Zab Thai is wonderful. Definitely some of the best Thai food I've had in the area.. And I am in love with the Crispy Garlic Chicken. It's to die for! read more

My favorite Thai place, hands down! Everything tastes great!! Crispy garlic chicken is a must!

Twice in a row! We all have those fave foods, those comfort foods, we could eat two meals in a row without blinking an eye. I was introduced to Zab Thai during a business lunch today. The lunch was supposed to be secondary to the conversation I would be engaging in with a valued supplier. However, once the Combo E Lunch special of Pad Thai and Yellow Curry Chicken hit my table, my attention swayed. Our table was filled with nuveau classic Thai dishes, including curries, noodles, fish and chicken. I have developed an unfortunate intolerance to spicy food that does not get along with traditional Thai food. However, Zab is one of a number of Thai restaurants that let you specify the heat level. That doesn't detract from the taste in the least bit. Red chili paste was replaced by a little extra boost of curry mixed with some green peppers. Amazing flavor! Their yellow curry has a rich, robust, spicy edge and a coconut creaminess that adds the perfect blend of natural sweetness, enhanced by pineapple. The pad Thai was lightly covered in the mild glaze of tamarind and oil, and a slightly stronger than usual hint of fish sauce (nam'pla), which I absolutely loved. Bean sprouts, soy, green onions and finely chopped peanuts dusted the tender noodles. The chicken was lightly roasted, and allowed to simmer in the Pad Thai noodles. This lunch was pure delight! I took nearly half of my lunch home. Zab Thai portions are impressive, especially for a lunch special that holds the $10 mark. And I am a big guy. I have no problems enjoying a large, hefty meal. But the sheer satisfaction you get from Zab Thai left me done at the halfway mark, but looking forward to an after-work snack. The snack didn't exactly go as planned. hahaha My wife and daughter discovered my leftovers this evening, re-appropriated all of it to their tummies, and asked for more. So I called in an order. My wife had the Moonlight Tilapia. This was an incredible dish of lightly fried tilapia fillets, served with a host of red onions and bell peppers. She vows to eat tilapia no other but the Zab way from here on. My daughter and I bought beef Pad Thai and yellow curry chicken, which we shared. Family style is the best way to enjoy Thai food. Everyone gets a major entree, then shares with the rest fo the family, in the round. Queue the happy smiles all around. Giving Zab Thai five stars was a no-brainer. If I were to have a single complaint whatsoever, it would have been the slight delay at pickup. However, the restaurant was buzzing, and the staff appeared to be a person short. They were apologetic and very courteous. Can't ask for much more. If you love Thai food, and enjoy Thai food that reflects the modern and international flavor of the modern palate, but love that traditional influence, You will absolutely LOVE this place. read more

I used to go here all the time and really enjoyed their food. Last time I was here, I ordered a side of rice, when the bill came I saw that I was charged for two so I alerted them that I only got one. They insisted that I had gotten two which was strange to me. I had already packed up my extra food to go after eating. They finally took the rice off the bill then asked me if I had any in box and I said yes, they asked me to take it out because they had given my extra rice somehow and they said they were going to feed it to their "animals." I was so shocked that this was happening, they actually asked me to take out the rice from my box and would not allow me to take it home due to a error they had made. I will never be going back there again, I had no idea that customer service could be that bad or cheap. read more

Was given the wrong order for pick up, after driving back to return the wrong food and get my food their senior staff had the gall to blame the mix up on me for not checking the order in the first place, It was all bagged up!.. I will not return, there are plenty of better Thai places around the area anyways. read more

I'm a vegetarian, and a Thai food snob. This is BY far my favorite Thai restaurant. I just wish it wasn't in crusty Everett. Sadly I don't make it into Everett much anymore, but if I do I always order Zab. I love Swimming Rama & yellow curry with crispy fried tofu! YUM!!!!! read more

I had called the next day to reach an owner or manager. Of course! I got the run around. I didn't get a straight answer on who the manger was or when he/she would be in. Previous Review: If I could give a ZERO star, I WOULD!! I took my friend here tonight for her bday dinner. We got seated and literally it took my waitress 10 mins in order for her to even service us. She was not friendly and seemed upset cause she had to "work". The food was ok but the service was horrible. When the food had came out, she would slide the plates like she was serving a dog, literally! Not once a smile, or you're welcome when we would say "thank you". I felt like everytime (which i asked three times. 1. for white rice 2. for chopstix 3. to go boxes) I asked her something, it was an inconvenience to her. It gets even worse from here. I went up to pay and she was my cashier. I just grabbed my cash not leaving her a tip, cause she didn't deserve a tip. As I was walking out the door, I get stopped by her yelling loud at me "Excuse me? You don't tip me?" I quickly responded...No I did not. The food was ok but the service wasn't all that great. She then rudely said to me, "Well if you like the food, you at least tip me 10% to 15%. I service you. I work for tip. You don't like the service next time you order to go" Are you effing kidding me?!?! I'm actually a good tipper, due to the fact that I am also in the service industry where I too work for tips. I do know the etiquette of tipping. Tipping is a voluntary payment due to good service which I DID NOT RECEIVE HERE!! Well here's a tip for ya, GIVE BETTER SERVICE!!! How tacky that the waitress had the nerve to ask me for gratuity when she well did not deserve it. As I went looking for the number on my receipt to call the manager/owner tomorrow about my incident tonight, my server's name was MEAN...lol seriously MEAN fits her well. I will not be returning to this place as I would not recommend anyone or my fellow Yelpers to this establishment. Take your money elsewhere! read more

