I'm so sad to give them this rating. Their service is amazing but the food is really something else and not really in a good way. I've eaten here multiple times because I keep telling myself to give them another shot, maybe I'll like the food but every time I eat here, I am disappointed. The other day I ordered bun bo hue and asked them to make it spicy. I saw my bowl and it was abnormally red like it just came from the devil himself LOL. Usually it's not that red, though. but i had gotten what i asked for. the noodles however were quite unappetizing. they were way too soft that i basically wasted food. the thing that bothered me the most was that instead of using the usual meat they use for bun bo hue, they used the brisket meat from the pho. I ended up not finishing my bowl because I didn't really want to eat it anymore. I've also had their bun thit nuong cha gio and it was alright too. Cha gio wasn't really my favorite and the thit nuong is a little salty (but that's my opinion since we all taste things differently). But every time i order this. the noodles didn't seem fresh, it seemed like it was reheated because of how stiff it looks when you refrigerate noodles. Other than that, the servers always really nice and are patient. I just don't think I will eat here again. read more

Great Bahn Mi and at a great price. Sandwich menu wasn't on their site. Word of mouth got us here. We like the beef, lemon grass and egg sandwich. The regular lunch/dinner menu looks good but haven't tried it yet. read more

I'm always in search of GREAT Pho! My friends Anh N and Huan D introduced me to this "oldey but goody" spot. Stars given for: *************** baby mushrooms and lots of veggies: I love the veggie pho especially because of all the fresh veggies including baby mushrooms... YOU HAVE TO LOVE THAT! =D *****Clean and spacious! *****Convenience in my hood! *****Coolio price! ***Okay service read more

Vietnamese/Chinese fusion spot with a huge selection of items to choose from. Portion sizes are large and prices are reasonable. Tried the pan fried noodles w combination meat and could not finish due to the sheer amount. Wished the seafood was of better quality but was satisfied. They do offer pho and bun bo hue which seemed to be fairly popular. read more

I almost dont want to give this restaurant 5 stars because people will start going here and it will become crowded. Located just a short walk from the light rail, Thien Phat is a great place for lunch or dinner. Their sandwich combos are a great option for just a few dollars. Along with the large assortment of rice and noodle dishes, it makes it a tough choice between pho or another entree. Been coming here for years and love it read more

We came here for some noodles because my friend and I were looking for a spot near his house that will fill us up fast. I ordered the spicy beef soup with egg noodles (#36) and their egg soda. My friend ordered egg noodles with veggies and beef (#45). As for the appetizer, we got the fresh spring rolls with meatballs. Let me just say that the food did in fact fill us up.. But we weren't very satisfied with the taste of the food. My noodle soup went well with the egg noodles, but I thought something else was missing with the soup itself. I have never tried spring rolls with meatballs so we thought we'd give it a shot. The spring rolls were okay, I've had better. I thought the wrapper were not prepared right because I bit into the spring rolls and it was super chewy and I felt some hard spots like it wasn't soaked in water long enough. The egg soda was probably the best thing I ordered. It was interesting, being told the fact that there was in fact raw eggs in the drink.. But it turned out delicious. read more

Pho and a Vietnamese sandwich!! This place has good pho and the best sandwich. I've eaten here many times and plan to go many more. These are the only two items I order but they are 5 star. read more

My partner and I were wanting a Vietnamese sandwich to eat in the park, we saw Thien Phat and decided to try it. Wow. We were so happy once we sat down on our park bench and unwrapped our sandwiches! First off the price was right, two combo pork/chicken sandwiches loaded with yummy vegetables, fresh and pickled alike, for only $13. I thought the sandwiches were big enough to eat half and save the rest for later but I couldn't quit eating. So delicious! Also, I've had quite a few of these Vietnamese sandwiches throughout the years and one thing I noticed is not all places get the bread right. Thien Phat gets the bread right! IMO. It was crispy and crunchy on the outside and not dense and spongy on the inside. It was just delicious French bread, not a hoagie bun which is fine but not for the Vietnamese sandwich. The woman who served us was kind and helpful and made us feel instantly welcome. While I waited for our sandwiches I sat and watched a show with college dancers on the tv in the corner and enjoyed the spiritual ambience of the alter with fruit, incense and the Buddha. The whole experience was just so comforting and I needed that , so thank you Thien Phat. I will return. read more

Thien Phat - Alter reminding me to appreciate life while waiting for my takeout order - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

On of my favorite places to get bahn mi and pho. They have an extensive menu - something for everyone.

