  Pad see ew with tofu
  Kee Mao noodles with tofu
  Fried rice with tofu
  Summer roll with tofu
  Thai iced tea - good but more than 3/4ths is ice. Boo!
  
  They cook fast! Two thumbs up for that! I like that I can see them cooking your food. Comforting you know?
  
  Decor is reminiscent of a tropical hut. There are not many booths to dine in but it's more of a take out establishment anyway, so be prepared for booths not ready if they are backed up with orders.

  The food is great but pricey. Expect 9.99 a plate and no lunch specials. It's not bad when you want good Thai in Olympia but it adds up when you get a drink and side. A main dish plus a cup of soup and a bubble tea ran 23/24 bucks.
  
  Taking 2 stars for it is waaaay too hot inside. Unbearable, it's 80 degrees outside with a little breeze and zero air conditioning or a fan of any sort inside. I feel bad for the cooks. We ate our meal outside as it's cooler.

  Definitely not impressed. When we got here I noticed a lot of full plates on empty tables. I was hoping that wasn't an impression of the quality of food here but sadly it is. We ordered the crab wontons, there was barely any filling and it had almost a mayonnaise taste to it. The sauce was ok. We had the chicken pad Thai and orange chicken. The orange chicken Was so fried it was tough and super oily. The flavor of the sauce was good. The pad Thai chicken and egg were blackened and the overall dish was just not good. Won't be coming back here. The food in the pictures is what's left after 2 people attempted to eat lunch. The bubble teas were good. Not our cup of tea.

  Our kids introduced us to Pad Thai Express and it's one of our favorite places now.  My advice is to call ahead and pick up.  They are consistently busy so it saves time.  Our faves are Peanut Noodles, Cashew Nut, Pad Thai and Showering Rama.

  4.5 stars. Was craving pad Thai and found this place on a quick google search, and I'm glad I did! The pictures didn't look appetizing, and I almost passed on eating here, but I decided to give it a try, since I've eaten at most of the places in town that offer pad Thai. The food was amazing! So tasty and hit the spot! The perfect pad Thai flavor, no weird random ingredients some places throw in, a classic. The tofu was decent, but I've had better.
