Pad See Ew
Marylyn T.

The space was cute and intimate, but it is in a small house (?) so just be mindful of noise. Attentive service. The food was great. We got the pad see ew, ribeye salad, and crab fried rice to share. I would get all three of these dishes again! The pricing was standard. The portions could be bigger, but it was tasty so I'm not complaining. They had yummy cocktails too. Make sure to ask for a cocktail menu!

Ribeye Salad
Ingrid S.

Excellent customer service! I messed up the reservation time for 9 people and they still accommodated us. We appreciated that so much. The food was top notch and they have a nice selection of proteins. There are lots of seafood options as well as braised short ribs. I got the Khao Soi with tofu with thick and creamy coconut curry. Delicious! Make sure to order dessert! The coconut creme brûlée was YUM-O!

Thai Ice Tea
Devin R.

This is a super cute little Thai spot on Broadway. The floral decor was beautiful. The service was friendly and fast. The Thai ice tea was creamy but not too sweet. The drunken noodles were tasty and had really nice spice.

Pad See Ew
Sapna S.

Such a cute spot with a gorgeous interior! I believe it is a house turned into a restaurant if I'm not mistaken. My boyfriend and I came here around 9:30pm on a Friday (they are open till 11 Fridays) and there were a few people there but still open seating available. I ordered the vegetable egg rolls, which were absolutely delicious and it came with a plum sauce. It was sweet and balanced out the flavors of the egg rolls really nicely. For my main meal I got the pad see ew and it tasted great. I wish I asked for it to be spicy, because it was a bit bland. There were only 3 small pieces of broccoli unfortunately, I do wish there was more. The service was great here and we had the sweetest waitress. They had tootsie rolls you could take for a sweet treat after which was a nice touch! Would highly recommend checking this place out.

After hearing how this restaurant was owned by a Michelin chef from Vegas, I really wanted to give it a try. I came one day for dinner service with a friend and we had a great time. The restaurant is located in a house on a busy street, so it may be a bit difficult to find parking, but we just parked in the neighborhood. The interior of the restaurant is nicely decorated with flowers hanging from the ceiling and a warm, inviting ambiance. Service was very very kind the whole time and very patient in explaining the different dishes to us. While they offer your traditional Thai dishes such as pad thai and pad kra pow, they also offer more unique dishes under the "Chef's Recommendation". We ordered the Massamun Curry Short Ribs and the Crab Stir-Fry and both were delicious. The curry was flavorful and the short ribs were braised to tenderness heaven. Meanwhile, the crab stir-fry was unique and I've never had anything like it before. Plenty of crab and lots of flavor. We also had the Thai Coconut Creme Brulee for dessert and it was also delicious (but I didn't taste coconut flavor that much). Overall, I had a great time here and I highly recommend to try the Chef Recommendations if you were to come!

The food was delicious and service was amazing. It is a really cute restaurant. A must see and try!

Finally got to try this hidden gem. The food was so flavorful and delicious. I love all of the flowers on the wall, made it perfect for a yap session with the girls. Everything on the menu looks so good. It was hard to choose, but I ended up getting the clams and the flavor was so delicious. Definitely had to end the meal with a coconut crème brûlée. And their lava cake looked amazing. Great service and definitely will have to come back again.

Shrimp Pad See Ew and Chicken Pad Thai

Such a pretty atmosphere! Decorated with hanging flowers and string lights, the space radiated a warm spring feeling. I'd recommend making a reservation as the place is quite small and intimate, leading to tables filling up quickly. It's located in a building that looks to be a previous residential home which is oh so Portland. We ordered the Massaman Curry Short Ribs, Yellow Curry, Pad Thai and Pad See Ew. The curries were both rich in flavor, creamy, yet light. The Yellow Curry had a savory taste while the Massaman was sweet and gave hints of cinnamon. Both noodle dishes were above average in flavor, texture, and execution. Our party left with full tummies and happy hearts!

I guess I'm disappointed that this restaurant didn't live up to the hype for me. Don't get me wrong the service and food was good to average and the decor was lovely. The food for the price point was pretty expensive and wouldn't call it exceptional. My husband had the pork belly and said it was tender but very bland. I had the sea bass and it was thin cut and over seasoned. It's definitely not on par with any Michelin star dining I have experience and I think that hype set me up for disappointment.