I love this restaurant. Whenever anyone wants thai food i always try to persuade them to come here. I always get the thai chicken fried rice with five stars. And it isnt hot enough for me so I ask for more chili sauce which they bring in a four container arrangment with three other spices. If you come during the lunch hour you will get soup with your order. I also get the thai iced teas which are quite delightful. Compared to a couple of the other thai restaurants in Everett this one beats them out of the park by far (i.e. lanna thai, or taste of thai). I love this place so much Im going here within the week : ) read more

Had a bad takeout experience. We ordered pad thai and the crispy garlic chicken to go and were told it would take 10 minutes. 30 minutes later we still hadn't gotten our food and were getting a little annoyed. When our order was finally ready they made us pad thai and asparagus prawns. At that point we didn't want to wait another 30 minutes for our correct order so settled for just the pad thai. Cold pad thai that took 30 minutes to make, with no effort to make up for mistaking our order left us disappointed. Before this experience we had been here once before and thought the food was pretty good, but not among my favorite Thai places. read more

Fair pricing. Good service. Great food. I've been here twice and had many dishes with my family. I generally don't care for most [Americanized] Thai food. This place is great! read more

This is an awesome place to eat. I was turned on to thai food about 3 years ago and kind of became a pro critic over time. I visited Zab Thai about 3 months ago and have been back several times since. Amazing meals and an awesome, friendly and hardworking staff. I'll be back and recommend this place to everyone I know. read more

Ordered food for delivery. The food was delicious. Delivery took about 40 min. But it was worth the wait. The portions were large as well. We will definitely order from here again and I would recommend them without hesitation. read more

Worst Thai food experience ever! ! My husband and I ordered food to go today, we waited about one hour because they said they were busy. ..When we finally got the food home, found out that the pineapple fried rice was made with yellow curry! And the the other noodle dish was spicy which we had stated clearly "no spicy please", because we both have sore throats. Now neither one dish is edible for us, we wanted to call them about this but due to their customer service we had encountered before, we know it would be a waste of time. So I just want to warn everyone else, stay away from this place. read more

SO GOOD! Awesome customer service and excellent Thai Food!!!! Beautiful restaurant and super quick and efficient take out!

Good tie food, if you're looking for place to eat some padtie in Everett try this place.

We just left the restaurant for me and my wife anniversary. We usually visit Zap Thai on the weekdays after work. However tonight was very different. The server suggested us to try Pla Pa Za, that we never try before it was amazing and they took a very good care of us. They also made a very special dessert that wasn't in the menu to complete ours anniversary night. By the way, we are very appreciate and thank you for the service.We will definitely go back and recommend to others. :) read more

Have eaten here several times. His good food ( seafood salad ) price is fair. Wife likes the music on friday night. read more

The best Thai food in town! I've been coming here since they opened and they never seem to fail me. Don't be discouraged to try the place out due to their location. The inside has beautiful art/murals, and they have live music on the weekends. Almost everything on the menu is delicious. Seriously. If I can get past the appetizers (money bags, laab, som tum), their pad see ewe, pineapple fried rice, panang curry, & phad Thai are amazing. Dessert is a must! Coconut ice cream and banana roll or the mango and sticky rice. read more

I've heard a few people mentioned that Seattle has really good Thai food. Well, we chose Zab because it was close to where we were staying at. We ordered 4 dishes: 1. Crispy garlic chicken was really really good, the chicken was tender with wonderful flavors. 2. Pad Thai with shrimp was NO good, not enough spices in this dish. It was quite bland. 3. Red curry with chicken was very diluted, the coconut sauce should be creamy in my experience. Hence the flavor was lacking curry as well. 4. Pineapple fried rice with beef - the fried rice part was excellent with raisins, cashew nuts and pineapple were good. The beef was chewy though. The service wasn't too friendly. read more

