I barely write a review on google but here I am, I've always dining in here for almost 2 years already, and the foods are amazing and authentic from Thai's perspective. But I decided to stop dining in for few months just because one server, today Monday 02/10/2025 , I thought they change the server already so I tried again but still got a terrible experience from this girl, every time I came seemed like she always has some attitude greeting/talking/serving, never smiled, and didn't look like she wants to work. I never had this kind of experiences with other servers here before, they were so nice. But this has got into my nerve. And would like to inform to the restaurant kindly. Thank you!

Our favorite Thai spot around. The food is consistently great, and the service is very quick.
Menu is easy to know what's gluten-free.

Diner Review №12

The food was great just small portion. I think it's just not the same do to inflation.

Diner Review №13

I don't know about the food, service or atmosphere of this place. I was very interested to try the food here until the incident that happened to my niece about a week ago. After this I will never come here and I want people to know what kind of people work/own this place.
November 26th I received a call from my niece. Her car had overheated and broke down. She pulled into Bangkok Thai because it was the closest place for her to get the car off of the main road. It was dark, and she had her 2 year old daughter with her.
She asked if I could pick them up and give them a ride home.
I told her to make sure she let the business know that her car broke down and asked if she could park the car in their parking lot overnight and she would be back first thing in the morning to get the car. The person she spoke to told her that would be fine.
My niece showed up at 9am in the morning to get her car and the car was gone! The lady who owns the place had it towed. They did not try to call, or get ahold of my niece to let her know they were going to have it towed, nothing.
I understand people don't want broken down cars in their place of business, but if that had been a problem why not tell her no you can't keep your car here overnight and we could have worked on getting it out of their parking lot, and done something different. We thought it was safe until the morning.
We are talking about a single mother who is having a hard time making ends meet have the only transportation she has taken from them.
Needless to say. The tow bill was somewhere around $450 of which She does not have.
I just feel like this was a ridiculous situation that could have been avoided by them just saying no, or giving her a giving her the courtesy of knowing that they were going to tow her vehicle.

Very flavorful. The fresh rolls are probably the most generous amount in town. A level three is spicy! Very good flavor. Will eat here again. Good quality.

Diner Review №17

Really nice staff and great food. Their Thai Tea is my favorite in town! My partner loves the Pad See Ew. Great little spot :)

Diner Review №18

This is a real Thai place. The food is great and authentic. When you ask for spice you get it. Will definitely visit again when in the area.

Diner Review №19

I was craving thai food and I'm asian. I ordered to go and got home the eggs rolls was not appetizing, the worst phad thai I ever had and the fried rice had too many onions. Food was not great like it used to be.

Diner Review №20

I'll drive the extra miles to eat this delicious Thai! The menu has traditional as well as items I've never seen@ Thai restaurants. Goal to try everything once.

Diner Review №21

great food, perfect portion sizes for lunch and for a great price!

Diner Review №22

The outside a little rough around the edges but it’s like finding a diamond in the rough. The people were kind and fast, the inside of the place looked serene and the food was absolutely delicious, 5/5 stars is a well deserved rating

Diner Review №23

The outer appearance may leave little to be desired but inside is clean and quaint. Amazing service, fantastic food. Must try their street food section and varied teas!

Diner Review №24

Diner Review №25

Place was great the first couple times. But this will be my last time ordering from them. First there was a black thing that was in my Thai tea. They claimed it was a tea leaf… but I’d the cup was clean why did I have to scrape it off the inside of my cup? If my drink was just made how could anything you poured in there immediately get stuck to the glass? And then I pulled a piece of hair out of my mouth while eating the Bangkok combination rice and they were so stank about it. Just fire that waitress fr because that could have gone a totally different route if she had any customer service skills.

Diner Review №26

La comida es exquisita, su presentación excelente, la atención amable, el ambiente requiere actualización pero no está mal y es muy limpio. A mi familia y a mi nos encanta su cocina!

