Local place with delicious food. Sometimes I feel that the prices are a bit steep with the portion sizes, but it is arguably the best Thai food in Bellingham. My favorites are the Pad See ew and Phad Thai.

Are you looking for actual heat in your Thai food? Are you looking for a place that takes pride in their quality? Then please support this long standing location. I ordered their special Khao soi and not only was it beautiful and complex, it was satisfying and just what the fall weather calls for. Can't recommend enough!

We've been to many Thai restaurants but this place is truly an authentic one. So glad that we tried this place with family from California after going to Tulip Town. The food was delicious! My favorite was the appetizer, Thai street food Miang Kham, So refreshing!The service was excellent, friendly, polite and attentive server and owner. We will try their other branch in Seattle. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I'm not sure if it's the cool weather or some kind of hormonal imbalance, but I've found myself craving Thai food lately. Thank goodness On Rice is located practically across the street from my office! I can order ahead, hop on over for take-out, and within minutes be sitting at my desk with a delicious lunch ready to devour.My favorite on their lunch specials is the red curry with chicken. It's served with a heaping side o' jasmine rice and some pad thai. Plus it comes with soup! For around $10 this is a steal of a deal. The portion is huge and I often have enough left over for dinner. And most importantly, the food is tasty. The curry is house-made, with plenty of tender chicken plus freshly cooked veggies. I like it with 4 stars of spice. I find their star level runs a little lower here than other Thai joints in town. So if you usually order 3 stars you might want to bump it up a level here.The pad Thai is solid, too. I like that the noodles are super soft and absorb most of the saucy goodness essential to a good PT. The lunch special includes a meatless pad Thai, but (obviously) if you order from the main menu you can get any number of protein options with it. And let's not forget the soup. It's a simple, clear broth with vegetables. I usually save mine for a mid-late-early afternoon snack for when life at the office is dragging.

You could easily drive past this place if you aren't familiar with the area. It sits up pretty high on the hill and the sign is hidden by trees on the south side. The entrance is pretty steep and the parking lot is in desperate need of repairs and striping. The outside could use a facelift, the dead plants are very unattractive and one wonders whether the same lack of attention is paid to the rest of the business.Although the entry is somewhat grimy the rest of the restaurant seems tidy enough, no obvious dust or food debris lying around, the tables and chairs were in good repair and the decor is pleasantly Asian inspired. I did notice a couple of small bullseye holes in the windows though.Service was fast.We ordered beverages and fresh rolls for starters. The drinks were good and the rolls were very nice. For mains I ordered Red Curry Chicken, when the waiter asked me what protein I wanted, I repeated "chicken". When the food came out guess what was missing? I had it taken back and the cooks added some chicken. Now, I don't know whether the waiter screwed up or the cooks, but that was pretty ridiculous.Despite the screw up the curry was pretty tasty.My husband's Emperor Noodles were scrumptious. I highly recommend it.We will probably return as this is only one of a handful of Thai places that serves hard liquor and has decent food.

Excellent food! I swear every time I've had their pad Thai it's tasted exactly the same as the time before, if not some how better. Also the massive portion sizes are a massive plus.

This particular review is for a pick up order. I just paid $38 plus for pod Thai. And basil fried rice with pork. You used to get large portions filling the Styrofoam or paper container, but they have reduced the amount of food they put in them. That's a lot of money for rice and noodles. I would have to say that I won't be dining there any longer. The food itself was OK. I had the basil fried rice, which was a little greasy, but it was just average. I'm not sure what happened, but the prices went up. The portions went down and the quality of food I would say was down.

We ordered several items from the menu. All of them arrived hot and fresh. Love the peanut sauce for the fresh rolls. Service has always been great and this time was no exception. Our household is completely sick. Soup was something that hit the spot
