Very good. Found this place since it is right below our Air BnB apartment. Wonderful staff, great service. We were able to dine one night without reservation and second time we got our order to go. Love the little rice cakes - I put some hot oil on mine. I had the kadprao bowl both times- with chicken. Dessert was good sticky mango rice. Tres bon! read more

Bien Bien - Thai Near Me - Paris, 75

Ate there with family when we visited Paris about week ago. We craved Thai food very badly and the food hit the spot! Highly recommended this place. Their food tasted very authentic, and in my opinion, their food tasted better than some restaurants in Thailand and L.A. Overall service was good. Welcoming ambience. Will return if I ever go to Paris again. read more

Finding good Thai food in the city is tough, thankfully Yelp steered me to a legitimate spot! Late night spice cravings had me hitting this spot two nights in a row actually. Small quaint restaurant with friendly staff with your standard affair of Thai food with a few special items you would not normally see. Price wise, do not expect to spend a lot as it is quite affordable, and the food servings are quite ample! Now onto the food ordered, first night I just grabbed a Tom Yah, which was perfectly prepared and had all the correct ingredients and flavors, was quite happy. When I returned the second night, I opted for crispy spring rolls and Pad Thai, again, they knocked it out of the park! Thankfully I do not live near this wonderful establishment, or I'd be visiting it quite often. Highly recommend! read more

Best Thai food ever!! I eat there at least once on every trip to Paris. Green curry is amazing!

Excellent food and what a great find in Opera district in Paris... and THANKS TO YELP!!! Absolutely everything is DELISH here! Excellent flavors with fresh ingredient, perfectly balanced use of spices, food is NOT too salty as is common with many Thai restaurants, reasonable prices, and most of all, friendly and efficient services. We were hungry after shopping and ordered a variety of dishes... almost too much but all dishes were so good and I can't believe we actually finished everything! In my opinion, the Pad Thai and the Coconut soup are the must gets. They are sooo good and perfectly balanced with spiciness and sourness. One of the best I've had. Great find at reasonable prices. You've ought to try it! read more

You must try this place! Tiny restaurant with amazing flavor! We even thought about getting some orders to go because it was so good, but resigned to coming back another time during our trip. Don't miss it! read more

The spring rolls come in orders of 4 and they were pretty good, nice and crispy. For entree, I had the green curry with chicken. Surprised that it didn't come with any rice as is standard for curry dishes. Rice is an additional €3.50. The food was fine but on the small side. I noticed the tables next to me were slurping up their dishes in a matter of minutes and commenting they were still hungry. Overall solid food but not great value. read more

This review is for Bien2. There are two restaurants owned by the same family within two store fronts from each other. One is Bien Bien, which serves Thaï and Chinese (the couple are Thaï and Chinese). The other is Bien2, which serves primarily Thai dishes. We opted for the latter. I would have rated this place 4 stars but my husband convinced me to give them a higher rating. In my humble opinion, a dining experience can be completely altered negatively by the service you receive, no matter how amazing the food is. So, let me breakdown the points: Food - 5 Stars Ambiance - 5 Stars Bartender Hospitality - 5 Stars Server Hospitality- 2 Stars The restaurant was elegantly set up. The bartender was friendly and hospitable the entire time, often helping our sever during our dining experience. The server was a little cold -- as if she didn't want to take care of the guests. She often rushed to get the plates off our table even if it was clear we weren't finished with the dish. She was annoyed that we asked for the "larger" (i.e., regular) wine glasses instead of the cordial glasses we got along with our bottle of Tavel rosé. She was also put-off when I asked her to point me to the direction of the bathroom. Sigh. The food was excellent tho! The curry was perfectly seasoned -- not too creamy, not too watery. And the shrimp and vegetables were properly cooked. We can't stand over-cooked shrimps! The mixed veggies were also amazing. And finally, the "Money Bag" was delicious! One last funny, but nice touch was the array of perfumes and colognes in the bathroom on offer, free of charge. LOL. read more

My husband and I ate here on a very cold and rainy night in Paris. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by a very warm and friendly server. The food as top notch and definitely one of our favorite Thai restaurants anywhere in the world. We can't wait to go back! We ate at #2. read more

I must start with the music! The playlist is fire . For real. We really enjoyed ourselves. The service, drinks and food was great. Will return the next time we visit Paris. read more