Diner Review №27

It was my first time here and let me tell you! I will be back for sure!!
Start off the restaurant is very clean and set up nicely!
The service was excellent! I had two beautiful ladies serving me. I didn't have to wait. They were on top of it!
The food was delicious, my meal had seafood in it, which is my favorite!
All in all I would definitely recommend this place, and I hope you give it a shot like I did! (:

Diner Review №28

This is by far my favorite Thai food restaurant

Diner Review №29

Some of the best Thai food I have ever had!!!
Supurb food, Supurb service!

Diner Review №30

Delicious food and great service! Would 100% recommend checking out the desserts as well!

Diner Review №31

One our family’s favorite places to dine in Puyallup. We’ve been coming for years and have seen it through different owners. Both brought their flare to how they ran things, but both produced amazing food. My kids enjoy it here too!

Diner Review №32

Lovely dinner on a Friday night. Quiet, great service, good location. We enjoyed delicious yellow curry with tofu, and crispy garlic chicken. We'll return for dinner again during our stay in the area.

Diner Review №33

I visited this restaurant with a group of friends and we opted for a family-style dinner. The service was a bit slow, and the server was somewhat assertive, but not in a particularly good or bad way. I tried the Thai iced tea, which was on the sweeter side but tasted excellent, and I highly recommend it.
For appetizers, we had the chicken satay, which was decent, though the chicken lacked flavor and the sauces were just average. For the main courses, we shared several dishes: panang curry with chicken, pad krapow gai kai dao, and pineapple fried rice, with most items ordered at a spice level of 3-4. Although it took a while to place our orders, the food arrived quickly afterward.
The ambiance was nice and pleasant, though not extraordinary. The food was very flavorful, especially the panang curry, which came with a generous amount of rice. The pad krapow gai kai dao was also very well made, and I highly recommend both dishes. The pineapple fried rice was average and nothing special. Overall, I would visit again and try more dishes

Diner Review №34

Every time I’ve been here, the experience has been wonderful. The food is excellent, the service is fast and very friendly, and the atmosphere and seating is warm and accommodating for parties of varying sizes.

Ordered appetizers and entrees the several times I’ve been here and it’s all been spot on!

Fresh rolls with tofu and veggie spring rolls are great starters and the kids love them! The massamun curry with tofu is fantastic, has great flavor, and features a rich and delicious broth. The pad pak (veggie delight) was loaded with protein (tofu) and tons of veggies cooked to perfection. It was also accompanied by a lovely sauce.

And I can’t forget the Thai iced tea with coconut milk! Talk about DELICIOUS! And the carafe it comes in; keep it up! Biggest Thai iced tea I’ve ever had and it’s a big reason I will keep coming back.

Also, they’re open on Sunday, which is greatly appreciated!

Overall, I highly recommend dining in or getting take-out from Bangkok Thai! Great experience, fast, friendly service, and amazing food.

Great work, Bangkok Thai! 👏

Diner Review №35

Food is made to order and so fantastic. I would recommend it to anyone.

Small intimate atmosphere and family-run.

Diner Review №37

This place was recommended to me by a local. They raved about their crispy duck and I had to try it.

I got the fresh spring rolls the Tom Kha soup, crispy duck, and mango sticky rice. Everything was delicious, I couldn’t eat at all, so I took a little sampling of everything and packed the rest up to go.
There was a steady stream of customers coming in the door and for good reason. The proprietors and staff were all super helpful, positive, and kind.

Diner Review №38

I have ordered panang curry from here and it was very delicious 5 out of 5 and let me tell you the price was very reasonable for that kind of quality! Satisfied! Great place !

Diner Review №39

Great food. Love their curry and crab wontons.

Diner Review №40

Excellent food, artfully plated served by a sloppily dressed adolescent who clearly does not want to be there or interact with people. Do take out.

Diner Review №41

This place owes me NOTHING!!!!!!!
The food was awsome and the service was top notch. I would highly recommend trying this place you will not be disapointed.

Diner Review №42

The services is always great and the food is always delicious. Big portions.