Placed a "to go" order at 11:30AM. Showed up at 12:00PM to pick up my order. I was told that it will be ready in 5 more minutes. 12:30PM came by and my order still not ready. Asked the waitress if she can rush them, she said they are busy and when it's done she will bring it out. 12:45, finally got tired of waiting and cancelled my order and demand my money back. No apologies, just made me waited another 10 minutes before the manager can give me my refunds back. Again no apologies from the manager either. Found it funny that at least 5 people in front of me complained about the same and they were all given a 10% discount. I guess they think 10% discount is sufficient for people to come back and make up for the bad service. Will never come here again. read more

Craving Pad Thai so my fiancee and I got some take out, and It was exactly what I want when I get chicken Pad Thai, simple and delicious! Price was good and we each got two meals from it, good portion size! read more

I have yet to find a Thai restaurant that I really like. This one is the exception. The decor looks meh on the outside but once inside, it's tastefully decorated. The server was friendly and the restaurant was very clean. Onto the food, my garlic cashew chicken was full of flavor and w/the right amount of heat. Now, my bf loves every and all things spicy. He always gets the max amount of stars because whatever dish it may be is just never spicy enough and I agree (and I don't have much of a spicy tolerance fyi!) so he got his jungle curry w/the max stars and it was delish. Perfect amount of heat where you can still savor the flavor w/o having the heat itself drown out the flavor. The only con I can think of is that it's a lil' pricier than your average Thai place BUT I'd rather pay more for quality so I don't mind at all. read more

I love lunch here. It's a great deal! I recommend getting the combination plate since it comes with a generous portion of pad thai for around 10 bucks. Service is not the best. You have to ask 2-3 times if you need something because it's usually pretty busy at lunch time. read more

Definitely a favorite. Great food and service and great prices. Sometimes even have the piano player going. Some bomb Thai food here, recommended for sure! read more

I walked in at 9:15 on a Thursday night. I knew that they were closing at 9:30 so instead of planning to dine in I was just going to order Togo. When I walked in there were about 3 tables still filled with people. I asked the host if I could order for Togo and he said sorry our kitchen is actually closed - I could clearly hear the cook inside still making food...ugh waste of gas coming here! read more

Stopped by here while in town for business. Hadn't had Thai in a while so was craving it. Ordered my go to dish, Pad Kee Mao. Overall I thought it was average. Service was pretty lackluster as well (and it wasn't busy). Not too sure what the hype is about. Very Meh. read more

Surprising restaurant given the location. Not something you expect, especially ones you walk in. Not a diner feel, but very warm atmosphere read more

This place is a great find- the food is some of the best Thai food you will find in the Lynnwood/Everett area. The decor is very nice, has a cozy, classy feel to it. The staff could not be friendlier or more responsive. Not sure if I just hit it on the right night or what- but this place gets my highest rating. Worth a visit!! read more

Thai food is not a cuisine I'm familiar with. My good friend took me to Zab, and I cannot wait to go back! Excellent food, friendly service, relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend! read more

The best Thai food around. Its worth the drive if you don't like in the area. Tom Yum, Crispy garlic chicken, fried tofu... Its all so good. If you are a simple Thai eater and get Pad Thai all the time - please come here and get theirs its NOT the gross red sauce kind. read more

We get delivery all the time. It's always really good and have never had any issues. Only complaint would be it's a little expensive. Two sides and an app is $30+ delivered. read more

I am not a big Thai food fan, but this place is pretty good. Fried tofu was very good, and best dish is the "golden noodle". Will come back again! read more

Went here for the first time the other month and it was great. Very clean and beautiful restaurant. The food was nicely priced and tasted delicious. I had the Pad See Ew and it was perfect. I will definitely go here again. read more

Still coming back over and over again. They have a few new servers hired. Still great customer service and great food.

This is literally the only place my gf likes fried rice from. I'm not sure how they do their magic but the fried rice they make is unbelievable. Amazing stuff. read more

Decided to try this place again with a Buddy. Their Curry is super flavorful but the Phad Thai was lacking flavor but still good. Maybe it shouldn't be paired next to the Curry on a lunch combo. read more

I went with my friend to Zab and had a wonderful time. I ate chicken pad Thai and drank a Thai tea. I was very pleased it came out hot, delicious, and authentic. My friend enjoyed the avocado curry. The costumer service is really good our waitress was professional and funny. It's very affordable and super cute on the interior! Everyone should go give it a try read more

Visit number 3. Had the chicken Phad Thai. Good price. Great flavor. Not too greasy. Good service. Clean. Reliable and consistent quality. I've also had their eggplant dish, and curries. My sister gets the Tom Kah every time. They graciously add vegetables. Give them a visit! read more

I really like the atmosphere here. It is great for just casual dining or a quiet romantic evening. The food and service are great.

Wonderful service and food. Would always come her when we are in Seattle.
