    Chicken with broccoli, yellow curry and brown rice. Yummmmm!,

    My wife and I went on a whim to check out Olympia. She wanted Chinese and we found this place. It is small place, nothing fancy, but the food was fantastic. My wife went with chicken broccoli. I decided to try the yellow curry with brown rice. They were both made to order and very flavorful. The server was very nice. We arrived just 25 minutes before they were to close and offered to take our food to go. She said, no, please take a seat. The food came out hot and fresh. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, not overcook like at some places.

    I love everything about this place. This place is the perfect mom and pop restaurant. I have been coming here for 13 years, and I am still always happy with the food and atmosphere. My favorite is the Delux Fried Rice and a nice large sake. The owner is also amazing, and she is your server, too.

    Far East is fantastic. Vegetarian options are soo good, and my omnivorous friends love the peanut sauce tofu as well.

As we were looking at their menu to decide what we wanted, the owner/cashier was very polite and kind and asked if he could give our dogs some treats as they were with us. Our fur babies loved the treats and the nice gentleman complimented them. I always appreciate a business that is dog friendly. We decided to order a Pad Thai classic and Pad Thai Stix. We were given a little electronic device that would beep when our order was ready. After a few minutes, we got our food and on their counter they had utensils, napkins, sauce cups, and different ways of giving your food some spice as they do not have the typical star spice level system here. The sauces they provided were a peanut sauce and sweet chili sauce and it went perfectly with our Pad Thais. We were really impressed with Pad Thai Stix as that was our first time trying anything like that. We definitely want to return to try more of their menu! There are plenty of seating near the food truck. There are even sheds with seating as well, if you want to avoid the sun.

It was good, but I totally expected a pad see ew equivalency with the big and flat noodles. These noodles did not taste as good as that, but eh... on me for not reading the whole description. The Vietnamese coffee was indeed very bitter, but thank gosh for our very accommodating waitress who was willing to pour in mil k to sweeten it up for me. It took me a bit to finish this drink because it did its job to wake me up after a 12 hour shift, tax filing for the 2025 year, and immediate hangout with Jaric. Jaric got something with chicken, which was okay. I liked it and it was definitely filling! The restaurant is fun with its yellow lighting, but it is one where you are able to still take nice enough photos as well as read the menu. Thank you again to the waitress for helping me finalize my order when I had to take some time to decide what was worth the price to eat. Thank gosh for side street parking during the weekday, too, because we were able to comfortably park our car and go to this restaurant.
