Kumar V.

This place has better ambience that what I expected looking from outside. Really artistic and rooted in Thai culture. I tried one of their lunch combo and I just say I left pretty satisfied. I also like the cold coffee tea which was a very pleasant fusion. The red curry was tasty, the dumplings were okay. Service was pretty quick. I don't think I had to wait for long and the server also checked on me pretty frequently. Maybe they thought poor guy dining alone

Sri Racha Noodle
karthik

A decent Thai food in Kirkland Food : 3.5/5 1. Ultimate platter :4/5 A mix of chicken satay , prawn roll, crab wonton and spring roll served with peanut sauce. 2. Sriracha noodle with beef : 4/5 Very juicy and super tasty noodle. Perfectly cooked with right amount of salt and spicy. We ordered 4* spicy but it's not that spicy. 3.emperor noodle : 2.5/5 Looking at the presentation it was yummy. But frankly it was mediocre taste. Lil disappointed. It's part crispy and part saucy like chopsy style noodles . Overall all good quantity was worth the money Service : 5/5 Very good service and welcoming Ambiance :4/5 Decent ambiance with typical Thai restaurant theme. Parking is plenty in mall. Overall 4/5

Crispy Garlic Tofu
Sameer K.

The food was great. The garlic tofu was crispy and tasty. The same goes for the chicken dish (forgot the name) that was preferred. The staff was attentive and polite. We never had to wait for anything. The inside has a bunch of decorative lights. The furniture is wooden with no soft seats if that matters to you. Overall I liked it and will go again.

Menue

I just ordered a dish from this restaurant for lunch and to be delivered to my work place. First of all for the price they charge they give you lots of food. I order the basic S&S tofu lunch special. The sweet and sour are done nicely and taste good, but I was hoping them tofu weren't deep fried. Other than that it was alright.

Thai ice tea
Tony J.

Small Thai restaurant in a plaza near the Kirkland Costco. The plaza was pretty busy on a weeknight. The restaurant was half full. Nice interior with some Thai mythology paintings on one of the walls. Menu is pretty good sized. In addition to the standard noodle, rice and curry, they have good number of specialty dishes and desserts. I got the Thai iced tea for drinks. Very good, and quite sweet. For entree, I got the drunken noodles with beef and level 2 spice (out of 5). Spice level was noticeable, but not overwhelming. Their drunken noodles are on the sweet side. My friend got the crunchy garlic chicken, which was plated nicely in a pile. It is fried boneless chicken bits and certainly very crunchy. Finally, got the fried banana which comes with whipped cream, coconut ice cream and drizzle of some fruit sauce. Found the coconut ice cream to be the tastiest thing on that plate. Overall bill was $65 before tips. Their prices are not the cheapest, but portions are pretty good.

Pad Thai
Alicia M.

Really yummy Pad Thai! Gotten take out/delivery here a few times as I work nearby. Ordered lunch for my team one day and they all loved it and we're now repeat customers! Lunch portion of pad Thai was huge. Ate about half and I was stuffed! 2 stars was the perfect amount of spice. I also like that they didn't serve with bean sprouts. I'm not a sprout fan and I feel like a lot of Thai places overdo it in order to make portion seem larger. Theirs came with perfectly thin sliced carrots and some purple cabbage. Good amount of peanuts too. Give this place a try if you're looking for Thai in Kirkland.

Tofu Fresh Summer Rolls
Tripti B.

We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service at this restaurant. Very flavorsome with generous portions. The hostess was very courteous and attentive and the ambiance is lovely. It was a great dining experience and we will definitely be back!

Tofu pad See Ew
April S.

I didn't provide a "negative" review, this is an honest review of my experience. I gave feedback, which was generally positive and included praise for the staff and some of our food quality. Sending back the food or requesting a remake wasn't going to change my concerns or opinions. Asking for a refund for food I consumed wasn't necessary, nor would it change my rating that this was not a 5 star experience for Thai food. My friend also agreed with my take, tho she didn't write about it. This app is to help people make informed choices about other people's experiences, and I do my best to be honest and fair, which is what I have done here.

Amazing Thai food with rich flavors and fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are very welcoming and attentive. Highly recommend the curries and noodles - absolutely delicious!

It was basic, not anything to rave about but definitely not the worst I've had in the area either. The food needed more flavor, more garlic.

I don't see gluten free items marked on the menu it just says gluten free available upon request. Do you have a gluten free menu available online?

Hello, the items available for gluten free are all the noodles and the entrees, the fries rice and all the curries. Specialty menus and heavenly beef and specialty prices… 

I've seen some of the pictures and the food looks good. I'm curious of checking this place out, do you know if there's Vegan items on the menu?

