Thai Vendor is small, unassuming, and shares a tiny parking lot with a plaid pantry but their food is very good. So far I've tried probably 7 different dishes and all of them were excellent. This place is perfect.

The food was good, but the service was pretty bad. Waited over an hour to get 2 drinks, hour and a half for food.

Fantastic food! We ordered the Veggie Spring Rolls, Veggie Green Curry, Tofu Pad Kee Mow and Brown Rice and everything was awesome!!

Waited over 30 mins for the food, only to be served something barely room temperature and tasting bland. Restaurant was empty except for one other table and some takeout orders. Waited another 30 mins to finally be checked on and they seemed confused why I didn’t want to take the meal home (even after seeing I only took one bite). Never offered to make me something else. We understand the FOH person is doing a lot, but come on… this restaurant is clearly understaffed and the quality is suffering. A bunch of dirty dishes piled onto a table in the center of restaurant was not appealing to look at while trying to eat. 1 hour later, I’m going next door to Plaid Pantry to buy my snack dinner. Very disappointing.

The food is quite good and Thai Vendor is kind of the only place within walking distance of OHSU hospital. I had dinner here with my siblings. We shared pad thai, kaprow chicken, some mixed vegetables in peanut sauce, and a green curry. Everything was good, but I'd probably opt for something different for vegetables. They don't serve alcohol too, which always goes well with thai food. The place wasn't busy on a Friday evening, but I imagine during the week it must get busy with all the hospital staff and students.

In a city full of Thai restaurants, somehow this place really stands out for quality and freshness. It’s a very nondescript little place that you would not normally notice. I’ve been here five or six times over the last couple of weeks while visiting someone in OHSU hospital, and each time, I was blown away at how unusually good the dishes were. I had curries, noodles, soups, stir-fries, etc. and they were all done perfectly. I haven’t had any disappointments. Highly recommend.

One of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to. Eaten at hundreds of Thai restaurants all over, many in Thai Town in Los Angeles. This place is fantastic. Love the pumpkin curry. I’ve eaten at a dozen or so in the Portland area, and this is the best one I’ve found so far.

Honest review. I tried this Thai restaurant for the first time not too long ago, and I LOVE IT. I loved the options, not too overwhelming the amount of options like other restaurants. I also loved the staff, super nice and friendly. THE biggest two reasons why I love this location and would highly recommend it are vibes and price. This place is still small and low-key vibes because most other people go to the trendier and well positioned locations but this location is just what I want, simple and great food and service. THE PRICE is unbelievable, super reasonable dare I say on the low end and it's even lower for lunch orders! I will for sure be returning to this location for all the reasons I have listed above and I would HIGHLY recommend this amazing little location. If you have not tried Thai food before, a good dish to start you off is the Punang Curry, stir frys, or the fried rice dishes with your choice of meat added to them. My friends have tried their chicken fried rice, curries, and noodles and they have all loved their dishes, so really I think you will get fantastic quality, portions and friendly service. Please do yourself a favor and try this place.For reference on prices, my typical dishes at other restaurants cost about $17-$21, here it was $12.50 during the lunch menu.Small family owned restaurant, very friendly.You can order online or via phone.

You’ll love here if you like asian food, mostly Thai here but with some mixed of Chinese and Korean fusion style food, so not exactly typical asian restaurant which makes it worth a try.

Great food but service was slow. It is still a return place because the slow service could have been an anomaly. The food was flavored just right and at the right temperature. Quick access up on the hill near OHSU.

My husband and I stopped in here after taking the tram ride up to the hospital. It was a late lunch, and we weren't extremely hungry, so we shared the yellow chicken curry. I was so happy we shared it because the serving size was huge. The dish came with a great mix of chicken and veggies. The veggies were cooked perfectly... not overdone at all. The flavors were great. We ordered it a level 3 spice and it wasn't very spicy. My husband would have liked a little more but I thought it was great. Our waitress was the only one serving in the place. She was very sweet and attentive. It's not the fanciest place around but it's clean.
