    Tucked away in a corner of south Lakewood, this restaurant is a wonderful surprise. You don't come here for the decor, just great food at a price that can't be beat! Two people can eat generous servings for $30 and still bring food home. Delightful presentation of entrees. The proprietor gave us a small bag of Asian pears from her yard when we paid our bill. Great food, great service.

    Thong Thai Restaurant is a real gem! The atmosphere is comfortable, the staff is friendly and fast. The location is easy to find. Most importantly, the food is absolutely delicious! A couple members of our family have celiac disease, so we're cautious and picky about dining out. This is a trusted place that never disappoints. We actually came here to celebrate 2 family member birthdays. This business is family owned and run. Once you experience the food, it will become one of your favorite places too!

    Delicious! This is a small place that can easily be missed, but the food and customer service is wonderful! We placed a to go order and it was ready exactly in the amount of time they said. We ordered the green curry and the Thai fried rice. Both were very good! Full of flavor and the spice level as requested. The only thing to keep in mind is the portion sizes are smaller for dinner to go. If you are feeding a family or more than two people I would order extra food!

    The food here is incredible. Very well priced as well. The place is under new ownership and the new owner is doing a great job, unfortunately it doesn't seem like many people know about what a treasure this place is. My wife is Thai and we eat Thai food everyday, so a Thai place needs to be excellent to impress us. This place does. It reminds me of eating home cooked meals at my wife's home in Thailand. I have personally tried the Panang curry, wonderful Garlic, Krapao, papaya salad, fried chicken, and the drunken noodles. All delicious, and I try something new each time I come. Definitely recommend the Thai green tea. It's outstanding. The regular Thai tea is good too. There is also a selection of Thai beer (Singha) and other beers (currently Rainier and Heineken) which are newly available. Also a couple wines. The decor is definitely older, but still has its charm. This is a hole-in-the-wall, but may just become your new favorite spot for Thai food. Give it a try.

    Spicy Thai Fried Rice with shrimp spice level 3

    Came here because it is close to home and I didn't feel like driving across town. Looked online...prices seemed reasonable. I have driven past this place a million times over the years. It always looked ran down and probably at one point closed. Over the last year or so...there has been some changes in the outside appearance but still very divey. We went with the Spicy Basil Thai Rice with shrimp level three heat. It wasn't bad, but my son did not care for all of the onions and peppers in the rice--or the tomatoes. I love vegetables so it was fine for me. Got the Wonderful Garlic with chicken spice level four. Not bad but level four heat was not very spicy at all. Also got wonton soup...wontons (thick wrapper), shrimp, chicken and lots of cabbage and onion. It was okay...I have had better. Overall the food was just okay--menu prices were decent, although the final calculation seemed like there may have been a slight over charge. The convenience and quickness was definitely a plus. Would I come back? Yea maybe to try some other items. But was I pleasantly surprised...or impressed?--no. Lots of Thai spots in the area, a few of them much better than this one for sure.

    As our first stop in Lakewood we decided this was place and we weren't disappointed in the SLIGHTEST! The new owner was such a sweet kind lady and the wife and I couldn't be more happy about how happy she was! She even helped check us out! The food was FANTASTIC, wonderful tasting VISIT THIS PLACE! You won't regret it!

    This food was delicious. Super flavorful. Fresh. Super kind and quick service. We stopped on the way between Anacortes and Oregon and I highly recommend it to locals and those passing through. Really good Thai food.

    Shrimp Tom Khà soup
    Luis F.

    Excellent. I ordered it extra extra hot cause I'm a crazy Mexican and it was perfect for me. Great quality of ingredients and outstanding flavor. I also had the spicy Thai rice to go and it was also delicious. It was a bit pricey for two items but still worth it. It was an excellent choice to check this place out.

