Thai Trio

Thai Trio is one of my favorite restaurants in all of Washington. I just happened upon it one day and now it's my go to place. I have to seriously limit myself to once a week so I don't spend all of my money here. My favorite dish is the salt and pepper pork belly. I tried to make it at home and still haven't found how to make it taste as good as they make it. The flavors are amazing. For the drink, I get the very milky strawberry banana and my husband gets the Thai iced tea which we both love. Speaking of my husband, we just got married in October and actually went here after our marriage license signing to celebrate. It was the perfect end and delicious cap to our day. The people here are also always really nice and always up to chat. It feels like a family vibe. I've already highly recommended this place to friends so I'm doing the same for anyone else that's reading this. One day I'll move on from the pork belly and try something else but for now, I'll stick to it till I'm tired of it.

We wanted to fall in love with this place. Upon arriving we were offered a table. The "chairs" are simply metal stools. Not comfy. We ordered the Crispy Tamarind Delight (Chicken) and Pad Thai. The Pad Thai was so fishy that my wife, who likes fish, was nearly gagging. She could only eat three bites. Note that she has been enjoying Pad Thai for decades, including the day before our visit. She knows what it's supposed to taste like. I also sampled the dish and agreed that it was super fishy. We told the server about the fish taste and smell, to which she replied that "we dont use fish in that." We asked for possibly more of some sauce, to maybe lessen the fish taste. She said no, we dont do that. We found the Pad Thai practically inedible. They didn't care, honestly. The chicken dish was tasty although the chicken was a little dry and tough. We won't be back.

Nice place! Ordered their special Tom Yum. They advised me on the spice level. Had 3. Next time will try 5, but I can easily tolerate spicy food. Their mango stew my rice is really popular, saw many people ordering it. They have to go options, so took one soup home.
