    Recommended by my friend Tammy who is of Vietnamese persuasion and picky with her dining establishments, therefore I decided to give Pure Thai a go. She was correct, as this hidden gem didn't disappoint. Located in a small strip mall in a modern establishment, it is cozy and inviting to customers. Service was outstanding. We had Kevin who was attentive to our needs. We had the red and green curry entrees with chicken protein.The presentation was artistic and the flavors were just right without too much heat. We have visited numerous Thai restaurants in San Diego, Scottsdale, AZ, LA, CA and Hawaii. Pure Thai easily surpasses the experience of all others. It well worth visiting and giving it a try. Moreover the cost is very reasonable for what you get and experience. Give it a go and let me know your experience.

    The best Thai food ever!! I always order the Tom Kha Ramen dish because it's the best comfort food on a busy rainy day. My husband ordered the Kahri noodles which had wide rice noodles soaked in sauce. He offered me a bite and wow, I may just order that next time! So amazing and a mouthful of flavor!! Will be back here for sure!

    Tom Yum Ramen
    Jasmine V.

    I was recommended this Thai place and did not go in with high hopes as other Thai restaurants I've been trying within the area have not "wow'd" me. They definitely steered me wrong! I ordered the 2 dishes that I was recommended and was really impressed. Ultimate pad thai: I LOVE fat rice noodles and they made it so well in this dish without over cooking it. I think my favorite is actually the seasoning and the fact that there's many proteins. They do not skimp on the size of the shrimp! Tom yum ramen: The fried wonton is honestly my favorite in this lol. Not the main idea of this dish but they fried it so well and it soaked up the soup nicely. Other than that, the Tom yum is the best I've had within the area but I will say it is on the sweeter side. I'm not the biggest fan of ramen noodles but didn't mind it in this and will probably try the one with rice noodles next! Both dishes were a good portion for the price. I would say if you come with a group, it can easily be family style to share multiple dishes. Parking: it's in a shared plaza and right next to the road so I don't think parking should be an issue. I came on a Sunday at 6pm and plenty of parking! Service: I was greeted right away and they were very attentive.

    Prik King Moo Krob
    Amanda M.

    I think this is probably one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Vancouver/Portland Metro Area. They serve and make dishes that aren't commonly on Thai restaurant menus which I enjoy. I got the Prik King Moo Krob which is Thai red curry stir fried with green beans and they add crispy pork to it. This has some spice to it, I don't think it's that spicy. However, don't recommend it if someone has low spice tolerance unless spice level can be adjusted. The green beans were fresh, delicious with a nice crunch when eating it. It paired well with some peppers and the pork belly. Cause of the sauce the pork belly wasn't crispy but definitely flavorful. I do wish there was more rice for it, at the end I had leftover sauce. I could have asked for more rice I know. The portion size is enough for one meal. The staff got food out to me quickly after I ordered. The restaurant is modern and clean. There's decent amount of parking there too. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes.

    Pad See Ew  Steamed dumplings
    Mata S.

    Ordered pad se ew and dumplings, flavor was not very good. Pad se ew had a fishy taste and dumplings tasted like freezer dumplings. Overall the food just wasn't very good, very unimpressed and disappointed.

    Chili sauce
    Helen C.

    Where do I even begin. This place is overall quality!! The inside has a really nice ambiance as well, very relaxed. I omit certain ingredients due to my food sensitivities and they always make it perfect! I am very picky when it comes to a good Pad Thai and here is where I found it to be that authentic taste. I eat here at least twice a week and recently discovered their yummy chili sauce made in house that is now my new obsession They most certainly deserve more than 5 s Compliments to the chef!! Thank you

    Thai tea and salad rolls
    Samantha N.

    Salad rolls were huge!! She made them fresh. And I got a good amount of peanut sauce to go with! This place is a hidden gem with pool tables inside seems like a fun place to kick it with friends. As for the service 10/10.

    My Hot Basil dish was splendid
    John R.

    The good here is simply awesome... so crisp, clean and full of flavor.... Great presentation to boot! I highly recommend this restaurant... my fav is the hot basil w chicken

    Pure Wings
    Cindy R.

