This place is exactly what I thought it would be! Great food, great service, authentic Thai cuisine. I was able to run in and get some fresh chicken pad Thai! It was hot, a healthy portion, and delicious. Didn't leave me feeling stuffed nor hungry, just right. Definitely worth a shot if you're near by! read more

Love love love their food, they're very sweet people and my family come here at least 3 times a month. We mostly do take out but I sometimes do enjoy eating in. One suggestion that I have is that they really need to update their prices online as I paid significantly more than what was shown online. read more

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. read more

The service is good. I love spicy food and their 5/5 spicy level is sooo spicy and good in my opinion!

YUMMY THAI FOOD, and affordable food. They are really quick and mostly do take out orders !

Ordered the pad Thai and pineapple fried rice flavor very good for both dishes my only negative was no pineapple in the pineapple fried rice

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! read more

Panwa Thai - Lunch special menu - Thai Near Me - Seattle, Washington

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. read more

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 read more

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! read more

Food is full of sugar! Way too much in comparison to what I have tasted in other restaurants. Also they do not allow to sit down and eat in case you changed your mind about your take out order. That was very strange. read more

This place is a ******* institution. Panwa has saved my life before. Off the top of my head I can think of at least three different times their yellow curry has been there for me in my darkest hour when there was no one else around. I love this place. I love you panwa read more

Best curry panang curry - it was ultra rich, creamy, with the perfect amount of spice. I miss this place already.

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. read more

Great food and great service. Food came out fast. we enjoyed the crab rangoons the most!

I was very impressed with Panwa Thai. The only reason I would knock it down to 3 or 4 stars would be the price for just a to go place but overall it was quality. Good proportions and above average Thai food. I went to cherry street Thai and was so disappointed that's probably why I'm giving panwa 5 stars lol read more

I really liked the flavor of the pad thai! It was a little different than what I'm used to but it was delicious, also I had a big piece of egg and I'm not going to lie it was fried to smitherines but the flavor?!?! The frickin flavor made my eyes big lol. Now the rangoons were STUFFED to the gills! I've never had a better stuffed Rangoon! However due to my taste buds I couldn't finish them lol I tasted a hint of cilantro somewhere which I just can't do cilantro- but if you can I bet you would LOVE these! I ordered through Uber eats so I didn't see the inside or anything like that- but I only waited like 15 minutes and they had my food on the move! It traveled really really well! All in all I will be ordering from here again. read more

It was another Uber Eats night. We ordered the avocado green curry, panang curry, spring rolls, and kyoza. For the curries, we went with the lowest spice and white jasmine rice. Our order was prepared super fast. The food was amazing. The green curry had super large chunks of avocado on top and plenty of veges and chicken... just how we like it. The spring rolls were among the best we've ever had. The panang, kyoza, and rice were also perfectly cooked. Only minor complaints were the spiciness of the curries and the dipping sauce for the kyoza. I wanted no spice or the mildest spice but both curries still had me sweating. The dipping sauce wasn't my cup of tea but the kyoza was flavorful enough to eat by itself. Overall, definitely a great place and we will certainly order from here again. read more

The best Thai food I've had in the city. They've made it so I can't go anywhere else! The crab rangoons and kyoza seem to be made in house and are delicious. I always get the chicken pad Thai and the beef pad see ew. Super tasty. Their peanut sauce is top tier. My friend got the crab fried rice when we went in, and that was good too. They also have a really yummy Thai iced tea. I usually get take out, which I believe is the majority of their business, but when I dined in once, the service was really good too. It is a very casual interior with bright lights and no music. 10/10 and will always go back to support this place! read more

This is my new go-to Thai spot. The food is so delicious, very consistent, and good prices! I've only ordered to-go -- delivery through Uber Eats or pickup through the restaurant website. I recommend the latter if you can, you'll save a ton on fees and the restaurant online ordering platform is very nice. I've only had the pad Thai and curry pineapple fried rice for mains, both are so good I haven't wanted to branch out yet, but I'm sure the other items are good to. Today I tried the Crispy Spring Rolls (also excellent), and I like their Thai iced tea also. Definitely check this place out! read more

