I have had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant several times, and it has never failed to impress. The staff, food, and environment are consistently superior, ensuring my continued loyalty.

Diner Review №2

This is my favorite local Thai restaurant (and I've tried a lot)! And let's just say I'm on a first name basis with the wonderful employees! The masaman curry (spicy level 4/5) is my all time favorite and I get it on a weekly basis. 10/10 recommend.

Diner Review №3

Great experience of different foods. Great service and even better food. Great explanation of food choices from the server before we ordered.

Diner Review №4

This place is garbage and will never order here ever again!! They had messed up 2 of our doordash orders and they had the nerve to tell us that we needed to drive all the way over there, return the food, to prove to them that they messed up, then wait for them to correct their mistake. There was a reason we did doordash because we have less than 1 hour for lunch break!! As healthcare workers we don't have the luxury to have lunch all day!

Diner Review №5

As i seldom go out and sit anywhere to eat,i would like people to understand that the staff was very knowledgeable as to the food and friendly. It came to the table ready to eat. That's not only amazing but really unheard of.Yes Mark you were right

Taste of Bangkok is easily my favorite Thai restaurant to go to! They have so many amazing dishes it’s difficult to pick a favorite, however the pho is to die for! Wether your looking for a good sushi/thai spot or looking to try out a new cuisine, this place is always a top of the list recommendation. The servers are also extremely friendly and always very personable!

Diner Review №11

Best Pho around. Absolutely phenomenal. Been to Thailand and this is by far the best pho in the area. Excellent Thai options to go along with the pho as well. My favorite Akron Asian food spot by far! Keep up the great food and work!

Diner Review №20

Diner Review №21

A lovely shop, quiet shop, with top quality food and excellent service. Pho is phenomonal, as is the pad thai.

Diner Review №27

Diner Review №28

good thai food. i got their curry dishes and it was pretty great! recommend for anyone craving thai :)

Diner Review №29

Don't be deceived by the location or the parking place. The inside is better than the outside. This place is good. Most of the items I've ordered are very good. I've been here several times. I thought the crying tiger was too sweet. The Laos papaya was pungent and delicious. I wasn't impressed witķh the duck basil. The duck was way overcooked. My friend enjoyed the curries. The Pad Tai had tamarind, which gave it a bit of a sour note. I don't like the current server. She is a bit too pushy, a little too excited. I appreciate a calmer person.

Diner Review №30

The best Pho ever! Been to other places for pho in & out of Ohio, but they just don't compare.

Diner Review №31

Haven’t been here in years! I came here often when I lived in Akron. Still great food! Lots of updates! Server was friendly and helpful!

Diner Review №32

Great service excellent food affordable prices

Diner Review №33

Outstanding meal and service. First, Melissa was such a gracious waitress! She attended to everyone of her tables so kindly and quickly. Her recommendations were well selected. We had the beef pho. This was excellent and flavorful broth with fresh vegetables to add. Also had the Pad see ew. The pad see ew we added beef as the protein recommended by Melissa and she is right! So so good! Took a Tom yum to go and that is also fantastic. They do a nice job of advising the spice level and sticking to it. I am so impressed. The best Thai and Pho in the Akron area for sure! Also cute and clean inside! Lastly they have a nice kids menu too!

Our go to for take out. We usually order once a week. So much flavor, and great options for vegetarians!

Diner Review №37

Always ordering from here it’s my favorite! Only place I’ve found with crab meat fried rice which I often get. But the drunken noodles, pineapple fried rice and bubble tea are also amazing!

Diner Review №38

Portions could be a bit larger but food tastes amazing and service is great!

Ordered last minute take out from here, and as expected the red curry was superb. Friendly, fun, and efficient staff. Highly recommend.

Diner Review №47

Always good service, food and clean

Diner Review №48

Diner Review №49

Food is basically run of the mill Chinese food. Taste was ok portion couldn’t fill up a child server wasn’t good both of them. Kid was rude lady was behaving like she’s maybe using something or drinking. All and all not worth $15 a plate.

Diner Review №50

Deceitful! Deceitful!! Why would you clearly list crab meat fried rice charge regular price but use ARTIFICIAL MEAT?? Why not disclose artificial/ imitation meat on the menu? You should be shut down for deceiving clients. The Tom Yum soup large size has exactly 4 small mushroom halves and 4 shrimps. I could not believe this because the ratings were 4+ but I now believe your workers/staff must have completed the false ratings. U can still do honest business without deceiving people. I threw 2 plates of crab fried rice in the trash. I even called to speak to the manager and got the run around. Very disappointed!!!

Diner Review №51

Best Pho around. The plaza it is in looks sketchy, but don't let that put you off. The food is amazing and the atmosphere inside is lovely.

Diner Review №52

IMO this is the Best Thai food in Akron.

Diner Review №53

Diner Review №63

One of the few Asian restaurants in the Akron area that can serve authentic Asian food. The food tastes amazing and the service is so welcoming. You have to order their Thai tea as well. My fifth time dining here. Love this place and I always recommend it.

