Thai bistro serving authentic Thai fare, including several original and award-winning signature recipes by Chef Paula Rungsawang.
- the service was provided very fast and the staff was welcoming
- ordered chicken red carry with white rice; it was delicious and the taste very Thai. The portion of the food too big; be aware when you order.
- like the place; very simple and reminds me of Thailand
Overall, very good experience and highly recommended
A very below average Thai restaurant, where server notes down one thing and the chef cooks something entirely different.
Noodles were super chewy and had bland flavor. Additionally we ordered the coconut rice upon the server recommendation which was just a tad of coconut milk and a load of sugar, which the server hyped it to us opposite.
After all this they have the audacity to add self gratuity of 18% which is mandatory only for party of 6 or above. When asked they said they didn’t realize we are only 4. Shameful.
I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go to this restaurant, maybe go to City Market and get frozen food.
After the Gondola ride and too much snow, it was time to eat some spicy Thai food and we found this perfect place in aspen which had vegan options for vegetarians like us. We ordered Tom yum soup, pad Thai drunken noodles and red parang curry. All the dishes were scrumptious and I wanted to have more of drunken noodles. The portion size was a little less for the price. Last we ordered a coconut ice cream which was good enough for 2-3 people. Overall a great place in the middle of aspen with great food and good server. Would visit again when in aspen.
Bangkok Thai Bistro is a truly beautiful place with amazing and delicious food. The unique and lovely ambiance adds to the overall experience. The vegetable Tom Yum soup was quite enjoyable, and the starters, including chicken satay, dumplings, and shrimp rice rolls with peanut sauces, were really good.
The basil fried rice received high praise, and both the green curry and Panang curry were delightful. The pineapple fried rice was decent, though not as exceptional as the other dishes.
The waiters were sweet and provided quick service. For Thai food enthusiasts, this place is a must-visit, especially given its stunning location. Don't miss out on trying the outdoor seating, which offers breathtaking views of the Aspen mountains and the beautiful street with its charming flower arrangements.
The noodles and special seafood plate was good
My husband and I love this place, a favorite restaurant amongst locals. The food is so good and the prices are very reasonable for Aspen. There aren’t many affordable places for dinner left in downtown.
The space inside is very small - there are only 4 tables. But the patio is really nice - surrounded by flowers next to the the Clark’s Market courtyard. There’s an option to order online for pickup. Not sure if they currently deliver. They let you order from the menu of the other Asian restaurants next door - you’ll have tons of options including many vegetarian and vegan ones. There’s a kids menu too - our kids love the sticky coconut and the wild rice.
Didn't bring my pho. Many items unavailable. 2 menu but only 1 given. Slow service. Basic curry and noodle dishes were good. Sushi not so much
This used to be one of my favorite places in Aspen but it has changed recently - just ate here and the curry was undercooked, fried rice was tasteless and also kind of undercooked although it was covered in oil. Upset stomach after. Would not recommend
Outdoor seating has a very nice atmosphere. It was a beautiful day. Our waitress was very sweet. The prices though, kind of not okay. Kids menu was $12.95 with no descrption with 2 items and no drink. Weird. I really wanted Pho, but it was $20 minimum and I could not justify that for the quality of food and fast service kind of vibe feel you get. So I got the chicken lunch special fried rice. Portion fine for lunch, but when the Drunken Noodle off the regular menu came out it was the same portion size. What?
The presentation was good. Food was dry for me. My hubby liked his. The Tom Kah was okay. I guess I have been spoiled by my local Thai place. We got our ticket and they included an 18% gratuity for themselves. I normally give 20%, but that is my choice to give that. Just taking it is a different story. I saw on the menu where they talked about taking 18% for groups of 6 or more, but we were 3 people. This place is a mess. Never coming back.

I don’t even know where to begin, but this was by far the worst Thai meal I’ve ever had. The food was tasteless, and everything seemed off. The pad thai was soggy, bland, and completely lacked the usual punch of flavors. It tasted more like a poorly microwaved dish rather than something freshly made. The green curry? Don’t even get me started. It was watery, with barely any spices, and the vegetables were overcooked to the point of mush. It felt like they had thrown random ingredients together without any care.
To make matters worse, the spring rolls were greasy and tasted like they'd been reheated multiple times. The dipping sauce was watery and flavorless. Even the tom yum soup, which is usually a safe bet, tasted like bland, over-salted broth with chewy, overcooked shrimp.
