    Chicken pad thai, Red Curry Bowl, Pad See Ew Noodles
    Kayla P.

    This was my first time at Full Moon Thai, and although I enjoyed it, I cannot say I had a faultless experience. To be fair, I had come as part of a very large group, so I want to acknowledge that this would likely strain the staff. However, the service I experienced left something to be desired. We had originally ordered the chicken pad thai, but we were served the surprise pad thai, which has different noodles and protein. When we told the waitress, we were not met with a very hospitable response--she essentially told us that it was what we ordered, and that the kitchen staff already made it, so she couldn't just take it back. I found this response, along with her agitated tone, to be somewhat off-putting, especially since we definitely did not order it incorrectly. After a little back and forth, she eventually did exchange it for the correct dish. Besides this little mishap, the food itself was rather good, and it definitely hits the spot. The portion sizes were also great. I recommend ordering as a group so that you can try different dishes and flavors. We had a curry dish, pad thai, and pad see ew. I think I would skip on the curry, but I did like the pad thai. The restaurant itself is rather small, but they do have inside and outside seating. If going as a big group, I definitely recommend calling ahead to RSVP. I would describe the ambiance as cozy and intimate. Overall, a pretty solid restaurant! The service initially left a bad taste, but the food made up for most of that!

    So my 20yo kid comes into my work from home office, at 4, while I am working, saying "Mom, I NEED Thai foood." The kid has been so sick lately and not eating much at all, so I caved. "Ok, order Door Dash. Go ahead." Kid chose Full Moon Thai because of its high ratings and free delivery. Door Dash is still spendy, don't get me wrong, but this was a good choice. Full Moon is nowhere near us and the food still arrived quickly. It was hot and fresh. It was pretty perfect. Kid ordered tofu salad rolls and was dazzled by them not falling apart and being delicious. There was an expensive but refreshing Thai iced tea the kid said was very good. Kid ordered the All in one combination appetizer platter with 4 crab rangoon ( yummy) 2 chicken satay (delicious), 2 spring rolls ( basic) and 4 wontons ( good!) that came with multiple sauces. I have no idea how the sauces were, kid ate them all which probably means they were tasty. I wish there had been more chicken satay because one was not enough. Kid ordered chicken pad see ew and reportedly was satisfied. Kid ordered pork pad see ew for me which I ate cold after work at 7. I still have not found the microwave in our pile of boxes. I did find chopsticks though! Anyway. It was delicious. The noodles were perfect, it had that smoky wok hei thing going on, and the pork was pretty tasty. There were a lot of caramelized carrots and four pieces of broccoli. It could have had more broccoli but I am not going to nitpik, it was too good. We had another pad see ew recently that was pretty mediocre and this one shined like a diamond in comparison. So, Full Moon Thai is a big yes. Sorry I only got one photo. :) Too busy eating.

    I absolutely love the food here. One of our go-tos for takeout. And ordering online is great because its easy to add or take away ingredients - like add more broccoli or no tomatoes, please. The restaurant is divided into a few sections- a counter area where you pick up to go orders and the dining room has been divided into dining and storage which doesn't feel the most comfortable to me. But, the table service is quick and efficient. I ordered the margarita and I will skip it next time. Street parking and bathroom in the back.

    Yellow curry
    Alyssa S.

    I was very disappointed with the food that I ordered here!! The "Yellow Curry" didn't taste right, or look right. The "Orange Chicken" was REALLY dry, and at the bottom of the container there was a bunch of liquid so everything was soggy at the bottom. The "sticky rice" was such a small amount I was very surprised, and then once I put it onto my plate I realized it was EXTREMELY rock hard. I couldn't eat it. I called the restaurant and talked with a lady and the customer service was really good, she was friendly and understanding.

    Chicken Pad Kee Mao and salad rolls
    Aaron M.

    Pad Kee Mao. Definitely my favorite Thai dish, however, from Full Moon, it was just ok. The flavor was fine, but somewhat blah. It lacked pizzazz. It was medium spice, which is what I always get. I'd say that was accurate, but again the dish was simply average. Nothing special at all. The portion size was very good and the ingredients seemed fresh, but I had to add my own sauces to it to give it the punch and flavor I desire. The salad roles and peanut sauce were good though. It had been several years since I ordered food from Full Moon. With all the delicious Thai food options in Portland, it will likely be several years more...

    Inside was clean, bright and decorated nicely.

The kids ate so much and the hainanese chicken was a kid friendly favorite! We really enjoyed the Khao Kha Muu which was similar to an adobo with yummy pickled mustard greens. The meat was tender and marinated so well. The liver is always enjoyable by me and everyone ate the skins which were so crispy! The 2 meals were large and fed all of us well. Please remember to bus your own table!

They have several vegan dishes and we generally get vegan versions of the Evil Jungle with Tempeh, Pad Kee Mao with Tempeh, and the Enoki Mushroom Salad. They also have various vegan specials from time to time, outside of their vegan menu, which have all been amazing and something we keep an eye out for. If you have the time to eat in, you definitely should to fully appreciate certain dishes; but they do an amazing job with doing their to-go orders as well - like frying certain items when you arrive so they don't get soggy from waiting to be picked up. The ambiance is really nice for an intimate or small group meal and this is one of my favorite places to bring people that aren't vegan as they have all been really blown away with the meat dishes they've ordered.

This was the best pad Thai we had with such depth of flavor - not too sweet or oily, just perfect. We also had the pad kra pao, eggplant and tom kha. The tom kha had good flavor and with a thinner broth that I'm used to which was fabulous. The eggplant was so delicious - the consistency was incredible. Not too soggy, just right. I also tried the mango sticky rice. For drinks we had the Thai lemon tea which tasted like Thai iced tea without the milk and lemon added - delightful! We even bought an extra dish to take with us to go. Amazing place. Ambiance is casual. I can't wait to return.
