Food delivery in Silverlake - who's the best?

Hey all -

Happy Friday :)

Can someone give me a list of good eateries in Silverlake that deliver? Nothing fancy - just Thai, Chinese, Pizza, Mexican (that would be fabulous!), etc. that delivers in the Silverlake area...

Don't have many menus at home and don't know enough places.

Thanks,
C

    See the Los Feliz delivery thread too.

    Couple things I posted there... Pizza Buona (in Echo Park), the Italian place on Vermont near Electric Lotus, and Leela Thai.

    Also, the new "vegan" place on Sunset and Benton delivers, but I personally think their food is crap, even compared to the rest of those thai vegetarian places that are springing up like roaches.

      We are always searching for new choices in Silverlake food delivery and yes the choices are limited but the best Thai we have had BY FAR is Jitlada on Sunset. They are slow and hardly speak english but it's the most authentic thai I've had in the hood. No frills or mood lighting necessary just great FOOD. Our favs are... spinach of flame, mint beef, pad thai, prik king (slightly oily buy yum). Here is a link to the address and phone number http://losangeles.citysearch.com/prof...

            Just wanted to say thank you for Pazzaz Sushi. I just googled "food delivery" +silverlake, and came to this post, and just made a massive order for me and the lady. I thank you very much, two and a half years after your original post.

            Mae Ploy Thai. Get the mint leaf spicy noodles, the eggplant or tofu salad, the crab noodles, the curries, etc. Their specialty is fried catfish but that probably doesn't travel too well...
            I don't have the number here, they're in the phone book. They deliver all over Silver Lake and Echo Park.
            I recently tried Nicky D's pizza and wasn't too impressed but it might be worth another try.

              We've only found a few places that deliver, unfortunately none Mexican.
              1. Suriyo Thai Bistro. This is a new place at the unlikely Santa Monica (near the junction location) that was the original Puran's. Their food is fresh and tasty and really well packaged for take out. They're nice people too.
              4114 Santa Monica Blvd. (323)662-9052

              2. Farfalla. Delivers when they feel like it. I think the food is good and the service waivers from really sweet, to indifferent to dumb as dirt. Go figure.
              1978 Hillhurst (323) 661-7365

              3. Vito's Pizza. Also kind of a mercurial place which will sometimes deliver and other times, not. However, the pizza is superlative. I love the vegetarian with fresh mozarella and fresh spinach.
              814 N. Vermont (323) 667-2723

              4. Mustard Seed. Just recently started delivering lunch only. This is a restaurant I like more theoretically than in reality however their
              sandwiches and salads are better than many. The prices have always struck me as a bit steep and sometimes dispensed with a bit of 'tude.
              1948 North Hillhurst Avenue (323) 660-0670

              5. Electric Lotus. Kind of ho hum Indian but probably more tasty than anything you have in your freezer.
              4656 Vermont Ave. (323) 953-0040

                Simply Thai on Hillhurst also delivers, not spectacular, but will definately do when hunger strikes and you just can't get out the door. Leela Thai (on Silverlake) also delivers, but I haven't been in years, so I can't vouch....

                  You beat me to the punch.

                  One word of caution re. Vitos -- although they have exceptional pizza, not once have they deigned to deliver when I've called, which is why I left it off my list. This, despite the fact that they leave delivery menus at my door periodically. I guess it would be worth a try, but I wouldn't count on it.
