I ordered take out and it was the biggest disappointment of the week. They make all of their food as cheaply as possible; their curry was watery, their vegetables come from a bag or a freezer and taste like plastic, they only gave us one serving of rice total for two orders of curry, and they use spinach in their food instead of basil. Definitely not worth your money, there are tons of better Thai places not too far away. read more

I am a Pad See Ew conisseur, and many have been too salty, overly sauced, or too sweet with lifeless broccoli and chicken that tastes like cardboard. However, this place is tied for first with my other favorite Thai spot - Rice Thai Cookery in Milwaukie - for the absolute best Pad See Ew, hands down. The pot stickers, chicken won tons with sweet & sour chili dipping sauce, and sweet sticky rice were also fabulous. I've been here everyday for the last week in a row and frankly, I see no reason to stop lol :-) read more

Pretty good but not great Thai food. Fast service and friendly staff. I order the pineapple fried rice.

My first "favorite Thai place" in Portland. The staff is friendly, the food is great, the atmosphere is pretty basic casual and comfortable. I haven't ventured away from the drunken noodles yet (they're so good!!) but I'm sure everything else is equally great. If you're in NoPo, you've got to check it out! read more

We eat here nearly every time we're in Portland. Their massaman curry and pineapple fried rice is amazing!

The food is delicious. The service is good, fast, and quality. This is my go-to restaurant when I want Thai food.

Pros: Good thai food for NoPo. Good portion size. Pad Khee Mao is tasty. If you order spicy it actually really is spicy! Friendly service. Cons: Wish they would use the really wide, thick rice noodles for dishes like Pad See Ew / Pad Khee Mao but they don't (more like a medium wide/medium thick noodle). Bottom line: Good overall Thai joint. Good lunch/Take-out option especially if you live in the area! read more

Review your order before you leave. I placed a simple order for Golden Shrimp to go. When I got home it was coconut shrimp (and not fresh). This doesn't seem like a big deal but there has been a huge decline in service and food quality for years. The food has become inconsistent in taste and quality and there are way to many issues with wrong orders. We have been going there for probably close to 20 years. We have now crossed Thai Ginger off our list as our go-to Thai place. read more

It's a decent lunch take out place, with prices under 7 bucks for a number of specials. That said, the noodle dishes are often a bit greasy and the seafood and tofu often chewy and overcooked. I'm also thoroughly underwhelmed by what they consider "very spicy" and considering I grew up on macaroni and hamburger helper, you should be too. read more

I get take out from here often and you should too! I would put this somewhere between Americanized bucket of Thai and authentic/trendy places like Pok Pok. Prices and portion sizes are about right for the quality. Some of my favorites are: pad gai, any of the fried rices, pumpkin curry, tom kha with shrimp, and pad see ew. The curries tend to be saucy so order extra rice. You'll have lunch for a day or two. This place is above par and North Portlanders are lucky to have it in the neighborhood. read more

Best Tom Yum soup in Portland.

My favorite Thai place, I love it so much I wish they'd open several more locations. Employee owed (so I hear anyway) and you get your food in 10 minutes! I wish they would replace E-San in Kenton...I would eat there every night! read more

Love this place! Food is fast and fresh. Been coming here for years with coworkers. Slight rise in prices but quality has remained high so I don't mind paying. Highly recommended! Stir fry, pot stickers, fried rice, pad see ew, I can go on and on. read more

I picked up some chicken Tom Kha Gai soup tonight and it was the perfect thing for my rotten head cold. The flavor of the broth was an excellent blend of lemon grass, cilantro, fish sauce, coconut milk and chilies. I felt so much better after eating it! This soup will be my new go to for rainy soggy weather and sick days. read more

Decent Thai food in NoPo. The restaurant location is nothing to write home about - nondescript strip mall location with poorly disguised fluorescent lights. The food is much more to talk about. It's good for a decent, quick takeout meal. Their Mussuman Curry is decent, and their Pad Kee Mao is good. read more

Such a tasty surprise! After picking up my dog whom a friend of mine was dog sitting in the area, I asked for dinner recommendations to get on the way home. My friend recommended Thai Ginger and I ordered the pan friend chow mien and pas Thai for my husband. The restaurant is conveniently located on rosa parks - but looks can deceive. It's situated in a sort of three space strip mall that may seem less than ideal, but once inside - the place is so cute and atmosphere warm and friendly. The restaurant was packed which is always a good sign! They quoted a 15 min wait for pick up but I arrived early and it was already ready. Drove the food home to Beaverton and my husband and I dug in. And I mean dug in! The food was delicious, flavorful, healthy with large portions for the price. I hate to admit I'm rarely in the area - but when I am - I will definitely be returning! read more

The food is always good and the staff is always very friendly! The restaurant itself is also very clean and comfortable. Love this place!

