We liked everything! I thought it was my first time here but realized once I logged on that I've had this in the past and wasn't a fan. I'm shocked! This time, we really enjoyed the ambiance, staff, and food. The soup stood out. We ordered two different kinds and liked both flavors. The curry and pad Thai were also good! Super cute inside. read more

I ordered 2 soups at Bai Mai Thai on 8-6-26 the Tom yum with crab and the Tom Kha with crab and mild spice. The soups were super salty and though it was a small order it hardly had any of the vegetables and 2 lumps of crab in it. ! I mean I literally poured a 10 fl oz bottle into one of the soups and it was still salty. I'm sad to say I encouraged my best friend to order as well seeing as though I had the same 2 soups last week and the Tom Kha was wonderful. She had hers delivered to her shortly after I went to get mine and said she only ate a spoonful and her mouth balled up from the salt. Not to mention her foot ended up swelling a short time later! I attempted to call and make contact with Bai Mai Thai, but they have an automated AI service set up that does not let you physically get through to talking to an actual person. They will text you a phone number to text your complaint or to call, but when you attempt to text there is no response. And when you call, it says that the number isn't accepting calls. This is very problematic and unprofessional from a business. This is not my first time having an issue with food that I've gotten from there, but it will be my last unless I'm dining in. I feel this is an unscrupulous way to do business. If you're not dining in, where they can immediately address any issue there may be with the quality of the food then I would suggest avoiding what could be a potential headache or in this case with the excess of salt... a health problem. read more

This is my go-to spot for Thai food. I love their Gaeng Gai with chicken; it's a curry chicken with coconut sauce dish. It comes with a side of white rice. I did try something new last time and ordered the spring rolls with chicken. They were surprisingly delicious with its fresh ingredients. The service is good, but can be a little slow at times. I usually order online and they'll send you a text message once it's ready. Overall, good Thai food, good flavors and reasonable prices. read more

My coworkers and I enjoyed a lively lunch. We all chose different menu items. Everybody was pleased. I had the garlic fried rice with shrimp. My friend had the pineapple fried rice. Both were really tasty. We also ordered the shrimp boats and dumplings. We didn't notice that much of a difference im the flavor of them, but they were tasty. The coconut ice cream was heavenly. I would go back just for that. The next time I go downtown Detroit, I'll stop by for ice cream on my way to Bell lsle for my treat The waitress was super friendly and very accommodating. She handled the entire dining room and the bar by herself--henomenal service. I recommend this restaurant for anyone who likes Asian food, whether they be solo at the bar or with a group of friends. or dining with family. The location is easily accessible off of I75. The shared parking lot has plenty of space. read more

Discovered Bai Mai Thai while visiting Detroit recently, and was quite delighted by it. I didn't eat in the restaurant itself at any point, so I can't speak to the level of service when dining in, but I will say that the place can be quite busy for dinner (especially over the weekend) and take a while to get your takeout order (I've picked up takeout myself, as well as ordered from DoorDash). That said, the portions are HUGE (easily could have been 2-3 meals worth) and delicious. My main regret, if you can call it that... perhaps it was just an unfortunate circumstance, during my stay in Detroit was that the hotel room I was staying in didn't have a microwave, so I ended up with a lot of leftovers that I didn't get to fully enjoy. *sad face* (And by no means is that the fault of the restaurant, obviously. I'm mainly saying that the food is so good, even as leftovers, that I'm bummed to not have been able to enjoy it all because they give you SO FREAKIN' MUCH.) Side note: I asked for extra crushed peanuts on my pad thai order that I ordered for takeout one night and they COVERED it with peanuts. As someone who loves the texture component, this made me so happy... so many places skimp on extra crushed peanuts. Not this place! TL;DR. Highly recommend for when you're in Detroit. read more

I had the Pad Thai with chicken and it was exactly what I imagined! Everything was freshly made and the portion size is huge! Very filling!! If you're in the area looking for Thai I'd highly recommend this place read more

Service was quick, our waitress was kind. The drinks were good and decently priced. It was a nice cozy restaurant that looked like it could easily become a regular stop when we don't feel like making dinner. That said, the food was disappointing. The Crab Rangoons (golden bags) - I was tasting more of the breading than the crab and cream cheese. Also, the filling was...weird? It didn't taste like what I'm used to having for sure. The pad cashew - flavorless. I'm so sad to say but it generally tasted like chicken cashews and veggies in brown salted water. The drunken noodles - ok. They were fine. Nothing amazing, but the best part of what we ordered. Nothing wrong with them exactly, but I've just had better before. Sad to say I didn't really enjoy the meal and probably won't be back. There were a lot of people dining in and ordering pickup, so I don't know if I just ordered bad dishes or what. But it looks like this is a family run business and I hope they continue to succeed! It just wasn't for me. read more

It was good but took so long to get my order. I had the pineapple rice and it was delicious with a nice amount of chicken and I added shrimp. Plump and fat juicy shrimp made the wait worth it! read more

I've only gotten delivery from here but everything is always excellent! Massamun Curry is my go to here but I've never had a bad meal. Hot & sour soup and crab Rangoons (called golden bags here for whatever reason) are solid as well. read more

The best Thai in the entire city! Would definitely recommend the pineapple fried rice!

