Buddha that kitchen Relaxed Thai restaurant serving curries, noodles & fried rice in a sleek space with wine & beer.
We stopped on the way through and this place was delicious and came out quickly! I had Drunken noodles and my bf had the yellow curry. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. Would highly recommend
Our family of six came based on a friend’s recommendation and we loved it! Service was friendly and we all ordered different dishes that tasted fresh and healthy. So glad we found this little gem and already came back for more of the fresh salad rolls with peanut sauce, yum!
One of the best options in the small town of Middletown and the only Thai restaurant in the vicinity. It serves a lovely niche and they’re open pretty late. Not too much seating but is quite understaffed. One server was servicing the entire 10 table dining room which meant quite a long time to place orders and refills for drinks.
Food quality was not the most authentic Thai cuisine but when factoring in the remote location of the area, it delivers great flavor and the spice/sanbal on the side really helps dishes pack a punch. Prices are reasonable and the Thai tea was quite good. Parking is plentiful although you may have to park outside of the main parking lot when it gets busy.
Wow! I was so happily surprised by my meal! Teriyaki Salmon lunch. This wild salmon steak was So fresh and thick and every bite was delicious. Absolutely delicious. The veggies were just right. The steamed rice was served in a heart shape, that touched me. The teriyaki sauce was perfect. They changed the radio station to prettier music and put a fashion show on the tv for me. The people there are very beautiful and the food was excellent.

Pumpkin curry is amazing
Wish the portions were bigger
Fresh rolls were delicious, and pumpkin curry for the win!
After so many years, this place still putranks most Asian restaurants in Sonoma County.

Got the garlic pepper prawns.
Nothing too amazing but they came through in a clutch, when I was needing seafood inland.
💕 love 💕
wow!! amazing food, amazing service! so happy to have :) we got the tofu pad thai, tofu cashew nut, iced tea, and thai iced tea, all sooo delicious!
The food was absolutely superb. It tasted delicious, was healthy — not too oily, and had very generous portions. I would make a trip up from Calistoga just for this.
Very glad we came across this unassuming spot and will definitely come back if we ever visit Napa/Calistoga again.
I've always had great food here.....they never disappoint.
Very good Thai food
Peaceful spot with friendly staff and amazing food!
So great! Some of the best Thai I’ve had. Great service and the food came out very quick

Great find in Middletown! Went out for my birthday lunch on Monday and treated a friend to lunch Saturday. Great food, very nice decor. Highly recommend!
Delishous food and fantastic service.
love this place- food is always good- and they do gluten free too just wish there was a spot on the online ordering to put gluten free-
Fabulous Thai food and a warm inviting atmosphere! A real asset to our community.
Amazing service and great food.
friendly, quick service and delicious food!
very mediocre thai food, thia food has bright flavors, the several dishes ordered were all bland.
Great restaurant in a small town!!
Had the clay pot prawns and the taste was so pleasant and a great experience. The owners are very friendly and atmosphere is very good.
Best Thai food outside of Bangkok!
Stopped by this restaurant on my way back to Napa from a high school basketball game at Middletown. What a great Thai restaurant! Had the salmon special. It was excellent!
Wonderul authentic Thai food cooked and served by a wonderful family and their crew. We started to come during Covid for takeout, now you can dine in and they have decorated the place nicely, very cozy. We always look forward to coming here when in the area. Alex is great and the rice is shaped as a heart!
The food was great. The service was very welcoming. Would go again.
Good food, fast friendly service, very nice place.
Always a savory experience. The avocado spring rolls rock!
Very nice place with very good food.
All previous customers of Buddha Thai, be aware that it recently came under new management. I've only ordered the raw spring rolls and the Tom Yum soup thus far, but they were nowhere near as good as the menu when Charley owned it and his wife cooked her recipes.
The food was good, the servings were a little small. They were very friendly. Over all it was an enjoyable experience. I will definitely return.
Very good food and drink
We sat down to eat and were pleasantly surprised at how nice and clean this place was. We were sat down and served quickly first our appetizers and Thai tea and then our meal came our quickly as well. The presentation was on point and the flavors were great. We will definitely be coming back here to try more plates!
