OMG. Our son goes to OSU, and we were waiting for him to get out of class and had lunch at Tarntip. It was about 1pm on a Friday and it was packed. I am Thai, and was thrilled it was actually Thai owned. The food reminded me of home! We had pork belly stir fry with basil, I had to try the traditional pad thai which tasted like Bangkok Street food! Delicious. Rich and flavorful not too sweet. We had thier home made coconut ice cream topped with slightly salted peanuts, and the owner gifted us a creamy Thai iced tea. Aroy mak mak na ca Khun Nok ka! Rich, spot on Thai food with true traditional Thai flavors. This is our new favorite! And we live in Eugene! Love Raven and Matteo read more

I have been to Corvallis a handful of times and finally discovered a cozy place with yummy food. Workers were kind and always trying to refill our water. We ordered pad kee mao, eggplant with pork, yellow curry, and Thai grilled chicken. My favorite was the eggplant with fried pork belly. I like my Thai eggplant dishes to have a good sweetness and the pork belly being crunchy was the perfect combination. I dream about it sometimes and will go back when I'm in town. Everything else was also good! I don't think you would be disappointed with whatever you try. read more

CASH ONLY. Fast Service. Most entrees are $15-$18 each. Food is clean, simply prepared. Excellent choice for vegetarians and/or just want some healthy eats. Each entree was vegetable forward which I appreciated because the vegetables are good all on their own. No mushy vegetables here :D I highly recommend anything with their peanut sauce. The fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce was tasty and I appreciated the fresh basil that is often skipped by other places; this place tastes authentic. The shrimp wrapped in a wonton wrapper (deep fried); it tasted exactly like it sounds; not special. The yellow curry was balanced with a bit of sweetness and just a hint of spice, but not at all spicy. One of the meat eaters commented on the "tiny portion" of protein what came with their entree. This place is perfect for fresh, vegetable focused Thai dishes. I highly recommend giving it a try :) read more

This was such a gem! Wonderful service and amazing food!! I highly recommend! We had Cashew chicken, Paht Prig King and wonton soup. Everything was delicious! read more

Love this place!! Service is kind and funny. Food is the best. My brother taught me a long time ago to always try any dish that has the restaurants name in it when you go for the first time. So we had the chicken Pad Thai (they spell it correctly on the menu) and the Tarntip eggplant dish and it was the BEST!! They were very busy for lunch and we had to go to the counter to order but it came out fast and so worth it. Parking is a bit of a challenge but again worth it. read more

Super friendly service and best crispy basil duck we've ever had anywhere! It's ridiculously mouthwateringly good! Try it!

First time visiting this town and this is by far the best Thai food I have ever had. The Thai tea was delicious as well! Service and staff were exceptional and so sweet. If I come back to visit, this will definitely be my first stop. read more

Curry was overly sweetened and waitress was careless. This was my first time here and not going back. I was sat at a table in a corner having no choice but to face the wall while I ate. There were plenty of open tables and a young man that came in after me was sat at a table in the middle of the room- he was also eating alone. Waitress did not ask me whether I wanted my curry mild medium or hot. I had to stop her from walking away and say "please make my curry very spicy." She giggled upon hearing this. Curry arrived and seemed to be sweetened with an entire cup of processed sugar just for my one serving and was very very mild. Waitress of course never returned once to check on me. I do not leave bad reviews for restaurants but this experience was exceptionally sad and bad on many levels. read more

This was the best pad thai I have ever had! the restaurant is so beautiful and everyone was so kind. we had an amazing experience and we will be sure to come back as soon as we can! read more

I was in town for a few days and wanted some Thai food and found this place. I saw some reviews and checked it out. I got the chicken Phat Thai which was good but my dish was a bit salty. I really liked the server and the person running the front of the house as they were very nice and welcoming and attended to all of our needs. I would go here again and maybe try to order a different dish but overall a great experience. read more

Tarntip Thai Cuisine - Chicken Phat Thai - Thai Near Me - Corvallis, Oregon

I've been dining here for nearly 30 years. I stopped in for lunch the other day, for the first time in several years (pandemic...). Food quality and service have both gone downhill. I stood in line (no table service) to order what used to be one of my old faves, the red curry with bamboo shoots. It tasted like it was made with "light" coconut milk with a bit of water added--nothing like the slippery, silky, richness that I remember. The rice was soggy and devoid of that lively jasmine rice fragrance. If you order water with your meal you are handed a bottle with Costco branding. Yeah, I know it is hard to hire a dishwasher, but come on... On the bright side, at least we got to eat our lunch off of a plate rather than from a to-go box. All in all, lunch was pretty lame, no better than any of the other lame Thai restaurants in Corvallis. I can't imagine that the fatherly patron who used to rule this place would be proud of what it has become. I probably won't be back. read more

