This place is the gold standard for Thai restaurants. Every dish I've tried has been fantastically delicious. The first was pad see ew. The noodles were perfectly marinated and seasoned, the veggies were fresh and thoroughly cooked, as was the chicken which was also fresh, not at all fatty, and flavorful. I tried the basil fried rice next which was also perfectly seasoned, very flavorful, with fresh and tasty veggies. The chicken satay was juicy and the peanut sauce had just the right balance between oily and creamy. Tonight I tried the yellow curry. The spices and sauce had the perfect balance. The potatoes were cooked to perfection. They melted in my mouth which reminded me of my dad's home cooking. Finally, the crispy rolls are perfectly crispy and I appreciate the fresh ingredients. Especially the shredded carrots. I'd eat here everyday and never get tired of it. The interior is cozy, welcoming, and the server is very kind and pleasant.

Warm and inviting atmosphere and great authentic food! Quick service and good portions. Will come again.

Our home is 2 minutes away from this Thai restaurant and the competition for food in this area is incredible. You would think that we would get tired of “the place down the street” but they continue to serve the most DELICIOUS food. It’s worth the drive if you’re further than two minutes! Another 5⭐️ dinner tonight. Thank you!

I had the golden bowl off of the takeout menu. Inside of restaurant is charming, cozy, and warm.Unfortunately the item was excessively oily, The vegetables were limp and tired, the noodles were pasty and gooey, also tired. Ninety percent of my assorted vegetables were actually onions. For Thai food I recommend checking out our restaurants.

Oh my God, this place has the flavors! Their pad Thai is delicious of course, but the purple rice and Thai basil dishes are unreal. Try their Thai iced tea too, it's superb and very unique. You won't be able to put it down. Very chill music and extremely friendly staff. We will be back for sure and will spread the word!

Very pleasant and relaxing atmosphere from the moment we stepped in 😄. The waitress was really kind and thoughtful, allowing us to order a Pad See Ew dish without egg so that I could eat even with my allergy!
The food came swiftly and in generous portions! The vegetables were well cooked crisp-tender, and looked fresh; the meat and noodles were soft and well-flavored 😋. The only concern was the tofu may have been stale, but it still tasted delicious!
Extremely enjoyable experience overall; highly recommend! ❤️

It was very stuffy/hot inside, the food took 25 minutes for takeout when only one table was full in the restaurant, and the food was mediocre. I’d recommend another Thai restaurant nearby.

This review is being revised.
11 months ago I left a 1 star review because the food was just bad. Thai Golden Bowl had gone from being fabulous in its early years to just plain bad when we ordered from them in January 2024.
Well, we were craving Thai food tonight so we tried them again. It was incredibly delicious! The crispy chicken was perfectly cooked and the 4* spice level was great. My wife’s Golden Noodles with tofu was also excellent as was the peanut sauce.
Compliments to the chef!
Thai Golden Bowl is Golden once again!

I love all their food, very good!! You can also order and pay online which helps when they get busy with phone orders.

Friendly staff, amazing food, and Hank Hill picture at the register is too funny. Golden noodle and Massaman are both favorites from me!

Service was great, and the restaurant was warm and cozy. Unfortunately, the food was the worst Thai food I’ve ever had. The crispy rolls were pretty good, but they were barely warm with slightly cold centers, not hot. The sweet and sour sauce had a weird taste and horrible after taste, but the chicken was decent. The beef phad Thai had a strong, undesirable flavor, and the beef was absolutely horrible, the texture was rubbery making me think it was like fake beef (if there is such a thing). I will not return, nor would I recommend.

My go to neighborhood Thai restaurant!

First time being into Thai Golden Bowl and it was amazing! The food was perfect and staff were welcoming and kind. We got chicken pad Thai and it was delicious, we will be back again soon!

