Noi Thai Cuisine is where my Thai best friend and I go whenever she is in town! It is one of the best Thai restaurants in Seattle and is certified as Thai Select which certifies its Thai authenticity. They have locations both in Downtown Seattle and Greenlake, but I have only been to their Downtown Seattle location which has a beautiful view of the Puget Sound. The atmosphere is dark, trendy, and modern- perfect for a date night or nice evening out. While they are a white table cloth, sit-down restaurant, you can dress casually or dress up a bit - both are completely acceptable. This most recent visit I ordered the COCONUT PANANG CURRY with chicken ($25.95) and my friend ordered her favorite dish, SALMON GARLIC FRIED RICE ($28.95). On a past visit, I've had their CLAY POT SHRIMP & GLASS NOODLES (KOONG OB WOONSEN) ($27.95) which was absolutely fantastic and has had me hooked on Pad Woonsen ever since! I saw the COCONUT PANANG CURRY recently in my Instagram feed and knew I had to get it. It is served in a whole coconut (yes a real, fresh coconut!) and comes with a champagne flute of fresh coconut juice from the coconut they hollowed out and a side of Jasmine rice. The curry was rich, flavorful, and full of Thai basil and peppers. The coconut juice was light and refreshing and a great contrast to the thick curry. The SALMON GARLIC FRIED RICE (which I've sampled before), is gigantic, aromatic, and served with a giant grilled garlic butter fillet of salmon on top. The salmon is extremely moist, oily, and bursting with flavor. The rice is fragrant and has garlic paste, red bell pepper, carrots, and green onion. If you're looking for a tasty and protein-packed meal, this is the dish! Parking is honestly tough in this area as it's located on 1st. They have limited street parking and a few paid parking garage options around. I recommend light railing or Ubering here if you're not already in the downtown Seattle area. Service is always great and we always get our food quickly, no matter how crowded they are. The staff also take the time to check up on your table during your meal. Overall: 5/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere read more

We had some Resy credits to use up through American Express and found that Noi Thai in Seattle downtown was an option on the Resy platform. Time to try it out on a beautiful Spring day in Seattle. It's located close to Pike Place Market so planning a fun day involving these two places was a breeze. The restaurant had a beautiful Thai interior. The chairs we were seated in were not that comfortable, however. Service was efficient and straightforward. We ordered an appetizer and two dishes. The dishes were salmon fried rice and Pad Sei-Iew. I feel bad but we were not that impressed with their food. Fried rice was really salty and Pad Sei-Iew was also on the saltier side. I am not sure if we will return given the lackluster quality of the foods. Perhaps when we have another outing in the downtown area, we might give it a try again to try other dishes. read more

Food (4/5): We ordered the crying tiger ($30.95), pineapple fried rice ($27.95), spicy thai basil stir-fry ($26.95), and pad sei-lew ($26.95). Everything was solid, but the portions were on the smaller side. Compared to other Thai places, it runs a little pricier without being noticeably better on the food side. Service (5/5): We made a reservation and were seated immediately. The staff were friendly throughout our meal. If you're planning to visit during peak weekend hours, I definitely recommend booking ahead. Overall: It's a great place if you're looking for a nice, modern environment, but you're mostly paying for the upscale setting rather than the food itself. read more

Ran into this place after walking around Seattle. It's located next to apartment building on the upper flow so if you're not in the area you won't notice it. We decided to sit outside cause it was a nice night however ended up moving inside due to it started to get called. The vibe of this place is beautiful and the staff is well attentive. We decided to start with these chicken bits on top of pineapple which were okay. My friend really liked them. I ordered the steak salad and got 3 spicy. It was spicy but delicious. We also got the beef larb and he got a 4 spicy. Everything was delicious. This was my first time here and definitely won't be my last. read more

They have an amazing outdoor patio that is under Glass, but still open air on the sides. If you're able and lucky enough to get down here on a sunny day, it just might be one of the best places to grab some lunch. I had the chicken pad Thai and it was amazing, and they have a special lunch menu from 12 PM to 2:30 PM. I will definitely come back! read more

We had an excellent experience at Noi Thai! I booked a reservation through Resy and we were immediately greeted and congratulated on celebrating our special occasion that evening by all the staff helping us. Friendly staff and very attentive. The ambiance is a mix of traditional decor with a modern, upscale twist. They have a great location in the heart of downtown Seattle. We started off with a couple of their signature cocktails, Mango Drop and Tiki Maitai. For dinner we enjoyed the Papaya Salad, Bangkok Red Curry, and the Angry Ocean. To top it off, we were surprised with a dessert to end our night. Thank you Noi Thai for making our night special! read more

