Best pad kee mao in Portland. It's very hard to find a place that makes it in this style. All of the appetizers are amazing.... I do prefer the restaurant food over the food cart, but both are great. read more

This Thai restaurant is absolutely charming! The décor is cute, cozy, and quaint, making it a wonderful place to enjoy a meal. The atmosphere was one of my favorite parts of the experience. The service was a bit mediocre, and our food took a while to arrive. However, we were with family and friends, so it gave us extra time to enjoy great conversation while we waited. I ordered the Penang curry with shrimp, and it was hands down one of the best I've ever had. The flavors were incredible, and you could tell the food was prepared with care. It was absolutely worth the wait. The only downside is the parking. You'll need to find street parking and pay the meter, which can be a little inconvenient. Overall, the amazing food and inviting atmosphere far outweighed the minor drawbacks. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to coming back! read more

We've been checking out Thai spots all around Portland trying to find the best spots. Thai bloom came with high reviews, and I'm always looking to try Kao Soi noodles at any Thai places I checkout. Came for early dinner so the restaurant was fairly empty. Quickly sat and ordered a nice spread. To drink some Thai teas and a spicy cosmo. For starters- coconut prawns, edamame, potstickers. And for mains- pad Thai, Buddha delight and of course Kao Soi. Everything came out quickly and was very fresh and flavorful. We had also ordered the fried calamari appetizer but they had forgotten and by the time the mains came we reminded them and cancelled that order. Kao Soi was good but not my favorite I have had in Portland. But still great food and popular for good reason. read more

Been here three times, this is a good place with good service. Most of the dishes here are delicous and well presented. Just don't order the fried rice, it's not a typical Asian fried rice. The rice was dense, soggy, and drenched in too much sauce, making it overly heavy. It lacked the light, fluffy texture and smoky flavor that a good fried rice should have. read more

Hungry for Thai food this place had a spot open right out front, like it was meant to be. Upon entering the restaurant which was very clean and had great aroma we were promptly greeted and seated. I ordered the special of the day a fried rice with shrimp and various sides. Our orders came out fast hot and fresh , very tasty and completely satisfying. I do recommend this place the ambience and great customer service along with the food and very reasonable prices. Thanks for your time and happy dining. read more

Thai Bloom! - Shrimp fried rice - Thai Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Thai Bloom! is a nice and modern restaurant located in Alphabet District downtown. After shopping, my friends and I came across Thai Bloom! for a late lunch before heading home. We arrived at around 2pm and there were only a few other tables full. The restaurant is quite spacious with both bar and table options. As other Yelp reviewers have noted, they have an extensive menu that includes many unique dishes like crispy duck and Khao Soi as well as favorites like pad thai, pad see ew, and pineapple fried rice. Their prices are on the higher side (with their most popular dish, crab pad thai, priced at $26), but most dish portions (espeically their rice and noodle dishes) are GIGANTIC and can easily feed two people. They also have weekday lunch specials, but we were unfortunately there on a weekend and so this was not an option for us. I ordered the PAD KHEE MAO (approx. $17 plus tip) with chicken. They don't ask for spice stars here, but they will bring homemade hot chili oil and paste upon request. I have to say that this pad khee mao was very different from any other pad khee mao I've had in the past as it was very saucy and didn't have any tomatoes. The sauce was also different (in a good way) and reminded me more of a slightly creamy pasta sauce than the usual vinegar and soy sauce. The vegetables consisted of green onion, peppers, and onions, which were quite good, but I wish the dish was a little less heavy on the onions and included broccoli or some other vegetable instead for more variety and texture. The chicken was moist and they were quite generous with the amount! As noted above, the portions were HUGE and I had to share some with my friend to finish it as it would've been enough food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for me! Service was okay. Our waitress was friendly and they brought our food out piping hot. However, it took a while for them to bring the bill and ring us all up at the end of our meal and so we were just sitting there for a while. Note that there is an automatic 18% gratuity for parties of 6+, which is fair. The interior and bathrooms are clean, so no complaints there. Overall: 4/5 for food, 3.5/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere read more

Staff was great. Food was not so great. I got the coconut soup, but it tasted more like lemon soup I was happy that I ordered the small for eight dollars because it wasn't worth it but my friend ordered crab pad Thai and I tasted it. It was OK. read more

Absolutely delicious Thai food. We got the pineapple curry and crab pad thai. Both entrées were super flavorful and very filling; we both brought leftovers back to the hotel. Service was friendly with the location in Nob Hill, a nice area with plenty of shops and nearby amenities. read more

