Back for the second time in a week! Green curry with roti is now our go to dish. I like it with pumpkin vs. chicken. The BBQ pork was tasty and moist. Pad Thai was seasoned well and yummy. The lunch special noodle with chicken was surprisingly a little soupy but delicious. They have an extensive menu with many more items that we look forward to trying. Friendly and efficient service is a definite plus. Sorry, no photos as we dug in ASAP read more

Delish food! i've tried most items as Bua (owner) volunteers at our school. She makes the most delish food! I am looking forward to continue supporting her small business. Ambiance is calm and relaxing read more

Ordered the masaman curry with a side of rice and the angel wings. The curry was filling and warm, perfect portion where I was able to eat it all. They don't skimp on the veggies nor the meat (I had chicken), and the cook with tender but not soggy. The rice was fluffy and fresh. The angel wings were soooo good and were unique as I have not had these anywhere else. I enjoyed the texture and the yummy flavor. Service was nice and friendly. The place wasn't too busy and they were easy to get ahold of when we were ready to order and then ready for a check. Clean place with ample seating. If you're looking for parking the area is pretty safe, and the bart or target parking lots are nearby if you want a more secure spot. read more

Great Thai food at good prices! The papaya salad was super fresh and the pad Thai was delicious with plenty of portions for left overs. The staff was patient and helpful. read more

The sign said something like, "Feel Good Food." I'm just hours from a breakup conversation and for some reason Thai food became the comfort food of choice, and I'm glad. Yes! The food was yummy and I didn't need to eat it all, but I did!! The restaurant is comfortable, sort of a homey feeling. And of course, the most important part always, is the service. My wait person, who may have been the owner was super efficient and kind. She seemed to know all the other customers and they were happy to be greeted by her. So I feel better? Yes, just like being in good company and eating good food can do. I'll go back, and hopefully I may have a special someone with me as well! read more

Great Thai food that you can enjoy at this outdoor restaurant when the weather is warm.

Excellent service and excellent food! We received a complimentary order of egg rolls, and our waitress surprised us with a complimentary dessert with candle + happy birthday message for my daughter. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you want to avoid the crowds at the restaurants on Shattuck Ave. read more

You guys! Bangkok Thai Restaurant in Berkeley at 1459 University in Berkeley is the place to go even if you have to drive a ways! The food is delicious and there are so many choices to choose from. The couple who owns it is gracious and welcoming like you wouldn't believe! Bua and Tony are their names. My family feels like it's a part of their family now and we wouldn't think of going anywhere else for a celebration. They also give fundraisers to give back to the community. Please do yourself a favor and go there. https://www.bangkokthaicuisine.com/ read more

Ordered Basil eggplant with Chicken. It was delicious and flavorful. Husband ordered Pak Kee Mou. It was also very good. Son ordered Pad Thai with tofu, which was very flavorful. Portions are big. Prices are reasonable for lunch. Papaya salad was good, maybe just a little too sweet. Service was very good. Waitress always brought refills of water. Ambiance is comfy. Could be cleaner. Thr menus need to be scrubbed clean. Overall, very good place with tasty food, reasonable prices and nice service. read more

Quiet on a weekday around 7pm - plenty of street parking with meters that are free after 6 pm. The staff are polite, prompt and attentive. I ordered a green curry with duck and sticky rice ($3) - when I asked for green curry, I am asking for all the usual ingredients that go with it + duck as my protein. Instead what I received was the green version of a duck red curry with pineapple and bell peppers, which I can still accept. What was unacceptable was that both the pineapple and duck tasted like it has gone bad - the duck was very salty, almost like the beginning stage of cured duck. The sticky rice was okay. My total ~$24 before tax. read more

This place is my go to for thai food! Always delicious, consistent, affordable and prompt with service! They are my top place to go to for pad se-ew in particular, its super flavorful and tasty! Whenever we've done large lunch orders for the office, everything has always been packaged with care, has always been correct and has always been super easy to order thanks to their online site. They've even been incredibly kind and thrown in thai tea's for everyone, which was super appreciated. Unlike a lot of the restaurants in Berkeley, I also love dining in here the tables are spaced out enough that you can actually have a good conversation with friends and not have to worry about things being too noisy, or tables too close. Its also great for grabbing a bite alone, and working or reading a book. read more

Really good Thai food made right. Excellent service which made it even better. Generous portions at a great price.

