Absolutely horrible restaurant. Food was incredibly mediocre at best (coming from a long time Thai food lover). Waitress was blatantly hating every second she was there; felt like she did not want to serve us from the start. Overall atrocious dine-in experience, I would highly suggest not coming here if you want to have a nice meal/experience.

We all love this food. A great Thai restaurant in the area

October 15, 2024

Such a terrible experience and horrible customer service. My family and I ordered delivery for dinner ( we have eaten here and gotten delivery on more than one occasion from this location before) however this time the food was terrible. While the food arrived hot, all 5 dishes had absolutely zero flavor. We ordered spice level 2, however the food had no spice and no flavor whatsoever. Because we spent about $200 on dinner in total we called as the quality was not where it has been before, we were simply told to "order higher spice level next time if we wanted flavor". Truthfully the food didn't even taste like any salt was even used. My aunt proceeded to go in person to the restaurant to see if anything could be done as this was a very disappointing experience, they refused to do anything. We will never eat here again. In a time and age where customer service is so important to establishments success, clearly it is not a priority here.

When we first moved to Kirkland back in 2002, Noppakao used to be one of our local favorites. I moved here from LA, re land of a thousand Thai restaurants, and i dared say the 2002 Noppakao was up there with some of the best I've had. Over the years ownership changed and so did the food and after several disappointing experiences we stopped going. On a quiet Monday evening we worked later than planned and had to scramble for dinner. Our usual go to restaurants were closed so we thought we should give Noppakao another try. There were only 2 other tables there with us. We ordered chicken wings, pad woo sen, and Lemongrass chicken. The chicken wings were not fresh, tasted like the wings had long expired before being fried and served up. After a couple bites i could not eat anything anymore and we just left with much sadness.

You can enjoy great Thai food after a stroll around the Juanita Beach area. This restaurant has an attractive exterior, interior, and really delicious menu options. The service was timely, and the prices are reasonable. We felt very welcome to stay after the meal and enjoy more beverages and good conversations. A large attractive fish tank is a special featured decor. Booth and table seating are optional. It is a wheelchair friendly place with a peaceful vibe.

The service was very friendly. Our food came out hot and the portions were large! The thai ice coffee was great. I love the high-back, large booths. Noise level was minimal and the restroom was clean. For reference, we arrived at ~6:30 pm on a Wednesday. We were seated right away. I will return soon. :)

It's been awhile since I've been here. The place has gotten a little worn in. My menu was a little sticky which I didn't like. The service was really good. I liked all the dishes we ordered...tom yum soup, 3 flavored trout, crying tiger beef salad, appetizer sampler. They are also on the passport which was a bonus. I would go back.

We ordered red curry and pad thai. If you following my other reviews you know these two kind of dishes we (almost) always order. I can say their food is one of the best thai food in Seattle's & surroundings. The worker doesn't talk too much which you might experience cold welcomes, but who cares as long as they do their job and the food is good, I'd like to recommend this place! The price on the menu doesn't up to date I guess,after we got the bill, but their price still reasonable. The only thing is I feel the toilet a bit creepy, I'd try not to go to the toilet if I visit the restaurant again.. good food!

The middle aged lady who was manning the counter as well as was responsible for taking the food order was downright rude. She had no patience to take the order, or answer any questions about the menu options, and sounded irritated and rushed. Such a bad customer experience

4 of us in our party of 7 mentioned to the staff that the tofu, tasted off. He responded by telling us we were wrong and that he fried it himself and tasted it and it was fine and he walked away. He then left the uneaten tofu at the table while he cleared all the other dishes. The tofu remained until we left. Disappointing as we loved this restaurant.

Ive never been to this Nopakkao, but its just as great as the one in Mil Creek! The Tom Kah soup is the best. Also good, the Pad See Ew and Thai Fried Rice! Food : 5/5

May 22, 2024

I wish I could give a zero. I ordered swimming rama through Doordash. The food arrived with raw spinach and some frozen chicken on top of it that smelled awful and some peanut sauce on the side! It was the worst Thai food Ive ever had in my whole life. I will never order food from this restaurant as it is only waste of time and money.

This restaurant gem for Thai food. The owner and staff are delightful. We frequent this restaurant regularly for dine in and take out and they always take great care of us. The food is delicious every time and its consistent. I regularly get the Massuman curry!! Yum! I highly recommend visiting here. The atmosphere is great too. They have several large fish tanks to complete the feel of being in Thailand. Parking: There are plenty of free parking spots in the parking lot outside.

The food was good, however, I had to ask 3 times to get extra sauce for my mixed vegetables and chicken which equated to more waiting and food getting colder. Server was nice but food is kinda on the spendy side. Parking: Plenty of parking except at meal hours.

Authentic Thai taste and hospitality! Tried the panang curry and cashew chicken, which were very tasty. Perfect (Thai) level spice with the authentic Thai chilis offered on the side to adjust for extra heat. Hands down the best Thai food we have had in the Seattle area, we ll be back to try the Tom Yum, pad Thai, more curries and mango with sticky rice. Topped off with excellent service and nice ambiance s

Been three times now and somehow they added zero flavoring or sauce to the phad see ew this time. Usually it is a black soy sauce if I remember but this was just rice noodles, broccoli, and beef.

