Dined in for the first time in years and the remodel is BEAUTIFUL. Nice use of a little cozy space! Lunch combo special $12.95 is a steal. It came with choice of select (yet generous) list of chicken/tofu entrees, pad thai, rice, and an eggroll. Ordered the basil chicken combo & panang curry combo. It was perfect and I can see myself definitely returning.

Amazing food! I was here a couple of years ago and remembered how great the food was despite the " greasy spoon" aura the place gave off. I just came back for done amazing pad Thai and see that there's new management, new faces, it looks like the grand-daughter has taken over and they've stared to make some long overdue improvements to the dining g room and the food is still amazing!!!!

First time to this Grandma Thai place. It actually operates from a family home in Kent, with an elderly gentleman serving customers and the chef who would be his wife, grandma with an assistant cooking in the kitchen. This business is in fact very homely and has the impact of being at someone's home which makes others feel comfortable and relaxed. The menu is well organized and provides popular dishes like Pad Thai, curries, salad and soups etc. We started our meal with their garlic fried chicken, which was rather salty with the black sauce on top, but after removing the top ingridients, the chicken is very crispy and tasty. Pad Thai with tofu was well prepared with a nice aroma of stir fried cooking and the best dish of the meal was the seafood Tom Yum which had the perfect taste with herbs. Spices added the right heat and nice hand picked ingredients i.e, baby squid, scallop, shrimp etc. One of the best Tom yum I experience in the Seattle area. Be aware though, they slap on a service charge. So take notice of that on the check before tipping.

We dined at the restaurant in July 2023. It was a hot day, the AC was on, but the whole place (an d house) was hot from the heat coming from the kitchen. Food was still good, though not as good as I remembered from years ago. I still recommend Grandma's wings. Other dishes we tried - Pad See Ew (not as smokey as I like), basil stirfry with beef, red curry and papaya salad, were all good, but nothing too special. Service is excellent. The waiter told us that him and his wife own the restaurant. He takes care of the front of the house, and his wife cooks in the kitchen. They have owned and run this place for over 10 years. Come and support this small family business!

I'm from out of town here for work and ordered Uber eats. I ordered two meals because I wanted lunch the next day. I ordered shrimp yakisoba and cashew chicken. Wow! The food was so good!! My only complaint was I asked for a level three heat on the yakisoba and there was no heat, but I dipped the juice from the cashew chicken in it and it was perfect. I would highly recommend!

G-ma got it down. She got the recipe down to a T! I was bummed out that G-ma was closed for Christmas. Guess G-ma gotta spend time with Mister Clause and her reindeers. Service is like your typical run down Asian restaurant - zero to none. That's why we always do deliveries! The food is one of the best Thai food in the PNW if not THE best! Pad Kee Mao is super. When I wasn't on my vegan diet, I had the crab fried rice, and boyyyy that was killah! Full of crab meat and the rice was fried just right! The ambience of this place is your typical ma and pops type of deal - not so romantic. More like a grab your buddy let's head out to lunch than a hey honey let's put in a reservation for two for our 25th year anniversary dinner. You get the point! Order to go or Uber eat this place bc G-ma be throwin' it down!
