I know we just moved here, but this might be our go-to choice for Thai food in Bloomington! The restaurant is small, but still maintains a good atmosphere. The night I visited, they were very busy, with a large party in the back part; however, they didn't miss a beat, and service was as good as you would hope. Food was so good, I had to order a second dish, so I could take the first one home to the wife! We also found the prices to be reasonable. A high bar has been set. We will try other places, but I won't be surprised if we keep coming back. read more

I used their website to order takeout. The site tells you it takes 45-60 minutes to prepare an order. I showed up about 50 minutes after ordering and my food was hot and ready on arrival. The host who greeted me and brought out my order was very friendly. While I was waiting for him to get my food from the back, another staff member also came by to check that I was being helped. I ordered the fried eggplant stir-fry with tofu and the coconut ice cream. The stir-fry tasted good, but I selected spice level 3 "hot" (and the takeout container had a "3" written on it so I know they got it), yet there was not a hint of spice in the dish, not even a single chili flake. I don't know if they messed up and forgot to add the spice or what, but I was kind of let down. Taking the heat level out of the equation, it would rate it about average for American Thai food. I wasn't really impressed by the dish, but I enjoyed it (spicy is nice but not a must-have for me if there are other flavours). I liked the coconut ice cream dessert. The included banana spring rolls were helpfully packaged in foil separate from the ice cream, so I warmed them up in my oven a little, and they were very good warm. I'm pretty sure that what the menu calls "homemade coconut ice cream" was actually vanilla bean ice cream with shredded coconut on top. Which is still delicious but not what is written on the menu. Based on my single visit, I don't think this is close to the best Thai in Bloomington, but it's alright, and I might come here again because it's closer to home than the other places I like. I might have even given the food 4 stars if it had just been described differently on the menu, but the lack of spice in a dish that was supposed to be made hot plus the "homemade coconut ice cream" not being that left a little bit of a bad impression. read more

It's possible I ordered wrong (a friend says their larb is pretty good), but I found the Pad Kee Mao to be very disappointing here. While the vegetables were reasonably fresh in texture, the noodles and chicken were squishy and the sauce didn't really taste like anything. Despite ordering it "hot" (3/5), it also wasn't spicy at all. They were also overwhelmed enough that service was extremely slow--my online order took over 30 minutes to be ready, including waiting at the front stand without being helped for ~5 minutes two separate times. read more

Nearly 10 years later and Bangkok Thai is still our favorite Thai spot in B-town. We were back in town for an alumni weekend and made sure we ate here. After a full day of tailgating and football game, there's nothing more than I wanted than some light, tasty food. The Som Tum (green papaya salad) hit the mark for me. It's served with shrimp for some protein! It was perfectly prepared - well balanced. They also asked a scale of 1-5 for heat and I picked 3 which was perfect for me. It built in spice but not spicy enough to make my nose run. The hubby ordered the Pad Kee Mao, which I found tasty and he enjoyed it as evidenced by the clean plate. Hoping Bangkok Thai Cuisine is around for another 10+ years so we can continue enjoying when we visit! read more

I had dinner here for the first time with a large group yesterday. I ordered Pad Thai, my meal was great. Customer service was absolutely amazing. Both servers we had were kind and super responsive. I'd return and recommend to others. read more

I found myself over an hour early for an appointment and thought I'd grab a quick solo lunch. Bangkok Thai isn't a place we normally go and I was craving some spice so it worked out. Lunch crowd wasn't empty but far from crowded. BT is more aesthetically pleasing than my usual place by far - and the food is good but not quite as good IMHO. I had - no surprise- the drunken man's fried rice sans tomatoes and level 4 of 5. Normally I go to the top of the scale but here a 4 is 'Thai hot' and a 5 is "lava" which scared me. The 4 was perfect but I coming back soon and I'll go for lava. If this is my last review you now know why :) Service was great, friendly and lunch came super quick - too quick for my situation but on a normal work day I would have been delighted. Worth the trip and if you try the lava 5-star heat let me know how it goes!! read more

We love this place! Fast and friendly service and everything we've tried has been excellent. The decor and setting is casual but lovely. The food is always tasty, we've had several things in the menu and have never been disappointed. Not cheap, but worth it! read more

Host took almost 15 minutes to seat a party of 3 when the restaurant was half empty. Wait staff took another 10 minutes. The food and ambiance compensated for the lack of service. We ordered the 3 appetizer platter which was tasty. Cashew Chicken stir fry was good but Drunken noodles and Spicy chicken lacked the flavor. An Ok place to satisfy your cravings after a hectic day of move-in at IU. read more