I made a mistake. I ordered from this restaurant thinking it was the one up the street from me, when in fact it was 30 miles away. Paid online with credit card. When I realized my mistake, I called, explained and apologized. They offered no refund at all, so I paid the tax and tip in addition to the food. A $50 lunch that I can’t pick up. While I own up to my mistake, I do find their customer service lacking. Like REALLY lacking.

This is our local Thai restaurant, I always order the pad see ew with beef, my favorite.

Ordered the Thai fried rice with chicken.Ordered online and it was ready for pickup in 5 minutes.
It was very tasty. My issue was, I ordered it medium spicy, but it wasn't spicy at all.
Kind of disappointing as I had a cold and wanted something kind of spicy.

Cozy and clean spot with friendly staff! I ordered Garlic Delight with tofu and crispy rolls. The tofu is done well, white rice is perfect, rolls are crispy, can't wait to try more food from here. Definately a new go to spot for me!

Truly an excellent array of Thai food hitting almost every button and flavor. This is a neighborhood restaurant on the hill and most of the orders tend to be phoned in to pick up for people to eat at home here on the hill. They have been here quite a while and they are doing well. Currently, online orders, because of the high volume, 10 to involve a bit more of a weight. It is definitely worth it

The crispy chicken was so good! Lots of parking, nice staff, chill vibes.

Delicious, fresh and flavorful, great customer service family owned made with love ❤️

Have eaten here several times over the years and food has always been adequate. Unfortunately, we ordered take out tonight the soup was too sweet, the chicken satay was dry, and the pot stickers were chewy and tasteless.

It was very stuffy/hot inside, the food took 25 minutes for takeout when only one table was full in the restaurant, and the food was mediocre. I’d recommend another Thai restaurant nearby.

one of my favorite place

Food has always been consistently delicious. Best thai place in the area!

Place is great. All the locals come here. It's almost a neighborhood joint. Don't pass on it.

The staff are so friendly and the food is great.

Good and service are great. Humble ambience but doesn't affect the experience.

Very good 👍 🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆

The nicest people with a 10/10 food, 100% would recommend eating here

Great Thai food, Friendly staff. Orders for takeout are always ready much sooner than expected.

Always quick for a pickup order and the food is delicious

Jane is AWESOME !!

Just got a couple of orders from them with beef. The beef was mostly fat and I was not able to even eat the meat. I would rather pay a bit more and get something that is edible. The meat was literally disgusting.

updated: the sweetness is still the issue--tried again last week. original: while the flavors are good, our recent meal was WAY too sweet -- so much sugar that even my kids didn't like it. except the soup, which was rather limey--maybe an off night, but we'll likely stay away for a while

Solid, prompt service. Excellent food.

Had a nice plate of pud woon sen. They have me all 4 stars which is nice, sometimes places skimp on the hot pepper. Anyway it was a pleasant surprise to find this little pearl in a strip mall. Kind and attentive staff and abundant parking round out the experience. Very clean. Beer selection isn't stellar but Singha is available. Hope some day they have some Deschutes Mirror pond or equivalent.

Super cheap on rice. I have eaten here for years but just recently they stopped filling up the small rice box on to go orders. They instead give one small scoop. So the ratio of rice to curry is way off.

This is my family's favorite restaurant. We don't eat out much, but this is our go to for takeout. The staff is super friendly and the food is great! We try something different each time and haven't been disappointed. But definitely try the crispy chicken...

Food and service is always excellent.

For years this place has been one my favorite, great food. Some of my personal favorites are the red curry, pad woonsen and Thai basil fried rice.

10/10!

Great food and friendly staff 👌

I've gotten two dishes here and I really wanted to like it since the service was so good, but unfortunately I just didn't like it. The fried tofu in the phad kee mao tasted stale, and the eggplant stir fry was bland and too oily.

First time something has been so good I had to leave a review. Best crispy basil pork belly I have ever had in my entire life. If anyone knows anything close to it closer to Marysville. Please tell me lmao.