Diner Review №43

Very delicious thai food in Puyallup! I requested for Thai authentic taste of phad ka plau, and it was as i wish for 🤩 the lunch combo very worth the price! We got rice and padThai on side in set too , it was WOW 😋😋😋 we will definitely come back again soon! However, i am Thai and i like spicy food, i order medium spicy today, but i will ask for level 5 spicy for next time :)

The 2nd time i return,order L1& L8, i was good, the chicken taste very delicious and crispy😋

Diner Review №44

Had the King Crab Fried Rice. Girlfriend had the Pad Mama Noodles and woohwhee both were amazing. Fried rice wasn't greasy, they actually gave decent portions of crab. If you want REAL spice, ask for a 5 and maybe extra.

But the kicker: the wait. For a Sunday evening, they seemed understaffed. However the food seems to make up for this. Maybe just expect a bit of a wait on weekends. Still the best Thai food choice for the area.

Diner Review №45

June 3rd 2024, Dinner time
The server was rude.

1st of all, I opened the door, she looked at me and walked away to the table. I get it you are serving food but basic manner girl! When a customer comes in the restaurant, at least say hi or smile to them

2nd of all, When I ordered food and i asked for authentic thai food (even i ordered laos papaya salad), she said 'well you just said laos' with a smile that called me an idiot. Come on! You know what i meant. I came to a restaurant for a reason. If i wanted American style, i wouldn't come here!!!
Common sense???

I ordered sticky rice and canceled my noodles dish and she said 'just sticky rice?'

Whyy?? You got problem with that? I will order what i want. You have no rights to judge me what I eat. Whats wrong with you?!

Last but not least, never ask how was the food or how i was doing!

Are you sure this is the right job for you or with this attitude and can't find other jobs?

I hope the owner read this review and reconsider about having you!

To the owner and chefs,
Thank you so much for cooking really delicious foods! I do appreciate but i wouldn't go back there to dine in. Your server doesn't deserve tip from me even a cent is too expensive!

But again, thank you for the food! I love it and will support your business as takeout

Diner Review №46

Diner Review №47

Food was good, i got an order for pad thai and yellow curry. Personally despite the chicken in the pad thai being a bit dry, it was the best dish. The yellow curry was as if someone dumped in too much of one seasoning. It had almost a bannana like flavor. Out of all honesty though, the spiciness of it was great, but the flavor of traditional yellow curry wasnt there.

Diner Review №48

Excellent Thai food made by Thai people. Always happy to support a local restaurant that provides high quality food. The ingredients are fresh and the taste is authentic. I’d recommend this place to everyone wanting to experience good Thai food in the area.

Diner Review №49

Great food and great service!

Diner Review №50

Food was delicious! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere!

Diner Review №51

We came here for the first time and enjoyed a great meal. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Ordered the Crab Wontons as an appetizer and they were delish! Also, ordered Pad Krapow ( Basil Chicken), Khao Soi, and Pad Krapow Moo Grob. All were heavenly! If you are in the Puyullap area, check them out.

Diner Review №55

Diner Review №56

Food has always been great, every time I come I try to have something new and I am never disappointed! The staff is always nice and quick. In my opinion they check on you just enough to enjoy your meal without the interruptions. They are definitely doing something right if I'm a repeat customer.

Diner Review №57

I ordered without egg in my food due to my daughters severe egg allergy (shown on receipt) and they still put egg in there.

I asked the front desk young girl to put in hot sauce on the side and she said she wrote it down and never put it in. I think the food is delicious don’t get me wrong but the customer service needs a lot of improvement.

Diner Review №58

Such a wonderful experience getting to eat here, and everybody is so nice! But the food definitely the best part, 100% our family new go to Thai place

Diner Review №60

I'm not sure what the name was of the young lady that helped me but she was absolutely gorgeous. I was on the way back from picking up a new dryer and mentioned it and she told me she breaks everything. I should have told her she looked beautiful that day.

Diner Review №61

I came back here for the 2nd time for some more Papaya Salad (Lao Style) and I also wanted to try their Duck dish for lunch. I really like their papaya salad. I really like the vibe and also love the location. Amazing food :)

Diner Review №66

I eat here frequently and have met many members of the staff. The food is outstanding and all the servers are both competent and delightful. I have brought several friends here to lunch and they all loved it so much they are coming back with their families. Can't say enough good things about this restaurant.

