Thai Valley

Orange chicken… terrible. Covered very lightly with orange sauce. Most of it was dry battered dark chicken. Don’t order it. The rest of there food is decent. Nothing to brag about though. Happy Thai around the corner is way better.

I’ve been going here once or twice a week for what feels like close to a year. I’ve had their fried rice, prob all their curries, and pad thai. Usually when I find something that I like, I tend to stick with it.
Everything is great, but sometimes (I think mostly dependent on time of day) there is some acceptable fluctuation in quality (thickness of curry, how much the pad thai sticks/​clumps to each other, etc). Granted, I order out nearly every time though and the time that I recall eating inside, it was all perfect. Literally.
My favorites are:
Lunch Set #2. It comes with chicken red curry, white rice, pad thai, and 2 geaw Tods (some sweet moderately crunchy things with a filling inside). SO GOOD. And if you order it early enough (around 3pm or earlier), you’ll get a little tiny thing of soup… man, I’m bad at this. lol. If you order this later than the lunch time, I think it’ll cost an additional $ 1.00 from menu price.
Green curry and red curry. I prefer my curry to be thicker, but it tends to come out a little on the thin side. It still tastes great though.
I honestly haven’t gotten the fried rice in a long time (I eat enough rice at home), but it was really good and fresh. It didn’t taste like it had any MSG in it (MSG tends to give me a headache).
The inside has many Boeing-​themed ornaments and is otherwise very inviting.

Great place to eat! Food is delish! Basil fried rice! The chowmain is super yummy! My kids order the Orange Chicken… super fresh and crunching! Price is pretty good too! I can feed my family of 5 and only spend $ 55! Not bad!

Honestly the best thai food I have ever had, and my family eat thai food ALL THE TIME. My husband and mother LOVE this restaurant and its food, try the avocado curry and spring rolls. A-​mazing.

its located in a strip mall, which is pretty congested. the place itself has seats available, but parking can be challenging.
service is quick, food comes in big portions and is pretty dang inexpensive. the food is okay and the menu has lots of choices. this place won’t knock your socks off, but it can be a solid, quick stop when you need to get something going in a hurry.

Been going here for about 4 – 5 years now. Same friendly staff! Same great food! I have Tried all their competitors in there area for just for comparison and still im coming back to thai valley in the end. Hasn’t let me down Yet. :)

Great Thai food. Most authentic for the everett area. Having been to Thailand recently, this is some of the best flavor and price. We love the staff too, they are so sweet.
They are super busy at the lunch hour, and sometimes there’s a wait for a table. But it’s well worth it. They are quick, and very accommodating.

I saw a coworker with some food from Thai Valley, I tried it and it was delicious. When I got out of work, I ordered Pad Woon Sen for take out. I picked it up, and the woman at the counter was very nice, got my order and everything was there, including little plastic forks and chop sticks. They lined the takeout box with foil so it stayed warm for the drive home. Very good experience and good tasting food. I will be going back.

Great service, tasty food, and reasonable price. Portions are decent as well. Highly recommended. One of the best places I’ve been to.

My husband and I saw thai valley while we were driving around looking for a place to eat. We came across this small strip of restaurants and decided that Thai sounded good, the hostess/​waitress was friendly, she greeted us and asked us to pick a table. She promptly filled out glasses with water and gave us a couple of menus. They have a good selection of dishes and we settled on fried tofu to start, I had a standard chicken pad thai (2 star) and my husband had the king crab fried rice (2 star).
The food had great presentation, and huge portions. Both meals were worth the price, the only complaint we had was that they tasted more like 3 – 4 star spice, and caught us both by surprise. Luckily we didn’t mind all that much. Thai iced tea was also really good here.
Will definitely be back, but we know for next time to ask them to dial down the spice a little. :)

Pretty mediocre thai food — only plus is that they actually serve Massaman curry, which many Thai places do not. I work in the area so its a decent place to go with coworkers, but I would not go out of my way to go here.
One negative is that they brought a table of 8+ people one check without asking if we wanted split it. Most places now-​a-​days will just give you separate checks. Its a bit more difficult for the restaurant but saves their customers a lot of trouble.

Great Thai food. Delicious use of spices, and the service is quick and very friendly. The portions are large and filling, and the variety of the lunch specials is good.
One of the best Thai restaurants in the area.