I really enjoy the pad thai here. Washed down with a Tsingtao:)

I wish I could message them directly, however, I just go the vegetable delight with chicken. Chicken and sauce was good. Veggies were overcooked and mushy and the rice was hard. This is my favorite Thai meal so I know how good this should taste.

I have gone to this restaurant for almost six years. I have never been disappointed with the food or the service. It is an outstanding restaurant. Clean, fait prices, good portions, amazing quality. Please go.

The food was ok - we have other places we like more. But this is close and convenient. They followed special instructions on my online order to omit an ingredient, everything was ready when I arrived, and service was quick and very friendly.

Our go to Thai food. Hot is actually spicy! Going here for years, always solid.

The worst thai food I've had in years. I can't believe this place is in business. Noodles were mushy, curry was watery with no flavor. Take your business elsewhere.

Fantastic Thai food and a hidden gem of a place. Flavors are authentic and they get the spice levels just right. All dishes had loads of veggies and prices are fair. Friendly staff.

Great food! No Joke!! I wasn't expecting much the first time my roommate at the time ordered from here years ago because it's in a QFC adjacent space next to a gym and a Bartels drugs. At the top of Juanita Drive in Kenmore is not the place that you would expect to find exquisite Thai cuisine. But low and behold and yo my great surprise the food was excellent and I've been to Thailand multiple. Title and bowl is only a couple blocks from my house great find local Thai food all the time two thumbs up.

The chicken pad thai is incredible highly recommended this place

The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. My family's favorite dishes are Pad see Ew, garden ginger and a thai special fried rice with shrimp.

Something has recently changed here - new management? Different kitchen staff? My last order was VERY disappointing. The Crispy Chicken was so overcooked (deep-fried) that most of the dish was inedible. The Phad Thai was gooey and tasteless.

This is the second time in past weeks that an order from Thai Golden Bowl was poorly executed. It's frustrating to get a take out meal back home and find the order is messed up - like finding a dish laced with green peppers after having requested "no green peppers", a noodle dish severely overcooked, or winding up with half of someone else's order.

It's too bad. I've ordered many meals here - it's conveniently located and reasonably priced. Maybe they will correct their shortcomings, but it will be a long time before I return there to find out.

Best thai food on Finn Hill. Hands down.

Always love Thai Golden Bowl. Very friendly. Reasonably priced. Food is excellent.

I have lived near Thai GoldenBowl for a while and I haven't taken full advantage of this amazing place. Got Phad Thai and Broccoli Delight and the sauce for the Broccoli Delight was amazing.

Best asian food I’ve ever eat! A+

Best Thai food I’ve had in a while, I ordered:
Pad Thai, Pad Kee Mao, Yellow Curry, Crispy Chicken, Thai Iced Tea, and got extra Peanut Sauce! Loved everything!!! The wait was a little long but after we had it we were so happy 💖💖

Great food, great prices, and very quick when it came to ordering my take out. Outstanding customer service from Felicity. She took my order and everything came out how I expected. Most definitely coming back.

Very good food and great service.

The front desk girls are very rude. They have repeatedly delivered wrong food for us and when we ask they don’t even apologize and say come back later and we will fix it. We won’t order here anymore.

Delicious Coconut soup

Delicious! Great food and thai iced tea

Amazing food.

The best Thai food in the Finn hill neighborhood. Every dish we tried is great. They use fresh produce and the meet is always tender and cooked right.

Used to be good but is inconsistent and not nearly as good as before.

Great Thai food and excellent customer service, you won't be disappointed. 😋

Every order I placed is wrong. I think they changed owners and the new owners just don't care because all the new people moving into the area don't know that this place used to be great. Now it's just so-so Thai food. Check your order, it most likely is wrong. Expect a lot of oil on used in the dishes now as well... Really becoming inconsistent!

Absolutely delicious. Pork belly, pad thai, swimming rama, and pineapple fried rice were my favorites.

Delicious!

Delicious food. Service was great. Had to wait a bit for our takeout order, but it was most certainly worth it. Will be coming back again, as usual.

