The 12 Best Thai Restaurants In Seattle - Seattle - The Infatuation

"If you, like us, have watched loops of those adorable TikTok videos where babies discover ice cream for the first time, then you’ve already witnessed the joy we feel about Noodle Boat Thai. This Issaquah spot packs so much flavor into each dish that it feels like you're eating in high definition. The yellow curry fried rice tastes like every single grain has been steeped in spice, while pops of sweetness from the raisins and pineapples complement the nutty flavor. Their tom kha soup bursts with so much lemongrass and ginger you will literally have to pick pieces out—but the effort is rewarding. While there’s nothing much to the dining room except some plants and a few very cute elephant statues, Noodle Boat works for a quick lunch or a nice dinnertime respite after spending three hours at the nearby Costco." - kayla sager riley, aimee rizzo
