    Pad Khi Mao*
    Sahithi Y.

    I would go again to try something different but I was disappointed that the pad kee mao tasted like pad see eiw it was sweet and I really didn't like that. The coconut water was delicious and super refreshing. The ambiance was nice and they were doing fun celebrations for birthdays. I also thought the food came pretty quick and I liked that the servers let us stay longer.

    This place is a vibe lol. We were lucky and got a table right away on a Saturday evening. Customer service was awesome. They were very accommodating and checked on us a couple times. Highly recommend the tom kha soup. We got the hot pot size which was a couple dollars more but plenty for my group. I had leftovers enough for two more days lol. They were very generous with the chicken and mushrooms too. The soup was creamy and had a strong sweet/ sour flavoring. Crispy garlic chicken flavor was also delicious, tasted similar to fish sauce chicken wings. I liked the dry basil too. The only thing was the chicken was too dry and chewy. Pad Thai and papaya salad was good. Everything was 2 stars for spice but I did think papaya salad was a tad bit spicier. Mango sticky rice was alright. Mango was ripe but coconut sauce was too sweet. Thai iced tea was also too sweet. I loved that they were accommodating and made my Thai iced tea non-dairy by replacing it with coconut creamer. Overall, delicious food and great service! I've been to their Tukwila location before and had amazing experiences at both locations. They have a bar here with fun drinks too so I might be back to try it. The only downside is parking is really difficult to find in Capitol Hill.

    Good place for Thai Food! My mother's go-to thai restaurant and always recommends it for Thai food. We got the pork jerky, crab wontons that are a must for an appetizer (for the kids), crispy garlic chicken was also bomb and papaya salad which we loved.

    This photo is of pad Thai w/ crying tiger it was lacking flavor wouldn't recommend either.

    I recently visited Bai Tong with three coworkers and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. When my meal arrived, it was not what I expected based on the menu description, so I politely asked if it could be sent back. The staff initially took it back without issue. Shortly after, one of my coworkers found a hair in her Pad Thai. She mentioned that the dish itself tasted very good and simply asked if it could be remade. Another coworker's meal was also not prepared as described on the menu, so she requested a different dish. Instead of working with us to resolve these concerns, our waiter returned and informed us that the Pad Thai would not be remade and ultimately refused service to our table. We were surprised by this response, as we remained respectful throughout the interaction and were only asking for issues with our meals to be corrected. To make matters worse, after refusing service, our waitress largely avoided our table for an extended period of time. We were trying to pay our bill and leave, but it felt as though we were being ignored. During this time, she spent several minutes engaged in conversation with another customer about topics unrelated to menu items or taking their order, while we continued waiting for assistance. Whether intentional or not, it gave the impression that helping our table was no longer a priority. We understand that mistakes can happen in any restaurant. Orders can be incorrect, and issues can arise from time to time. However, customer service is defined by how those situations are handled. Unfortunately, we left feeling unwelcome, frustrated, and disappointed by both the response to our concerns and the lack of attention afterward.

    Pride cocktail special
    Bee N.

    What a new gem I have discovered! Came here for my cousins birthday dinner and had the most fun cocktail experience - not only was the drink delicious, it came with nerd clusters and airheads sour belt and fresh watermelon. 10/10 and worth the $22. I unfortunately forgot the name but they have all their pride drinks on an iPad with pictures and descriptions. I also had their crab wontons and crispy garlic chicken, which was delicious. The crispy garlic chicken is probably a good pound worth of chicken so it's a great bang for your buck and a meal to share or have plenty of leftovers. Their staff were super friendly and the service was quick. I will definitely be back soon!

    While my family and I visited my best friends in Seattle, they recommended this Thai restaurant since it's not only delicious but also had a Harry Potter theme last they came. Sadly the theme's time had already expired. But they were still some drinks they were still making while they were transitioning to the next theme. I am typically allergic to alcohol but as a seasoned Pot head, I had to indulge. I landed on the Avada Kedavra. It had a delicious raspberry base topped with some fresh fruit. A dry ice cube placed inside gave off the perfect spooky vibes. The drink was accompanied by an adorable chocolate snitch stacked on top of jelly beans. The other show stopper was the mango sticky rice. The mango was perfectly cut and was perfectly ripe. Rice was cohesive and spongy without being stodgy. And the coconut sauce was not too runny and sweet. Service overall was average. Price is higher than similar Thai restaurants but everything we had was very good. And you certainly also pay for the unique spins on traditional fare. I would still be interested in returning in the future.

    I dont think I have had drinks with this much flair anywhere I have been. For the halloween season they had a myriad of extravagant drinks that had a variety of decorations. Mine had a Wednesday painting and easel while someone else had theirs nestled in its own wood structure with seasonal decorations. The drink itself was great as well. The coffee was smooth and rich and it even came with a bonus drink I wasnt expecting. I got a sampler option that came with a coconut soup, vegetarian stir fry and dessert. Surprisingly the coconut soup was what stood out. Usually I am not a big fan of those but the sweetness worked well with the veggies without overwhelming it. The staff was friendly and helpful as always and on weekdays the parking isnt too bad but on the weekend it can be rough.