On top of all that, the service was extremely slow, and the staff seemed uninterested in the customers. It took forever just to get someone to refill our water. Overall, a massive disappointment—save your money and avoid this place at all costs!
We walked up and after about ten minutes of sitting there and watching what we assumed (and were right) the wait staff sit at the bar on their phones. Finally someone served us and they were completely out of every sushi item, we ordered some other dishes including the gyoza and it was most definitely frozen and just heated up, they were so so watery inside and had basically no flavor. There was water just sitting on the plate. They were also super cold in the middle so we sent them back. Overall food and service was so bad and I really regret spending my money and time here on our trip into Aspen. Definitely don’t recommend going here.
For $20-$30 I'd expect excellence/high quality tasty dishes. We ordered the Pad Thai and Pho as those were the most likely safe choices being a Thai restaurant and you can't really mess up Pho especially if you just use the pho packet for broth. Pad Thai was bland and the pho was bland and not even boiling hot. I'm from Denver, theres alot of great places for Pho and Pad Thai. I might be spoiled, but this place is a rough one to swallow. 1 star for effort and that's being generous. Don't even know what their specialty is as a Thai restaurant especially if you cant make pad thai. My wife and I make Pho and Pad Thai at home, we know the flavors we make the 8hr broth. Just feel taken especially bringing 12 family members with us. The outdoor scenery is nice with the birds flying around if that helps.

I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go to this restaurant, maybe go to City Market and get frozen food.
The food was really tasteless and just before you are thinking of the tip, they tip themselves by including 20% gratituty in the bill. So awful😓😓
I was there last weekend , I am big fan of Thai food , however , eating at this restaurant was a horrible experience for me and my friend .
We ordered sweet and sour and beside noodles.
The rice wasn’t cooked well , chicken wasn’t freshly cooked and reheated after long time.
The noodles were tasteless and hard to chew.
Waiters there didn’t pay much attention to take good care of us .
The only good thing they did was cancellation the noodles after I told them I didn’t like it at all and haven’t gotten a second bite of it.
This is a restaurant in a food court outside of Aspen village. The pad Thai I ordered was ok.
I like this place for take out, but have been disappointed in their quality of food. I ordered a yellow curry and it was basically broth and onions. Don’t recommend.
Each season I find a new dish to love. Highly recommend the Panang Jay curry, Thai laksa, and Drunken Noodle.
We love the food here. You can't go wrong. So much flavour and so fresh.
We had a great lunch near the John Denver garden. The food was great and so was the service.
I used to like this place the past few years, but the quality of the food has noticeable gone down this year. I had a tom kha soup that was OK, but the pad see eew was quite bad. The noodles seemed to come out of a box, didn't taste smoky, and the whole dish didn't feel like a Thai dish at all. I don't think I'll be coming back this year.
AVOIDE THIS PLACE VERY RUDE SERVER!!! THEY GIVE YOUR FOOD EVERY 15MINS
We order food for 5 people and they SERVE our food EVERY 15mins, they not even know which table is the food for, we asked why it takes so long she answer this pregnant lady because we are so busy with an attitude.. with her hands gesture like she don't like to asked question.. she never smiles. The tone of her voice is so rude. in the end, the tip is automatic, but there is still space for extra tips.. not worth it this place
The sweet and sour taste like sardines!!!
Bad service, server is very rude, my food takes 1 hr i will
Not recommend
Food wasn't good. Pad-thai wasn't cooked enough, it was very orangey flavored more like orange chicken. Fried rice was also very average.
Food is ok. Not bad, not great. Love the outdoor seating vibe. Nice view of trees. Close to thr grocery store. Service is slow paced, same for food readiness. But its nice if you just want to chill and be somewhere for a while. Place across from it gets busy, so you can people watch. Also this place has several vegan options
The food here is delicious, and the staff are very friendly! I highly recommend trying the Orange Chicken!
Worst Pad Thai I've eaten in my life. And the chicken was partially uncooked. The food is very overpriced for its quality.
Food was Amazing. Tried Chicken Satay, Pad Thai, Druken Fried Rice, vegan fried rice veggie and Sticky mango rice with coconut milk. All the items were amazing and 1 person can eat each bowl.