Lovely little joint for a quick lunch or button-popping feast. Have tried their pad thai, pad see ew and a few of the curries and been thoroughly satisfied every time. Service is top-notch too - they're quick, friendly and have thrown in some free spring rolls or sweet rices on the side before too. Note - not sure if they do dine-in but I've only ever gotten take-out. read more

How is it that the food taste the same since my days in college, 2 decades ago? So simple, tasty and familiar. I agree it's one of the best Thai restaurants in Oregon. read more

So good! Spice was perfect, exactly what I wanted! Staff were so nice and inviting. Got the pad Thai and crab Rangoon was wonderfully crisp!

Food is great here. Staff are very sweet too. They were very accommodating for me & my baby.

Food was great, but I was absolutely blown away by the service. I've never been treated better by an entire staff at any restaurant. They were incredibly attentive, sweet, and efficient, even for our big party. They even noticed us singing happy birthday for our friend and brought out a free dessert unprompted. So impressed!! Keep it up :) read more

I absolutely love this place! The service is always so fantastic and their food is delicious!! Highly recommend the chicken pad tai.

Although the staff is small, they are fast and professional. The food is good and they ensure that the spiciness is acceptable for the customer. Limited parking. read more

Ok, tried Tarntip again today, crispy chicken is good!! The place gets busy around dinner time so call for takeout at least a half hour or so before you want to eat! It is worth the wait! read more

I was in town for the night and wanted Thai food. I found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try. I found the service to be great and the food likewise exceeded my expectations. read more

It was pretty busy when we went in, the food was great but they had to use to-go containers even though we dined in. Probably has to do with left over covid policies. The guy who took our order was very nice, I imagine he owned the place, how he cared a lot. I didn't take a photo of my food because it didn't look great on a paper plate, but it did taste wonderful. I'd come back if I lived in Oregon but I'm way up in seattle. read more

Only had their Takeout but the Yellow Curry and Fried Rice are excellent. We also love their Chicken skewer Appetizers because we could drink that Peanut Sauce. read more

Corvallis doesn't have many good options when it comes to restaurants but this place is delicious! One of the few places I really enjoy. I got number 79, the Kao Soi with shrimp. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They let us stay passed closing time to finish our food as well. The restaurant itself was pretty cute too. Definitely recommend going here! read more

The food was delicious. Clearly made with care. Came out in the right amount of time. They were short staffed because of travel but still so kind and attentive. Not too loud considering the amount of people and the decor was lovely. We will definitely come back. read more

I remember the Tarntip restaurant in Corvallis. I went here for my first date with my now wife, back on Labor Day, 1991. Wow, that was 32 years ago. Just came out of high school, we were poor, young undergraduate students at OSU, so going there was a treat. Our go-to dish back then was Chicken Popeye's Delight. Something special about that dish. I've tried all of these years to remake it and it is just never the same. Best wishes to TarnTip, hope one day, we will be able to come again. Glad that they still have that simple dish on the Menu. read more

Our favorite Thai restaurant in Corvallis. Food is delicious and fresh, amazing flavors, friendly staff! Everything we tried on the menu has been superb, can't wait to go again. read more

Hands down the best Thai food in Corvallis, and has been consistently the best for years! The green curry is my favorite comfort dish! I've never had anything at Tarntip that was not perfectly flavorful. I love the coconut ice cream, with fried bananas too! read more

Tarntip Thai has long been a local favorite in Corvallis, and my husband and I have been coming here off and on for the last 15 years or so. We just came back yesterday and I'm happy to report their amazing food hasn't changed, its still the same great place with the same great owners making the same great food! I would say Tarntip has the best red curry I have ever had...its got such great flavor!! Not too spicy, not too sweet, just perfectly flavored curry! Their other curries are also amazing, I have had a few of their others over the years as well. Also they have some of the best Thai iced tea I have ever had also...once again, perfectly flavored, not too tart, not too sweet, just perfect! A great thing about Tarntip is that they also have lunch specials, two specials per day. Usually its one regular dish, like a sweet and sour dish or something, and one curry dish. We always end up getting whatever is on special, since all their curries are absolutely heavenly. I believe their lunch specials are now $8. Their portion size is perfect also, a good amount of food but not too much so you can't move afterwards! The service here is also good, they get you in, seated, take your order, and get your food to you in a timely manner. The people we saw working yesterday were the same people we saw there 10 years ago, which was good to see! They are all very cordial and pleasant. Usually the place gets really busy during lunch also so they turn tables pretty quickly, and even though the place is on the small side, it has a good amount of tables and can accommodate a lot of diners. ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: TARNTIP IS CASH ONLY!!! One Yelper gave them a low score for this...really?? So what, just bring cash, its not like you're buying a new car....$10-$15 cash isn't a huge amount and shouldn't be a big deal...but it is something to know before you go! I absolutely love Tarntip Thai and I'm happy to report they have withstood the test of time. I hope to visit them in another 10 years and find the same amazing wonderfully tasty curry and Thai iced tea that we had yesterday! read more

