Lately this has become our go-to Thai restaurant in a city filled with great Thai food. We've really enjoyed their pad kee mao and pad see eye and their green and house curries are also very good. They have a good amount of heat to them, the flavor is well balanced, the vegetables and proteins are plentiful and fresh tasting, and the portion size is good. The reason I don't give them five stars: rice is not included with the curry meals and the restaurant itself smells a little. We've always ordered for takeout so less concerned about the smell but just be aware if you are dining in. read more

A classic, old school Thai restaurant in Capitol Hill. On the front, it boasts $20 lunch specials and 20% off for happy hour from 4:30pm-6pm. First impression of these prices are, they are higher than the typical Thai restaurant, so I have to assess it in the lens of that, not a typical fast casual restaurant. The good thing though is that if you have InKind credits, Resy credits, Doordash credits etc, this place takes them all, so if you are finding yourself in a position where you must use the credits somewhere, this is a fairly convenient candidate. We got the curry trio with roti, roasted duck curry, swimming rama with pork, and pineapple fried rice with beef, all 2/5 spicy which is fairly mild-medium for my taste buds. We also got some cocktails like the Bass'd and My Thai, the former which is Thai tea with Hennessy and the latter is a mai tai variant. The curry trio with roti is good, though the curry is a little watery. They give a really good amount of curry that we ended up just sipping it like soup later on. The roasted duck curry is really good, a bit on the pricier side but it had a duck leg and a few chunks of duck meat, so you are getting some value (rice is not included, add $3). The swimming rama is good - peanut and garlic dominate the flavors, and the pork is tender and the spinach is decent. The pineapple fried rice with beef is decent - I wished it was a bit more elaborate in presentation like having a half pineapple (that is what I typically envision for this dish), but it is still delicious. There is generous amounts of beef, pineapple, sausage, etc with not much rice, so I prefer that for the value. The cocktails are good and decently strong. $15 is okayish, but the 20% off during happy hour pushes the needle to order a drink alongside the food. The cocktails are fairly basic and easy to make, but we still ordered them for the full experience. Service is good as the food was ready in a timely manner and they had water refills. It took them a little bit of time to get the check, but otherwise it was a fairly efficient experience. read more

Stopped in for lunch before the Pumpkin Beerfest. Place wasn't very busy, seated right away. After looking at the drink menue, wife ordered an Old Fashioned, nyx some sake and a beer for myself. Then summer rolls, coconut chicken, pad se ew and another dish. All were fantastic. Customer service was outstanding as always. Establishment was clean, noise level is great for conversations. read more

Overall it was alright. I saw they had a daily happy hour from 4-30-6 so wanted to try, I did go on a Sunday tho so not sure if it applied on weekends and I guess it doesn't as my bill came out full priced. To be fair, the billboard does say daily and that's a bit confusing but i didnt feel like asking since honestly I don't see myself coming back. Overall the service was nice and the spot was nice and cute and clean but the food was just really not very good. The pineapple fried rice wasn't very flavorful and the pineapple didn't taste vibrant or fresh and the rice itself didn't taste like other pineapple fried rice I had and the broccoli and carrot pieces were a bit odd off of choices and the cuts of these vegetables were a little odd. The soup was not very flavorful and it mostly just tasted of the mushroom pieces in it. Overall, it wasn't bad but both dishes just didn't have much flavor. read more

Its a nice place and I usually go here for their 20 dollar lunch specials! The service is nice and it qualifies for the resy credit on amex! You get a lot of variety and pro tip: you can order thai spicy for going beyond the typical spice scale they offer to typical customers! read more