Food here is very good, everything tastes fresh and the flavor profile is multidimensional and on point! The biggest plus - they are open until midnight for dine in or takeout! What??? Yes! In a city that shuts down early, this was music to my ears! So many times after happy hour drinks with friends, I'm still hungry and now I know a place where I can stop by for delicious takeout after 9pm. Late night hours wouldn't matter unless the food was good. It is! The Pad Kee Mao was my favorite, the Thai basil giving this dish one of its signature flavor components. The tender chicken, veggies and wide rice noodles all dancing in a sauce that definitely had a kick but was rounded out by some sweet, acid and sour. Wish the dish had more rice noodles, then it would have been perfection. There are bench and table seats outside on the lower front porch, a great place to have a meal and people watch. Inside strands of faux flowers hanging from the ceiling add color, ambiance, and charm. Lots of tables and chairs in the various rooms of this old house. Great neighborhood restaurant right on NE Broadway. I no longer live in the neighborhood but will be stopping by Charm frequently to satisfy my craving for legit Thai food.

Pork Cha Shu
Asha B.

Absolutely loved the ambience here, the friendly staff and the food is just delectable. This is hands down one of my favorite Thai food places in Portland. We ordered the Massaman Curry Short Ribs, the Pad See EW, and the Pork Cha Su along with the Lychee Mojito, a Bangkok Sweet night, and Sapporo. The portions are great for sharing, the flavors and meat are cooked to perfection. The drinks were good, I preferred the Bangkok sweet night to the Mojito but, of course drinks are a matter of preference. This meal was not cheap but the price to portion and value for the food we ate made it totally worth it. I am already thinking about when I will eat here again. We also arrived early for our reservation and they were able to seat us early. When our meal was delayed the chef came and talked to us. I loved the service here and will definitely go back!

Ambiance

We went for dinner Friday night. The ambiance was nice and the service was great, but the food was mediocre at best. The drunken noodles didn't taste authentic and it came with bamboo which usually doesn't come with it, and it was a miss. The portion was small for the price as well The yellow curry wasn't presentable and watered down - tasted more like a soup than curry. Also felt like the tofu was added last minute and didn't carry any flavor at all. They can prepare dishes vegan which is nice but otherwise I'd skip for sure.

Unfortunately our experience was less than ideal. We were really looking forward to trying a new Thai food restaurant, however the food and service did not meet expectations. We added our names to a list and the host stated to come back in 45 mins or they would call us if it was sooner. When we returned our names were crossed off the list and we never received a call. After placing our order we waited a hour for our food. In addition, The server assured us the dish we ordered was not spicy and when it arrived it was so spicy we couldn't eat more than a bite. The server offered to bring us milk but not to remove the food from the bill or replace with a non spicy option. The pad Thai was amazing! I wish the experience was better because the location is so cute and I love the decor.

We love you charm.   Curry short ribs

HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND…read more This was hands down some of the best food I've ever had. The server was outstanding and had us cracking up the whole time. ( guy in glasses) we came here for my husbands birthday and it was amazing service and food. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left everything was great!! The drinks were delicious. We ordered almost everything off the menu because we couldn't decide. The chicken was AMAZING. I can't wait to come back!

We were glad we came when we did...anyway, onto the food+drink! -Life of Luxury Cocktail, this thing was served in a HUGE fish cup, lol! Bigger than my hand/as big as my face. It's on the sweet side, but I needed something sweet as a buffer since some of the dishes we ordered were a bit too salty. -Thai-Style Ceviche, 11/10. No friggin' notes. I highly recommend. Portion is a bit small, because I could have eaten MORE. -Sweet & Sour Fried Chicken was decent. We ordered the Small and it was about 5-6 boneless pieces. Very unique. I recommend to try if you like fried chicken. -Wok-Fried Yu Choy was wayyyy tooooo salty. Hubs & I wanted some greens and it was fried with generous amounts of garlic, but it just got saltier and saltier as we ate it. -White Curry w/ Brisket Burnt Ends, this dish was a little bit of a mixed bag. The white curry (roasted cauliflower + coconut cream) was delicious, but did it pair well with the Brisket Burnt Ends? Not really IMO. I don't think the flavors match. I'm not exactly sure what would pair well with the white curry, maybe some veg or tofu...but BBQ fusion with the curry wasn't the best. 2 unisex restrooms available, the one I used was clean. Service was a little scattered. We got the Yu-Choy first, followed by the ceviche a few minutes later. But the Fried Chicken and White Curry took a while to come (about another 10-15 mins. to come). We were lucky to find some street parking in the neighborhood nearby.

