Thai Siam serves up some of the most authentic and delicious Thai cuisine in Seattle. Beyond the amazing flavors, the staff is exceptionally warm and welcoming--it's easily a local favorite read more

Stopped in for a quick dinner. They have a parking lot which is nice but note their parking curbs are much higher than normal. The inside is decorated so nicely! Feels like a homey spot and service is great. We ordered the spring rolls, which in general tasted fine but were lacking filling. They were cute mini ones! I ordered the pad see-ew which is served with American broccoli. It was delicious and not too spicy. My boyfriend got the fried rice and it was so good he finished the massive serving. The best part about this place is that they give back to the community! They have signs at each table showing how much money they've raised for charities over the years and one offering a Christmas meal to those who cannot afford one. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Was craving Thai food for lunch so after searching I ended up choosing this spot. I ordered my usual go-to Pad Thai and I can say it was ok. It was pretty pricey for the portion and I only got 2 small pieces of tofu. Quite disappointed with the flavors as I was expecting a bit more from it based on the price. read more

Slightly more expensive than average but everything was "good". We ordered the duck curry, pad thai, fried fish, and something else j forgot. Service was quite slow during a takeout rush. My pet peeve is when Thai places charge extra for rice with curry... read more

Our local Thai spot and always so reliable. Service is warm and the ambiance is super warm and cozy inside. Food always takes a little bit, which I like - made to order. Oh also, be warned, their spice 3 star is crazy hot, at least a couple notches more than any other Thai place I've been too. I'm a spice fiend, I have 5 or 6 ghost pepper sauces in my fridge at all times, and even their 3 star is a touch on the hot side for me. Prices and portions are excellent! Parking is easy - a few spots in the lot (it is quite tight) or there's usually plenty of spots on 15th or 83rd in the neighborhood. read more

Thai Siam Restaurant - Phad See-Ew - Thai Near Me - Seattle, Washington

"I honestly don't understand how this place isn't overflowing with 5-star reviews. The food is absolutely delicious, the service is excellent, it's clean, and the atmosphere is pleasant. I stopped in for lunch on a recommendation from a kind stranger, and it was a revelation. I ordered the 'Bird of Paradise' since I love duck and Thai basil, the flavors were unique and incredible. I'd never had lychee in a savory dish before, but it was the perfect match for the creamy, balanced curry. It's easily one of the best I've ever had! Even the Thai coffee was spot on. Please support this business. I also learned they provide free meals to the homeless during Christmas. I'll definitely be back every time I'm in Seattle! Best part they are right across from Safeway and EV charging stations read more

So delicious ! Got chicken Phad Thai to for carry out but my goodness, will be back for in house service because it was so good and their customer service was top notch. So cozy and welcoming inside and it smells amazing from the moment you walk in. So happy to have found a cozy , delicious, reasonably priced spot, and with parking and amazing customer service? Amazing 10/10 read more

Thai Siam Restaurant - Chicken Siam Phad Thai - Thai Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Cute neighborhood spot in north Ballard with lovely decor and super friendly staff! Huge shoutout to the owners for giving back to the community and providing meals for the less fortunate during the winter holidays. That said, the food was ok but not great. The crispy garlic basil chicken was very dry - either over-fried or the chicken was really old. It also had no garlic flavor to it and basically just tasted like dry chicken soaked in honey. The pad thai was fine but nothing special (you could get similar quality and greater quantity for less elsewhere). The papaya salad was the standout of the meal - crunchy, sweet, and savory with plenty of peanuts. Overall, I probably wouldn't go back for the food but I appreciate what they do for the community so I'm adding an additional star. read more

I think there could've been other good things on this menu but reading the description of this dish enticed me. I like the duck but not the other ingredients like pineapple or the lychee and the ratio was off with not so much duck, given that it was around $23. Service was really fast since we ate when there was 30 minutes so shoutout to the amazing servers and chef!! I like the small restaurant and would probably get something different! read more

Smallest amount of food for largest amount of money I've received in all of Seattle. They offered me to come back to get more, but I'm already home... Does the photo look like $28 worth of food to you? Sure doesn't to me. read more