Came here last night after a workshop at The Works Seattle. My friend was craving Thai. I was trying to stay away from carbs should of got lower stars so I wouldn't eat my rice but I had to have a little and I like spicy. Originally was going to go with the salmon panang but they didn't have any salmon. Loves the flavor of my curry with basil. Three stars was exactly what I expected nice kick but not so much that it took away from the flavor. Veggies were fresh and chicken plentiful. They forgot my friend's mango juice but quickly brought after he reminded them and they were apologizes more than once. The decor almost looks like it's not finished but it's still welcoming. read more

My friend and I ordered for to-go and we ordered Pad Kee Mao (5*) with Pork and Red Curry (3*) with Beef. They were both a solid 4.5/5. The 5* was actually decently spiced compared to other Thai restaurants I have been to. The Red Curry was a really good combination with the Pad Kee Mao. I personally ordered the Thai coffee and it was alright; maybe a 3/5 since I have had better. Definitely recommend this place! read more

Ordered the pad see ew and Pineapple fried rice. I really like how you can customize the spice level from 0-5. Food was fresh and delicious! Plenty of food leftover for the next day. I ordered takeout and was welcomed in promptly and my order was ready as promised. read more

Ima keep this short and sweet for an important PSA - get the crab friend rice. I ordered 5+ dishes from this place for company catering, and the food was pretty decent for the most part. Crab Fried Rice - GET THIS. For the price and the amount you get and the amount of crab proportioned with the fried rice, it's well worth it. Pad Thai - Wasn't very flavorful to me and felt a bit dry. Pad See Ew - Good sauce amount, noodles had good texture yummy overall. Yellow Curry - Wasn't my favorite. Kinda bland flavor? Usually one of my favorite types of curry, but wasn't a huge fan of it here. Overall, pretty meh/standard Thai food in my opinion, but I really enjoyed the crab friend rice so upped a star :) read more

Ordered dinner for takeout and was really really happy to finally find my thai takeout joint in Seattle. Since there is so many it is hard to compete but I think this place is better than the ones I have tried this past year. We ordered the yellow curry, beef pad thai, spring rolls, and thai teas. We had medium spice for both entrees and I will say that they food definitely has a kick so if you cannot handle good spice do not get medium. The curry was really flavorful and the chicken was soft and tender I would definitely order this again. The beef pad thai was ok the beef was dried out and tough though, however we did order 30 mins before the restaurant closed so this made some sense. We loved the spring rolls they were so hot and fresh with great filling and a crispy outside. The thai teas were very delicious as well! read more

Let me tell you about the this Thai spot. So this is my first stop here in my visit to Seattle. I came in, one person was dining, slow and quite location. We were greeted immediately! They had the dinning area blocked off but allowed us in. As I pull out the chair and take a seat. The chair from underneath near just gives out! No lie, I was laying on my back and the chair alllll 4s laying out. Like splat!!! You ever seen that move Shallow Hal, yeah that's how I felt. "Jesus Christ! What the hell's wrong with this chair? What's this shit made out of, anyway?!" With that being said. We ordered the prawn pad Thai, Yellow Prawn Curry and two Thai teas. The Pad Thai was on point, thin noodles, smokey flavor but when it cooled down it became sweet!! The Yellow Curry was delicious. The curry was full of flavor and with a little kick! Probably one of my top 10 curries of all time...top diez!! The Thai tea were okay. I got the bill and too Ku amaze, no discount lol I know I know I shouldn't be expecting a discount but y'all gave me a faulty chair!!! After y'all had me like Ezal from Friday on the ground!!! Might come back, might not!! But check it out for yourself. Watch yourself tho, them chairs be tricky. read more

They offer a reasonable lunch special. I usually order ahead for pickup and it's ready within 10 minutes. If you get takeout the food will be room temperature fairly fast (including the curry) , but it reheats fairly well. read more

My wife and I decided we were in the mood for some Thai food the other night and couldn't decide where we wanted to order delivery from. Lots of great option, especially since the International District is in our delivery zone. We landed on Panwa and I'm so glad we did. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Panang Curry and the Thai Style Rice while my wife ordered the Crab Wonton and Pad Kee Mao. I stole a crab wonton from her to verify it's deliciousness and it was delicious. The curry had just the right amount spice (the star level match the flavor) and the absolutely adored the Friend Rice. My wife really enjoy the tastiness of the Pad Kee Mao and it's on her "must have" list from now on. I definitely recommend giving this place a try. I think you'll find a wonderful experience just as we did. read more

