Bai Tong Thai Restaurant

Bai Tong’s the best Thai place on the Eastside (further evidence: there’s also now a location in Seattle proper). They’re typically pretty packed, so If you can score a table at the Redmond spot on a weekday, they have special occasion vibes that makes the whole place feel more like a nightclub lounge, and really great takes on Thai classics like pad se ew and garlic green bean and shrimp stir fry.
