Great Thai food spot on this side of town, I've enjoyed every single dish I've tried here. Service wise I usually come in during lunch times and get my orders fairly quickly. read more

My fiancé and I have been ordering DoorDash delivery or pickup from here for a few years now and in my opinion, it's some of the best Thai food in the area. We had family in town this week and we decided to order takeout from here one night. My family was raving about the distinct flavors each dish had, and it's why we keep coming back. We've also dined in once, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were enjoying our meal and were comfortable. All in all, we'd HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone in the area. The best dish: Yellow Sapphire Curry... it's a must try!! read more

Pains me to write a bad review for this place. Quality has very slowly been going downhill. The yellow curry is not how it used to be anymore, recipe is different tasting. I also have a suspicion that whenever I order takeout and don't tip, the food becomes "accidentally" wrong to some degree. I order golden noodles for my family every single week and if I do tip, it's perfect. If I do not tip, there's either minimal curry sauce or it is spicy ( I set it to zero spice). read more

The staff is always super friendly and the food is done fast. Their curry is amazing, and their noodle dishes always a family favorite. It is one of the coziest Thai places around, with their big aquarium and good ambiance. They have been very accommodating when visiting with disabled family members. read more

The food was good. But there was nothing special that stands out. The price was reasonable. The interior is decent. The staff is polite. Massaman curry and chicken pad Thai were the items I tried. read more

As you can tell from my last review, I have been frequenting this Noppakao location for 10 years. I still say the food quality is consistently 3.5 - 4 stars. However, I have to knock a star off for their abysmal lunch order take-out PORTION SIZE. I get it, inflation is a real thing, I really do. But I paid $14.59 (before tax and tip) for two pieces of chicken and barely any sauce. I had over double the amount of rice to the entree. And when you get it to go, you don't even get the salad and pad thai option that you do dining in for lunch. Beware when ordering lunch take-out. read more

The food was ok. The broccoli beef and rice were cold and bland. I've had better. After finishing, we were asked to move to a different table so they could accommodate a large party where we were sitting. read more

We called ahead of time for a party of 15 on a Saturday afternoon and fortunately it wasn't busy so we were able to be seated when we arrived. There is another location in Everett and this location is in the Kirkland area close to Juanita Bay. I ordered the panang curry with chicken ($16.29) at spice level 2. For the curries the spice levels ranged from 2 to 5, whereas other dishes ranged from 1 to 5. The curry was decent with a good portion of meat; I probably could've gone up to level 3 but I never know because restaurants have such a large and inconsistent range for spice levels. Note that their lunch menu and prices are only during the week, so on the weekend we ordered off the dinner menu for the prices, even during lunch time. It was on the pricey side for Thai food and although the food was decent, it didn't match the price. read more

This place has really gone downhill! The last two times I ordered from their website, paid and received confirmation they don't have the order when I got there to pick up. I showed them the confirmation I got and they then have to search their system to find it and then they START to make it. Here is a suggestion - if you can't get your website ordering and processing right then turn it off! read more

Very friendly, quick service but the food here is really the spotlight. Not a bad dish and we had seven. Wish we lived in the area so I could eat here more often. read more

When we first moved to Kirkland back in 2010, Noppakao used to be one of our local favorites. I moved here from LA, re land of a thousand Thai restaurants, and i dared say the 2002 Noppakao was up there with some of the best I've had. Over the years ownership changed and so did the food and after several disappointing experiences we stopped going. On a quiet Monday evening we worked later than planned and had to scramble for dinner. Our usual go to restaurants were closed so we thought we should give Noppakao another try. There were only 2 other tables there with us. We ordered chicken wings, pad woo sen, and Lemongrass chicken. The chicken wings were not fresh, tasted like the wings had long expired before being fried and served up. After a couple bites i could not eat anything anymore and we just left with much sadness. read more

This is a good family Thai spot with good ambiance. There are plenty of regulars and the employees there are very good with our kids who can be outright beasts. I was surprised to see the 3 star rating on Yelp but I'm too tired to read into it. The little one loves chicken fried rice and manages to eat the lion share off the dish - the rest ends up on the floor. Phad see ew is really nice too. Give it a shot if you have a big fam and want to get out of the house. You'll probably see me with mine, throwing chicken fried rice at the fish tank. :-| read more