Very tasty curries and friendly and patient staff.

Yummy pad se ew!!!! Hilarious server.

Excellent service, great food. Neighborhood place for take out or dine in for Thai. Not much else to say, it's just pretty good

Great, friendly service! Efficient. They tell you how long a wait for food will be and it's pretty accurate. Decent prices. Comfortable atmosphere. Clean unless swamped! Good is good. So far no mess ups on orders.

MWe went for lunch after visiting said t Edwards park. I got the lunch pad thai and a thai iced tea. My daughter just got rice. We got our food quick and it was ok. Not bad but not very impressive either. We will visit again when we go back to the park since it is so convenient.

Very friendly and helpful staff here. A lot of the menu items can be altered to be gluten free if you ask before ordering. The basil fried rice is always amazing! The Pad Thai is very basic. We've been here a few times and the food is always pretty consistent.

Their dishes are loaded with sugar. I keep trying different things.They have no savory dish in their menu. So disappointing that they put so much of unhealthy sugar in every dish. It makes a perfect dish taste awful. Service and everything else is good. It is very convenient as it is close to my house.

Thai Golden Bowl is located in the middle of a strip center of of Juanita Drive in Kirkland. Parking is ample and the restaurant its self is decorated typical for this type of restaurant. Somewhat clean but the tables, chairs and menus could use a thorough cleaning.

The menu has a good selection of dishes to choose from and you can select the level of spicy to suit your personal taste.

I just feel this restaurant could be a bit better with dish flavors. The different dishes seem a bit muddled. You can try several different dishes yet all have a relatively same flavor. I was hoping for of a fresh, multi-layered flavoring with several of my choices but the offerings have more of a singular depth to them compared to other Thai restaurants.

I will say one brite spot was the Pad Thai was good and flavorful but I would not say it is head and shoulder above many other Thai restaurants.

Great local Thai food!

Favorite Thai restaurant! Great food and service.

Excellent food, good service almost every time I go there. Amazing for take-out.

Swimming Rama

Best Thai food in Kenmore! Never been let down.

Some of my favorite food in town. Pineapple fried rice is delicious. They have veggie option on most dishes and actually add in a bunch unlike most Thai spots that just remove the meat.

I was pleased with the speedy service of my takeout green curry. But when I opened it and began to eat, the chicken was chewy like rubber, the curry sauce flavorless and thin like water, and without knowing any better I'd guess they used minute rice. The only enjoyable part was the zucchini, that tasted pretty fresh.

Excellent menu!

Very tasty! Fast and good service

Food was delicious, service awesome. Will definitely be back!

It was ok

Love the food, consistant good quality always pleasant staff.small quiet place very peaceful

Food tastes great if you order takeout make sure they give you what you ordered

The food here is always great, but they need more help. Even when few tables are occupied, service is still very slow and inattentive. There is a steady stream of take out that keeps them fully occupied.

Waited at the table for over 10 minutes just to get a menu or water anything. Nothing.

Fantastic food! We have gotten takeout multiple times and they have never served a bad meal👍

Awesome taste for first-time Thai experience

The curry I received was more like a thin broth than an actual curry.

Food is pretty good, but wait times are long. They will say 15-20 mins but they really mean an hour.

One of my favorite for flavor and quality. But man they are always super busy and consequently slow service. I must chose the wrong time to go there. Always worth it for great food though. Very nice staff. When they are slammed, I realize they don't always answer the phone. Literally, I see them too busy for the resources they have.

Best Phad Thai in the area IMO

I've been here about 5 times so far and I can't get enough. Every time I have come in, the service has been friendly and quick. The food is fresh, the flavor is great (beware of getting over 3 stars if you don't like spicy), and the portions are quite large so you'll have some leftovers. I recommend this place to anyone who likes Thai food.

Love this place. Super tasty, I just wished they DoorDashed. If you're looking for affordable, yummy, dine in or take out Thai - this is the place.

