Yelp.com Review - by Michael L.

5.0 of 5 stars. Bar none. The Friendliest and Roomiest TyP of all the locations. Wait staff is sooperb! If you feel you are waiting too long for (anything) don't be afraid to just pipe up with a "hey, please.."...

Yelp.com Review - by Irene C.

4.0 of 5 stars. For a chain Thai restaurant, I had preconceived notions about this place. We've all been there before, any chain restaurant that uses doodoo ingrediants and lots of lack-luster flavors to cut the...

Yelp.com Review - by Anita K.

4.0 of 5 stars. I have to admit, I was skeptical because Typhoon is a chain, but I was impressed. Great food. And they had amazing beer on tap!

Great Place for a 1st Date or 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th...

Typhoon probably holds the trendiest ambiance in Gresham! It has an urban-asian feel w/ bold colors, artifacts & art, perfect lighting (including candles), and comfy booths. They serve flavorful food in...

Sorry Customer Service

I rarely get riled up enough to rant about a restaurant, but Typhoon pushed me over the edge tonight. I called in a to-go order (bags of gold appetizer and 1 order of yellow curry chicken.) I arrived to pick...

Great food, bad for takeout

Great food - not great for takeout. Like the other reviewers, we agreed that the portions were not very generous. In addition, we didn't realize that they didn't include rice until we got home. When we called...

Yummy Thai Food in Gresham

We've eaten at the Gresham & downtown Portland Typhoon locations several times over several years and have never been disappointed. We always share a few starters and a noodle dish as well as pad thai. Their...

Yelp.com Review - by Betsy B.

4.0 of 5 stars. I think the cooking here is a little inconsistent but overall we've never had a bad meal and we've had several great meals. My personal favorite right now is the pineapple curry. Something about...

Yelp.com Review - by makila c.

5.0 of 5 stars. This is the best Typhoon location if you don't want to wait for a table. It's never busy on weeknights and you can usually get in right away on a weekend night. This location is also more spacious...

Way overpriced. Mediocre food.

Opened the meal with the "Nibbler Platter" to sample the appetizers without breaking the bank. This consisted of two greasy and bland chicken satay skewers next to two lemon grass pork skewers that were...

Yelp.com Review - by J.K. P.

4.0 of 5 stars. Tried this place out and have come to really like this place. We go here quite often. One of the reasons is because of the vegan menu. I enjoy the vegan foods, but I still like the Pad Thai. I...

fast service at a Thai restaurant??

I absolutely love Thai food, however, I usually find myself inside those little hole in the wall joints where I stick with my familiar Pad Thai...I was a little hesitant to try Typhoon (as it IS a chain...

awful food

We didn't eat inside the restaurant. We ordered pick-up to go yesterday. One of food that we ordered was vegetarian Pad Kee Mao. My husband was told by the phone, they don't use MSG nor cooking soy bean oil...

The Good Manager's Back!

I LOVE Thai food, and we used to be pretty much regulars at the Typhoon in Gresham. But I haven't been back for a while, ever since they relocated the EXCELLENT young Asian manager they used to have there....

Better than I deserve

After 2 years of driving by Typhoon I decided to try them even though I have been a real fan of Thai Orchid. The decor is nice, upscale yet comfortable. The service was better than I expected. Not only was my...

Another bad dining experience in Gresham

What is it about Gresham? This little 'burb seems to get short-changed on everything. My last (and only) dining experience at the Typhoon!Gresham is a perfect example. I have long been a fan of Typhoon! on...

Well above average lunch spot

Just came across Typhoon at the Gresham Station. I actually had been told they had a nice buffet but when I was there, none was offered. They did have a nice lunch menu that including salad, soup, rice and...

No more buffet

They have discontinued their buffet. Too bad because it was an excellent value and usually offered a broad sample of different tastses and textures. The new lunch menu is nothing special & too expensive. With...

Tasty, fast

We experienced excellent service--fast and attentive. I had a question about the ingredients of one menu item, and the waiter was able to answer it completely. The drunken noodles were very tasty, but a few...

Wonderful but not so full.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience at Typhoon! however the prices were surprisingly high for the amount of food and the environment. For me it was more of a wonderful yet casual dining experience but...

Not the best by Stephanie B. at InsiderPages

We love Thai food - and we're pretty particular about it... we took some friends to this place and we were disappointed. One person in our party ordered a dish that was extremely HOT - but the waiter never...

Great Thai food in Gresham

The spicy peppercorn sirloin (w/ red curry paste, kaffir lime leaf, hot peppers, and peppercorns) is a standout must have dish - but be forewarned: it'll open your sinuses. The extensive tea menu is a sight to...
