What People Are Saying About Thaiger Room

In Short – A strong peanut smell fills the air at this dimly lit eatery. With brick walls so rustic that the mortar is chipping and lights dangling from visible wires, the atmosphere is anything but romantic. However, if standard Thai fare like pad thai is the goal, the service is speedy and the result is a satisfying plate of noodles with choices of chicken, shrimp or tofu.

Food and service are fab.

by jes7

If you get takeout here, they always make sure you have water to drink while you wait. The whole staff always seems friendly. The food is delicious and they are always speedy with getting it out to you. The restaurant is clean (which is a big deal for U-District). Love this place!!!

  • Pros: Friendly and quick service
1 Star Rating: Poor

Don't. Ever.

by nothaigerroom

I've been a loyal customer here for years. They are ungrateful for my patronage, want more money than I choose to give them, and I ----- after eating there today. (*edited to comply with terms of use) I will never set foot in that restaurant again. Why? For the awesome atmosphere? For their superior food quality? They have three competitors on the same block. This review is the last five minutes of my life they will ever waste, and I hope it does you some good.

  • Pros: close to UW
  • Cons: everything else

Cheap but be wary of extra charges

by udubber_julie

The lines at Thaiger Room are no longer existent and their loyal customers have continued to dwindle...and for good reason. Thaiger Room's service leaves everyone feeling like their business is not only unappreciated but also unwanted. Although they have good prices for their portions, their food is either extremely tasty and fresh or stale....almost as if they had re-heated yesterday left over ingredients quickly and covered it with tons of sauce to hide the fact. Also, their service leaves customers feeling as if they are intrusive and bothersome to the waitresses and THEY CHARGE AN AUTOMATIC 18 PERCENT GRATUITY FOR PARTIES OF 6 OR MORE but they don't tell you this. It's as if they were trying to deceive you by placing the price as pre-tax and purposefully assuming that we can not read their chicken scratch. Make sure to look over your bill twice for any extra charges that shouldn't be there or you will end up being cheated also. Overall, good food but extremely inconsistent.

  • Pros: Big portions, cheap
  • Cons: Service, poor lighting
