Hands down one of the most delicious and flavorful Thai food I have had. I'm surprised at the quality and freshness and authenticity of the food! The ambiance is so comforting, like you're in a living room. The staff is unbelievably nice and the food came out fast. The curry puffs are to die for. I got the basil fried rice and pad see ew for entree, and it was the best decision ever. Both were full of flavor and it was such a memorable dining experience. read more

We stopped in after a whale watching tour and it was so great. Not only was the food amazing, the staff were so friendly. The service was so speedy as well. Not to mention the actual restaurant itself was so cute. I wish this was somewhere I could go more often!! We got an appetizer and a dessert because we were hungry and I'm so glad we did. read more

Used to be at least 4 stars if not 5, but they've raised the prices and decreased the portions recently. I'm a local and used to eat here about 3 to 4 times a month but the prices have made that impossible now. The food is still terrific, though. Just wish I had gotten more than 5 pieces of pineapple in my Pineapple Fried Rice that I paid $16 for. read more

Got a to go order-we were surprised it was ready in 15 minutes. The apps: crab Rangoons delicious, you can tell they're homemade, full of flavor, we really enjoyed those. Wonton wrapped shrimp was also very good had lots of flavor! They have the apps down. My husband got duck panaang curry-it was really watery and we felt lacked flavor. I go the chicken and shrimp avocado curry, it was spicy like I requested but beyond spicy it lacked the flavor and was watery as well. Being by the ocean I was really disappointed there were a total of 2 shrimp in my curry! Pretty cheap and skimpy! I wouldn't return again. It left me feeling I wish I would have tried another restaurant. read more

Made a web order for pickup; it was predicted to be ready at 6:10, but it was about 10 minutes later. It was a busy Saturday night, so not unreasonable, and the woman at the counter was super nice. One thing to note is that unlike most Thai restaurants I've been to, menu prices are for "no meat". Which means, if you want chicken, pork, tofu, or veggies, it's an extra $1, or $3 for beef, prawns, or squid, etc. I had a cup of Tom Kha soup, spice level 10, with veggies. It was very spicy, as promised, but I found the soup base lacking flavor. My husband had a Thai Garden with tofu, and a sub of brown for white rice (a reasonable $1 extra). It had an excellent assortment of nine different veggies. He said the brown sauce had some sweetness and saltiness, but neither were overpowering. (Note that the default for tofu is pan fried if you don't specify anything different.) In another visit, I placed a lunch order to go at the counter. It took about 20-25 minutes to get our food. I had (Pad) See Ew. For my "meat" I chose extra veggies, but asked only for more broccoli and carrots. The receipt clearly shows that, as well as my request to use (Pad) Kee Mao sauce instead of the sweeter See Ew sauce. But I have to say, the sauce was still very sweet, and the amount of broccoli and carrots were pretty sparse, so it's almost as if they didn't pay attention to the order. But it's clearly written out, so it could be that it normally comes with even less veggies, and an even sweeter sauce. The noodles were very good; thick, chewy, and not stuck together as sometimes happens. The broccoli was perfectly cooked. My husband ordered the Garlic dish, this time requesting soft tofu, and brown rice. They have an excellent brown rice, which includes not just brown rice, but a blend of two other rices (wild & sticky?). He felt the quantity was a bit on the light side, but it was tasty and well cooked. He regretted getting the tofu soft, as it was added afterwards, so didn't have any flavor absorbed. Spiciness levels are 0-10, PLUS 'Super Super Spicy'. I found level 7 to be not as hot as expected, my husband felt similarly about his level 5. But as mentioned above, level 10 was indeed very spicy. Overall, service was friendly, though there was a bit of a wait both times. The food was decent. Sometimes quite good, sometimes a bit disappointing. read more

This review is delayed from when I actually visited (March '24) but my group and I had a wonderful time! I wish I wrote it when it was fresh on my mind, but alas here we are. My group and I ordered several entrees and appetizers to share amongst the 4 of us so that we could try lots of things, and ever since then, I recommend doing that any time you are eager to explore a menu! We tried 7 different things and yet it cost us each like $20, which is pretty amazing considering all that we ate. One of my favorites was the curry puff. The crust was the satisfying buttery-flaky kind. So good! Next time I find myself in Anacortes, I will definitely be back!! Don't miss out! read more

