    Recommended by my friend Tammy who is of Vietnamese persuasion and picky with her dining establishments, therefore I decided to give Pure Thai a go. She was correct, as this hidden gem didn't disappoint. Located in a small strip mall in a modern establishment, it is cozy and inviting to customers. Service was outstanding. We had Kevin who was attentive to our needs. We had the red and green curry entrees with chicken protein.The presentation was artistic and the flavors were just right without too much heat. We have visited numerous Thai restaurants in San Diego, Scottsdale, AZ, LA, CA and Hawaii. Pure Thai easily surpasses the experience of all others. It well worth visiting and giving it a try. Moreover the cost is very reasonable for what you get and experience. Give it a go and let me know your experience.

    The best Thai food ever!! I always order the Tom Kha Ramen dish because it's the best comfort food on a busy rainy day. My husband ordered the Kahri noodles which had wide rice noodles soaked in sauce. He offered me a bite and wow, I may just order that next time! So amazing and a mouthful of flavor!! Will be back here for sure!

    Ultimate Pad Thai
    Jasmine V.

    I was recommended this Thai place and did not go in with high hopes as other Thai restaurants I've been trying within the area have not "wow'd" me. They definitely steered me wrong! I ordered the 2 dishes that I was recommended and was really impressed. Ultimate pad thai: I LOVE fat rice noodles and they made it so well in this dish without over cooking it. I think my favorite is actually the seasoning and the fact that there's many proteins. They do not skimp on the size of the shrimp! Tom yum ramen: The fried wonton is honestly my favorite in this lol. Not the main idea of this dish but they fried it so well and it soaked up the soup nicely. Other than that, the Tom yum is the best I've had within the area but I will say it is on the sweeter side. I'm not the biggest fan of ramen noodles but didn't mind it in this and will probably try the one with rice noodles next! Both dishes were a good portion for the price. I would say if you come with a group, it can easily be family style to share multiple dishes. Parking: it's in a shared plaza and right next to the road so I don't think parking should be an issue. I came on a Sunday at 6pm and plenty of parking! Service: I was greeted right away and they were very attentive.

    Prik King Moo Krob
    Amanda M.

    I think this is probably one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Vancouver/Portland Metro Area. They serve and make dishes that aren't commonly on Thai restaurant menus which I enjoy. I got the Prik King Moo Krob which is Thai red curry stir fried with green beans and they add crispy pork to it. This has some spice to it, I don't think it's that spicy. However, don't recommend it if someone has low spice tolerance unless spice level can be adjusted. The green beans were fresh, delicious with a nice crunch when eating it. It paired well with some peppers and the pork belly. Cause of the sauce the pork belly wasn't crispy but definitely flavorful. I do wish there was more rice for it, at the end I had leftover sauce. I could have asked for more rice I know. The portion size is enough for one meal. The staff got food out to me quickly after I ordered. The restaurant is modern and clean. There's decent amount of parking there too. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes.

    Pad See Ew  Steamed dumplings
    Mata S.

    Ordered pad se ew and dumplings, flavor was not very good. Pad se ew had a fishy taste and dumplings tasted like freezer dumplings. Overall the food just wasn't very good, very unimpressed and disappointed.

    Chili sauce
    Helen C.

    Where do I even begin. This place is overall quality!! The inside has a really nice ambiance as well, very relaxed. I omit certain ingredients due to my food sensitivities and they always make it perfect! I am very picky when it comes to a good Pad Thai and here is where I found it to be that authentic taste. I eat here at least twice a week and recently discovered their yummy chili sauce made in house that is now my new obsession They most certainly deserve more than 5 s Compliments to the chef!! Thank you

    Thai tea and salad rolls
    Samantha N.

    Salad rolls were huge!! She made them fresh. And I got a good amount of peanut sauce to go with! This place is a hidden gem with pool tables inside seems like a fun place to kick it with friends. As for the service 10/10.

    Pure Wings
    Cindy R.

    Pure Thai Cafe provides delicious Thai food and good service. My husband and I asked for medium-hot spiciness for our dishes. We ordered Pure Wings. The wings were HUGE compared to other Thai restaurants. LOVED the dipping sauce! Reminds me of finadene (hot dipping sauce in Guam). Wings were hot and crispy. We enjoyed the Papaya Salad. We liked the tangy dressing, and lots of cherry tomatoes. We substituted brown rice (instead of Jasmine rice) for the Thai Fried Rice. We ordered it with pork. The portion was big, which we appreciated. Plenty to take home. The Pad Kee Mao was with beef. It was more tasty than the Pad Kee Mao we've had at other Thai restaurants. Prices are reasonable. Overall the food portions were larger than the other Thai restaurants we go to. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with location. Pure Thai is in Hazel Dell. The other Thai restaurants we go to, are in Felida, and in Salmon Creek. Pricier areas (re: rent). What would have made this review a 5-star rating, would have been authentic Thai background music. They were playing music by Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello (Señorita). A little odd in my opinion. I appreciate it more when ethnic restaurants play their country's native music. If you love Thai food, visit Pure Thai!

    the interior of the restaurant

    Pure Thai is a sure Thai for me from now on. This review is for take-out only but I would love to dine in next time as the store had a very calm and welcoming vibe. I called to put my order in and they stated 15 minutes and when we arrived the food was ready and the billing process was fast. We had Khao soi and Tom Kha and I can't fault a single thing with both those items . The soup was Rich creamy and beautifully balanced mix of lemongrass, galangal, mushroom, onion, lime leaves and Chicken .I got a medium spice for this one and found it perfect . The Khao Soi was equally delicious and came very well packaged, I regret spicing it down to mild and I would recommend the Medium for most people as I personally found the mild low on flavors. Pricing was reasonable and the food quantity was sufficient for the two of us .Its located in a shopping Centre so plenty of parking outside .