So glad this place was saved by the community! Best gang gai in Seattle and their housemate coconut ice cream w toasted peanuts is a not to be missed final palette cleanser! Lovely people! read more

Thai Siam was the first Thai restaurant my friends took me to and after trying so many in the last five years, still this is my #1 favorite Thai restaurant!! The Siam Phad Thai is a large order and so much better than any others, as it is not overspiced, and it is so light yet so tasty!! I loved their soups beyond words as they are huge quantities, and the Tom Kah Mushroom soup is a favorite with lots of fresh veggies and herbs on the side, bean sprouts, and yummy fresh coconut milk. I love alot of their veggie dishes but for those that do eat seafood and meats which I do not eat, they have lots of shrimp and full seafood dishes. I find this a great atmosphere and they remember their patron friends. They are very clean, super nice, and give extra kindness and not overpriced and they are super fast for eating in or to go/delivery. read more

Came here for dinner and got the pad see ew and fried rolls. The pad see ew was pretty good and the noodles were flavorful and sauce went well with everything. The fried rolls were just okay, not super special. Was pretty busy though when I came and there's usually a wait. read more

This will be my third time eating here this month. I love the food, I love the staff and I especially love the atmosphere. This is a neighborhood favorite and I am grateful to have access to such wonderful food so close to home. read more

My review is based solely on the "Pick up" experience. We ordered the Chicken Red Curry and Basil Lover. Both were average--neither great nor terrible. The "4-star hot" level was not spicy at all. The portion of the red curry was smaller, but the basil portion was just right. Overall, it was an average experience. Would I order it again? Probably not. read more

Food is amazing!!! We go as often as we can. Best Thai food around. We were sick when they closed but so happy they were able to open back up. Every one I've spoken to, raves about the food. read more

I was so happy when I found this place while looking for dinner. It was so good that I came twice during my 3 day stay here in Seattle. The pad thai was amazing as it was sweet, sour, saucy and the noodles were chewy. I got the pad Thai both times. The pad see ew was good too and definitely something I would try again. Everything else we ordered from the menu was still out of the world with flavor and the portions were big. If I'm ever back in the Seattle area, I will definitely come back! read more

It was one hit and one miss tonight. Angel chicken appetizer was yum! Shrimp fried rice had big chunks of almost raw onion. Was way oversalted. Disappointing. Service was good, food arrived quickly. Nice atmosphere with all tables filled and homey decor. Great neighborhood place. No frills. Will return! read more

The food is good. The lunch time server never seems happy and you constantly feel like you're inconveniencing to her. At times I personally don't go here because her vibe is so down and doesn't feel good. I like the place, just don't like to feel as a customer I'm not wanted . read more

The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced. The noodles had just the right texture, soft with a little bit of chew, and the sauce hit every flavor note. It was savory, slightly sweet, had a nice tang from the tamarind, and just the right amount of heat to keep things interesting without being too spicy. You could really taste how fresh everything was. The bean sprouts were crisp, the green onions added a nice bite, and the crushed peanuts and squeeze of lime brought it all together with a great mix of crunch and brightness. There are plenty of protein options. I went with the chicken and it was grilled perfectly--tender, juicy, and full of flavor. You can tell the kitchen puts care into every dish. This is the kind of Pad Thai that makes you pause for a second mid-bite just to appreciate how good it is. It feels comforting and familiar but also a little elevated. Nothing greasy or heavy, just really well done. Whether you're a regular when it comes to Thai food or trying it out for the first time, this place is absolutely worth a visit. The Pad Thai alone will have you planning your next trip back. read more

This place is nasty the people are rude The Place smell like nasty . There's a leak coming down when you enter. I literally came out there smelling like poop. I had to return my food. I wouldn't recommend it. The only good thing about this places they have a parking lot. read more

I am into the second decade coming here for food and it's been quite awhile. Props for all they do to give back to the community. They give back a lot and have done so for years. The food is still solid and I still have my favorites. I can't even tell you how many different people I have dined here with. Here is to a third decade, which is coming up quickly. read more

A ballard classic. So glad it managed to stay. This has been my neighborhood Thai place for decades.

