We have been to this place a few times over the years - - it seems to be a go-to thai restaurant for many in our neighborhood but not so much for me. And, I'm not sure why exactly - - service is super friendly and helpful, dining area is fine, food's good. Their fresh rolls are crisp and delicious, peanut sauce is super yummy and the chicken satay is seasoned and cooked well. The spice on the green papaya salad is fab, but I can't really give a fair assessment of it because we ordered it without the tomatoes- - not much else there so we will skip it next time. The Mussaman Curry with tofu is also something I will skip next time. The tofu was tough and it had too many onions. Street parking. Bathroom in the back.

Finally tried this spot after driving by it so many times. We ordered the chicken pad thai, spicy basil fried rice and the bbq chicken to go. Very nice folks. We had a drink while we waited. The food smelled so great and the flavors were lovely. The pad thai was disappointing because it literally had no vegetables... literally just noodles and chicken. Like why ?? The basil rice was pretty basic.. chicken fried rice. The bbq chick head a nice flavor but it was dry :( Anyway .. hate to leave a bad review but oh well

Cha Ba Thai replenished my tired and weary body after some hiking out in the PNW! As I walked from the back to the front of the restaurant, the sounds of kitchenware moving and the chefs talking (heard from the back screen door) got me pumped! I came in on a Friday evening and got seated immediately. I ordered Khao Soi and Panang Curry, both with beef. Both dishes were super flavorful, but I found myself digging in on the khao soi a bit more. It's a coconut curry noodle soup that I believe comes from Northern Thailand; the broth is really rich and it can be pretty filling! I thought the portion given here was perfect, and if you are down to try a soup with broth that isn't so soupy, but more gravy-ish, then I'd def rec trying this.The service here was quick, friendly, and very courteous. If I'm visiting Portland again, I'd def take a friend here!

This place can be easily missed. Make sure to slow down as you try to find this place. The food was just decent. Nothing really spectacular. The bbq chicken was a bit on the dry side and the grilled squid's portion was definitely on the small side. On the menu photo, it seems like we would get a lot more. The Pad Thai and yellow curry was amazing . Definitely recommend getting those.Vibe: 3/5Taste: 3/5Clean: 4/5Value: 3/5Service: 4/5Parking: 3/5

I've been going to Cha Ba Thai on NE Sandy when I want Thai food for many years now. Nice staff, really delicious food, and an attractive and spotlessly clean dining room.

A tale of two visits for me. First time i was blown away by the "thai spicy" Pad Khee Mao, and a second dish which was also on point. Was excited to return. Then the second time I went with a group of about six, and nothing was all that amazing. Once 'fine' and once 'amazing' - I'm assuming it depends a lot on who is in the kitchen on any given day. Service is good and tons of seating, so it's great to drop in any time, especially if you have a group to seat like we did.

Absolutely love this restaurant. It doesn't disappoint when one orders takeout and the ambience of you eat in is such a step up from many Thai restaurants.Plus, the staff are friendly, attentive and always smiling. Also SO superior in every way to the Chaba Thai on NE Alberta which is only a few blocks from our home - we come here instead.
