The food has gone from good to fabulous over the last year. Whatever they did, it's amazing! The Mongolian Beef, Pandan Curry and orange chicken are among our favorites so far. The service is friendly, quick and efficient just like we like it. The booths are tough as they have nothing to lean back on but the table seating is fine. read more

We got take out tonight for dinner. Ordered the Honey Glazed Chicken and Pad Kee Mao. Both were hot and delicious! I've introduced many friends to Asian 1 and I see them there often when we're out to eat there. Everyone loves their food. read more

I love this restaurant! It's one of the few places that has a nice enough atmosphere and privacy that you can actually have a conversation with your group. Our waitstaff always seem super busy, but friendly and attentive and I like that multiple people check on you throughout your meal refilling waters, getting extra peanut sauce (yum!) and bring you plenty of boxes when you're just too stuffed! And the food is fabulous. We always go for awesome happy hour drink and food specials. Our favorite dish has to be the Pad Thai, but honestly everything there is good. My only little critique is I wish they had Phǒ on the menu. Highly recommend! read more

The, and surprisingly the best French fries in the valley! Been here a ton of times and have never been disappointed. The staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

Quick friendly and helpful service. Generous portions and delicious food! The atmoshere was just right with dimmed lighting and light music.

Large portions but the pad Thai is super dry and really lacks any flavor. I ordered over DoorDash so it all lacked freshness, but that's not really their fault. I also specifically asked for chopsticks and they didn't give me any. read more

GOOD, NOT GREAT. I reaaaallly wanted to love this place--I really did. But the price for what you get here is just not worth 5-star love. I ordered two dishes and a Thai Iced Tea and it was $40 (yikes!!!!). I ordered their Pad Thai with tofu and felt like it just lacked flavor. It looked amazing and was perfectly moist, but it simply lacked flavor. Luckily, I ordered their Mongolian Beef which, by the way, they marinate, bread the beef themselves, and cook, was pretty darn good. It was a little on the salty side so, mixed with the bland Pad Thai, it balanced out. Even their Thai Tea was a little on the weak-flavored and too-creamy side. The ambiance is pretty legit here and it's probably what kept it at a 4-star review rather than a 3-star one. It's perfect for a date, you could step up to the bar area for a super casual vibe, or you can come here with the fam. The wait staff are totally friendly here and while I didn't love my first experience with the food here, I would totally come here again with friends to try other dishes out. Overall, the food was meh. The ambiance and service was nice. I would come here again with mid standards and hope to be surprised. But if you want a better selection and better value for what you pay, go down to Taste of Thai by Wipa. read more

This was a last-minute lunch decision while traveling, and it turned out to be a good one. Service was friendly, and the menu was typical of most Chinese/Asian restaurants. The honey glazed chicken did not disappoint. It did not have the usual thick and sticky sauce and I kept thinking about that glaze for the next hour. The decor seemed a bit dated but the food was good and the portions were ample. read more

Perfect.waitress was great.food was awesome.easy to get a booth and great drinks.perfect lighting.

Always great food! My kids can always find something they like and I pretty much like it all.

my son and I have never been here first time and we absolutely enjoyed it the peanut sauce the chicken, the soup everything we had was phenomenal. We will most definitely be coming back more often. Now that we found a little piece of heaven. read more

This is my second dining experience at the Asian 1 in Burlington. I forgot to write a review my first time, so I decided to visit again and rectify my "grievous error" On my first visit I had my favorite Thai dish, which also happens to be this locations most popular, Pineapple Fried Rice. I always order chicken as my protein element. The Pineapple Fried Rice was very tasty. I was definitely NOT disappointed This time I decided to try something different and went with one of my favorite Japanese dishes, Yakisoba. I spent 18 months in Japan and ate a lot of Yakisoba. Asian 1 prepares this dish a bit different from what I remember from my time in Japan. The restaurants in Japan typically prepare their yakisoba in a wok and that imparts a frying element to the dish. Also there is teriyaki in the Japanese version. I have no idea how Asian 1 prepares their yakisoba, but I did not detect any teriyaki and I didn't get a fried taste. Having said that, I still liked Asian 1's version of yakisoba. It was very delicious and they even asked if I wanted it to be spicy. I LOVE spicy foods, so I immediately asked for my teriyaki to be "Thai hot" . I was very happy with the resulting dish and was surprised that it came with my choice of white rice or brown, a leafy salad with peanut sauce dressing, and the Soup du jour (today it was egg drop soup). All of that for just $13.15 (drinks are extra). If you are a fan of Asian cuisine you should definitely check out Asian 1. read more

