    Thai Thai Iced Tea - Vegan
    Diana C.

    The sandwich I had was really good although quite messy. Maybe a bit too much sauce in there especially for a to go order, but it was very tasty so worth it. The Thai tea was probably too sweet and I wouldn't order it again. The service was great - they asked if I wanted my tea now to drink while I waited or just with my meal when it was ready, which was very considerate. The space is bright and fun with maybe 10 or so tables. There's a lot of construction going on outside but don't let that deter you!

    Visiting from OOT and found this gem. Cute spot with great service and even better food! Yum!!

    I've heard great things about Pink Bee, so I gave it a shot. We walked inside. I noticed all the windows gave the place a bright atmosphere, and the tables had cute little vases with flowers. There is a Kiosk to order from, so that's what we did. Sat ourselves down. The worker was friendly and asked what kind of silverware we preferred (chopsticks vs forks). The Food: Chicken Pad Thai (medium spice level)- The portion was bigger than other places, which is a big plus. The flavors were strong and delicious! Only complaints are: I really didn't taste much spice, and it was a bit too sweet. Nonetheless, I would definitely come back for this. Pad Kee Mao (high spice level)- The flavors were nice, and vegetables seemed fresh with that crunch that means it's perfectly cooked. However, again, this really wasn't that spicy. The noodles were a bit too soft and broken apart, and it needed more of that basil that's usually in this dish. There is a shelf along a wall with condiments that you can use, so thankfully we were able to add the spice needed to make our dishes really shine. I'd like to try more dishes- there were some things on the menu that looked unique. For example, I saw that there are sandwiches with fillings such as panang curry- whaaat?! Sounds good.

    The owner Jen always does an amazing job with the exotic and inventive variety of flavors in her food. Strongly recommended for the A+ quality service in regards to the friendliness, ambience, and taste of such fine dishes as the Pad See Ew, Pad Thai, Tumeric Noodles, Mango and Sticky Rice, and a personal sweet favorite of mine is their specialty pink bee honey iced tea. If you are visiting Seattle or happen to live in your area, definitely give it a visit. Fairly priced and extremely delicious!

    I love going here! All the dishes I've tried are amazing. The Bamee Gai Yang and Turmeric Noodles were both so delicious. Exceptional service! Highly recommend.

    Wow!! We've walked past this place many times and we finally stopped by for lunch. From the looks it's very unassuming, the food was the real show stopper. Very friendly service, didn't have to ask for a thing as it was brought to us before we could even ask. We tried the fresh shrimp spring rolls which were the best I have ever had. Delicious fresh herbs and served with peanut sauce and an amazing green Thai chili sauce. The mango juice was dressed up nicely. We ordered the yellow curry sandwich and the chicken satay sandwich. Both sandwiches packed a lot of flavor but our favorite was the yellow curry. It had a nice coconut sweetness to it that balanced so well with the fresh veggies. The table next to use had a few plates of food that looked and smelled fantastic. Can't wait to try other items!

    Have you ever had a day where you need a big strong hug BUT you really just want to be in your own head for the day and not talk? Well that's me today, and sitting in Pink Bee as the jazz plays, enjoying sticky rice and basil pork.... The chef singing softly in the kitchen, that's just the hug I needed to make my day better. Sometimes food is about hunger, but today food is about comfort here at Pink Bee. If you need a food hug, I recommend coming here and slowing down for some soul food.

Every one of them were cooked perfectly with thin crispy crusts. Toppings were yummy and just enough of them. The potato one seem to be a tiny bit heavy with rosemary, but otherwise great.

The crust was somehow both burnt and soggy, the cheese had the structural integrity of a rubber bath mat, and the toppings were rationed like we were in the middle of a national emergency. Every bite raised new questions, none of which I wanted answered. And the price. THE PRICE. For what I paid, I expected a pizza with a sommelier, a personal assistant, and a handwritten apology from the chef. Instead, I received a lukewarm circle of regret that looked like it had been assembled during a fire drill. I've eaten frozen pizza that had more personality. I've eaten airport pizza that had more dignity. I've eaten pizza at 2 a.m. while actively questioning my life choices that gave me more satisfaction. The funniest part is the confidence. This pizza costs like it's exceptional. It tastes like someone Googled "what goes on pizza" five minutes before opening. Would I come back? Absolutely not. I have learned from my mistakes, and my wallet deserves better. Save your money. Buy two frozen pizzas and a bottle of wine. You'll have a better evening and still have enough left over to question why you considered coming here in the first place.

The interior is simple, and an open kitchen is always welcome. The cashier was engaging and helped make the selection(s). Extra points for the genius idea to offer a "shorty " for those of us who are indecisive and customarily eat alone. Great way to try a couple of the options! It was still difficult to narrow down my order. But I wound up selecting their best seller Rajin Cajun and the Michael King. Both had a terrific, unique flavor. Cajun. Zippy combo, with enough mayo to warrant use of 4 napkins. Well toasted bread. The sandwich was a bit lopsided, by which I mean I opened the bread to shift the ingredients around to balance out each bite. Just the right amount of spice for me. King. This was the winner. I had to alternate bites between the two sandwiches to decide which was the best. This one wound up being the flavor combo I wanted for that perfect last bite. The line sauce was bright and punchy. The yams and tofu made me wonder why I haven't been incorporating more tofu into my diet. Great crispy roll, and this sandwich was constructed with a bit more care. No shifting required. Pricing is reasonable, but other sandwich shops with an equally unique flair include some type of side (fries, chips, etc) for the same price. They don't offer a shorty, though, which was noteworthy for me and the reason I'll return. Definitely check it out!

I'm SO glad Other Coast proved me wrong. And I was blown away by what we got. For starters, I asked for a reco. The person behind the counter said the Michael King was super popular among veggies and vegans alike. I'm aways more likely to choose something I wouldn't make at home, and the dry rubbed tofu, roasted yams, and vegan cardamom-lime sauce fit right into that category. We paid, nabbed a table out front, and our names were soon called. Holy heck, those first few bites were just spectacular. What an interesting flavor combo! My only regret is that pickled onions weren't an option -- they would've added a great umami. My total came to just over $16 with tax and tip. We'll be back!
