Amazing food and a good vegetarian options. I can't wait to go back to try more things on the menu, but what I did have was absolutely delicious. And for me being a vegetarian and my husband eating meat and for both of us being satisfied as a big deal. read more

Beef Penang curry, chicken pad thai, and seafood fried rice ~$60 A little on the pricier side and not the "best" Thai around but it does the trick and doesn't disappoint. Overall decent flavor and worth a try! We started going here when we moved into the neighborhood and it's on our docket when we're in the mood for Thai. Picked up today and staff member was incredibly friendly. read more

Royal Orchid - Beef Penang curry, chicken pad thai, and seafood fried rice ~$60 - Thai Near Me - Renton, Washington

An authentic thai that has been in the neighborhood for a decade. Fried rice has the best char taste and gives a flavorful punch. Yum Woon sen ( glass noodle ) salad has a nice balance of sour and spicy. Hoy Jor is not a common dish we can get in other thai places so we were excited to tried it. Crispy on the outside and juicy in the middle. Price is steep for 6 pieces so maybe we will go with stuffed chicken wings next time. Service is very warm and quick! They also have a spacious parking lot in the back. Will be back to try other authentic dishes! read more

The last time I went to this restaurant was about 9 years and had a very unpleasant experience with the food I ordered. So yesterday, I decided to check them out again because if they had survived the covid, then most likely they have improved their cleanliness, if you are interested scroll my last review of this place and you will understand why I never went back. Nevertheless, I dined in and ordered a spring roll, chicken basil fried rice and Phad Thai. Their Thai food is by far the best have had anywhere but Thailand, I have tried so many dishes and they are all so good and always consistent, even after 9 years, it tastes exactly the same and it melts in your mouth. The service is unbelievably good, they were friendly and even told me that she remembered me from a decade ago. It looks like they done some remodeling to it and it looks spacious. But the place is still a little cozy Thai gem that people need to try out. Give it a shot and you won't be disappointed. read more

Such amazing flavors! We love this restaurant so much and have enjoyed everything they have tried!

I have been ordering pad see ew from royal orchid for about a year now and it's the best I've ever tasted. I have tried MANY pad see ews from many different restaurants and nothing compares to here. They are also all very sweet and kind. If you ever want amazing Thai food, I 100% recommend royal orchid! read more

Having lived in the area for almost 30 years, I've seen Royal Orchid but never thought to give it a try. The other day I was craving Thai food and finally decided to give this place a try. I ordered the Thai iced coffee, Thai Basil, and the Special Noodles. The Thai iced coffee tasted like watered down milk with a hint of coffee for color, The Thai Basil was more onions that chicken. The Special Noodles was noodles with a few pieces of pork on a bed of spinach topped with peanut sauce. The peanut sauce was this congealed gross blob that was on top and did not mix very well into the noodles. I also ordered my dishes three stars and both dishes lacked any spiciness. It was plain. Service was okay but slow. I don't think I'll be going back. read more

I gave it 3 stars because the food still taste decent. Not sure what happened today. :( couldn't take the photo for pad see ew cuz I gave it to my nephew. read more

Ok, if you have food allergies, don't eat here. They don't take in to account any sort of special requests. I know this because I tried to order several things with no bell peppers and they all came with bell peppers fml. BUT if you want the best fried spring rolls ever, you have to order from here. Also all of their food is really good! Ok I've only had the orange chicken, special mussels curry, green bean delight, and crab fried rice. But but but it was all really tasty, albeit the Inclusion of the bell peppers that I asked to be omitted. Also, if you order an entree here, be aware you need to order rice separately. I'm telling you, PSA order rice one the side if you want rice. Good food and good price. Don't be special. They won't do it. read more

I liked the reviews & decided to try it. It looked nice inside as I picked up my order. All is tasty and generous, the 1.5 spice level on my orange sauce w veggies & soft tofu was dialed in just right. The only wish I have is somehow I missed that the entree did NOT come with rice !? Wished I'd known to order a side of rice. Zoinks. Fried veggie rolls, cucumber salad & thai ice tea all delicious. I would return here, thanks for a nice meal. read more

Royal Orchid has been my go to Thai spot since living in the area. It never disappoints!

