Seriously the most amazing Thai food. This place is physically a disaster inside which makes the food all the more surprising. Cluttered, random items stored in random places... seriously a folded up treadmill and fan is along one wall toward restroom. Truly delicious though, read more

I'd give this place a 2 star only because their hours are never consistent. I've been there when they should be open only to find that it is closed with no notice on door. I've tried calling with no message on machine that says were closed today due to whatever the reason is. Food is fantastic. One of the better Thai restaurants I've been too. Wish their hours were more consistent. read more

Yummm!!Yummy!!! Love this place and so appreciate Thai food in Chehalis. Currently they are only offering take out, which I wish they would open their seating up. read more

Okay so there are good things and bad things about this restaurant. 1st off, the food is 5 stars. One of the best Thai places i have ever had. I have gotten many dishes here, and I love their peanut sauce. Reasonably priced as well. The bad - They are very rarely open. You have to be a true fan to eat here. Honestly it is very frustrating. Many times you can go there and they will be closed even when the sign says open. Also they are closed on Tuesdays which is hard to remember. The service is also hit and miss. There is a young girl there who seems like she is the teenage daughter who wishes she didn't work there. She always looks irritated, rolls her eyes, occasionally has rude remarks, just overall a bad waitress. However I think this is a bit amusing, and it doesn't really bother me. She's not mean she just always seems irritated. She's obviously very young and is working there only because her parents make her. The other waitresses are fine. If you are looking for a high end classy place with A+ service this is not your place. The decor is also pretty weird and doesn't match but I it's guess unique? I later found out why they are often closed - It is a family owned and operated restaurant. The family lives in Seattle, and has another restaurant with the same name in Capitol Hill area of Seattle. Since all the employees are family and they have such a long commute I can understand why they just close the restaurant anytime something comes up. Annoying but I'm excited to try Som Siri in Seattle. In conclusion - best food but it's hard to get because of irregular hours. CALL before you go. read more

This is hands down the BEST THAI FOOD I've ever had! I moved from Seattle to the country a year and a half ago. Chehalis is the closest 'city' to me. I had driven by Somsiri multiple times but was usually on a different mission than dining. My boyfriend and I stopped in one day to see if it was any good. Admittedly I wasn't expecting much due to it being in Chehalis surrounded by pubs and greasy spoon establishments. I was blown away! The food is FANTASTIC and full of flavor. They actually have a 'real' star rating that caters to my expectations of what the rating in spiciness should be. I've been there several times since and each time it does not disappoint. They also have a decent Pho' which is impossible to find anywhere in the local area before Olympia. I'm not sure I will enjoy Thai food anywhere else after experiencing Somsiri. The only negative I have is that sometimes they are so busy the service isn't the best. If you can be patient, it is definitely worth the wait!! read more

I admit to not being knowledgeable about Thai cuisine, but it's hard to believe there are many restaurants that offer such a wide variety of good-tasting food at decent prices like Somsiri Thai does. I just ate a plate of Yellow Pineapple chicken with fried rice and it was outstanding. Others have mentioned that it's wise to aim low on the desired spice level and I agree. My dish came with a two-star "heat rating" and it was definitelty hot enough for me (a spice lightweight). It's been years since I'd eaten here, mostly because their operating days have been very inconsistent and the three or four previous times I went to Somsiri Thai for lunch, it was closed. That's the only flaw I can think of. Otherwise, the dozens of entrees are generally in the $10-15 range with good portions of food every bit as delicious today as it was the two or three earlier times I'd dined there a few years ago. The restaurant is not in the greatest of locations and is rather smallish, but it's nicely and unpretentiously decorated inside. It's a casual but clean environment, good for lunch or a date, and the album covers framing the menus are a hoot. Our waitress was a very nice young lady who was the essence of Thai grace. The owners are Buddhists and related tracts that make for interesting reading are available near the register. One note: Whoever is waiting WILL be the only front staff on the floor and it can get a little slow when it's busy, so bring some patience with your appetite. Both will be rewarded greatly. While there are more good Asian restaurants in Centralia-Chehalis than one might expect (but PLEASE can we get just one Italian place here???), Somsiri Thai is the best of them and always a treat when it's open. Definitely worth a shot if you're in the area. read more

