Amazing price for the tastiest Asian food around! I am in, at least, once a week. I can't help it! The food is addicting and there is so much variety! Even now I haven't tasted everything on the menu, and everything I've had has been great. The service is great too. She is the sweetest lady and is always so kind and patient! Every plate comes out fresh and piping hot. I love this restaurant AND family! read more

Another cheap place to eat good not excellent but food Thai food. I have been there probably four times since moving. The lunch specials are super nice! Sometimes I don't even want to cook because I can get lunch so cheap here at the Far East. It's a dive place and a whole in a wall but who cares when the food is good and the price is right. read more

Best curry in town! And the cheapest! Sweet couple who work together . Small restaurant and pay attention their bus ness hours !

Okay, so far so good with the fried rice or the Singapore fried rice I had recently. I was jones'ing some chicken fried rice and my go to Pho spot up the street sells it for like $14-15! Waay too much for fried rice, this ain't PF Changs! Anyhow, it was $9.95, good flavor and a decent amount. I can hear the chef rocking the wok in the back so its all freshly made but I gave the server some pointers on making it better. I will eat here again and try something else which I hope is good because this spot is only 5 minutes away from home.We need a decent priced Asian spot. Critique: place looks very drab and has a no frills ambiance. If they took the time to decorate a little, maybe spruced up their seating situation and just made the place more welcoming, it probably would be more frequented by customers. Honestly, I kept passing it for 2 years because of said drabness from the outside. read more

Absolutely great little place in Olympia for Asian food. They have a special menu that gives you just the right amount of food for lunch and is very reasonably priced. The waitress was very courteous and attentive. I got the spicy garlic chicken with "spicy". The heat was good and not enough to over take the flavor of the food. Honestly a great go to place. read more

I was craving some thai food so I ordered from Far East. Usually I get Saigon Rendevous which is excellent but they were not open. I am extremely dissatisfied by what I ordered. There is no flavor at all! I ordered the pad thai with beef and the noodles came with barely any sauce and the meat was dry and bland. I'm so sad. read more

Food is always very fresh and delicious and the service is so friendly. I love all the stir fry dishes. I recommend the Spicy garlic chicken. The curries are great too. The Bangkok noodle soup is my go to when I'm feeling under the weather. read more

Love this place. Its like walking into a second home. The family who owns the place is the sweetest and is always doing their best

I can't believe this place has almost 5 stars. My boyfriend and I wanted to try something new, so we went purely based on the rating on yelp and were SO disappointed. The pad thai was PINK and bland. My tom yum soup was horrible- canned soup with frozen vegetables and canned pineapple chunks, and only a few pieces of chicken. I could barely eat it. And it wasn't even that cheap. I will never go back. Service was fine- just really bad food. read more

This place is so tasty and they have the most reasonable prices I've seen in a long time. The fried tofu is done right, the peanut sauce is amazing, and the cream cheese rangoon were hot and crispy. read more

Friends introduced us to this gem of a restaurant! The food is so fresh, healthy and delicious. Even though we were dining with food restrictions they were accommodating and we found we had options right off the menu. This isn't your typical Thai or Chinese food. The brown rice is a bonus. And the prices...SO reasonable they could be called cheap! $5.35 for lunch and the serving size was more than satisfying. The restaurant is decorated simply and functionally, the focus is on the food! We actually went back the same week to eat again, and will return again soon. read more

I visit Washington every year and every year I never fail to eat at Far East restaurant. It's a small mom and pop shop, run by two people! Their freshly-made, authentic asian food is paired with a nice and quiet ambiance. I strongly reccommend this restaurant. My favorite dish that I order every visit is the Cashew Nuts Stir Fried with chicken (and without water chesnut :) ). read more

This place not only has good food but they are the nicest people on earth. Their lunch rice bowls (brown rice is an option) are a great deal. Thai curries, very-authentic Phud Thai and soups are tasty. I highly recommend. read more

I came in about 10 minutes before closing to order take out. I wanted orange chicken but she said they were out. Asked for general tso's chicken but they were out of that too. I ended up getting chicken in black bean sauce and kung pao chicken. Not impressed with either entree. The entire dish seemed boiled and the "sauce" was like water. Prices were very low. Sodas are only $1.25. read more

Service was exceptional. The lady who served us was so sweet. My boyfriend and I ordered the green curry and ginger chicken. Both dishes were pretty good to our surprise! Would def come back if we are in the area. read more

Have been going here for years! Small family owned business. They are always kind, their food always delicious and prices very affordable! Love their orange chicken/tofu and pad Thai. They're the best! read more

This place is the best. The service is amazing and ALWAYS on point. The owners are so incredibly friendly and kind. The prices are wonderful and I have yet to eat something here that doesn't leave me completely satisfied. If I could give more stars I would. read more

Me and my girlfriend call in a order to this place a couple times a month. We always get the pad Thai or pineapple love along with a spring roll with tofu. The pad Thai is always delicious. The pineapple lover which is my favorite always have fresh pineapples and peppers along with juicy chicken. To top it off the family that runs the place is polite and always wearing a smile. read more

My boyfriend and I were looking for somewhere to eat in Olympia and we passed this place and decided to try it out. The food is really fresh and good. I had peanut as use with shrimp and my boyfriend had the pepper chicken and they were both really good. read more

