    Chicken Tom Kha (top). Green Curry (bottom).
    Ravi H.

    My favorite Thai food. Their Tom Kha is the best I've ever tasted. Exceptionally creamy and flavorful. Love their pad Thai and curries as well. Have not been disappointed by a dish yet. It also doesn't break the bank, and most dishes are right around the same price. They also really know how to spice things up, so ordering a 4-5 star dish will actually be pretty damn hot. Only positive experiences with the staff and the ambiance is nice, although I've never dined-in there.

    I got this for takeout, and it was pretty delicious! The portion size is good--classic where I can eat the whole thing if I'm really hungry, otherwise it definitely is good for 2 servings! :) 2 stars wasn't too spicy, so if your spice tolerance is mild-good and you like spice, i'd suggest 3 stars for sure. My only critique was that it was a lil more oily than i'm use to, but still delicious! Yummy noodles, yummy sauce, and im always happy to have the fried green onions in there. would recommend if you're ordering lunch takeout!

    The food was great. I called for a pick up order and they said that my food can be picked up in 10 minutes. Fast and delicious! They also offer lunch special shown at the door (I attach a picture) They also mention that their Google website got hacked so be aware (see partial of the picture attached)

    Ordered take out here for a quick meal. The food was done quick and spring rolls were hot and crispy when I received them! It seems this restaurant's customer base is largely takeout-- there were no dine ins when we were there (I don't remember seeing if there were actually places to sit tbh) IMO pad see ew is the same in most places. I do think this place's spice scale is a little higher (I always get 3 stars/medium and this one seemed a bit spicier than other places I've been to). I also felt it was a little less flavorful than what I've had from other takeout restaurants. The spring rolls were crispy but essentially only filled with cabbage and noodles, so a little disappointing.

    Food was absolutely delicious, perfect spicy rating was accurate for what you ask for, fresh, service was amazing I got my water refilled at least 3 times, kind and sweet lady. Price was great for how delicious food was. I really enjoyed their Thai tea as well and they don't overfill it with ice so you can actually enjoy the drink than just a few sips, I really enjoyed this place and my friend enjoyed their food as well. I will be back!

    Came here during lunch time and loved the lunch deal! This portion were plentiful for the price. We ordered the panang curry and cashew chicken meals which came with veggie pad Thai and salad. - the curry was great! Although i don't think you can mess up this popular curry dish - cashew chicken was delicious and i had ask for medium spice which to me was not that spicy. Maybe i should opt for spicy next time. I do wish it had more cashews to this meal but the sauce was great! - veggie pad thai... this dish was the most unique one of them all. I've had plenty of pad Thais before however the sauce on this was not the same as other place. It was on the sweeter side -- almost taste like it had fish sauce poured over it. It was not my favorite i will say. This place is Covid cautious and street parking. We ended up parking behind the restaurant within a neighborhood zone. Would recommend this place for the lunch specials! I would like to come back for dinner as the menu is much larger

    Great service, hearty tasty spicy food. The price feels like a steal bc of all the flavor.

    Spicy green beans with non-fried tofu - Dinner size, rice included
    Eva M.

    Panwa Thai is on 12th near Seattle University. With lots of Asian eateries and restaurants within a two block distance, Panwa Thai competes perfectly well vs. the many other options. Definitely glad I found this place. I arrived after 2pm on a Saturday and was pleasantly surprised their lunch menu runs to 3pm. So it's easier to have multiple meals and try different things if you so choose. Our food: Yellow Curry with Chicken - Lunch size served with rice Spicy green beans with non-fried tofu - Dinner size, rice included Pad Thai with non-fried tofu - Dinner size, rice not included Their pad thai is the traditional 'brown' version, not the Americanized 'red' version. Thumbs up. Thumbs up on their other dishes too. Next time I'll try to look for chef specials and unusual dishes. Those are always a treat to find.

The noodles were absolutely delicious, packed with flavor. They do spicy on a scale through five, we opted for four out of five for the noodles, I thought we could've gone even one spice level higher. For the curry, we did three out of five, and definitely could've done a spice level higher. The spice scale is definitely catered toward people who like less spicy food, so rest assured three or four is still fairly mild in spice. The quantity of the curry was actually quite small, however, the presentation was beautiful. It was also delicious in taste. Ambience: The restaurant is very ethnic and beautifully decorated. It is a great date spot. It's very clean, and food came out quickly. Service: Our server was incredibly professional and very polite. He gave great suggestions. I really appreciated that he went out of his way and got the spice jars for us to adjust the spice level of our food. Something else that I always give credit for is that they pack up any leftover food that you have. Phenomenal service.

When we were seated they had a full set of children's dinnerware (tray, toddler utensils, bowl) which was very impressive. The servers were all so friendly with our son which was delightful. The changing station in the bathroom was also very nice, with a soft cover, and they even provide wipes and other consumables you might need. The bathroom was very clean as well. Oh and the food is absolutely delicious! The dipping sauces for the chicken were all so good, and the texture of the chicken was perfect, moist and tender steamed chicken. The grilled chicken was also very juicy. We also loved the thai lime tea, a variant of thai milk tea which balances the sweetness with tangy/bitter lime. Very refreshing! We will definitely be ordering takeout/visiting the restaurant again!

    We came to E-Jae Pak Mor for lunch on Monday at 11:40am. We had heard good things about this place…read moreand finally had some time when we were in the I.D. to try it. We scanned the electronic menu at the front, ordered, then got water at the self-serve station. We beat the lunch crowd so we had plenty of tables to choose from. The bright and cheery decor had nice ambiance and the staff were friendly and welcoming. My hubs ordered the Khao Soi Chiang Mai, one of his favorite dishes to order at a Thai restaurant. It was huge and came in a big, wide bowl. He enjoyed the flavor of the yellow curry and building heat of this dish. Make sure to get a steak knife at the front counter so you can cut the meat from the chicken drumstick (if you're not biting into it). Also, if you are a spice lightweight like me, this is not your dish. But if you enjoy spice and curries, you will enjoy this dish. I got the E-Jae House Noodle with chicken and no egg. Wow, their handmade rice noodles were amazing! So soft, tender, and kinda ropey. I loved the texture and taste of this dish. The sauce was light and complimented the noodles, chicken, green onions, and cilantro. It's so great to eat a restaurant dish that isn't too salty or saucy! It comes with a side of chili sauce which I didn't use, but if you like spice, I am sure it was good. We ended our meal by sharing a small order of the Mango Sticky Rice. It was delightful. The mango was perfectly ripe, the sticky rice was delicious, and it was topped with little crispies which we found out later was fried mung beans. A great ending to a great meal. We will definitely be back!

We got the chicken E-Jae House Noodles, with their homemade wide rice noodles and the Khao Soi Chiang Mai with chicken. Their homemade wide rice noodles were incredible. Soft and delicate and not overly sauced. I'm going to judge all future rice noodles against these. Will definitely be back for more of these fresh noodles! First off their take on Khao Soi is huge. It was enough noodles and sauce for two meals for me. It came with one chicken leg (enough for one meal). Make sure to grab a knife from the front counter to get the chicken off the bone. Their flavor profiles are different from other Thai places I've tried. I enjoyed it. We also got the small mango and sticky rice. The mango was perfectly ripe. The small was enough for two people after all those noodles. It has tall windows so the place is well lit and I enjoyed the colorful decor. You get a number when you order and they bring your food to the table.

It sat in a pool of watery liquid and the chicken was chewy, some pieces of chicken had zero seasoning on them. Just do not. We will not be back again.