This is my new favorite Thai place. They had quick service (takeout), delicious food, and reasonable portion sizes. So glad I gave it a try! Honestly, someone's description of the fried potato drew me in. Maybe I was just hungry, but I had to have them. They were hot, crispy yet tender, and so good, they did not disappoint. I was eating them so quickly I didn't even notice the dipping sauce until my husband pointed it out. We also had the pad see ew and chicken larb, and altogether it was enough food to last for 1.5 meals for two of us. (Easily over two meals for me alone, but alas) The food was ready in less than twenty minutes from when I placed my online order and since I was running an errand at target at the time it was easy to cross the street and pick it up before heading home. My only negative remark is that it's going to be hard to branch out since I just want to come back and eat here. read more

So yummy! Ordered the yellow curry, fried tofu, and fried chicken over ketchup fried rice! The star of the show was definitely the fried rice but the saltiness of the dish paired with the sweet curry was sooooo good. Totally would come back! read more

I placed an order via the phone for dinner takeout of red curry, mild, with tofu. I hesitated with whether to rate this a 3 or a 4 since on one hand it turned out to be rather pricey for a dish that doesn't come with rice, but they were also generous in heaping it full of vegetables so if you like your vegetables, this would be a good choice. Although the food was fine quality wise, it did not necessarily stand out in a way that would make me choose coming here over cheaper options for similar dishes. However, it would probably still be more worthwhile to come at lunchtime for their lunch specials. read more

Excellent rice! Overall, both my daughter and I enjoyed this place. The food had a little bit too much coconut for us, but I think that is a personal preference. We know there is coconut milk in pretty much all of Thai cuisine curry but in some the flavor is more pronounced than others. This time the coconut flavor was definitely more pronounced than in other places we've been to. But they give hearty helpings for the price and the flavor was spot on. FOOD: We ordered red curry, yellow curry, and pad thai. All were good but like I said for us the coconut flavor was a little bit too pronounced. We were impressed with how much chicken they put in. Definitely get your money's worth! The pad thai was also good but could use a bit more sauce. Overall though good! And the rice was awesome! SERVICE: weird they didn't do delivery at lunch but they do at dinner. They are open for lunch so why not? Everything was packaged nicely and they really stuffed every container full . COST: Very reasonable considering how much food you get! read more

Do you ever eat somewhere, and after trying just a bite, want to try everything on the menu? That's what Bangkok Thai does for me. I don't know how they do it. But they make the most incredible Crispy Sweet Potato Appetizer. I'm not sure of the process, but somehow the potato is both fluffy and crispy. Its almost impossible to not just eat these in the car before you get back home from takeout. Also, I love a good Thai peanut sauce, and this place by far makes the best. Their Pra-Ram tofu, incredible! I want to put that peanut sauce on everything. And or dip everything in it. This dish just makes me so happy. I use to eat here all the time when I lived in the Bay Area. And sadly it has been years since I've been back. But coming back recently ... the food is just as good as I remember it. Please eat here. read more

I ordered the yellow curry with chicken via delivery app. The service was prompt and the quality was good - not exceptional. I would order this again because the flavor was what I expected. I will admit the curry was not as hearty or filling as other local Thai options. Their Thai tea was very tasty though! read more

There seems to have been an improvement in the quality of the food over the past couple of years. I'm not certain if it's new ownership or they've hired a new chef who knows Thai food. It's been consistently good lately. I ordered the pumpkin curry this evening and was bit surprised at the consistency when I opened the container. I thought maybe I'd ordered a soup and not a 'stew-like' curry. However, the flavor was spot on and I'm happy it wasn't super heavy and saucy. Both the food and the service are wonderful and I'm happy to support this local business. And as a side note, I ordered all veg / vegan and they offered tofu as the alternate protein. read more

It's hard to spend less than $20 per person anywhere on lunch these days, but Bangkok Thai seriously gives you the most bang for your buck for less than $15, and I am so lucky to work nearby. Their menu is extensive with lots of options for various diets, plus they have an online ordering system which is great for group ordering. They also have a pretty broad dessert menu that includes three different types of ice cream (coconut, green tea, Thai tea) and roti. Although I have quite the sweet tooth, I do think their Thai iced tea and and coffee are too sugary, but that doesn't stop me from going regularly. read more