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №68

Good thai food. Very fresh, just like you would expect. We had the orange chicken and garlic garden. Very good.

Diner Review №69

I called to ask a few questions about ingredients as I have a severe allergy. They were very nice and answered my questions. The food was amazing!

Diner Review №70

Diner Review №71

Ordered the panang curry and it’s the best one I’ve had. They definitely make it spicy enough here also which I love!

Diner Review №72

My son took me there after helping him move. He had the Crying Tiger and I had the Crispy Garlic Chicken level 3 spicy. They were both very good.

Diner Review №73

This has been my favorite Thai restaurant in town for man years. However today I visited this restaurant and they had new servers I had not seen previously. After being seated we sat that for the next 20 minutes without even any water. Then I begin to notice that our server is seating and serving other people in the room and even guests right next to us, just not us. She keeps looking over, but never actually coming to take our order. Then finally another server working on the other side of the entry, finally comes over and takes our order. The meal only took another 15 minutes to come. After getting our meal we noticed that the server never came and asked how the meal was, never filled our water and never brought us the check. Then I started noticing that the only people getting served from the server on our side were Asian. They by the way, were getting great and attentive service. Then it hit me that the reason this was happening is because we aren’t Asian. Eventually I got tired of waiting for the check and went up to the cashier to pay. When I mentioned the treatment I had received the servers got very angry. As a result of poor service and treatment, I won’t be back. Ever!

The presentation of the food is pretty, the food is absolutely delicious. The staff is friendly and professional. The restaurant is clean and comfortable. Great place to eat, relax and visit with your friends and family.

Diner Review №81

This place has improved so much! We have ordered from here more than once since we moved back into the area. I never like to leave a review after only visiting a few times. With that being said, we love the authentic tasting food and service. Their papaya salad (laos style) is delicious. :) I would have added photos, but we demolished our food. Oh yah...khao soi...ahhhmazing!

Diner Review №96

Diner Review №97

I got the #40, Khao Soi, a coconut curry soup, and my boyfriend got #42, Pla Rad Pik, a deep fried talibut dish.
Both were absolutely DELICIOUS. He would not stop talking about how amazing the talibut dish was. The soup was big enough that I got to enjoy it again at home too.
It's really great food and the thai iced tea is very yummy too. I also appreciate vegetarian options being available.

Diner Review №98

Great food

Diner Review №112

This place is amazing. I asked them to make it hot and that 5 star is normally way to mild. They delivered, and kept the taste! It may not have been the hottest, but by not sacrificing taste, my hat is off to the chef.

*new owners* *new menu*
Place has a new look inside. Everyone is very friendly. Everything is super clean.
Chicken Potstickers were delicious with a thick sweet sauce. 1st time having a sauce like that but it was really good. Bangkok Fried Rice with no pork and no cilantro and that was to die for. Kaplau Gai Kai Dao with beef and no fried egg loved it especially the crunchy veggies. We also got the Tom Yum Noodle Soup this was our only disappointment. It was nothing like Tom Yum soup that I’ve ever had before. I normally only eat Tom Yum soup when I’m not feeling good for the healing properties (yes Tom Yum soup can help heal you from a cold - look it up I’m serious!) but it was cold and rainy so I thought why not. I asked for level 2 spice and it was not hot at all. Didn’t taste like Tom Yum at all. It wasn’t nasty just not Tom Yum or even close to what I expected. It was more like a bland chicken pho. I wonder if I got just the Tom Yum without the noodles would it be the same but I was so disappointed I didn’t want to even ask. The other meals were so good I’d totally forgive them and go back again. Check this place out if your local. It’s not my fav place but still pretty good.

This place is fantastic. Aside from the fact that the food is delicious, the portions are huge! Hands down, this is the best Thai restaurant I know of in the area. But don't just take my word, go check it out for yourself.

Diner Review №121

Had the yellow curry. It was fantastic- creamy and full of flavor. Best around.

