Thai Ginger Pacific Place

I ordered the Smoked Salmon Curry and it was amazing. They asked how hot I wanted it on a scale of 1 to 5 and got the 5. I've had more spicy at other places so nothing I couldn't handle. I've eaten my fair share of curries but this one must have been the best so far. The taste was perfectly balanced. This place is a hidden gem.

Thai Ginger is a FANTASTIC find! It is located on the 4th floor of the Pacific Place shopping center alongside other highly rated restaurants. Thai Ginger is local and holds its own, even having the number one rated dish (Pad Thai) in Seattle. (I do not know the official name of the award but it's worth noting even if I don't know the name.).

I was worried about the bad reviews but I flat out disagree with them - maybe things changed. I found the food to be delicious. I had the calamari and the red curry dish. Both of them were packed with flavor and had a good balance of texture and temperature. The sauce for the calamari is very tasty and unique. The red curry is really something special. I’d like to have that again. Here’s what made the red curry even better. The portion was huge and it came out very fast. The service was great from the moment I walked in. I noticed smiles and attentiveness from the host and server. The lighting is warm and ambient. I think the space is used well. It just needs more customers. It’s actually a good restaurant. I’ll be back the next time I’m in Seattle. If you like Thai food, you’ll like it. I say give it a try.

The pork fried rice is so good. The rice is fluffy and the flavor of the egg perfectly blended into the rice. I said this as someone who grew up in Taiwan, I actually prefer the fried rice here than the one in Ding Tai Fung next door. I don’t get why this place gets 3.6 stars. The waiters aren’t super chatty, but I prefer it that way.

Great location and ambience! Really kind staff and very attentive I liked the Cashew chicken stir fry but was hoping for more meat. The sauce is amazing and pairs well with rice. My husband enjoyed his green curry. Pad Thai was ok- a little bit too saucy and needs more tamarind flavor. We also enjoyed the fried tofu with a sweet chili and peanut dip as well!
