The noodles and vegetables are fresh and really good. I enjoyed the food. They give very big portions and it is a great value. I would recommend coming here for the Thai food. I enjoyed my pad see ew dish.

I’ve only had the boneless fried chicken and fried rice. Delicious and moderately priced food. The crispy texture of the chicken perfectly complements the fluffy rice, creating a satisfying meal. Each bite bursts with flavor, making it hard to resist ordering more. The casual atmosphere of the restaurant adds to the overall experience, inviting diners to relax and enjoy their food. I can’t wait to explore more of the menu on my next visit.

Delicious place I found. Easy access to 167 off 212th. The staff was super friendly and the food was amazing. I had gyoza and pad se ew with pork. It was quite but lots of take out orders were happening. This place is a 💎.

This place hits! I’ve had so many people recommend this place, finally found the talk of the talk town. We even got the food to go and it still was so good!! No doubt it would 10/5 stars, if we ate at the restaurant. The chicken karaage is on another level - you must get this!. If you’re looking for huge portions, good food - look no further.

First went here, back in 2018, and they’re still amazing. Serving sizes are generous, for both, dine-in and take out. For the size, i’d argue the price is very fair. Highly recommend anything on their menu but especially their karaage (they have a house sauce that pairs perfectly). Theyre family run, and the food really never misses, can’t recommend this place enough. 11/10

This place is the real deal. Thai restaurants normally have WAY TOO MANY ITEMS on the menu to be able to turn out the best product possible. Not Saya, the menu is smaller, but the food is absolutely great.
This place is family owned, been there 30+ years, service is great. Lunch in VERY busy, dinner as well. I've eaten here 4 times in the last month. That says a lot, the fried chicken, Pad-see-ew, Pad-thai, fresh rolls, Thai iced tea is 100% on point.
I've lived in SE Asia, Thailand is one of those places, they call it "land of a million smiles." This is a reason to smile. Check it out yourself, value, flavor, price? Cannot be beat.

We decided to try Saya based on good reviews. We were not disappointed.
It’s casual restaurant with Thai/Teriyaki/Pho. There’s no fancy decorations. Just straight forward food and service. We aimed for Thai this time.
The pad Thai was decent. We enjoyed the green curry as well. The amount of rice which comes with the order was not much. Wish a bigger rice bowl is offered.
The service was very courteous and friendly. We appreciate their flexibility to substitute certain ingredients.

I have been going here since the early 2000,s. So far have not found any place that comes close to their Pad Thai. (IMHO as I am not a Pad Thai expert) Even after moving away from the area will take every chance I can get to make the 1hour trek there. From when I was going multiple times a week to now what seems like twice a year, it’s nice to have the owner there to chat to and willing to get to know her customers.

The chicken karaage is so so so juicy and crispy! The sauce that comes with it is so delicious, and the portions were much bigger than I expected. Staff were so friendly too! 100% will be back.

So disappointed with the service,i took my family here for my cousins birthday but was treated unwelcome by the Lady that was very rude.Please be respectful and have some manners for your guest.

OMG THE BEST FRIED CHICKEN Karaage I've ever had , it's so crispy and always fresh 😋 the owner and the staff are very friendly, a great place to go in get some great food... You must try this I promise you won't be disappointed with that chicken and then when you dip it into the sauce that they give you 🤤💯

Nice lunch spot. Quick service and the food was really good.

The food was amazing the experience was a 10/10. Rayan was an amazing sever made us laugh had a great time and our experience even better.

Family own and owners are great. Food portion is big so be prepared to eat.

A small restaurant serving thai/Japanese cuisine. The portions are big and the food is AMAZING! 10/10 for me. I always do take out coz I want to enjoy and take the food in within the comfort of my own living room. I've gotten food for a group and also just for my little family and this place has never disappointed.

Already tired of this place being closed when google states it open.

Its driving away customers. And it ls not hard to change. If you dont care if your customers are misled by driving all way only to be met by a closed sign during stated open hours, what else do they not care about?

Ridiculously good food that is actually SPICY, not just Washington spicy. I will keep going back until they ban me for eating too many noodles!

Very good. Chicken carage and fried rice is bomb

Chicken karaage was fantastic, Tempura especially the sweet potatoes where great and my uncle loved Thai green curry

Shrip tempura shrimp not cleaned. Full of poop. When your dish is just the shrimp and the batter you NEED to clean them. The rice was dry and undercooked. Total waste of a meal. I will not be back and do not recommend at all

Their chicken is the bomb. I no longer live in Washington state, but I wish I could get it shipped to Maryland.