Yes, we can do vegan on most of the dishes daily. We use vegetable oil and have tofu and vegetables options for most of everything. No animal products for vegans we absolutely understand. Please come visit us

Came here for Seattle Restaurant Week and this ended up being really, really good…read more The calamari was ridiculous good way. Super tender (without losing texture), especially the tentacles, and the olives were so soft they almost just melt in your mouth. The sauce was so good we basically wiped the plate clean with bread without even thinking. The porcini risotto was fascinating. First bite had me wondering if it was a little to salty, and then it just... opened up. Turned into this really nice earthy, savory, slightly sweet thing. Kept getting better the more I ate. The seafood pasta carried that same sense of layering. It's not just "seafood flavor," but a combination of natural sweetness, umami, and brightness that made each bite feel complete. Our waitress Jennifer was super friendly and made the whole experience really easy and comfortable. We chatted with the owner, Michele, who mentioned he ran restaurants in Italy for 23 years, which honestly explains a lot. He suggested swapping our Aperol Spritz for a Campari version so it wouldn't be too sweet, and he was absolutely right. It paired beautifully with the food and kept everything feeling clean and balanced. Honestly, we're a bit spoiled when it comes to cocktails (we spend way too much time at Kro Bar), but even then we both felt their drinks had real thought and intention behind them. We ended the meal with limoncello, which felt like the perfect reset.

This is definitely a review about the service. I live in the area and I frequent places right next…read moreto this restaurant and I want to order from it more but my last couple of experiences have been tainted a bit because when I visited there a few months ago, there was a young woman working there who has long dark hair and is on the thinner side. My friend and myself walked in and asked her for a table at the host stand. She asked if we had a reservation and I said no, and she immediately acted strangely and almost in a defensive way, and gave some strange glaring kind of look. The restaurant wasn't very busy at the moment and just had a couple of tables. I was very surprised of her reaction. We were kind of confused by this, and then we were seated and had dinner and then had some strange interactions with her in the restaurant during this time. She continued to give glaring looks and acted in an angry and reluctant way if we asked for anything such as a water refill. It's been months since that night, but we haven't forgotten it. Then we decided to give the restaurant another chance recently, and she was working, and we were seated at a table by another person, but she followed us to the table while we were being seated , and she then grabbed the tablecloth from the table next to where we were being seated, and she pulled the it off quickly and effectively whipped me with the tablecloth. She didn't seem to notice as she stormed off. I got the worst feeling about being there after that and we were debating whether to just leave. She was not the one who waited on us, but she proceeded to come back into the area of where we are seated and never smile, or look at us, but do things with the items on the table next to us in a strange way. It almost seems like she was listening to us talk. My friend and I had a horribly weird vibe which I've never experienced before by a service person at a restaurant. We both agreed we'd probably not return there which is unfortunate. We love the location and the food. I would suggest to the owners to reevaluate who has customer facing roles in your restaurant. It's a hospitality/service-oriented business. Treating friendly and paying customers like they're an enemy is not the best approach.

Wow, what an awesome surprise it was to discover this place. I regret not having done so sooner…read more Went on a Sunday evening to meet family friends. Sat outside in a beautiful covered space with plenty of heaters and enjoyed the rain tapping on the roof while dining. The service was amazing, friendly, willing to answer questions, all you could ever want. But, the star of the show was absolutely the food. Starting with the birria tacos that immediately stirred up memories of my times in CanCun when I was younger. I will be going back for lunch this week just to have those tacos again. The rest of our party had ribs, steak, sliders, pasta, and oysters, everything was perfect. High quality ingredients, perfectly cooked, well balanced flavors, some delicious twists.. 10/10 WILL go again.

The good: Amazing flavours. Everything we ordered was very very tasty !…read more The bad: Pretentious attitude and menu designed to nickel and dime you at every corner. Examples: $14 kids sliders, however no fries, but you can add them for $8, would you list a kids sliders for $22 , you wouldn't. Nice trap. $16 steam mussels shareable. However no bread, but you can add for $4. How are you supposed to eat steam mussels without bread or fries?. It's a fundamental part of the dish, as Belgians! Oops sorry, I forgot, they charge 3.5% for paying with credit card. Well done kitchen . Mgmt and front staff left a lot to desire.

Even with a reservation, we did have to wait a bit, but it was Valentine's Day, so totally understandable given how busy Italian spots get. Parking was pretty convenient with spaces both in front and behind the restaurant, and if those are full, it's close to the Totem Lake area so there are other options nearby. The ambiance was definitely unique--lots of mannequins, motorcycles, and a sort of roadshow vibe. It felt fun, a little quirky, and different from your typical Italian restaurant. Service was good overall, especially considering how busy it was. Our server was attentive enough and kept things moving smoothly. We started with bread and butter--nothing particularly special, but still enjoyable. The garlic herb compound butter oddly felt nostalgic and reminded me of childhood. For appetizers, we got the meatballs, which were hearty and flavorful. For my entrée, I had the seafood pasta in a wine cream sauce and really enjoyed it. There was a good amount of seafood--not super crab-heavy, but enough to get a few nice bites--and the sauce itself was light and well-balanced. My husband ordered the chicken parm, which he said was good but leaned a bit on the bland side. Overall, it feels like a solid neighborhood Italian spot. Definitely a place we'd come back to when we're in the area.
