    Overall: A+ // 6 stars One of my most memorable meals in a long time. The flavors take me back to my Bangkok visit just a few months ago. The staff were very friendly, particularly Ford and Tee who both sparked natural conversations, which was much appreciated as a solo diner. I was super impressed that they managed to give me even Thai restaurant recs in New York where I am normally based! Highly recommend. Pad Thai - The best Pad Thai I've had in the states. The acidity, saline, and sweetness all come through immensely bold as intended by the Thai flavor palette. Before I even took the first bite, I knew I was in for an authentic treat. When they serve Pad Thai with a spoon of sugar, that's when you know. The banana blossom is also a smart pairing, as its light and grassy to sharply contrast those bold flavors. Lemonade - Beautiful drink with expert craftmanship creating that perfect gradient of clear lemonade to the deep purple of the butterfly pea.

    Fern Thai is officially our new go-to Thai spot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space is a vibe, the service is friendly, and the food is super delish![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We came with a bigger group and ordered a spread consisting of: Moo Hong, Crab Fried Rice, Crispy Garlic Chicken, Green Curry, and Holy Basil. Every single dish was a hit- super flavorful and homey! My personal favs were the Holy Basil and the Green Curry. Note: None of the a la carte dishes come with rice, so be sure to order a side of it or opt for a shared fried rice dish like us.

    Crispy Garlic Chicken
    Helen C.

    Fern Thai is one of my go-to's for when folks need a recommendation for Thai food; it's just consistently good, but they do get fairly busy especially when the weather's nice. Their menu has most of the classics, but it's fairly comprehensive with some unique options for the more adventurous as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Most recently, I was able to walk in at 7:30 PM on a weekday with a group of 5, but we definitely snagged the only available table on the patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My go-to's are the Pineapple Fried Rice and the Massaman Lamb Shank. Their version of Pineapple Fried Rice has a super strong curry flavor to balance against the sweetness of the pineapple, which I love. It's also definitely cooked on high heat so that it almost tastes smoky / crispy on the best way. The Massaman Lamb Shank is fall apart tender in an uber savory gravy. The roti isn't the flakiest version I've ever had, but it got a good crisp on the outside and is a nice carby vehicle to transport sauce to your mouth.

    I truly believe this is the best Thai restaurant I've ever tried. Each and every menu item is so excellently executed and seasoned. I've been here multiple times trying a variety of dishes and they are all amazing. This time I tried a fried enoki dish with the most delicious red sauce/stew. It was so tangy and savory at the same time. Amazing! The duck curry is also always good and fresh. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and location are great as well, in the heart of Bellevue downtown with tons of things are so.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend. I always want to come here while visiting Washington.

    I visited this restaurant for the second time this past week and my rating is the same as my first visit. It wasn't bad but wasn't great or memorable either. My daughter wanted me to try the crispy garlic chicken so we ordered that and the happy hour veggie egg rolls. The egg rolls were OK. They came out hot and crispy on the outside but the filling was a little mushy and soft. Somewhat flavorless so had to use the accompanying sauce to eat it. Next up was the crispy garlic chicken. It had a somewhat "tangy" taste to it that I didn't really care for. I'm not really sure how else to describe it. I've never had a crispy garlic chicken with that flavor profile. I could also taste a hint of fish sauce which I know is authentic but sometimes it's off-putting for me. The portion amount was decent though and my daughter and I were able to share the dish. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute restaurant, loved the decor, the service was attentive.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I just found the food mediocre and for that reason, I probably would not visit again.

    Pad See Ewe
    Nancy P.

    The pad see ewe was the best I've had in a very long time. It was chewy, and didn't have too much oil in it. The flavor was very balanced too. We got level 4 spice and it was perfect. The roast duck curry had a good flavor to it, but the lychee and apples in it definitely threw me off. I couldn't tell if I liked it or not, but it was definitely different.

    Food is great! Service and seating is a little slow and disorganized, but the food makes up for it. Always packed!

    FERN THAI ON MAIN @ BELLEVUE Parking can be a little difficult since it's mostly street parking, and sometimes the main road is closed due to markets or farmers markets. I recommend parking at Bellevue Square Mall and walking over it's about a 10-minute walk. You can also try finding street parking near the downtown park area. I've been here multiple times, both with my family and for a company lunch, and I've absolutely loved it every single time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is super cute and definitely on the smaller side. They have both indoor seating and an outdoor patio, and I highly recommend sitting outside if the weather is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]That said, the inside is also really charming decked out with a cute aesthetic, cozy colors, and the sweetest little tablecloths on each table. I love the overall atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For food, I highly recommend getting their Pad Thai. It's beautifully plated, super flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The prices are a bit on the higher side around $20 per dish but it's good quality for what you're getting. I do wish the portions were slightly bigger, but the dishes are definitely shareable if you order a few plates. Overall, I would definitely recommend stopping by The Spice if you're looking for Thai food in Bellevue. Don't forget to order the crab rangoons as an appetizer, they're delicious. The staff is also super friendly, which makes the experience even better.

    Food is really tasty here Ordered roast duck curry and pad see eew. The curry is so flavorful and they use fruits to sweeten the curry Pad see eew has a very good flavor

    Pad Thai Boran and Panang Neau Yang
    Kimmy L.