The food was not the best. You can find much better Chinese-Vietnamese food at many other restaurants. The instant pho noodles package even taste better than what I just had. There are a great selection on the menu but I have tried several and not really that great. The restaurant is in a convenient location. If you are super hungry and want to get something to fill your stomach. It's doable. The only thing that make me not want to come back here is the service from the server. The service sucks. I have come here a few times. I tried to give the restaurant an opportunity to see if I get any better service. Disappointed :( I would have tipped more and wouldn't mind to stop if I'm hungry and on the road if the service was great. Together bad food and bad service. Yikes :( read more

We're shopping at Mekong market a lot and decided to give this place a try and it was good. The pho soup have excellent great. One thing that I want to see change is their carpets are smelled bad. Needs some cleaning done. Inside is large, great for family and friends if you have big group for lunch or dinner. read more

Thien Phat - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

when to thien phat today but it was closed. hopefully not permanently. hope everything is ok.

Came here as impulse stop while driving visiting family throughout the city. This place has a little bit of everything. So if you're with a group and don't want to just choose pho, rice dishes, noodle dishes, or sandwiches, this place gives you options. The price ain't bad either. Thumbs up for catering to groups and dish options. Staff was really sweet. We lost track of time while catching up and they let us stay a little bit longer. We totally felt bad for losing track, but they were super sweet about it while continuing to refill drinks and check on us. Glad we found this place. read more

Just grabbed quick takeout of a grilled pork bahn mi and a fruit smoothie. Bahn mi was delicious, smoothie a bit sweet for me. Service was good, everyone eating inside looked happy with their lunches. read more

I was basically raised on Thien Phat and now that I'm 21 I can't stop myself from getting a Bahn Mi whenever I'm back in town! The food is of course amazing, price competitive and fair, the staff is so kind and really always makes me and my family feel so incredibly welcome. No place I'd rather eat in seattle, it truly feels like an extension of home! If you're dining in I recommend the crispy rice noodles!! read more

Great food. Very accommodating. Ann is the daughter and order taker. Her mom is the cook. Delicious food! They aim to please. They serve Thai, Chinese, and Vietnamese. I asked for the Vietnamese Me Sow Young. No trouble. I asked for more basil in the papaya salad. Done. Iced coffee. Easy access. Decent portions. Worth a visit- or 2! I tend to go every 2 weeks, sometimes more. I love the papaya salad, Me Sow Young, and the Pad Thai. Have it your way, and go to Thien Phat! read more

After trying to find some close spot to grab something to eat and everything was closed on a Sunday evening,I ended up here. the place was empty only one table with people,the service was nice and fast we got our food very quick,the have Vietnamese & Chinese food :) so you can get the best of both that's a plus...the place is big enough and clean well arranged I would say with a big screen for everyone in the place to see anywhere you're seated. so I got home opened up my bag of goodies,(phad thai,fried spring rolls,and sorry but i forgot the name of the other dish), and started munching,it was tasty hot and fresh !!! i ate twice in the same evening :) and again this morning as i write this review so I guess I'll be coming back for more since is like 5 minutes from home. ipb read more

It's not very often when all BUT 2 bubble tea flavors are fresh! The only 2 flavors in powder were taro and honeydew (avocado wasn't ripe, yet). I came here following the Bridge to Beach Cleanup Event. Thanks to Phoenix "M", I had a great time and met wonderful ladies! I think we all left satisfied with our meals and service. My fresh coconut bubble tea was yummeh! read more

They have Vietnamese and Thai food but I recommend sticking to Vietnamese as the chefs are all from Vietnam! Very good Vietnamese place, one of the best in that area for sure. Can't go wrong with a chicken or pork vermicelli bowl there. It's a very good size portion. They have a tv with football on usually as well as music playing so it livens it up a little too! Service could use some improvement but overall still very good place to eat! read more

Thien Phat - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Wow! Yet another great place for pho near my house. Their broth is great and the brisket was lean and tender (weird, huh?). It was super reasonably priced and the service was just fine. I ordered pho to go so I didn't experience this restaurant in its entirety. I can't wait to come in for a Vietnamese sandwich (to go only and about $2.50 each) and some of the other dishes that looked amazing. read more

It's a Ma and Pa. A strange blend of Vietnamese/ Chinese food with a mixture of all sorts of other things. The food here isn't to shabby, I would give it a 3 stars, but the thought that this is mom and dads shop , owned by a family, i'm throwing in an extra star. Prices are ok, a bit high I think for what is offered, but maybe rent is expensive for them. Ill return and get the combo meal, it's a good value. P.S. I would never get pho at a place that doesn't smell like Pho. and this place doesn't smell like PHO read more

We like this place because: 1) It's pretty close to our house. 2) It's pretty cheap. 3) The food is tasty There are closer, cheaper, and tastier pho places, but they fall down in at least one or more of the other two categories. The pho itself is good, though I've probably had better broth at a few other places. However, there's been nothing to complain about regarding food quality. Plus, the place is pretty clean and owners are friendly and attentive. Can't go wrong here. read more