Service was great. Multiple employees checked in with me to make sure I was doing OK and had everything I needed. I ordered 2 entrées and both had great flavor. I ordered a 4/5 star on the spice level for both and felt it. I drank my Thai iced tea and water faster than usual to dampen the spice...thats what I look for in a Thai restaurant, food that makes me feel the heat on the upper level spice meter. Pleased with the portion of food, I enjoy having leftovers. I will return!! Thank Noppakao!

This was a Go To for yrs for us for both dine in and take out. Always consistent and excellent. The food has been disappointing over the past yr. The dishes/ flavors we ve previously enjoyed aren t the same.Average at best. No longer worth the $$. Looking for a new Go To Thai.

Yes. This is it. Do come here. We love Thai cuisine and while it s almost always good we found this to be exceptionally tasty. The staff are so warm and welcoming. The prices are fair and the servings are generous. We look forward to dining here again soon. Our child appreciated be sat near the fish tank :) Vegetarian options: Tofu option for most dishes

December 22, 2023

Service was atrocious. The server didnt write down our order, then came back a few minutes later to verify the order again without writing it down. She didnt bring our potstickers, and when she brought us our main dishes, she brought us two of the same dish. At least it was what one of us ordered. We had to wait for the correct dish, and had to ask for potstickers again. She then asked if we still wanted the one plate that was incorrect, and we asked if we would need to pay, and she said yes.... Even though Im sure she just threw it out. What a waste of food. This seems to me that she just doesnt care, and doesnt take the time to do her job correctly.

Good Thai food! We had the crab dumplings and chicken satay for apps and they were tasty and also probably the largest portion of chicken on each skewer of satay which was great and perfectly cooked, not dry like some. Did all our dishes family style, 4 people, 4 entrees and had plenty for leftovers! Special fried Duck Curry was delicious, their different-named version of swimming rama, red curry, and pad Thai, all good. One thing is as a group some of us like spicy and some need pretty mild. We ordered everything 2 star and some dishes were a little too spicy for two of our group, they still enjoyed it, just with more water, lol. If youre sharing with a group like us and have non-spicy folks, order no stars or 1 star and then just ask for their tray of spices and oils to spice to taste if youre a spice lover, and everyone will be happy!

December 22, 2022

Ordered a noodle dish. It was so bad. It didn t have any flavor. I have been to a lot of Thai restaurants and this place by far is the worst one. Would not recommend it. I talked to other people too and they had the same bad experience.

Excellent Thai food. We have been going here for many years (lately ordering food), but always with 100% satisfaction. We also discovered a VERY TASTY soup, Tom Kah, which you really need to try. I have also had a couple types of curry (along with some other dishes), but my go-to dish would have to be the (wide noodle dish) Phad Kee Mao.

I ordered from DoorDash so payed over $25 (with tip) for pad Thai, but wow. I loved it and for the first time, since moving here over two year ago, a Thai restaurant actually read my request and acted on it and made it extra spicy!

Ordered Panang Curry & Phad Thai Curry: typical small portion that you would expect from a thai restaurant here in WA. Tasted good and worth ordering in the future. Get it if youre about quality. Phad Thai: The portion is big. I think I had this over 3 meals. Thats how much you get. Problem is there wasnt a lot of meat so the ratio of meat and noodle was off along with the veggies. It didnt taste spectacular and was just average. Get it if youre quantity. Forgot to mention. I had stomach problems from eating the pad thai every single time. Dont know what was in it (wasnt spicy) so just be aware.

Food was ok, but service definitely needs to improve. I got takeout here and although my food was ready, they didnt even realize it was ready and it was just sitting on the table ready to be pick up. Luckily i decided to look at the table and saw my food. Foodwise, The pad thai and calamari salad was pretty typical. The ribs was on the chewier side and the halibut was a little overcook as well. It is a big place so maybe it be better dining in

December 22, 2021

I used to order pad thai from here all the time. The spice-level has always been inconsistent. I would order the 4* spice level and some days it would be so spicy I could barely eat it and sometimes it would have no spice at all. A few months ago I found a hair in my pad thai and I thought it had turned me off of this place for good. But today my coworker and I decided to give them another chance because everyone makes mistakes. ANOTHER hair in my pad thai today, and the spice level was basically a 0 when I asked for a 4*. Never again.

Horrible food. If I could, I would have sent back all the dishes. We ordered lemon chicken and it was so unappetizing, we didn t even take a bite. It says it was supposed to come on a sizzling hot plate, which it didn t. We weren t even sure if it was chicken. We also ordered the Laird Gai or some chicken cabbage wrap dish and it was just disgusting. They add this raw couscous seeds in the meal which just stick to your teeth and taste horrible. All the food was so smelly and just made us feel nauseous. This place does not know how to make Thai food at all. My family and I won t be eating here ever again.

