50 Best Thai Restaurants near Mercer Island

“Absolutely authentic, delicious, fresh and exciting. We randomly stopped in, as we don't live on Mercer Island, however, we will drive out here just for this delightful food.This place is all about the food. It's a small, intimate atmosphere which made me reminiscent of the many places I ate while traveling Asia. I felt right at home.We should have gotten the phad thai, it's the chefs signature dish. What we got was seriously tasty though. We had Larb Gai chicken salad which was fresh, bursting with herbs and tangy lime dressing. Chili fried rice and a phad prik sod with chicken. All meat was quality and cut very well with the freshest crunchy vegetables.Biggest bonus to this experience was the chef stopping by the table to ensure everything was good, thanking us for coming in and inviting us back. There aren't enough places like this.“

“We walked in for lunch and ordered Basil Chicken Rice, Tom Kha and Fried Spring Rolls; what an epicurean delight. The soup was spicy yet fresh and flavorful. The Rice was full of veggies and softly fried chicken and the Spring Rolls were crispy but their delicious contents spicy and full of interesting flavors!I can not wait to return to sample more of theses delicious meals from the menu!“

“So creative, fresh, and delicious! This is one of my favorite restaurants in Seattle. I’ve been here since they opened, and their menu is always changing as they refine their dishes and grow. The owner is also really nice.

Everything here is tasty, but my favorite is their signature dish, Pak Mor Yuan, which is very similar to Vietnamese bánh cuốn. I saw a reel of them making it fresh and it is no wonder that it is so tasty.

I also like Guay Tiew Lohd, which uses similar rice noodles/paper.“

“Fantastic eats, lovely vibe, stellar service. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing Thai food in the heart of Seattle! Fresh, flavour and overall fantastic. Great service too.“

“Top notch Thai dining experience. I was tempted by almost everything on the menu, but ended up having to try the staple Pad Thai, and I wasn't disappointed. It tasted unique in a very good way. I ended up ordering the fried banana and ice cream for dessert, even though I'm not really a dessert person, and it was also excellent. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu.“

“Excellent place for food and the place is very lively.“

“Great prices, great service, good food, quick. One of my fav lunch spots in the area.“

“My daughter and I love their good food an great service!“

“Best vegetarian Thai food in the entire Pacific Northwest hands down!!! One of the most authentic, aromatic and delicious Thai restaurants I have ever been to in my life! The price is incredible, the staff friendly and the portions generous.

I love Thai food and often try it anywhere vegan options are offered, and this is in my Top 3 of all time. A MUST go.“

“Delicious and gorgeous!!!“

“Ordered dinner tonight, and it was hands down, the best Thai food I’ve ever had in Seattle. The Yes Siam fried rice with pork larb and the yellow curry were amazing.“

“ChicChic consistenly serves quality Thai food! This has been a major sticking point at other spots, and why my search for a Thai food spot continued until ChicChic.

As much as I want to give the food a 5-star rating, the curries, both Panang & Yellow, keep my rating at a 4-star. First visit incl. Panang with chicken and level 4 spice. No spice at all and so sweet that it overpowered the curry flavor. Second visit, I ordered the Yellow with chicken and level 4 spice, and once more, sweet, but not as sweet as the first time, no spice, and tasted like the Panang curry. Moving forward, I am avoiding the curries.

The other entrees I've tried - Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) and Pad See Ew - both with chicken and level 4 spice were delicious! The wide noodles were perfectly cooked, and 4-star spicy as desired.

I look forward to trying out the soups and other entrees.

Fix the curries and I will gladly give a 5-star rating!“

“I have been going to royal palm for over a decade. their Thai food in my opinion is the best I've had in seattle. The owners are so kind and the food is delicious.“

“Best Thai food I have ever eaten. The Mango Shrimp with the homemade sweet and sour sauce is fantastic. ❤ it“

“Loved it, delicious cocktails and food, excellent service.“

“Beef Holy Basil! I am Thai, when I say this Thai food is good.... I mean it!“

“food is delicious and service is excellent“

“Super cute and delicious Thai spot in Seattle!