Diner Review №122

Yellow curry is my favorite lunch special. This is hands down my favorite yellow curry restaurant in the county. And as much as I love their yellow curry, the pad tie that comes with your lunch is almost better. I really love this place

Diner Review №123

great food...will go back and try something different on next visit

Diner Review №124

Good food

Diner Review №125

Diner Review №126

I use to go to this restaurant weekly for years but sadly its under new management now and they completely ruined the entire menu, no longer quality ingredients and good recipes. All the recipes are different and are purely based on the cheapest fillers, they use to make the best yellow currie chicken ive had at any thai restaurant anywhere, now its one of the worst ive had thats 90% just massive chunks of potato and very little anything else. It's really disappointing me that they have completely ruined this once amazing restaurant

Diner Review №127

The food's delicious and the owner's daughter real nice and friendly.
You should try it

Diner Review №128

I've been ordering here for years. Suddenly the containers are half full and there is mushrooms in my curry, despite not being listed on the menu or if you ask to not have them. What the heck happened? Used to be the best in town, now you get 30% less food. Pad thai is always dry and the noodles are so overcooked they arrive in a permanently melded brick. There is one or two pieces of chicken in the curry. It's become a rip off.

Diner Review №129

Service was great! Food was delicious!

Diner Review №130

Service and food was great i had gotten the pannang curry and lao papaya salad with sticky rice the shrimp rolls and Bangkok fried rice. Everything was amazing and so was the fresh coconut juice and mango lemonade. The food came out fast and was hot and delicious! Very small and intimate place that is family owned and we will be back for sure due to the amazing hospitality and phenomenal food!

Diner Review №131

The food here is really good, my favorite was the green curry. They give you a scale between 1-5 for spiciness and we ordered 2 for all 3 dishes but they were all spicy, so if you’re not a fan of spicy make sure to tell them. I removed a star because the noodle dish was over cooked and very little beef given (even though we paid extra for beef option). Also the pineapple fried rice did not come in a pineapple bowl but maybe that’s because it’s not in season which isn’t a big deal but would’ve been nice

Diner Review №132

I'd rate the gyoza with 10 stars if I could. Egg rolls were super good, too. Hot and crispy. Perfect. Service was swift and courteous. Definitely going back.

Diner Review №133

Pad Thai was absolutely amazing and very filling! Good portions and the inside of the restaurant is super cute, filled with authentic Thai decor! Came pretty close to the end of the night, but they were very great still!

Diner Review №134

Great fresh food. Great customer service. My favorite is Pad Thai and chicken delight. Highly recommend

Diner Review №135

Simply the best Thai food in Puyallup. A real sleeper hit.

Highly recommend the pineapple fried rice and the crispy garlic tofu.

I do wish they'd go back to playing traditional Thai music in the restaurant like the restaurant did before it was purchased by another family but the food more than makes up for that small gripe.

Customer service is always top notch and extremely friendly and attentive.

Prices, while high these days are still par for the course and are actually somewhat competitive with the surrounding two Thai restaurants--beating them out.

Support a family owner restaurant and enjoy a seemingly authentic Thai dining experience.

Diner Review №136

Who needs atmosphere when the food is so spectacular. Small place, friendly staff. Try the coconut water in the shell. Spice levels are not too hot, so order their homemade sambal on the side if you want more heat!

Diner Review №137

We love the taste

Diner Review №138

Very good I have eaten there years
Always great

Diner Review №139

Amazing!!

Diner Review №140

Great food everytime, doesn't matter what I order I am never disappointed!!

Diner Review №141

This is quite literally the best Thai food I’ve had in such a long time. 100% my new go-to place.

Diner Review №142

OUTSTANDING! Thai is all about the peanut sauce and it was delicious :-) Service was superb with very friendly staff. Can't recommend highly enough.

Diner Review №143

The orange chicken is my favorite. The food is really good here.

Diner Review №144

We had a very enjoyable visit. The staff are personable, seem to genuinely care about your experience, and they hustle. The food was great, an ample amount and tasty. The building looks sketch, and the interior short on ambience, but I guess that's how they keep prices low.

Diner Review №145

Authentic thai food. Friendly service. Clean and lots of parking. A gem in Puyallup! Go check ‘em out!

Diner Review №146

Love the new ownership and the food. Best Thai in Puyallup now.

