Best Pho & Thai - Great fresh food!

by babalcom

My husband and I dine at Best Pho & Thai at least once a week and order take-out most weeks also. We like Best Pho & Thai because it is family owned and ran, you will be served by a family member any day of the week. We are always seated immediately - service has always been courteous with lots of attention. The owners spend their evenings preparing the various stocks for the fresh soups they serve, you can taste the difference all of their attention makes. We have had most of the menu items, ours favorites are the Pho, Tom Ka and WonTon Noodle soups and we never miss the fresh rolls. We eat Pho often and always come back to Best Thai for the friendly service and delicious food!

• Pros: Great food friendly service.
• Cons: It is not a candle lit romantic restaurant.

Good food, don't try Thai Coffee or Pho

by nt2008

I visited this place quite often since I first found out about it about 9 months ago. Dishes that I had tried and liked: Phad Khi Mao, Phad Thai, Green Curry, Phad Sei-Iew. My boyfriend ordered the Thai coffee and did not like it at all. I tried it and agrred with him. It's very weird and bland tasting.

Their Pho is not that good either. I am Vietnamese and I will not recommend it to anyone.

• Pros: affordable, good food
• Cons: customer service is not that great

Great, friendly service, Great food!

When I travel to Renton, I always make it a point to dine here. The service has always been very prompt and friendly. In particular, the gentleman who owns the restaurant goes out of his way to provide a great dinining experience.

I've had the spring rolls, Tom Yum, Tom Kha, and Pho Tai soups, as well as the Red Curry and Panang. All have been excellent quality. As the previous reviewer noted; it's not fancy, but it is a nice, clean, well run family restaurant. I really like places like this as opposed to the mega-chains.

• Pros: A good, clean, family business
• Cons: It's not in my hometown!

Absolutely Fresh and Delicious Thai!

by cmn777

Our family has tried many Thai restaurants. The first time we went to Best Thai and Pho we were greeted by an extremely friendly man who turned out to be the owner. The restaurant was clean and pleasant. He was kind to our children and it was apparent he was a family man as well. He shared with us how he buys his produce fresh everyday. And sure enough it was extremely fresh and light tasting. I highly recommend the spring rolls and Ginger Chicken. The meal was completed with a homemade pastry that his wife and daughter makes fresh. I have seen several business parties dining, families and singles alike. You can not go wrong with anything you try. On a hot summer day go and try a Thai smoothie made at the smoothie bar.

• Pros: Fresh fresh fresh, Excellent Panang, Wonderful Phad Thai
