Seng Tong Thai Cuisine

Stopped in Ellensburg on my way west. Googled restaurants on map and this was highly rated, and I didn't want chain food. There was only one car parked out at around 5:30-6:00 pm out front, and as you can see, not busy. Friendly wait staff. There were many take out orders picked up while I visited. I'm ordered their popular garlic chicken. Since I cannot eat peppers, they gladly substituted broccoli. The entree came without a scoop of jasmine rice, which was the perfect amount for me. Great, complex umami flavor that I love in Thai food. Perfectly coated crispy chicken, very freshly made. Great food takes time to make properly, and this did not disappoint. There was an order ahead of mine, and they had more food to make for 2 people. I noticed the 4 spring rolls were nice and plump. Do not drop in if you are in a hurry. As others have suggested, call ahead to order your meal.

My new favorite restaurant in town! The Phad Thai was great! The crab delights were great, and the customer service was even better! If you like Thai food, then I highly recommend giving them a try!

Absolutely the best Thai food I've had in many years. I've eaten Thai food all over the world and this is outstanding. I'll be dining here again as often as I get the chance.

Small item of feedback for the owners.
In my experience of many Thai restaurants it's unusual not to automatically receive rice with a Thai meal. I'm fine that you price your (excellent) rice separately, but please please please have your register staff always explicitly ask the customer if they want rice with their order. Last two times I forgot to ask and was disappointed when I got home and there wasn't any rice with the entree. Not a huge issue, but having the staff always ask if I wanted rice would have made things perfect.
Other than that, keep on cooking!!!

My parents and I visited here today around 12:30. You order at counter so hurried to order a couple appetizers to begin before deciding on the meal because have heard from others in town can take up to an hour for the meal to get to you. The appetizers were delicious, chicken satay and calamari. The only odd thing while sitting down we didn't get any plates to put them on so had to use napkins. The entrees we went with were crispy garlic chicken, sweet and sour pork, a curry( its near bottom of menu, starts with an s) cashew delight with mixed seafood and garlic delight chicken. Ordered way too much, the waitress said one entree could serve 1 person, one could definitely serve 2. The curry was amazing, I got a spice level 2, perfect heat for me, a little too spicy for dad. The crispy garlic chicken was yummy too. Sweet and sour pork was not that appetizing, pork very tough and chewy. The seafood mix has some delicious mussels, scallops and shrimp. One more note Thai beer is on menu but since they don't have an alcoholic license yet are not serving it. Asked for ice water, they only sell bottled water. When you are waiting awhile for a meal would be nice to have better refreshments. Hopefully they will fix these little things in the future. Other than that was a nice first time trying out a rather new Thai place in Ellensburg.
