We all very-much enjoyed our dinner here! Our daughter joined us on this jaunt to the Pacific Northwest, and as soon as we landed in Portland (around dinner time), my wife did a google search. She was on a quest for good Asian food. As it turns out, THAI ORCHID popped up, we all came to an agreement to give it a go, and we were on our way to the state of Washington. When asked, our server pointed out a number of suggestions that she thought were house specialities. The Red Pumpkin Curry had stood out as an intriguing possibilty, prior to our asking our server, so when she mentioned it, "it was a go"! The dish indeed was a hit as all of us enjoyed the flavors and textures that soon arrived. Not a single grain of rice was left by meal's end. Three of the sushi offerings were also brought to our table and all were pretty good. Not to complain, but...the spicy tuna roll could have had a little more heat to it. But again, overall, all of our rolled seaweed and rice (aka: Maki) selections were well done and quite satisfying .
Our server was very conscientious and caring. She checked in on us often and had a very pleasant demeanor. Finally, the iced tea that my wife ordered (*just the regular tea that you get if you ask for an iced tea) stood out as one of the restaurant's pleasant mini-surprises as It has hints of vanilla and went down so-so smooth! My beverage choice was a hazy IPA that also was super satisfying. I think it had a high alcohol content as I was a little tipsy by the time the bill came. The ambiance is pleasant and welcoming and I would recommend the trip across the bridge.
