I ordered the chicken pad thai, which came out pretty quickly and tasted delicious. The server was friendly, and everyone enjoyed their dish. One thing to note make sure to ask whether gratuity is included. We're glad we checked, because otherwise we would have tipped twice. It would have been better if they had been more upfront about that. Overall, it was a good meal and I enjoyed the experience.

The food was fine, but I left with real concerns about hygiene practices here…read more Around 6pm on a recent visit, I went to use the restroom (shared with a neighboring business) and found no soap at the sink. The dispenser was wet, suggesting it had recently been used and run out. I flagged this to an employee who was handling food at the time. They acknowledged me but didn't address it. I waited and brought it up again and was met with visible annoyance. Another staff member eventually mentioned that employees use a sink in the kitchen. I asked if I could use it. Shortly after, soap appeared in the bathroom with no acknowledgment or apology. What concerns me most is this: if the customer-facing restroom had no soap during the dinner rush, and the response to being asked about it was irritation rather than urgency, what does that say about how handwashing is handled behind the scenes? I'm not looking for perfection. I'm looking for basic food safety protocol to be taken seriously. I didn't see that here.

Cute place to stop by near the lightrail station. Service was great, no complaints. The only thing…read moreis that the dishes were a bit on the sweeter side. Maybe it was the day or that's how it's supposed to be? We got the pad se ew and tom yum. We couldn't really finish it bc it was too sweet.

Do not order the salted crab papaya salad. It tasted like seafood gone bad. I didn't get sick from it but the taste was incredibly unappetizing and I did not eat much. The soft shell crab khao soi on the other hand was nice. The curry sauce was super rich and creamy. My only complaint was the soft shell crab was way more breading than crab itself. Overall decent Thai food and maybe they do a better job with other dishes since they have a pretty extensive selection.

I'd come here again for a cheap and quick meal

He is a one person show, and in spite of that he consistently prepares excellent food at great value! Do you like Korean spicy pork, chicken teriyaki, kalbi short ribs, or loco mocos?

There was only one man that was doing the serving and the hosting/seating, and waiting. But he did the best he could despite all the other people there. The food was chef's kiss!! Every single dish we tried was delicious. We started off with the chicken gyoza pan-fried and got 2 different fried rices, Thai basil and regular Thai. Both were 10/10, exploding with flavor and perfectly spiced (we ordered 4/5 spice). Then we got the Khao Soy, which I can't recommend enough and the chicken Kra Pow. My friend ordered the garlic lover's and one ordered the pad Thai. Every dish I tried on the table was delicious. We had zero complaints. We were given our to-go boxes and checks on time and were able to get in and out at a timely manner. I highly recommend this spot and can't wait to be back!

It did seem like there were quite a few takeout orders, but the pace was so slow that the ENTIRE staff had the opportunity to take in a beautiful meal together mid-shift. That's not something you get to see live in a restaurant too often. But that's the type of family atmosphere and camaraderie that you can expect here. So bring your finest homies with you to Chef Liao for an outstanding meal in a place that feels like home. The service here appeared to be of the highest order, but that may once again be because we were dining alone. They might as well have brought out the white table cloth, candle and roses for us. I was immediately flooded with nostalgia once I took a glance at the menu. General Tso's chicken? It gave me memories of the Chinese restaurants from my childhood in Massachusetts that were catered to the American palate decades ago. A taste that is hard to find in Seattle, but a welcomed memory. We ordered a beef lo mein, some sort of crispy noodles, and salt and pepper prawns. You might not be able to tell by my pictures, but the portions here are enormous. Everything here appears the be built to feed a family of four. I brought my hungriest homie, and we still could not finish all of the grub that was allotted. It will be a true test of your grit and ambition if you decide to push further than we did. We ended up having such a good time here that they had to kick us out because they were closing down for the evening. The "Yap n Yakisoba" session will have to reconvene another time, I suppose. The food here was great, but I really appreciated talking to the staff. The gentleman who was taking our order told us that he was bringing his family on a river cruise vacation in Romania the next week, so they would be closed. We will be back with more friends soon, but I hope you enjoy your well-deserved time off sir!
