    6. Crab Delight 51. Garlic Fried Rice 3. Chicken Wings
    Janoessa P.

    I haven't been able to try a good majority of the menu just yet. But my friend and I are absolutely obsessed with their fried rice. I've gone multiple times now and the food is always delicious. Just to try, I've switched up the protein for the fried rice and it tastes amazing with anything. Another thing I appreciate is that they don't skimp on the portions! Food is prepared in a timely manner and the ladies working there are so sweet. This is a go to spot for me!

    Takeout only restaurant! The portions are HUGE. I wish I upped my spice star-level because I thought the 3-stars on the pad Thai was actually less spicy than expected. My pad see-ew was tasty and the order took 15 minutes for pickup.

    This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Seattle. The portions are big (I can get 2-3 meals out of it), the food is reliable, and the price is good for the amount of food you get. I've tried the pad kee mao and rama noodles, both of which are full of flavor and leave me wanting more. When I've gone with my family, I've had bites of their curry and pad see ew, and all have delicious, rich flavor in each bite. The one downside is it is take out only (they stopped indoor seating during COVID), and it can be hard to reach the restaurant via phone. I've had to call multiple times, sometimes, but someone always picks up eventually. Food pickup is quick and easy.

    TAKE-OUT ONLY!!! None of the reviews I read mentioned that they don't do dine-in. Pretty disappointed cause it was a 20 min wait and street parking was difficult. There's not much to do while waiting except sitting in your car. I ordered chicken pad thai and green curry. It was ok. Wasn't the worst thai food I've had and wasn't the greatest. The green curry had a good kick to it. Paid about $32 for the two entrees. Disappointed because I'm not from the area so I relied on Yelp to satisfy my craving and this place did not hit the spot.

    The food was okay. The portions are huge for the price and could definitely last multiple meals. It was super easy to place an order over the phone and the food was ready in 20 minutes.

    34. Pad See Ew

    I never leave reviews but I had to make an account just for this one. I'm visiting from California where I actively try tons of Thai Food(It's my favorite) and I stumbled by this one just randomly because it was the only thing open near my airbnb. Lemme prefice this by saying I tried every possible "famous" foods in downtown from the chowder, fish, Piroshky and don't get me wrong they were good but they weren't anywhere near as good as this was. This is the BEST thai food that i've ever had, I would come here even if they had the worst customer service ever but the crazy part is the ladies were so sweet and polite. I genuinely don't know how this place isn't more popular my only guess is because it's not directly in downtown. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Although take out is always a good option, I invite you to maybe sit down and eat a meal, it just makes it that much better.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Pad See Ew, Pad Kee Mao and Red Curry were amazing but i'm sure the rest is equally as good. Seattle was an amazing experience, the only bad part being not having this restaurant when I get back home.

    Updating to five stars after going back a couple times and falling in love with the quality. When inside the kitchen is widely visible. You can hear, see, and smell all of the sizzling activity, confirming the freshness that comes in each bite. Everything is jam packed with flavor. Their peanut sauce is also "the best I've ever had" according to my super picky boyfriend!

    I called in an order for pickup at around 5:30pm on a Saturday and it took about 15 minutes for it to be ready. There is some street parking in the area and some residential parking a little further away. You can choose your spice levels from 0-5 stars and for all of the dishes I ordered I got 2 stars which was a good level of spice. You can definitely taste the spice but it doesn't make the dish unbearable. CHICKEN WINGS ($11.95) - The wings were not super crispy but they were flavorful, tender, and fall-off-the-bone. The dipping sauce that comes with it is nice too. 4.5/5 PAPAYA SALAD ($11.95) - At first the papaya salad was not as cold as I was expecting but still very good. It was like room temperature (whereas usually I expect colder) but I put it in the fridge and it was better the day after. 4/5 PAD THAI CHICKEN ($12.95) - The pad thai is slightly sweet but very flavorful. The lime balances out the sweetness and the spice was perfect to round out the dish. This was probably my favorite dish of everything I got. 5/5 YELLOW CURRY BEEF ($13.95) - The flavors were great, the beef was nice, and the eggplant was an interesting touch. The curry itself was slightly thicker than liquidy but not as thick as others I've had. The day after it was in the fridge, it was a lot thicker which I liked. What I really like about this is that it comes with rice (you can choose white or brown) which isn't common at all Thai places. 4.5/5 THAI CRISPY CHICKEN ($13.95) - It doesn't have the word garlic in the title or the menu but it does contain garlic which is awesome. Again, this dish comes with rice and I like the stickiness of the sauce and the sauce goes well with the rice. I wish there was more of it! 4.5/5 TOM YUM NOODLE SOUP PRAWNS ($11.95) - This has great flavor and goes well with the noodles. I wish there were more things in it such as fish balls as it was just the soup and the prawns. 4/5 Add this place to my list of favorite Thai places in the Seattle area. I have high standards for Thai food and everything I got here was fantastic and flavorful.