Their food is great! They loose stars for their inconsistency with their operating hours. We never know when they will be open and that's a huge pain in the butt. read more

This place is absolutely charming. Everything we ordered was delicious- I have to say one of the first things I notice about such a small place is the freshness of the oil - and the tofu satay and spring rolls were delicate and fresh tasting. We had 3 vegetable dishes, and again, the vegetables were carefully cut and not cooked too long, another indication of wonderful preparation. I also really appreciated their attention to detail and presentation. The menus were in old album covers- really fun- the decor was very creative-- cute dishes for the kids. Thai iced tea in a nice looking beverage glass. Pretty bowl for the pho. Overall a surprisingly great experience in a small town. Thank you! read more

Had the beef pineapple curry 2*. Was just the right heat. Mildly spicy and sweet. The Thai iced tea was absolutely fabulous. It was sweet https://m.chaturbate.com/maxeengreen/ milky with good strong black tea. My gf had the cashew yakisoba with beef and it was so good. I will definetly order that the next time we come here. The spring rolls are good but standard fare. The sesame eggplant was crispy breaded and fried. Very delicious. The service was kinda slow, so if you're in a big hurry you'll probably be kinda pissed off. But if you don't have anywhere too pressing to be after your meal, I would definetly recommend this place read more

We stopped on our way home from a weekend in Bend Oregon. Traffic was terrible so we yelped close by eating spots and Somsiri Thai came up. My fiancé had Red Curry, his typical go to Thai meal. His dish was a bit more spicy then his usual 2 star. I had the Cashew Yakisobi chicken noodles. I usually get one star and mine was also a bit more spicy but good. Music was GREAT! We love 70's folk and that is what was playing during our dinner. Good Thai. We would stop again if we were in the area. read more

I'm very hesitant to give a 5 star rating after just 2 visits, but both have far exceeded my expectations. My favorite dish I always get is the Pad Thai. It was the very first thing I ordered when I first tried Thai and while I have tried many other dishes I'm always left wishing I had ordered Pad Thai. Anyway, their is near perfect. The noodles aren't too long which makes them very easy to eat. So far 2/2+ stars has been the perfect amount of spice. I also like to order mine without the fish sauce and that seems to make it extra awesome. :) Definitely one of my favorites in Lewis County! read more

Wicked good selection of rice, noodles, veggies and meat options. The curry was delicious!!! My lips are still burning....

Well I've tried this restaurant three times now and each meal was fantastic! We had the yellow pineapple rice and ramen soup this time and it was all so yummy and fresh. read more

We went for dinner after returning from Mt. St. Helens. We ordered the Basil Fried rice and Pad See Yew and both dishes met our expectations. The food portions are large and 4 level spice can be very spicy. Overall, the service was quick and prompt, food is delicious, large portions and surprisingly not on the pricey side. We will definitely visit this place again. read more

Really friendly service, large portions and good prices.The restaurant itself is a little dingy looking/feeling and it's a maze of rooms and ramps to get back to the restrooms. But none of that deters me from enjoying delicious Thai food, and shouldn't for you either. read more

It was the best pho I have ever had. I will be having it again today. Original and super yummy

A good quite restaurant. The prices are reasonable most of the entrees with chicken are 9 dollars , with beef 10 etc. the ask you for the hot level you want between 1 and 5. In all cases they make it very hot! We visited twice ... But it was tasty. read more

I love this place. It's better than any Thai in Lewis or Thurston. ...............................