Emerald Curry on the menu says it includes fish balls but there were none. More of an issue with the Orange Sauce dish, the orange peels are cooked into the sauce making it taste horrible. Who eats orange peels?

Check your takeout order!!! Placed a $95 order for a smorgasbord of dinner options. Picked up on time. The paper bags were stapled shut so I didn t bother checking the contents. Bring it home (20 min drive) and discover that they forgot three different sides of rice. Thai food just isn t the same w/o rice. Called the restaurant and was essentially told to go fly a kite. The best they could do was refund the rice which they mentioned is FREE with most entrees. Yep, they offered to give me a refund for my FREE items. What a farce.

I order Uber eats on Thanks giving evening. After an hour there was no driver so I went to pick It up myself. Not only did they stay open late on TG so I could come get my food, they remade it so it was hot when I picked it up AND gave me some free spring rolls. Appreciate you guys.!

They have fresh and aromatic stir-fried noodle dishes, fried rice, and curry. Weve had takeout from here several times and every dish weve tried is good! The mango sticky rice is tasty as well. The monthly coupons in Valpak make this restaurant an even better value. I highly recommend this local spot for your next Thai food meal.

When we lived in Kirkland this was our go-to Thai restaurant. The food was always delicious and the service excellent. We ate there a few weeks ago for the first time in about five years, and were really disappointed. The Tom Yum soup (which used to be the soup I judged all other Thai restaurants by) was lukewarm, tasted bland, and was completely different from how it used to be made. The other foods we ordered were equally disappointing and the service, as others have pointed out, was quite slow even though the place was almost empty. I dont know if they changed owners or chefs or recipes, but something was definitely different. Makes me sad for what was.

Ordered take-out of 5 star spicy Tom yum chicken soup Se ew noodles w/tofu Panaang curry w/ beef Boyfriend said second best panaang he has had however not spicy at all (we eat Thai spicy relatively frequently) Tofu was well seasoned and portion was good for the noodles. However noodles were not cut so each one was a LARGE bite, meaning each noodle was 2.5 inch or longer and hard to maneuver. Also not 5 star spicy, more like 2 or 3. Broccoli extra crunchy Tom yum soup was disappointing with 1/4 - 1/2 tomatoes not cut ( like how am I supposed to get that much tomato in my mouth at once?) Not bad, not memorable

December 22, 2020

Horrible customer service. Lady who takes order on the phone does not speak English. She cannot understand the order, then she says I have other customers and hangs up. Lost the client forever.

December 22, 2020

Used to go there regularly since day they opened. Last time there found they must have sold as the food was terribly disappointing, not one good dish. Tom Kah Gai soup contained nothing but too-large mushrooms. Panang Curry NOT the formerly delicious curry. When even the fried rice is a loser, you have to listen and realize its a failure.

Just went to buy 5 order for my crew, and the lady at the front desk had a terrible attitude seems like I wasnt going to pay, they when finally got my order to go I notice that she didnt put any fork or spoon inside, so I ask her for some which she only gave 3, I told her that I order 5 dishes and she looked at me an told me you should told me how many u need in a really bad manner. Honestly havent try the food but I know for sure the service its the worst.

Really good food!!!! I ordered the Thai fried rice (chicken) and these crab wontons, and I was so presently surprised! The rice was exactly like expected, maybe even with a tinge of garlic, and they definitely did not hold back on the quantity as well. I asked for it spicy and spicy it was made. Crab wontons were really good as well, and the presentation for them was even better even though I ordered my food home via doordash. This is definitely going to be my go to thai restaurant (:

Since Thai kitchen is no longer in Kirkland my wife and I have been trying to find a new Thai place to eat at. This is the third time now that Noppakao have messed up our order, and left out food that should come with the order. How do you leave out the rice? Seriously!

Went here a while ago with some of my friends. They started us off by handing us a wanton soup bowl that was clearly not washed and dirty. Then, despite my friend specifying he wanted a specific not spicy dish with no peppers, they gave us a spicy noodle dish and peppers with no better quality than top Ramen. Finally the server, who was an extremely rude woman, came by when we had all tried to the noodles oh, that wrong dish, then never came back again with the right dish. When we confronted her about the dish, she demanded we pay for it and said what you gonna do, call cops? As we were resolving the issue and expressing our frustration, the busser came out of the back, slammed the table and went you pay or not!? resulting in the waiters son to start chanting fight fight fight. If I could give 0 stars I would, but this made for a pretty good story for a party after our dinner. To the people who rated this above one star, you must be a homunculus or a primeape, because you are not yet evolved enough to be deserved the title of being a human.

The waitress hardly paid attention to us, when we came in for lunch. It took her 10 minutes to take our order and we re in a limited lunch hour rush, since we had to go back to work. She took our order and told her we are ordering something to go, ahead of time, so it will be ready by the time we are done with our meal. So, after we re done, I asked for our bill and my to go order. She kept saying it s coming. But, she forgot to charge us with my to go meal and just letting the cook know of my to go order, just as we were about to leave the restaurant! This has been the worst service ever! They were so slow and unorganized!
