I have not been in ten years so maybe it sucks now.
I was there a few years ago sans family. Still good. Still the same food.

personally, i would definitely give chinois a pass. it has not aged at all well (in my opinion, of course). the food is too often heavy and over seasoned, without the delicacy that comes with good asian cooking (or, really good cooking of any type).
IMO, there is no good Thai food near LAX. Most of it are typical thai restaurants they have upscale ones like Chan Dara in Venice/Culver City or Natalee Thai...but its not really mindblowing...more upscale versions of your typical thai restaurants, you have to go to hollywood.
ok, thanks, let's scrape the thai off the list, then. I can good thai in chicago, I was looking for outstanding.
I think you should forget chinese too. The good stuff is all in the SGV which is too far.
cool - the last time I did this I went to Ford's filling station.
one last-minute thought: you can go straight out the 105 to Lynwood there's a big shopping center called Plaza Mexicana and there's a restaurant there called La Huasteca, that is very, very good (for locals, the chef is the guy who used to have Moles la Tia). i believe they serve lunch, but i'm not certain.
What's up with Moles La Tia now? I ate there last summer and was hoping to make many trips back - is it still the same? Or maybe he's already left by the time I went there.
Hollywood is not even close to being reliably 1 hour from LAX anytime near rush hour.