Really good pad thai! Food was on the table about 10 minutes after ordering.
Patio is really nice. Prices were surprisingly reasonable for Aspen
Tip: their medium is actually pretty spicy, don't make the same mistake my wife did lol
Nice atmosphere, outside seating was good, price is very reasonable for aspen.
First of all this Thai restaurant has great Thai food. but this is not a restaurant you can go with your whole family. We were unhappy and surprised to see the food Items of quantity. The advertising you see on google map for this restaurant, the size of the plates they are showing for these food items are totally falsified. The actual amount of food we got was so less amount on a smaller plate. The food price is expensive here. We as couple ordered Thai fried rice with shrimp which costed $22.00 and the Tom Yum soup was ok $9.00. we were ok with the cost but we are not ok with false picture advertisement showing to lure & attract people. This is a bad business ethics to service customers. In reality, they serve food items with smaller plate which is low in quantity. Our total cost came to $34 but with tax and gratuity tips fees including in the bill it came to $44.36. If you are ok with being ripped off then go ahead. We would not recommend this place at all.
Culinary disaster. Worst and the most racist people in Aspen. Period.
Worst possible food ever eaten. You pay for food that you didn’t even get on the table just because you ordered it. It’s not curry it’s a soup with rice. Do yourself a favor and not visit this place.
Never seen a place where the food is stale and if we are giving the food back asking them to change it to something else, we were asked to pay for the whole thing because we ordered it. As a customer nobody ever orders stale food . They just asked us to vacate the place and find a new restaurant. Most horrible customer service ever.
Worst Thai experience I’ve ever had.
Vegan food tasted like it had something else.
The food had a lot of oil and food coloring. The food tasted stale and when we spoke to the waiters, they said this is how it is and since we ordered we’ve to pay for it. Worst of all they advised us to find a different Thai restaurant.
When we asked them if we could send the food back and order something else, they asked us to pay for the ones we had previously ordered.
If you’re ever visiting Aspen, heed to the warnings and avoid this place. Grab some chips at gas instead.
Worst food
Worst customer service
Worst experience ever
Horrible customer service, very rude. Food tasted stale, almost toxic with food colours. You wouldn't want to spoil your trip with a visit here.
Worst thai food I've ever had. The food was very bad, tasted stale, smelled awful, and was LOADED with oil. Customer service was horrible, and even though we only ate one spoon of the food, they continued to charge us for the whole meal, additionally saying things like "fine you can go to another thai restaurant if you want". Would not recommend ANYONE to eat here
We ordered 5 vegan items and none of them were edible more than a spoon. The curry here is like a soup. Do not ever bother ordering here. This is the first ever place where we were asked to pay for the stale food ever in the US. The most horrible waiters ever.
Honestly eat at a Walmart or Whole Foods if you are in town in aspen . But do not visit this place.
Horrible customer service, extremely low quality food and rude waiters. Do yourself a favor by never stepping foot here.
About 99.9% noodles 0.1% meet. Seriously about 3 pieces of meet in my pad Thai. Can't believe I paid $16 for noodles... Gyosas were delicious though.
Pho was good and left full almost reminded me of the streets of Kowloon Pho !
Update.
We were going ro take out some food.
We got to the end of the order and noticed the "tip" added for the "take out" order.
We cancelled it and ordered elsewhere.
Why would you force your customers to pay tips for take-out orders?
Ridiculous.
Used to be good.
These past year and a half or so, the cook loves to use waaaaaaay too much white pepper in anything, specially anything pan fried dishes. To the point, too overwhelming to taste anything else.
Why so much white pepper?
After the Gondola ride and too much snow, it was time to eat some spicy Thai food and we found this perfect place in aspen which had vegan options for vegetarians like us. We ordered Tom yum soup, pad Thai drunken noodles and red parang curry. All the dishes were scrumptious and I wanted to have more of drunken noodles. The portion size was a little less for the price. Last we ordered a coconut ice cream which was good enough for 2-3 people. Overall a great place in the middle of aspen with great food and good server. Would visit again when in aspen.
Great food!
Worst pad Thai I’ve had. Super sweet and orange like a carrot
אוכל סביר יש לאן להשתפר
This place has delicious Thai food. We always offer take out from here when we visit Aspen. I highly recommend.
