In the Ramakien — Thailand's beloved epic — Hanuman is the immortal monkey-warrior: loyal, mischievous, and impossibly strong. To rescue a kidnapped queen he tore mountains from the earth and bounded across an entire ocean in a single leap.
He is courage with a grin. Strength in service of others. We took his name because that is how we cook — boldly, generously, and with a little mischief in the spice.
Thai food is not one cuisine but many. Our kitchen travels north to south — each region with its own herbs, heat, and heart. Tap a region to see what it brings to the table.

Cool mountain kitchens, mild curries thick with coconut, and the slow warmth of Burmese-spiced stews.
On the menu
Cool mountain kitchens, mild curries thick with coconut, and the slow warmth of Burmese-spiced stews.
Loud, fresh and fiery. Pounded papaya salads, lime-bright larb and sticky rice eaten by hand.
The Bangkok table — balanced, refined, a little regal. Home of Pad Thai and the great curries.
Sun, sea and turmeric. The boldest heat in the country, built on fresh seafood and golden spice.

I use to live in Thailand and this food is comparable for quality and fresh homemade ingredients. We won't be going other places for Thai on the Eastside anymore.
Amazing food! Highly recommend their papaya salad and ginger garden. I've been coming here for years and the consistency and high quality make this a stand out location. Bonus points for amazing service, one of their servers chased me for 2 blocks to return my cellphone!
Best Thai I've ever had! Thank you...I got the Crispy garlic chicken..yum!
Great papaya salad made with fresh ingredients. To die for. Pad Thai was also quite tasty. Cozy place with jazz music playing in the background.