I was recommended to this place by my sister I ordered Thom yum soup on 8/06/26 for me and my 94-year-old grandmother to share plus the garlic rice. The soup was extremely salted that it raised both our blood pressure and caused swelling in both our legs. We both got very sick and had to go to urgent care. I do not know if I will return to try your food again. I made several attempts that to contact someone about the soup but to no avail I didn't reach anyone but I did leave a message. I'm just reaching out again because I'm hospitalized and found the time to give you guys a review. There should be a better way to contact your place of business read more

Truly excellent Thai food in a spacious atmosphere with cool Thailand decorations plus great service and also very convenient WiFi (you just scan the QR code and it automatically connects). Got the pad thai curry noodle and also a dessert called Kow Tum Mud that is sweet red bean and bananas wrapped in rice rolls. Highly recommended! read more

I stopped in on a cold Monday night (yes they're opened on Mondays) after yoga. I just wanted a Tom Yum soup. The broth was vibrant, juicy and everything you expect in Thai. I had hot sake, but only because they were out of the Thai iced tea. The tea they sell is bottled and that turned me off. Plus they were out, which explains the 1 star deduction. I was surprised to walk in to a full bar and that had me wondering. Does this place get interesting on a Friday night? I imagine old Detroit - the folks who have lived in the neighborhood for generations (mostly black), meets the hipsters who moved in down the street in the last decade. Do they commingle here? I saw said hipsters leaving with carry out on my way in. Do they just dip in and scurry out? I wonder. Either way, the owners are a great, hardworking family who deserve your business. Give them a try. Sit at a booth. Stay a while. read more

Bai Mai Thai - Tom Yum Soup (Large) with Shrimp. - Thai Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

The food was alright, it wasn't the best thai I've experience. The restaurant and employees were nice!

I love BAI MAI THAI I have been going there for years - another Detroit best kept secret .I enjoy talking to the lady that is always there hostessing, ordering and cashiering - she does it all. I must say that I was shocked when I received my bill! I was charged $12 for at "13 Celsius Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough, New Zealand" - Highest price for this bottle in stores is $15! Plus it was'nt even presented in a white wine glass! From now on, I will place my carry out. I could have purchased the whole bottle of wine at Meijer's. ASK HOW MUCH BEFORE YOU ORDER A BEVERAGE! read more

I am so happy I finally got to dine in! Started with an order of the most crispy and delicious spring rolls. The table has chili sauce which went perfectly with the sweet sauce. For the main course I had the veggie curry which comes with tofu. So full of vegetables and ordered med spicy still made me sweat. It's a good thing our friendly server hooked us up with a carafe of water. Love the old school dark vibe. Looking forward to returning. read more

I have been searching Metro Detroit for my favorite Thai restaurant and I finally found it in Bai Mai Thai! The restaurant is in a strip mall on Lafayette - so convenient and free parking! It has a fun vibe, with ample seating and also a bar if you are so inclined. We ordered soup, spring rolls and two entrees. Our food was brought promptly by our friendly server and it was just perfect. We ordered our food medium spice and I will say it was perfect for our tastes, but if you shy away from heat I would order it mild. The soup was the best Tom Yum I have ever had in Detroit and both our dishes were fantastic. Our friends also really enjoyed their meals so we had 4 thumbs up from our table of four. My only problem is that they are so far away from me that I can't order carryout every week. When I am in the area I plan on going back. Sooo good! read more

i absolutely LOVE bai mai thai, there is an extensive menu with something everyone would like! i tried the drunken noodles and pad thai, the drunken noodles are the best and something i have repeat ordered:) i also took my parents here for dinner one day and they enjoyed it as well!! it does get pretty busy with quite a long wait during their peak hours, but completely worth the wait in my opinion!:) going to be a regular here for sure read more