Small place.. don't forget they add 15% gratuity on takeout orders!
This gets 5 stars because it is in Aspen and you can get a substantial meal for around $20. I had the Vermicelli Noodle Bowl with Chicken. It was good. Frankly, it wasn't comparable to a Vermicelli Bowl I would get in Seattle or NYC, but compared to whatever other options we have in Aspen, it is a winner.
I ordered the edamame and Beef Pad See Ew. Great flavor and it came out fast!
My recent visit to Bangkok Happy Bowl Thai Bistro and Bar was nothing short of a culinary disaster. The food was far from authentic Thai cuisine and left a lot to be desired. The problems began with a friend vomiting after their meal and another suffering from stomach cramps. To make matters worse, a dish ordered as vegan had a strong fish smell, only to be replaced after a complaint. The quality of the food was abysmal, to say the least, and two of us couldn’t even bear to finish half of our dishes. It was a waste of money, and more importantly, it left us with upset stomachs and a deep sense of regret. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this place at all costs.
As per the places I have been through I guess this restaurant needs to work on their cooking, since Pad Thai was super sweet, Panang Curry was very diluted and pineapple fried rice were sticky. They have an amazing location and an opportunity to be come a great Thai restaurant in Aspen if they work on their cooking more. Moreover they need to work on the vegetarian options but I can’t tell more about non-vegetarian since I didn’t try any.
One of the only places we could find in Aspen with it's own dedicated vegan menu! Absolutely delicious! Food was fast and the server was friendly.
This place is Bad! Order the vegan Gyoza. order the BKK chowmein. Order the pad see Eww (pun intended). I triple dare you.
And the gratuity, oh boy! They know exactly how many people would tip them and that's why that choice is stolen from the customer. I wouldn't go back, I would recommend others to never go the first time.
Worst Thai I’ve ever had… really expected more out of Aspen. Flavorless curry, weird and absent table service. Don’t expect a water refill if you’ve ordered Thai Hot and don’t expect your tofu to be cooked. Gross.
Great food and fast service. Bathrooms are downstairs at Clark’s market
Very small but outdoor seating plentiful food was good and fresh but not my specific taste.
The food dint taste well. We ordered Vegan Noodles (which had excessive soya sauce) and Panang Curry which was just watery! Wouldn’t recommend this place at all.
The fried dumplings are AMAZING I am very picky about my dumplings and this place is in my top 3 which is saying something. The boba is great and so we’re the money bags but they were around 12 dollars for two. The avocado rolls were pretty good but not amazing. The spring rolls were really big but pretty good.
Food is fine. Taste and quantity is good.
Timeliness of the service is also good.
The staff was a bit overworked and rude.
Good vegetarian options.
They added gratuity even for 3 people at the table.
Every views are completely right about the gratuity. They were actually sneaky. They actually added the gratuity to each item so the item did not match the price on the menu. Of course I left zero tip.
The best in town 👍👍
Mediocre food, high price for mediocre food
Thai chef and Asian servers. Authentic in every way.
The prices were the most reasonable we found in aspen, but the food was very salty and service a little slow.
Loved the vegan drunken noodles and fried rice..
Bad experience with the food, no taste. We came for lunch, ordered thai fried rice, I left my food most of it because of poor taste. 18% gratuity is added by default to the bill. Avoid this place and find a better one.
Horrible food. Foul veggies used . There is a strange foul smell from food
Worst experience ever. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.
Yellow curry is worth ordering, avoid chicken satay.
Curry was ok, more like soup. Pad Thai has too much oil.
Crazy good noodles. Thai Laksa Bowl is my favorite.
The pho soup is 👍
Lots of vegetarian options! We went there twice and planing to go again. Loved their vegie sushi options!
An 18% gratuity was automatically added to the bill, and we were only a party for 3. There was no fine print on the menu warning us of this, and in any case, automatic gratuity for small groups is very unfriendly and not normal.
The food was actually pretty good tasting. Spiciness was very mild for Thai food, but still added a good touch.
Bangkok Thai Bistro is a truly beautiful place with amazing and delicious food. The unique and lovely ambiance adds to the overall experience. The vegetable Tom Yum soup was quite enjoyable, and the starters, including chicken satay, dumplings, and shrimp rice rolls with peanut sauces, were really good.