My go-to is usually the Pad Kee Mao (Mow), but this time, I was in the mood for curry. Unfortunately, the curry didn't quite hit the mark; it lacked flavor and just wasn't very tasty. I'm not sure if it was because I went for the spiciest spice level, which might have drowned out the other flavors. Whatever the reason, it simply wasn't up to par. I've had better Massaman Curry at My Thai, and that's saying something. Coincidentally, I visited with the same company as my last review in 2019. My bestie, who always opts for the Pad Kee Mao, let me taste hers, and I regretted my Massaman Curry choice. As for the service, it was okay. My best friend and her mom are regulars, and they had a good chat with the possible owner. However, the chatting seemed to take precedence over order writing. This led to a small hiccup where the server forgot about the appetizers they ordered. Luckily, they were full from their meals, and the oversight wasn't a big deal since they weren't charged for the appetizers. read more

The food was great, and the service was perfect. I'm just a little concerned about cleanliness and potential health code issues. There were parts of the interior that were absolutely filthy. I hope they give the place a good cleaning. read more

It's ok. We paid $43 for 2 entrees and dumplings. I would definitely not recommend the dumplings. Pictured is the volcano chicken, once again just ok. I ordered spicy level 2, definitely recommend at least a 3, there was not much spice. HOWEVER, the service was amazing. read more

Consistant good service and great food. And you can choose what degree of spice you want.

Drops further. Easy order. Pad woon sen X 2. Tofu was barely cooked, some not at all. Ordered spice level medium. No spice at all. One order was pretty warm, the other near cold. Noodles hadn't been really mixed at all; their sauce covered some, not others. Portion sizes have been shrunken to new lows. Not worth it any more. See previous disappointing reviews. Not going there again. It's over Bangkok Thai. We tried, you failed us, again. This is a competitive town for Thai food, and the competition, even the bad ones, do better. You can, too. read more

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a smile from the host/server and manager, then quickly seated. The restaurant, tucked away behind Kroger, was very clean and quaint. I asked the server for recommendations, and he shared with me his personal favorites. I ordered the spring rolls and the chicken pad odd. My food came out quickly. It was fresh, hot, and full of amazing flavor!! All I can say is wow!!I You've got to try this place! And ask for Jacob to be your server! He's amazing! read more

Most dishes are made fresh, making them easily customizable. Staff are accommodating to vegan alterations and substitutions. Flavours are on point. Our favorites are: Tom Kha soup, Tofu fresh rolls, pad Thai, Pad ped, Larb, Drunken man fried rice, and mango sticky rice for dessert. I wish they would add more vegan appetizers and vegan roasted or fried dishes, and vegan desserts. Pros: Ambiance is good and relaxing, Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, Lots of parking Cons: Vegan Pad Thai could use more sauce. read more

Of all the Thai places in Bloomington, this is the best Thai restaurant! The only downside, it is the most expensive. The Thai style chicken wings were delicious, crunchy, the sauce was amazing, but the meat quality was a 4/5. Now the Pad Thai was phenomenal! It had a great flavor, not too spicy, and the noodles were exquisite. In my opinion, a Thai restaurant is only as good as their Pad Thai and that's why Bangkok is the best in Bloomington! I will be heading back there again and strongly recommend it. read more

Visiting family in Bloomfield and was craving Thai food. Traveling from Hawaii (so we have a lot of Thai restaurants). This food was on point and better still was the service! We had a nice quiet lunch. Next time we are in the area plan to return and try their desserts. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious. Service is always friendly and attentive. My favorite Thai spot

We have been here once before and enjoyed it. We sat outside and seemed to be forgotten a bit, but the food made up for it. My husband had the Panang Salmon which he enjoyed. I had the Pad See Ew which lacked heat even though I ordered hot. I ordered a side of sweet and sour sauce which helped. It was worth the extra $1.00 they charged me for it. Overall I would come back. read more

My son is headed to IU and I saw this place in both yelp and YouTube videos so we decided to try it. It's cool that there is a street with so many ethnic foods from all over the world and this is one of the spots on the street. The outdoor patio was really nice to sit in when we dined there in April. The service was friendly and prompt. The food was pretty good especially considering it's a small college town. I tried to go back again on a recent trip with my son in June but it was closed for lunch. I'll definitely go back though in the Fall. read more

I highly recommend this place. Plenty of parking space, it's out of the busy campus. The ambiance is quiet & cozy. The server is super nice, the food is great & reasonable price (perfect for our likings). read more