I ordered the lunch special, which offers a variety of choices for a drink, appetizer, and entrée. I went with Thai iced tea, fried tofu, and Mama's curry with tofu. The Thai iced tea was decent--on the sweeter side and served in a small (about 8 oz) glass. Nothing particularly memorable, but not bad either. The fried tofu came with peanut sauce, which was the highlight of the dish. The sauce was flavorful and well-balanced, though the tofu itself was just average. The curry included plenty of broccoli, along with tofu, red peppers, and a modest amount of cashews. It was good, but didn't quite stand out. The rice served alongside it was also solid but unremarkable. Portion-wise, the $20 lunch special felt fair and satisfying. I visited around 2 PM, and there was only one person working the counter and also as a server for the entire restaurant.. As a result, the service was quite slow. That said, the staff member was friendly, welcoming, and maintained a positive attitude throughout. The interior is cozy, with soft lighting and some tasteful ethnic décor that adds to the ambiance. Overall, the experience was okay--pleasant enough, but not something I'd go out of my way to revisit. read more

Is it far off to say that I'm in love?! This Thai restaurant is an absolute hit. They have a 20$ lunch special that includes a drink, an appetizer, and an entree. I ordered Thai tea, Crab Rangoon, and Kang Kiew. The Kang Kiew is a yellow curry, with a spice level of 1-5. I highly recommend getting a 4 or 5. It's less spicy than sriracha and it's full of flavor. The Thai tea also has the perfect amount of sweetness. Highly recommend for lunch! read more

Beautiful restaurant, great lighting, music and interior. Service is always great, they are very attentive and nice. The 20 dollar lunch special is a great deal, and the food is always so good. I usually get the pad see ew but the lunch special is such a steal. The crispy garlic chicken is to die for, and honestly anything on the menu is a 10/10. Would definitely recommend. read more

I ordered takeout as I was craving Thai and wanted to try something different, the interior was decorated in a fun vibe. I ordered the garlic chicken and the pad khee mao with beef. The service was friendly and the garlic chicken was good with just the right amount of breading.The beef was a little tough and there was a $4 up charge for beef. Overall the prices were expensive considering the portions and we spent almost $70 with tip on lunch without any drinks. read more

Pretty pricy for what it is. Standard fare, the pad see ew was fine. I actually liked the curry flight we got as an app maybe a bit more although the roti was really greasy. Mainly it's the pricy to taste ratio that can't really justify it for me. read more

Pretty decent Thai place in Pike Street with ample seating. Dropped in to grab quick dinner with a friend and we ordered Pad Kee Mau and their house special noodles.

I ordered a small tom yum soup and it barely tasted like Tom yum. It didn't feel it had a good sourness and mostly was salty and tasted of chili peppers. Service is very friendly here though. It's in a convenient area in cap hill but parking usually gets difficult around here. I'm sure you could find somewhere better to stumble into. Or perhaps don't get the Tom yum read more

Came with a walk-in party of 5 around 8pm on a Sunday night. It was a little busy but the staff were happy to accommodate us and set up a table for 5. Service was friendly and fast. I ordered pad see ew with tofu, with a spice level of 2/5. It was a good combo of flavor and quantity, with enough leftover to take home for lunch the next day. My entree came out to about $20 after tax and tip, which I consider a little high for just one vegetarian entree. But the size of the dish basically made up for it. Would recommend Ayutthaya to anyone looking for a casual sit-down Thai dinner. read more

This is my go-to Thai spot in Cap Hill! I've been coming here for years now and always satisfied with the food here. Their Crab fried rice is a highlight for me! This time around, we came in for a weekday dinner and found a spot easily. Our server was really helpful with curry and noodle recommendations, since we were feeling a little indecisive. We ended ordering the Panang curry and Rad nah noodles. Both were great! The Panang curry was rich and excellent over a bowl of white rice. The Rad Nah was came with plenty of veggies and noodles and tasted amazing, although there was just a bit more sauce than what I usually prefer. Overall, had a great time as expected from a CapHill staple! read more

This was the first place I had Thai food over 25 years ago. A friend and I were going to go to Taku but he forgot his ID. So when I saw this place was still open I suggested it. I used to work on the hill and this was a regular of the gang I worked with my go to was their phad see ew. On this visit I decided to try their COCONUT CHICKEN it was listed as one of the specialties. I had grabbed an ice cream before cause I had time to waste before meeting my friend so I knew I wouldn't eat my entire meal and wanted something I knew would reheat well. Also my friend got the crab fried rice so I wanted to get something comparable in price. Food was still delicious and comforting. Service was friendly and food came out quickly. It was nice to see this family owned restaurant was still around. The Seahawk game was on this Thursday and it obvious the owners were fans in their jerseys and the game on in the bar. Was nice to go back and visit the place I had my first experience with Thai food. read more

Awesome selection of authentic Thai dishes. Big portions for family-style eating. Can't wait to go back!