The basil fried rice received high praise, and both the green curry and Panang curry were delightful. The pineapple fried rice was decent, though not as exceptional as the other dishes.
The waiters were sweet and provided quick service. For Thai food enthusiasts, this place is a must-visit, especially given its stunning location. Don't miss out on trying the outdoor seating, which offers breathtaking views of the Aspen mountains and the beautiful street with its charming flower arrangements.
The noodles and special seafood plate was good
Food was below par. Felt like I was eating pre-made food that was sitting for a while.
The food is pretty good, the service is horrible. We ordered three soups and a dish to share. Eventually, they brought one soup, and they brought another, they brought us the shared dish, and nobody ever came back. Ever. Never brought the other soup. Never checked on us. Nothing. Probably better to use this restaurant for takeout. Expensive takeout.
Poor place for sitting arrangement even inside. A lot of pollen and dust all over the food and drinks. Very rude service too... I don't recommend this place...
Authentic Thai restaurant with limited seating space indoor and little plenty outdoor. We were a big group went on busy day except service food was really great as we placed multiple orders and none of them is disappointing.
Great spot for Thai Food.
Great food and excellent service!
We have tried 3 Thai restaurants during our trip in Colorado and this one is considered worst in our opinion. We ordered two Thaipads with noddle and one soup. The soup is OK, but both noodles tastes no flavor except for a bit spicy. They are obviously overpriced. Even worse, they charged us an ~15% service fee for "taking out", which was never told when we ordered our foods on the line/phone. We don't understand why a service fee is needed for "to-go" (what decent service has been done?); they just told me it's their (Aspen or the store) policy.
I can't understand how this place has more than 2 stars. We ordered two different entrees, two orders of potstickers, and mango sticky rice. The yellow curry was okay at best, but pretty watery and just spicy (medium) without much flavor. The tofu wasn't cooked either, just raw cubes of tofu with a few veggies mixed in. The other entree, broccoli tofu with brown "sauce", was awful. The broccoli and carrots were soggy and old, and the "sauce" was again just a watery brown liquid with absolutely zero flavor. We ended up pouring some of the yellow curry on top to make it interesting. The potstickers were awful, they tasted like freezer burn and we threw out 8 of the 10 uneaten potstickers. The mango sticky was mediocre at best, just half of an uncut mango (not yet ripe) on top of some sweet rice.
Heads up, they add 15% gratuity for all take out orders, which you don’t find out until you get there. I always tip even on take out, but forcefully adding gratuity without telling the customer beforehand feels deceptive and exploitative, probably won’t be coming back which is a bummer cause the food was good but that is just not a fair business practice.
The food was fine but was over spicy when i had asked for medium.
Pathetic restaurant and service, no sense of serving the guest at the restaurant. We were served food with orange which had fungus on it. When showed, we were asked to leave. One of the dish we order was never served, and when checked on the order status. He handed over the check. Without even apologizing for not having that dish.
Will never recommend anyone to visit this restaurant in Aspen.
One of the best papaya salads I've tried between the Denver Metro area and Western slope. I crave on occasion. Thai spicy please! Also very delicious wonton soup and more.
Definitely a skip. Orange chicken was absolutely disgusting. Bar selection is extremely limited without proper bartenders.
The Beef pho brought us back for a second visit during our short time in Colorado. Delicious, highly recommended
Tasty and authentic Thai foods with a separate vegan menu. Ordered the Tom Kha soup which was great, and the drunken noodles and basil rice dish which was tasty. Well priced for Aspen. A bit off the beaten path, a few blocks from downtown Aspen, located in a little strip mall type facility.
Great yellow curry w/ lamb.
No filter needed. I've been coming here for years now. Happy Bowl and Tiki Mana (same owner different menu) are both two of my valley favorites. The food is always delicious, it's reasonably priced, and the atmosphere is cozy. Both locations are small, but personally I like the quaint feel of it. If you have more than 2 people, call them first to make sure they can accommodate you. In the warmer months they have a decent outdoor patio. You honestly can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Hope you enjoy this local favorite like I have. ❤️
Food is good, portion is large. Service can be slow when busy. One of the few affordable eating places in Aspen.
Great food, wonderful service everytime, and good location with easy parking.
Foods good! The one in breck is better, the employees keep going in and out the door from tiki mana to Bangkok and you literally freeze because they keep going in and out the door and loosing all the heat.