Asian 1 - Leftovers!! - Thai Near Me - Burlington, Washington

I have always loved this restaurant. But was absolutely floored at the price and the proportion received. Literally everywhere else in Skagit gives you twice as much yellow curry and they charge the same, or less. Taste of Thai, Thai house, bamboo bistro, even the places in Anacortes, all give a large plastic container- ranging from $12-$16.95 for TWICE the amount. I paid $16.95 for the smallest portion. Also, I ordered the avocado roll, which was literally just avocado a tiny bit of rice and seaweed and the rolls were mini size (half the size of the cali roll my husband got) for nine dollars- I got like the smallest portion ever. After it was all said and done- we spent about $70. I vowed I will not be going back for dinner due to these Prices and portions, sadly! read more

The food is amazing!!! Great service, one of my favorite places to eat. Crispy Asian Prawns are my favorite.

Superb!!!! Food feels fresh, healthy and good tasting. The service is nice. The Ambience is inviting. I will come back. read more

Asian 1 - Red Curry with Brown Rice - Thai Near Me - Burlington, Washington

Food flavor is good, service is great, and the spice level is terrible. I've been here two times so far. Once I got a spice level 3. It was so mild I was actually able to feed it to my toddler. Next time, I asked for Thai spicy 5. Told the server I wanted the food to "melt my face." The food was even less spicy than the first time. I am not sure if they understand the concept of spice levels or if it's just a random number that doesn't mean anything to them, and all the food is cooked the same bland way. read more

The sign says "healthy" food. It may well be. I ordered Chicken Lettuce Wraps to start. They were the worst lettuce wraps I've ever eaten. The chicken filling was dry beyond belief with not much taste. The lettuce was very nice, crisp and nice little cup shapes. The sauce was pretty good too but that doesn't overcome the tasteless, dry chicken. For a main course I ordered Mongolian Beef which was good. Crispy beef, nice onions and peppers and a good sauce too. Expensive though at $16.50. The wife ordered Chicken Pad Thai, which she enjoyed. She said it might be the best she's ever eaten. We brought home small containers of leftovers. I also ordered some Pineapple Fried Rice which had a strange curry flavor. The chicken pieces tasted like they had been reheated, having an off-putting taste. It did have a few nice sized shrimp and some big chunks of pineapple too. We ate very little of the dish and because we didn't enjoy it, we didn't bring home leftovers. But, here's the thing, it was an expensive meal for Asian food. We had one appetizer and basically three entrees since we had to order the fried rice seeing as neither entree we ordered came with anything else. No rice was offered which is not customary anywhere else I've eaten Thai food. The bill totaled Pennie's shy of $60 for the two,of us. No drinks and only one appetizer. Even post Covid that's too high for the quality of food we received. I doubt I'll come back. read more

Love the curry! Perfect flavors perfectly done!! Favorite lunch treat!! Great service!

Amazing food, good service, and cool vibe! We love eating here, anytime we are near here we stop

Asian 1 is a great food place because it offers fresh, flavorful dishes with quality ingredients, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. read more

The waitress got the order wrong then said it was our fault not hers. then proceeded to get the order wrong a second time. There are much better local Asian restaurants to choose from, so we will not be returning here. read more

We were so pleasantly surprised by this place! We were in the mood for "Asian food... but HEALTHY Asian, not greasy Asian." When we walked in, I exclaimed "wow!" out loud! It was much nicer than I expected. The lighting was charming, warm, and intimate, but it wasn't sun and dingy, because there were huge windows letting in lots of daylight. The FOOD was even better! They can make just about anything on the menu gluten free. I got the fried rice, and it was satiating, but it didn't feel heavy and deep fried in the mouth. Light and savory and perfectly filling. The vegetables were perfectly sautéed, not tough or rubbery or burnt or soft or anything! We are TOTALLY coming here again. read more

Asian 1 - 47. Asian Fried Rice (GF!) - Thai Near Me - Burlington, Washington

We came here for lunch, and I have to say, I had a wonderful lunch. It was reasonably priced, they had a private parking lot, and the server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. They have three different types of asian food, so you can definitely find something to eat. Give them a try... read more