Still wonderful. Excellent thai, great service (Boon is wonderful) and such Seattle history. They say Capitol Hill is experiencing an epidemic of frat boys and entitled young couples, but the today's view from the corner window table of Ayuttahaya showed the soul of the neighborhood to be intact. read more

I got the Larb, with ground chicken. Usually going to Thai restaurants I opt for the ever faithful pad Thai or pad see ew, but I recognized the name larb so I tried it and it was delicious. It had a very nice refreshing, citrusy, and tangy tamarind taste. If I could drink the vinaigrette it was served in I would. I got a level 3 spice, which I didn't think was too spicy, but my friend got the fish curry and he was sweating heavily, so maybe ask about how intense the spice is if you're not someone who manages it well. I think my only complaint with the dish was the plating. The plate was maybe a little too small for the serving size, or it could be in a mess and I don't have decent eating habits. It was also served with an almost half wedge of cabbage. I believe this was meant to be be peeled leaf by leaf, but the cabbage size was a little awkward and didn't work that well as a serving vessel. But overall very delicious and would definitely recommend. read more

I haven't stopped in to Ayutthaya since I lived on Capitol Hill (back when mankind feared for dinosaur attacks) but we were in Seattle for the garden show so we decided to head up the Hill to try it. Ayutthaya is celebrating 30 years in business and it surprised me that this would mean that when I used to lunch here it was relatively new. We ordered the three curries with roti to start and had an order of the crab fried rice, Ayutthaya noodles with squid, and a pad Thai with prawns. The review might be colored by the fact that we were starving by the time we walked up. The Ayutthaya noodles are still as flavorful as I remembered. The squid was a nice accompaniment to the wide noodles. The pad Thai was saucy than I recalled but tasted good. The crab fried rice, which I don't think I had back when we dodged dinosaurs, was very good. The only nitpick would be that you crunched into the occasional shell fragment - but at least you know it's real crab that way! It's a venerable Thai place on Cap Hill and still worth visiting if you're in the mood for Thai. read more

Food was average. Pad see ew was not seasoned Chicken larb and crispy garlic chicken was pretty decent. Spicy eggplant stir fry wasn't anything special although it was spicy. Portions are large, I had plenty of leftovers after dinner. read more

Decent food. Below average for Seattle Thai food. Pad woon zen was not good, pad khee mao was better. It was kind of annoying how the takeout boxes/bags were leaking when we picked it up. Service in terms of order-pickup time was fairly quick which was a plus read more

Food was okay and they only have one vegan option which tastes more like a peanut dip than a curry. Fine as long as you're not vegan.

I'm used to be a regular. The food has gone downhill. Past 2 orders to go have been wrong. Completely wrong items. Both time they told me I would get a refund but then nothing. So many great Thai options in this area. They need to step it up. read more

Good food, great service, green curry was delicious, but a bit too hot for a number 2

I've been coming here for two years and love it. My favorite is the spicy basil fried rice. The service each time is wonderful.

Pretty good Thai food! We got the pad kee maos and the crispy garlic chicken and we chose 4 spice level for everything but it wasn't spicy at all. The noodles were really good and tasty but the crispy garlic chicken tasted more like orange chicken and it was dry on the inside. I also got a thai iced tea that was refreshing! read more

Service is always great! Food is even better! And ambiance is so nice, it feels like a quiet get away in such a busy area. I would 100% recommend coming here, way more affordable than other Thai in the area and you get great portions. Bya was our server and he is the best ever! read more
