    Came back and ate at the restaurant with my hubby instead of doing take out and service is great they get super busy with take out orders but the ambiance is great and food was so good. The fried rice was our favorite. Duck was okay wasn't as crispy as we wanted and eggplant could have been cooked a little longer but the seasoning was on point. We will come back again!

    Thai iced coffee

    Their thai iced coffee is phenomenal !!!! We also ordered the black rice pudding and it was excellent! Beautiful flavor and a true classic! 10/10 recommend. To top it all off wonderful service. Thank you Kwan Tip Thai :)

    Our go-to for Thai food in Federal Way!! Whether we dine in or take out, the food is always consistent and delicious. They are always busy which shows how much people love the food. Love coming here! Khop khun ka!

    Little hole-in-the-wall restaurant with excellent food. We ordered spice level 2 and it had some zing. Tom Kha Gai was the best I've had.

I absolutely love coming here on my lunch breaks -- it's comforting, consistent, and always hits the spot. It looks like they may be going through a name change or rebrand. The menus are new and the name printed on them is completely different from what I remember. I wish I had taken a photo because I can't recall the new name offhand, but it seems like a change may be coming soon. I ordered from the new lunch menu and went with the red curry, subbing chicken for tofu and ordering it three-star spicy. It was so good -- rich, flavorful, and perfect for a cold, rainy day. The new lunch special also comes with two spring rolls, which were absolutely delicious and a great bonus. The portion was very filling and satisfying without being too heavy. As always, the service was great, and the food came out quickly -- perfect for a work lunch. I can't wait to come back (and I definitely will). This place continues to be a favorite.

    This restaurant is under new ownership and unfortunately the service was not great here. The server…read morewas not very friendly and took their sweet time to take our order and made us wait for them to get a pen and notepad? Not sure why a server wouldn't have that on them during work. The ambiance was very dark and it was very empty. We ordered some starters, the fried calamari tasted undercooked, doughy, and very underwhelming. The papaya salad was decent, but the main entree noodle dishes were not great either. We ordered a special panang curry fried egg dish, but it ended up just being regular panang curry over rice with a fried egg very underwhelming. We ordered a green curry and the chicken was overcooked and tough. We ordered a chicken salad entree and the waiter said they overcooked the chicken and had to remake it? It came at the end of our meal as we were finishing up. Not sure how that happens, my guess is they forgot the order entirely until we asked where our salad was. It was not just me, but my whole family who all felt the same sentiment on a special night out for celebration. Save your time and money. I will not be coming back here.

This style of papaya salad I enjoyed more than the Thai alternative I am used to making and eating. The noodle bowl was delicious and creamy.

    I would totally give this place a 4.5-4.75. My friend and I…read moretried out this place for lunch. We got there around 12 Noon on a Friday and we were the only ones dining in. A few people came to pick up. We ordered the #1 stuffed chicken wings and the #11 clear vermicelli noodle salad with 4 meatballs. The owner was working alone so she was the cashier, waitress and chef. I've never been to Cambodia so can't comment on authenticity but the food was definitely homemade with love. Inside the ambience is very "hole in the wall" but that doesn't bother me. The owner had left our Clorox wipes so we wiped down the table ourselves. The food was absolutely incredible. I loved the noodle salad with bits of kale, crunch of cucumbers, and a refreshing sauce. The meatballs did taste like lemongrass as someone else had mentioned. It was a perfect balance of flavors. I'm not a huge fan of fish sauce but there was no fishiness whatsoever. The stuffed chicken wings were made from the flat part of a chicken wing except without the bone. These are a labor of love for the chef to extract the bone and wrap the meat and stuffing with the skin. It was delicious but seemed like an ingredients of the stuffing was already in my salad. The rice was scorched a tad like Korean scorched rice which gave bites of texture. I liked the wings and they were good but I really loved the noodle salad. I don't know if the owner has other employees but I would warn you to order in advance and be prepared to wait. We didn't mind as we were catching up but I could see that if it gets busy, she will need more help. If you are in the area, want to try new and different flavors, and have time to spare, give this place a try. I'm looking forward to going back to try other dishes.
