Best Thai in Portland. My brother had roommates from Thailand and I miss their cooking. This is the next best thing. I'm usually to hungry to wait, but it IS worth it. a great date place. Everything is made to order and I love that. The only server is the husband and he was very nice, We make time to dine here.  View Less View More

Worth the Wait... if you have the time. Do NOT go to khun pic's if (a) you are you going out to eat with someone you do not like and will have a hard time chatting with them for a while.

(b) you have somewhere to be and want to go someplace fast.

Bottom Line: it is worth the wait... if you can wait.

A part of me does not understand their business model. They sent three tables away when we were there bc the customers did not want to wait. With one extra kitchen staff and one extra server they could have so much more business. But, alas, they have not changed over the many years that they have been there so it must be a choice.

They have the BEST peanut sauce.  View Less

Easily the Best Thai in PDX. As mentioned by other reviewers, Khun Pic is staffed only by a husband-wife team, so patience is a requirement when you eat there. But you will be handsomely rewarded by excellent food. This is the only place I've found in the area that serves REAL Pahd Thai (no ketchup). The only other Thai restaurants that I've been to that match the level of food qualtiy and authenticity is Thai Kitchen in Spokane (also husband-wfe run, and requiring patience when busy), and restaurants in Bangkok. This is the real deal, kids.  View Less View More

best Thai in Portland. If you don't know about patience for great quality food, then don't bother going to Khun Pic and then writing a crappy review about it. This is the only place in Portland that you can get authentic, wonderful, priced right food. Khun herself does all the cooking and her husband is the front operation. It's small but they do it great. You've never had such fresh flavors in thai food in portland. Everywhere else you go they use pre packaged vegetables, she cuts everything to order and serves table to table, so yes, it can be a bit slow, but completely worth it. It's amazing how the last reviewer ripped them apart, I have a feeling that there palet for thai food must be the carts downtown. But that's ok, Khun's is a hidden little secret for most of us, so don't bother going if you can't handle the kicked back experience that might not be as quick as your fast food thai.  View Less View More
