Thai Cuisine on Barbur — Restaurant in Portland

I used to work near this restaurant, let me tell you, it was my go to for the 2 years I went there. Perfect for someone in a tight break looking for good food.

TLDR: Very good fresh food made fast, big portions, and overall a really nice local restaurant go to, don't be turned away by the lack of costumers!

The variety of food makes it so you're able to go there multiple times without it getting boring. Their menu is outside the store so you're able to take your time looking at it without seeming awkward. Even for its fast pace the food its made, it still manages to maintain flavor and quality. Their portions are also big enough to divide and have for two separate meals.

The restaurant in general always looks and feels clean, its not trying to catch your attention and can easily be missed. The man at the front (I never got his name sadly) is incredibly nice as well.

My favorite dishes from there are the different noodles they make, the Pad Thai, Pad See EW and Yakisoba Noodles were what I alternated around with, all were incredibly good, there wasn't one time where I thought the place lowered in quality. Sometimes id order their Crab Rangoons or Veggie Rolls and like the noodles, it was the best I ever had.

Overall, I really recommend this restaurant, just because it's not overly fancy doesn't mean its not good, even if you don't live around the area, I recommend getting it online. Simple, quick, delicious food with a...

Tried the Lad-nah and the Thai Peanut dish. Both are really great. The Lad-nah had the wide noodles on the side, they had a pleasant smokiness, the house "gravy" is velvety, almost like a soup with a good background fish-sauce flavor and faintly sweet. Had no idea what this dish was and was very pleasantly surprised. Medium heat was just that for me not unnoticeable and not overpowering. The Thai peanut is peanutty and rich, salty and meaty in a really good way. Vegetables are crunchy and fresh. Plenty of peanuts, which I love in Thai food. This place is consistently very very good. Portions are generous but not absurd, the place is clean and the proprietors...

The food here is excellent. I did take-out. I got #73 Spicy Noodle, medium spicy. I added shrimp. The prawns were huge and so fresh. No fishy taste. Often, wide rice noodles are very greasy with lots of excess oil. Not here. Flavors were great. I also got #41 Sweet Eggplant, with tofu, medium spicy. I asked to have the sauce less sweet and they did that. No greasy sauce here either. The vegs were very fresh and tasted great. They use long Asian eggplant, which was delicious. I would have liked a little more Thai basil. This place beat out my 3 favorite local Thai Restaurants. The prices are cheaper too. Clean, healthy food made with care. I'll...
