The food is generally…read morewell-prepared but limited by that old school profile (white sauce/brown sauce, neon red sweet and sour, etc.). Sleeper standouts include fried dishes, especially the General Tso chicken, fluffy fried rice, and the hot and sour soup, which is, surprisingly, the best I've had anywhere, with a good punch of vinegar. I would avoid if you're looking for seafood, a less Americanized menu, or house-made BBQ pork or similar. Great place to eat in if you don't mind a dive and want to be alone on your lunchbreak like me--otherwise takeout is standard.

I chose the lunch special with General Tso's chicken that included egg fried rice, an egg roll, and a choice of hot and sour or egg flower soup. The hot and sour soup was nice, good temperature and not too spicy for my taste. The pieces of General Tso's chicken were perfectly cooked, nice and crispy on the outside yet juicy on the inside. Nice and thick sauce as well, not too spicy. Only $11.25 and plenty of food for my appetite to allow for a second, leftover meal later. All in all, an excellent experience! Thank you!

There's an old saying that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I'd like to update that for the…read moremodern era by saying don't judge a Thai restaurant by the number of Minions on the shelves. Thai Smile isn't trying to impress anyone with its interior. It's a casual little spot where you order at the counter, grab a seat, and let the food do the talking. The decor is an eclectic mix of Minion collectibles and what I can only describe as "yard sale chic." Somehow, instead of feeling cluttered, it just feels comfortable. Judging by the steady stream of takeout orders while I was there, the locals have already figured out what matters. And what matters is the food. I stopped in for a casual business lunch and ordered the Kua Kai. The noodles were perfectly cooked, the chicken was tender, everything tasted incredibly fresh, and the presentation was honestly much more elegant than I expected from such an unassuming little restaurant. It looked like someone genuinely cared about what landed on the plate, and it tasted that way too The person I was having lunch with actually lives in the area but had never been there before. By the end of the meal, she was already talking about coming back. Is this your anniversary dinner destination? Probably not. But if you've been together long enough that neither of you feels the need to impress the other with fancy light fixtures and reclaimed barn wood, you're going to have a fantastic meal. For me, this is an easy recommendation. Great food, friendly service, and proof that sometimes the best restaurants spend a little less money decorating the shelves and a little more effort perfecting what's on the plate.

We ordered the 5 Pieces Coconut Prawns, 2 pieces All Veggie Roll, Tom Kah soup, Pad See Ew w/Chicken Breast and BBQ Pork Fried Rice. Both of the appetizers were great. The shrimp were crispy and the coconut was there but not overpowering. The veggie rolls were crisp, fresh and flavorful. The peanut sauce was just right. The Tom Kah soup was light and flavorful. I would have liked more veggies but it was really tasty. The Pad Se Ew with chicken was great. It didn't have as much noodles as I'm used to but was full of very tender chicken and vegetables. The BBQ fried rice was amazing! The pork was flavorful and tender and the rice was beautifully done. The portions for the mains were pretty big and we have leftovers. I thought the appetizers were overpriced for what you got while the other items were priced appropriately. We'll definitely return

Buathong Thai definitely makes our top 5 Thai restaurants in Oregon. Do not pass this restaurant…read moreup, you'll regret it! The prices may turn you off at first, $20-$25 a plate, in this economy, eww... BUT Buathong does you a solid by making that $20/plate stretch. Trust me when I say, as a recently pregnant woman, currently breastfeeding hungry madwoman, the plates are easily 3-4 servings per order! This place is amazing like that... Now to the good stuff- the must orders. Pad Thai! Whether you get it with their crying tiger beef or just chicken, their pad thai is absolutely delicious! The dish is always consistent and the flavor board is spot on. I hate super sweet tasting pad thai, and Buathong lays in on the smokey, subtly saucy, perfectly sweet and sour flavors of what a pad thai dish is supposed to taste like. Their thai pho is also cooked to perfection with plenty of melt in your mouth beef cuts. Papaya salad? Refreshing, flavorful, and leaves you feeling guiltless. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. From the amazing food to the friendly service, this restaurant is a no-brained for us when we're in the Milwaukie area.

Their hours are scratched off the window, so there is no way to tell when they are supposed to be open. I have figured out they are closed Mondays. Also seems they close at other random times.

When I am able to get in here to eat, the staff are sometimes friendly and other times somewhat rude.
