Super nice owners/staff. Generous portions. We had: 1) chicken larb - 5/5. Excellent flavor and the right amount of spice; 2) tom Kai gai - 5/5. Lots of galanga, keffir lime leaves and lemon grass; it was bursting with flavor. Perfect on a rainy afternoon; 3) green curry with pork - 5/5 yummy, full of flavor, herbs and veggies to balance the pork; and 4) thai ice tea 5/5. Not.too sweet! No pictures as we were hungry. We will be back to try more items on menu. read more

The food was absolutely delicious but what really made me love this place was the service, specifically from Noi. She is the sweetest lady ever and gave me coupons and a complementary Thai iced tea (also so good)!! Will definitely be coming back to this place over and over again. Also, the atmosphere is super calming and they have very nice lights as well as music which added to the vibe. Very clean and well kept inside :) read more

Khao Soi Thai - Chicken N1. Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Monmouth, Oregon

I have been meaning to try the food at Mink's Pad Thai . I ordered the yellow curry and drunken noodles . The yellow curry was quite good - it had some spice to it and was still hot driving it home to Falls City area. The drunken noodles had a slight kick to it , the noodles were thick and satisfying . I had both dishes with chicken . The order took about 15 minutes during the dinner hour, the lady taking my order was very nice. When I returned to pick up my order she gave me a drink with crushed ice and what was probably green tea and a sweet brown syrup in it, which I didn't expect and was super nice. The restaurant itself has ample room to eat in and a cushioned bench to wait for takeout . I will probably try a dish with rice noodles and a basil dish next so many choices. read more

very yummy food! the atmosphere was cozy, the service was quick, and the people were very kind :)

Enjoyed a couple of meals from here. Tonight's large Shrimp Tom Yum Soup was flavorful. There were four medium size shrimp in it. Ordered chicken version last time but was too tough and dry. Shrimp's definitely the way to go. The Tom Yum has a great tangy flavor; very reminiscent of Lanxang's version BEFORE they changed owners. Glad I found a replacement at Mink's! The Beef Pad Kee Mow was ordered without carrots and bell peppers; they tend to make the dish too sweet. Beef could use tenderization. The rest of the dish tasted great. The Shrimp Pad Thai has a very good flavor. It came with four large shrimp. Pretty good. Perhaps dial back the sweetness. The wings. Ordered the original last time, it was tasty. Being to go, the wings did lose their crispiness once it goes into an enclosed box. Ordered the Garlic Chili version this time and if you like heat, you'll like these. read more

They have moved to 405 Main St., but they are definitely NOT closed. This is the best Thai food we've found in the greater Salem area. The service is good and the food is really good and authentic. We loved the Pad Thai and my go to, red curry, was really good too. It's a nice family owned business and worth the drive through the farmland to get to Monmouth for this Thai gem. On our second visit I had the Khao Soi, a dish I've never seen anywhere else and it was fantastic. My wife loves drunken noodles and she was absolutely pleased with their version. read more

Ordered off of DoorDash, the pad Thai was pretty good until I bit into a big chunk of plastic... and then again, and again... multiple times! There was more plastic I threw away before I started collecting all the pieces. Still finished it though read more

Best pad Thai I have ever had. Tons of vegetables and they had cilantro on it! Yummy. I will be back. Very flavorful . Very hot. Great customer service read more

We tried this small Thai restaurant. The food was so good. The best Thai food we have had in Oregon so far. The service was so wonderful. The server taking our order was very good at explaining the food and heat levels1-5. So glad we went and hope to return soon. The dining room was clean and seats more than photos show. Maybe 10-12 tables and very nicely decorated. read more

We have been to this restaurant several times since we moved here in September. Have not yet been disappointed. Last night I got the massamam curry with chicken. It's my new favorite. Husband got cashew beef, he said the beef was a little tough, but the flavor was excellent. Don't leave without getting the sticky mango rice!!!! It was transcendental read more

Minks is very small and doesn't look like much- But the food was DELICIOUS. Some of the best Thai food I have ever had. We ate the coconut soup- excellent and the Thai spicy rice, delicious!