Wow! Found this place by happenstance, and boy am I glad. The food is so fantastic! I ordered online for takeout and it was great! I got the appetizer combo, this was phenomenal! The crab Rangoons were the best I've had here in Bloomington! The spring rolls were very good as well. The tofu triangles were okay, a bit soggy but I expected that as it was take out. The highlight of the combo were the chicken saytan! Wow those were so flavorful, despite being thinly cut it was not chewy. The sauces are amazing! I was blown away by the cucumber sauce, it was fresh, and tasty! The other two were great as well, but nothing out of the ordinary. My second dish was the Pad See Ew, I got it in medium with tofu. It was very flavorful, the sweetness was just right and the spice was okay. (I did order light as I tend to the first time trying a new place, but there was a nice kick to it.) the tofu was nice and bouncy with a bit of a crisp, my favorite. The noodles were a bit all over the place, some crunchy, some less than, I personally enjoy that but some may not. Overall, this place was great! It is a bit pricier than other Thai place around town, but i believe it is totally worth it. The staff was very nice and cheerful. I'm hoping to dine in next time. If you're in town and looking for some good Thai food, this is your place. The parking is great too so you don't have to worry about it. read more

It can be easy to miss this restaurant if you're not looking for it. It's tucked behind kroger & Before i googled the location I didn't even know it was there. Let me tell you I am so happy I found it. Not only is the food delicious, the service is fast & friendly. I believe the owner (possibly not the owner) is there every-time i order. She is so kind & always has the sunniest disposition. I usually get the Pad Kee Mao or the Pad Pong Ka-Hree. Both are delicious! Definitely recommend this business. I would give 100 stars if i could! read more

Overpriced and underspiced. All four dishes were completely flavorless and the greasiest food we've ever eaten. We ate half of our order out of a sense of obligation and threw the rest away. Wish we had read the reviews first. read more

Customer service was great and I never write reviews but the food literally has no flavor like at all...my red curry taste like water and rice read more

We ordered the Green Curry & Red Curry (heat level 2). Both curries seemed watered down. Dunno if they use coconut milk or coconut cream. Tasted like a weak broth, so maybe they don't use either ‍ The Green was bland as all get up. Extremely disappointing. The Red was not as disappointing as the green. Still it was barely average. I will not order curry from here again. Siam House is the best Curry in B-town read more

Nowhere near the best Thai in town, although eastside location is tempting. Just not flavorful.

A different Thai restaurant than most in Indiana. One of owners and head chefs used to run kitchen at a now closed thai restaurant in the city that was very good and authentic. Menu has the basics but has some deeper cuts not found on most menus in midwest such as kana moo krob (crispy pork belly with chinese broccoli stir fry), pad ka prao gai sub (traditional thai style basil stir fry with ground chicken), moo dang wonton soup (thai style bbq pork with house made chicken wonton soup), thai style tom yum noodle soup (not simply tom yum soup with noodles),etc. Place is very clean, almost fancyish, and service is stellar. Beer and wine on menu as well with solid drink specials. Prices are slightly higher than other restaurants, by a buck or two per dish, but portions are solid and taste and quality worth it. Highly recommend. read more

We love going here! The food is always piping hot, delicious, and full of flavor. The owner is wonderful, the service is personal, efficient, and genuine. I have thoroughly enjoyed everything I have ordered here! read more

What I love about Bangkok Thai is how easy it is to order online and pick up from their restaurant. They're always accurate with their orders, have a good range in spice levels online, and the food is well packaged to be hot. This past weekend I ordered from there and, due to other circumstances, was a solid 30-40 minutes late picking it up after its completion. They were very kind and I was shocked that when I got home, my food was still hot. The pineapple fried rice was nicely balanced. I'd always recommend the pad thai, but my favorite is tofu pad kra praow - its a must try! read more

Oh. My. My. My. We got to taste a whole bunch of things off the menu. Everything was so flavorful and amazing! The service was impeccable (ask for Pete). We got to meet the chef who is from Thailand and worked in a 5 star hotel. We met his wife. They were all so wonderful and inviting. We really really enjoyed ourselves. The chef even has a special that you can try. We are going to come back and do that next time. We tried the Larb, soup, the appetizers, and dessert. It was all delicious. The place is clean. We'll definitely be back. read more

One of the best Thai places ever! Not only was the food magnificent but the service was overall astounding. I went in with friends after OVER pregaming for the OSU tailgate. I ordered something that was a little too spicy and when I mentioned it to the owner, she quickly took my plate without hesitation and got me a whole new meal!! Thank you soo much for a pleasant lunch and for your friendliness :) read more

Let me start by stating that I'm aware I have very high culinary expectations with Thai good, a few trips to Thailand have spoiled me and left me with a craving that is hard to fulfill! I've never once left here disappointed, the food is spot on delicious!

The staff are very helpful and friendly, and I felt well taken care of and received everything in a timely manner. Highly recommended!! read more

I got tofu Tom yum soup and chicken pad Thai. The Tom yum soup was spot on and delicious. The chicken pad Thai was all wrong. They didn't use the right noodles and everything stuck together in a giant mass. The flavor was really weak overall.
