Thai Gold Triangle

Great service and bang for your buck! I went here for lunch and I checked in on Unilocal to get the free Thai iced tea. You also get a free cup of soup, which unfortunately was too spicy for me, but I thought that was a really good deal since I had only ordered one noodle dish! The restaurant is clean and air conditioned. The only thing I didn’t like was that there wasn’t a parking lot, but there is street parking and parking lots nearby that you can park at.

Thai Gold Triangle is the epitome of the perfect family owned-​restaurant, as evidenced by the sweet dynamic between the warm staff and their faithful regulars. The frequent sighting of younger sisters doing homework at the table next to the kitchen and the sound of GSN whirring in the background was also always comforting and whimsical.
Our usuals were Panang Beef (with beef!) Curry, Chicken Tom Kha, Pad See-​Ew with pork, and the occasional fresh roll with peanut sauce. All our favorite Thai staples, and we have yet to find a Tom Kha anywhere else that compares to theirs! There was also a Pumpkin Curry we tried during the fall season that was just perfect.
My fiancée and I LOVED this place when it was still open. It was our favorite fallback because naturally, they knocked it out of the park each visit with quality service and unbelievably delicious and affordable meals.
The day we drove past the building after the fire (we were out of town and weren’t aware of the tragedy), our hearts sank. We wish all the best for Lai and Linda – they were such a delight and we hope all the best for them in their future endeavors. If Thai Gold Triangle ever comes back, we will without a doubt be one of the first to line up at the door!

Pleasantly surprised by the food and I will happily return again and again! I usually go to Bai Tong for my thai food but a family style meal really adds up. I always drive by Thai Gold Triangle and decided to come in with a big group of 10 people. Everyone was surprised at the prices because everything was about $ 7.50! Big portions of yummy thai food and a free thai tea/​coffee with check in? Who wouldnt be happy?!
I ordered my favorite pad see ew which was so yummy but everywhere I go they seem to serve so little of it. I ordered the green curry with a side order of rice also which could’ve fed 3 people if you were ordering more food. Vegetables were super fresh in the curry and the coconut cream made the curry slightly sweet which aided with the spicyness (get 1 star if you want to be able to eat other food lol!). Service was also great, the waitress easily handled our group and very quickly too! She was happy to redeem our free drinks for us also.
Overall fast service and cheap but hearty food! Lunch special looks plentiful and I will have to try it someday.

This is one of my favorite Thai places in Renton! I’ve been coming here for a few years now and it’s still as good as the first time I tried it! This is one of the few Thai restaurants that offer Waterfall Noodle Soup (or TGT Soup). If you’ve never tried it, I highly recommend! It’s a lot more affordable than other Thai places in the Renton Highlands and they don’t skimp on the portion size! Whether I dine in or pick up, I’ve never had a bad experience here. They’re a small family restaurant that truly believe in customer service and good food! My only complaint with TGT is that they don’t offer Mango Sticky Rice, other than that they are fantastic!

Best Thai food out there for an amazing price!!! I’m definitely a foodie and love to compare different places, so I give my recommendation by the fact that I’ve tried almost every Thai place in King County and nothing compares. Don’t be fooled by their simple décor and sketchy location, the food is bomb! I try not to eat here often because I try bringing lunch, but I can’t stay away. They know me by name. Go give this place a try! And absolutely make sure to try their lunch soup with your meal!

Food overall is good and the prices are reasonable. Service is good and super friendly… Linda is awesome. :)

The have amazingly good food and service. It is a family favorite. We love the Thai triangle gold rice and the garlic beef!

This place was A-​OK. Nothing really stellar.
boyfriend got the Pad Kee Mao. He said it was missing something from the description. I got the Pad See Ew. It was really sweet but other than that totally bland. We were encouraged to not go too spicy (as they only use a three star system) so I picked 2 star — not spicy at all.
The Thai Iced Teas were also bland — would have liked more of that earthy tea flavor.
Food came out quickly but service was kind of slow. Prices and portions were good.