Even tho it wasn't our first choice this time it will be the next time we are in Olympia! What a wonderful surprise to have found such a delicious Thai restaurant! We were here on a Monday for lunch, so many restaurants are closed. My husband had the yellow curry with chicken and the sauce was rich, delicious, with a great blending of the curry with coconut milk! I though mine was going to be the best! It, too, was yummmmm, but the other was even better! I was going to give this a 4 star but changed my mind! For a small city or even a larger city this was impressive! The server I think, was part of the family and she was darling and so pleasant! I'd return! read more

Awesome, great tasting and healthy food at GREAT prices. The owners are super cute and really nice, and they just had a baby!! can you say CUTE?! They have great deals on the "lunch bowls" which are around $5 for a good amount of food, and they're served all the time! The soups are great too, so is the Pad Thai and fried rice. wow, everything is good!!! read more

Nice little hole in the wall. Family owned and run. The orange chicken had a fresh slightly sweet yet light sauce. I would have liked more sauce. Nummy. The pad Thai was mildly sauced just as we ordered it. We would have liked more peanuts but it was very tasty. The portions are appropriate in size and not huge. So, don't plan on one meal and then sharing it between two hungry adults. read more

The BEST yellow curry I have ever had, I have been coming here for years and have never found anywhere across the country that can match it. My wife gets the Pad Thai and always loves it. The service is always the best and the couple that owns it is very friendly. read more

Varied menu with fair prices and quality food. Very friendly and capable waitress. Fast service.

I have eaten at Far East countless times and never had a bad experience. You won't find better Thai food for these prices anywhere in Olympia. The vegetables are always cooked to perfection, and the service is friendly and prompt. Best of all, eating there makes me feel like I am supporting a real "Mom and Pop" restaurant without sacrificing quality. Give them a try!!! read more

I have been going here for 8 years. It will always be my favorite place to eat in Olympia. The food is amazing. I will be going back until they close. Suggestions: yakisoba with chicken, green curry, orange chicken, snow peas mania, cream cheese wanton, Thai basil delight, egg rolls, Bangkok noodle soup, everything read more

My favorite place to eat in Olympia. Food is always consistent, and the couple that run this place are always working, with smiles.

Always awesome! Customer service here is always amazing! The food at Far East is incredibly delicious. Definitely a must try.

Really small portions for the price and very bland. Would not eat here again. Ordered general Tso chicken and it was weird, small, thin slices of chicken breast- the whole order was maybe a cup of chicken. Beef broccoli had hardly any sauce on it and again, no flavor. Fried rice-same thing- small portion, no flavor. Egg rolls were ok at best. read more

Yum, so good. Cheap apps and $5 lunches. Have been a couple times, had pad thai and curry, both great. Love the thai iced tea (although I think its probably from a mix) Yum, yum, yum. read more

We stumbled upon this place walking the streets of Olympia, the appearance of the building doesn't look welcoming. However the service and the food is top class at an extremely low price. Try there curry it's by far the best I have ever had!! read more

By far one of the best places to eat in downtown Olympia! Amazing customer service and wonderful food!

Love this place!!! I always come here when I'm in town from Seattle and the waitress still knows me by name :) thank u!

Far East is fantastic. Vegetarian options are soo good, and my omnivorous friends love the peanut sauce tofu as well.

Love this place! By far one of the best in Olympia and its just a little hole in the wall. Prices are very fair, and the food is excellent. Best Curry in the area for sure! They are also vegetarian friendly which is awesome. The service is also super friendly and very prompt. Gotta love Far East read more

This place is Great! everyone should go here. Family owned and very authentic! Sweet kind waitress, even remembers what we like there. Orange chicken is fresh, not greasy and I feel great after eating here. Usually eating out would upset my stomach. But healthy and so delicious I'm always satisfied. Love it. Recommend for everyone and anyone. Also sooo affordable, about $5.75 for a lunch rice, with meat and or vegetable dish!!! read more

Far East - Orange chicken entre with rice! Also had the best egg rolls I've ever had at a restaurant. Tasty to say the least - Thai Near Me - Olympia, Washington

GREAT SERVICE. All else is good- the food is good, the atmosphere is fine, the prices are good... but the smiling faces of the owners make this place special. I love their very reasonably priced rice bowls, and I can go in with two kids and my husband, be seated immediately, have my food within 10 or 15 minutes, and we can all eat our fill for under $30 (including a few spring rolls). They don't have my *favorite* of any standard dish (ie phad thai, yellow curry, fried rolls, etc.) but they are very willing to accommodate vegetarian/vegan needs, and like i said... they're just so nice. read more

The food is great and they have the nicest people ever!! Great service, I come here all the time and they never seem to disappoint me. Anyways, I would definitely come here if you want some great food. read more

We seriously love this place! It's so totally unassuming and is easily overshadowed by the fancier Thai restaurant next door. However, this place is clean, yummy and super reasonably priced. Our favorites: General Tso's chicken (totally different preparation and delightful); Ginger Chicken; Yakisoba; Deluxe Fried Rice. In addition to fresh, not too greasy food, the woman who works there is SO friendly! read more

FYI: They are closed until 10/15/2011. (I think that's the right date.) I went to have lunch there the other day, and there was a sign in the window saying that they have had a baby, which is really cool, no? Anyway, you'll have to wait just a bit for your next fix. read more