The chicken is to die for. We used to grab two of the fried chicken plates to go. We honestly had more than enough for the whole office on a Friday afternoon. It's a great snack for sharing and your company will be sure to agree! 💯💯

Saya has been in my life since 99! Forever a happy customer!

Love the kerogee chicken

I have been going here for over 30 years. I travel now 35 miles to get food from there. The owners and staff have always been as amazing as the food they serve. I have watched their family grow up, as they have watched mine.

Love the fried chicken and spicy chicken katsu!

The spicy karage is better than any other place I’ve had for Japanese fried chicken.

Parang Curry is watered down its so watery it filled up the container with a LIL MEAT in it.
Pad Thai I only tasted sauce that's it. Also a LIL MEAT IN IT.
Spring roll taste NOTHING, no mint,basil just lettuce and shrimp
total of $44.00 what a waste of money.
I will never come back.
VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!

Very friendly customer service! The pork fried rice is 2nd to NONE!! Large portions and reasonable pricing. Love this place!

Wonderful Men working the front and blessed hands of the man who cooked! I've been back home to WA for about three weeks and finally Saya provided my family delicious food like how it was when I was a kid! Thank you! Had Chicken Karaage that was so F-ING GOOD, Tofu Pad Thai 4 and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT, and Seafood Fried rice that was yummy! Well certainly be a returning patron to try something else on the menu!

Always amazing food, 14 years going here and the few times I've had issues they are happy to make it right.

buen arroz con pollo

Everything we had was delicious with great service!!

Great food!

Get the Karaage Chicken! It's the best fried chicken you'll ever eat.

The karage was excellent and a nicely-sized portion, but it wasn't nearly as spicy as I'd hoped.

AMAZING service!!! We had a large group with several kiddos and felt so at home.

Love this place. Will travel from Federal Way for some Saya!

Sad to say it wasn't good, I ordered the pad thai and it just tasted bland. Also they used vermicelli noodles which I dont usually see so this dish didn't taste anything like pad thai, texture and flavor wise. ):

Great food, good prices. Friendly staff.

Great portions. Delicious food. Highly recommend!

Great food and service,

Best Phad Thai on town!!!!

Want great Thai food fast and friendly?

Great food

best karage chicken

Comida rica y muy buena atención

Sad to say I'm disappointed. This is my second time giving this place a try. I ordered stir fry chicken but there was no chicken in my meal. Nothing like searching through your food for one piece of meat to go with all the vegetables. Sad $23 for a plate full of vegetables. Not bad about the vegetarian

I decided to try this place on a whim and I am glad I did. The gai yang was amazing, the service was fast and everyone was friendly. I will definitely be back.

Always good!

Best fried chicken in the area.

Takeout was ready quickly and the chicken pad thai was delicious. Large portion for the price. Employees were very friendly. Will definitely be back!

Love everything about this place. The waiters was so attentive and friendly and super fast!! The food was absolutely phenomenal, the flavors were well balanced and so delicious. The gaiyang and cashew himma parn were both incredible and with so many selections I don't think I will ever get tired of them!

This place hits! I’ve had so many people recommend this place, finally found the talk of the talk town. We even got the food to go and it still was so good!!

Excellent service

Foods is great. I live 20 minutes away but the drive is worth the food!

We have gone to Saya for over 30 years. Every visit has been wonderful and best food. Thank you Saya.

Love it for the last 40 years

Great Thai food!

Absolutely love this place! It is so good and the always remember us! Amazing food! You can’t go wrong with them!

This place has a legendary status to generations of people. My husband grew up going there and his dad showed several other people he knew when he was young too. And every single person my husband has told about this place has become a regular. I was resistant at fist because I'm not crazy about red meat anymore, and the moo yang is what everyone says is the best (it is super good). But I get the gai yang (chicken) and it is just unlike anything else I've ever had. Whoever opened this restaurant long ago had a vision from God above who said "go now, my child, fill the hearts and bellies of people off of 167 for generations", and so it was done. Praise be.

Arguably the best restaurant in KENT, WA! Chicken options are unbeatable not even Seattle chicken can compare. Honestly this place is worth the trip every time

Great and delicious food. The personal was nice and fantastic atmosphere for family.

Favorite place for lunch or supper. Food is fantastic, service is great, family friendly & quick service with smiles.

Great good!

I work in the area and love going to Saya, we use it as a team bonding thing when we want to celebrate something. I love the cashew himma parn.

The server were very friendly and the food was so delicious and good portions!

Staff grate, simple and tasty

Best chicken in the greater Seattle area and such a well ran team!

