Super yummy

Diner Review №2

The Pad See Ew here is fire. Big portion, tastes wonderful, decent price. The people running this place are very friendly. I highly recommend for great Thai takeout.

Diner Review №3

Great food. But they close early. Don’t answer the phone and they are closed on weekends. Would be 5 stars if they cared about money and were actually open when people want food.

This is THE spot. Wow. Great food, wonderful service, AMAZING prices, FRESH food, so good I was nearly in tears. 10/10 perfect for a quick bite.

Diner Review №12

Service was great as usual but food wasn’t. Hoping it was just a fluke. Will give it another try.

Diner Review №13

Worst Thai food i have ever eaten. I ordered my 'test' dish for every thai restaurant...pad thai....it arrived with what seemed like either General Tso's or sweet/sour sauce. It was thick, gooey and delivered to the table luke warm. Barely edible.

Diner Review №14

I miss this place since I moved 2.5 years ago. I will go here in January for food.

Diner Review №15

Good service and fast. On the tofu served with our meals they were cold but the noodles
Were hot. Would go back.

Diner Review №17

This place has the best Thai food in oak harbor. Compared to the other Thai places here, 123 Thai has better food, for cheaper, with larger portions. Yeah the atmosphere isn't real fancy, but the food is absolutely outstanding. Better than the other Thai places. When I go out to eat, I'm going for the food not what the tables look like.

Diner Review №18

I had a fantastic experience at this Thai restaurant today! The customer service was excellent, and the food was both delicious and plentiful. My parents and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Highly recommended!

Diner Review №19

Absolutely delicious food with good portion sizes. We gobbled up the spring rolls before I thought to take a photo but they were amazing. The pho was seasoned perfectly and made with whatever spice level you request. The pineapple rice was absolutely delicious! We are eating the leftovers for dinner just after eating it for lunch. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №20

We ordered chicken pad thai and Panang curry and absolutely loved it. Staff was friendly and our food came out very quick. We changed around our itinerary just so we could come back for more!

Diner Review №21

Some of the best Thai food we have had, better than anything in Seattle. Highly recommend the pad kee mao, level 3 was spicy but bearable. Kid friendly options and gluten free options.

Diner Review №22

Great food!
Very recommended place, the kids found great dishes, and we enjoyed our meal.

Diner Review №23

Diner Review №24

Same, the owner is absolutely friendly. The food here is so fresh and made to order. They will make your dish the way you want it if you have allergies. Same worked so hard during the pandemic to keep his restaurant clean and safe for customers. Again, the food is so fresh and tastes wonderful. You'll always have a loyal customer.

Diner Review №25

The owners and workers are very polite and willing to work with you for your order to make it just as you like it. The portions are HUGE.

Diner Review №26

They stayed open late for us even though they were closed and it was delicious

Diner Review №27

Great food I was impressed by the flavor of the food. Will be coming whenever I come to visit.

Diner Review №28

Diner Review №29

The Phad Thai was burnt. You could smell and taste it. I will post this, but I know it will be deleted.

Diner Review №30

I haven't been to this restaurant since 2017, and I still think about it when reminiscing about when I was stationed here. I used to eat lunch here so often that I won a sweepstakes for a TV when they did a giveaway! I hope you are doing well, Sam!

Diner Review №31

Quick and simple thai

Diner Review №32

Diner Review №33

Diner Review №34

We always get the Pad Thai - number 3 spicy and it’s awesome

Diner Review №35

Thanks for the burnt pad thai on my take out order when I wouldn't know it until I got home. Never again. That is completely unacceptable for any chef to package up as an order.

Diner Review №36

Like the food, but have a problem with the hours. I get off work at 5, and so do they. I just think that the hours of opening is not good for people who work, and do not want to cook dinner when they get home.

Diner Review №37

Diner Review №38

bad food, unsanitary conditions, tips do not go to employees and they always seem on edge. Very poor management in my opinion.

Diner Review №39

Diner Review №40

The chicken and beef glass noodle is epic...

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

My kids love this place

Diner Review №43

I love 123 Thai! The owner was amazingly responsive when COVID hit and has always been great at working with me on dietary needs. Not to mentions the food is incredible! They are my go-to Thai restaurant in Oak Harbor.

Diner Review №44

Best phad thai... Ever... Period. I will never phad thai anywhere else!!!!!!!!!

Diner Review №45

Service quality was good, food was prepared on time, and workers were on their toes.

I ordered the panang curry with some sticky rice.
**Not sure if they just messed up my order and accidentally served me something else because this doesnt really even taste like traditional panang.
The panang curry was too watery, which probably was the reason behind the flavour being somewhat bland. I ordered it at a level 3 spice, but for normal thai restaurants I would say they had it at level 1 spice.
Sticky rice was not very sticky.

Diner Review №46

Gets a fix but not the best flavors. I found it lacking all around.