Food: For drinks, we got the Thai Iced coffee and the Thai Iced Lemonade. Both were awesome. I had never tried or even heard of a Thai Iced Lemonade before (which is recommended on their menu) but I was enlightened by it! It was so yummy and refreshing and I highly recommend trying it if you haven't before. I wasn't that hungry, so for our party of 3 we got two dishes since the food is family style: The Panang Curry with chicken and the Pineapple Curry Fried Rice. Both were incredible! I was super satisfied with the flavors and the portions were generous- especially for the prices. For the Panang specifically, we needed an extra side of rice, but apart from that there was plenty to go around for a party of three. If I was a little hungrier though we might have had to order something else (maybe an appetizer or an extra side of something).

Service: Great service. I only saw one person working but she was very fast and super kind. No complaints here.

Atmosphere: Very cute and cozy interior. They play very fitting music to support the ambiance and I always appreciate things like this. The restaurant feels very homey. It seems to be family-owned but not completely sure.

TLDR: Would love to come back here. Wonderful restaurant and had a wonderful experience!

Parking: There is a lot of free parking under a nearby bridge! This was super convenient.“

“this place is the truth! if you want good quality thai food with an incredible atmosphere and staff thaiku is a must!“

“I love the chicken roll and soft serve. One of my favorite restaurants. ❤️“

“Mark is so so kind and the food is great! Good idea for a takeaway lunch and picnic at uw.“

“I've had this place a few times before but after yesterday I had to give it a five-star review. I had their seasonal pumpkin curry and it might possibly be the best fall dish I've ever had. I reheated the leftovers today and it was just as delicious.“

“My favorite restaurant in all of Belltown!!! The food is only topped by the amazing and sweet staff they have. ❤️“

“The BEST Thai food in the Seattle area! Wow! My husband and I love curry and have been to so many restaurants... we are so happy to have found this wonderful place. It's our new favorite!“

“I came here with friends and our 4 combined preschool aged kids. The staff was so accommodating and welcoming to us that I wish I were local so I could keep coming back for that reason alone. Never mind that the food was amazing. We all got different types of dishes and every single one was delicious. We plan on coming back when we return to Seattle.“

“Good chicken fried rice and pad Thai chicken“

“food is delicious and service is excellent“

“I love this place!! Their noodle and rice dishes are so good. They do over-flavor their curries and soups to the point of being too rich or salty imo. I love their chicken lettuce wraps aside from once being really salty too, and just tried the crispy garlic chicken and wish I would have sooner. Can't wait to try more things!“

“It was amazing and tasteful experience. This place has a good vibe.

Vegetarian options: There lot of veg options and try something new.

Dietary restrictions: Really satisfied the number of options.

Parking: Parking was available on time.

Kid-friendliness: It is kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“This is a super reliable Thai restaurant. It executes the standard Thai dishes well, but what I appreciate about them are the signature dishes. This last time around, I tried the soft shell curry and it was delightful. My partner got the pad see ew and he was very pleased by the flavor (that wok hay!) and amount of food they served.

