Thai Crystal

Highly recommended. What a pleasant surprise. Little place looking from the outside but cozy and lovely. Ordered Po-Teak soup in the hotpot-style pot, Crystal Beef Noodle, chicken Massaman and sweet rice +mango. Absolutely delicious. The soup hit the spot on a cold day. Will definitely come back when I’m town again.

Where to begin? The panang as made was outstanding! Perfect amount of rice to go with it. Had to sample the basil fried rice as well, and it was also super yummy (I love Thai basil and the slight black licorice taste). Pad Thai was tasty, but a little sweet for my taste. We think a lime wedge and a little more peanuts would have done the trick. Red curry was delicious, also a little on the sweet side. PadMee was a friend’s recommendation and it was a good one! PadMee is a great intro to Thai food if you’re unsure. Note: it’s also made from egg noodles, so gluten sensitive-beware! For several dishes, the green onions are chopped a little long for our taste. Spice levels are pretty standard for Thai restaurants in America. We think a 2 is well spiced and you can still taste the food. Expect a normal heat level with their spice ratings. Bravo!

I was very impressed with the quality, flavor, and quantity of food. The service was also great - very friendly and happy feel throughout the whole restaurant. Thailand is known as 'The Land of Smiles' and I really felt a slice of that when I was in there. The cashew beef was delicious and the beef was a quality steak-like texture. Great flavor to the filling in the wonton. I also ordered a Thai iced tea and it was incredible and enormous. This meal is up there with the best I've ever had, so I'd say it's definitely worth the stop if you're anywhere near Pendleton. I will definitely be going back again as soon as possible!

We stopped in here today passing through town and had the most excellent lunch! Since both me and my partner are both vegan, it looked like the best place around for meatless dishes. We started with the Avocado Fresh Rolls, that were delicious and come with a creamy, perfectly flavored peanut sauce. Then we ordered the Avocado Fried Rice (minus the eggs), which neither of us had tried before. It was also delicious! The prices were very reasonable and the service was fantastic!

I went here probably every 2 weeks when I was pregnant. Only thing that didn’t make me sick. The staff is always friendly and inviting, they would always remember me and ask about the baby, and still do to this day. Your food is amazing and so is your customer service! I appreciate all your hard work, and it doesn’t go unnoticed!