Pre-Covid this used to be one of my go to lunch spots! They have the classics like Panang Curry, Papaya Salad, Phad Thai & Mango Sticky Rice. Best of all they give you free soup and it hits the spot. Service is always friendly and restaurant was kept nice and clean. They have a parking lot so you dont have to worry about finding parking on the street. I used to come here with my coworkers and order a bunch of dishes family style. We LOVED the Phad Thai, Free Soup, Crab Fried Rice and veggie dishes! I have a serious sweet tooth so OF course I couldn't pass up dessert. We ordered the mango sticky rice and it was a perfect little portion to top off a delicious lunch. Mangos were ripe and sweet and the rice was extra sticky and coconutty! Don't forget to try their thai tea its one of our favs! read more

I don't hear much about this place but my oh my is the food amazing. I would even go as far to say it's some of the best Thai food I've ever had. The restaurant is a hidden gem and can get pretty busy with takeout orders on the weekend. My favorite items are the red curry, chicken wings and fresh rolls. Everything always taste perfect every time I order. I definitely recommend this place for delicious Thai. read more

We went here to meet a couple of friends who live in the area. Great food and very friendly service. Beautiful ambiance as well. Worth a visit! read more

Fried rice was on point, customer service was amazing. Overall great, I would definitely recommend!

Came in on Sunday afternoon for lunch and was surprised by the fish tank near the entrance. We were seated right away and the server was very welcoming and friendly. Ordered the pad see eew, pineapple fried rice, and fried chicken. Everything came out to be delicious. We also tried the Thai Ice coffee which can sometimes be a hit or a miss depending on the restaurant, however this one was perfectly smooth. read more

Phad Kee Mao : I placed 2 orders of Phad Kee Mao on the phone. Talked to a nice gentleman and told him I wanted 2 orders of Phad Kee Mao but please tell kitchen 'NO BROKEN NOODLES' like before as I had bad experience with them about a year or two ago (that's why I never went back). He said 'ok'. Sure enough, came home to find THE SAME PROBLEM as before..BROKEN NOODLES! Come on, is your kitchen slacking and don't want to take time to peel noodles are are these noodles NOT FRESH from freezer? You can do better! If you want to be lazy, don't offer this on your menu! read more

loved the ambience and the food we had was amazing. I forget what the special was called but I've never rice as flavorful and yet so toothsome. Was fantastic. Look forward to returning and trying other things off the regular menu in the future. read more

What a great Thai experience. I pass this place almost everyday on my way to work and never really thought to try it until my husband decided he wanted Thai take out for dinner. This was close to work so I called in my order. They do not have an online ordering system on their website, but ordering online was fast and simple, despite not being able to see a menu. They said 15 minutes, but I probably waited closer to 30minutes, which is understandable because they were crowded. The inside is nicely decorated for a truly authentic Thai experience. We ordered the appetizer sampler, the drunken noodles with shrimp and the crab fried rice. All the food was good, and the serving was decent. Pricing was a little higher than I expected, but again not having an updated menu really didn't help. I really liked the drunken noodles, and appreciated the size of the prawns! Great food, great service,! I'll definitely be back read more

Royal Orchid - Entrance - Thai Near Me - Renton, Washington

Good solid Thai food! We measure the overall quality of a Thai restaurant by their peanut sauce, fresh rolls, and pad Thai. All three were stellar here. Our sever recommended the sunny stir fry as well and that ended up being our favorite of the evening. If we lived closer we'd be regulars! Ordered 2 stars and it was darn spicy. Glad I didn't go for 3. Keep that in mind when ordering your spice level. read more

This review is for those like me that are not a huge fan of Thai food. My wife on the other hand LOVES it! So, in order to make her happy, I have to "tough it out" on occasion. Thankfully we found Royal Orchid! (I swear we have had it delivered every weekend since we discovered this gem!) This is one place we both whole heartedly agree on! Now we haven't explored the menu completely, but if you are with people that want Thai food, do your best to steer them to the Royal Orchid. I have TWO suggestions that will get you through it! #1 - Sizzling BBQ Beef w/ Basil sauce - Now the thinly sliced beef comes on a bed of veggies, but the sauce that comes with it is soooo full of flavor, it should be bottled. It is unbelievably tasty. Not spicy at all, just super flavorful! Since we get it delivered, I usually pull off the beef, the broccoli and pour the sauce over the whole thing. IT. IS. AMAZING! #2 - Holy Basil Fried Rice - We order this dish to enjoy the next day. I wish I could describe the flavor, but I am not sure I can! It is just the lightest basil flavor, not too much, not too little. It comes with a choice of protein, but we usually get chicken and ask for extra chicken. Just so you know, it is big enough for two people to enjoy. You can't go wrong with either of these choices ! read more