I met some friends here for dinner but I thought the food was just average. We ordered the salad bites. It came with a very thick syrupy sauce and a variety of toppings like lime wedges, peanuts, toasted coconut flakes, dried shrimp, etc... It included leaves where you'd wrap up the toppings. It was more like eating a chewy leaf with sauce and adding toppings that fell out. Not very culinarily interesting or taste worthy to me. The other appetizer we had was the sampler and the Tom Kah soup. The soup was decent but be careful of lemongrass stalks as those are inedible. Skip the appetizer sampler as we ended up ordering Crying Tiger as a main entree. It was tender enough but lacking flavor. IMHO, the pineapple fried rice was the best dish. There are better Thai places in the area. This place is nice for the views and ambiance. read more

Noi Thai is one of my all time favorite restaurants in any city, anywhere. I have been here probably 20-30 times over the last few years, after walking in for lunch on a random Saturday. Their food is genuinely incredible and what amazes me is the consistency; I order the fried rice and it's the exact same every time, usually down to the plating. I've tried many' dishes off the menu and you really can't go wrong. It's a beautiful restaurant a few blocks up from the waterfront and the interior is warm and classy without feeling stuffy. Service is excellent and really helpful at providing recommendations and working with dietary restrictions. This is my go to spot to bring people because I know it's always a wonderful experience. Can't wait to be back! read more

We come here often for celebratory dinners! The restaurant is beautiful inside. For larger groups, I'd recommend making reservation ahead of time. Food is beautifully presented and decent portion for the size. Flavor wise, it's a little on the sweet side so you have to level up the spice to balance it out. They have a variety of different dishes which makes it perfect for sharing read more

Listen, I cannot say enough great things about this restaurant that I just so happened to stumble upon, being here for work. I love Asian food and I knew that I was going to get some great Thai food while I was in Seattle, because duh! This place was so good. I came back on day three of my work trip with my husband who just flew in, so that he can also experience it! We loved the ambience, the food the customer service, the experience! Every single thing was 10 out of 10 l! The star of the show? That garlic chicken! I still dream about the tenderness of the chicken, the flavors of garlic and sweet spicy, and the crispiness of the breading was PERFECTION! Whew! Don't cheat yourself! read more

A more upscale Thai restaurant in Seattle. There are lots of good Thai restaurants in Seattle, so competition is fierce when it comes to evaluating the qualities of these restaurants. This is around Bai Tong level of fanciness, with a nice drinks menu and relatively pricy dishes. I went at 12pm opening on a Thursday and shortly after, the place filled up with the business lunch crowds. I got the lunch special which was $20.95 for chicken red curry + pad thai, and opted for a $4 surcharge for beef to add to pad thai. Without the surcharge, the pad thai comes with nothing. Well, the price is high but I guess it is the premium of paying for variety in 1 dish. The pad thai was very sweet and salty, a huge miss when it comes to pad thai I have tried in a lot of restaurants. The $4 beef add-on is extreme rip-off where I only got 4 sizable pieces of meat, so skip paying extra for meats/additional toppings. If the add-on price is the same for the regular sized entree, then why skimp to scale it to the amount of pad thai for the lunch special (half portion)? If they do scale it, why not just charge half the price? The noodles were a little undercooked, and I know they are trying for al dente but did not really hit the mark. The curry is fairly spicy at level 2 and very flavorful. The amount of chicken and vegetables is modest yet sufficient, along with rice that is nicely presented. Service is okay. It takes a while to refill water, and the server checked up on me once to see if I needed anything else. Overall, okay Thai place with better and more affordable options elsewhere if you care to make a trek further from the main tourist places. read more

3.5/5, rounding up. The first time we came to Noi Thai, we were impressed. Albeit we were seated outside, which I feel is better than the atmosphere inside where the tables are really close to one another. The food was also more flavorful and the service was actually decent. The most recent time we came, it was later in the evening so maybe that attributed to it, but service was extremely slow. We ordered basically the same dishes, but remembered them being tastier. I had to ask for some chili sauce on the side but the one they gave me was some weirdly sweet sauce instead. We got the clay pot crab with glass noodle and pad kee mao. I'd definitely skip on the crispy taro rolls; the filling was nonexistent so it was pretty much equivalent to eating straight eggroll wrapping. (ordered this the first time) Now would I come here again? Probably. It is quite close to Pike Place and is open late, so it's convenient. Though the food was less memorable this time, I only know of this restaurant to serve the clay pot crab with glass noodle dish. Their menu is pretty extensive and they also have some fun cocktails. read more

