Love this small place in Covington food is good, nice location and will be back soon. Some suggestion though, to have more servers as they only had one person working the floor when we were there on a Sunday. read more

Food was delicious! The service was quick and the server who helped us gave us some tips on ways to spice up the benjarong fried rice with their homemade spicy fish sauce! Flavors were very bold and yummy! Definitely will come back again! read more

Service was good, very polite server. Food came out quickly and fresh. Rich in flavor and how we asked for it. Restaraunt is clean and smells good. Odor is a huge thing for me. Restrooms were clean as well. read more

Pretty slow for a Saturday night, only 2 tables were occupied but we waited to be seated. The floor was sticky all over, so that was kind of gross. The food in general was pretty good. We had our 2 young kids with us and because of that they assumed we wouldn't want anything spicy, which was not cool. We eat food with a little heat all the time. Would have probably given another star. We'd try it again but ask for some spice. The menu was not up to date. Lots of items available that weren't on the menu and crossed off items. read more

Service was slow. I asked for green curry but not hot and it came spicey hot. I asked for beef and it was tough. I could not finish my meal. I'm used to rice being offered with it and it was not. Change was given back as mostly Penny's. read more

I came here a few times since 2005. Never left a review until Now. I maybe would get take out every five to six years. Not consistently. My first experience 17 years ago wasn't bad. Everything reminded me of when I lived in Thailand. A few times is stated dwindling in quality. But today was just ok. First I was not happy that when I orders moo yang I asked for Sirloin steak, instead I got pork. The mixed veggies the green beans were raw so difficult to chew. The egg plant is also hard to chew becuse it's not fully cooked, and the flavor seems off. It was never this bad before. I like supporting local mom and pop businesses, but I think I'm pretty much done coming here! When there are so many other Thai places I'm willing to even drive to Canada for. The last photo I posted was the food I ordered. I didn't show the yellow curry because too spicy for me because my hubby likes it 5 star spicy. So far most of our veggies are inedible. So not happy! Only reason I gave a two because at least we had a few items we could eat for dinner. read more

My favorite Thai place wasn't on DoorDash, and I didn't want to drive. So, we tried this place due to good reviews, and it was not good. It was awful! I took one bite of the pad Thai, which was slimy and tasted fishy. The spring roll was also slimy and very doughy and soft. I tossed this meal right into the trash- that was $60.00 wasted. I would not recommend this place! DoorDash gave me an error when trying to leave a negative review (probably why there are so many positive reviews), so leaving a Yelp review. read more

If possible I would give 2.5 stars but will round up to 3 because they are better than 2. Met a friend here for lunch last Friday at 11:30a. We were the only ones other than one other couple. My friend ordered one of the lunch combo specials. Swimming Rama served with a spring roll, jasmine rice & Phad Thai. Definitely the best deal to go for a lunch combo I ordered an entree ginger chicken served only with jasmine rice for the same cost of my friends combo lunch. You might think my entree portion would be larger because I didn't get a spring roll & Phad Thai like she did but you'd be wrong. My entree portion size was disappointing. Also I ordered 3 star spicy and it was barely 1 Star. Had to go ask for a hot sauce/spice caddy. read more

I got a meal from the vegetable section of the menu and guess what when I went to eat the leftovers a day later, there was a piece of chicken in it. I don't know how it got in there since I did takeout so it could not have come from another meal. read more

Ordered online for Covington store through grubhub. Arrived at Covington store and they said they do not take online orders. They explained Covington store does not take online orders and only the Maple Valley store does. All verifications through grubhub showed order was through and being prepared by Covington store. Had to drive to Maple Valley store to pickup food. Arrived at Maple Valley store 20 min after grubhub verified ready time and food was still not ready. Maple Valley store customer service not friendly at all. No apologies from anyone at Maple Valley Store. Very disappointed! read more

This restaurant charged me more than what I wrote on the receipt. We orderrd 2 dishes and 1 rice. The total was $31ish. I usually tip with cash but I only had $5 with me so I tipped them $5 cash plus $2 on my credit card. That was more than 20%. Guess what? They changed my $2 tip to $6 tip. How is that legal? My suggestion for you is don't tip them at all!!! They don't deserve it after what they did. I'm sure they do that to othet custumers too. It's just a few bucks but it was STEALING! I'm maddddd read more

I order them in door dash all the time, they work very hard and take pride in their food. The pad Thai is amazing!