Solid 3 stars. This is a neighborhood Thai place, probably family run. We tried their pad kee mao and pad prik king. For this type of place I would have expected it to be a bit cheaper. Entrees start at $11.95 for chicken, pork and tofu. Beef is $12.95 and on up for seafood. We ordered 3 out of 5 stars on both which is supposed to be medium but they were more like 2 stars. The noodles were nice and chewy on the pad kee mao but I disliked the raw tomatoes. The carrots were also too soft. The chicken was tender. Good flavor. The pad prik king was the worse of the two entrees. The carrots were too soft and the green beans were undercooked and really crunchy. It would have been easier to eat if the beans were cut. Usually I do not see this dish with full length green beans. The beef was tough and dry. The dish is really salty too so I'm glad we ordered white rice to go with it. Overall, for $30 after tax it just felt a bit too expensive. The portions were not large either. Glad we tried it but we won't be back. read more

The food was amazing! We went on a Saturday night, and there was an hour wait. We were exploring the areas around the restaurant when they called 10 minutes later, and let us know our table for two was ready. The service was excellent! The food was fresh and made perfectly, without cucumbers and mushrooms just how I like it, I would highly recommend this place for a date night. Although, it is a busy restaurant, it did not feel crowded due to the partitions within the seating area! We'll be back! read more

restaurant 3.5stars chicken pad Thai 4/5 spring rolls 3/5 veggie fried rice 3.5/5 I got the vegetable pad Thai with chicken added which was good and the portion size was good. Slightly above average. The spring rolls I thought we're good but because how heavily breaded they were my girlfriend disagreed. There are better spring rolls at other restaurants nearby for sure. The veggie fried rice was delicious and was cooked perfectly with the right amount of vegetables. The basil rice was well seasoned. the restaurant was good but i would rather go somewhere new, will try again some day but not sometime soon. read more

Worst Thai Food in Seattle area! Papaya salad tasted like it was rotten and smelled really bad - definitely not made fresh as they claim. Pad Thai was dry, sticky, under cooked and flavorless. When we called to notify the restaurant they said that ordering from Uber Eats will cause the food to become stale. Terrible food - I will never order from them again. read more

I came here with my family recently and had a great experience! Heads up: maybe they toned it down for me because I'm not Thai but I ordered maximum spiciness and it wasn't very spicy. All of the food we ordered did have fantastic flavor. I enjoyed everything, but what stood out the most was panang lamb. It was absolutely fantastic. They also put a little candle in my sister's desert for her birthday! We had great food and service and I hope you do too! read more

Don't be discouraged by the outside appearance and surrounding neighborhood, the restaurant is quite nice and clean inside. Also the food...Soooo good!!!! Literally everything I've ordered here over multiple visits have been delicious! Recommend: Phad kee mau Stuffed chicken wings Tom kah If you go here on a weekday evening it'll probably be empty but on a weekend it's surprisingly very crowded! Service is also great BUT if it's crowded and they are understaffed it can be easy to be missed but don't be afraid to politely speak up to your waitress and then they definitely refocus back on your table. read more

Ok! If you live in Renton or drove by this restaurant....the parking lot is dark and the area is a little skittish!!! So my wife and I wanted some good Thai! This was on our way home so why not!? ( We were suppose to go to Thai on Highlands ) So as we entered, I noticed the "excellent" rating from WA DOH ( Dept of Health! ). Was happy to see that! The restaurant looked like it was updated! Laminated floors, dark brown furniture, a nice clean fish tank at the front! So the menu was, I think, 6 pages of yum! We ordered wonton soup! Yum! Beef Phad See Ew! Angel Eggplant, and crab fried rice! So the wonton soup was really good! It had noodles, which my wife liked! Wonton pieces, about 8?! Spinach and the broth a little salty but yummy! Mmmmm! I like hot so I put some hot sauce! Mmmmmm! The angel eggplant! I like it because of the red & green bell peppers, oh yah the soft eggplant! Also, mmmmm!! Crab fried rice....hmmm!? Honestly the crab fried rice in Thai Kitchen in Bellevue taste a lot better but that's just me! Plus $16.00 bucks for a small plate of fried rice, dang! I like my rice!!. The Phad See Ew beef was ok! I Added hot sauce which made the food a little better! I was trying to figure put that there was a little sweetness in the Phad See Ew?! So we ordered desert and got the mango sticky rice! Good and yummy!! The service was good. Ambiance-casual! Waiter was attentive and accommodating to us! Thank you! I'll come back but it maybe awhile! With the price of the crab fried rice they could afford more lighting for their parking lot!!! read more

Nice hostess that greeted us. Decor is different from what's presented on the outside, and it is very clean on the inside. Neighborhood seems scary especially the parking lot and surroundings. I probably would not be able to come here during the night. However, food is delicious. I ordered the chicken pad kee mao and dh ordered chicken basil fried rice. Lots of fresh veggies, which I enjoy. Not drenched in liquids or sauce, so that is definitely a plus. Hostess was also the server/waitstaff, and she was very attentive. My water was filled at least 5 times. read more