Could of been an off day, but we won't be returning. The chicken in the Larb tasted like it was spoiled. It is a dish I have had repeatedly in other restaurants that I loved! The Fresh Summer rolls were mostly lettuce and a couple of noodles, no other veggies. The Spring Rolls also lacked ingredients, could only see a carrot. Panang Curry had all the ingredients but lacked flavor. Totally a waste of money . read more

Okay, so the Tom Yum soup is misleading because they have a picture of serving it in a metal ring fire warmer which presentation wise looks super cool. There's even a picture of it on their menu. But when I asked about this, they said it just comes in a regular bowl. So, kind of misleading. I would give it 5 stars for the price and for the green curry. However, the three star is for the pad thai that tastes like ketchup (I don't think they actually use real tamarind sauce? It's missing the sweet and sour tang and that deep flavor of pad thai that I was so looking forward to). I really had high hopes for the restaurant because of its price point. However presentation wise, it was probably a 4.5. Not bad. I'd say update the menu so it's not misleading and change your pad thai sauce to be real pad thai... then I'll change this to a 5. Would love to try the mango curry and fried ice cream still one day. read more

I found a small, sharp piece of metal in our lunch combo takeout - chicken rama. I'm so glad i didn't swallow it. The owner has not shown any interest or offered to explain or compensate.

A-Mazing!!! We're in town for a few days from Arkansas and we wanted a nice Thai place. This place did not disappoint! We ordered the wide noodle ramen in peanut sauce with veggies. It was delicious. The peanut sauce is amazing. We also ordered Mama's Ramen, it was fabulous. The appetizers we ordered we green beans in garlic sauce, it was robust in garlic flavor. And the Puffs, so good! And for dessert the waiter recommended the coconut ice cream, which is not on the menu. It was Devine! This place is a must. Clean, cozy, relaxing, and nice fast service. read more

We love us our Thai food. Problem is there aren't many good Thai places in our area. We were planning on visiting Anacortes anyway and our son said he'd pass this restaurant when commuting to work. The Yelp reviews were great and so we made this our destination. Upon entering the smallish restaurant, what strikes you about the interior is it's beautiful, tasteful simplicity. It's small but the tables are arranged in a circular pattern next to the windows. We chose to sit at a table in the center of the room. There was a delightfully subtle scent I first encountered during my college days when taking yoga and mediation classes. It was the late '70s and that scent was everwhere. So points already for immediately hooking me with nostalgic sense memories. There was also beautiful piano music playing on the sound system. So even before we were given our menus a nice, comforting mood had already been set. Josh was our waiter and he quickly brought out our menus. Our son's favorite Thai dish is Pad See Ew with beef (called See Ew on the menu here). It's also my wife's favorite dish but she prefers it with pork. Me, I'm a Garlic Delight with beef man but I do love my crispy duck on special occasions. This was one of them. All the food came to the table quickly. The appetizers and Thai Iced Teas were timed so as to be served at a decent interval before the rest of the dishes came out. So here's the rundown on the dishes and their LARGE portions. I don't use numbers because I'm a words guy! Anyway... Tom Yum Soup--level 4 heat. This is the Thai version of the Chinese Hot & Sour Soup. I didn't see vinegar on the ingredients list, just lemongrass and lime leaves, both of which wouldn't really impart that sour edge I love so much with this type of soup. You can read the menu for the rest of what was in there. I didn't taste any sour here at all. But that was fine because the broth enhanced by the heat was delightful. I chose squid as the protein for the soup and there were two nice size pieces scored nicely with a small, sharp knife. My wife and son's shared belief is that perhaps the spice level covered up the sour flavor. I don't think so. Even without the sour flavor component it was a stand-out soup. Giew Grob--no heat. Thai version of Crab Rangoon. Like every crab rangoon I've ever had there was no taste of crab in there but it was still crisp and delicious--and hot as an temperature hot not spicy hot.It was served with a sweet & sour dipping sauce. Spring Rolls--no heat. Another hot dish tempwise but crisp and delicious appetizer. Served with a uniquely different peanut dipping sauce made with chopped peanuts. Spicy Crispy Duck--level 4 heat. The duck was absolutely delicious,. well cooked, tender and flavorful. It wasn't cooked on the rare side as it would be in a fine-dining restaurant, but this was a great example of Thai-style cookingt. BUT I have to deduct a point because the skin was not crispy. I was looking forward to crispy rendered skin, but the skin was soft. To me, if you're going to call a dish crispy then that's exactly what it should be. As for spicy, well, my ordering level 4 heat took care of that. Oh, the dish had an amazing, aromatic sauce. I made sure I poured all that I could from the platter into the takeout container. See Ew with Beef and with Pork (two separate orders). Our son ordered his beef see ew dish at level 4 heat; my wife ordered her pork version with no heat. They loved their dishes. The beef was sliced while the pork meat was more chopped. Both were very happy with their dishes. I sampled both and and also enjoyed them but I've never been a fan of Thai noodle dishes overall. Fried Rice--level 1 heat. Perfectly cooked rice with flavors that stood on their own without the addition of meat, poultry or seafood. Jasmine Rice. Perfectly cooked large scoop of the aromatic stuff. Thai Iced Tea. Made just the way my wife and I like it. We chose the 8 oz glass because a 16 oz glass is A LOT of Thai Iced Tea no matter how good it is. Midway during our meal, Jack took over for Josh. Both servers were equally warm and friendly and wholly professional. Jack was the one who thanked us as we were leaving but Josh also popped in there. Overall a wonderful dining experience with well-made, delicious Thai food at reasonable prices. For us, Naung Mai Thai Kitchen will still be destination dining for us. read more