Ambiance: 7/10 casual sit down place. Service: 8/10 server was super nice, helpful, and patient Food: 6/10 this was a dish I would order again but wouldn't recommend getting the beef with it. The beef is slow cooked and offers a darker flavor than the light, warming flavors of the curry. The curry was super thick and creamy and the veggies were delicious especially with the cilantro. Next time I'll get the chicken but all in all a good dish read more

Spicy chicken wings were phenomenal! Best wings I have ever had; crispy on the outside but juicy. And the sauce was an amazing contrast of sweet and spicy. The drunken noodles and pad Thai were also wonderful. Service was amazing! Very attentive, answered all our questions, and checked in often. A cute spot with outside seating right in NW 23rd. Highly recommend! read more

We went for Happy Hour. The highlight is the service. Super friendly, attentive and present. Our favorites were the edamame, drunken noodles with tofu and tamarind margarita. We asked for everything to be hot spicy across the board and it was still manageable The pad thai was a bit too sweet and the thai fried rice didn't have much flavor to it. Price was the only reason why I brought it from a 4 to a 3. Their happy hour prices are now as much as the full menu price in other nearby decent thai places - but with half the portion Their normal price is almost double for the same dish or curry, and I don't think the food nor the ambiance is worth that even with the service. read more

Very nice staff. Extremely attentive. The servers refilled our waters 3-4 times without us needing to call them over which was a nice change compared to other restaurants. They had no issue splitting our bill 3 ways which is always a plus. I ordered the Yellow Curry (with tofu) which had a mild flavor. The tofu and veggies were much harder than I like and the rice was mushy. The noodles my friends tried (Drunken Noodle and Bangkok Noodles) had better seasonings and tastes but were not anything spectacular. The observant and polite servers were appreciated but the food was underwhelming. Especially since the restaurant is on a busy and popular street, meaning there are many good dining options just steps away. read more

Thai Bloom! - Yellow Curry (Tofu) - Thai Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Love Thai Bloom -- been going for years but just now getting around to a review. Some of the tastiest Thai in Portland. They are a bit on the pricier side ($17-$24 for an entree) but otherwise everything is outstanding. The eggplant stir fry in particular is superb and I don't even like eggplant. Highly recommend their happy hour and any drink from the bar (they have strong pours!). Popped in on NYE and they had lovely holiday decor still up and put NYE head accessories at every table! Very festive! The service is consistently very attentive and the staff are all very friendly. Edit: updated to add happy hour menu!! Just stopped by again & had a great time :) read more

Thai Boom should be the name of this place as the flavor of the dishes pack a punch. I really loved it. Service was great and portions were good. We had the: Drunken noodles- 4/5 (spicy and flavorful) Tom Kha soup- 5/5 (and you have to get rice with it) Thai Iced Tea- 5/5 (companion drank half of it before I could get to the photo) Plenty of seating during lunchtime. It was quite busy for a late lunch at around 2 pm. Going to the bathroom is a bit tough since you need a code to get in. Luckily they were nice enough to help me with the code. The bathroom was clean. This place hit the spot with its flavors, service and portion size. read more

It was my first time at this location a couple weeks ago for a friend's birthday. It was a large party, of about 20ish people, so we were given a private room with a $100 deposit that was to be applied towards the bill at the end. As part of the first half to arrive, my friend ordered a glass of wine that was forgotten about and had to remind the server once everyone else received their drinks. 20 people is definitely a lot, so there is some leniency from the group, but I feel like the server did not even try to remember anyone's orders and resorted to announcing the dish upon entrance into the room and waited for someone to claim it. One server was definitely not efficient for a group of our size. For an appetizer I ordered the crying tiger, which says on the menu "tender, marinated slices of flank steak lightly grilled" but it did not come out lightly grilled, more so dry and overcooked. Another person at the table ordered the dish medium rare for it to be served with no pink at all. For my entrée I ordered the basil fried rice with chicken. Portions were big but the rice was mushy. My friend ordered the signature boat noodle soup that I found very oily. Another friend ordered tom yum soup that came room temperature and another friend said they saw it on a table outside of the private room when they went to the restroom and still there when they came back so it must've been there for awhile. I don't recall anyone loving their meal. There is a cutting fee for cake but I unfortunately do not recall how much. With a party that size, the check was not able to be split and the server had to be reminded of the $100 deposit that was to be applied on the bill. Gratuity was 22%. All in all, there are better Thai restaurants in town and it would not be my first choice to come back here. read more