I do not care what anyone says, this place is phenomenal, I've been coming here for YEARS. YEARS. It is authentic, so beautiful inside, and so insanely delicious. People complain about how spicy it is, but that is how you know it is good. You don't have to get spicy at all, but they know how to do both, and WELL. 10/10. read more

Beware - I asked about an extra charge on the bill and was told it was a service fee. They don't label any items on the bill - they just put prices - so it looks like it is another food item. When I asked if the fee goes to the servers as a tip I couldn't get a direct answer. Most people won't notice they are charging a special fee since it's not labeled. Nothing is printed on the menu or the website about the fee. That is dishonest! Food was so-so. Interior and decor really needs an update. read more

We get takeout every flew weeks and are pleased with the results. Autumn curry is delish! We love the fresh rolls! Yummy lychee lime drinks are always refreshing! Phad see sew w Chicken is the kids go to and they can make it gluten free with tamari. read more

Best Thai food I've ever tasted! The flavor was so good! Also the Thai iced coffee was amazing as well. Had the Phad Thai and I'm very impressed! 10/10 highly recommend! Service was good too! I'm a tough critic and had to leave a positive review bc the food was that good! read more

Hands down the best thai food and family like service. I have been coming here with my grandma Helen and Papa John for almost 30 years. I drive an hour because nothing compares. The stars do get spicy, so we stick with a one star. The #10 soup is outstanding and the #28 chicken delight is heavenly. read more

Best Thai food in the neighborhood and it's not even close. The spice level can be a little inconsistent but it's always fantastic. Huge menu with lots of vegetarian options. We get takeout a lot but eating there is even better. The service is great, I love the ambiance, and their charity work is inspiring. read more

Came here with a few friends and it was pretty decent. The pad Thai wasn't dry and had a good balance of sweet and tangy. The yellow curry could have used a little more flavor and the potatoes were raw, but overall it was pretty good. We also got fried tofu with peanut sauce which was surprisingly very good. The prices are fair for the area, and it looks like it's even more fair during lunch. Will definitely be back for lunch! read more

Thai Siam has been my go-to spot for years, the service is excellent and the food is so comforting and nourishing. An absolute neighborhood treasure! read more

My cousin from out of state order our dinner from here tonight. WE love Thai Siam! Food has always been so yummy! Customers for over 18 years. Still delicious but smaller portions which is so upsetting. I am going through Chemotherapy second time around and was looking forward to my red curry chicken!! It was half the size container For the price of food, It was not worth it for getting less food. Especially when I was at chemotherapy all day long. I was hungr tonight and so was my family. I am not sure why they are cutting back on their size containers. Upset but will think about coming back as we live now in Woodinville, WA and Thai Siam is located in Ballard, WA about a 30 minute drive. Staff has always been nice to me and courteous. read more

We went here for lunch on a weekday. It wasn't busy and we were seated immediately. We were given a complimentary salad and water. We ordered our food and we were asked about our preferred level of spice (1-4). We love spicy food, but opted for a level 3, to be sure. We got chicken satay, phad see-iw, yum gai, and the fire breathing dragon shrimps. Everything was good and spicy. The place is a bit tiny and dark, but food is great. read more

I recently moved to the neighborhood and have been looking for my new Thai food spot. I've been here twice now and so far it's hitting all the marks. First off, the restaurant is run by family and you can feel the love they have for the place. Both the food and the service will keep me coming back. Nothing but smiles from the staff and my water glass kept full. The prices are very reasonable and If you decide to order spicy they deliver! Today I had cashew delight and it was on point. The chicken and veggies were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious and balanced. I highly recommend this place! read more

We love this place!! Food and service are fantastic!! Best Thai we've in Seattle! It's also kid friendly which is a plus since we've eliminated many of our favorite Seattle places since becoming parents. read more

Spring rolls were tiny and virtually flavorless. The pad Thai is pretty bland and the chicken is dry. No lime too. I used to order from here more regularly but probably won't be back. Bummer! read more

Great flavor, surprising amount of kick (3 star out of 4) and really cool decor inside the restaurant. Ordered the Thai curry noodle which was fantastic. Green curry with chicken and chewy noodles really hit the spot. Definitely recommend this place. read more