We chose this Thai restaurant for dinner on our little weekend getaway and were very happy with this choice! It's a cozy restaurant with nice, modern decor and great food and service. We had the chicken wings, Rama vegetables and green curry, with Thai tea. All were delicious, and just the right amount of spice for us. Would love to come back when we're in the area again! Happy eating! read more

We just did not have a good experience. Our waitress accidentally used a swearword at our table when things didn't go well for her, and there were five kids with us who heard it. That was only the beginning..., out of the seven orders that we made, three of them were wrong, and the waitress was actually defensive when we explained that that is not what we ordered. Then to top it all off, our bill included our neighbors lunch. We got the lunch specials, and I just wish their portions were bigger, because even all our kids were still hungry afterward. Combine all of these elements, and it is safe to say that I won't be going back, read more

I've got to say, don't know if they have new cooks, but the last two time I've ordered my usual meal, at the spice level I normally order, it's been to hot to eat, very disappointing, I eat there a lot. I normally order a 5, but the last time I ordered a 5, I couldn't eat it, today I ordered a 4, and it's the same shit, I'm not happy, not sure what's Groton with them, I've had nothing but nice to say about them, but right now I'm thoroughly disappointed. Well I'm not a baseball player, I'm two strikes out, I'm playing for the third, not sure what's happened with the place, but I've always had great meals, except the last two, but I'm thoroughly done with them for a while, maybe some day I'll revisit and give them a shot, but if it's the same as the last two meals, I'm definitely done going, so sad, because I do enjoy good food, read more

I noticed Naung Mai on my last visit to Anacortes but it was Monday, so they were not open. I really wanted to bring my wife, also Thai, to see what she thought of it. First, her review...she loved it, which is high praise given she doesn't like very many Thai restaurants in the U.S. Let me back up and share my thoughts. From the street, you notice that not only is it in a good location (on the main drag), but it has a cool look to it. Great curb appeal. As we walked in, the cool factor continued. We were greeted by very friendly staff who promptly got us seated and came around to take our order. The menu had lots of tasty sounding dishes, but it was a really easy choice based on clear descriptions of what was in the dishes. After placing our orders, I looked around and took in the sights and sounds of the restaurant. How it is set up, even though you are not far away from other customers, there is still a sense of privacy at your table, especially when you are on the outside tables with the window view. There are a lot of live plants hanging around that makes it feel quite authentic to restaurants in Thailand. When the food arrived, it was tasty and had just the right spice level based on their numbering system, which isn't always the case, so definitely kudos there. The dishes were also well-presented on plates that were quite authentic looking. It truly was an inviting experience that made us want to go back again when we return to Anacortes. read more

Great service, enjoyed the food. Heat level up to 11 if you dare. Interior nicely decorated and a beautiful garden outside the restaurant.