Diner Review №147

Always love coming here! Order anything off the 'Thai Street Food' menu and you won't be disappointed. We had the Pork Belly and Broccoli with a fried egg. For the entree we went with the Duck Curry. Woah! Perfectly crispy and flavorful. Would definitely get again.

Diner Review №148

I was so impressed by the food here!! We eat Thai all the time and this one has definitely come to number one on our list. The service was wonderful and I had great conversation with the server. She was so personable! We will be back!

Diner Review №149

We are Thai food enthusiasts, it’s pretty much all we eat! And let me tell you, this place had the greatest food. We had the garlic chicken and the crispy chicken with pad Thai and rice. Everything was amazingly delicious and the service was lovely. The woman was quick and kind. The place was also very clean and well decorated. Highly recommend coming here and we’ll be back!

Diner Review №150

I ❤️ this authentic little family run Thai restaurant. The service comes with a smile and the food is made with love. The crispy garlic chicken is so yummy. We get it every time. If you like soup, try the Tom Kha Gai. The best I’ve had in the area. All fresh ingredients. I don’t like spicy so one star is hot enough for me. My son likes the Crying Tiger. A lot. It’s a nice cut of steak, not fatty or gristly. The menu has all the standards like Pad Thai and Curry, but if you are adventurous, there’s authentic Thai street foods that I’ve never seen anywhere else. Also, I usually don’t eat desert when I’m out, but I can’t say no to the mango sticky rice - very delicate and sweet. Never had a bad meal here. Like I said, made with love. We eat here regularly. Good prices!!!

It was the Best Thai food I've ever had. It's worth the drive from Enumclaw.

Diner Review №153

The last two orders we bought were inedible. So spicy it burned our mouths. Too bad we used to be loyal customers but no more.

Diner Review №154

Such tasty Thai food! We’ve been struggling to find a good place and we love this one. Service is great, flavor is awesome, and they are fast!

Diner Review №155

Diner Review №156

Climate controlled and has almost anything you would want inside.

Diner Review №157

I should start by saying this was both a new experience and a return to an old favorite. I had previously visited this location a few years back and had come several times after because the food was good and it was near where I was living.

I had moved away over a year ago and was traveling to the area with a friend and decided to stop in for a bite to eat while we were in the area. When we arrived I learned that the location had new owners who were running the restaurant and that the menu looked a bit different. Below are my scores for the location, service, and food.

Location: 5/5

This location is near the South Hill Mall, but not in the mall which means traffic was not bad around the building. The tables were clean along with a clear menu of the specials and special lunch options. The seating had several options but provided good space between patrons so you could talk freely and enjoy your dinner without it feeling bunched together. The table menus were both clear and stated all items in each dish, and they included a lunch insert for specifically lunch options.

Service: 5/5

Our server was also the host, she was quick to greet us and got us to a table quickly. She provided menus and allowed us time to select our food, and seemed to return just when we needed her. She clarified for us, our very few, questions and offered us drink options. From taking the order to receiving the food was under 10 minutes with our appetizers arriving first and just as we finished them our main dishes came. She was attentive with providing water, but did not hover around the table. And, was very friendly and informative about items on the menu .

Food: 5/5

So I did come with expectations because I had enjoyed this locations food in the past, but I was not expecting to find my favorite Thai restaurant in the south sound area! Our order was an appetizer of chicken pot stickers, a Thai ice tea, an order of Pad Thai, and crispy garlic chicken.

The potstickers were very good with fresh tasting veggies and a semi sweet and salty sauce that blended perfectly together to create a cacophony of flavor.

The Ice tea was for my friend and he raved about how good it was to the point where I felt like maybe I missed out by not ordering one. It came in a tall almost milk bottle container that looked great and had quite the presentation with a rich orange color.

The Pad Thai was great! It was only a spice level two for us, but it provided great flavor a d just enough spice to feel a slight warm flavor as you eat. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the chicken was tender. The bean sprouts and carrots were all fresh and everything was hot and delicious from first bite to last.

