    Pad Thai, dry, stale, and the chicken was like jerky it so so overcooked it crumbled.
    John O.

    I've ordered here several times the past. Always was great food, but overpriced (are noodles, sauce and a TINY bit of chicken worth $30?). This time it was $78 for two Pad Thais, some curry sauce and some lettuce roles for delivery. It was stale, noodles, dry chicken and gritty something... Absolutely awful. I received a partial refund because the Pad Thai wasn't edible. I absolutely CANNOT go there to pickup because the wait staff is rude and surely. So I end up using Uber Eats but never again. And I have been going there and ordering take out since 2017. DONE!

    Eggplant tofu
    Dan D.

    Really flavorful and textured eats, presented with pride by a wait staff that's confident. My family dined in on Christmas Day. I wish they had set up some portable heaters, or avoided seating us by the constantly opening front door, which let in cold air every time. There were only 2-3 occupied tables, so there were open tables by the kitchen. I would say the food was tasty, but a little out of balance. The Thai iced tea was too sweet; my lemongrass chicken was strongly flavored and needed herbaciousness. That said, all the proteins were cooked right, and well salted (but short of saltiness).

    Mango Fried Rice
    Peter M.

    Came here for the first time visiting Seattle with a family member who used to come here frequently. We tried Potstickers, Mango Fried Rice and Chicken Pad Thai. Potstickers: Came five to an order on a square plate with lettuce garnish and a small amount of soy sauce for dipping. They were OK, but nothing you couldn't also get from HMart. 3/5 Mango Fried Rice: Outstanding, good amount of shrimp in a tasty sauce with egg, mango, peas, carrots, cashews, and a few other things. Big portion, we had leftovers. 5/5 Chicken Pad Thai: Big dish with large chunks of chicken. 4/5 Dining experience: Greeted promptly and sat near the kitchen. Not too noisy. Friendly wait staff. Appetizer was fairly quick. Payment was also quick once done. Huge menu, just be aware entree dishes do not come with rice or noodles, those must be ordered on the side. Parking: Easy in a shared lot near Starbucks and Bartell Drugs. Return: Yes, we would.

    Fried spring rolls
    Jiaxin G.

    Food is good here, I like how my pad kee mao 有鑊氣, like I can taste the wok and flame in it. Even the broccoli absorbed the sauces and tasted so good. The flavorful noodles were soft and glutinous. It was savory with a tiny hint of spiciness, and the basils brought an extra fragrant to the dish. One thing I can think of to complain is that the beef was a bit over cooked and kind of chewy and dry. Other than that, it was a perfect pad kee mao. My partner ordered the pad Thai with extra egg because he's vegetarian and he didn't feel like to have tofu again. Pad Thai was good as we expected. I used to love pad Thai but now they seem a bit sweet to me so I go for pad kee mao/pad see ew/ba me hang. Fried spring rolls were also tasty. It was dense, stuffed with shredded cabbage and carrots, it was a good appetizer and snack. I like how they put some black pepper in the stuffing, it made the spring rolls tasted good even without dipping sauce. The staffs were friendly as well. It was a cute restaurant that I'd come in to enjoy a simple but delicious meal at weekends.

    Food is consistently good, as well as service! The place is well maintained, clean, and comfortable. Lamb parang, pork belly, and chicken padthai...deliciously scrumptious.

    Yellow Curry

    Pad see ew was "ok" according to gf and my yellow curry noodle was abhorrent. Curry consistency was that of saliva and the color was doo doo brown. Ive had yellow curry from several different thai places and its never looked or tasted like it does here. Most disappointing was the chicken. Gf got thin cuts in her pad see ew but i got chicken giblets. Little chicken giblets. Which means... if i wanted to absorb all the protein from my 17.95 dollar meal, i gotta slurp down a bowl full of soggy noodles sitting in spit-adjacent brown goo because the giblets are too small to pick out. Never ordering from here again

    Ocean Pot
    Jessica S.

    My coworkers always order food from here, and I personally never really tried their food besides sampling off theirs (eheheh). Each time I've tried the food, they were reallly goood. But maybe it's because it was food that wasn't mine? LOL. But I finally got a full taste of one of their entrees during one work shift! The location that we go to is located across of Bartell Drugs and next to Starbucks at the back of the Gateway Plaza in Shoreline. There's a huge parking lot with ample parking. I got their Khao Soi with chicken, one of the street food dishes. It was a curry noodle dish which was more of a stew than a soup. But it also wasn't fully a curry. A hybrid of the two. The portions were HUGE. Sooo much food in the one plate. And the price wasn't too bad at all! The food was good! There was a lot of vegetables and protein that I thought there wasn't enough of the noodles LOL. Something that doesn't bother me as the curry helped supplement as the "base" with the noodles. It was a tad watery and the flavor was lacking a bit but overall great for the price and portions! I've tried many other things such as their Pad Thai, Ocean Pot, and Thai Basil Beef Salad from my coworkers, and they were all delicious! Especially the Ocean Pot. Super unique and almost like a seafood bake but not really. I definitely would be getting this next time! The restaurant has a VERY extensive menu and could get very overwhelming with all the different choices. The food is pretty good with HUGE portions that could be two meals rather than just one. Definitely would love to try their other dishes!

    Rama tofu with brown rice and pad Thai. So good!
    Teresita C.

    Came on a Saturday after discovering that the restaurant is in this strip mall, hidden around the corner next to Starbucks. The friend I was meeting had been coming for years and she knew just what to order. I order the Rama combo with tofu, which does not ordinarily come with tofu but with chicken. They kindly agreed to make the substitute, because it wasn't very busy at the hour we were here. The combo came with brown rice, Pad Thai, and tofu Rama. The peanut sauce was terrific and the portions were great. It was a wonderful meal that also came with a little cup of soup, a few veggies and bits of tofu but vegetarians beware, it does have chicken. Service was friendly and competent and the restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere.

    Rice noodles with broccoli and peanut sauce. Had it with fried tofu!

Started off with some VERY crispy wings, topped with fried shallots and garlic, could use a stronger flavor on the wing itself, but goes great with the sweet chili sauce and "secret" plum sauce, squeeze that lemon on there too!

The curry itself was so rich, aromatic and savory. I also got the Cashew Chicken wok stir fry, love the subtle wok flavor with the mildy sweet and umami/soy flavor of the sauce. The veggies with a nice crisp and chicken goes perfect. They do spice level 1-5 and I chose 3, perfect amount of spice, not overpowering and you still get the nice kick! The service was great, my server was very attentive, helpful with the menu, and friendly. The lady at the register is so nice and was explaining to me some of the popular dishes. You can tell these two love what they do. Some of the better Thai food I've had, hearty, clean and flavorful, I WILL BE BACK! Ps: ask for the spices, and add it to everything, so bomb.

I thought it was going to be sweet but was so pleasantly surprised it wasn't. Lots of yummy goodness. They make the noodles in house and I can tell because the cuts were uneven.

I would have preferred the noodles to be a bit chewier but I also know how tedious it is to make fresh if they're doing all of that per bowl.

I usually pass on pho restaurants that don't serve tripe and tendon. I was at best average but honestly not near the best I've ever had in the US or Vietnam. At almost $20 for a bowl I wasn't impressed enough to say "let's go back". My wife ordered the pork vermicelli bowl (her usual). She liked it ok and I tried a bit.

Overall if you are comfortable parking in a tight little parking lot to eat average food in a little old building it's not a bad choice. But I would not purposefully go back even though we shop often at Costco and Home Depot nearby.