Great service, huge portions. Great the appetizer sampler and the Crab/Chicken fried rice you'll have leftovers of both. Love this location, doesn't jump out at you from the outside but full of charm from the inside. Happy hour ends at 5 so pop in early to get I believe he said 25% off the bill. Sushi available Wed-Sat only...of course we went on a Monday that's my luck...so no review for that but I've heard great things. The Veggie delite? Was great last time too, oh and the salad with the cucumber vinaigrette yummy. read more

If I could give this place a 0 I would. I'd like to share an experience I had with this restaurant. I ordered food for pickup at 430 pm and was told it would be 30-45 minutes. My husband walked in at 5:15 pm and was told it would be at least another half hour with reason being that another order had come in. We were never informed about this even though they had our number to show respect/courtesy for our business. At this point as we had to get home my husband asked if this could be delivered to which we were informed this wasn't possible and we would have to redo the order online which would take at least another 45-60 minutes to arrive. We immediately cancelled this order. This place has no respect for its customers and makes me wonder how many other patrons have been dealing with this. There was never any apologies made nor consolation for delaying our order. Thankfully there are plenty of other sushi places around here so we will give our business elsewhere. I'm hoping the owners of this establishment read this review. read more

Great prices. Wonderful, flavorful food. I always get the Tom Kha, it's the best I've ever had. Their spice levels are off, even the spiciest level I can hardly taste, but I just ask for the "spice rack" and they give you a tray of chili sambal and ground red pepper which really makes it. The pad Thai is strangely sweet which I've never enjoyed but every other menu item I've had has been delicious. The customer service is great too. read more

Sugar. Everything tastes like sugar. Vegetable soup, is sweet soup with mushy carrots. Pad Thai noodles, had maybe 3-4 noodles and just a thick sugar sauce with vegetables, paid extra for chicken just to have maybe 3-4 little pieces. Salad, warm salad mind you, and a think peanut dressing and was just sugar. This whole place is so bizarre. The name says Healthy asian food, but everything is also drenched in sugar. Do not recommend if your from California or anywhere that has good food. I know it sucks out here with slim options but yuck. Only good thing from the 2 times we've been here was crab fried rice, but guess what? Sugar. Even the fried rice was sweet. So as we're driving home I feel like I have to vomit from eating sugar for lunch. Miserable. Like I can feel my body hating this and it's trying to process it. Edit: they also didn't have any sushi even though it's a sushi restaurant and it's on the menu. read more

Pretty good place here for Thai. Great atmosphere, service was slightly off due to less attention given and not asking about our utensils needs. Maybe 5 small kids (eating with another family) made server think we'd be stingy with tip. While less than was the hype had been about the taste of the food, it was still good and deserving of another chance. One of the dishes had too much of a bunt taste even though it didn't look burnt. And my Pad Thai again as is typical here in the west coast to tangy and not enough of the slight fishy flavor. read more

Asian 1 - Pad Thai (tofu) - Thai Near Me - Burlington, Washington

This seems to be a popular place in this area and I don't know why when there are so many better options. I think they try and advertise themselves as the "healthy" option but it's bland and the dishes don't taste right. My boyfriend got the orange chicken and the sauce it came in tasted like tomato paste with some orange slices in it. I got the pad Thai and it was lackluster and the noodles were mushy and over cooked. Service wasn't the greatest. There was one really good server doing all of the work, one girl taking phone orders and hosting and another guy who didn't seem to be useful at all - he walked by our table like 3-4 while we needed refills and didn't even look our way. It wasn't even busy. I mean if no flavor, no msg and "healthy" is what you go for this is your place. I won't be going back. read more

Good, but uneven. Love the curries but the soups are weak. Noodles are good but would be better if they were better separated during cooking so the sauces can be absorbed. All told, still one of the best places to eat in Burlington, just know there will be some real hidden gems on the menu but also a few clunkers. read more

Sushi chef was awesome, dynamic and innovative. Value added to an already great restaurant. Love all their food!

Found this place because of the close proximity to the mall. We ordered some Egg Rolls (Veggie - Spring Rolls) and I got a Yakisoba with Beef. Super good. Also had the Evergreen roll (asparagus, cucumber, avocado). Pretty good. But I have only had this roll elsewhere with fried asparagus. Still good though. My husband had this sweet chicken, broccoli, cashews, coconut milk dish. Neither of us remember the name of it. Good. But too sweet for him (or the friend we were with - who ordered the same dish) to finish it. All in all, service was great and the food was what was advertised. Four stars for the small Egg Rolls (which only appeared to have lettuce in them) and the super sweet can't-put-my-finger-on-what-that-taste-reminds-me-of-chicken. read more