Decent Thai food and portions for the price, and close to work, so I go whenever I am in town for business. I always get the Lunch Set 2 (Chicken Red Curry).
It does get busy during lunch so I’m sure the waitresses are busy, but the service was pretty lacking this time. We came in when it wasn’t busy yet, but it took forever for someone to come take our order. As it got busy, we also had to flag down someone for water, again to ask for chopsticks, and the waitress hurried away when she left the check at our table so we didn’t get a chance to ask for a box for our leftovers. Someone had to get up and get the boxes from the front counter.

Always busy during lunch. If you’re in a rush I would avoid it. Their food is decent nothing outstanding, though going to school at the UW did spoil me for quality Thai food. Standard menu offering the various noodles and curries. I’ll be coming back

The food here is delicious, everything single thing I’ve tried has had great flavor and it’s never greasy! I usually do more take out than dine in but, the service here is pretty quick either way. Also, they can accommodate decent sized groups if you and your co workers need a place to grab lunch.

This review is for lunch only!
It’s close to my workplace and I’ve been here a fair number of times over the years. I’ve not had anything that wasn’t fairly decent, more specifically: — Lunch sets are a lot of food for the price (IMHO), I always have enough for at least 2 lunches — I’ve tried many of the appetizers and quite a bit off the veggie and noodle entrée options, and nothing has stood out as NOT fresh and tasty. — There might be tastier Thai joints around, especially in Seattle where I reside, but I appreciate the fact that here the food never tastes oily/​greasy. — Service is what it is for the busy lunch hour. In & out, fast and no frills. Just the way it should be!
I came today for a coworkers going-​away lunch and since I’m on day 21 (of 24) of a cleanse went for the Garlic Asparagus (43C) w/​chicken –5 stars– with the garlic sauce on the side, instead of cooked with. The waitress pooh-pooh’d me, saying it would NOT taste good since the sauce is raw but I insisted. Glad I did, the food actually was delish (just lightly sauteed asparagus and chicken, I asked for low oil in the sauté too!) and I added just a couple of drizzles of the sauce over it and it was perfect! I could see all the oil floating on top of the sauce dish so I am very happy that I insisted on the full portion of sauce NOT being cooked into the protein+veggie. Especially since I got it 5 stars, a little bit went a long way!
Thai Valley definitely remains steadily on my regular rotation of workday lunch spots.

Anytime I’m in the mood for Thai, I think of this place. It’s a bit of a drive for me, but it’s well worth it. Originally friends recommended I check out this place. They have great service and delicious food.
I recommend:
Kao Pad Sapparod
Orange Chicken (amazing)
Pad Thai
Thai Tea

I always get the phad khee mao and it never does me wrong. Always cooked well.
The other dishes though I’m not too big of a fan of.

Not much to say other than it’s near work and the lunch combo 2 is what i get once every 2 – 3 weeks when i crave something different.
taste decently authentic, price is 10 bucks or so, therefore nothing offensive about it.
friendly, fast (i order on the phone, drive over — about 5 mins, and pick up).
Suggestion — have some different choices for lunch combos? maybe rotate a bit?
it gets old after 2 years+

Thai Valley is a hidden gem in Everett. It’s located in a boring strip mall with a few other ethnic restaurants (and generic burger/​sandwich shops), and it definitely stands out. Every single time I’ve been in here, it’s busy. I guess you can say it’s the corporate work lunch go-​to in this area. The inside is a nice departure from the fast food mayhem of lunch hour rush.
I love their lunch specials. For less than $ 10, you can get an entrée (usually a curry, chicken, beef, or seafood dish) with soup, rice, and a generous heaping of pad thai. My favorite lunch special is the red curry.
I had the pleasure of trying their Tom Kha (chicken, coconut milk, and lemongrass soup) while I was super sick, and it is SO good. Usually this soup is hit or miss at Thai restaurants. Thai Valley nails it. Perfect combination of coconut milk, lemongrass, chicken, and seasonings. And for $ 8.95, it’s large enough to share (I took leftovers to go).
A word of caution! I like my food spicy… this means hot but also flavorful. If you order your dish «medium» here, it’s going to be spicier than you’re used to having. I have yet to order anything «mild,» because I am afraid it will go on the other end of the spectrum. But yeah, «medium» is sure to clear your sinuses out. I wonder what «spicy» would do!
The staff here is very on top of things. Always read to refill your water, etc. For being as busy as they are during the lunch rush hour, I am surprised they are so readily available.
