Ploy's Thai Food — Restaurant in Portland

Seriously best Thai food in the Portland-Tigard-Beaverton all the way to Salem I've had yet!!!! I got the yellow curry...omg it was so creamy but sort of different then all the other thai restraunts I've been to. Creamy yummy fresh veggies... And that spice to it.. Their curry spice is better than any I've ever cooked with or tasted before this delectable dish. Sweet but not to sweet. (I am a very sweet person though, sugar is my drug😋! )

My fiancé, Chadwick, had the pra ram..double peanut sauce on the side on accident but when he started in on the steamed veggies.. He was in heaven and ate half the plate of just fresh steamed veggies.. He was like.. Omg why.. Why are these soooo gooood!! I felt a little off put at first because I pride myself on cookie amazing dinners for the two of us and his reaction... Made me a little tinsy bit jealous... I had been the only one to recieve such a reaction he was having at this given moment. Grr. 😏.🤗. Haha.

Lastly I ordered the sticky rice... Mango wasn't in season. This sticky rice...is so effing amazing. It's served Togo in a bag that's placed inside a Togo container thingy. Then the sauce is on the side (they might have put it on the side because Chad ordered his sauce on the side on accident. So they might have thought we wanted everything on the side. So yours might be inside the rice already. Anyways once I poored this amazing, sweet, slight coconuty sauce inside the sticky rice bag.. It was a little bite of heaven.. Creamy sweet yummy heaven all in one!!

Let me tell you. Go here. Get food. Nom nom... And yes, your...

Review in brief: I came in for a late lunch to kill some time before an appointment. I ordered a Thai iced tea, the veggie rolls, and the peanut curry. A couple small problems, but mostly great, and I would return when convenient.

Service was amazing. From the time I entered the building until the time I received all of my food, it was about 10 minutes. The two servers who were around were very friendly and attentive. One of them was on her break, but still came over to check on me and refill my water. The peanut curry was delicious. I ordered it medium, and it was well spiced. The food was a great price for the portion sizes. Thai food us a go-to choice, and I can eat a lot when I'm hungry, and I left totally full for about 20 dollars. The veggie rolls were fine, but I've had better a few places elsewhere in Portland. The peanut sauce was pretty good. Really, the biggest disappointment was the Thai iced tea, which lacked flavor. So, I wouldn't order that again. Still, service was excellent and fast, and the food was a great price. If you're ever in the area and want a quick meal, this is a great location. Most of the food was pretty good, so despite the few disappointments, I think by my calculations it's worth 5 stars*. If I was in the area again, I'd come back.

*Curry was 60% of order cost, so 5 stars means 3. Veggie rolls were 25%, and 4 stars, so add 1 star. Thai iced tea was ~15%, and 1 star, so thats 0.15, for a total of 4.15 stars for the food. Service was excellent, so that's easily a...

Update 7/12/23 I have been a customer of Ploy’s for many years. I have always had great service and tasty entrees. This all changed last week when I went to dine in with my sister who loves Thai food and had never been to Ploys. Unfortunately, she is not a fan of spicy food but has always gotten around it by ordering zero spice, just as she did when the waitress took her order.

After taking a couple of bites of her entree, she said it was too spicy and she could not eat it.

This is where things didn’t sit right with me. When she asked the waitress about it her response was that maybe next time she should order with some other noodle that’s not soaked in spice. No offer to fix it or take it off the bill.

In my mind all I could think of is how about you state this when someone orders an entree with zero spice? You work here and you can’t just expect customers will know this? This is horrible customer service.

Sorry to change my review as they do have great food. It was disappointing that there was not even what should have been a bare minimum to correct the current order, but rather a suggestion for an order on next time we visit? Nah. Hard pass.

Original Review Excellent Thai and food outstanding service at Ploy's in Garden Home! Accidentally stumbled across Ploys one day, and have returned multiple times since. I don't have to run all the way to south east to get the best Pad Thai in town!!! Well...
