We came in on Christmas Day straight from the airport and was craving Thai food. This establishment came up on our list on our way to the hotel and didn't disappoint at all. Even on a rainy day (because PNW) the chef was cooking up some marvelous meals behind the kitchen counter in his "sando" (Hane's sleeveless A-shirt) because its like 100 degrees in there with all the stove burners going on and tossing of the massive woks. The service was friendly and accommodating for the holidays and it just felt nice to be served on Christmas Day. Food was delicous and we finished it ALL. Usually we have leftovers. I recommend this place for special events or just a day/night with your loved ones.

Five stars! So hear me out. A friend and I came in and we were the only guests. Hm.... Not sure how that is possible with its Yelp ratings, but here we are. So I ordered the pineapple curry (I know, I know, not a real Thai dish) and asked to add cashews to it. Very low heat. Now, curry is like catnip to me, and holy smokes, I was not disappointed. It was Deeeee-licious! I was grateful that the portion was big enough to split up so I could re-live the amazing curry bliss the next day as well. Oh man, I tell you, it may not be the best Thai restaurant in the area (maybe it is, I don't know....) but my experience was exceptional! The waitress was excellent, and it was a very large, clean restaurant. I was there on a Monday, maybe that's why it was so empty, but ya'll are missing out. Get down to Malakor and get you some beautiful Thai deliciousness!

Malakor has become my boyfriend's and my date night spot. Since writing my previous review here a year ago, we've probably been here at least 25 times because the food is just too addicting! It is the most authentic Thai food I've had since visiting Thailand, and the dishes are consistently cooked to perfection. 80% of the time, we get PAD SEE EW, YELLOW CURRY, and/or PAD RAMA, but we've also branched out and have tried their GOLDEN NOODLE, PAD KHEE MAO, PUMPKIN CURRY, GARLIC GREEN BEANS, PADH PRIKH KING, and PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE. All dishes we've tried are excellent, but their pad see ew is by far, the BEST pad see ew in the Seattle area. As people who like spice and some heat, we usually order 3 or 4 star spiciness, but 5 stars for the Rama since the peanut sauce tends to make the spice milder. Service is always wonderful. The waiter and waitress are always very friendly and attentive. The interior is clean and modern. We never have trouble getting a seat. We also enjoy listening to the Bossanova covers of pop songs that they play in the background. Overall: 6/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere

Came here for lunch on a weekday. Got the titular Malakor noodles. A very good curry noodle, a bit spicier than I expected though. Service was fine and liked the music.

Visited here on a Monday night for dinner. The place was slow when I first arrived. Greeted by a man who seemed like the owner of the place. I ordered their papaya salad with thai salty black shell crab. It tasted pretty authentic, however the amount of crab is too little. I only had like 3 tiny crab legs in the salad.. Pad woon sen noodle was good! It had that almost charred flavor that comes from the wok that you can usually get from most asian dishes. I got a heat level 3 so it was decent for me as well

Stopped here after a day of shopping at IKEA. It's just a couple blocks and convenient. We are so glad we did! Nice ambience with friendly staff. We ordered the crispy garlic chicken- delicious and generous portion and the chicken pad Thai- excellent! Thai iced tea was in a nice large glass We will come back!

Decided to try this Thai place because I always drive by near IKEA and 99 ranch market- it was pretty good! Nothing extraordinary I would say but solid pad Thai and pad see ew noodle dishes. The dining ambience is beautiful and clean, it's a good gathering spot to grab food with friends! Super big parking lot as well.

Food: authentically good; enough said from noodles to curry dishes Service: friendly Ambience: spacious and clean Advice: when eating authentic dishes, order your curry with different proteins (chicken, beef, seafood, etc) and ALWAYS order jasmine rice on the side. SHARE! Order the dishes and everybody in your party share the dishes with rice. Whether noodles or rice or salad, put them in middle of table and share as opposed to eat your individual dishes.

We love all the foods we ordered today, Panang curry, papaya salad, heavenly beef, crab fried rice and pad see-ew, all delicious! The service is super nice and friendly, clean restaurant and beautiful decor. A go to Thai spot in the area.