Love their Noodle Soup (#32 I think) It's like if yellow curry had a Pho soup baby with noodles instead of rice. Really good. :)

I love this place. My kids love this place. My very picky about Thai food, this place rocks! The pad Thai is off the hook. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. I ordered it spicy. Also Tom Kah soup was wonderful my favorite. We all love the salad rolls. Thai ice tea, yes please! Everyone that works there is super friendly. You do have to look for yourself for the specials of the day. That would be my only tip for better service. The severs forget to offer the specials. Oh.. I'm not sure if I spelled the food names right. read more

The last time I went to this restaurant was when I was a freshman at UP. Since then, the quality of the food has gone downhill. I ordered pad thai for takeout. As soon as I opened the box, the food was cold and coagulated. The portion size has also decreased. As an alternative, I would recommend Thai Cottage in St John's. read more

17April16 @ noon. not busy. not noisy. pumpkin curry and garlic shrimp. both dishes were good. the garlic shrimp was especially tasty and had TWELVE shrimp which is unheard of. nice portions that allowed for leftovers. read more

This has been a "go-to" takeout place for us for many years now. Although they can occasionally have a bad night (bland, not fresh) the food is typically fairly solid and flavorful. I have tried a few things on the menu with success, but typically stick with the Pad-Thai with Tofu. Large portions and some of the nicest staff. read more

I got takeout and ordered the Pork Larb and the Tom Kha with chicken. Both were ok, the soup wasn't very thick and creamy and the Larb mostly tasted of fish sauce. I was told that this place is also owned by Tom Yum off of Woodstock in SE (which is my favorite), so I was disappointed when the food wasn't as good. read more

I cannot give Thai Ginger enough stars. My husband and I went here at least once a week during college. I just wish I still lived in Portland! Their Pad Thai is the best I've ever had. Seriously, I compare all other pad thais to theirs. The thai iced teas are so refreshing! Their other dishes are good too, but try the pad thai, you won't be sorry! Also, the staff is so nice! read more

I love this place!!! My family goes there often and I love the food choices and how it is close to home. The food is delicious and I can eat food that I like as much as I want. I am always satisfied afterwards read more

Best Thai food I've ever had. No lie, the food is impeccable. Their pad Thai has the most flavor in it I've ever tries. They also have a peanut curry which is unbelievable. Very friendly wait staff which goes a long way for me. read more

Tasty Thai food. Quick service even though restaurant is full. Service is also great, they will give any amount of extra garlic when you ask, which is important for us. Recommend this place even though it is out of the way read more

Staff is always friendly and always busy lunch crowd. I alway had either pad Thai or pad Prik king. Love both.

I enjoy this place. I Love the pad thai!!!

Recommended to us by U of P Admin while on a visit and it was great. Spring rolls where crisp and fresh, and the Thai pumpkin curry was wonderful with hot nice spice. Perfect iced Thai coffee. read more

Went here with some friends a while back and all I can say is that its pretty average thai food for me. Don't get my wrong the food was good, but nothing really stood out to me. Portions were smaller than I thought they would be too. I've had better. read more

Very nice little Thai place. Incredibly friendly staff and the food I've tried the couple times I've been there is solid. Really delicious spring and veggie rolls and Pad See Ew is also quite good. It's not the greatest Thai I've ever had taste-wise, but for the price I'm all for it. A good stop when I'm up in North Portland. read more

Vegan dishes galore! Curry's are perfectly spiced - I'd suggest Massuman or Pineapple red curry. The Pad Thai Woon Sen is amazing as well. We get this food to go but the dining area is usually pretty quiet and relaxed. Service is very friendly and polite. This one's on my top 5 best Thai in Portland. read more

Meh. Perfectly serviceable Thai, but nothing special. String beans are long and uncut, so unwieldy to eat. The shrimp and calamari are barely passable. Also note that salad rolls do not come with peanut sauce-- it's a sweet/sour sauce instead-- which was disappointing, as the peanut sauce is the whole point for me. read more

My friend just came back from New Zealand, so we decided to have lunch somewhere nearby. Thai Ginger has never failed me in the past, so we decided to go here again. The restaurant itself is pretty tiny, so depending on when you go, you might have to wait a few minutes for a table. The parking lot is also pretty small so you might have to find parking in the neighborhood. The food here is amazing! I had the Pad Kee Mao that day, which had wide size rice noodles with egg, hot basil leaves, tomatoes, broccoli, ground chili, and bell peppers. You can make it vegetarian or choose from tofu, chicken, pork, or beef for the same price. They also have shrimp or squid for a bit more, or a seafood combo if you want both. If you like tofu, I highly recommend it! The texture was soft and squishy, just how I like it, not rubbery like how some places make it. The waiters are quick and friendly and water refills happen more than once. The only thing bad I have to say about my Pad Kee Mao is that it didn't have as many noodles as I would've liked. It instead had a lot of tofu, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Not really complaining though, because it was delicious all the same! If you're not sure about the Pad Kee Mao, I can say from experience that you can never go wrong with the Pad Thai! Some of my other favorites include the Gaeng Pa Nang Curry and the Pineapple Cashew Fried Rice. Grab a Thai iced tea and your meal is complete! Oh yeah, they have sweet little to-go containers if you SOMEHOW can't finish your meal. Man, I just got hungry.. read more

I hate to give a poor rating, so I only do when I feel it's not worth going back. The environment is bland, which doesn't matter much to me. The service wasn't too friendly but helpful nonetheless. The food itself was good, nothing better than average thai if you ask me. But the problem was that there was some sort of electrical buzz that was so painfully loud it made it impossible to enjoy myself. The staff didn't say one word about it, nor did it seem to bother them, which indicated to me that it was something common for this place. I won't be going back simply because I can get just as good of food with a much better experience elsewhere. read more

It was okay. I've had better. I've had worse. The price was good.

Love this little place. It's small but the food is delish! Pad thai, fried rice, curries - all soooo good. There's a few good eats in Portland, and this is one of them. read more

The food was bland, but spicy. It was like they were trying to make up for lack of flavor by making everything so spicy it was almost inedible. read more

Less than a mile away. Provides decent Thai food and fast. Done take out and dine in and have always encountered friendly staff. Reasonable prices as well...$9.95 seems to be the going rate for most dishes. Also you can specify spiciness. Yay! read more