Been to Anacortes and stumbled upon the place when I was craving for Thai. The staff was very friendly and gave special accomodation as we had an infant with us. I was here on Saturday night and I was still able to get table without wait. Within a hour tables got filled and staff became busy and slow. Crab wontons - 5/5 one of the best crab wontons. Very trust and yummy hot filling. Shrimp fried rice - 4/5 you won't go wrongFrie here. But not one of the best I have had in Thai restaurant. Spicy fried chicken curry - 4/5 this is a house special so I expect more. Less meat and more veggies. Small white rice bowl. The chicken was well done though. Great spices. You will love it if you are into veggies as well - I'm a meat person:) Mango sticky rice - 3/5 Here is where I was disappointed a bit. It was not very sweet. Mango and rice was hard to cut with spoon, I excepted them to be soft. Overall, great Thai place in Anacortes. Worth the try - you won't go wrong here. read more

We started with the Spicy Crispy Chicken and Panang Curry with squid. They were so good we added a fried ice cream. $33. We ordered everything using their order and pay app from the qr code on the table. It was easy to order and pay. We got the spicy crispy chicken and the Panang with level 5 heat. The Panang was flavorful with a level 3 heat. The squid were fresh and flavorful. The spicy crispy chicken was level 4 spicy! crispy! And full of all of my favorite Thai flavors. There was a new taste in every bite and the amount of different vegetables was impressive. The only negative was that a few bites tasted overly salty. The fried ice cream was a little above average but a little more fry and a roll in cinnamon and sugar would make it a dessert to remember. Also, I have to mention how nice and attentive the staff was to us. They made the dining experience extra special. This is not just another Thai restaurant. It's worth having plenty of meals here. read more

I had a terrific soup. Service was pleasant, but Unfortunately the service was slow, both at the entrance and the table, and it was not all about the number of customers-the design of the room is not ideal for visibility and more training for all employees seems relevant. The to-go container for the soup was ridiculously cheap- it collapsed when I pushed the lid down, expelling a sizable portion of the soup, which was in the bottom half of the container. No employees were within sight again. The plastic also did not seem to be rated for hot liquids and seemed possibly unsafe as far as chemical leeching. read more

This place was an unexpected treat during our road trip on the way back to Seattle! It felt super cozy inside and everyone was very kind and attentive. I got the vegetarian basil fried rice and it was delicious! The spice was just perfect for a level 3 and the rice was flavorful. I also got a Thai Iced Tea which was great, one of the better ones I've had at Thai restaurants actually. My friends got a panang curry that they weren't a huge fan of, which is why I knocked one star off unfortunately. The curry was pretty liquidy and not as flavorful as expected. Overall, glad we found this place pand it's definitely worth a try! read more

Naung Mai Thai Kitchen - Basil Fried Rice and Thai Iced Tea - Thai Near Me - Anacortes, Washington

My wife and I love Thai food: the spice, the noodles, the curry... what's not to love? We were in the area and Naung Mai had the best reviews, so we were excited to try it out. The restaurant was about 2/3 full and we were asked to seat ourselves. No problem, I don't mind picking our own table. A few minute after we sit down, another couple sits at a table next to us. I watch a server bring them water glasses and take their order. I stare deeply into my wife's eyes to pass the time. The two servers appear overwhelmed and are in a hurry whenever they pass by, so we continue to wait. A gentleman walks by and asks if we've been helped; he'll find someone to take care of us. Moments later, a waitress arrives and we put in our order for drinks (iced Thai tea & coffees), appetizers (satay and calamari), and entrees (2* chicken pad Thai and 3* yellow curry with beef). Ten minutes pass. My wife grabs a server as they're running by and asks if we can get our drinks. "You want to order drinks?" No, we already did. A couple minutes later our drinks show up. We both love both drinks and would gladly order them again. About ten minutes later, our entrees show up. We remind our server that we ordered apps. "Oh, yeah. Do you want me to put these back under the warmer?" No thanks, we'll just start. A minute later, our apps show up. Satay is like chicken leather and almost impossible to remove from the skewer, with peanut sauce that's gray and the consistency of peanut butter. Calamari looks and tastes like onion rings but has a tasty and intriguing sauce. Yellow curry is mild and bland, with beef that's massively over cooked and takes minutes to chew, again like jerky. The potatoes in the curry were the most flavorful component, which was disconcerting. Pad Thai is very spicy, to where my wife can barely eat it. I like heat more than she does and it was borderline uncomfortable for me, definitely not a 2* (of 5). First time I can remember going out to Thai food and leaving our leftovers on the table. I felt sick afterwards to the point where I had trouble sleeping. Definitely a hard pass from me. read more
