notoriously fresh and tasty. This local favorite (Malibu rapper Shwayze swears by the joint) is sure to impress.
