We went to this place the first time last night for the only reason, it was given a good review. My experience was not so good. First of all, the cup what I was trying to use for my jasmine tea, was dirty. The waitress looked at the old food stains on it, too and brought me a clean one. The soup (#21)was plenty and tasty. My friend ordered the Seafood Sunny Delight and he was happy with lots of different seafood on his plate. I ordered the Roast Duck Curry.$13.99) ..and was very very disappointed. I love duck, I was looking forward having a duck meal, but it was nothing like a duck meal. It had lots of curry liquid with different type of vegetables, but almost NO MEAT. I had to fish out the few pieces(I counted four)two inches of very thin meat from the liquid and wasnt even sure, what it was. It did not taste like duck, it did not look like duck. I had some anyway with the rice, which was plenty, but I left most of it untouched. When my friend paid for the dinner and was asked, how was everything, he actually complained about my so called Roast Duck dinner. Not sure if we ever go back, considering first the dirty cup and later my so called Duck plate with practically no meat in them.

I eat at this restaurant or get take-out two or three times a month, and have been doing this for years. The service is consistently good, the food great, and the portions large. A couple can easily have a great dinner and tip the server for under $30. Lots of bang for your buck. Ive eaten very mediocre Thai food elsewhere that cost much more. Plus, you can probably get a personal greeting from the owner. They make especially good Tom Ka (soup), Golden Noodles, Sen Mi (noodles), yellow and red curries of all kinds, dishes with peanut sauce (not watered down like at most places!), Duck Curry, and coconut ice cream. Afterwards, you can enjoy the leftovers youll probably have to take home and that good feeling that comes from supporting a local, family-owned, non-chain business.

This is one of my favorite places to eat in Monroe. Ive never had a complaint about the quality of the food and the service is typically top notch. I say typically because there is one waiter there that spoiled our dining experience one time (thankfully only one time) when we brought some friends from out of town. Apparently he overheard us talking about what we thought of his service and excused himself by saying that he only works there one day a week anyway. The other waiters and waitresses are awesome. The older gentleman even showed my daughter how to properly use chop sticks (then prepared a pair for beginners when she wasnt getting it).

The staff here are very friendly, helpful, and pleasant. The food was delicious which is an understatement, and came out within 10 minutes tops from ordering. Ive been to local places like Red Robin in Monroe where it took 25 minutes for a root beer float to come, when they werent even busy. Here the food came freshly cooked, in a timely fashion, and tasted incredible, along with the great staff and service, I will recommend this place to everyone!!!

Weve lived in the area for about 10 years, 6 of those eating here weekly. Currently, we can only eat here about once or twice a month, times being what they are, but we think that its one of the best restaurants in the Puget Sound region. The combination of the atmosphere, staff, menu & pricing keep us coming back. We do have a weekly night out for dinner and most often choose Benjarongs.

Best Thai Food in Monroe! I love the food here! The quality is great! Friendly service and if youre a regular here they will remember you! With the small number of local businesses to dine at, this is one I recommend! Love the Thai Basil Chicken, Panang, duck, and salmon curry! Make sure to eat here if youre living in Monroe, visiting or just want Thai food!

This is the best Thai restaurant ever. The owner offers personal attention to all customers. Food is excellent, tried most items on menu! Service is extraordinary. Friendly staff, fast service, elegant presentation, delicious foods. Great family or dating environment. Price is on par with average family dining, $10-15 per adult entree.

I was given 2 plates and 1 bowl + 3 spoons and 2 forks, what do I do with all that. Otherwise the food was mediocre as well as the staff. The Thai beer was good, got to give them that one. Wish they would add some cocktails the their menu. If I could describe this restaurant in one word it would be "ehh"

Loved the fried tofu we got in our Pad Thai- twas amazing! Also, as always, we had excellent service, and our water glasses never went empty; and we drink a lot of water. Best for last, you always get a small scoop of sorbet at the end! One of my favorite places to go, and well definitely be back soon.

This is our go-to place when my girlfriend and I are in a Thai mood. Food is great & never had a less than quality experience with staff. I would recommend the garlic chicken, holy basil or pad thai. Check the coupons book, there are often times a 10% off entire dinner coupon! great value!!!

Solid Thai restaurant off Highway 2 in Monroe - perfect location for a post hike dinner anytime you adventure towards Stevens Pass! Their heat ratings are definitely American - even 5 start isnt terribly hot. The food is fresh and very flavorful, and the service is quick and very friendly.

Such a wonderful place to go! They have the best Panag Curry!!! The Phad Thai is not that great but everything else we have had has been wonderful! They are fairly priced too. The service is above average and everyone is so friendly, totally recommend this place for anyone passing through!

Im a average consumer of Thai food. So far this has been the best place Ive gone to, so much so its hard to ever want to give another place a chance. Prices are fairly high but worth it. Some places charge you high prices and give you a fraction of the quality and quantity.

Its odd to admit it, but this quaint restaurant in Monroe may be my favorite restaurant ever. Im one to keep in mind how much Im paying for a meal, and the price per plate makes my mouth salivate! The owner is always glad to greet you himself, and the food is delish.

A family favorite. This is our go-to place for birthdays, end of school and start of school dinners. We always get Phad Thai (a must), Red Curry, Golden Cashew and sometimes a chicken satay appetizer. The staff is really nice and the service is fast.

Beautiful restaurant. Excellent service. Great food. I always get the Masaman(?) curry wherever I go for Thai food. This version was excellent although a little thin. But flavor was excellent. Prep work was decent and vegetable was cooked nicely.

I would highly recommend this place! They have great food at reasonable prices and good service. Ive never been disappointed after eating here and have never left hungry. They have great menu selections and great tea selections as well.

We went there recently and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience, from food to service to price to ambiance. Whats so outstanding about this restaurant for us is that just about everything about it was top notch. We will go back.