Tarntip is amazing. I come here frequently because it is so good. The soup flavor is so good. The Pad See Ew has great flavor - my kids will eat this and they claim to not like Thai food. We often get Siam noodles or a mixed vegetable dish as well. So many good things! The fresh rolls are very good, and I like the chicken satay. We get take out and sometimes even delivery! If you aren't sure, just give them a try. It's worth it! read more

Update: I've tried this before, but got to take pictures today of my to go order! I love the coconut ice cream (and so does my dog)! The poppers come in an appetizer size of 3 and you can choose either a more savory one (curry) or a sweet one. Pictured is what I order, which is usually with extra noodles and broccoli. My boyfriend and I usually do one to go order like this and it can feed us for an entire day or two! This place is still my favorite spot to go to, and it seems like many other people's favorite place as well for Thai food. The atmosphere is welcoming and the way they handle to-go orders is professional and efficient. They are very busy especially during peak hours of the day, but they are appreciative of every single person that walks through their door. The owner loves to share his cuisine and food with others; it's as if he shares a piece of himself with every food he has on the menu. The owner loves to make food, and has shared a delicious appetizer with me the other day. The curry poppers have a soft texture on the outside just like a croissant and a sweet potato, curry mix on the inside accompanied with some pickled vegetables. It is a great appetizer and I will always be returning for more food here. If you've lived in Corvallis for a while and haven't tried this spot, give it a try! You will not regret it because I always crave their food, especially the Siam noodles and Pad Thai! read more

This is the best most authentic Thai restaurant I have ever been to. I don't know why Anthony Bourdain hasn't come to Corvallis before but there are a lot of great local restaurants her with extremely authentic taste that you can't find anywhere else. I highly recommend you come here and get their special crispy chicken and Tom yum soup. I went to college here almost 10 years ago and still come back every now and then to get my Thai food fix. read more

Great flavors- Ordered Pad Thai and Pad See Ew without fish sauces. They also have delicious gluten free peanut sauce!

I come here for the Pad Thai. It is out of this world amazing, it's sweet and not over powered by peanut flavor which is why I love it so much! Noodles are cooked to perfection and topped with fresh cabbage. Another one of my favorites is the yellow curry with potatoes, onions, carrots, and I order it with tofu. I do not recommend ordering the pot stickers, they are yummy don't get me wrong but you can honestly make better ones at home. Not worth paying for! They are steamed and not cooked on the pan so they are just very ehhh As for drinks the Thai iced tea is my favorite! Very authentic:) read more

Loved this place! I usually get green curry for its mild spice and flavor but tried red since the photos of red looked amazing here. While asking for mild spice on my red curry still made me almost cry, the flavor was amazing and Im willing to admit I think I have incredibly weak spice tolerance so that's probably my fault. Like I said, I could definitely tell the flavor was awesome. My bf got panang curry and it was equally good (he agreed and i tasted;) It was the first time I finally got him to try curry since I love it so much and im glad this was his first! He fell in love! Thanks for still serving takeout during this tough time of social distancing Tarnip. Sadly had to knock my review down. Sucky feeling getting home starving and seeing your green curry that you specifically requested as mild as humanly possible is actually almost red w spicy flakes and upon tasting makes you choke. Yea im a wimp but this stuff made my level 10 spice ordering roommate cry. Also took 50 minutes (estimated 35.. already a bit long). Sad night for me:( read more

When looking for Thai food in Corvallis there are options. This is one of the stronger options but I would love to see more work put into the actually restaurant itself. The food is good, the service is fairly good as well. But the ambience of the restaurant just doesn't feel up to the standards of both their food and their service. I think this restaurant is great for takeout and has potential to be a great dine in restaurant given they put some more effort into the space itself. read more

Staff was friendly but the food was disappointing. We got crab Rangoons, Massuman curry and pad see ew. Rangoons were soggy and the filling was off- flavor and texture wise. Pad see ew was seriously lacking in flavor, very bland. Curry was okay but not super impressed. Had high hopes for this place based on prior reviews but was pretty disappointed. read more
