Loved everything that I ordered here - from the appetizer to the main course. Coming back on my next trip to Wenatchee. Can't miss this.

We had a very nice dinner at Mai Lee Thai! Our group enjoyed salmon curry, drunken noodles, phad mee, and yellow curry. Everyone loved their dishes and the spice levels were accurate. The drunken noodles especially had a healthy amount of sauce which I appreciated. Very fresh veggies! The shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce were very fresh and a great size - they're cut into 4 which was perfect for our group! We had a Mai Thai, glass of Chardonnay, and a mango martini. All were delish! They were out of Thai Tea, or I would've ordered one of those. Shout out to our lovely server, Chloe, who took great care of us and was very sweet. She was attentive and made sure my Mai Thai had extra cherries and that my dish had extra tomatoes! An added perk could be soft, authentic Thai music playing in the background! read more

The good was good but I feel like the dinner rush made this experience a not so great one. Upon sitting it took almost 15 (maybe even longer) to get our orders in (reading timestamps, we sat at 6:17, & got our food at 6:53). Though we don't mind the wait time as much it was a little too long. When getting my phad Thai it was quite HOT and I am not talking about the spice (I got a level 4). The heat of the food made it harder to truly taste the flavors of it and I was quite disappointed. Besides that everything else tasted very delicious:) read more

Mai Lee Thai served good food. Per local, getting the food took a long time due to a staff shortage. We checked out, and the staff situation improved--no longer short-staffed. Food is served quickly after 10 minutes. read more

A few friends and I ordered a few dishes! Ok maybe too many and the waitress was a funny and amazing help. Chloe is the best! The food was great as usual! Tom kha soup, spice level 3 was just right, the fried rice was banging, crispy garlic chicken was to die for, garlic lovers was soooo tasty, drunken noodles so much flavor, teriyaki chicken was delicious and too many sides of white rice we can eat for a week! I love all the white plates and bowls made everything look so good! Lighting was perfect for our girls night out! read more

My fiance and I had dinner here tonight, we got the crab rangoons, pad Thai, and he got a seafood dish. To start, he was served a visibly dirty glass with his beer- we just sat that to the side. The plates that came with the rangoons both had food debris stuck on them- we also sat those to the side. I asked for a medium spice level for my dish, there was zero spice, in fact it was just sweet. He asked for 5/5 level spice, and again there was none. On top of this, ingredients listed for the dish were not served, and the squid in his dish was so overcooked it was rubbery and inedible. The music playing overhead was some sad pop music playlist that just added to the disappointment of our visit. The one, single highlight was the margarita I ordered. That was probably one of the best I've had, so kudos to the bartender. read more

Ideally I wish I could give it a 3.5 star, but more of a 4 than 3. The service was nice and the mountain views inside are really pretty. Prices were reasonable, $16.95 for a large portion of chicken pad thai. We did order some appetizers and I had leftovers with the entree. I wish there were more chicken in the dish as it was pretty minimal, but the sauce was beautiful and delicious! The Crab Rangoon appetizer was really good! My main issue with the place, albeit small, is that they charged a $2 non-cash fee. I didn't see anywhere that there was such a fee with using a card vs cash. It's not like $2 is a big deal but lately I feel like places are trying to get away with hidden fees that just become a nuisance. Please make prices and fees obvious or just increase the entree fee. Overall, I'd definitely return and it's really nice to have a nice Asian restaurant in Wenatchee! read more

Mai Lee Thai - Chicken pad thai - Thai Near Me - East Wenatchee, Washington

Having recently returned to Wenatchee after 13 years in Seattle, we were very happy to find Mai Lee Thai again, albeit in a new location. The banner over their door says it all, the "World's Best Asian Restaurant in 2021" (or at least Wenatchee's :-)". I ordered for Take Out, and Sherrie and I served up easily, two days worth of meals from three entrées: Pad Thai Chicken, Sweet'n'Sour Chicken, and Red Curry Chicken--all three of which came with steamed rice. (See the pics!) The flavor pairings were over-the-top delicious on all three entrées. You can choose your level of spiciness from 0 to 5. I think level-1 is just perfect because all the subtle flavors of coconut, lemongrass, and ginger blossom on your palate. As I remember, the business was started by the mother of the two girls, Mai and Lee. Now, several years later, it appears Mai is running the restaurant. Fifteen years ago, she catered a party at our home--it was a combination of seafood, chicken and spring rolls. Their menu has always been a broad selection of Southern Asian cuisine--not just Thai, but a fusion of several cultures. It's definitely worth the time to explore the whole menu before ordering. This is a a 5-Star restaurant! read more

Mai Lee Thai - Yellow curry & Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - East Wenatchee, Washington

We ordered take-out, my adolescent and teenage grandchildren love their teriyaki chicken. I love Thai food and the panang curry was amazing, ordered 3 stars and it was the perfect amount of spice for me. The staff was so helpful and so friendly, whether dining in or taking out, cannot wait to go again. read more

I would give it a better rating if the portion of their protein in the dishes were larger. The flavors of each dish we've tried were great - but the disappointment of not much meat at all cannot be overlooked. The banh mi sandwiches felt like they had two ounces of meat on them. This is an easy remedy to the problem- if you want repeat customers, they have to leave satisfied and not hungry anymore. read more

Bad service. My server rarely checked on me, and then when I was ready to settle up, I waited literally 15 minutes with staff moving around paying no attention to me, finally after getting up and mentioning that I needed my bill, to learn that my server left her shift, without me handed off to someone. Beyond that, the food was "meh." Cocktails too overdone with simple syrup and the service was generally sub-par. Would not recommend. read more

Portions are fraudulent for the price . Won't be taking food home anymore . The green beans were like a side dish and my Pho was not right .