    Great lunch spot with lots of seating. Food was flavorful with spice level ranging from 1-5. Plentiful meal with varying spice levels. As Thai is one of my favorites, this place truly hit the mark for me enjoyment.

    Crispy pork
    Prasiddha H.

    Had a chance to try this super cute Thai spot and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The ambiance here is very cute and the service here is very good. For food we got: *spring rolls - these were the non fried ones and came with a delicious peanut sauce * crispy pork belly with basil Thai sauce - very flavorful and crispy and came with a side of rice which was great * hat ya chicken - I think I said it wrong but this was the best fried chicken! Light and delish *pad see ew - can never go wrong with some yummy noodles Overall we had an awesome experience!

    I had the opportunity to attend the Elite All Star dinner at Bai Tong Street Cafe. First time at this place and was I impressed the moment I arrived. It was such a big classy restaurant. Lots of tables to fit any party size. Food is great. I sampled the Thai Hainanese chicken rice and pork satay. Got to taste the spareribs, massaman curry with beef and cashew chicken. All of them were fantastic! Got to try some of the creative cocktail or mocktails. They were so creatively done. Very impressive. All you can say is wow! They taste good too. People here are so nice. Very friendly l. Service was spectacular. I would like to come back here to try other food they serve. It's a very nice place to gather for no occasion and even more, for special events or milestones. Highly recommended!

    Cocktail

    We stopped by on a Monday to have dinner after seeing some pretty great reviews on Yelp. Our waitress was very kind and helpful, and very quick to get our order. There's currently a special of different types of chicken and rice, which we tried and was delicious! The pad kee mao was also tasty-- it comes with broccoli and some bell peppers along with a protein. I felt the flat noodles and sauce were cooked perfectly and incredibly flavorful. I went with spice level 2 and it was perfect-- and I usually love spicy food! The food and cocktails are more on the expensive side, and I can't say I'd pay for another cocktail but definitely would come back to have more food!

    Happy Hour. 4-6. Food and Drink options.

    HAPPY Hour?!! I am so confused?!! As of March 2026. Happy hour is only on FRIDAY from 3-5pm. Otherwise lunch specials are Monday- Thurs 11:00-3:00. Weekends?!! I have no idea.... Sigh... I am so confused as websites are not up to date with times or days. Oh, still great service and foods!!!

    Crispy Garlic Chicken

    Crispy garlic chicken is 75% breading which makes it barely edible. There used to be actual normal sizes of chicken. It didn't help that my side order of rice was not put in my pickup order. Overall disappointing experience Update: I've called twice to get a refund for the side white rice since it was not given. They are just not providing the refund for a simple mistake

    Is the tom yum hot pot vegetarian?

    How is the noise level? I am looking for a place to take my grandparents who are hard of hearing.

    Ive only been once and it was during the week so maybe someone with more experience can help you but if you go on an off hour like i did the noise level was relatively low

The space is elegant, unique, and lives up to the photos. I also want to recognize the manager, who was polite, professional, and kindly explained that reservations were required. I completely understand and respect that policy. Unfortunately, my interaction with the bartender before speaking with the manager was the complete opposite. As I tried to get her attention, I felt like she repeatedly looked at me with annoyance and made me feel unwelcome. Rather than simply explaining the reservation policy herself, she went to get the manager instead. She had a problem with Hispanics. She refused to engaged at all. The way I was treated left me feeling uncomfortable and embarrassed, especially as someone who was genuinely excited to visit. A beautiful venue can only go so far when the hospitality doesn't match. I would have happily accepted that reservations were required if I had simply been treated with basic kindness and respect from the start. I truly hope this was an isolated incident because the location itself is stunning, and the manager handled the situation professionally. Unfortunately, because of my interaction with the bartender I've added in the photos, I don't see myself returning. Sadly they have a Prejudice bartender.

Well thank you to staff who decided to keep it open because there were few other places open! Dead Line and the sister bar next door both have a few tables but mostly it's the bar ambience/moody academia. We chose to sit by the door and people watch. I got a cherry cider and it was good! We shared a salad, the steak arepa, and the pork arepa. The salad they had on the menu wasn't updated but they had a summer salad with watermelon and it was refreshing and great! The arepas tasted great but were pretty heavy, I think probably because of the sauce. But there wasn't really any way to avoid the sauce. Even splitting amongst three people it was a lot- I think it was still good to try, I liked the steak more than the pork, but I would've only ordered one in the future. Highly recommend visiting during happy hour from 4-6 pm for 20% off your bill.