My wife and I tried Somsiri Thai for the first time yesterday (12/13/12) on a bit of a whim. We're definitely not food snobs, so you're getting a fairly blue-collar assessment here and we were totally impressed. I had the Yellow Pineapple Fried Rice (sans white onions) and it was EXCELLENT. Really enjoyed the raisins and cashews along with the peas and carrots mixed in with chicken over the rice and flavored with curry. Asked for a 1-2 level of spiciness (nice that you can choose) and it was perfect: Spicy, but not a five-alarm fire with every bite. My wife had the Showering Rama and loved the peanut sauce (something she's always liked about Thai food) set in a separate bowl of mixed vegetables and chicken. Also terrific. She went with a "0" spiciness setting and it was just right for her. You can choose between chicken, beef, shrimp, tofu or soy with your entrees, BTW, and only one of the 79 menu items is priced higher than $9.99. The food portions are large enough that you'll want to box some up for a second meal...quite generous for the price. The only reason I rated Somsiri Thai a 4 instead of a 5 is that Pat, the hostess/waitress who is half-owner with chef husband Peter, is the only server on the floor and you may need a little patience in getting your order if there are more than a few people there. Given the quality of food, the nice atmosphere plus Pat's own graciousness (she's a nice Thai lady who really works hard at making sure you're happy), the wait is MORE than worth it, but I wanted to be honest. I can't wait until lunch to finish my Yellow Pineapple Fried Rice (don't think it would work well for breakfast) and we'll DEFINITELY go there again. Two thumbs up! read more

Ok, ok, I have to update my review after trying this place out...we happened by, hungry, again on a Saturday night and this time they were open! I would give 3.5 stars if I could...which is good for me. Spring and summer rolls=perfection! We'll be back just based on those. Pad Thai (I always order this on a first visit to a Thai place) was pretty good, had a homemade twist. Mr. had the cashew somethingoranother and it was tasty as well. Tom ka next time. Very busy, obviously family run, decent service. Cute little separate rooms for larger parties, decanters of water is a plus and super cute fun cups for the kids to drink out of. Will try it again for sure. Glad we have it a shot. read more

Somsiri Thai - Quaint downtown location. - Thai Near Me - Chehalis, Washington

Delicious food, and an amazing atmosphere. If you're looking for some authentic Thai cuisine, this is the place. And I've seen some people have complained about the wait. If you're going to a restaurant where the chefs are cooking up real, good, food you're going to wait a bit longer. It's not like you're at an Applebee's. read more

Passing through Chehalis and was craving some Thai Food. Walked in around 8 on a Friday night. Wasn't very busy, maybe 4 tables total. Many options looked good but I got the #56 with shrimp and also added peanut sauce. My husband ordered the orange chicken. I was amazed at how fast our food came out to us! Maybe 7 min total waiting time? I know it was cooked fresh though. Food was so delicious and filling; we took our left-overs to-go. Shrimp was large, flavorful and fresh, not chewy. Vegetables were large, crisp and and noodles had good flavor. My husband's chicken was a bit rubbery but he still liked it. Clean, large portions and fair pricing. Would definitely go again. Also good prices on beer. read more

Somsiri Thai - Thai Near Me - Chehalis, Washington

This is absolutely one of the most delicious and authentic thai restaurants! Our family drives from Olympia (an hour round trip) just for their curries and pad thai. The food is incredibly fresh and owners are friendly. The peanut sauce is rich and curries are perfectly spiced. read more

So glad to have found this place through Yelp, and happy we stopped by on our way back home from a road trip! Quaint little place, clean and well kept, far better than just an average restaurant. The service is very friendly and although seemingly understaffed, they hold their own and move fast. The menu has an incredible variety of genuine Thai items, all fairly priced, especially for the portions and the great quality. Best of all, after a great meal, you can enjoy a delicious Bubble Tea! I have nothing negative to say about the place... would definitely return if in town! read more

Came here on a whim (we stayed at Grey Wolf but didn't feel like eating the buffet) and couldn't have been more pleased! The food was very delicious and the lady who worked there was so nice to us. We had Tom Yum soup (great seasoning, a bit too salty but good). Pad Thai (pretty authentic and tasty), Pad Kee Mao (good), Basil Fried Rice with seafood (good), Papaya Salad (spicy but good). The only downside is that the Thai iced tea was a bit sweet but that is passable. Would definitely come back again! read more

Best Thai food around! They cook everything perfectly! The menu is wonderful and the service is great! For appetizers I recommend the soft rolls & crab delights! The eggplant is also a new favorite. You can't go wrong with the Thai Iced Tea - SOOO GOOD. And the coconut soup with seafood (I order it all the time and can't remember the name).. But it's the first one under the soup category. You wont be disappointed with this place! read more

