The food was great! We always come here for a late night dinner if we're feeling to eat something of Asian cuisine. A lot of Asian restaurants are closed early but I'm glad this one opens until 4 am! We got the Yellow Curry, Spicy Fried Rice, Tom Yum Soup and our appetizers: Spicy Chicken Wings and Fried Tofu. Everything tasted delicious.

this is our late night after a night of dancing and drinking spot because of their late night hours! the food always hits and its kinda fun to see the strangers you were dancing with 10 minutes ago walk in and eat with you!

Ordered on Uber Eats and... how can I say this? I'm white and could have made better, fresher Thai food. Pad Thai was essentially only noodles. Where's the chicken, bean sprouts, peanut? Spring rolls were frozen store bought. Soup and curry bland AF. The the soup wasn't even cooked. The potato and other vegetables in the curry were completely raw. Wow. Clear that whoever runs this place has no understanding of food. Order screams: Doesn't give AF

Tom Yum Soup
Reed L.

ordered tofu tom yum via doordash -- food was prepared and delivered promptly. i will say though, i wish the broth was less sweet and was sad to see i only got 1 tomato wedge. for the price point , i had hoped for something with more flavor. perhaps dining in would yield a different experience, so ill check it out anyways if im in the area

9/12/2024 - We were super hungry after catching a show at the Funhouse Lounge right down the street.

I did not know about this spot until I began doing delivery driving and then I discovered this is here, that they would always have my orders accurate and fast plus that they seemed pretty empty yet open till 4am! My friend I go out with more is a vegan so I love going to places where we both have a lot to chose from. We were both excited. At first I thought the guy behind the counter was abrupt but I suspect he is just resting angry face since he even said goodbye specifically to us when he was leaving after he was off and another person clearly was taking over for the later shift. He was super helpful though answering our many questions since nether of us had been there before. We ordered way too much food knowing we were going to be swimming in leftovers so we ordered good items for that. They have a specials board so I ordered heir orange chicken from that as I did not see it on the menu. I am super picky and this was some of the best orange chicken I have had. Their coating is so good and unique - perfectly crispy... And then the sauce is that perfect not syrup yet also not an assault on you with citrus like some are. I was amazed! I also got the shrimp salad rolls and their chicken satay. It was all delicious with gloriously tasty peanut sauce. And I had crazy leftovers I am still working through. I do have to also say that their prices are great too! Their location is excellent and I have not ever had an issue grabbing parking though I also have not been there during what could be an issue. Revolution Hall is directly next door and I feel that could be a challenge or parking BUT they are easy enough to get through food delivery or even just order and pick up!

Pad Kee Mao Tofu

You have to love that Sunee is open very late. Service you receive depends on who is working, but it's friendly enough for late night. There is always plenty of people picking up take out and patrons eating in. The decor is pretty with many traditional items. The food, decent and tasty. I always find Thai food on the more expensive side especially for vegan. The pad kee mao is good and tofu is cooked well.

Enjoyed the Spicy Chicken Wings, Pad Ga Prow stir fry with beef, with a Singha beer! Highly recommended! Wonderful location, across the street from a great microbrewery & Gastropub Grand Fir Brewing as well as Revolution Hall!

On the corner of Stark and 14th, Sunee Thai offers both Thai and Lao dishes. I got takeout recently and enjoyed the meal. We got noodles and a curry. Most items can be made vegetarian. They ask how spicy you want the dish on a scale of 1-5. I don't remember what I chose but I do remember thinking it wasn't as spicy as I'd like. So maybe add 1-2 on top of your initial thought. Staff was friendly during our brief interaction. The restaurant was empty since I arrived at the start of dinner service, but the atmosphere was pleasant. Looks like they have late hours, which we all know is rare in Portland! If you've got the late night munchies, this could be a great option.

It's definitely a nice spot for dinner. The service was great, and our food came out pretty quickly. You order at the counter first, and they give you a number to take to your table. There's complimentary water and utensils available on the side, which makes everything pretty convenient. You can also choose to sit inside, outside, or get your food to go. We ordered the pho with steak and brisket, and it was delicious! We also got the vermicelli with pork, which had a lot of flavor. The portions are pretty generous, so the vermicelli would be great to share. Overall, we had a great experience at Luc Lac.

Let me tell you, if they had this place in Seattle, it would be poppin' for sure. Loved the decor, and the service was amazing. We were a party of 8, and they did the most to get us seated. They even combined two tables for us without too much wait. We appreciated this so much! This is one of those places where you order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table, although they also seat you. So you wait in line to order, and then you wait a little longer to get a seat. The menu is on a huge, lit-up billboard behind the counter, so you'll see folks crowded in that area trying to read it. The food was alright, no one was particularly blown away. I got a pho, and I would say it was okay. I think you come here more for the vibe and scratching that craving than for out-of-this-world food/flavors. The music is good, the servers were all super friendly, and it's a great vibe. Fyi, there's mostly street parking.

