Khao San

"We used to eat at the downtown location all the time when we lived in the Pearl. Imagine my joy when I found a location in our new neighborhood in Bethany village! I've never had a single thing on the menu that I didn't love. We have taken many friends here that swear it's the best Thai they have had in Portland, which is saying something because we have some great ones! Highly recommend their spicy basil chicken and their crispy pork belly and green beans. You can also purchase containers of their house-made chili oil. Happy hour on weekdays until 6 is also pretty good!"

"This place is not serving authentic Thai..the owners are not honest in the sense they don't put much veggies no matter what dish you would order they are frugal about putting variety of veggies for a person who don't eat meat ..I mean why would a person select veggie as a protein and you are putting nothing in return only 5-6 pieces of veggies They add just the cheaper veggies .ppl are paying their hard earn money to get premium veggies in dishes n u r giving them spinach or 1 piece of veggies...you need to put alotttt of veggies and no frozen but fresh premium veggies in each of ur dishes..will not recommend anyone this restaurant ..the best one I found so far is Zab Thai restaurants go there cos they give real veggies and not frozen or cheap veggies...they are the gems in Thai food ..do not go to khao Sen in bethany area"

"This place has got to be one of our favorite Thai Cuisine restaurants in the area. We had the Khao Soi and the Massaman curry. Both the dishes were very good. In fact, we probably thought that the Khao Soi was one of the best we've had in a long time. The people here are very good. Great location. Ambience is also very nice. The only thing to note is that rice was not included in the curry dish, which is not typical. All in all a very good experience. We are definitely going to go back here again for the yummy food, and try out some other dishes too."

"This is one of the regular Thai restaurants. You can find some unique Thai street food options and also traditional Thai food items ( common in the US ) on the menu. The food quality and taste are great. They use unique ingredients/cooking methods that differentiate them from other average Thai resturants.Service is also good."

"Khao San is an authentic Thai experience. The food is amazing! This place is great with allergies. I am gluten and dairy free along with other allergies and have never had a problem eating here. The menu is clearly labeled with all potential allergens (dairy, gluten, soy, egg, and more) and even with my allergies, there are only a few items on the menu that I can't eat. For those of you who have food allergies, you know what a big deal this is. Some of my favorites on the menu include the Summer Rolls (hello peanut sauce!), Khao San Holy Basil Chicken, Spicy Chicken, Pad Thai, Kor Mu Yaang, and the Thai Iced Tea (free refills!). Khao San is a small, local business with amazing food and service. Go there....seriously...why are you still reading this? Go try it now!"