Think I found a new restaurant to add to the lunch rotation. I’ve been craving a good thai place with reasonable prices and this place fits the bill. The food came out quick and the service was good. I ordered the satay chicken lunch combo which came with soup, pad thai, white rice and 3 adorable little eggrolls. It was only 7.75 and was more than enough food for one person. I liked the pad thai because it wasn’t as overly sweet like most places yet the depth of the flavor was there. The chicken satay was pretty tasty too. It wasn’t overcooked which was nice. Overall this is a solid place to eat at. Check it out if you’re ever in the area. Parking is a little tricky since I have no idea where the parking lot was at… if they even have one. I just ended up parking on the street around the corner. Anyways… happy eating!
Oh and I almost forgot to mention, if you’ve got the Unilocal app, check-​in for a free thai iced tea!

I really like this little place. I know from the outside it looks a bit sketchy, but it not a bad place. The food is good, the family that runs the place is really friendly and sweet. When I feel like not cooking Thai food I walk down here to get my fix. The menu is simple, straight forward, sticking to common Thai food that the public knows, prices are good and portions are plenty.

Would give this place 3.5 stars. Food was good for it’s price. But could be better. Servings are big but lack in taste. In addition, there is little to no parking.
Check in to get a free thai iced tea though!

Had Pad Thai and Spring rolls– my go to. Best in Renton so far and very reasonable. WAY BETTER than Thai 65 in the Landing and half the price

I ordered:
Pineapple fried rice– best pineapple fried rice ever. The rice is not too soggy, but not too dried either. It has a generous amount of pineapples and cashew in it.
Tom kah soup with chicken– the best part of the soup is the chicken, it’s so soft and tender, great on a cold day.
Larb Gai– I have had this dish made by my friends, and this place is the closest to their authentic taste. When I ordered it elsewhere, the flavor isn’t as pungent. If you like spicy food, order this and max out the stars, it’s spicy, sour, and fishy, just like the homemade ones.
Pad Thai– I think this was the worst dish I ordered, I didn’t like how the noodles were so soft. I had better elsewhere.
Sizzling rice lettuce wraps– I never saw this at any other Thai restaurant so I decided to give it a try. It’s rice that they fried, and is now like a rice crispy, but soaked in sauce and meat (kind of like the crispy vermicelli in Mongolian beef… if you know what I mean). They serve it with strips of roman lettuce and you’re suppose to put the on top of the lettuce and eat it together. I liked it, lots of flavor in one dish!
Pad See Ew– I was persuaded by my boyfriend to order this because he wanted to try it. I told him he will be the only one eating it. I usually steer away from this dish because I don’t care for wide noodles and I have never tried any Pad See Ew that I enjoyed. Somehow this restaurant makes me CRAVE this dish! Their flavorful chewy noodles is making me beg for more. By the end of the dish we were fighting for the last bite!
Atmosphere: Very small place, about 10 – 12 tables.
Service: I like the older lady here, she is so friendly.
Overall: My all time favorite Thai restaurant right now. Their price is so cheap, and their food satisfies my taste buds. I want to try the rest of their menu, but the items we ordered tasted so good, I am not sure if I can go and not order those again.

I’m so far behind on my Unilocal reviews, but here’s a go at catching up.
I came here to Thai Gold Triangle for dinner with a friend after work earlier this month. Thai Gold Thai is located very near the now-​under-​total-​renovation Renton Public Library. It’s a safe bet that the restaurant’s name references the triangular shape of the block upon which the restaurant sits. Unfortunately, the only parking is on the street.
While we were here, two other tables were occupied, but it seems the bulk of Thai Gold Triangle’s business is take-​out.
The restaurant is comfortable and clean, with very good service. I lost count of how many times our server refilled my glass with cucumber-​flavored water (though I’m a little uncertain about cucumber-​flavored water as a concept). I did think service was very good, but my friend Penny was somewhat miffed because she thought that our server paid way too much attention to the baby with the couple at the next table. But I suspect those people were regulars.
We ordered an array of dishes. We requested angel wings, Tom Kha soup, garlic stir fry with pork and lastly, Phad Thai with chicken. The angel wings (deep-​fried chicken wings stuffed with glass noodles, peas and carrots) were good but could have stood to have less peas. They also needed more seasoning; they were rather bland. The Tom Kha soup was delicious (perhaps my favorite dish of the night), but there were quite a few woody pieces of a vegetable (ginger?) in the soup that I had to pick out.
The stir-​fry with pork with broccoli was good, with a generous serving of pork. Our least favorite dish was the Phad Thai — the noodles were gluggy and slippery and the dish was much too sweet.
But overall, this is a decent Thai restaurant and, I think, a good option for lunch in the Renton area. It’s certainly much better than the Thai restaurant in the Landing (which shall go unnamed, since I haven’t reviewed it yet).