Otherwise the foods good!
If i can give negative feedback i will.
Worst customer service ever.
Service was terrible, automatic gratuity in a 2 persons party.
Small but delightful spot! Bankok Happy Bowl is a hidden treasure in Aspen. The Pad Thai and the Drunken Noodles were delicious. The service was flawless and the servings are generous. There is a bar. I enjoyed my first tiny cup of hot sake in about 10 years. I'm looking forward to going back again.
Good thai option in Aspen. Generous portions that help fill up after a long day of hiking.
Great Thai restaurant tucked away off to the side. They have a full vegan menu to choose from. We started off with the veggie egg rolls, then got the Pad Thai and the Laksa Pak. Both dishes were great. Spice level was perfect. Only get Thai hot if you’ve experienced something like it before, otherwise you’ll be suffering severely.
Highly recommended if you’re craving authentic Thai food.
No brainer if you are an indian vegetarian. They have an entire vegan menu. The currries and stir frys hit the spot exactly for my palette.
My husband and I love this place, a favorite restaurant amongst locals. The food is so good and the prices are very reasonable for Aspen. There aren’t many affordable places for dinner left in downtown.
The space inside is very small - there are only 4 tables. But the patio is really nice - surrounded by flowers next to the the Clark’s Market courtyard. There’s an option to order online for pickup. Not sure if they currently deliver. They let you order from the menu of the other Asian restaurants next door - you’ll have tons of options including many vegetarian and vegan ones. There’s a kids menu too - our kids love the sticky coconut and the wild rice.
I haven’t found decent Pad See Ew (except on occasion at Phat Thai in Carbondale), but it’s actually really freaking good at Thai Bistro! I have had it for take out twice and I’ve been very satisfied with the flavoring, the sweetness without being too sweet and the way that the noodles are cooked, soft and chewy! Its also good reheated. The broccoli is a yummy touch and the Thai Iced Tea topped it off. I only wish they had sambal!! It’s so good on this dish and unfortunately all they have for hot sauce is siracha. I’ll be ordering out again when I’m craving Pad See Ew.
This place is the best. Fresh and balanced flavors, quality ingredients. We were shocked by the delicacy of the soup (tom kha) and we will never be able to eat regular old orange chicken ever again, this place wins.
Ordered shrimp pad Thai got chicken instead but was still charged for shrimp
Excellent! We visit a lot of Thai restaurants and this one ties with our favorite. We had pad thai, and tom kha soup. So good. And the prices were reasonable for the area.
"At least it's edible." - My sister's reaction to this food perfectly sums up how I feel about it. Tried this place per the recommendation of an Aspen local, but were disappointed by the quality of the food, especially for the price.
We ordered the panang curry and pad see ew for takeout. The pad see ew was almost inedible. The noodles were overcooked, there was almost no sauce, and the chicken was dry. The curry was better, but it was too spicy (despite requesting a medium spice level), and the flavor wasn't as rich as other panang curries we've tried.
The bill for these two entrees came to a $47 after they added in the obligatory takeout tip. Out of everywhere we ate in Aspen during our trip, this meal was the biggest disappointment (and the most expensive).
We love the Breck version of this restaurant but the food is good in both places and quick. The only difference is the seating, Brecks place has a massive restaurant and this place is mostly to go and only a couple of tables inside. We still love their food
Service is excellent. Food is delicious and a nice laid back atmosphere. Loved the outdoor seating. A lovely dinner experience.
Right off the bat, one of the best things about this place is that they actually let you order from both of these two Thai/Asian restaurants that are right next to each other, so there are plenty of good options to choose from! I can't remember the name of the dish I got, but it was one of the noodle dishes with a spicy broth and different kinds of pork meat. The whole thing was super delicious and although it was a lot I completely finished it! Staff was nice and friendly. Also the prices are much more reasonable than most other places in Aspen. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for fairly priced and delicious Asian food in Aspen!
This place is filled with Dust webs. They fly all around and don't even spare your food. Not a good place to have food if you are serious about your health.
Terrible service, Ok food and added extra gratuity on top of what they received.
Great food and neat atmosphere. Seems like a local favorite for Thai food. Staff was friendly and helpful.