2 stars only because in the 20 years of eating here and enjoying the food, the server Sawitree was beyond rude. Sawitree, harassing customers is unacceptable and I hope you fix your attitude because being super rude then saying thank you in a nice voice at the end won't cut it. read more

Good food. Ordered 3 spice but came with no spice. However an assortment of three spices saved the day. I suggest you request these amazing spices. Also buy a Groupon. read more

I really like this place because I hadn't tried a lot of Thai food in the area, when I wrote my last review. I was also giving props to Thai fried rice because it taste so much better than regular Chinese fried rice. However, now that I've eaten at Irene's in Woodinville, I have to reevaluate my original score on a lot of restaurants I reviewed previously. My favorite restaurants are: Sea Star, Irene's Thai Cuisine, Oasis Brazilian bbq and the fast casual, Hello Banh Mi! read more

Nice atmosphere. Great service. Had masuman curry. Plain and ordinary. My lunch mates had pad Thai which they thought was excellent read more

Consistency is key. Last night this place dropped the ball. Usually their dishes are cooked to perfection and taste great. Last night our entire order was not good at all. Ordered pad-see-ew and the noodles came in tiny pieces, and were mushy. This dish is usually very tasty with big wide noodles and great sauce. Fried rice was also gummy and didn't taste fresh, barely had meat in it. Fried potstickers appeared to be deep fried and dried out. I thought these were supposed to be pan fried. I'm disappointed with the lack of consistency/cooking technique and care. With delivery and $10 off the meal/order cost $65 and some change. Not sure I will return to this establishment. read more

We had some family over and decided to try this place for dinner. We ordered takeout and it was kind of a pain picking up our food. The lady at the front said our food wasn't ready and she would let me know when it is. However, the food was ready and was sitting at the table. Good thing I decided to look after a few minutes or else I would have been there for a while. Pad Thai: pretty standard, nothing special Pork ribs: the ribs was on the tougher side and it was salty. Halibut: the fish was a little overcooked and the sauce was definitely on the sour side Calamari salad: decent, refreshing on a hot day. The price was ok in some and pricy in others but portion was good. Service could been better in my opinion. read more

The food is tasty, the Thai tea is very good. The employees are very friendly. I have only order out, but they arecquick and it's still hot after driving to lynnwood read more

Lovely restaurant. Great location. The peanut sauce is well balanced, perfect consistency. The wings are outstanding! Wasn't a fan of the calamari. Too heavily breaded. When I shared my concern they took it back no question with an offer of replacement. This is one of the qualities I look for in any service provider. I understand my tastes may differ from others. I appreciate it when I do not have to defend my preferences. Wonderful service. Highly recommend. read more

Chicken pad thai is my go-to whenever I am craving Thai. Noppakao always hits the spot! The spicy level fluctuates heavily! Sometimes you get no spice but other times you're feeling the burn. I like the ~surpise~. The portions are very generous, you truly get a BRICK of food. Perfect for leftovers. Yummmmy, highly recommend it! read more

Excelente servicio. La señora que nos tomó la orden es muy agradable. Nos reconoció aunque no habíamos venido desde hace varios meses. Ordené un See rah cha (no miento, así se llama, como la salsa), y Joe un Phad kee mao con tofu. Y claro, no podía faltar un vino blanco (Chardonnay), heladito, perfecto para lo picoso de la comida. Buen servicio, buena comida, buen ambiente. read more

Noppakao Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

For the Yelp Big Night In during April, our family ended up ordering from 5 different places. I ordered Thai from Noppakao located in the Juanita Village area of North Kirkland. I ordered through Door Dash. I had Pineapple Fried Rice and Chicken See-Ew. I had never had pineapple fried rice before and am now a fan. It added a bit of sweetness to an otherwise normally salty/savory type of dish. I will look for it on future visits. My other item I ordered was Chicken See-Ew. They never asked me for my spicy level selection (2 stars usually) and automatically put down "No Spicy" on the ticket and in the dish. But other than that, the food was great for take out. My portions were large and I had some to share with others. Thanks guys for staying open during the pandemic. read more