Before I get to the negative, I'll stress the positive. The food was good. Shrimp were a little small on the fresh rolls, and a lot of lettuce. Wings were crisp and tasty. The pork Pad Thai, my go to, was great. Now for the negative. I ordered from the link in Yelp using the Grubhub Checkout for a scheduled pick up. To my surprise I was questioned if I had placed my order. When I said I had placed it online, they went over to a tablet and said it was there and would be ready in 15 minutes. Frustrating, but they did hurt and get the food out in about 10 minutes. If not for this I would give 4 stars all day long. read more

I hadn't been to Benjarong in a while since 2020. It had been looking tired inside and there was a chef change a few years ago so I stopped coming. But today, wow. Good stuff to report! They recently touched things up inside and did some revamping of the restaurant (new tables, pillows on chairs, corner seating, changed out some of their textiles). Very snazzy! They offered a thicker paper napkin and redid their menus. Nice jazz was playing in the background and the service was excellent. I ordered my usual and it was quite tasty. It's amazing how just the little touches can spruce up the ambience. I will be back soon! read more

I don't ever leave restaurant reviews, because like why, jk. I ordered here specifically because of good ratings and I was curious of the prices as they were alittle higher than you normally see per dish. Well worth it! I am so picky about meat I barely eat it and this chicken was very good quality. I had the golden noodles and spring rolls with rice, it was bomb ! read more

Ordered take out from this Thai place a week ago after my work shift. I was a bit confused where to go when I came in but went straight to the bar area to find a lady in the kitchen come out. She was kind and friendly. I ordered chicken pad thai with added mushrooms and it looked really yummy. After trying, I'd say it was okay tasting. I wasn't fan of how the chicken was very chewy. The sauce had an interesting sour taste and the noodles stuck together in my mouth. I was pretty hungry so I just ate how much I could. read more

This has become my go to Thai place in Covington. Super nice family that run the place. My favorite thing on the menu here is the crispy garlic chicken. The regular Thai dishes are also good. read more

Excellent food and excellent presentation (meaning packed in nice containers for pick up). Quality skill and produce. So glad I found them.

It can be confusing when looking this location or Maple Valley up, but there is a definite clear distinction between this one verse the one in Maple Valley. Besides the coziness and warm toned interior; this location boasts the best of dining between the two. We recently came here for dinner and I was blown away by the completely different quality in food. The server was very friendly and so polite when she sat us. We added four additional family members and they were quick to seat them when they arrived. The curry was so incredibly balanced! The burst of coconut milk that adds a delicious flavor when I began to get our order. The flavors are so distinct and they literally are the absolute best. I was so pleased with the quality of the meats as well. The cute mason jar cups with our soda added such a punch of flair to the table. Over all, this location is the best. I'm not sure how the two businesses are connected but if you want delicious Thai food, this must be one of the best restaurants in the area! Thanks for a wonderful meal! read more

Saturday 8/2/2014 I came in during lunch hour, was the only one, this place is dead as a door knob! The server did not greet. She just handed me the menu and pour my water, quite odd. She came back, took my order and was a little bit more chatty. I hope she doesn't mess up my order, otherwise I will be a sad panda =( Hmmmm...it's a Saturday afternoon and no one is coming. I'm starting to wonder if this is a good Thai restaurant. Kind of scared...lol My order is taking foreverrrr!!! Hmmm...if all fails, I guess there's always Coldstone right next door, ice cream is always good for lunch, right? So my order got messed up. I ordered chicken tom yum with thick rice noodle (2stars). What came out was the thin rice noodle...5 stars! I was nice enough to not say anything, just so they won't spit in my food the next time I come back. Cuz their food is pretty good =) just very spicy!!! ~~~~Edit~~~~~ Sunday 8/3/2014 Ok, so I came back to this place again during lunch time, with my husband. Just to grab a quick lunch, the lady server from yesterday came and scolded me, right in front of my husband. All because I wrote a bad review yesterday that they messed up my order. That right there is bad customer service. We immediately got up and left the restaurant. Again, it was dead as a door knob. I should've listened to what other Yelpers said on here about their horrible service before making an attempt to even come back the second time around. If I can give a 0 star for this place, I would. But their lucky to even have 1 star at this point. PS: I know you're (lady server) reading this. If you are the owner, your customer service skill sucks! If you are just a server, your manager need to train you a bit more on treating your customers right, to ensure excellent customer care. read more

Thai food has a special place in my heart. I'm already bummed out that one Thai place already closed down, but it was also a blessing in disguises to find this place. I found this place on a meal delivery service. I ordered phad Thai and it was amazing. I am very picky about the sauce. I know a fraud when I see and taste one & this ain't it. My phad Thai needs to be hot and fresh off that wok, noodles needs to be Ooey gooey, the sauce needs to be that tamarind saucy not KETCHUP saucy ok? This checked off every box. It broke my heart though when I ordered to go for the second time... the noods were over cooked in both the phad Thai and phad se ew. I would still recommend this place though read more

Disappointed, I got the basics, chicken pad Thai and fried rice both made me sad. I have to agree with a lot of the other reviews the service was not friendly. read more

We went in to have dinner a few minutes ago and was ignored for a long time, standing by the bench at the entrance! We walked out after we couldn't stand it anymore! The waitress has seen us and the correct way was to say, " I will be with you in a few minutes ", instead of totally ignoring us! Yes, there were 3 customers lining up to pay and she was the only one doing everything. I saw four people inside who could have come out to sit us at a table, only two tables were occupied. Service could have been better! read more

I've been going here for several years, have always gotten the same thing; Beef pad Thai. The only Thai restaurant I ever go to on the regular. The Employees and Owner are extremely polite and service is quick. Inside is always clean and welcoming. I've noticed that most of the negative reviews come from online or pick up orders, so I'd recommend dining in if you want it to be worth your while. read more

