Thai Noon Restaurant — Restaurant in Portland

The appetizers were good ( egg rolls, chicken potstickers and chicken wontons all provided options for a family that can’t have pork. The potstickers tasted like they were made in-house and the wontons strangely had an Indian curry flavor which was great.) I’m glad we ordered so many because when it came to the Tom Kha Gai soup it was inedible. I had based our decision to get Thai food on having a craving for the soup, and I was really looking forward to it. They brought my husband’s entree out first and he was almost done with it by the time my soup arrived. I’m leaving this review to suggest maybe ordering something else, or hopefully the establishment can work on it. I dunno, I’ve just never had it like this before, it seemed like a fast food version. Thick, super sweet, uniformly-orange broth that looked and tasted like thousand island dressing. This was not helped by the big chunk of soggy “green cabbage” floating in it that reminded me unappetizingly of the wilted lettuce you’d also find on a Big Mac. This soup usually is a nice balance of salty, sour, spicy and mildly sweet, between the fish sauce and coconut milk, and that aromatic basil and lemongrass, I missed the pools of oil from the red curry that usually float on top. I couldn’t taste any of that over the cloying sweetness. I hope they fix it, it was $11.50 and I...

'Walked in and immediately saw a server walking with a fried rice dish towards a customer's table and thought that dish looked soo yummy. I'm sure had I ordered it, I would have had a very different lunch experience. Instead... against my better judgement, I ordered what I usually order from Thai restaurants, chicken phad Thai. At first glance, I immediately could see how very wet the dish was... at first bite, it was almost as if I ordered a ramen noodle dish. I should have ordered a fried rice dish. The thing is... last time I came here, I ordered the same thing and thought exactly the same afterwards. Why I didn't learn from back then, I really don't know. I finished my lunch and as I was signing my credit card slip, I thought of dessert and asked whether or not they are serving Sticky Rice with Mango. They said yes so, I ordered it. It arrived at my table and thought exactly the same thing about the phad Thai, the rice was drowning in sauce? I took my first bite and was overwhelmed with how much sugar there was in this sauce, it was too much and too sweet... and this coming from someone who loves sweets. I'm giving 3 stars because I've not yet decided to give up on Thai Noon, I am still interested in trying out other dishes. As far as the ones I've had today,...

If you're looking for an exceptional Thai dining experience, then look no further than Thai Noon restaurant! From the moment you step into the charming and aesthetically pleasing ambiance, you're transported to a world of flavor and culinary excellence.

To start, we highly recommend trying their signature cocktails - the "thaigaritas" and "Thai Me Ups". The blend of sweet and tangy flavors will tantalize your taste buds and set the tone for the rest of the meal.

For appetizers, we opted for the Golden turnovers which were simply divine. The crispy exterior and savory filling left us wanting more.

Moving on to the main course, we were blown away by the Larb and Drunken Noodles. The Larb, a traditional Thai dish made with ground meat, was perfectly spiced and served with a generous amount of fresh herbs. The Drunken Noodles, with its flavorful sauce and tender noodles, were a standout dish that we'll definitely be ordering again.

Overall, we rate Thai Noon 5 out of 5 for their exceptional cuisine and welcoming ambiance. The attention to detail in both the food and decor truly make this restaurant a gem in the culinary world.