    Pad Thai
    Jennifer D.

    I love Thai food and usually get green curry which is what I got here. It was ok. My husband ordered the pad Thai and that was yummy so we switched meals. Spring rolls were ok. Service was great, brought everything out quick and were friendly. I love the ambiance and was surprised by the modern elegance.

    Came in after work for a quiet bite to eat with my husband. I've seen pictures of the food here so I wanted to come try it. The restaurant is located in Orchards, across from the Shari's and Fred Meyers. The parking lot is small and kinda tight. The staff was really nice and the restaurant was very clean, but small. We were seated right away when we arrived. The menu was pretty big so it took me awhile to decide what I wanted to try. The potstickers were okay. The minced chicken dish we ordered was good. We topped it with a fried egg. The crying tiger dish was alright, I think I expected more from it. The meat was overcooked but the marinade and the sauce it came with was good. I will definitely stop in again to try other dishes.

I would like to comment on the visibility of this location. Since it's tucked away and a spa is in the front I didn't see it and had to turn around. Consider additional flags to add to where you're at because GPS tells us it's right there and it's not RIGHT there. I decided on fish tacos and I couldn't taste the fish. It felt like I was eating cole slaw in a soggy crispy taco shell. Consider deleting this item or improving how you make fish tacos. Too much greens and mayo where you can't taste the fish. Overall food, service and ambiance was okay.

About two thirds were a little overcooked and tough to eat, but the rest were perfectly delicious. ​We ordered our pizza to go and spent the waiting time playing games. The overall ambiance was fun and lively, even though it was busy. The arcade games could us some refreshing, but most were functional, and the pinball machines were great. ​The real surprise was their innovative setup allowing you to pay quarters to play modern console games like Minecraft--that was a brilliant touch! ​ ​The service was truly excellent. Our server was courteous, moving quickly, and even offered me water and other items while I waited without me having to ask--that was genuinely nice. ​I will definitely be back. While some modern upgrades to the arcade would be welcome over time, I'm thrilled to see this place is still busy and thriving!

This time, we arrived around 9A and were seated approximately 30 minutes later in the very well-heated patio area. Our server was welcoming and returned quickly for our drink order. I chose an oat-milk chai and was not disappointed. For a restaurant presented as a French bistro, I was surprised that there wasn't a single quiche on the menu. I almost ordered the BLT, but I wanted to try something different, so I chose the west coast salmon benedict with provençal potatoes and butternut squash. The hollandaise was tasty, but the benedict itself was mixed for me. It was served on a sliced croissant, which sounded appealing but wasn't sturdy enough for the toppings and quickly became soggy. Thankfully, I had removed the top half and eaten it separately. I was also expecting the thin slices of smoked salmon you might find on a bagel, but instead received a salmon fillet whose smoked flavor was barely noticeable -- perhaps the Hollandaise overwhelmed it. The butternut squash was delicious and outshined the potatoes by several miles. I wish I had asked for an entire side of squash bc some of the potatoes tasted stale, much like McDonald's fries that have been sitting around for a few hours. My daughter ordered the risotto cakes and eggs, which also made me question the "French bistro" identity, since risotto is Italian. SIL had the corned beef hash. Hubby ordered the chef's omelet with a side of bacon. And the grandbabies had pancakes, bacon, and eggs. My family makes it very obvious when food is delicious: lots of nodding, happy sighs, "You need to try this," or completely cleaned plates. Breakfast did not produce any of that. As our server was preparing to close out the tab, we asked for the dessert menu so we can sing happy birthday to one of our grandbabies. We ordered the Versailles cake and a pavlova. The Versailles was the definite winner. Suddenly, there were the yum sounds and the "You need to try this" comments. We all agreed that its light texture and coffee chocolate flavor were wonderfully similar to our beloved cappuccino mousse cake from Schubert's Bakery SF. It wasn't overly sweet, and the velvety dark-chocolate ganache was delicious. I enjoyed it so much that I went home and immediately searched for a Versailles cake recipe, only to discover that "Versailles" apparently isn't an established French dessert, but La Provence's name for its chocolate sponge layered with vanilla, coffee, and dark chocolate mousses. The pavlova was enjoyable, but it inspired nowhere near the enthusiasm of the Versailles. Between the polenta, risotto, pesto, burrata, mascarpone, tiramisu, avocado toast, corned beef hash, Benedicts, and conspicuous absence of quiche, I left wondering how much of the actual menu is French. There are certainly French ingredients, sauces, pastries, and techniques, but the overall experience felt more like a Pacific Northwest brunch café with French and Italian influences than a true French bistro. Would I return when visiting our daughter and her family? Not on my own accord. If the family chose it, I would definitely go, but I would adjust my expectations and not think of it as a French bistro, order an oat chai, request extra butternut squash, and save plenty of room for the Versailles.

My heart skipped a beat, it was like finding out there's a secret stash of candy hidden in your grandma's kitchen! So off we went, and I entered the establishment with the kind of excitement usually reserved for unearthing treasures. The service? They were as friendly as a puppy in a room full of squeaky toys!