This has been my go to place for Thai food. Until today!!! VERY UPSET WITH SERVICE!!! Called to preorder Got no answer. Went in person, the young lady taking orders didn't write anything down and missed a few things. Pad Thai was HORRIBLE no flavor no spice. Just taste of burnt chicken. Chicken satay HORRIBLE, hard to bite off the stick and no flavor. Called and asked for a refund and was told to bring the food back. They looked thru all the food took pictures and determined that someone the food was eaten and they would only refund a portion of my money back. All the food was there minus the few bites i took to determine the food was DISGUSTING!!! never going back. CHOKE DEE THAI IN COVINGTON IS MUCH BETTER read more

kind of disappointed by my experience, I asked for a to go order of Tofu Pad Thai and after my wait I received Chicken Pad Thai.. the noodles looked so delicious and brown, it was just the chicken in it that was the problem. so when i got it swapped out for tofu, the noodles didn't look nearly as good as before. i don't know if the chicken makes noodles better, or they rushed on the redo, i just really wanted those flavorful brown noodles. my noodles now are kind of sticking together and more bland. also they wouldn't take my visa gift card, or whatever was left of my gift card for some tech reason. Apparently the machine won't accept the gift card unless it has the full amount but the lady didn't even try. still my favorite pad thai place though read more

Delicious food. The service e slow, maybe understaffed but mindful we were seated customers.

The food was amazing and service is good. The restaurant has a nice ambiance too it and love the pad Thai. My daughter is a picky eater and likes her food separated from sauces and everything and they even did the above and beyond by separating the chicken from the noodles so my daughter would eat, that's what customer service is all about because they didn't have to put in the extra effort for us and they did read more

This place was awful the service and food I ordered green beans w/ chicken and my daughter ordered the grilled beef salad the server was slow and appeared to not comprehend too well and the food taste bland, and we were not even asked what spice level that we wanted it, now if you are not accustomed to eating well seasoned and/or spicy food then this is the place for you. And if you're into finer dining in Thai food .... Well sorry this is truly not the place, this is for someone who doesn't know good authentic Thai food So disappointed . Maybe it is time to visit Thailand again read more

Not bad for this store front in a Covington little strip mall. Curry was a little dry with a 4/5 spiced level. We could have taken the 5. My chicken soup was just right without the noodles as requested. Very good flavor Interior is average Thai and server is good at taking order. Not much conversation, But quick service and hot food hot read more

We were looking for a Thai restaurant and went in for dinner. While the service was good, we were underwhelmed with the food. Curry shouldn't be sweet. Fried rice was over loaded with onions and cherry tomatoes. Just not what we like for Thai food. read more

Nice restaurant everyone is always friendly and kind. Feel bad that they only have 3 out of 5 stars! I feel like there better than that, not really a fair assessment of there restaurant. Please give these guys a chance and stop in! I usually order Pad Thai from them and some fresh rolls to go. There noodles are pretty tiny, but I find it fun and I remember them by it :). The fresh rolls taste great too! Love having there hot peanut sauce with them and it just makes a for a great night. read more

It was just okay! Food wasn't anything special and the time we went there they were out of white rice! Really? It's an Asian restaurant. You know customers will be asking for rice with their meal. Also, pricey for the amount you get. So NO, I will not be back. read more

Your friend ordered this food since I'm helping her rebuild her bathroom. And honestly, even though it was free, I wish I just went out and bought myself fast food. The Keemao noodles tasted of charcoal, the eggplant pad prik was unevenly cooked. Sweet the sweet black rice pudding was closer to a rice soup than a pudding. The rice from the kow pad bai ka pow was an season's almost all together which was a godsend considering how hungry I was. Overall the coffee and spring worlds were worse than I could find in a grocery store. read more

Door dash order- I ordered tom yum, and fresh rolls. The tom yum soup was super oily and had no flavor. If you know tom yum it's suppose to be sweet and sour but it was so bland. The fresh rolls tasted super sour and the peanut sauce was oily and did not taste like peanut at all. The only thing good out of this order was my thai ice coffee. I definitely will not be back to try this place. read more

Great Thai! Had pineapple fried rice with no onions and it was super good. Also, I went there on a date where we ended up talking for 2.5 hours, so they were very gracious to let us sit and talk. Staff was wearing masks, lots of take out orders going out with a good system, and staff made sure to seat us socially distant from one another which was cool. I will go back!! read more

My mother and I went here on a Saturday night for dinner around 7pm. Upon arrival, we took one of the last available tables. We ordered Tom Yum soup, crispy garlic chicken, and pad thai. The pad thai was delicious and so was the soup. The chicken on the other hand, was salty, not crispy, and tasted primarily of fish sauce. I was so offput by the flavor I cod only take a few bites. I then ordered pad se ew which was much better, however very salty. I love the ambiance of the restaurant, the staff, and some select dishes. I advise everyone to stick to the pad thai, as they do it well. read more