My girlfriend and I are what one might call Thai Cuisine Connoisseurs. This Thai place blew us out of the water. We ordered the Crab Wontons (8.95), Pad See Ew (13.95), and Panang Curry (13.95). The crab wontons were amazing: the batter on them seas crispy and light, it was a bit strong on cream cheese (which I love), but be aware if you aren't a fan of cream cheese. The pad see ew was wonderful as well, there was the perfect ratio of vegetables, noodles, and meat and had all the classic flavors of this dish. The panang curry really stole the show for us, though. It was so creamy and delicious with so much meat and the perfect spices for me. The peppers were very fresh and crispy and it even came with complimentary jasmine rice (unlike most Thai restaurants). Check this place out, you won't regret it! read more

What a neighborhood gem! Set in the heart of Seattle University, this restaurant scores major points with top notch cuisine, super reasonable prices, ideal location and a service staff that will make you smile with their friendliness, speed and courtesy! I stopped in on a whim after reading a few reviews. I have typically found the best cuisine - especially ethno-centric cuisine, in the smaller restaurants in neighborhoods and small university areas. This holds true here. Menu for lunch has a good variety - I went for the combinations that are all $8.95 with a $1 upcharge foe jasmine rice (I love jasmine rice). I asked the server her favorite and she told me her husband loves Combo B with chicken and peanut. Sold. Spicy? I went 3 on a scale of 5 and could have gone 5 but didn't want to risk it. The food came out fast and hot - perfection and plenty of it. My water glass never got more than 1/2 empty and I walked out for $15 including a $4 tip. This is a very nice little family restaurant and you won't be disappointed! Love love loved i read more

Got takeout for dinner: yellow curry with fried tofu and chicken pad thai. The curry was lackluster - the curry base was decent, but the potatoes and carrots were meh. It also didn't feel like a whole lot of tofu. The chicken pad thai was really bad. Super sweet, and the noodles were all stuck together. Barely touched it. Too bad. With the reasonable price point, I was hoping this might be our new go-to thai place. Oh well. read more

I am literally in awe. I can't even write this review fast enough. I am actually still eating the food from this restaurant as I type this. This review is from an Uber Eats order and so I can't speak to the restaurant in person (but I WILL be coming here for a dine in experience ASAP) but this review can not say enough amazing things about this restaurant!!! The crab fried rice is a MUST! It is by far the best crab fried rice I've ever had!!! The Pad Thai is the perfect balance of sour and sweet. The Cashew Nut chicken is so amazingly spicy and sweet that it's impossible not to eat the entire plate and sauce on rice. I am seriously so impressed with the quality of the food from this business. We will for sure be in to eat in person. Thank you for providing an amazing meal tonight and having such high quality food!!!!! read more

Panwa Thai - Thai Near Me - Seattle, Washington

What I like the most about Panwa Thai is the affordability. Dishes here are all under $10, but you're not sacrificing quality for price. You get a good amount of food and great quality for just $10. We thought the dishes were going to be small so we ordered 3 dishes for 2 people but this was way more food than we needed! As for the food, we ordered the pad see ew (3 stars), pad kee mao (5 star), and the garlic lover. The food here is delicious! I absolutely loved the pad see ew and the 3 star spice was perfect for it. It isn't too oily, had a great flavor and is among some of the best pad see ew I've had, which is surprising for only $10. The garlic lover dish was also really delicious and flavorful too if you like garlic. However, the pad kee mao was unfortunately ruined by choosing 5 star spice. I warn you to not get the 5 star spice as it just tastes AWFUL. Literally the only thing you'll taste is spice and pepper, none of the actual food. I usually always order 5 stars on my thai food and love the spiciness, but when the spiciness completely drowns out the actual flavors of the food, this means they put way too much. Definitely recommend going with 4 or less. The service here was fast and friendly. The restaurant was clean but I kept noticing a ton of little fruit flies flying around our table, and even in the bathroom. Wasn't sure why there were so many in the restaurant but it was honestly a bit annoying to have to shoo them off every few mins. Overall, Panwa Thai gets my vote for best affordable Thai restaurant! Prices here are cheaper than most places while still offering the same level of quality, if not even better. Food here is full of flavor as long as you don't get their 5 star spice level! read more
