Good for Wildwood - Edit
Tonight, KaTi hosted a fundraiser for Wildwood Farm Sanctuary. I ordered the Garlic & Pepper Stir Fry with soft tofu, steamed broccoli, and jasmine rice in garlic sauce. I appreciate being able to order it not spicy. There was more tofu than broccoli, so I would have preferred more balance. Otherwise, it was very good.

Best Thai in Portland - Edit
If you are tired of the over sweetened, bland Thai food come here. Complex flavors balanced beautifully. Wok hai for days.

Good but expensive - Edit
Had an appetiser (the only one below $ 10) and one of the house entrees. Both were good, although for my taste the entree was a bit out of balance: too much tofu (fried in some basil-layer, pretty good), too few veggies. It was marked as spicy, the menu says "spicy is spicy", and it actually is spicy, so if you're not used to it I suggest going for medium spicy.
Read moreThat said I do not feel like it deserves 5 stars: the music was so loud it was a struggle understanding the waitress; while I was still clearly eating I already was sort of coerced to pay; and the heat level of the food was regulated by simply adding dried chilli flakes instead of fresh chilis. For the rather high price (One cheap drink, appetizer, entree and tip will easily get you over $ 40) this could be improved.

Uncooked veggies - Edit
Tom Kha soup was good. spicy even tho I selected medium. Got drunken noodles and pineapple fried. Drunken noodles were supposed to be medium and had no spicy ness at all. I selected to have veggies instead of tofu. Kind of disappointing the unevenness of how the veggies were cooked some were cooked down well then I would bite into a raw mushroom or raw broccoli and just not what I was expecting for the price and the drunken noodles were all in solidified Chunks not like how they should be noodles.

Loved and hated it - Edit
Ordered Drunken Noodles with fried tofu and shelled out extra for veggies too. Super tasty but pretty expensive.
Read moreAlso got an order of the Tom Yum soup with veggies which was just legitimately bad. We ended up throwing it out as no one liked it.
Both dishes were supposed to be medium level spicy but seemed to be spicier. I have a pretty decent tolerance to spicy food (used to live in San Diego, lots of Mexican) so didn't mind, but others who are a bit more sensitive should be cautious when ordering.

The best Thai food - Edit
Seriously the best Thai food I’ve ever had. So flavorful and if you request spicy food they actually make it spicy. Found my new go-to.

PERFECTION - Edit
Everything we had was literally perfect! We had the vegan lettuce wraps as an appetizer, two coconut milk teas, a vegan tofu pad Thai, a vegan fried rice and a mango sticky rice (to take home). Everything was well seasoned, perfectly plated and pipping hot! It didn’t even need added soy sauce as the flavors burst on your taste buds with every bite. Everything tastes authentic and the staff was super nice! After a day of shopping and job hunting it was the perfect way to celebrate. HIGHLY would recommend this place even though I want to keep it to myself lol

Best Thai Food I've had in ages! - Edit
This place was fantastic!! It's a vegetarian Thai places, so you'll find way more great veg options than you would at a omni Thai place. The flavours were phenomenal, it was more delicious than I was expecting! Highly recommend Nam Kao Tod, and Boss Special. Pad Se Ew was great too! When we went (July 2021), we had to place our order over the phone (you can order online too), and they were open for outdoor dining.

Actually spicy - Edit
This was delicious. Ordered pad Thai and most of the time when I ask for something spicy, it’s just barely spicy. The spicy level is not for the faint of heart and was just right for me.

Tasty thai food - Edit
Tried the pineapple fried rice and the pad see ew – both were delicious! Especially enjoyed the pineapple fried rice and its sweet, savory, and spicy curry notes, you really can't go wrong ordering this dish. As a bonus, the serving size is quite generous! Enjoyed the pad see ew a lot as well, really appreciated the use of gai lan (Chinese broccoli) instead of regular broccoli. The quality food that the folks at KaTi are serving definitely reflects their uncompromising vision. 10/10 excited to try more of their menu.

Best tofu in PDX - Edit
There’s a reason this place is always packed with a line out the door. We’ve eaten here probably a dozen times and, between the two of us, have tried most of the items on the menu. We’ve never had a dish we didn’t like. Also worth noting is that Kati makes the best tofu I’ve ever had — and I don’t say that lightly, as a vegan since 2005 and a Portland resident, where we’re spoiled AF with vegan options.

Kati is f-ing amazing - Edit
Reviewing Kati makes me feel like I give 5 stars out way too readily because, now, I have no way of indicating just how much I love this place and how superior it is, to me, to most places.
Read moreI used to hype this place up to my former co-workers all the time and, one day, a few of us made plans to go for lunch on a Saturday. They loved it and, soon, more co-workers joined us. I was the only one who was vegan. Everyone else ate meat. They all loved it and going to Kati on Saturdays became a semi-regular occurrence. We never went anywhere else and they all lived in the Beaverton-Hillsboro area, making the trek through weekend traffic into town.
I no longer live in Portland and fear that I will never find Thai food this good again. This was my favorite spot in town, pretty much since the time it opened. So many great dishes. Pad ka prao is underrated. Never disappointed with anything I tried here and I have tried a lot of dishes. Give these people your money!
Pros: Pretty much anything can be made vegan

My favorite ❤️ - Edit
I love going to Kati. Their Tom Kha is my favorite go to. They have the best Papaya Salad I've had at in Thai restaurant in Oregon. My favorite appetizer is the Nam Kao Tod. Another favorite is the Suhko Noodle Bowl. If I'm really hungry but still in the mood for soup! Love this place. Flavors are amazing and every person I've brought here (4) have loved it too!

Great Thai fare! - Edit
Get here early, because it’s bound to be busy. The cocktails here are to die for and the food is something else. All of the curries around the table were delicious, and I loved my pad cha with fried tofu. The medium has quite a bit of kick, so just be aware.

My new favorite restaurant - Edit
Great food, great service. My spouse and I started with the Nom Kao Tod, followed by the Pad Thai and the Tom Yum Hang Noodle. We had the Vegan Thai Green Tea and an order of Mango Sticky Rice to go. Everything was delicious. Our server was very helpful and, while business was busy, this did not slow down service. We can’t wait to return.

Best Thai in town whether vegan or not! - Edit
Amazing place! Vegan fish sauce available, all veg and vegan if you make sure to avoid eggs (mai sai kai!). I recommend the Thai street fried rice, Tom yum, green papaya salad and everything I’ve had otherwise has really be great honestly. Be warned, spicy is hot here, medium is already considerably spicy!!