Great little Thai food shop.

Oops, rated as 1 star but don't mean it. Yummy

מקום קטן , אוכל טעים ונחמד מאוד.

I have tried many thai places and this is my favorite by far. the food is incredible- they have the best pineapple fried rice and a great peanut sauce. Also, the people who work here are extremely nice and hard-working. you should definitely try this place!

My absolutely fave Thai restaurant. Sometimes understaffed for people attending, but service is usually good.

It was quiet and the food was good

I'm getting more and more offended when I visit highly rated Thai restaurants on Google maps and then I get the pad Thai that tastes like ketchup. I have never encountered a more ketchup-y Pad Thai in my life, the moment it arrived at my table I realized my mistake as I could smell it from my seat. I tried a bite just to give it a fair chance and immediately pushed the plate away and refused more.

While I plan to pay for the meal and tip regularly, I'm more offended at my fellow Google map users for giving this place a 4.4. I have used the time I would have been eating my Thai food to write this review.

Also, the green curry was watery.

I'm a big fan of their fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce.

Quick service, great food, reasonable prices.

My favourite Thai restaurant. Their crispy chicken with basil is amazing!

I am a long time foodie and a big thai lover. This place is amazing. I get the Tom Yum and I am very satisfied. Flavor is strong and if anything I would recommend going conservative on the stars of spice ( coming from someone who normally gets 4 stars, I I like a 2 star from here). One of my favorite thai places, great find off the beaten path.

Food is good, nothing extraordinary however in comparison to other Thai restaurant in the local area. Prices and portions are reasonable for lunch hours but seem a little overpriced for dinner. Quality of food is mediocre but the flavor is good. Service is ok, some days the service is better than others and I believe it depends on who is working. Take out is prompt and they have always gotten it right.

First Thai place I ever truly enjoyed the food! The Thai Basil, especially. A word of caution: some days "3 star" hot is hotter than other days.
Always friendly service, and great food, even when they're super-busy, which is often.

Serving sizes are perfect, pad Thai is so yummy!
Spice ratings are great too! A 1 is actually a 1 and a 4 is really hot too! But not too much

Some of the best curry in the area so they got that going for them. Prices are a bit high but made even more evident by their below average portions. Still great food, just not the best bargin in town.

Great fried rice, pretty good pad Thai.

Low service. A little bit salty.

Love it. Anything with peanut sauce and tom kah is great. Crispy chicken is an option for some of the menu items and worth trying at least once. Great service and friendly staff. Takeout is also an option and sometimes necessary on busier evenings.

I couldn't eat it at all, so I ordered another dish, same problem, both were too sweer, why does a dish with garlic sauce has to taste like dissert is beyond me, same question for oyster sauce, won't eat there again.

Great food, great service. Didn't have to wait long at all.

Food was decent, but not the best in the area.

Great food and friendly service. What more can you ask for?

Best Thai food in the area, hands-down. I highly recommend the menu item, the "golden bowl" along with all of the curry dishes. Service can be slow at lunch because the staff is not very large. Plan on waiting if there is a large crowd or if you are in a large group.

エビカレーおいしい🍛

Good food! Chicken house noodle was really delicious, fried tofu, Golden noodle (pork) were also really good. Service was a bit slow but they were nice.

This is one of the best restaurants that I've been to. I've been there almost five times already since the beginning of March... I keep wanting to go back. The people who work there everyday are always very nice, and they are very accommodating (especially for vegetarians/vegans). If you are in the area, I would definitely try it.

Above average Thai food. Decent service.

The food is OK. However, the staff should not be in the hospitality and service industry. My overall impression is the staff does not care.

I've been here several times (both dine in and takeout) and never had a bad experience. The food is high-average quality in my opinion, and I've liked all the dishes I tried. The pepper/spice is a above average, so consider getting a lower "star" level than you would other places. In addition, price seems above average for the type of food, but since I keep going back I suppose it is worth it ☺.

Great food and service.
