I've already been here three times and I'm struggling to restrain myself from making it a more frequent occurrence. The food here is delicious! I love the noodles. So far, I've gotten the egg rolls, the steamed dumplings, hand pulled noodle soup, pad see ew, and the special hand pulled noodle. I would recommend all of these items.
I've gone for dine in and take out. I think it's worth noting that the take out options are slightly more limited (makes sense) than the dining in options and that I would order the food when you actually want it instead of trying to schedule a later order. I think it might be tough for them to accommodate that with the fresh noodles.
Dining in - the space is very nice but still casual and they had a good selection of drinks. There's a good amount of seating space.
Will definitely keep coming back.

The people there are so kind, the hand pulled noodles are amazing, and the noodle soup was like home from a place I had never been before. They pack so much flavor into their food while cooking everything perfectly. On a cold busy day, I can’t say how perfect enough it was to go there. Truly a blessing to have them in the neighborhood ❤️

The food and price is pretty good, but every time I’ve eaten here, it seems as though they prioritize the white customers. I’ve barely ever gotten a water refill when all of the white tables are constantly checked up on and given multiple refills, and it usually takes us forever to even get our order taken. Also, it’s odd that they have 4 servers when the restaurant isn’t even busy and they all hide away in the back.

Parking: Kind of a small place but very bright and well lit. Be careful on the spice level it can go from very mild to eye watering in just one jump. Good selection and amazingly tasty food. Would def recommend

yum. the egg noodle dishes are smth i would often eat back in bangkok, so it really hits home (especially the savory sauces).
its really nice that you can see the noodles being made in-house. they make both the egg noodles and hand pulled noodles themselves!
if youve ever been to khao moo dang in SE portland, this place is sort of similar but their menu has a wider selection of offerings for both rice and noodles dishes.
highly recommend the house noodles (N12/13 on their menu) and the creamy tomyum bowl.
our server was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with guiding us through menu options. the only reason for the -1 star for service is because we sat around for awhile after boxing up our food and it seemed like they forgot to give us the check but honestly not the biggest deal and the food made up for it. we also had plenty to take home as leftovers.

I was so excited to try this restaurant and they did not disappoint. The atmosphere was beautiful and very chill. The Service was great! The whole team was wonderful. The food was EXCELLENT. We had the Shrimp Crispy Noodle Rolls and Crab Roll Wontons to start. Both were excellent. The crab rolls were actually pork, shrimp, and crab and the balance of flavors and texture was wonderful. The Shrimp Crispy Noodle Rolls were equally as good. The crispy noodles with the sweet shrimp was very pleasing. For main courses we had the N8 Kao Soy Noodle with Stewed Beef and the N13 Ba Mee House Noodle BBQ sauce with Crispy pork & BBQ Pork. My friend loved the N13 and said it was some of the best pork he has ever had. He loved the depth of flavor and the noodles. The N8, however was the Star of the show for us. The meat literally melted in your mouth and the curry was PHENOMENAL. The pickled greens that they paid with it really elevated the dish and the egg noodles were perfection. We will definitely be coming back to try more and I highly recommend you all give it a try!

It’s possible I should share my review after eating there one more time, but this place is a really refreshing addition to the Thai food that is all over town. The Laos style papaya salad had such a flavor punch - delicious (once I removed the crunchy crawfish shells)… I had the garlic noodles and the flavor was wonderful, noodles ? great consistency. My wife got a gluten free dish and the seared flavor of the noodles was great. Could have had some more tamari, but this will *definitely* be our new go-to place for Thai food on take out nights!
Dietary restrictions: My partner is GF and her noodles were really tasty. The seared flavor on the Pad See Ew (sp!?) was prominent and I like that. It could have been a bit saucier - more tamari possibly, but the tofu was tasty and overall her dish was delish!

We had an amazing time at this place. I ordered classic pad Thai with shrimp and it was exquisite. Every single plate that we ordered looked fantastic and my friends were also really satisfied with their order.
The best I take away from Ba mee is the service!! ❤️ 10/10
The waiters and staff in general were so kind, helpful, fun and very friendly. We loved it here!

My partner and I ate here and had a terrible experience. We ordered A3 for an appetizer and really disliked the taste. It’s like a tortilla roll up with four different kinds of meat with a mustard sauce over it. I ordered the Tom Ka soup and like the flavor of the soup broth and the noodles, but all of the meat was flavorless and rubbery. My partner did like his soup, but they got the spice levels that we requested mixed up, so his was far more spicy than he wanted and mine had no spice. They have disposable, wooden chopsticks for dine in, which seems low quality. They were playing 90’s country music. A man came in and sat a couple of tables away from us and started loudly taking phone calls on speaker and the server went over and joined in on the phone call instead of asking him to take his call outside or off speaker. At this point we just wanted our check and to get out of the place.
