lunchtime gone.... – I work near this restaurant and had thought it would be fun to order thai and take out to eat on the Square in the sunshine, so called a good 45 minutes in advance to be sure to have it ready by the time my lunch came around (and told them so). I came in exactly as planned, but nothing. They went into the kitchen to check on it, nothing. when they came back to the front reception area, they asked me what I needed again- even though it was exactly the same person I talked to 5 minutes ago.... "Oh yeah, le... read more

Pricey and – I thought the decor was very nice. And the water had a good 'taste' to it. However, I went at lunchtime on a Saturday and got a dinner menu. About $20 for lunch - and that was without dessert or a drink, other than water. The food was ok, but not memorable, have had much better Thai food at half the price. Even the rice, which cost extra, did not seem to have the right texture. Don't have any interest in returning.

Lousy place for breakfast – My friends and I went there hoping that we could find Thai menu for breakfast. Well, the only thai on the menu were thai fried rice and thai wrap. The rest on the menu was like frittata, waffles, and omelets. So we were a little bit disappointed. But we gave it a try thinking maybe they are good with these dishes. One of my friends got the Thai wrap and my other friend got the Belgian waffles. I got the frittata with mushroom and asparagus. Our food finally came after we waited for more than 1/2 a... read more

BEWARE OF TO GO ORDERING – I work for an office that gets lunch here once a week. Though the food is fabulous, there has NEVER been a week without major errors. Missing orders, wrong dishes, requested heat level wrong, you name it. We call and complain every week but they apparently don't care, 'cause it never changes. The one time I went there to eat, the portions were about half of those received with take-out, so you're screwed either way. One other thing - they screw up the company Christmas Dinner more often than not. N... read more

Portland's Thai darling is rekindling downtown. – In Short With a shimmering orange Lucite bar serving up fiery concoctions like Bangkok Bloody Marys, a dramatic stone altar and an ancient Buddha head, the remodeled dining room offers a welcome refuge. The signature dish, Fish on Fire--halibut presented in foot-high flames--says it all. Even the grilled beef, which is served at room temperature, simply zings at first, but the sensation builds, leaving behind smoldering hints of garlic and lime.

Favorite Thai Restaurant! – Typhoon has been my family's favorite source of Thai cuisine since we moved to Portland almost 10 years ago. It was the first restaurant we visited upon arrival, and it has been the place we brought all our out-of-town visitors to the moment they get of the plane. The pad thai is, of course, a must-have, but if you're in to spice, I reccommend the Curry Roma. Also, no Typhoon meal is complete without Miang Kum, a delicious DIY appetizer: spinach leaves with assorted toppings, including lime, shrim... read more

Thai-tastic – Since I moved here early this past summer I have been searching for the best Thai in town, and I think I've found it. The curries are amazing, the noodles are incredible, and thankfully they seem to have fixed their service problems (my first visit wasn't that great, but things appear to have changed since then). If you're looking for good Thai food in Portland, this is it.

Food is Good Service is Horrible – Food at Typhoon is good but the service is awful. While I was their they forgot to put in my maincourse. The server never cmae to check on me and the excuse was that he was new. They then screwed my order up and had to fix it over. The manager comped my meal but I will not be back. I also let the concierge in my hotel know how terrible the service was and not to reccomend this place to anyone else.
