O'Char Issaquah Thai Cuisine — Restaurant in Issaquah

Let me start off by saying that I have eat thai food from all over the country, from places that the cools are second and third generation thai restaurant chefs from Thailand. We ordered Tofu Panang curry, Tofu pineapple fried rice, tofu phad thai, and Mongolian beef. The curry was good but not great and half the portion size of every other place at their price point and did not even come with steamed rice. The pineapple fried rice was a bland at best with very little tofu or pineapple, the portion size is just ok. The phad thai was slightly sweet noodles with no other depth or flavor and only a couple scraps of tofu, by far one of the worst phad thai I have ever had. The Mongolian beef had the best flavor of all the dishes and it was only ok but the portion size didn't come close to a meal. There was approximately 1 oz of beef with about 1.5-2 cups of onions, carrots and sauce. All in all this meal cost me $58 plus tip for an attempt at a meal for my family of four but in actuality it was a meal for 2.5...

The service was lame and slowly, can't believe it took 30 minutes of waiting for just two lunch combo, even my neighbor's 80 yr old grandma could serve meal faster. The most important reason I gave 1 star is because there is no way to give 0 star if I want to leave the comment. By the way, I ordered "Lemon Grass Chicken", not "Philippines Pagpag chicken", I'm typing this comment while I still stay on my toilet for the 3rd time after this lunch, the food looks terrible, and it taste terrible like someone just smashed the frog, and then mix it with my PE teacher's shoes in elementary school. I suggest people who said it was good Thai food, save some money and then fly to Bangkok, go try some real Thai food, then come back and try this place. No comparison...

I ordered my take-out online at 6:13 pm. The application they use for receiving the orders said that our dinner would be ready at 6:30 pm. It seems that the way they process their orders was transferring from the app to a handwritten receipt. That system is so inefficient because there were people who showed up well after I did who received their food first.

I waited over 45 minutes past my promised time to receive a green curry and duck dish with NO RICE. This was my first time ordering from this restaurant. I think it will be a while before I order Thai from the Issaquah O’Char Thai...