Diner Review №64

This is our favorite Thai food in Akron! We live the Panang Curry, Ginger Chicken, fried rice and more!

Taste of Bangkok is the best Thai food you are going to find in Akron Ohio. The people there are super nice, take your order within minutes of you getting seated. The service is exceptional, the food tastes amazing and there is not a single item on the menu that is not worth trying. They even give out candy at the end when you are cashing out. It is amazing.

Diner Review №72

Excellent food. I go with #3 heat. Very tasty.

Diner Review №73

Pad Thai was great.

Diner Review №74

Diner Review №75

We enjoyed an absolutely delicious meal here tonight and are very glad we found this gem of a restaurant. The service was excellent. Our waitress was so kind and engaging. The food was fresh and perfectly made. Beef larb is a dish I never knew I needed in my life. My daughter can't wait to return for more massaman curry. The appetizers and tea were also superb.

Diner Review №76

This was the spot in my college engineering days. Came back after almost 4 years and it was still the same. Don’t be mistaken for the location and shabby exterior. The pho broth is amazing and they have wonderful Thai curries here.

Diner Review №77

Says dine in but it was carry out only so we left

Diner Review №80

As someone with celiacs disease I can testify to having a quality and reassuring interaction with the staff and food. Easily spoke with the manager who was knowledgeable and more than willing to ask the kitchen questions. Hats off to the kitchen, staff and managers for doing their best and lifting a weight from my shoulders when I want to enjoy a meal out.

Diner Review №81

Great food, clean restaurant. A little disappointed they didn't have sushi,but the other food definitely makes up for it. I've gone here several times. This was my first dine in experience, and each time, I try a different dish. Never disappointed. I gave service a 4 as the waitress seemed a little busy working all the tables tried getting her attention at times and failed. They were very nice and polite for the most part. If u haven't tried this place you should.

Diner Review №82

Nice little place with lots of vegan options!

Enjoyed a lovely dinner experience at Taste of Bangkok! The food was delicious and the atmosphere comfortable and inviting. Appreciated the exceptional hospitality and attention we received from our delightful server.

Diner Review №87

This food was a hit with our visiting Thai family. The staff was incredibly kind and so grateful. Although we did take our large order to go, the inside of this establishment was clean and very inviting. We will definitely be returning.

Diner Review №88

Thus was my first visit and will be back! The Basil Snapper was delightful 😊

Diner Review №89

I went there with my boyfriend I had their Singapore noodles with tofu my boyfriend gets lo mein his tastes better so I asked if I could get his instead because I only had two bites out of mine and still charged us for the Singapore noodles on top of the additional lo mein and said because we are a small business we will have to charge you for all three don't come here I am. A server if something tastes that bad then I would have taken it off the bill if that much food was still left over go literally anywhere else and get better service/ better portion sizes for prices

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

Food, service, AND atmosphere are 5 stars for me! Very personable and accommodating waiters, made the great food taste even better. Cozy atmosphere to sit and catch up with friends over a meal. A personal favorite is the thai tea! Definitely would recommend to anybody

Diner Review №92

Great experience and delicious food!

Diner Review №93

Loves THIS place where you would likely miss if you weren't looking, has FRESH Great AMAZING dishes & I'd always been pleased with my portions until my last visit. It prompted a call. I'm GNEW to the place but it was a distinct difference enough to want to find out what happened but the owner is always so kind offered to correct it. This is one of the many gems in crAkron. I rate this higher than PF CHANG & WASABI

Diner Review №94

They have the best drunken noodles. I compare all other Thai dishes to this one. Bubble tea is sometimes a bit intermittent, but mostly good. Staff is nice. Area is a little rough, but our favorite place to go. You'll be fine unless you're an opinionated snowflake.

To all the people who gave low marks that took the time to review this between dollar general, pizza hut, and Walmart. Your negative opinion of the world isn't helpful. One of you has given 1 ⭐ on every one of your reviews. Every place you've gone you give low ratings to. Every place is terrible. How is your home cooked food rated?

Diner Review №95

The service is wonderful, the seasoning and spice of the soup and meal were perfect! I had the Tom yum and red curry! Highly recommend!

Diner Review №96

Food was amazing staff was awesome and friendly! Even gave great recommendations.

I had pick up order, Thai basil vegetable rice along with Panang curry. My order got ready on 10 mins. When I step inside the restaurant I was greeted by the very friendly young lady.

Diner Review №176

Service was excellent. Our server had a busy lunch hour and was attentive to everyone. I got #13, the pho and it was delicious. They will give you plenty of vegetables and flavors to add on (Thai basil, sprout, lime, etc). Definitely will come back!

Diner Review №177

Diner Review №178

By far one of the best places to eat at in Akron. I've been eating here since they opened, I have been here over 1,100 times, I went 104 times last year and had Pho 104 times. I would eat here everyday of the week if I could! The Pho is the best in the state! The Thai Dumplings are amazing as well as the other appetizers. Thai steak, pineapple fried rice, Rad na with it's fat noodles, Royal fried fish... Go in and give them a try, you won't be disappointed.