    Fern Thai on Main has been around for a long time. It has several sister restaurants including Tem Sib and Sisi Kay. My Thai friend thought it was pretty authentic for Thai food and so I decided to go for dinner with another on a rainy weekday to celebrate their recent job offer. My friend and I arrived at around 6pm and were seated immediately. We decided to share the PAD THAI BORAN ($19.95) with chicken and the PANANG NEAU YANG ($21.95) with a side of white rice. With tax and tip, the bill came to $57, which is definitely on the high end for Thai food, even in Bellevue. The PAD THAI BORAN is their signature dish, according to many reviewers. It has egg with banana blossom and ground peanuts. My friend and I honestly weren't sure if we were supposed to eat the blossom or not, but we tried it. It tasted like a raw onion/celery and so we left it alone after taking a bite. However, I will say that this Pad Thai is the BEST PAD THAI I've ever had and very different from what many other Thai restaurants serve. Fern's Pad Thai sauce is savory, sweet, and slightly umami with an almost creamy texture. Portion sizes were generous too and so I highly recommend giving their Pad Thai a try if you go! The PANANG NEAU YANG was also fantastic. It has grilled flat iron steak in panang curry sauce and kaffir lime zest. The steak was perfectly cooked and very tender and juicy. It was well-marinated in a sweet and savory sauce and was amazing with the creamy curry- you could definitely taste the lemon grass and other spices! We got two star spice level and the heat level was right on point. Compared to other panang curries I've had, I was surprised that this was more yellow in color than red, but it was very tasty. I wish it had more veggies in it, but I loved the dish otherwise. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is modern and trendy. They have a bar and plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only downside is the parking as they do not have a lot - it's street parking only or you can walk from the park.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was decent. Our waitress came by several times to fill our waters and check in on us. They also were in no rush for us to leave, but then again, it took them a while for them to notice and to bring us a bill and boxes. Overall, if prices weren't so high, I would probably give them 5 stars. I just think $20 for noodles is too high of a price point and so this will only be an occasional dining spot for me. 5/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere

    Crispy Garlic Chicken and Pad See Ewe in the back
    Kathy N.

    Eh, would not come here again. Not because I had a negative experience but because nothing seemed particularly special to me. Decent and probably solid option if you're in the area Pros: -[[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean establishment. I liked the aesthetic. Lots of seating[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] -They have seasonal drinks and menu items -Service was fine -Pad See Ewe was flavorful -Serving sizes good Cons: -Crab rangoon wrapper was not good. Felt like they were air fried rather than actually deep fried. Filling was good but not a lot. $13 for 6 pieces is practically a robbery -Crispy garlic chicken was ok. I wouldn't say it was bad but I've had better. It also didn't stay crispy for long under the sauce

    Natasha B.

    I love this place! The price is reasonable and there's a cute side patio. The portions are pretty big and their special cocktails are delicious. The servers are super nice and many actual Thai employees.

I enjoyed my noodle soup, it was exactly what I needed with the sourness and the crunchiness of the fried wonton wrapper on top.

Unfortunately they did not have happy hour on the day I went, but I would like to try their menu for that in the future. It looks like they have a great selection of drinks. I will be coming here next time with my boyfriend on a date.

The fact that these were also coated in oil was pretty nice. On the inside, I thought the prawns were cooked well - they remained pretty soft and didn't appear overcooked I did feel like the spice was pretty much missing, though. I ordered 4/5 stars, but it tasted more like 1/5 stars as there was a pretty significant lack of spice that took away from a lot of the flavor potential. Speaking of the missing flavor, there should've been a lot more sauce added to this dish - either poured on top of the prawns or the prawns come sitting in it. The benefit of this is that it you can mix everything with the rice - and this sauce coats the rice to make it taste good. The way it's currently presented, the prawns are too large to really eat with the rice, and mixing the two will just result in eating the meat and taking another bite of plain rice because there isn't enough sauce to coat the rice. This dish just ended up being eating the prawns by themselves - the rice wasn't super useful As a result, after finishing I really wasn't that full For the price (around 20 ish) there are a good amount of prawns, but I wouldn't really say you're getting a good deal here

    Went out for dinner with family and tried the Thai sukiyaki, khao soi, and Panang curry with tofu…read more We chose spice level 3 for most dishes and level 5 for the khao soi. The restaurant was hosting an event, so part of the space was closed off, and service was noticeably slow. It took a while for the food to arrive. The khao soi was decent--not the best I've had, but still a solid choice. The Panang curry had a mild flavor with a subtle lime note and a touch of sweetness, which was interesting but not particularly bold. Overall, the food was okay, but unless you live nearby, it might not be worth the trip. If you do go, I'd recommend ordering a higher spice level, as everything leaned on the mild side. Good ambiance overall.

    *Vegetarian Foodie Review*…read more I just looked at the positive reviews and ended up going here during our trip to Seattle. Omg, what a place! There was a wait since it was the weekend, but we didn't have to wait more then 20 mins after joining the waitlist at the restaurant. What I really liked is that as our turn got close, they started taking our order early so it would be ready by the time we sat down. My husband ordered non-veg, while my 5 year old and I decided to share and just got the "Vegan Thai Fried Rice with Tofu" - requested mild and less oil. The order came within 5 mins since they had taken it in advance. Omg, what a flavor profile! I loved, loved it! I have been to many Thai places, but the vegan food here tasted truly amazing - the best fried rice ever! My daughter slurped it all down really quick too. We both finished every bite. What I especially appreciated was how many tofu pieces they included. Usually I noticed restaurants are stingy with the tofu in fried rice, not sure why, but this place was generous with it. Tofu is a touchy subject for me because my daughter loves it and eats it all, so I hardly get any protein for myself, usually ending up with only 3-4 pieces. But here the tofu portion was pretty good. We loved it so much that we came back again on the last day of our trip, as weekday that time, with no wait time. One more important thing to note: kids get special plates and cutlery here. My daughter got a pink princess plate and OMG, she was so excited waiting for her food just to eat off it. It's a total hit with kids! The ambiance was really nice too, lively and full of super cute murals featuring popular Seattle spots on the walls, Coming back again during our next visit to Seattle for sure!
