Came here for lunch and everything was on point. Had spring rolls, calamari, papaya salad, ruby curry, pineapple fried rice and mango sticky rice. Me and my hubby both agreed food tastes same as what we had in Thailand. It is a bit out of our way and pricing is higher but you get what you pay for. Definitely our favorite Thai restaurant.

Esan Zap offers an incredible Seafood Tom Yum that delivers a delightful burst of flavor with just the right spice level, making it a true favorite. The cozy and quiet ambiance creates the perfect setting for a relaxed dining experience. The staff are friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the meal. I highly recommend Esan Zap for anyone seeking authentic Thai flavors in a peaceful environment.

This is the best Thai food I've had in the area! All the dishes had super fresh, perfectly cooked veggies and came out steaming hot. The atmosphere is lovely and the service was excellent. I will absolutely be coming back to sample other menu items -- our group had the egg rolls, ruby curry, sweet and sour, and chicken fried rice. I'll still try other places I find, but this one will be hard to beat!

This spot is worth every penny! I’ve been ordering from this Thai restaurant for about a year now. I can’t express how delicious this spot is and how consistent they are. I’ve never been disappointed with their food or service. I’ve been slowly trying new items on the menu and haven’t found anything I’m disappointed in, everything is quite delicious. Nothing to complain about other than a few times where I’ve waited a little longer than usual for takeout.

Food is delicious service could be a little bit better. My favorite Thai spot in Lacey/olympia area.

We had the pleasure of indulging in some taste bud tingling Tom yum soup for lunch. It was sour and spicy (2 stars for the spice level) and sinus clearing. So, it met all our requirements. The dumplings reminded me of shu mai, and had I think water chestnuts or something that added a slight crunch. I also loved how they decorated the place. Definitely recommend this Thai restaurant.

Very nice and quaint Thai restaurant where food is delicious and the decor feels like you are in Thailand. The service is very fast even though it's just a family place without too many staff. There is extensive choices on the menu, you can be sure to find something you like. Everything looks good but we really liked the Peanut Pleasure and Sweet&Sour stir fry.

Nice friendly woman in the front of the house. Clean establishment. The food was not only beautifully presented but had the flavors that you would expect for Thai food. And you get a lot of food for you dollar. The spring rolls are visually appealing but harder to eat being cut into four pieces. The sauces are very flavorful and you just want to keep eating. Then you notice you are to full and should have stopped 5 minutes ago. A must go try place. Put it on your list.