I've been loyal to this restaurant for 11 years -- the food is fantastic and the longtime waitress knows my order by heart. However, the customer service has gone downhill. You can't even call and speak to a human anymore. Instead, you're forced to place orders through an AI bot, and when I did, the restaurant had no record of my order after I drove 30 minutes to get it. The customer base has grown, but the staffing hasn't kept up. One amazing waitress cannot carry the entire restaurant and its takeout operation alone. If management wants to keep loyal customers, they need to invest in more staff and better service systems. read more

Had a takeout order that we picked up: it was well wrapped in plastic wrap to prevent spills and messes in the car. Pad Thai medium definitely had a kick, and a huge portion that I ended up splitting with my husband. But very few pieces of chicken, I ended up supplementing protein with some of our own leftovers. read more

As someone who goes here frequently, it's kind of sad that our food was so disappointing . The veggie rice which is always my go to was harshly over seasoned and barely edible & was starving so I ate it. The veggie spring rolls were burnt as well. I think the heavy attention from social media has them overwhelmed and pushing out dishes faster than they should read more

The best Thai food in Detroit! The food is delicious every time and the owner is so incredibly kind.

So slow. Honestly a waste of time. I've been here for like an hour and I don't have my food yet, but there's like 5 people in here. Don't waste your time. read more

The food here is excellent. They prepare your food and cater to specific heat requests. They make sure the order is right and tastes great.

I ordered N2 paid Thai and and A1 spring roll online! The pad Thai was solid and service was very efficient

Great food, took a while since Tik Tok has brought everyone know about them. Delicious food and plentiful

A work colleague chose Bai Mai Thai for an office lunch, so I didn't have any say in the matter. We did a takeout order to eat at the office. I ordered the F2. Basil Fried Rice with Pork, medium spice. I also ordered the A15. Golden Bag, which is just crab rangoon, to share with my team. When I first opened the container I was impressed at the large portion with enough rice to feed 2-3 people. Unfortunately, my optimism was dampened after several bites. They are very stingy with meat, vegetable, and herbs. Maybe one basil leaf at most was used in this entire dish. I'm guessing half an egg was used. I could count on one hand the number of pork slices. There were no vegetables. Maybe two small slices of green pepper. What looks like a good deal is a rip-off once you realize that you're paying $10.25 for just rice. I couldn't eat even one-fifth of my meal. The crab rangoon pieces were small. You will find better at Panda Express. If you prefer quantity over quality, Bai Mai Thai is your place. If you expect a reasonable quantity of protein, vegetables, and fresh herbs, you will be disappointed. read more

Went looking for a local Detroit Thai restaurant from work today for lunch and wasn't disappointed. I ordered the Coconut Fried Rice with chicken and medium plus spice. Portion was huge, price was great, and flavors were fantastic. Coconut is prevalent flavor with loads of chicken and two meals worth for sure. Heat was perfect if you like some spice without having your face blown off. Picture doesn't do it justice to see how much you get and just how flavorful this plate is. Well worth the stop, take out or delivery. Another little find in Detroit worth visiting more often now that I know about it. read more

Busy little place for lunch after circling Belle Isle. We all agreed the food was tasty and the portions were more than enough! If you like hot you can go all the way; my medium plus could have gone up a notch. Drunken noodles, tofu curry, spring rolls and tom yum were all great. Got pretty busy, nice tables and booths. read more

Let me be clear, you idiots from Michigan would have absolutely no idea what good Asian or Mexican food was if it hit you with that RAM 1500 that's tailgating you while you're doing 85 in the left lane on I-75. As a native Californian, a state with actually good food, this is maybe one of the best Thai restaurants I've ever tried. Their shrimp pocket appetizer is the best they have. Don't bother with the curry puffs (especially with chicken, you'll need a microscope to find the minuscule amount of chicken they trickle in there). Their chili paste noodles are absolutely game changing, as well as their garlic fried rice. Those are MUST ORDERS every time. Amazing adult Thai iced tea, never been to a Thai place that does that. I can never decide whether to drink or get Thai iced tea, and now that decision has been made for me. It looks like a money laundering operation from the outside, but mother of pearl this place could single handedly save Detroit from being the worst city in the nation. read more

From first impressions, the decor was pretty and lots of space. I tried out 3 dishes - the red curry, pad thai and pad see ew. Unfortunately, the pad see ew and pad thai weren't outstanding (especially since the pad see ew weren't the right noodle type as I expected). However, the red curry was worth the visit! The curry was creamy and flavourful with the right amount of spice. The rice and chicken portions in the curry was massive and so filling. The service was friendly and helpful. I wasn't a big fan of their QR code system since it seemed like it was a bit more complicated compared to other systems I've done but the waitress was kind to resolve the issue. read more
