    The Entrance
    Tommy M.

    I've been going here for awhile now and it's probably my favorite Thai spot in town. I always get the drunken noodles and mini Thai rolls. They have never disappointed! I would highly recommend both those dishes from here. They also have varying spice levels for all kinds of people. So, there is no need to worry about that. I typically like to get it spicy. The service is always good and the food wait time is usually pretty good. It's currently take out only but the place inside is very nice and clean. The people are always nice.

    Chicken pad thai
    Ben J.

    Found this Thai place on Bethel Road just west of Olentangy River Road. Only takeout; no in-dining right now. When I measure Thai restaurants, you have to pass the basics: Pad Thai, fresh Vietnamese spring rolls with shrimp and one of the appetizers - this time the fried tofu. Loved the Fried Tofu and the dipping sauce - nicely fried and soft inside. Dipping sauce had a great flavor. Finished them all. Fresh Vietnamese rolls were good too. Fresh veggies and plenty of shrimp inside. The rice paper wrapper was fresh and the peanut sauce dipping was excellent. Finally, the chicken pad thai had the thin noodles - my preference. Good amount of veggies and noodles - it was plentiful. Good tasting and the noodles were not dry at all. For a first visit, all three passed the test. Now time to try their other dishes and appetizers.

    This is a takeout online restaurant. The portion sizes are generous and online ordering is a plus. We got the red curry and the pad Thai. I loved the level of spice and flavors of the tofu red curry. I wish there were a few more veggies but it's hearty yet light (what I love about Thai food). I'm not the biggest fan of pad Thai in general (partner wanted to get it). The noodles were cooked well and the tofu added to it worked better in this dish than the red curry. I think next time I'll try the drunken noodles

    Today was my first visit. I stopped in to place a carryout order. The restaurant is presently only taking to go orders. When I walked in I was greeted by the staff member. I decided to get Pad See Ew with chicken for my dad and me. I got his meal with mild spice and no spice on my order. I also got an order of dumplings. In terms of prices, it will likely be between $15 and $20 per person. My order was ready in 5-10 minutes. It was well packaged and the food was still hot when I drove home. The dinner portions are large. The Pad See Ew tasted great with chicken, vegetables and noodles. The dumplings were also pretty good. Overall I was happy with my meal and recommend Bamboo Thai Kitchen.

    We sort of stumbled upon Bamboo while in the area and it happened to be around dinner time so we stopped in. Unfortunately, it is still take out only which was the only downside. We ordered a mix of things including chicken pad thai, pad see ew and mini dumplings. The pad thai was absolutely phenomenal. I really liked how they used very thin noodles as opposed to the traditional egg noodle shape. The sauce was great. I would get it again in a heartbeat.

    I've eaten food from Bamboo Thai Kitchen as take out for years, and have loved everything I've had from them so far-- be it the Tom Yum soup, the Thai Curry, or their Tiger Cry sautéed beef "salad". The portions are generous and prices are reasonable. While I can't claim to be an expert in Thai food, they're probably my favorite Thai restaurant in Columbus. The only possible downside here is that their dining room is only open on the weekends since the pandemic. For your weekday Thai food cravings, you'll have to order takeout.

    Iced tea

    Amazing food and iced tea, my boyfriend is from Thailand and he said this was the most authentic Thai food he's ever tasted in America. The service was incredible, they have jolly ranchers and mints sitting out and the wait was super short . Again the iced tea is amazing!

    Red curry with chicken
    Payal P.

    I have gotten take out from this place a few times. I usually go for a curry, pad Thai, or drunken noodles. I have noticed the drunken noodle is more veggies/tofu than noodle. So if you are looking for a more noodles don't order that and go for a pad Thai instead. Their pad Thai is decent! They are consistent, convenient, and everything is reasonably priced. Be aware that dine in is not an option. I think it's a pretty decent place to go for Thai in Columbus. Bendy Wok is similar but they definitely have smaller portion sizes compared to Bamboo Thai so I would give Bamboo Thai a higher recommendation.

    First time trying Bamboo Thai Kitchen. One of my favorite Thai restaurants-Nong's was closed so I ran across this place and it had good reviews so I thought I'd give it a try. Cute little restaurant for an intimate dining experience. Unfortunately the dining room is completely closed due to Covid. I ordered Pad Thai and Panang curry and a couple of eggs rolls. It came to $33 which I thought was a little expensive for the portions. Overall the food was good. I wouldn't say it the best Thai I have found in Columbus. I'm still searching for the best. But I would definitely order from here again.

    Pad Sew Ew
    Antora S.

    First time trying out Bamboo Thai Kitchen. We ordered bunch of dishes and they were all good. We ordered Tom Yum soup with chicken and shrimp, Som Tum, Combination house fired rice, Pad See Ew, Panang Chicken Curry, Thai Iced Tea, and KimChi. All the food minis Kimchi was good. The kimchi did not have salt what so ever. It was just bland. Out of everything that we ordered, my favorite was the Som Tum, the papaya salad, and the Tom Yum soup. Both were really good with just the right amount of seasoning. The portion size is pretty good. Will definitely go back and try different things from the menu.

Inside has plenty of seating. Tables and chairs. I ordered a rare steak and meatball phó, and chicken satay. I got an order of beef larb, and papaya salad to go. The phó was decent. The satay was great. With those dishes I was thinking this will be my new go to. The service was only ok for me. Back at the house I ate the larb. It was too thick. I didn't order a tiger cry dish. Larb is finely minced beef, pork, or chicken. This was not that. Not a fan. The papaya salad was the same way cut too thick. I wanted to try some more authentic Thai dishes.

Very much "home cooked meals vibes inside which feels great! the Thai soup is a go to for me, but the curry's and pho are always great options, especially when you want something filling! I loved the Thai spring rolls as well. I'm looking forward to dining in next time! (Will update review ha )

He finished majority of his bowl only leaving some broth behind. We both tried each others and both agreed on the diving chicken having a better taste but I think it's because it's spicier.

I had a friend ranting today about their pad Thai so I thought I'd give them another chance. That was a mistake. I ordered some seaweed salad, spring rolls and chicken and shrimp pad Thai.

I've never had lettuce in my pad thai, so when I opened it, I thought they mistakenly sent me a salad. But after I pushed away lettuce, I could see it was pad thai. Once again, something was just off with the noodles and only 3 pieces of shrimp. I hate to give a bad review but there are just way too many great Thai places to eat...this isn't it.

It was such a gorgeous day, I sat outside. I ordered the Penang curry with chicken and a couple of egg rolls. This is what I ordered via DoorDash, and it is one of my favorite dishes so I wanted to keep in consistent for my review. The waitress was attentive and friendly. It isn't busy at all. There is only one other couple dining during this lunch hour. The table outside is a mesh-top table, which is concerning, especially when you have a dish with sauce. When places don't provide a placemat, you risk food getting on your lap and pants. This would be a simple suggestion and fix. The egg rolls came out first. The presentation was really nice. They were nice and crisp, not soggy, like some places. The dipping sauce was perfect. I thought they were delicious. We are off to a good start! The Penang curry came out looking delicious.