    This is our go to takout Thai spot in the area. It is a pretty small place on the inside that is often full so we usually opt for takeout. The food is always consistently tasty. I've tried a variety of things like the Khao Soi or the Pad Kee Mao and they are all good. My gf likes to get the Pad Thai as it isn't overly sweet here. We usually like to get the chicken satay or gyoza or maybe both to go with our meal as well. I recommend the satay more as it is very flavorful and the peanut sauce and cucumbers are really good and probably go well with some of your other food too. The staff is always very friendly and the food never takes long to be ready. I am excited to try some of their other dishes like their curries in the near future!

    Pad Kee Mao and Pad Thai!

You can see staff making the food over the counter and the ventilation was done well even with all the stir fry and cooking.

From the outside, we noticed the restaurant takes up a good amount of space in the building. Once we arrived, there were several people waiting to be seated. We added our name and number to the list. It was about a 10-to-12-minute wait for our party of 2. Throughout the restaurant, the lighting is dim and suited for night life. Once we were seated, we were given the menus. We ordered the Grilled Calamari, Uncle Odds Flank Red Curry Wild Betel Leave with Sticky Rice, Battered Chicken Red Curry, and Durian Tiramisu. The food came out at a respectable amount of time. The Grilled Calamari was an enticing appetizer off the menu based off how big it was. However, we were a bit disappointed once it arrived at the table. It was much smaller. It was still good regardless. Once our main entrees arrived, we were also a bit surprised by the lack of vegetables there were in the curry. Even though the menu states exactly what was in each of the curry dishes, we were still just shocked and questioning why that was. We both enjoyed the curries anyways. I wouldn't order the Battered Chicken Red Curry again only because the batter of the chicken was getting soaked the longer it sat in the curry and became a bit mushy. The texture was throwing me off. It was very filling as there were lots of chicken compared to the other curry we had which was a much smaller portion of protein. Lastly, the Durian Tiramisu was amazing! Definitely the star of the show for us. If you don't like durian, it won't be for you. For the durian lovers, this is a must have!

The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and we were looking forward to the bold flavors we've come to love. The visit started off a bit oddly. The front desk server, Tar, asked to see my wife's ID--even though she's 36 years old and we weren't seated in the bar area. It felt inconsistent, especially since younger guests nearby weren't asked, and it's something we've never experienced at their other locations. Unfortunately, moments like that made us feel singled out, and honestly it sometimes feels like they tend to pick on Asians, whether intentional or not. That feeling alone made the experience uncomfortable and will likely make this our last visit to this location. That said, the table service was excellent. Moo took great care of us, and Cece from the bar was attentive and kept our water filled throughout the meal. Unfortunately, there were a few moments that took away from the experience. While I was taking photos of our dishes, a young staff member alongside Tar appeared to be giggling and mocking me, which made things uncomfortable. It may not have been intentional, but it didn't feel professional and only added to the awkward atmosphere we already felt. Food-wise, there were some inconsistencies. The chicken didn't taste as good as we remember, and several plates had visible fingerprints, which was off-putting. The galvanized metal plates also gave off a slightly unrefined feel--more like cafeteria-style serving ware. Additionally, the sticky rice, which is usually presented in a traditional bamboo basket, was served in a Ziploc bag, which felt like a downgrade in presentation. On a positive note, the papaya salad and pad Thai were still very good and delivered the flavors we expect. We'll continue supporting Isarn, but we'll likely return to the Kirkland or Lynnwood locations next time. Sadly, after this experience, this Queen Anne visit will probably be our last.