The food is usually alright, but the last time I ordered a pick up order, it definitely seemed like the quality had dropped. Plus automatically adding a 15% gratuity on a pickup order is a bit ridiculous. I should also mention that I hadn't ordered from them in well over a year since the last time I ordered for delivery (when they were still delivering), I found a small black bug in my pad thai. When I called to tell them about it they didn't seem very surprised. The photo is to show that they do in fact add gratuity.
Amazing local spot!
Unfortunately terrible. I had called in to make a pick-up order which was confirmed by the restaurant. When I picked up the meal my order had tofu, instead of beef.. I tried to correct the error and Suttida said, “I’m not stupid” and hung up on me. After looking at the receipt they also posted a 15% auto gratuity, unknowing until the incident where I had already tipped 20%. I’m born and raised in Aspen and will NEVER recommend this establishment.
Nice, small Thai restaurant slightly off the main touristy part of Aspen. Good sized portions of very good Thai.
Initially thought this is just a random Thai restaurant in Aspen, but ended up to be one of the most delicious Thai food I’ve eaten. Coming from Seattle and lived in Aspen for couple of days, I went here twice and both time the food was great.
Though the seating was limited, the food was absolutely delicious 😋
Amazing Steaming-Hot Pad Thai and Kind Service!! I’ll be back!
Tasty food. There was some glitches in ordering on the web and it might be easier to just call them. Food was good and we got things sorted out when I picked it up.
Lovely noodles
Great food. Can't really go wrong here. The nice part is that it is one of the more affordable compared to the average restaurant in Aspen. It is also great for large groups of people.
Drunken noodles was really tasty. Lots of vegetarian/vegan options too!
Tiny place stuck in a shopping center but surprisingly good food. Insider tip: dine in portions slightly larger than takeaway
Always a great place to stop in, a locals hideout that is away from the tourist mecca so easy parking close by. Huge menu plus a great vegetarian selection that I favour.
Great Thai food.
Horrible service. They hung up on us... Customer service doesn't seem to be priority in this town
Food was severely lacking in flavor. Even my wife's dish was bland as can be. The inside was dirty as well. Im talking dirty tables, & noticeable dust webs. I would give 0 stars if i could because we came in at Opening time so food should have been on point & place should have been spotless.
The food here was lacking flavor and upon arrival they served my father a lipstick stained water cup. They also messed up our order a few times. My family and I ordered a variety of noodle dishes as well as the coconut soup and we agreed that all were lacking flavor and spice.
Curry puff was the only good thing out of the 3 things we ordered and you only get 2.
This tiny hole in the wall serves delicious Thai food—there even an entire menu for vegans to choose from. Just a word of warning, even with a party of three, they automatically add the 20% gratuity to the bill.
Good cozy authentic Thai restaurant with limited seating but delicious food. They have plenty of vegan options to cater people with dietary restrictions. Highly recommend the Thai iced tea here. After a long tiring hike in Aspen and Maroon Bells, this is the place you want to be at.
Best panang curry!!!!
Good thai food in cramped location.
The service is very bad. We were in a group of 8 made to sit separately on two tables but still charged large group (6+) gratuity. Half of the food came early but by the time the remaining food came the first half had finished eating. No one came to greet or seat us for 10 minutes.
Nice to have Thai food for a variation. I am okay w the taste.
Servers here are so friendly and accommodating. The owner is running the Thai bistro and the Hawaii restaurant next door so you can order from both restaurants while sitting at anyone one of the restaurants. Really good food.
Amazing food but expensive, maybe it's Aspen price.
This is my go to place for something comforting and yummy when i want to stay in after an active day. It’s convenient, good hours , service and the food is delicious.
Delicious Thai food at one of the most affordable prices you’ll find in Aspen!
Ordered ck panang curry, ck pad kapow, shrimp tom yum, gyoza, coconut rice and a few side orders of steam rice because the wild rice that comes with the order did not sound good which we ended up having one order and yes we were right about it not being good. Only two things out of our order were tasty which included the panang curry and tom yum. Everything else I would not recommend.
Got delivery of drunken noodles w chicken and green curry w tofu. Both excellent!
We ordered on 11/24/20 Golden Triangle appetizer, the Larb Gai and Orange Chicken. Everything was amazing and staff was friendly. We are just visiting for the week, but if I lived here I would eat here very frequently!!!!
The service was disgusting . Food was not good. Would not recommend.
