The food was incredibly lack luster. For the quality and quantity very over priced. Ordered: crispy garlic chicken, it tasted like cheap fish paste and very over cooked, the paradise prawns were palatable, the sauce was quite diluted and soupy. None of it came w even a small side of rice - which was an extra $2. Asked for peanut sauce and had been excited at the portion that came but that to was quite diluted, flavorless & soupy and they charged $3 for it. Wouldve been happy to pay the prices, had the food been half of what it promised to been. Politely sent the chicken back because it was to awful and it seemed they staff was genuinely offended :/ it made us quezy for the rest of the evening. I will not be back anytime soon. Though I am told the pad Thai is decent. I had had come to expect more from the Covington area, especially after the reviews I had read.

Now that they have started to build Covington up a bit more, we get places like this moving in. Trust me, if you are considering going to Applebees or The Rock, go here instead! The ingrediants taste really freash, and the portions are substantial without being out of control. Very basic for Thai food, great for someone who "is not a fan of Thai food" to change their mind, nothing scary or intimidating on the menu. The fresh rolls are delicious here. And the service is really prompt and not pushy. They take your order, and before you know it, it is right in front of you all hot and delicious. This is also a cute date spot, its got low-ish lighting and a few really intimate tables you could request.

Our experience here has always been pleasant and the food good. Staff has always been accommodating. My concern is that now the payment method is done digitally.We were given a choice of the tip starting at 15% and going up. My concern is that we paid the tip also on the tax and if you add that up by every customer for a month, that is a lot of money. I dont pay the tip at restaurant on the tax. I pay it on the food. We used a credit card and that was the only option given. Will we be returning? Well see.

Went there today. Ordered Pad Thai. The meat was way too dry, chewy. Rest of it was sweet and not spicy at all. I go to Thai for spice, I can get bland food every where else. So I asked for some chilli sauce to spice it. Ordered tea which was a cup of hot water with a pouch of Jasmine tea, not worth it. Tea is usually free with meal in lots of Chinese restaurants. Decor was nice. There are better Thai restaurants in Kent and Renton so I will skip this one in future.

This was our 3rd visit with my family, and we had a bad experience this time. The food was awful (too salty). We ordered medium spicy but what we got was spicy food (5 star). When we asked to give less spicy food they didnt like it, after few minutes they gave salty food. We had no other option to pay and leave the place quickly. Will never go to this restaurant again.

This place is very good! Its hard to find good Thai restaurants, so its exciting when you do find one. Favorites to get is the Tom Yum, Pad Se Ew and Red Curry. Absolutely delicious. Reasonably priced ; easily able to serve 3 people; or to have leftovers for the next day. Love the Thai Iced Tea, really good and love the presentation.

Went here tonight, and was disappointed in the atmosphere, the prices were high but they are everywhere now days, but then the food came and OMG it was way way better than expected!!! Some of the most flavorful Thai food Ive ever had! They are obviously spending money on ingredients not other things so Im OK with that... Try it!

Its been the same lady the three times Ive been here and she is always very friendly and welcoming. The prices are good and the food is delicious! My boyfriend thought his salmon was overcooked though delicious anyways. Ill never be afraid to try new things here, knowing that everything will taste great! Will come back often :)

I usually get orders to go, so this is exclusively on the food... I have been going to this location for a while, and I can say for certain the food has changed. At first it was REALLY good, then it really dropped off, and the last time it was pretty good again. Id like to see some consistency, but otherwise I will keep going.

This place is great. The staff is extremely helpful and the food is wonderful. Just what you want when youre dining out (or ordering for take out) They also provide an e-mail address on their website if you have any questions or just want to let them know how theyre doing. Definitely will continue to be a returning customer!

Its okay. Service was a little slow, despite only having three tables in the restaurant at time of service. The food is mediocre at best in regards to the Pad Thai with prawn and for the Masamune curry. I asked for "full spicy" and got a weird look from the server - turns out it was not spicy at all.

They serve me with rotten, brown veggies in my Green Curry! I mentions to them about the brown looking green peppers in my curry but they didnt even say sorry nor fix me new one! My husband other dish, in was dry he mentioned. Poor business practice! Ill never go there anymore.

One of our favorite places to go when we have a baby sitter. Weve enjoyed the yellow curry, noodle soup, and other more standard dishes such as pad thai and cashew nut. All have been great except for one instance where the soup was lacking in flavor.

Do you have a place you go back to every so often, even though every time the food is a disappointment? This is my place. The crispy garlic chicken was tough and dry. I wish Covington had more Thai food.

Ordering my lunch takeout from Benjarong that I get every few weeks or so, and it occurs to me that I should probably share how great I think they are. So there you go. Now Ill go pick up my takeout.

I was in a rush so the service seemed kind od slow but now that I think about it, it was just fine considering how many other people were there. The food was delicious and not too expensive.

Really good food , the only thing that really upset me was there was a long black hair in my fresh roll, and all they did was bring me more spring rolls and still charged me for it !!

This is a great local place for Thai food. Im a big fan of the red curry, but I have never had something I didnt like here. The waitress was very prompt and friendly.