I ate here with my friend, and the pad thai that you see in the photo below was $30 including tip. That was pretty expensive, especially since the dish did not taste particularly unique. It was just your typical pad thai. I genuinely think the price came from the presentation -- the little flower garnish -- and the overall ambience of the restaurant. The service was great, though. The staff were very attentive and kept our water filled at all times However, they did interrupt our conversation a few times when it seemed like they could have backed off, especially when the discussion at our table was getting a bit tense or serious. That is more a lack of social awareness from specific staff members rather than the restaurant as a whole, though. I am being nit-picky here. When we arrived, there was about a 15-minute wait since we walked in without a reservation. The waiting area is small, just 2 chairs, but it is separate from the dining area, so you are not sitting there tempted by everyone's orders. There was also someone working the front desk who kept us updated on the wait time and was available to answer any questions about the menu, which I appreciated. I really liked the dim lighting -- it made the atmosphere feel more romantic if that is the what you are going for with your dining companion. If not, it is still a comfortable dimness and not toooo awkward. Just be aware that the space is a bit tight, so you are likely to hear the conversations at the tables next to you. If you are hoping to have a private or sensitive conversation, this might not be the best spot. read more

I've been craving Thai and this place was a short walk from our apartment hotel in Seattle. I booked a reservation on Resy as I heard this place was quite popular. We were seated immediately (arrived 15 mins early) and Quang was assigned as our waiter. He was so friendly and helpful. I ordered a Pinot Grigio ($13) and DH had a beer ($9). We were both pretty set on ordering red chicken curry although he had his one star hotter on the spice level. When you have a craving, you have a craving! We also ordered some of the fresh spring rolls and those were absolutely fantastic. They were huge! And that peanut sauce was fantastic. Much better than I've had elsewhere. We did order the lunch portion, which is why these look pretty small. We were offered to order the dinner portion but we stuck with the lunch portion as he said it was about 70% of the dinner portion might want to take that any consideration if you're super hungry, but it was plenty of food for us Service from Quang was excellent as well as our food, came out fairly quickly, even with a very large table in front of us, the food runners did an excellent job The spice level for each of us was perfect and the curry was very tasty. It was nice to be seated right next to the window as well with a view of the Harbor steps. Definitely worth a visit. Lunch all up was $82 before tip so not an everyday kind of place :). read more

Affordable upscale Thai dining! The restaurant was intimate with dim lighting and lots of seating. I came here on a Thursday around 7 pm and didn't have to wait at all to be seated. The food was 10/10. The pineapple fried rice might be one of the best I've ever had. I was also blown away by the red roasted duck curry (the presentation by the waiter is so cool!) And to top it all off, it only ended up being $30-35/person which I thought was pretty good for the amount of food we got. I will definitely be returning :) read more

Noi Thai in Green Lake is such a gem! The location is perfect! You can take a walk around the lake and then stop in for some amazing Thai food. The restaurant is very clean, with plenty of seating, including comfortable booths that make it great for groups. The food was incredible. I had the Pink Mocktail (passion fruit juice with guava) and it was so refreshing. The Penang Curry served in a fresh coconut with coconut milk and brown rice was flavorful and beautifully presented. We also tried the Pad Crown Moo Pork (gluten-free), which was delicious and cooked perfectly. Overall, everything from the atmosphere to the service and food made for a wonderful experience. Service was great, fast and complete. We will definitely be back! We have been here three or four times read more

A good Thai restaurant to try! I had their pad Thai and crispy garlic chicken. The pad Thai was good! I requested to have wide noodles because I was craving it, and they were able to make the adjustments! The pad Thai was sweet and the noodles were cooked nicely. There was an appropriate amount of meat which I liked. The crispy garlic chicken was very good! Chicken was definitely crispy and it was full of flavors. The service was okay. The servers weren't that enthusiastic. The food didn't take long to make. Ambiance was good! Inside is pretty nice with Joe organized it is and the lighting and layout of it. They also have outdoor seating which is nice to have on a nice day. read more

The food was delicious. The pineapple fried rice was refreshing and the taste of pineapple was perfectly balancing the taste of spices. For a vegetarian, there were only one option in curry: Yello curry which was good as well. The Coconut Thai Iced tea tasted really nice. I would prefer it without the ice as most of it was ice. It would have been nice if there were more vegetarian curry options but there are other main course items too which you could order do it should be alright. Overall the food is really good and I highly recommend it. read more

