Sila Thai

I really should stop by this food court more often! Tucked away in one of the corners of the St. Johns Food Carts is Sila Thai. Moon, owner and operator, is always friendly. I enjoy chatting and catching up with her. The food is always excellent and as good as anything I've had in a brick and mortar restaurant in Portland. Three of my favorite dishes are the Sweet Basil Stir Fry, Spicy Fried Rice and Yellow Curry, but pretty much everything served here is full of flavor! I typically have ordered here when it's not super busy, and the dishes have always been ready in ten minutes or less. Definitely stop by and give this food cart a try if you're in the area!

The pinnacle of Thai food. Everything I have had has been incredible. And cheap. Strongly recommend the Thai fried rice (Thai spicy if you can handle it), the salad rolls are $3.50 (EDIT: They are $5.00) and the size of small burritos, and the Thai ice tea is her own recipe and delicious. This has become my go to Thai place. Made complete by the quirky and kind personalities of the owners.

Nice place, friendly staff. There was a small issue with my orange chicken being a bit tough and the batter not sticking to the chicken, but not a big deal considering the speed of the service. UPDATE: Sila and/or Moon, I don't live in Portland. I was visiting St Johns at the time. Next time I'm there, I'd love to visit your cart again! Not sure how to contact you, so I'm updating this post to let you know I received your reply. :)

Came here for the first time tonight and WOW this place is delicious! I’m not sure if their Pad Thai is normally gluten free or not but it was the best gluten free Pad Thai I’ve ever had!! I’m SOO happy to have came here as we now have a reliably delicious neighborhood spot! We got the white peach curry as well and it was amazing!

Our go-to place for Thai food in St. Johns—the food is fresh, well prepared, and tasty! Although we can't walk to it anymore, we're glad that Sila Thai was able to relocate after the closure of their former food pod on Ivanhoe St. Their new location on Lombard is close to other pods and many libation options. I hope they'll be around for years to come!

I had catering from Sila thai for my sister's baby shower. Food was so good and plenty of food. So much was left over. They made more than enough for people. People lived the food. I recommend them any parties. I ordered chicken pad thai, chicken fried rice and chicken pumpkin stir fry. Definitely recommended.
