D D Thai Fusion — Restaurant in Tigard

The best Thai food in Portland for the price and the quantity. The entire menu is $8.50 and I’ve tried a myriad of the choices and I’ve never been disappointed. The drunken noodles were the best I’ve had in Portland, the tom kha, tom yum, curries and stir fried dishes were all excellent too. And their peanut sauce was tasty enough to eat on its own, directly from the little sauce cup. A word of warning, they do real Thai Hot, and my usual spice level of medium is too much for me here. I don’t think I’m a real baby about hot foods, either. As a recent transplant from Los Angeles/New Mexico, I generally find Portland’s spicy cuisine far too mild for my liking. That is DEFINITELY not the case at DDs. They spice all the dishes and don’t make them mild by default, so if you’re sensitive at all, make sure you point out that you want it mild, because they don’t always ask. There have been a couple of times that I forgot, got my food home and even after adding an entire can of coconut milk, it was so spicy I cried through the whole meal. Such a delicious punishment for my mouth 😂 But they are super friendly, it’s a counter seating arrangement in a food space at a grocery store, so it may not be right for a date? I always get take out. Then while you’re waiting for your food, you can check out the H Mart, especially the seafood dept with it’s large tanks of live fish...

Seriously, this is the best deal on Thai food in the Portland area. It’s fresh, flavorful and everything on the menu is $8.50. It’s my favorite stop for Thai treaties whenever I get a chance. I can run in, place a take out order, cruise the H Mart and check out all the cool (albeit weird) stuff they sell while I wait. The curries, Tom Yum and Tom Kha are all fantastic, and they are always super nice and accommodating. NOTE: Their spice level is no joke there, and I’m not a wuss when it comes to heat levels. If you’re an average spicy eater, I DEFINITELY recommend you order mild. Even the mild will sometimes make me tear up. And you have to point out that you want it mild, they won’t always ask. I’ve ordered red curry with my usual medium spice level there that I had to dump a whole can of coconut milk in when I got it home, and it was STILL hot af. I can’t even imagine what hot is like. EDIT: Been on a basil kick and drunken noodles have been getting a ton of love from me at the multitude of Thai spots throughout the city. DD’s are far and away the best I’ve tried, plus you get a huge portion that I even find delicious cold the next day. And it’s the cheapest price to boot! This place never fails me or even...

I have been searching a decent Thai food, and this is not where you can get it. There is nothing special in their steamed rice or veggies - those are just that. Chicken, beef etc - pretty common, no diff in taste from any other place. But I hoped their soups - Tom Yum and Tom Kha - would be something decent. Unfortunately, they are not. I am pretty sure they use some soup base, and do not cook their own broth. And it is the same base for both soups. And it is not hot and sour, but rather sweet and extremely salty, to the point you can't really eat it. On top of that - at least Tom Yum - is a rip off. You get soup base + 1 liter water + half tomato + 2 small shrimp + 2 calimari rings + half a mushroom and some onions. This is for $15. Tom Kha - you get enough chicken meet instead of seafood. Very disappointing, as previously they had pretty...