    Pure Thai Cafe provides delicious Thai food and good service. My husband and I asked for medium-hot spiciness for our dishes. We ordered Pure Wings. The wings were HUGE compared to other Thai restaurants. LOVED the dipping sauce! Reminds me of finadene (hot dipping sauce in Guam). Wings were hot and crispy. We enjoyed the Papaya Salad. We liked the tangy dressing, and lots of cherry tomatoes. We substituted brown rice (instead of Jasmine rice) for the Thai Fried Rice. We ordered it with pork. The portion was big, which we appreciated. Plenty to take home. The Pad Kee Mao was with beef. It was more tasty than the Pad Kee Mao we've had at other Thai restaurants. Prices are reasonable. Overall the food portions were larger than the other Thai restaurants we go to. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with location. Pure Thai is in Hazel Dell. The other Thai restaurants we go to, are in Felida, and in Salmon Creek. Pricier areas (re: rent). What would have made this review a 5-star rating, would have been authentic Thai background music. They were playing music by Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello (Señorita). A little odd in my opinion. I appreciate it more when ethnic restaurants play their country's native music. If you love Thai food, visit Pure Thai!

    the interior of the restaurant

    Pure Thai is a sure Thai for me from now on. This review is for take-out only but I would love to dine in next time as the store had a very calm and welcoming vibe. I called to put my order in and they stated 15 minutes and when we arrived the food was ready and the billing process was fast. We had Khao soi and Tom Kha and I can't fault a single thing with both those items . The soup was Rich creamy and beautifully balanced mix of lemongrass, galangal, mushroom, onion, lime leaves and Chicken .I got a medium spice for this one and found it perfect . The Khao Soi was equally delicious and came very well packaged, I regret spicing it down to mild and I would recommend the Medium for most people as I personally found the mild low on flavors. Pricing was reasonable and the food quantity was sufficient for the two of us .Its located in a shopping Centre so plenty of parking outside .

    Pad Thai
    Jennifer D.

    I love Thai food and usually get green curry which is what I got here. It was ok. My husband ordered the pad Thai and that was yummy so we switched meals. Spring rolls were ok. Service was great, brought everything out quick and were friendly. I love the ambiance and was surprised by the modern elegance.

    Came in after work for a quiet bite to eat with my husband. I've seen pictures of the food here so I wanted to come try it. The restaurant is located in Orchards, across from the Shari's and Fred Meyers. The parking lot is small and kinda tight. The staff was really nice and the restaurant was very clean, but small. We were seated right away when we arrived. The menu was pretty big so it took me awhile to decide what I wanted to try. The potstickers were okay. The minced chicken dish we ordered was good. We topped it with a fried egg. The crying tiger dish was alright, I think I expected more from it. The meat was overcooked but the marinade and the sauce it came with was good. I will definitely stop in again to try other dishes.

    I came here one day for dinner per recommendation with friends. Ordered the spicy garlic dumplings,…read morepad thai trio, pad krapow kai, red curry duck. The spicy garlic dumplings were delicious. Nice chili and garlic flavor with a hint of sweetness. Dumplings were good as well. The pad thai trio was my favorite overall. It's a pad thai with shrimp, chicken and beef. Good portion size and delicious. The pad krapow kai is ground chicken, with garlic, bell pepper, and thai basil, on a side of rice. I added two fried eggs to it. This was so flavorful, on its own without the rice is salty. However, with rice it's perfect with the fried egg. The red duck curry is a red curry with sliced boneless roasted duck, bamboo, broccoli, zucchini, bell pepper and thai basil. This is a good red curry, liked the duck and the vegetables in it. Went very well with rice. Overall, everything was delicious and will come back again. They also have a vegan menu for those who do not eat meat which I appreciate. I also noticed they do a lot of take out. The restaurant looks nice and clean, has decent parking.

There was a huge plant that was blocking the view to the counter in back. I shifted spots a few times to be sure they could see me. I was finally seated, and the kind gentleman pointed out the button on the table to press when I was ready. At first I was really excited to try this place out. Thai food is my favorite cuisine. The menu showed a lot of vegan options. They even had at least 3 vegan desserts and a vegan Thai iced tea. The server came back and took my drink order, I ordered the hot jasmine tea. It was a tea bag in hot water. I couldn't decide what to order. The fresh salad rolls with peanut sauce was not on the menu, but there were so many vegan items that I had a hard time deciding. Finally decided on the red curry. I was asked what spice level, at first I said medium. I was told that their spice tends to run pretty spicy. So I went with mild. I was told I could get chili oil if I needed to spice it up. I'm glad I went with mild, I didn't need the chili oil. The curry had enough flavor, but I felt like it was still lacking something. Since I was dining alone, I usually like to have a book or something to entertain myself. Lacking that, I had my phone with me. But it was an internet dead zone. I couldn't get on the Yelp app to check in. Couldn't play on my other apps. I asked if they had a WiFi code, and sadly they did not. After dinner, I shamefully went to the nearby Barnes and Noble to borrow their WiFi to check in. I'm not in the area very often, but the food didn't wow me enough to want to go back and try it again.

I've honestly had fresher oysters in Idaho. We also ordered the seafood sampler, so we got to try a good portion of what they had available from the market, and nothing really stood out. The view, service, and drinks are what keep this at 4 stars for me. If you took those away and judged it only on the seafood for the price, I'd probably be closer to 2/5.