I needed 45 bahn mi and I needed them fast. Who did i call? Thien Phat, (thanks to a friend who took pity on me when I told her my dilemma and suggested this place.) 15 pork, 15 tofu and 15 chicken sandwiches were ready in no time. I'm not fool enough to believe that they didn't despise me for ordering so damn many sandwiches, but they maintained a relatively cheerful attitude. The bahn mi are $2.75 so my total was about $137 when all was said and done... and not to mention, they were delicious, although I did come across one bad bite in the pork. Also, you should always remind your guests of the jalapenos... but come on. I fed 40 people for less than $150 bucks? Not bad. Next time I find myself cruising down Rainier, I'll definitely stop back in. The pho look amaaaaazing and I wished I was eating it. read more

We came here a bunch shortly after moving to Seward Park, craving good cheap Vietnamese food. This place hit the spot and it was the most inviting of the myriad of Vietnamese spots along Rainier around this restaurant. The outside feel doesn't match the nicer interior. We've had the pho (average), bun (above average), and some of the rice dishes (above average). The menu is pretty far ranging, so there is a lot left for us to try there and we'll definitely be back. Service is fast and courteous. They're also pretty good at packing things to go and the prices are great. read more

My love and I were craving bubble tea. We had no idea where to get some, and the place up the street that was supposed to have it was all out of tapioca (???) so I did a bit of online research and came up with Thien Phat. We decided just to get dinner there and take it home to eat, as well as our bubble teas. I had the beef ap chao and my love had the lemongrass chicken and I have to say we were amazed at not only the flavor but the presentation. They actually took the time to make the food pretty in a take out box. Our meals were fresh and the meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. The spring rolls we'd ordered (one shrimp and one chicken) came with an absolutely phenominal peanut sauce. And then there was the bubble tea. I had blueberry and my love had coconut. You know the person making your bubble tea is a pro when they bring a bowl of fresh blueberries and freshly shaved coconut out to the station and make it for you right there. The women behind the counter were extremely nice and the little boy that was "helping" was adorable and really well behaved. They are also the only place I've seen to have jellyfish salad, and I will definitely be ordering it the next time I go there.... which hopefully will be VERY soon. I'm already craving another delicious blueberry boba tea! read more

stopped in here for pick up when we were in the area. I grabbed some bbq pork fresh rolls. The flavor of the rolls and the sauce was sumptuous! *drrooool* My problem with it was that the rolls weren't rolled tightly enough and i kept loosing roll innards into my sauce cup. It was all so tasty that I was willing to go fish them out with my fingers (and then lick sauce off my fingers like some uncouth boor). Despite the mess, I would probably come back here again to pick some of these up... maybe I'd try one of their Banh Mi too! read more

Sub par Vietnamese food. My pho was actually quite terrible, i had only a few bites before I just gave up on it. We had some fresh rolls, and some other little appetizer items but nothing wow'd me or stood out as being something I could not get anywhere else in chinatown. And fyi the back of the menu has some interesting and exotic meat items (only in vietnamese though) if you want a different experience...I won't ever be returning, besides it stands next to a teriyaki joint which is infested with rats. Oh and less than 24 hours later, 2 of us who went ended up with food poisoning. Enjoy. read more

I remember my first time going to Thien Phat, and thinking that this place is wasn't all that great, but the more time I spent talking to the owner and eating the food, I was Hooked. With that said, I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. I always support my local restaurants and this is by far the one I go to the most. Not only does the food taste amazing, the place has a nice feel, and owners are always welcoming. Most times I come in I never have to say much because the owner, knows what I want and just order for me! Every time I come in i get the vermicelli bowl with grill meatballs, egg roll, and grilled pork instead of stir fried beef. The vermicelli is soft and never clumped up like other places I've ate at before, the grilled meatballs, and grilled pork is bomb, and egg roll is a great combo. Not much bads I can say about this place besides some times slow at refilling water? If your looking for a place to eat, you MUST try this place out!! read more

I always have their steak & meatball pho & shrimp&pork spring rolls to go. This is not only the best Vietnamese Food in the area, but it has to be the cleanest and most classy. There is nothing worse than going into a restaraunt & wanting to leave right away because you think a rat or roach might crawl over your feet. This is the total opposite of that. They are friendly, courteous & they know me by first name! read more

Always fresh, huge selection of entrees, and never lets me down! I started trying this seven course beef that is very popular in the Vietnamese restaurant industry and it came with all the goodies that I would eat: bean sprouts, pickled carrots and turnip, lettuce, cilantro, and the rice noodle! Their portions were not as generous as some of the other restaurant I had the "Bo 7 Mon", but sufficient. Aside from all the goodies came a wider rice paper wrapper which was nice since most places give you small little wrappers! read more