Diner Review №47

We’ve been enjoying 123 Thai for years
Great customer service and great food! Always consistent when we order

Diner Review №48

Ive been coming to 123 Thai for over 10 years... The quality has gone down so much. Ordered my regular order and it was so disipointing compared to what I'm use to from there. It was smaller portions and very skimpy on everything including the green onions? The rice served with it was overcooked as well... I'm so disipointed and to top it off I ordered my food for pick up at 11:25 didnt recieve it till 11:40..

Diner Review №49

Was attracted to this place because they advertised vegetarian/vegan friendly. You order outside through a baby monitor. Was quoted 10 - 15 minutes and they would bring it curbside. After waiting 30 mins we called and the food had been sitting there for a while. Only offered an apology. The food was ok, nothing special. The jungle curry tasted fine but was the consistency of soup and spilled all over the inside of the bag.

Diner Review №50

Great food and service! The owner is wonderful and never seems to forget a face!

Diner Review №51

If you like spicy thai food you will be severely dissapointed. Got a 4 and its a big ol 0 on the spice meter. Second time this has happened to my family and it may not be an oversight but just a lack of spice at this restaurant. If you don't like spice the food is tasty, but if you do like spicy pad thai search elsewhere.

Diner Review №52

Best Thai food on the island. Hands down—so good. The Thai Basil Noodle, Pad Kee Mao, Pad See Ew— all fantastic. It’s better than the place I used to live near in Seattle (also a 123-Thai.) I love that they throw in steamed rice on the side, free of charge too. They’ve figured out the curbside delivery ordeal out for sure. They use fresh ingredients. Will definitely be back many times more.

Diner Review №53

The food was average for me. But after sitting down and starting to eat, my family and I were asked to leave because they were going to close. They could have closed the front doors and wait for us to finish eating. But no, they insisted us to leave.

Diner Review №54

Diner Review №55

Best thai food in town!!

Diner Review №56

This restaurant has a wide selection of dishes.

Diner Review №57

Diner Review №58

They boast about free rice but charge a lot for food to make up for the "free" rice. I've never given a 1 star review, ever. Nor do I rate places often, but this place isn't good at all and anyone reading this should go somewhere else instead.

Diner Review №59

Diner Review №60

Good small town Thai restaurant, do a fine job of the classic curries, satay and pad Thai.

Diner Review №61

Not too bad...

Diner Review №62

Diner Review №63

If you like tasteless food at regular food prices this is your place. Only upside is that its fast. But if you actually enjoy thai food. Just go somewhere else

Diner Review №64

Sucked

Diner Review №65

Diner Review №66

Great Thai food. Love the emperors cashew chicken and the rice is sooo good! Clean place with great service

Diner Review №67

I love this place 😍❤️ I have never had beef so tender!!! They have such great food and a variety too .... I want to try some of their more exotic dishes ...I so love the portions and being able to have the option to have more rice (that they don't charge for) ....best place to eat and great atmosphere!!

Diner Review №68

Been going here for years, have always enjoyed it.

Diner Review №69

Food was delicious! Some of the best customer service I've had. My fiance and I brought our 9 month old in and they made sure she had her own plate and gave us more than enough rice! Very accommodating at the end too, making sure we had rice to go and a bag to hold all our leftovers. I had the wonton noodle soup and crab ragoon, definatly going again!

The food here is fresh and delicious. The service was prompt and the employees were kind and helpful. The portion size is on the small size, especially for the cost but otherwise everything about this place is excellent.

Bomb Thai food. The spice level matrix makes sense. Theyre also pretty quick about getting the food to you.

Diner Review №85

Diner Review №86

Took the family here for dinner tonight and it was soo good ! The flavors were awesome ! Everyone was very polite and we were asked if we enjoyed our meal and we were offered more rice . Decent prices for what you get . My only complaint would be the vegetables could have been cooked a bit longer they were a bit hard but not enough to detour me from coming back maybe I could just ask to cook them a bit longer I dont know. over all I would recommend you try them .

Diner Review №87

New tables! So pretty.

A nice little Thai spot!
Very traditionally made pad thai, rice and meat dishes. We also ordered a bbq pork dish, which was good but a little too tangy.

This place will load you up with rice, which isn’t bad if you’re into a large yield. It’s all very tasty.

Don’t order too much or leftovers galore. You’ll definitely get the bang for your buck and some quality food.

Staff was friendly.

Diner Review №103

I drive from Anacortes to get the food here! It is such great quality. Freaking delicious.

Diner Review №104

Always a great meal for us. Whether its 2 or 13 of us we are welcomed there.

Diner Review №105

Every kind of Thai food you could imagine, all prepared with the best fresh ingredients. There are tables for indoor dining, very basic restaurant setting.

Diner Review №106

Great selections and tasty food! Thanks!!

Diner Review №135

Diner Review №136

I like there food

Diner Review №137

I love pad Thai. I ordered pad Thai. There was not one peanut in it..which is what the word pad means. Turns out there was not one peanut in the whole place. Allergies he said. He couldn't even give me any to go. No peanuts. Essentially Thai spaghetti..rice noodles w red sauce. That's it. No spice either. Just sweet. Like a cup of sugar sweet. This is the worst Thai food I have ever had. My biggest regret..I have to give one full star.