Thai Bloom! - basil fried rice with chicken - Thai Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Came by for an early dinner after walking around the International Rose Garden. It was late afternoon so the place was mostly empty, so we were promptly seated. We noticed it was happy hour so we decided to take advantage of the cheaper prices. We got the papaya salad, pad thai, drunken noodles, and the crying tiger steak. The papaya salad was good and tasted fresh but was on the sweeter side. The pad Thai was the same. It was flavorful and the texture of the noodles were good, but it was a bit on the sweeter side. I asked for the drunken noodles to be extra spicy, and it was actually pretty spicy, which I really enjoyed because most places don't make it spicy enough for me. The drunken noodles were my favorite dish out of the dishes we ordered. The crying tiger steak was nice and tender, and the tamarind sauce that it came with went well with it. The steak didn't have any sear or crust on it, which would've made it amazing, but it was still tasty. Service was good and quick, which is nice and expected during non-peak hours. The dinner prices are on the higher side, so I'm glad we were able to take advantage of the happy hour menu. read more

Very good food. We enjoyed pretty much everything we got. The green curry had a little kick and was a good classic thai curry flavor. The chicken satay appetizer was tender and had a great peanut sauce. The crying tiger had a nice tangy sauce. We also like the chicken fried rice and the beef pad see ew. Staff was really nice all around and very attentive. We also appreciated the air conditioning since it was pretty hot outside. read more

Honest review, this place was OK but not great. I had the khao soi, while my gf had the pad Thai. I would rate the khao soi at like slightly below 4/5, but the pad Thai was a huge disappointment. The noodles felt undercook and were bunched up together. Was lacking the classic pad thai flavor too. Might go back for the khao soi, but definitely not for the pad Thai read more

We normally go in search for Duck, however we were distracted my the Winter Specials. OMG, the Bangkok Noodles are to die for! The smoky glaze on the wide noodles is amazing. We must return soon before the menu changes. We also had the Pumpkin Curry with Beef. The vegetables were cooked to perfection, crisp without being undercooked. Indoor seating, the tables are spaced apart for social distancing. During the time we were there, the restaurant started to fill up. read more

23rd location. Parking nearby w Parking Kitty App. Happy Hour Saturday at 4 on Rose Fest weekend- not crowded. Good decor and clean bathrooms (code needed). Great service. Server asked us if we wanted spices to add- good tasting. Split tempura and HH spicy chicken w basil. Both tasty and hot. Came out fast. Two Mai Tais. All for $51+ tip. Would go again but don't live close- may try other locations. read more

My brother and I hit this place up before the Timers game and the service, food, and atmosphere were all excellent! It was warm out (finally), so we got to sit at an outside table and watch the traffic and the people rush by while we enjoyed a leisurely dinner. Our server was quite knowledgeable about the menu and recommended the Basil Fried Rice. I was looking for something light and summery (while still delightfully spicy) and this did the trick! "Medium spicy" had the perfect level of kick, where I could definitely taste it, but didn't have to take breaks. Overall, I'm excited to eat here again and try some of the other tasty sounding items on the menu. read more

Fast. Friendly. Consistent. This is probably my fourth or fifth time going to Thai Bloom and the food is always tasty, the servers are always extremely nice, and the service is always timely. Although there's no shortage of great Thai food, in Portland, Thai Bloom for me, is a great go-to, local place that's in a great location (without being as pricey as some other options around city). Point being, I just came back from happy hour, and my partner and I ordered veggie spring rolls for starters, Pad Thai (and another vegetable dish, that for the life of me I can't remember), and it totaled a little over $30. For everything! Even better, there's never a wait to get seated and you can get in and out in less than an hour. Or, if you want, you can certainly stay longer and have a few drinks at their bar. Plus, because it's on 23rd you can easily have after-dinner tea, coffee, or a random conversation with a total stranger within minutes of here. You choose! ;) read more

I like this place in general- good food, good location. But today when I went in there was a 1 dollar discrepancy between the menu price and what I was charged. When I raised this with the server they said they had changed their prices. I get it, inflation is a thing, but if you update your prices it should be reflective on the menus and transparent to customers. They didn't honor the menu price even after I flagged the issue which was disappointing. read more

Honestly the crab pad Thai is the best thing I've ever had in my life!!