No salt, pretty bland, looks fresh though. Rice is over cooked, not really crispy

Great little Thai place with wide selection, great food and great service.

Best Bolivian restaurant in Washington DC.

This place is NEVER a wrong choice. Food is always excellent. Served quickly and portions are more then enough. I recommend the Seasame Balls. Soooo good.

I love this place! Tons of flavor, great customer service, food is well cooked (no rubber shrimp), and the serving sizes are generous. Must try = Karaage chicken (so crispy, and boneless!), Pad Pak Raumit, and Drunken noodles.

Outstanding Panang Pad Thai!

This place is typically busy once they open up. I would highly suggest their Japanese fried chicken it's delicious. My company even orders catering from this place quite frequently. Highly recommend.

Amazing food, Amazing service each time I go for either lunch or dinner. Would give 50 stars if possible for how amazing they are.

I have been going there for 30 years and the quality and the taste of the food is always amazing!!

Owner was awesome give it a try

I'm thai so I got pad ka pow it was ok guess I was just use to mama making hers

Open for years & years.
Food is still great.

Everything was great and the food was delicious. And we had enough to take for lunch the next day. I'm curious about the other places around here, but this is my new go-to spot.

Been going here for about 15 years. Great place, awesome food and service. I'll be coming back for many years to come. I don't know why it took me 15 years to write a review.

Possum grade awesome.

Favorite place in the area to eat my favorite Karage Fried Chicken. They've got a good selection of food. I recommend you stop in and try the Karage Fried Chicken!!!!

Our family loves this place, it is always a special treat to eat here. Denise will never forget your name. Good portion sizes, we order a few dishes to share. Karaage is our favorite!

We decided to try Saya based on good reviews. We were not disappointed.
It’s casual restaurant with Thai/Teriyaki/Pho. There’s no fancy decorations. Just straight forward food and service. We aimed for Thai this time.
The pad Thai was decent. We enjoyed the green curry as well. The amount of rice which comes with the order was not much. Wish a bigger rice bowl is offered.
The service was very courteous and friendly. We appreciate their flexibility to substitute certain ingredients.

The beef teriyaki tasted like pot roast with partially cooked onions (no teriyaki sauce) mixed with salad on the same plate and rice in a separate bowl. That isn't teriyaki. The lemonade was watered down and the fortune cookie was so hard it was inedible.

Delicious food with a good variety to choose from on the menu. Great value for your money. Staff are friendly and helpful.

This was our first time there. My husband, my 2 year old son and myself. My son was not being the most cooperative 2 year old as toddlers can be. The patience and kindness that was shown by all Of the people working was amazing. They food was great and they tolerated all of our random requests. I hope the nice lady that was working tonight knows how much her efforts in pleasing my kiddo was appreciated. Thank you!
-signed a stressed out mama

I will drive out of my way to stop here to go get food. The gai Yang (or however it is spelled) is incredible. Wonderful people that work here as well.

Food is fine. Website prices are about half what they charge when you go to pick up your food, which is unfortunate. For people trying to stay in a budget it stinks to pay 18.00 for a workday lunch when their website says 10.99. When I mentioned it to the guy he said "oh yeah, that hasn't been updated for a long time..."

Fabulous food & generous portions!!

The food is really good! Especially the Karaage chicken!!

I have returned, the first time i ordered food from here i didn't have time to write a proper review. Lol the fried chicken is so delicious, crispy and generous size plate lunch... yes omg. One of the best fried chicken. Original style also its a one of a kind in a good way.

This time round 2, i called in and asked for the saya delight. Two big plates to go, one was phatthai noodles and another was big plate Japanese rice my favorite and lots thai style pork bbq and curry chicken. All flavors was authentic.
Good thing about this restaurant, the employees are very cool and happy, even though the restaurant is packed with customers and very busy. They are not rude, that's awesome. Five stars earned

Great restaurant excellent food and service. Take out chicken karaage was flying out the door…bought some myself for later.

Great restaurant! Our go-to for the best chicken karaage around as well as wonderful, friendly service. They really get to know you here ❤️ Perfect location for picking up lunch or dinner right off the highway. AAA+!

Make sure you are ready to eat. Portions are amazing.

Everything was delicious!! And the service was amazing.

Great service and excellent food !
Highly recommended.

Just passing thru for the night and read previous reviews. Both the Pad Thai and Drunken noodles were outstanding. Large portions, good prices, comfortable atmosphere and friendly service. Can't ask for more!

Great food n service

This is one of the best places I've gone too. 😋 The grilled chicken is amazing and the pho broth is yummy also.