Vegetarian options: You can get tofu for your protein!“

“This might be my new favorite Thai restaurant! I came here on a Sunday right when it opened up at noon. There’s plenty of parking on the side of the restaurant. It was cool to see that the restaurant has two floors, the top floor being a traditional warm farm house style well the bottom floor is more a modern bar and lounge for dinner. The place was very clean, it was great to see family pictures on the wall. We were seated and invited to use the QR code menu which was nice to see and easy to use. We ordered the Thai iced tea for our drinks and it was very refreshing, it wasn’t super sweet like most Thai restaurants as it had a perfect balance of sugar and tea. We got the Tom Yum pizza for appetizer and it was one of my favorite dishes we ordered. I can’t think of another restaurant that has Italian Thai fusion dishes on their menu like this restaurant. The Tom Yum pizza had lots of flavor and it wasn’t like any other pizza I’ve had before, I loved the seafood on it. Next we ordered our main entrées which was the pad Thai, the roast duck curry, and the linguini Tom Kah. Pad thai was beautifully presented and had lots of flavor, wasn’t too salty and wasn’t too sweet. The seafood that we got with the pad Thai was very good. Next was the pasta and it was amazing it had a good balance of the cheesiness from the Italian and the rich spice and flavors from the Thai side. The first bite was amazing. Last night was my favorite dish of the day which was the roast duck curry, in my experience when I eat duck it’s usually dry however this dish was unbelievable as it was juicy and very flavorful with flavors of savoriness, sweetness, tangy. I love the ingredients in the curry such as lychee, green apple, and much more. Overall I had a great experience here and I highly recommend coming here especially because they have a massive menu that consist of an Italian Thai fusion portion. The staff was very friendly and attentive too. 5/5!“

“This has been my absolute favorite Thai restaurant I have ever been to. Everything about this place makes you feel welcomed and you just know you are about to have the best meal of your life. There are so many great options on the menu but an absolute must is their teak house fried rice.“

“Everytime I come to Seattle I come to this restaurant! I love the duck curry and am always enticed by mango sticky rice! This time we had the delicious Pineapple fried rice and the shrimp pad Thai. I recommend both! Can’t wait to be back in Seattle.“

“The owner is delightful and the service is the best that I have experienced anywhere. Greg Heiden“

“Good food, decent prices and convenient location!

The Massaman curry was really good! Little bit spicy for me but was definitely yummy and came with a decent amount of rice. Wasn't too big of a portion though, I could have used a bit more for the actual curry.

The pad thai was super yummy and a BIG portion. I usually add some veggies and green onion to the dish, which I didn't this time so it was mostly just noodles. My friend ordered it as two starts which for me was definitely too spicy. I usually order 0 starts because even for me that tends to have a little bit of a kick.

Overall both dishes were enough for two of us to share with some leftovers.

The dining area is pretty big and since we visited during the day around lunch time it wasn't too busy. The food came out QUICK and the service was very friendly and prompt.

If anything, I would recommend just a tad more in terms of ambiance and decor as the dining area itself was mostly basic and bland.

Overall happy with the visit though and would say it's worth a try!“

“service is great, food is delicious and the price is reasonable!!! highly recommend“

“me and my sisters had a wonderful meal and the best waiter..Eddie W. was soo friendly. delightful and helpful with the menu! can't wait to go back again!“

“We love Naam. We’ve been steady patrons of this wonderful Thai establishment for over a year now and it’s more than time we leave a well deserved glowing review. Their food is always consistently awesome, fresh, and high quality. In my opinion their Pad Kee Mao and their crispy chicken are standouts, but really everything they have is just plain awesome.

When we moved to South Seattle I was distraught to leave the reliable Thai places on Capitol Hill like Manao and Kindee, but Naam being in Madrona is close enough for us to still trek slightly north for an awesome meal that always brings a smile to our faces and bellies.“

“Great food and the best service .“

“Very good food and service! Super good!“

“The food was incredibly delicious! Not greasy or too sweet. We had the chicken Thai fried rice and basil fried rice and for desert the mango sticky rice. Everything was delicious. If I lived close, this place would be a weekly staple. Will definitely come again next time I’m in the area.“

“Anyone in the UW area go check out Pete and his dad at Little Thai Restaurant! Great family owned restaurant. Excellent food! And a gorgeous saltwater aquarium right in the middle of the restaurant. Thanks for the mango sticky rice guys!“

“A friend recommended this place. The food was yummy, especially the crispy garlic chicken.“

“good food,friendly service, parking can be an issues“

“Had Pablo prawns and Mongolian beef friendly staff“

“We love this restaurant and return often. Great staff, consistently delicious food favorites, decent price, excellent service. Thank you!“