This is the family's "go to" Thai restaurant. They are consistently good, friendly, and with lots of options. Our family have three different levels of Thai spicy tolerance and Bangkok Thai hits them all. Appetizers are traditional and very good. My opinion is their curries are their specialties. Bangkok Thai is a very good Thai restaurant! read more

Great service and food! We ordered the Mango Salad, Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, and Salmon Curry (the curry does not come with rice, so we also ordered a bowl of rice). The Mango Salad was great, but the "mild" was a bit spicier than I had anticipated. Both the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew were delicious, and the Salmon Curry had a great flavor. The salmon was cooked just right (very tender), but we thought that the green beans in the curry were unneeded. The crunchiness of the green beans did not go too well in the dish, and the dish as a whole would have been better if the beans were replaced with some softer vegetable. The green beans just added a striking texture, but the taste of the dish was great. Overall, I thought that the flavors of all dishes were on point. I'd visit again, and I'm glad to have found another good Thai restaurant option in Berkeley! read more

This restaurant is amazing! The service is very friendly and prompt! The prices are reasonable! The food is delicious and we always overeat because it's just that good! We have two picky eaters, and they love this place. We get the chicken satay with sticky rice, the bbq pork, the pad see ew, red and yellow curry, and the deep fried spicy fish (seriously, so good)! Don't forget to get the mango sticky rice for dessert! This place is a gem! This is the best Thai food we've found! read more

I have been here a few times usually getting a Pad Thai with either beef or tofu or the Pad See Ew also with either beef or tofu. Both taste excellent! The noodles are thick and tasty, while the beef has always been chewy but not too difficult and tofu has been firm and consistent. Both dishes are flavorful and make me full. Besides the food, the service is friendly and nice. The server greets you right away when entering and the times I have been there it hasn't been that busy so I was seated right away. The restaurant has nice decor and an inviting atmosphere, so it's a good spot to eat with family and friends or a place to bring a date. The space is big with plenty of seating, so there shouldn't be an issue getting a seat most nights. Honestly with how good the food is, the great ambiance and convenient location (right on University Ave across the Target) I'm surprised it hasn't been busier. Don't know about parking though (I usually walk or take public transit). Bangkok Thai is a great place to get Thai food. read more

I stopped my yesterday for dinner and my wife and I ordered the duck curry and the fried chicken over fried rice. Of the two entrees, the duck curry was far superior: the boneless duck was nice and tender, and the curry was full of spices and had just the right amount of heat. The fried rice on the other hand tasted a bit dry and the chicken was a bit over cooked as well, no doubt due to how thin the chicken cutlet was. I would for sure come back here again for the duck curry. Portion sizes are large enough where one entree can last me two meals. read more

This is a delightful little joint close the major intersection of Shattuck and University. I've been coming here for about 20 years. In fact, I believe I went here the week it opened way back when. I have always ordered the same thing... chicken satay rice plate with extra peanuts and extra peanut sauce. I'm not sure what they put on the chicken satay sticks, but they come out a beautiful yellow. And they have nice little burn marks from the grill. It comes with a little salad and a big heaping of rice. Consistent. Delicious. Affordable. Pretty much the perfect lunch joint. read more

Good food and excellent value for when you want to have a big meal with family. Particularly enjoyed the pad see ew and golden bags.

The Pad Thai was disgustingly oily and sweet. The room was not heated and it was a cold day, which made for a unpleasant dining experience. The place is old, tired and worn. Needs a new chef and look. You can do a lot better elsewhere. read more

Ordered dinner thru UberEats and expected better dishes. The food is decent but I've tasted better. Pad See Ew was a bit dry, it has no sauce and very little serving of shrimp (it was actually an add on price). Other dishes we ordered such as panang curry, chicken satay and basil beef were all okay but a bit bland. read more

I loved this place forever, and have been a supporter of the restaurant even more so during pandemic BUT now i can't support a restaurant that either has a hair in the food or makes my food spicy even though it's specified no spice or mild. I walked away already even though they said they would fix the order the next day. I didn't go back. BUT I went back last night bc my mom wanted their pumpkin curry. SO I took a chance and I ordered food for my family as well Lo and behold my daughter opens her seafood curry and goes to take a scoop up with the spoon and out comes a longish orangey blondey hair. No one in the family has orangey blondey hair. I can't do it any more. read more