We usually do take out which the food has always been consistently very good. This last time we dined in at lunch after it had been closed for a week or so. I was very disappointed in my dish. Chicken was very dry as was the pad Tai. My husband's shrimp dish was good.
Everything is good but the lamb curry is the dish to try!
As always, the food is very good.
Love Thai food yum yum ^ ^
We love Thai food ^ ^
They are just getting started again after COVID. But the food is as wonderful as ever.
Really good food.
The food is always good. I say that because that is not the standard here in Lake County unfortunately.
Amazing authentic Thai food. Some of the best since we have left Thailand. Small place, seating if you wish to eat in but really set up for Carry out. All the Rice noodle dishes and curry was AMAZING! Worth the stop!
One of the better and most popular restaurants in Middletown. It is still (March 2023) restricted to take out only due to Covid-19.
Great Thai Food, we are very fortunate to have them in Middletown. We love their green curry, spring rolls, and their chicken pad thai among other things.
Awesome
Great food, lovely personality
The best restaurant in Lake County. At least since Watercolors went out of business. Try the dry fried curry, the duck noodle soup, or the dancing mango stir fry.
Friendly staff, great pad se ew
We love Buddha Thai Kitchen and the family who runs this gem. Their cooking is authentic and committed to ingredients thanks to the ladies in the kitchen, and the friendly charismatic service makes ordering fun. We come whenever we are in town. We wish the family ongoing success and lots of delicious Thai meals for the community. We got the Tom Yum soup, Pad Ke Mow wide noodles, Duck salad, and Eggplant appetizer -- all were fresh and delicious! Also, he made my Thai iced tea proportions to perfection!
We stopped by for lunch my Nephew said this place was great, and he was right 100% the lunch menu has many options, and the food is the Bomb! Prices are really reasonable. The owner was very friendly, and told us of places where he buys his Vegetables from in Santa Rosa.
If your out near Middletown stop in, and enjoy a freshly cooked Thai Cooked meal.
Best food ever. Healthy and flavorful and served to you wuick and hot.
Always friendly and delicious.
This little place still struggles from past-pandemic effects and staff shortage, so take out only, but it was quick and tasty, so good job!
I LOVE their spring rolls 😍
Small little place with good food
Great food. Tastie and fresh.
Great food, amazing customer service and very quick! Try the cashew nut grill
I love this place always a go to for a snack or a full meal the hole family will appreciate. I always get a double order of sticky rice with their amazing peanut sauce . And the Thai style chow main!! The Thai tea is really good to. We have had alot off the menu and have not been disappointed by any of it.
Large portions of freshly prepared authentic Thai food! Absolutely delicious 😋 we brought ours up to Harbin Hot Springs with us
Delicious,delicious, delicious!!!
Friendly service and have never had a bad meal here. Love, love it!
The best thai food I've ever had. The skewers & pineapple fried rice is amazing. & their Thai tea is great too! I've been to many Thai restaurants in the bay area & this place is better!
There's usually a line to pickup orders at dinner time. Order early and avoid the line.
Good food
Owner is extremely rude to customers. The food is okay, but not for the bad attitude you have to deal with. The last time we ordered they gave our food to someone else.
We used to love this when me and my wife lived here few years back. We recently just moved back from the bay area and were happy to be eating here again. Despite the numerous thai spots in the east bay and san fransisco, none came even close to what buddha thai is doing.
Food and customer service are amazing
The food was terrible, it wasn’t hot at all, the chicken was cold. This place is terrible.
Mediocre Thai food, but good service.
Authentic Thai. Delicious.
Tings Salad is perfect!
Food was delicious, service on the other hand wasn't .
Always excellent and fresh!
Whenever I come through Middletown near dinner time I stop here. I have always been completely satisfied with the service quality and cost. Truly a wonderful place that I recommend confident that you will agree.

My food was overcooked. There was barely any Seafood in the claypot.I ordered and the server never even asked me if my food was good.
Great spot to eat friendly place delicious food
Good food!
Huge menu everything so delicious and fresh!
Can't remember when I've had better Thai food. Kinda lousy alcohol selection: one beer and three wines by the glass. Service was a bit slow, but it was very busy (understandably so).
Accommodating, friendly staff.
Great selection of Asian dishes. Friendly staff too!
Importantly, the food is authentic Thai with various elements of other Asian cuisines.