Average Thai fare. We got pad see ew, pad kee mao and pad Thai. Panang curry, vegetables in this were basically raw still. The noodle dishes were average. They have a big saltwater fish tank that's clean. Bathrooms were clean. We got beef in the flat noodle dishes, chicken in the pad thai and panang. Portions were fair. This was all takeout because we got a GrubHub gift card. Service at the counter was friendly. I would return to this business. read more

Ordered online for pick up, and when we got to the restaurant at the appointed time, they claimed they didn't see the order come in, so it hadn't been started. When they finally brought the bag, we asked if there were 5 meals in there and were told yes. Got to our destination 20 minutes away, and found we were missing a meal. Stopped in on our way home to ask for a refund, and we were told that they couldn't issue one because I ordered online. The gal even tried arguing that there were 5 meals in the bag. What the heck?? They offered to comp us with a free meal, but I don't really want to go back there so now I'm out the price of the meal, my tip & a "service charge". Avoid! read more

Food Luke is warm to cold when should be hot. Ordered a seafood basket. The eggplant dish wasn't cooked throughout should be soft, not hard also duck in the dish was lukewarm and tasted funny. Not recommended. read more

I got the golden noodle. First time having a curry mixed into rice noodles but it tasted fine. Large portions so definitely share food if you give it a try. We got takeout and it was pretty fast. We drove over and the food was ready. The pick up area is a little cramped but we didn't have to wait there long to pay and grab our food. We went there out of convenience for location by Juanita beach so if in the area we will maybe try again read more

Arrived 50min before closing (10:30pm) on a Saturday night and was ushered out stating they're "closed".

**UPDATED YUMMMM! Flavor has improved since my last review and they remembered my brown rice yay! You can tell they're committed to making customers happy. So glad because the lunch special is a deallll and so convenient for where i work! Thanks! read more

The servers and kitchen workers here are wonderful, great customer service. Good soup. Good appetizers. Their noodle dishes are a bit overcooked for my taste but I've brought people who say they're fans of their pad Thai and pad see ew. Their portions are definitely generous. My favorite to go order usually consists of a variation of either chicken satay, Tom Kha soup, or their Green Curry. They put generous amounts of eggplants and curry base in their green curry so I recommend ordering an extra side of rice to soak it all up with (or for leftovers) read more

I've come here for years and have enjoyed going into the restaurant (they have a nice interior) and most recently a take-out order through DoorDash that had a significant error - one of the four items I ordered was completely incorrect. I ordered the banana coconut ice cream dish and I received fried ice cream, no banana coconut in sight. When I let the restaurant know they had made this error, I was given a $3.80 refund on a $12 item. !!!! They have forever lost my business (a 25 year customer!) due to not making things right. Come on already! This is Business 101 read more

Couldn't give it a five star because it was good food but did not have a wow factor. I loved the Pad Thai noodles and fried rice. Really good portions, shared with a roommate and for lunch the next day. read more

Tried to give this place another try after 4 failed attempts...yes I know should have gone somewhere else but they are convenient smh...but have been ordering their yellow curry and every time it is either a 5 star when should be 1 or the vegetable like the potato's aren't cooked through so you are bitting into a semi soft/hard mush ball! When I specifically told the people to cook it longer!!! Take the food back and tell them about it and they smiling laughing about it...like you can clearly see the difference in color between cooked and uncooked...I guess their vision is a little obstructed read more

The pad see ew is really great. The seafood curry was a little over cooked, but also good. The pineapple fried rice did not feel fried and was heavy on the yellow curry. We would not recommend that one. The massaman curry was okay. Some people in our group loved it and some people hated it. The Thai tea is large. The place is not super clean, but it's clean enough to eat in. Staff: 2/5 Food: 4/5 Location: 4/5 read more

Disappointed. A VERY tiny piece of Halibut for over $20. It's Moonlight Halibut in their menu. Stick with their curries instead. Least it comes with large amounts of curry soup! read more

Convenient location, decent lunch specials. Don't expect a lot of protein, though. Giving it 2 stars because the food is decent but nothing special and the customer service has never been spectacular. Seems like high turnover on wait staff. Recently I arrived at 8:50pm after a long day (they're open until 9:30pm) and they turned us away. Pretty frustrating after taking a detour. I'm pretty sure 40 minutes is plenty of time to eat. read more