Simple Vietnamese restaurant. Love the location since I only live 5 minutes away. Pineapple rice is totally on point. They charge extra to eat a banh mi in the restaurant. read more

1. Reasonably priced. 2. Fills you 3. Quick Service Consumed: Pho with beef, brisket, and tendon To be perfectly honest, my taste buds can't quite discern between the qualities of pho. Maybe it's just because I haven't had enough? But generally, pho is just pho. I can tell however, whether the meat is fresh and whether there's a lot of headache, I mean MSG. (because I get a headache). I didn't get a headache, so if there was MSG, it's below my tolerance level. The meat was just okayy, but it wasn't my favorite. In fact I left some uneaten, which is less than ideal since I hate wasting food. But I guess I enjoy coming here because it's fast and easy and typically it accommodates a large group without much waiting. And pho is pho. read more

I passed this place on my way to work for weeks without trying it. The exterior looked, well, shifty and run-down and I was tired of so many forgettable grimy pho huts. But I got dragged in one day and was pleasantly surprised. Service was better than par. The decor was a bit shabby but clean. Menu variety and price is very good. The vietnamese sandwiches were delicious. And they give generous helpings on the Spring Rolls, (one of my fave dishes) and they're not just stuffed with lettuce filler (although I prefer a creamier peanut sauce)! Also, just an opinion and all, but I dig that they serve hot tea in large cups instead of those tiny teacups you can empty in one gulp. It's my new fave lunchbreak spot. read more

A tear in my Tsingtao This is a great new restaurant addition to the Mt. Baker neighborhood. Not only do they have delicious food they have great hours; they stay open till 11pm most nights of the week, but are closed on Tuesdays. I have eaten here a few times and I usually get the same things: Pho or beef short-ribs over rice. Those ribs kick ass and leave me so ironfilled and happy. They have smoothies that are refreshing and yummy for dessert. The food here is Vietnamese meets Chinese. A lot of offerings, just ask what they are and the helpful servers will give you a description. I only wish I could read Vietnamese so I knew what all of the food listed in Vietnamese is on the back of the menu. I'm guessing more traditional options like boiled eel in fish sauce or something the mainstream American might not like. When dining in, the Huge TV is on closed captioning and the music playing is either Elvis, Ann Murray, or an instrumental version of either artists. I usually get a little teary eyed here when I hear Ann Murray but no one ever notices, they probably think I used too much Schriracha sauce. read more

Thanks to Darren for recommending!! I now have a new place to go to for a yummy humongous bowl of vermicelli rice noodles when I'm in the Rainier area!! The flavors were not overpowering and not bland, it was perfect!!!!! Friendly and attentive service! My cup of water never reached to the bottom!! =) I am definitely a fan of this place! read more

Yikes. Where to start. Won't be back this is certain. Well, parking is easy so I suppose that is where they get their 1 star for. That and my sister's vegetable stir fry sounded fine. But if I'm going to a Phô place then I want to know that my meats are fresh and of a higher caliber than McDonald's ground beef. And this one isn't. When mentioning to the waitress that the beef tastes off and old, she argued with us to tell us that it's fresh and good. I guess she knows my taste buds better than me simply by looking at my bowl. Also, upon asking what type of oil they cook their donuts and food in she replied salad oil. When I clarified to her that I needed to know if it was peanut oil or soybean oil bcuz I'm allergic to these she nodded and said it's "salad oil". This continued for five more attempts until I finally asked her to walk in the back and tell me what the ingredients of salad oil are. Which she then came back n told me it's soybean oil. Ugh! Glad I didn't give up and just order it. Disaster narrowly avoided! Now the music. When we walked in we were treated by one of Madonna's early hits. Which was funny at first but then we realized after 8 songs of not even B-list musicians but rather D? F?-list worth of a line up we were all craving even the simplest of authentic cultural music over what was playing. Several comments were made regarding ears wanting to bleed when new songs came on which were each worse than the last. Oh. Yeah. The Singha beer was good. read more

It's too bad that the pho isn't very good at this restaurant because the place was nice. The pho was bland and lacked any real flavor. I was disappointed with their pho. My friend suggested that I tried this place so I gave it a try recently. It's in a convenient location in South Seattle - just across the street from the old Chubby and Tubby on Rainier Ave. This is a newer restaurant and it's very spacious and clean inside. There's also a big screen tv if you want to eat pho while watching whatever's on. It was good to see the owners and his family eating at the table close to the register when I was there. I may have to go back and give it another try, maybe I'll order something other than pho. read more

I absolutely love this place! We have been coming years! The food is fantastic! The pho broth is the best in the city! Their plate dishes are fresh, rice dishes and fried rice are so comforting and the sandwiches are all excellent! This is my families go to spot for comfort food. Share the word! Customer service, the family is also super! read more