Easily the best Thai BBQ I've had! Each part of the meal pairs perfectly well with each other and…read moreis packed with immense flavor. Khao Moo Dang Pi-Set (5/5): Upgrading to the Pi-Set is worth the extra $3, which comes with all the standard options plus extra eggs, juicy dumplings, tender yu choy, and a side of bone broth. The five-spice pork is super tender and tastes very similar to char siu. The pork belly had a great crunch and was perfectly salty, which contrasted well with the sweet Chinese sausage. The dumplings are really juicy and justify the upgrade on its own, in addition to complementing the side of bone broth. Everything ties together when coated in their signature Khao Moo Dang sauce, which rounds out the rich meats with the perfect amount of sweetness. Logistics Tip: Takeout packaging holds up well, keeping the crispy pork belly from getting soggy on the ride home while ensuring the broth stays piping hot. Upgrading to the Pi-Set version further improves an already generous meal into an expansive dish that can easily satisfy a huge appetite.

Been here twice on my past two trips to Portland …read more. The food is pretty darn good -- and pricing is also pretty fair for what it is. However, -2 stars for the last time I was there .. I was with my brother, and he had tipped them well. It was later in the evening and people were hawking our table .. and we weren't aware it was "bus" your town table, felt the need to give up our table quickly and we were already on the street and a male waiter literally ran after us to let us know where we could put our dishes? .. Ok, bro, I get it but was that necessary? Why do you guys want to be tipped 25% and when someone makes a mistake, you run after them to tell them to bus their own table? Wasn't that MORE effort than just doing it yourself and saving your PAYING customers from embarassment? Not sure if I would come back and dine-in again .. Pretty turned off and taken aback. Take-out is definitely on the table but please give your paying customers a break and some empathy.

We remembered Thai Peacock as good. Several years and one approaching curtain time later, we…read moredecided to see whether memory had been seasoning the evidence. The friendly staff promptly showed us to our table. A QR code stood in for the menu, an arrangement I tolerate rather than celebrate. One quick request produced printed menus and restored diplomatic relations. We began with shrimp salad rolls, which arrived remarkably quickly, with crisp, fresh vegetables. The accompanying peanut sauce was flavorful without being thick or ponderous. Frankly, the only thing preventing me from drinking it was a lingering respect for table manners. My spouse ordered the Egg Noodle & Basil Stir-Fry, generously loaded with shrimp. I chose the House Thai Peacock Curry with tofu. Its combination of Panang curry and peanut sauce was rich and intriguing, with just enough spice to keep each bite interesting without turning dinner into a test of character. The food arrived quickly, our server remained friendly, and the lively atmosphere made Thai Peacock an excellent choice before a show at Portland Center Stage. The restaurant we remembered fondly is now firmly back on our list. Thai Peacock earned an encore.

How do I know about this restaurant?…read more For a very brief period of time, I decided to DoorDash... on a bicycle. It was very brief, due to the fact that Portland's hills are... well, I'm in a good shape, but I won't be in the Tour De France. A side benefit is that I learned where a lot of good food in Portland resides: Thai Peacock and Little Peacock made up a fair amount of my orders. How much do I like Thai? So much that I learned to make it myself, and I make a better than average Pad See Ew/Kee Mao... So when it came time for a lunch break, well, I couldn't wait to order from Thai Peacock. I got the Pad Ka Phrao (there was not an option for super hot / Thai hot... my one complaint about their system... more on that in a minute)... and started walking. It was easy to pick up, well labeled, and hot when I arrived. The reusable bowl (for the paper bag crowd who are taking notes.. this is Portland ya know)... was full of delicious meat and vegetables. The rice was packed separately, along with the single serving of added sriracha. The serving was more than generous, and good in its preparation. There are some caveats here: Thai Peacock does not make their dishes in the same way that many other Thai restaurants do... they do it with minimal ingredients, hoping you'll add on vegetables. It gets annoying when you're looking at ordering pad se ew, and you might otherwise get a similar dish for $7-$10 cheaper. The lack of an ability to add additional heat is also unwelcome. However, I understand that each Thai restaurant has its own way of making a specific dish. The generous portions make the bare bones dish a good value, if not the best representation of the dish I've had. This would be 5* for a group meal (no shortage of options, and consistent service), and 4* based on comparison to other Thai dishes at similar price points I've had. 5* here based on what most people would likely say. An extremely reliable restaurant with tasty food and generous portions deserves it.
