Thaiku - Seattle

Yum! What a cute place! Tiny, adorable and great food! We had the salad rolls, chicken satay, green beans pad Thai everything was delish! I was torn about getting Thai Tea because it can be too sweet but it was PERFECT! Parking is hard as Al ways in this area but go here anyway!

Really like the location, the seating options, and ambiance. Everyones food was very well prepared and displayed. Very appetizing. Better flavor than just about any Thai restaurant back in Anchorage AK where we traveled from. Was expecting my Pad Thai with shrimp to be a little more zesty tasting (tamarind sauce, yum), but after using all the pepper on the side of the plate, along with leftover spicy peanut sauce from chicken skewers, it was soooo delicious. Our experience was that the food had spice you could taste, which was good. However, many people will want to ask for a bit more kick or get some extra sauces on the side. Drizzle spicy peanut sauce on your Pad Thai.

Okay the food was delicious !! So flavorful and interesting, i slurped up all the sauce off the plate. BUT we went at a very busy time, took probably 0.5-1 hour to get a table. Once we had a table service was amazing and super fast. Also the portions were very small for their cost, i wish we had twice as much food. We did ask for extra rice to soak up the sauce from the dishes. Incredibly delicious but next time i’d order as takeout and get extra food!!

We brought visiting parents here last night after hearing good things. It was by far their favorite meal of the trip. We shared everything. The mieng kahm was lovely, light, and interesting. Gaeng panang was described as a religious experience. I really enjoyed the khao soy. Everyone liked their cocktails, and the Radiant Heart was one of the most interesting and delicious drinks I 've had in a long time. The staff were lovely. We want to visit many times in the future. PS We had a round of great beers at Holy Mountain before dinner. Their space is welcoming and well designed, the bartenders were kind, and their merch awesome. The background music was metal that was NOT blasting. We all loved it.

The restaurant consistently delivers high quality food with a classy interior. I appreciate that they have maintained their excellence for over 20 years.