Kor Moo yang, grilled pork shoulder with tamarind sauce, Moo Ping, Tub warn, pork liver with spicy sauce, and Tom Zab, spicy soup with pork ribs. All were delicious!! And we had some leftover for dinner. lol They also have a boba tea downstairs called "boba cat tea" which we will definitely try it next time.

It seemed promising when we arrived because the space is very cute and clean, with lots of greenery. The umbrellas and piano make the space look unique and enticing. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. We ordered the non-fried spring rolls as a starter. They were not good and I regretted my choice. They were wrapped sloppily and seemed to lack filling. It reminded me of a moist sock sliding off of a foot. The veggie filling had a nice flavor, but the damp draping roll wrap grossed me out. I wished I could just toss them in a deep fryer. We decided to share the coconut curry noodles with tofu, and the okra dish, and we both added one samosa on the side. The curry noodles were shockingly bland. I did not taste curry at all, only coconut. Not a speck of curry flavor. It was weird, because the noodles were yellow...my brain kept expecting flavor that never came. It screamed for salt, and there was none on the table. It also left a bland, chalky coating on your tongue. The tofu in the dish was not good. The pieces were cut all different sizes and it had a musty bitter flavor that I was not expecting. I couldn't even eat it. I was also surprised that the dish lacked vegetables...it was garnished with raw red onion, cilantro, and some horrible dry store-bought brand crunchy noodles. I was shocked by how much I hated that dish. The okra dish was a little better (it actually had some flavor) but it was very one-note and I would not call it good. The main flavor I got was smoked paprika, which was kinda nice but overpowering, as it tasted raw and needed to be cooked through more. The tiny potatoes were raw which was really not cool. There's not much I hate more than undercooked potatoes. The eggplant was also undercooked and spongy. The okra was ok. Even the rice was not good. It was mushy and came in a pathetically tiny portion served in a small cup that was barely half full. The samosas were probably the worst thing we had. I wouldn't even call it a samosa. It was a tiny greasy triangle of mostly dough. There was a single pea and a tiny smear of overly-salty potato filling. I was shocked at how bad they were. My wife didn't even finish hers even though it was tiny. It was that bad. Worse than the food was the stupid robot waiter. We had to push a gross (obviously smeared and dirty) button to make the robot go away after bringing our food. And we could tell that the waitress was also annoyed by it, as she had to walk it through the restaurant like it was a toddler taking its first steps. So dumb. This was the worst and most expensive lunch I have had EVER. It is rare that I try a new place and don't like anything I try. It was kind of shocking, actually. I will never be back.

The Cashew Nut Chicken was prefect. It was a good spice level that was still very flavorful, and not melt you mouth. The chicken was tender, the vegetables were tender, but not mushy, and the rice that came with it was prefect to soak up the sauce. It was a perfect size for someone who is pretty hungry for lunch, but doesn't make you feel like you need to take a nap afterwards. The Tom Kha soup was very good as well. Flavorful, filled with tons of mushrooms and chicken. It was a large amount to that I was able to save for the next day's lunch, and looking forward to that today. They have a wide variety of items, very affordable, and while you wait for your food you can step inside to the bar and have a beer and watch 1 of 4 or 5 Tv's. Recommend this place if you are in the area, and if you ever head to a Blazers game or a concert and are hungry this would be a prime spot to stop before your event.

But when the lady in the food cart handed my order to me, she apologized because it was so hot. She handed me a tall plastic container stacked a carton of rice on top and gave me two napkins. The container was so hot to the touch that I thought I would drop it. I had a concert to go to at Moda but i tried cooling this down for 15 min. I thought it was cool enough but it wasn't. I was pretty hungry and took a bite and still burned my tongue because it was still scalding hot. I'm disappointed about that as I suffered the rest of my night at my event at Moda. However, the price was reasonable and the red curry was darn tasty, and it was a great portion size. It took about 20 min before it wasn't scalding hot but because it was a tall narrow container, it wasn't going to cool quickly. Why couldn't they have given a proper disposable bowl. That would have made it safer to eat and I probably wouldn't have burned my tongue. 20 min is a long time for food to cool down. I think this was a one off incident, but I want to post this to let the owner know, they shouldn't be serving scalding hot curry to their customers. Watch the temperature of your foods, please. I still loved the flavor so much that I will come back, hopefully when I don't have an event at Moda and hopefully it isn't scalding hot. I tried to take a pic of my dish but it came out blurry unfortunately as my smartphone camera was having issues, so sorry no pictures.