I picked up a to go order of Crab fried rice (4 star) and Crab Rangoons. Crab fried rice was amazing, the flavor, the texture... the crab.. so good!! I will be reordering this dish as it was very tasteful. I will say respectfully, I added 4 star spice and at best it was 2 spice. The crab fried rice did not necessarily need the extra spice to make it better, but I was aware of the spice levels not exceeding expectations, which is why I chose a 4 star spice. The host was sweet, and very knowledgeable. The ambience was enticing. The crab Rangoon's being nearly $20, and very disappointing. The texture was off, too thick, and I did not feel like it represented Noi Thai. read more

This was my fist meal in Seattle after coming from the airport on a Friday night. We intended to go to the Waterlake location, but it closed very early, so we wouldn't have made it. They let us know before we were seated that the kitchen would be closing soon, so we'd have to order within 10 minutes, which was fine. I got the red curry and my dining companion got the crispy garlic chicken. The crispy garlic chicken has a great flavor. Sweet, garlicky, crunchy. The server said that it was a saucy dish, so it came with rice, but I didn't find the sauciness to be sufficient enough to pair well with rice, but I supposed it needed to come with something. My curry was good, but the portion size felt extremely small, especially for the price. I was satisfied because I went to bed not long after but if I'd have been up for a few hours, I probably would've needed a second dinner. I also ordered a Thai tea, which the server forgot about. He brought it out and comped when I reminded him and ended up comping it from the bill, which I really appreciate. The thing I didn't like about this restaurant was that it was STICKY. From the lobby to the dining table, when walking we could literally hear our soles being pried from the floor as though they were adhered with Elmers. Even the table was sticky. My water glass also had a lipstick print and other stains, so I didn't use it. read more

Next level flair, but a mild Thai flavor. With an incredible location overlooking the Sound, this spot feels like a celebrity hangout. There are prominent gold features across the dining room, and the tables have a lounge-y feeling to them. Almost like you're sitting on a couch with your homies while munching on Thai food. It would be a fun place to kick back for a few drinks. But the food itself was just not hitting. The crab wontons had a super doughy consistency, almost like they weren't cooked all the way through. Even with that, they weren't bad though. I don't think you could make fried cream cheese taste bad if you tried. But on a crab wonton / rangoon scale these were like a 5/10. I tried some of the noodle dishes that my friends had and they were just lackluster. Not much there to write home about. They tasted fine, probably something I could have made. The crispy garlic chicken was the best dish I had by far. They give you a massive amount of chicken which I didn't even come close to finishing. The chicken is also perfectly fried, giving it an outstanding crunch. My only gripe would be that there simply isn't enough sauce on this dish. If you want to eat the chicken alongside the rice, it becomes too dry. Luckily I had leftover wonton sauce to mix with the rice. I'm sure they have to focus on serving drinks here because the rent is so expensive. So I wouldn't come expecting an out-of-this-world meal. Solid place to hang, but there are better places to eat in the area. read more

This place was so good. I was in Seattle for the first time for a conference. I came here one evening after locating this spot online. The reviews were good and the pictures looked great. I walked there from my hotel and entered without a reservation. When I came in they were friendly and found me a seat right away. I ordered a mango drink along with some Coconut Chicken Pang Curry. The drink was oh so good (including the presentation). The food was great!!! They served the chicken in a shelled coconut and gave me a separate glass of the coconut water they extracted from inside. I was so impressed. I've tried Panang Curry in several places, including Thailand. From presentation, to flavor, this was one of the BEST dishes I've had. I'll definitely be back when I make it back to Seattle. read more

Although it's take out. You can still identify the flavor and culinary skill. I only ordered the pad see ew (Thai chow fun). Normally take out can make it soggy, I was only 5 minutes from the restaurant but the rice flat noodle was already soggy. There were watery sauce at the bottom. The rice noodle was overcooked so it broke into pieces. However, the chicken was well pan fried. The broccoli also cooked well done. Flavor wise, it lacked of the intense Thai sweet soy sauce flavor. read more

I've been to the Noi Thai location in Green Lake, so I sort of expected this visit to be decent. In that visit, it was actually for a Yelp event and the service was terrific. The same could be said for this visit, as the server was extremely friendly and helpful. Met up with my friend staying in a hotel nearby and as it was a bit late, this was one of the few places nearby still open. It was a busy Saturday night, but we were still seated immediately. We got right down to it, I got the Spicy Thai Basil Stir-Fry (Khao Ka Prow) - Basil, peppers and other veggies that could be mixed in with the ground chicken that I got. It was good and although flavorful on it's own, there are quite a few additional sauces and oil you can get if you ask. My buddy got the Pad Sei-Iew, he liked it, but asked that he get some of the sauce that noodles were cooked in and as mentioned the server was nice and brought him some. If you're looking for a quick Thai fix, Noi Thai will give you that along with great service. read more
