Allison Yu: Crispy duck rolls are wrapped in rice paper. Flavorful & delicious! Also highly recommend the curry artichoke heart with ginger rice
Charlottes: Exceptional! Best meal on our Pacific Northwest tour so far... tamarind beef salad, asparagus w duck egg, and pork patties all standouts. Cocktails incredible too. Go!
Nikki Chau: Ginger rice is *not* vegetarian. Tofu banh mi is tiny, not offensive, but not so incredible that I'd come running back, especially at $8 a piece, and not even as tasty as Pho Bac down the street.
SeattleRevealed: Youre a fool if you don't order the spring rolls, possibly the best I've ever had...extremely fresh and they have a nice crunch to them even though they are wrapped in rice paper
Crystal Q: Get the noodle bowls! So good!
The Seattle Times: The lacy, marvelously messy banh xeo was a bountiful bundle of pork-, shrimp- and sprout-filled pancake meant for wrapping with Vietnamese herbs and leafy lettuce. Read more.

Lavone S.: Amazing Thai food - try the Thai Siam hot pork and angel wings!
Matt Lopez: Ambient, good fresh rolls, great prices.
Ann: One of the legit, authentic Thai restaurants in Seattle. The owners are also philanthropic who hold benefit dinners raise money for charity each year. Like I said, legit.

Doug Bauder: The crispy garlic chicken is a must. Thai fried rice is pretty great too. Small dining room can fill up quick, great for take out too.
Michelle D.: The crispy garlic duck they have right now is as good as the crack chicken, if not better. Just get both!
Melissa Flint: OMG crispy garlic chicken. ;)
Ann Jun: Get the smickles! Fish and pickles go so well together! The Scotch olives are a good alternative if you can’t do fish.
Sunny Nason: Kate’s Espresso martini is the BEST in Seattle!
John (aka “PHATFoodFan”): The service was great but despite the high ratings for the restaurant on Yelp, my main entree was weak. DON’T get the crusted rockfish! The fish had an ammonia taste and the crust was very greasy.

Ray Ray: The seven courses of beef is a lot of food for most, offers a great balance of fresh and hot veggie/beef, and very worth it!
Trixie Jones: Their lemongrass beef skewers? Do it.
Eater: Bridging the divide between no-frills pho joints and higher-end Vietnamese dining, Tamarind Tree has an enormous menu of dishes that feel high end, even if prices may not be. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