I definitely would get the grilled chicken meal again. It's not on the menu but omg it's the best. Comes with rice as well.

Definitely will come back again.

This place is awesome! Has the best place to get karaage chicken 🐔.

Guzel yemekler ve guzel servis

Their seafood drunken noodles is the best that I have ever tasted. Staff is always friendly and fast service.

Update (8/18/23) - Since I don't work in Kent anymore, today was the first time in a year that I visited this restaurant. I have been longing for some seafood drunken noodles and there is no place that makes it as good as this restaurant. The reason why I dropped one star is because they had cut back on the basil, and I could barely taste the basil. I waited about 10 minutes in line to place my to-go order. There were two other customers waiting in line to place their to-go order. The phone rang 3 times, and each time, the lady took the phone order right away instead of helping the customers who were already in line and waiting. I understand that they don't want the customer to hang up the phone and lose business, but customer who is physically in the restaurant waiting already can easily just walk out. I would have if I didn't want to go to the 99 ranch market down the road. I received better service from the young man and young girl who normally worked at the count.

Mükemmel ! Yurtdışı seyahatlerinde uğranması gereken bir yer.

Çok iyi bir yer

Their chicken are incredible. It’s a must have. Their Penang curry was okay. It was little watery for me. But I will be back for all their chicken dishes.

Not a fancy restaurant by ANY means, but the food was really good and the folks who served us were really nice. Chicken karaage is the best I’ve ever had. The spicy karaage was an interesting twist on the former. Our server recommended the gai yang which was also outstanding. We also had their panang curry, which we felt would have been better if thicker - it was more like a soup than a tradition panang. Fresh rolls were pretty standard fair.

Very good.

Yiyecekler lezzetliydi ve yemek hızlı geldi. Güzel bir atmosfer.

Rahatlıkla güzel yemek yiyebileceğiniz harika bir yer.

Çok güzel bir yer

They are working on spam comments by WhatsApp groups. I have never been there,dont know anything about them. But the thing they are trying to do is not proper way for a fair service.

Perfect

Çok iyi

Mükemmel bir yer

çok güzel konforlu aile restorantı

Gerçekten çok güzel

Herşey süper herkese tavsiye ederim

A little hole in the wall Thai resteraunt. Their teriyaki sauce is something special. I also had their shrimp spring rolls and with their peanut dipping sauce made them special. Worth trying, I will go back.

The food was fantastic. Service was excellent. It's a great place to enjoy a good meal.

Always amazing for me been eating here over 25 years. Great family atmosphere. Lots of good memories.

Mükemmel

ben hayatımda bu kadar lezzetli bi yerde yemek yemedim mükemmel

Harika 👍

I have been eating with the family restaurant for 20+ years. Amazing food and service.

hersey cok guzel.......

Gayet kaliteli nehiz bir mekan

Amazing fried chicken, and pad Thai was pretty dang good too.

Gerçekten harika bir yer. Artık yurt dışı seyahatlerim de mutlaka uğramam gereken bir mekan daha var!

Mükemmel

Yiyecekler gayet güzeldi hizmet ve atmosfere bayıldım..

Their chicken karaage and Thai grilled chicken are such stellar dishes. We did catering of those two in their large platters and what a good deal. The folks who work there are so nice too. The interior is kind of greasy smelling though, which makes it a little uncomfortable for me going in there.

On numara mekan

I'm in need of a good Thai restaurant in Kent near my house, and this place popped up on my search. Read a lot of good reviews, so I have to give it a try. And oh boy, am I glad to have found this hidden gem. Placed my order on my way home from work, got there about 20 minutes later and the food was being packed. I ordered that famous chicken karaage, grilled chicken, pad see ewe, and chicken pad thai. All were delicious, my only thing was that I wish the pad thai has a bit more sauce to it. The chicken karaage was moist and crispy, cooked to perfection. They use boneless skinless chicken thighs which was different, but in a good way. I will def be back to try out more stuff on the menu, that's for sure since this place is so close to my house.

Some of the best customer service you’ll find and incredible food. Thank you!

I've been eating here for " decades " , started as I remember in the 90's but maybe longer... It was after this family opened up !!!
You can go pick up or dine in, you will NEVER be disappointed !!!! I know at least 50 people/friends that love it too !

Food is always so good I've ordered at least 10 times from here, I always order ahead because it's very busy, the boys at the check out are very very kind and professional. Large portions too.

Best fry chicken in Seattle

Muy buen lugar para pasar en familia ❤️‍🩹
