“absolute banger of a restaurant. if you're craving hearty, flavorful east asian cuisine and a homey down to earth atmosphere, this is your place.i grew up going to hole in the wall Chinese restaurants and this hit the spot. big portions, delicious, good vibes.“
“Authentic? Absolutely! How can it not be? The chef is authentically Hmong, his experiences are Hmong, and thus his food is ? Hmong! Traditional? Not completely. I love it for what it is…an evolution of the Hmong food diaspora here in America! While visiting my beautiful niece and her little family, I had a strong hankering to eat Hmong food. She suggested this brilliant establishment. The wait was short and the portions abundant. While eating I was transported back to mom/dad’s kitchen, and the after school meals they would prepare for us! The sausage is excellent and had all the flavors of Hmong new year. Lemongrass, fat, herbs, salt…and crunch! The pork was perfectly cooked and we loved dipping it in hot sauce along with the sticky rice. I highly recommend this authentic Hmong dining experience and can not wait to dine at Vinai next time I visit. I just wish Seattle had something similar. Thank you Chef Yia for moving our food into the future while preserving our past! Cheers!“
“This place is definitely one of my favorites. The food is delicious and fast. I always get the Panang curry or the pad Thai. I really like how comfortable the small and quiet dining area is with all the plants. Super friendly family-owned place. I'm always so surprised that this place isn't super busy because it should be!Vegetarian options: Most dishes have a choice of meats, tofu, or veggie“
“Here's my review. I'll break it into chunks where certain topics might matter to you (:Parking:- plenty of street parking, freeDining:- waiter was very nice and very attentive- was able to sit at a table quickly- food came out pretty fast- bathroom and inside the restaurant was clean- plenty of seating inside tooFood:- the spring rolls were sooooo delicious! (: the peanut dipping sauce was sweet but very flavorful. I think this is probably one of my favorites now for fresh spring rolls. The shrimp chicken combo was also very nice and flavorful.- chicken pad see ew: it's interesting to have bell peppers and squash in it, but I like having more veggies in my dishes (makes me feel a bit more healthier XD). The chicken isn't like rubbery or hard but shreds nicely when you bite into it. There's a light tint of a flavor like sesame oil. The dish wasn't super oily.Overall, I had a very pleasant dine in experience after my two hikes. This is also just a very cute town area to explore. I would recommend here as a new place to check out and a town to explore ?“
“Are you looking for an authentic Thai experience? Then look no further! Flamin Thai has plenty different of options to eat for everyone. The sushi was fresh fresh fresh! The service was excellent! The environment made me feel like I was back in Thailand! I’ll be back.“
“This is by far the best Thai that we have in the neighborhood! I usually get pad Thai and red curry anytime I try a new place, and I’ve been disappointed with the two other places nearby—but not here! I asked for pad Thai Flamin hot with tofu and it’s one of the best I’ve had in a very long time. The tofu was perfectly cubed and fried without being greasy, and the sauce a rich brown color with notes of peanut, tamarind, and lime (slightly sweet and tangy), and the spice was perfectly hot without being overpowering. Most other places give me mild/medium when I ask for Thai hot, and this place actually listened. The red curry was also memorable with bright flavors from the Thai basil and veggies. Poured over rice, it’s a heavenly combo perfect for a cold night. I am so grateful to have a new go-to Thai spot! I hope they stick around for a long time.“
“Found this little gem thanks to DoorDash. We now order from here at least twice a month. We like the pineapple tofu red curry, red curry, and pad Thai. Food is excellent. Our only complaint is that the quantity varies from time to time - for example, sometimes, the rice container is only just half full. Same with the curries also. We still return because the food is simply that good.“
“Restaurant was empty when we got there and packed within 30 minutes - all the tables were reserved. With it being such a small spot I definitely recommend making a reservation when possible. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful, she was detailed and helpful in answering our questions and recommending drinks. We got a mix of sushi, thai, and ramen, all of which were equally delicious! You could really tell the food was freshly made and of great quality. I recommend trying the thai iced coffee as well if you are up for a cold, sweet, umami drink. A word of the wise for those of us a little less accustomed to asian spice (if you know what i mean...) - please don't lie to yourself about how much heat you can handle, the spicy ramen is SPICY. The “level 3” heat we ordered was a lot. Do yourself the favor and get a 1 if possible and ask for some of the hot sauce on the side so you can add it in to your liking. My friend was absolutely humbled. He was all but in tears. I have never seen his face so red. I think our waitress got a real kick out of this as well (she did try her best to warn us about The Spicy, so it was all in good fun) ? Overall, a great little spot. We'll be returning for sure!!“
“Our first time here... The food was great! All but 2 tables in the main section were full. Spicy selection from 0 to 5... we got a few 3's and a 2.Chicken Green Curry at 2 was great.Beef Red Curry ordered a 3 but seemed sweet and lighter in spice than the green Curry.The seafood salad 3 was goodAnd the chicken fried rice at 0 was tasty... with no spice at all.Egg rolls and Thai sausageThe price for 4 adults was $100 without tipParking: As it was put first time here we are not up on the parking... for us it was difficult.“
“Great food my only problem is portion for 35$ I’d expect more from them. I try to go every month because the food is great. Too much noodle not enough protein and vegetable. I recommend the lobster egg rolls the sauce is amazing and Drunken Noodles are great just order extra protein and veggie.“
“Server was a bit strange.The food completely made up for her.When you walk in the door, there is no fish smell.Very important!The food temperature was perfect.Texture, flavor, all spot on!We drove 25 minutes to get here, and will absolutely be back.“
“This is the only restaurant besides phams that’s still open from when I worked at mama Ds kitchen. I always loved the fried rice especially shrimp the shrimp are big and they give you your money worth! The boba is amazing thick juicy sweet! I just love sabbai Chinese! Please don’t ever shut down!“
“I had an amazing meal yesterday. FYI - The restaurant does have a service charge. If you don’t like it too sweet, you can request for no sugar or less sweet. Our meal was amazing last night.Shrimp & chicken spring rolls 8/10 It was delicious.Sai Oua 10/10 It’s a Thai herbal sausage. You can taste all the spices and herbal such as lemongrass, ginger, galangal etc. sausage was not dry. It was great!Papaya salad (Lao style) 10/10 so good, so delicious. The fish paste that was in it is not too strong. I like it less tamarind and this was good!Crying tiger 10/10 the steak was cooked to a medium perfectly. The dipping sauce that comes with it was delicious.Pricing is definitely on the higher side, but for the portion you get, the taste, service was really great. I always come back and recommend people to come eat here.“
“Very chill environment and pleasant music selection. The food was prepared timely and tasted great. My server Tyler was amazing, excellent customer service, and very kind (he should get a raise). Good vibes, good food, and a nice and calm atmosphere… what more can I ask for haha.“
“Great food and drinks await you at Hai Hai. Hai Hai offers a delicious offering of vegetarian friendly appetizers and mains. The food is fresh, flavorful and the service is attentive.Southeast Asian flavors are even infused into the cocktails, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. You won't regret visiting!“