Khao Soi Thai - Thai Near Me - Monmouth, Oregon

Everything at Minks is 110% nom! My mom and I probably get take-out on average of once a week from here. I'm pretty sure her Crab Rangoon's (aka crab puffs) are homemade, and their tasty factor is so delicious that it has me recently looking at deep fryers online to purchase. The portions are large, and I ALWAYS have leftovers for at least one more full meal. I don't usually write Yelp reviews, but I had to tonight for my #1 favorite Monmouth Thai Restaurant! read more

These people are so kind and the pad Thai is amazing. Cute garden seating out back. Lovely clean restrooms but most of all great food and service read more

The namesake Pad Thai is a truly excellent version of the dish. The Pad Woon Sen is also quite delicious. For heat seekers, this is also a rare place that will actually make it fiery hot if you ask for "thai spicy." Everything we have tried is authentically enjoyable. read more

I was getting late and still a long way from home. I actually turned on the wrong street and saw this place. I ordered pineapple rice with chicken. I ate some of it in the truck since I still had one hours drive home. They delivered it to me outside very quickly. The food was amazing! This is a small place that you will find if you are lost like I was, but a great fine and wonderful service. Thank you read more

Absolutely worth a trip to Monmouth! The curry potato puffs with cucumber salad appetizer are light fluffy and the little cucumber salad so sweet! The flavors of the Tom kha soup and green curry were delicious. These people know what the are dishing up! Thank you I will be back. Friendly waitress very kind. read more

Probably the best pad thai that I have every eaten ( and I am 69 years old) My wife was very impressed with the salad rolls also. Great service and a very friendly staff alao read more

I love Minks! Every meal I've gotten there has been great, my favorite is the yellow curry. One of my favorite restaurants!

Minks Pad Thai has some of the best service. I go there almost weekly to get their fried rice or a plate special. Highly would recommend going if you haven't! read more

I ate green curry. One word. WATERY! if you are going to charge $2.00 give more than theee shrimp. Cheap! All other Thai restaurants put in $2.00. I won't return. Be aware, some of the photos are NOT their prepared dishes. read more

Monmouth has needed Thai food for such a long time and I'm so happy it is this place because it's very good

Wish I started going here earlier. I had their crab fried rice, lamb, pad thai, crab puffs. Loved it all and so did our toddler. I appreciated the generous amount of fillings for the crab puffs. I was glad to see the dried mango and the banana and taro chips for sale. I will have to buy some of those next time. Their online ordering system worked well and the food was ready for pickup much faster than we expected. read more

I have been meaning to post a review ever since our first visit to Mink's. What a treasure this restaurant is to Monmouth and Independence. Every single meal we have had has been pure perfection. Tonight we had Khao Soi, Pineapple Fried Rice and Egg Rolls as take out. They take great care in the packaging and presentation even for takeout. Thank you, Mink's!! read more

Excellent food!!! Yellow curry, fresh chili wings, egg rolls and pineapple rice with chicken- all so delicious! We'll be back!

This place is the best!! 10/10 would recommend! Minks is open for takeout during COVID and delivers also. The food is delicious and always so fresh. They give you so much food i always have leftovers. This is easily the best Thai place in Monmouth/Independence area!!! read more

First order from Mink's Pad Thai. Really fresh ingredients. Food was well prepared and absolutely delicious. Very clean restaurant. Social distancing and curb side delivery options. Really great experience and loved the food. read more

unimpressed the two times i've been here. the food just, isn't good? it's clean and everyone is nice, no problems with the service. so i hesitated to leave a review... but the food lacked flavor and was overpriced for what it is. i've had much better thai food elsewhere :( sorry Mink's read more