Lastly, we have the crispy garlic chicken. I do not even know where to start... It was some of the best chicken I have ever had! Tender, with a crisp crust of garlic flavor that blends perfectly with a slightly sweet garlic sauce that was so good I wanted to drench the rice in it! I have been searching for a crispy garlic chicken in the south sound area since I went to a restaurant in West Seattle called Buddha Ruksa which has amazing garlic chicken, Bangkok Thai is now that restaurant!

Overall: 5/5

I think the above says it all, but I completely recommend this restaurant and look forward to my next visit! If you are looking for great flavorful food in the Puyallup area this has to be one of your stops!

Ordered tofu pad Thai level 5 spice (rating is 1-5) and it was a pretty accurate indicator of spice, which I liked. Though it was just a tad too sweet for my liking, but I prefer mine much less sweet than most people.

Also ordered the boat noodles which were very good. Broth was delicious and the ingredients went nicely with it.

Best pineapple fried rice!! Hands down!

Diner Review №163

Probably the best Thai restaurant in Puyallup; their new menu is a huge improvement and their staff was excellent. Do yourself a favor and order the Chinese Broccoli with Pork Belly — only place you'll find it in the area and it's worth it!

Great service: the fresh rolls with peanut sauce are perfectly light and delicious. I have never found a dish here I didn't thoroughly enjoy. Their 1 to 5 stars for spiciness are perfectly what I expect each time. Enjoy!

We come here every week because it’s the best Thai around

Used to be my favorite place to eat! Recently they changed their recipe for their curry, which now includes some kind of potato or eggplant and no more bamboo? Portion sizes also got a little smaller due to inflation/supply I'm guessing. Still decent but I miss the old recipe!

Diner Review №174

I went to Bangkok Thai today and had the yellow curry chicken and a seafood dish, and after almost finishing my meal, I discovered a fly in my yellow curry dish. I just wish I had seen the fly before eating the food. I guess flies can fly around and accidentally land in your food however, it still shouldn't happen. I would think the cook would see the fly in the food before serving or keep a cleaner area. I'm thankful I didn't eat the fly that contaminated my food, but who knows if there were more flies in my food that I didn't see and I ate it or them! Yuck! After coming home, and thinking about it, it just made me so sick because flies carry germs and disease. It is so sickening. I guess it's not the cook's fault but I think I will never return to Bangkok Thai again because I will always feel there might be a fly or something else that's not suppose to be in my food and it's a shame because I was happy with the service and the food is delicious.

Not sure why this place gets $$ when it's truly $ when it comes to there lunch specials. The lunch combos are the best bang for the buck. My favorite and go to plate is the chicken cashew with pad Thai. Try it for your self.

Diner Review №176

Love this place good food, good humble people! Great for take out or dine in, it tastes so good!

Diner Review №177

My husband and I recently got takeout from Bangkok Thai. It ruined my husband’s life for about two days. Let’s just say the toilet was his best friend during that time. The price for the portions was good, but the food was mediocre. We decided we would pay a little extra, drive a littler further, and go to Thai Pepper.

Diner Review №178

Ordered spring rolls and Thai tea. The spring rolls didn’t have much noodles, chicken and shrimp. Mostly all greens. iIt’s under a new management, my advice: make the food worth coming back too. The Thai tea was good. Hopefully when I go back the spring rolls will be fulfilling.

Nice Thai restaurant! Recently changed owners. Great awareness of needs for gluten free dining for someone with Celiac Disease. Really enjoyed our meal!

Diner Review №180

This place used to be awsome. But new owners charge more for less food. I understand inflation but pick one or the other. I have been here 5 times since it was sold and its just not consistent.

Diner Review №181

Modest setting with amazing food and service. Fresh vegetables and tasty dishes. Will definitely return!

The menu has been upgraded since I last stopped here. We had red Thai curry with beef and the Crying Tiger which is a flank steak with sticky rice. It was amazing. The server was first rate. Not a pretentious place but clean and well kept. It's about the food and the food was remarkable. One of my favorite places for Thai food.

I have ordered this a couple of times now on DoorDash and I have to say that it is FANTASTIC! I keep getting the Panang Curry with Jasmine Rice and it's so freaking good. Hot, tasty, sweet, and loaded with bell peppers and chicken. Try it - you will enjoy it!
