Kao soy. Order it. Be nice to the staff because they are uncommonly nice to everyone. Take a bus and avoid finding parking. Call for take out. PDX is filled with Thai restaurants so everyone’s opinion will vary depending on what they’re looking for in a Thai restaurant. Personally, I’m looking for the reliable standard dishes, some special house creations, friendly staff, clean surroundings and successful digestion later(all of which I’ve found here). Support this business!

This place has replaced my usual Thai stop. I’m a creature of habit and have begun to visit this place regularly! Beautiful space; great for both large groups and date nights. Wonderful service as well! I LOVE that you can get both veggies and tofu to any dish, not one or the other like most resturaunts. Kao soy is to die for!

This is my go to spot when I am in the area for lunch. The food is above authentic and better than most. Spacious restaurant and nice décor. I have gotten the pad kee mao, pad see ew, and curries. They also have thirst quenching Thai drinks and bubble tea. A lot of great seasonal drinks. Drink choices of non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks. The desserts sweetens the whole meal makes it such a good deal. Service is friendly for dining in and take out. The waitress always has a smile and very polite. As I wait for my take out food they offer me water as I wait. You get your food pretty quickly from my experience. And they prepare it fresh. If you are in the area I would go here instead of other Thai options nearby.

Super awesome thai food. My go to red curry was the perfect spice level and was a decent sized portion. Price was very reasonable and everything was super fresh. I’ll definitely be back again soon. Excellent customer service too!

SUPER yum. The best salad rolls in town I think, and their peanut sauce is even BETTER than the salad rolls. Seriously, get 2 peanut sauces. Their Pad Kee Mao is my go to, always consistently delish. Their ground chicken and basil is my second favorite. They are always so quick too, by the time I walk there from my house, about 10 min, my food is always ready to go! Thanks for the yummy Thai food!

My fave Thai Restaurant in Portland. The menu is broad and all good. The Curry Noodles, MeeDee Wings, Avocado Salad are must haves. They are also the most conscious Thai place out there when it comes to Gluten Free needs, brown rice etc. They also have a great Tea selection. Fried Ice Cream is amazing. I take my family from out of town here as an alternative to PokPok. PokPok may be known but it is overpriced mediocrity.

This is my fiancé and I’s «go-to» Thai restaurant in the neighborhood. Everything we’ve ordered so far has been phenomenal. We really don’t have a single complaint! The service is spot on too. The servers are always young, enthusiastic, fast and attentive. We like to bring visitors here from out of town. All the curries are Delish and I like to order the sweet sticky coconut rice with mango for dessert. Try all the appetizers!

I’m from out of state, so I really liked that their menu had some things that I’ve never seen at other Thai restaurants I’ve been to. Everything I ordered was delicious, especially the Summer Avocado Rolls and the Kee Mao Yakisoba noodles. Would definitely give this place a try again.

The waitress recommended the flaming beef and I’m glad she did. The ingredients were fresh and the flavor was fantastic. Definitely going back.

I rarely give one star ratings. But the service at this restaurant has been terrible the last few times I came. Today for lunch, I placed my order, and the food arrived pretty quick. However, with the food was a dirty plate, dirty cutlery, and a little insect crawling along the edges of my bowl. Not a great impression. 5 minute into my food, the waiter came to my desk with a bill. I just started eating, and he was rushing me to leave already although the restaurant was half empty. I paid for the meal on my credit card, and the waiter came back with the card but no receipt. I told him and he came back this time with the receipt but not my card! Then the waiter disappears into the kitchen for a good two minutes. I’m not impressed. Insects in food, disappointing service. Never coming back.

Our experience was very unsatisfying! We walked in and were not greeted we had to ask to be sat and once we got seated they never came back to take our order. We waited for about 20 minutes until one of us finally got up to notify the waiter that we were ready to take our order. After a few more minutes we decided to finally walk out. Sad that we did not even get acknowledged!

Excellent service, delicious food. We were very impressed with their delicious crab Rangoon, and delicious pad Thai. I ordered the shrimp Pad Thai and it was delicious. It was enough for two meals for me, and they gave me lots of large, delicious shrimp. My husband ordered the chicken pad Thai and was very happy with it. We will definitely go back again soon — the food was very affordable(compared to nearby Thai restaurants) and the service was excellent. The layout of the restaurant makes it a fairly quiet place to enjoy a meal. We will definitely be back again soon.

Service is great and the employees can be full of conversation if it’s okay with you. I learned that their owners are kind and generous and allow the decision whether they’re open on holidays(like some restaurants) to the employees — no pressure to make anyone work, but if employees can work they’ll be open if they need to be. This makes me support this local business even that much more: hard workers with a voice. The food is good, but I was slightly disappointed in my pad kee mao — the bell peppers weren’t sauteed long enough to taste fully cooked. Although I did devour the dish, I didn’t find it too satisfying as I did to their wings. The Mee Dee’s wings are divine and I’ll definitely at least two orders the next time around. Had ordered the tom kah and mussamun curry as well and they were good, but didn’t differ from other Thai restaurants I’ve eaten at. I’m not familiar with their spice level so had ordered everything at «medium» and that was a bit spicy. Would recommend mild if you’re faint of heart, but still want some spice. Their prices are fair, for about $ 34 I had ordered: wings, pad kee mao, tom kah, and mussamun curry.

Some notes: Very consistent. Better than A LOT of the Thai places I have been to in Portland. Clean interior and nice staff. The vegetables are not over steamed, so I can taste them. Fair portion sizes. Quick take out. Outdoor seating at lively intersection. Affordable lunch specials. Thank you!

I finally found some great Thai food in my ‘hood! The area I moved to in NoPo has PLENTY of Thai restaurants, but up until now, they were all just mediocre in my opinion. Mee Dee broke that losing streak. Friendly service, actual Thai people cooking in the kitchen, and some great recipes = a winning combination. We had the following: Tom Yum soup with tofu– They don’t mess around with the heat here, which I like. They have a 4 star heat scale, we asked for 3 on the soup, and it was definitely hot. The steam from the soup made my eyes water on its own. Great flavors though, lots of lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves. Mushrooms, onions, tofu. tom YUM is right. Papaya«pok-pok» salad– I fell in love with this dish while in Thailand, and I have to order it whenever I get the chance. Mee Dee’s version was alright; not as good as the soup or noodles, but still very tasty. We also ordered this at a 3 star heat level, but it came out rather mild. Pad Kee Mao– Excellent, soft noodles, with lots of smoky flavor from an obviously scorching hot wok. The noodles and veggies all had a good layer of char on them. This is probably the best pad kee mao I’ve had in Portland. Check them out!