We frequent this location. The food is always delicious and pretty consistent. We have tried to give the other Thai restaurants in town a few chances, but they're just not as good as Mai Lee Thai. I realize there have been many less favorable reviews, but we have been eating here since their old location, and have not had an experience bad enough to warrant a negative review. Items we frequently get are: Thai fried rice, pot sticker, fresh spring rolls, #21, Phad Thai, and crispy basil chicken, pork bun bowl, and have had the banh mi (really good!). The mango sticky rice is so good too! read more

Wenatchee is on the banks of the Columbia River, where Louis and Clark tracked thru more than 200 years ago. We were looking for a lunch place after morning meeting. Along with Thai dishes, they have pho also. I went with pad tai and other ordered pho. A pretty good lunch. read more

On our journey heading to Wenatchee, we were craving Thai and decided to come here based on some previous Yelp recommendations. The restaurant itself was really nice, well decorated and clean - if you are looking for a cute date spot this might be your jam. Immediately upon entering - we could tell they were short staffed. Just one waitress running around with her head cut off taking phone orders, tending tables, cashing people out.. super frazzled. We sat and ordered a couple noodle dishes the classics such as Pad See Ew and Pad Thai. The food didn't come out super quickly but when it did, it was piping hot and looked really palatable. While the flavors were pretty spot on, pad thai being tangy and sweet and the pad see ew having thick chunks of noodle and a savory soy sauce I couldn't help but wonder why both dishes were so watery. There was a lot of watery scrambled egg type sauce and rather than the noodle dishes being pan fried in a wok - they were almost in a soup like egg mixture. Though I wasn't used to the presentation and un-panfried textures of the noodle dishes - both of the dishes had flavors that were spot on and reasonably priced. For being in the middle of a random kind of rural town, I was pleased to find some decent Thai food. Side note: if you like the spice racks that you ask for with thai food theirs is super salty - the jalepenos that are usually soaked in a sweet vinegar mixture is literally floating on top of salt water.. really bizzare version of this condiment! read more

It's all about the food! Should have taken a star off for ambience but their made in house sauces more than make up. Everything we ordered was fantastic read more

Solid choice! Wenatchee has an amazing array of Asian cuisine, considering its relatively small population.

We went one day at 11am on a Friday. Our mail was fresh and wonderful tasting. The place was very clean and the service was just great. Yes I would recommend stopping in there and getting your lunch or dinner. read more

My husband had Thai curry and I had spring rolls. Everything was fresh and yummy. Good portions too. The ambiance was relaxing and trendy. Paige was our server and she's super nice. When we get back to Wenatchee, we will definitely be back. read more

Mediocre food. All 3 of our different dishes looked & tasted alike. The sauce on each came from the same bucket. Rice was good. read more

So I am going to start with the positives. The good here is delicious. It's flavorful and distinct enough to keep me coming back. It's the service that is lacking. I think they are understaffed sometimes, and it takes away from the dining experience. The last time we went for dinner, the husband ordered cashew chicken, and the cooks forgot to add the cashews. So they literally gave us a small cup of cashews to sprinkle on top, didn't even offer to cook them into the order, and by then my husband was already disappointed. I am willing to go back, mostly because there aren't a lot of Thai options locally, and the as I mentioned, the food here is pretty good, more often than not. read more

I love this place! Great staff and always great food! Love their Tom Kai soup and all curries!

I wish they were more consistent. My wild ginger was just missing something. Chicken satay seemed super dry. Curry was solid and crisphy basil. Wish they had more new items and weekly specials. 8 of 10. read more

Went with friend last night we were all pleased with their meal. Ordered deep fried egg rolls and cocktails, entrees included: red and yellow curries, and Rama garden. Place was pretty busy and they were short staffed, waiters were mixing drinks and cook was delivering food to the tables. Somehow Chloe, our waitress, made it work for us and was very attentive. read more

Flavor is great. Portion size is great although the dishes come with 90 % vegetables 10% meat. Orderd a #35 and got 3 shrimp one bite size piece of salmon and 2 pieces of squid. Very disappointing. read more

Incredibly fantastic food. I was visiting from San Francisco and wanted to find a great place to take my mother out to lunch. Mai Lee Thai rivaled any Thai food I've had in the Bay Area. Also, Carla was as wonderful of a hostess/server as we've ever had. She made our visit extremely pleasant. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place and experience for us. read more

Got the pho Togo. They forgot my broth and the pho broth is bland af. Like drinking salted water. Will never come back

My food was pho was cool, my server was more worried about getting ready to close then to attend us. The Thai wasn't that good. First and last time I go. We wanted to try it because it was closer to home. But they convinced us that it's worth driving across town to V and pho. read more

I visited this restaurant a while back and since then they moved locations and expanded. I enjoyed this venue last time and again this time. I love the decor and Ambience here. Very warm & inviting. The main room for dining and they have a separate bar area. Staff is friendly and efficient. The food is very good! We had the Tom Kha soup, the special-Avocado Curry and Beef Garlic Stir fry. read more