I got beef Thai fried rice to go (sans cilantro and tomatoes). They put it in a nice big, flat box that was way easier to eat out of than Chinese food containers are. I’ve had issues with squishy beef before; theirs wasn’t squishy, but it was a little dry/​chewy.
The rice was sort of sticky/​mushy; I prefer firmer rice. The onions were the perfect size and sweetness. I’m not used to carrots in my fried rice, but a couple here and there weren’t bad for a change in texture. I’m also not used to big pieces of scallion; not sure that added anything.
The portion was a good size, and I liked that there was plenty of beef. I don’t like spicy food, so I ordered it with no stars, and the flavor wasn’t bad; maybe just slightly bland.
I doubt I’ll go here again, but it wasn’t the worst fried rice I’ve ever had.

Got above average phad Thai for below average prices
Worth driving to.
My friends got the chicken phad Thai and another dish I don’t remember.
They also had the coconut ice cream. They said the ice cream was good too.

I really enjoyed eating at this place.
I came in around 11.30 (before the Lunch rush) when everything was fresh! I walked in and I was the only one (I like that because I get all the attention from the server).
I was greeted by this very beautiful woman and I told her I wanted to eat here. She gave me a menu and asked what i wanted to drink. I drink water % 99 of the time.
She gave me a couple mins and when she came back I told her that I would to eat the PANANG CURRY, Spicy as you can make it!
During this time she was nice enough to turn on netflix to the action movie «G.I. Joe retailation» which I appreciated her (but maybe she wanted to watch it herfelf… I dont know? I want to assume she was catering to me, lol. Could be wrong)
Right after I placed my order she came back out with a small bowl of soup, it had a lot of vegatables in it like corn, egg, carrots, tufu, etc (see pic) I asked her what it was and she told me it was a house soup with veges similar to a «sweet and sour» soup. If YOU ARE NOT INTO SPICY, DONT EAT THE SOUP, it does have a bit of a «kick». I tried it and I was impressed, by far this was the best bowl of soup I have gotten before a meal! it was also the most hearty seeing that it had tons of veges in it!
About 5 min (max) after I placed my order I got my food. I was overall impressed of how much curry I got. I am a not a small guy and even after eating this panang curry I had some left over. SO I asked for another side of brown rice and a cup and now I have a dinner ready to go!
The Panang Curry only costed $ 7.50 + tax if you order brown rice (which I did) its an extra $ 1.50 (it really should be only $ 1, but oh well, its worth eating borwn rice so much more over white)
Also if you check in on Unilocal for the first time you get a deal for a FREE THAI TEA, I decided to save mine for when I come back here, which I plan to do!
Overall the most food for your money and I look forward to trying other dishes there such as the popular pineapple fried rice and the Pad See Ew.

This place is easy to miss – we actually drove past it while on the lookout. Once we finally found it, we were greeted by a bubbly owner in an otherwise empty restaurant (it was the 4^th of July, to be fair). The Unilocal check-​in scores you a free Thai iced coffee/​tea, so definitely take advantage of that. My iced coffee was rather sweet, but I can’t complain too much since it was free after all.
I got the spicy basil fried rice. It was kind of oily, but well-​spiced and flavourful. The serving was also generously sized and very reasonably priced. All in all, a nice, cheap meal – perfect for a quick lunch stop.

A year later after first trying Thai Gold, it’s still the absolute best.
My girlfriend and I try to visit at least once a month, and the food/​service never seems to disappoint! We love the quaint and quiet atmosphere inside, mixed with the amazing taste of the food. You can’t ask for much else.
Our main go-to’s are the mini fried spring rolls, green curry, panang curry and thai tea! Also, if you check in on Unilocal you get a thai tea for free.
Also, be sure to stop in for lunch and check out their awesome special. A whole ton of food, for not a whole ton of $.

Went today with a gal pal for a lady lunch date. The lunch special is great. The mini egg rolls were so adorable. The rice was a tad dry. The peanut sauce was pretty thick for my preference.
They got pretty busy after we arrived and I felt bad as there was only 1 girl to help everyone. Overall. a great time.