Diner Review №157

Best yellow curry I’ve had in a long time! Their pad Thai is also quite good. It’s less sweet and more savory, very fast service and always polite staff. We love this place!

Diner Review №158

Always a nice place for a quick lunch!

Diner Review №159

Food is delicious 😊 big portions. Fast & good customer service.

Diner Review №160

I LOVE THE FRIED ICE CREAM YOU GUYS NEED TO MAKE MORE!!!!!! And the crab Rangoons are the best in the world. You guys have a really good service and I will tell people about you because you guys are amazing. ( I’m Mariannes brother and I’m glad she works for you because you guys are great)

Diner Review №161

There have been so many improvements to the restaurant that have made my experience much more pleasant. I have been a regular customer for years at 123 Thai and the new flooring and remodeled bathroom have made the atmosphere so much cleaner and more welcoming! You can really tell they care about their customers opinions, they've put in so much time and effort and money into making the restaurant more presentable!

Diner Review №162

Diner Review №163

This low-key restaurant is friendly and has a large menu of Thai/Asian dishes. Everything I've tried there has been good. They usually include a free salad. A good choice for take-out.

Diner Review №164

Doesn't look like much but the food is better than that of many fancy restaurants. Always fresh

Diner Review №165

Diner Review №166

They have never charged for rice

Diner Review №167

So many choices with a picture of each and every item on the menu. Each item is plenty in quantity and you will for sure be taking extra home. Not sure which workers kids they are but there's a handful of them playing in the restaurant well their parent works behind the counter. I had the one ton noodle soup and was given the most shabbiest metal spoon to use. When I asked if this shabby teaspoon was from me to use for the big bowl of soup the girl looked at me like I was crazy and said these are the only spoons we have. I like the variety and especially like seeing the picture before I order the food. This is a very busy place for takeout.

Diner Review №168

Good yellow chicken curry, excellent service (both girls at the counter are super nice) and very reasonable price per portion!

Diner Review №169

The food and price are great but the health code is not where it should be. Kids in the kitchen and a covered kid area in the dining area. Don't get me started about the "bathrooms"

Diner Review №170

Diner Review №171

Diner Review №172

When they actually get your order right, it's delicious. Just make sure you check your order before you leave! Actually look inside the box, maybe spoon through it if you have to. ESPECIALLY if you have an allergy. Can't tell you how many times I got all the way home and discovered egg or beef in my dish instead of just my requested rice, vegetables, and tofu. After verifying multiple times that it was indeed what I wanted in the box, even looking in the box to make sure, I would STILL find bits of stuff I definitely didnt want in there (eggs, meat). Personally, after it happened so many times, wasting my own time and gas (driving there twice to replace the meal multiple times), I will never eat there again. Just too many disappointments and just not delicious enough for those chances.

PS: wth would they think I ordered tofu with extra beef?? Clearly they need glasses. It even said extra tofu on the darn receipt. Jeeze. Over three times of that. Vegans/vegetarian/people with allergies beware.

Diner Review №173

Great food, decent prices and super friendly staff. Set up, arrangement, and wall art are different, but fun.

Diner Review №174

I ordered sticky rice. Taste nasty and rice looked old.

Diner Review №175

Diner Review №176

Diner Review №177

Fair amount on the plate, even tasty

Diner Review №178

Good Thai food with large portions. Decor is odd but as long as you go for food and not ambiance you should like it. They do a lot of take out too.

Diner Review №179

Sooo good! Love the shrimp pad Thai.

Diner Review №180

Diner Review №181

Diner Review №182

Diner Review №183

I ordered pad thai that was okay... Ordered above spice scale and was still let down with heat level. Wife ordered pineapple fried rice and couldn't eat it. I asked why and she said it tasted like eating cardboard flavored food. She wasn't wrong.

Diner Review №184

Diner Review №185

While marketed as a Thai restaurant, the food is more a pan Asian melange of bland Americanized noodles and soy sauce dishes. The Gluten-free options are not truly gluten-free as they contain soy sauce or have been cooked in the same pots as foods that contain it. The restaurant itself is a weird sort of hole-in-the-wall you'd expect to get good take out from, but is lacking. I wouldn't recommend eating in.

Diner Review №186

Diner Review №187

Its a pretty small shop but that does not mean anything about the food. Its good and authentic. Come here often!

Love it been here countless times. Lemongrass and Love Basil tonight.

Diner Review №195

Popular and busy eatery. Good food, but call ahead.

Diner Review №196

Best Thai food on Whidbey Island. Order carryout, don't dine in. You will thank me.

Diner Review №197

Diner Review №198

Love this food. However, I need to work my way through the whole menu - I seem to stick to 2-3 of my favorite

Diner Review №199

Food Poisoning, won't return, ruined 2 days of my vacation. Been there 6 previous times and it was alright, but why take the chance: go someplace else.

Diner Review №200

More expensive than its worth. They also raised the prices of everything, and it's the biggest complaint everyone has.