I'm so glad I ventured around Chehalis and found this place. The food here is incredible. Honestly they have some seriously talent Thai chefs in the kitchen. Chicken pad thai had a heavy peanut sauce flavor I really prefer. The laarb gai salad was very fresh....probably one of the better larb I've had. We also ordered the beef yellow curry, which was fantastic. They are so friendly and the ambiance of the restaurant is simply amazing. The restaurant is so clean and has a lot of nice decor. It's probably the most upscale restaurant you'll find in town. read more

Traveling North on I-5 we looked up a new spot to try on Yelp. Fun menus made from old record album jackets and the Beatles welcomed us to this small town authentic thai bistro. Ordered Pad Thai Chicken a classic dish done to perfection my wife and 14 year old easily split that dish with a 2 of 5 on the spice meter, Tom KA Shrimp Best We've had. I went with Thai Beef Salad and it was amazing. Beef was quality steak with a Smokey sear that danced on my tongue with fresh mint, lime, onion and heat. I took it up a notch on spice 3 of 5 wow ! the main course I ordered the Showering Noodle with Chicken... peanut sauce perfect on a bed of Spinach ... I barely made a dent huge portions and will have for lunch tomorrow. Thai iced coffee a must ... can't wait to come back ! read more

When in the Blue Blazes of Hell is this place open? Yelp says open, and we get there to finally try it and it's closed! Come on People update your times!!! Looking forward to trying the food here!!!! read more

We had pad Thai and yum yum noodle soup both were delicious! It is a little bit on the slower side so if you are in a hurry might want to rethink read more

We eat here monthly as a family and love not only the food, but the friendly and timely service as well as the ambience. My personal menu favorites are the tasty Tom Kha soup along with the spring rolls with peanut sauce. The fresh mint lingers after each bite . My daughter regularly orders the Phad Thai which is always a hit. My son is happy to explore the menu with something new each visit. We highly recommend this establishment for superior Thai. It is definitely one of the best Lewis County has to offer. read more

Delicious spice and flavor! Lots of fresh veggies in the stirfrys and fantastic peanut sauce. Don't go when you're in a hurry as table service is on the relaxed side! read more

If you are looking for a great Thai experience, this is it. The food is great and the staff is super friendly. I eat here regularly and have never had a bad experience. The staff takes the time to get to know their customers. Always a friendly word. read more

I would like to give more stars, because their food was really good. But, they never seem to be open when their signs say they'll be, and it's almost impossible to get ahold of someone when I call. When we finally caught them while they were open, service was a little slow, but as I said, the food was very good, and we weren't in much of a hurry, so we didn't mind. It's a good place to eat when they're open. read more

BEST Thai I have ever had. I have tried many Thai places and this one beats them all. Great service and atmosphere. We will be back.

Love the pad Thai and panang. Their pad won sen is also yummy. It's a fun atmosphere. Our only frustration is all the times we've discovered it to be closed at times that didn't make any sense. read more

The food is amazing. Very authentic and spicy not like most Thai restaurants. When you say 4 star be careful because they don't mess around. I would have given them 5 stars but you never know when they are opened. I went on a Friday night at 6:30 closed. This has happened a few times when you figure it is prime time to be opened they are closed. The open and close whenever they feel and it can be frustrating when you have Thai craving. I hope they become more consistent with there hours so I can give them 5 stars!! read more

Customer Beware! Do not order takeout food from this place! The beef salad I just ordered was made with barely cooked gristle that even my dog refused to eat. The shrimp soup contained quantities of severable inedible ingredients such as hard pieces of bamboo and ginger. Had these items been served to us at a table in the restaurant, we certainly would have sent them back to the kitchen. Not possible here at home, however, and judging from the rave reviews here about their food, I can only guess that the cook probably recognizes his/her takeout customer as a good way to dispose of any unusable inedible food on hand. read more

Great, quick Thai food. Easily accessible from i5. Jungle noodles and Pad See Ew were fantastic. Caution: spicy.

Very good food but was quite a wait. They get a lot of call in to go orders and tend to worry about those before the folks who are actually in the restaurant. Our food was very good though, I have no complaints there! Very fresh and excellent flavor. We will absolutely be going back! read more
