The Scene – This fixture on bustling Burnside is neither hip nor often crowded, but manages a brisk takeout business.

The service is efficient and carefully takes note of diners' preferences for spice. – – The Food – Thai Orchid offers a 95-item menu of Thai classics toned down slightly for American tastes.

They lie about what's in the food.

Worst food anywhere!!! Avoid always!!!!!

This ''restaurant'' is supposed to be good, but I found out that it has the most unhelpful service and bland, untasty, cruddy food. I recomend any other thai restaurant than this one. When I walked in, there was plenty of seats but a sign said to wait to be seated. I asked the lady if she would take us to our seat, and she ignored me. Finally, after 20 minutes, I got seated. Talk about lousy service!!!!
- Pros: Help me, will ya?
- Cons: Everything?

hands down best meal(s) of my life
by sissyportland
I love Thai Orchid. They're always happy to see me, the warm goodness of their noodles warms me from my soul to my toes, they never mess up an order, their service is consistent. Nothing makes me happier after a long day to go to Thai Orchid with a book or a good friend.
Thank you Thai Orchid, thanks you, thank you, thanks you.
- Pros: pad prik, pad thai, service, their curries, mmmmmm yum.
- Cons: parking