    I have to preface this by saying I NEVER leave negative reviews; But this was a health/safety issue and I would've definitely gotten sick if I ate their food. I ordered from here on DoorDash, the Tom yum soup with shrimp and papaya salad with "fresh crab meat" on top. The minute I opened the front door to grab my delivery it smelled pretty horrible. I thought, ok seafood, let's see. I opened the papaya salad to get a huge whiff of rotten fishy stench. The "crab meat" on top was actually a bunch of raw, tiny, slimy crab legs. I can not believe the restaurant sent this out. I picked them out to send a picture to DoorDash, and to my dismay, there was a whole Papaya pit and a bunch of the inedible papaya skin in there as well. I am still trying to get the smell out of my house after taking it out to the trash. The soup smelled foul too, so I just had to throw it away because I was concerned about the cleanliness and/or food contamination of the restaurant in general. I apologize for the really gross pic, but that is tiny, slimy, raw crab legs next to papaya pit and shredded skin. So gross. Shout out to DoorDash. They gave me the full credit of the order and had great customer service. I try to order direct from local restaurants because I know third party delivery has a big impact on revenue, but I was starving and this was quick and easy. Needless to say I'll save my credit for another day though, I lost my appetite.

    The yellow curry with chicken and pad Thai are consistently good. I will continue to get take out when passing through the area.

    My favorite Thai. I hadn't been in a while but I needed dinner at 8 last Sunday night and it was…read moreone of the only places open downtown. WTF Tacoma? I'd just gotten off the train from eating and drinking my way around Portland and you couldn't welcome me back with a few more choices for a good meal? But since I ended up at Thai Pepper, all was forgiven. Hands down, their pumpkin curry is on my list of all time top ten favorite foods. It's spicy, it's sweet, it's nutty, it's soothing -- it has pumpkin. The curry sauce is so good I poured what I had leftover on my mashed potatoes the next day. Everything about Thai Pepper rocks. The service is great and so is the vibe. The location is a little out of the way though, which may be why I forget to go more often-- even though there's usually good parking and it's right around the corner from the salon that cuts my hair! Love this place. Love it love it love it.

The portion sizes were large, especially for the price point, which made it feel like good value. The restaurant itself is small so never unnecessarily crowded. Service could've been better, we had to request serval times for tableware and water refills. My only issue is that the spice level was underwhelming. I ordered a spice level 4, and even though I know spice is subjective, I'm not someone who can handle super spicy food even I was still wishing for more heat. If you're someone who enjoys bold spice, you may be disappointed. The standout dish of the meal was definitely Red Curry Duck. It was rich, flavorful, and easily the best thing we ordered.

I booked a reservation here for my dad's birthday dinner. He's been here in the past and loved it so I thought it was a good safe choice, but it fell a little lackluster for him specifically which is a bummer since it was HIS birthday. We started out with some Chicken Satay and Crab Rangoon, both of which were fire. We haven't ordered those here before so can confirm the satay is a new favorite. Can't really mess up the rangoon, but still it was delicious! My dad is a sucker for Panang Curry with Chicken but they will only make it here with salmon for whatever reason? Bummer number one. He went with the Crying Tiger as his back up and when they brought it out, we were all wowed! Presentation is a 10/10 for sure. He ordered it medium rare though and it came out WELL done which, for the price, was a letdown. I ended up doing something I never do and broke free of the shackles that their Pad Thai has on me. The Boat Noodles looked so delicious that I decided to full send and give it a try - as a huge soup girlie the curiosity was just too strong. The broth is very herb forward but also still has a complex, delicious flavor. Spice level was on point. The waitress told me it was very beef forward and boy it was - but it was tasty! TONS of generously sliced beef. Loved the rice noodles too. My sister ordered the Crab Fried Rice which was an insane portion and uniquely plated. Large serving of fried rice covered in a Thai style omelet with a HEAPING pile of crab on top, served with a yummy Thai spicy mayo. She let me try a couple bites and it was pretty superb. It's a little pricy at $40 but it's at least two meals so I guess it's justified. I put in my reservation notes that it was a birthday dinner and they were kind enough to bring out a free slice of cheesecake that was beautifully presented with dry ice and all. Even with a few hiccups in this dinner we will definitely still continue to frequent. Over the 5+ times we've been here this was the first kind of "meh" experience but it was still good!

The restaurant is beautiful and well decorated, and the staff were very friendly. I do wish they had checked on us a bit more since there were a few moments we waited even though the restaurant wasn't busy at this moment. The food was excellent and made perfectly. We ordered the crab rangoons, calamari rings, chicken fried rice, and the pad ka pao, which ended up being our favorite dish we ordered. We will definitely be back!
