" Great Thai food, but I think they could improve by serving with real utensils for dine-in. I had the shrimp pad see ew, and it was delicious. Just be careful about spice levels; I grabbed a bit too spicy for me! I do want to come back and explore their curry options. Overall, a nice place to grab dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is my new favorite Thai restaurant! The Pad Thai is phenomenal, perfectly cooked noodles with the right amount of spice. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the staff are attentive and friendly. If you're in the area and craving Thai food, do not miss Bahn Thai! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bahn Thai has the most scrumptious curries. We ordered the massaman and the green curry, both were so rich in flavor and filling! The only downside? Plastic containers for eating in! Why not use proper dishes? It ruins the whole vibe. Still, great food and lovely wait staff made it worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed my meal here! Authentic flavors, yet the service was slightly slower than I hoped. We ordered the panang curry and it was delightful. The outdoor dining is beautiful, but I really wish they provided real plates instead of plastic ones. It detracts from the overall dining experience. Still, a good place! " (*Curated Review*)

" After several visits, I can confidently say Bahn Thai does not disappoint when it comes to authentic Thai flavors. Their tom yum soup is a must try, and the staff consistently provide great service. The only complaint I have is the use of plastic serving ware for dining in. Please consider switching to real dishes for a better experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bahn Thai has a wonderful vibe. The staff is so friendly and helpful. I loved their vegan options, particularly the Thai tea! A lovely touch that many places neglect. One downside was that the portions felt slightly small for what I was paying. Overall, still a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" First experience and it was delightful! I tried the tom ka soup and pad thai, both were fantastic! The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere great. Just isn't me that the food is served in takeaway containers when dining. I'd prefer real plates. Regardless, I will absolutely be back! " (*Curated Review*)