Would come back for sure if passing through Middletown.
Great food! Really tasty spring rolls!
Delicious. We've been doing a menu walk trying to find something they don't do well. I tend to go for Thai curries - which they do well - but have been hooked on their stir fry offerings since trying the cashew nut grill.
Great food and friendly staff.
Excellent Thai food! This would be a top notch place even if in a big city. For a small top it is just outstanding!!!
Great place! We had 10 & a 2 yr old and they handled us perfectly. Food is always great. Bay Area/Sonoma Valley quality. Best spring rolls. Their tofu is even amazing. You can get it as spicy as you want or not. Not cheap but not overpriced.
Best Thai in Southern Lake County
Good food!
Great food and outstanding service at reasonable prices. A hidden gem of a restaurant. Highly recommend it.
Best soups
Always great food and service!!
Pretty good Thai food, especially for Lake County!
Always great food
Excellent food and service. If don't prefer hot spices, be sure to ask not to have them in your dish.
Excellent thai food with delicious vegan options! Dont everybody rush there and eat the vegan food up!
Best Thai Ive tried in a while, everything was super!
Great food, make sure you try spring rolls!
Our favorite destination in Middletown for lunch....large portions, great variety to choose from!
The food is always wonderful! The service is excellent!
Fresh food. Great flavor. Kind,and welcoming staff.
Yumm
As always..the food was excellent
Great little place with good food resonably priced.
Best food imaginable
Really good Thai in s small town :) Seemed authentic to me but I'm just a Czech mutt what do I know... Food was delicious so that's all that matters. Not sure what I had but it was really tastey. Rangoons were a new special and they were great!
Good friendly place. Nice atmosphere with a lot of light.
Some of the best Thai food you’ll ever taste. Authentic, good quality ingredients, prepared fresh daily. Ample parking and the friendliest half you’ll ever meet. Always our choice for celebrations and daily lunch specials.
So fresh and great service. Highly recommend!
The Cashew Nut Grill and Pad Se Ew are both excellent dishes.
Fabulous
Excellent. Great food, service was friendly and prompt, prices were very fair and I felt like I got a good value for my money.
No Waitresses. You order expensive food which I hear is good. But you eat out of take out cartons???
Sweet family run restaurant. Good eats.
Chef Ting could open a restaurant in any big city and be a star. We are so lucky to have this genius in little Middletown. Order anything and be amazed, but don't miss the spring rolls.
Love everything about this place
woderful curry
An absolute delight of a dining experience. My girlfriend took me here for the first time a while ago and everything was SO delicious. My favorite is definitely the spring rolls, I dream of them in my sleep. My girlfriend also suggested a bunch of items I probably never would have ordered on my own and EVERYTHING was just SO GOOD. Every time I drive through Middletown my mouth waters.
Also! The mango sticky rice for dessert was AMAZING! Best I've ever had by far! The rice was a blend of brown and white and was plated so beautifully.
I definitely need to stop by here again soon and take some pictures! The plating was impeccable, as was their quality of ingredients. Hands down my favorite place around the lake!
Food was great, service quick, and all with great price
Always delicious. They have a large menu but manage it well. Everything is flavorful and fresh.
Love Buddha Thai. Really solid Thai food and good service. My faves are the duck curry, pra ram, and tom kha soup.
Awesome Food!!!
Rude and poor waiters
Yellow Curry Chicken. Yes!!
Perfect and tasty.
Great food and service
Delicious, every time...
the teriyaki chicken with rice was bomb
definitely get the thai iced tea with your meal
F-in great every time.
Very good Thai food. Moderate prices. In Middletown. Who wouldve thunk?
Amazing Thai cuisine and great friendly service.
Just ok...
I am used to some really fragrent, well seasoned, flavor in Thai food.😌 I am afraid I have been spoiled by the East Bay, and San Francisco. Having said that, I will rate it a 3. The atmosphere is beautiful, the waiters so very kind, and attentive! There is also a little store of hand-made items in the rear! They serve beer and wine.
Fabulous! A must!!
Food to die for and the service is great.
Fresh and delicious
Wonderful.Delicious. Sat right down. Nice serves. Food came quickly. Very clean. Definately 4 stars. Great assortment of items. Not all BLAXING hot like other THAI places☺