The kids were ready for a break from French food, and to be honest, so were we. Bien Bien was just what we were looking for. Super friendly service, great ambience, and some of the best Thai food we've ever had. Pad Ke Mao with pork was 10 out of 10, the Pad Thai phenomenal, but the show stopper was the hot pot. Just amazing. One of those meals you eat and then wake up craving in the morning. read more

Came across this restaurant because we were looking for a "quick" meal. The service is fantastic and the staff are friendly and welcoming (which is refreshing when you are traveling)! We ordered the pad thai with chicken and shrimp, pad seew with beef, sweet & spicy fried fish, and a combo noodle dish. The dishes are fairly small (for American standards) so I could probably eat 1.5-2 items. It is decent Thai food at reasonable prices and most importantly, fast! I would definitely stop by here again if I wanted noodles or a quick meal. read more

Very authentic and best we had since our last trip in Thailand. For appetizers we had mango salad and crispy spring rolls. Then for mains, Shrimp Pad Thai and Shrimp red curry with sticky rice. A lot of fresh and crispy vegetables. We were full, but our main attraction for this place was mango with sticky rice. The service was excellent and the young gentlemen found out that we were from Pittsburgh and we talked about the Steelers and the Penguins, he is a Cubs fan bit was still kind to us :P. In all our travels all over the world we never met someone who never lived in the US to be so I interested in American sports. If you are looking for great food that takes your taste buds through the culinary delights of Thailand, and don't care about a fancy interior, then come to this place! read more

Friendly and welcoming staff, although I can speak a little French they were more than happy to converse in English which was great as my husband doesn't speak any French. The food was amazing. I don't think I have had better Thai anywhere. Great flavor, great price. Definitely recommend. read more

Pretty good Thai food. They are vegetarian (can substitute with tofu) friendly and speak English so you can really customize your meal, if needed. Overall, I've had much better Thai food in the states (more flavorful) but would recommend this place. Prices are very reasonable. Spice level medium is sufficient if you normally get spicy. It seems like they have two properties next to each other with the same name. Probably gets much busier fri-sun. read more

This place is amazing! We found Bien Bien by looking for a dinner spot that was within walking distance of our hotel, and it did not disappoint. The staff was very friendly and the food was AMAZING. I wish we had more time in Paris; I would have totally come back for more. read more

Too bad the waitress was super rude to us, this would've been a 5 star rating. We ate at the Bien2 restaurant which probably only holds about 20-25 customers at a time. The place was small, but the food was great. The food was so good we wanted to go back the next day, but the waitress stopped that from happening. First of all, my dad nicely asked if there was French beer (in a Thai restaurant in FRANCE) which the waitress said with a chuckle, "This is a Thai restaurant, we only have Thai beer" then proceeds to tell the bartender that story- which we clearly heard cause it was a small place. Rude. We ordered chicken Pad Thai, shrimp Pad Thai, duck Drunken Noodle, Beef Drunken Noodle & chicken Fried Rice. The portions are small, but the flavors were big! We thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Second interaction with the rude waitress was when I called her over to order another rice dish. As she was leaving, I tried to call out to ask her for some tea at my mom's request. She didn't hear me so I waited until I can get her attention again. She comes over again & I order tea. She then says, "Is that all? Is that all you want? Cause you keep calling me over here." With a serious face one. FIRST OF ALL, you're a WAITRESS. You're suppose to be waiting on us. Oh my god, the nerve. Mind you, the restaurant was small so it took her 4 steps to get to us. Ugh, good thing the bartender was nice to us and the food was good, she would've felt my wrath & I probably would've gotten physical. The nerve. read more

Pretty delicious Thai food which I was surprised to find here in Paris. We ordered an array of thing spicy coconut chicken soup (Tom Kha Kai), Pad Thai, Pat See Ew, Thai fried rice (Khao Pad) and everything was delicious. For any one who has been to Thailand it is pretty authentic and they even have Chang beer. It's also a really reasonable dinner not too expensive at all so I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the mood for good authentic Thai food. read more

Cozy in the heart of Paris. As a Thai food lover (have eaten at hundreds world-wide, including Thailand) I can honestly say, Bien Bien is the BEST Thai restaurant in Paris, hands down! Give it a shot, you will not regret it. read more

Great food, super nice staff that all speak multiple languages. Very inexpensive. Meals for two, with appetizers and wine cheaper than a bottle of wine at many places. read more

Bien Bien - Thai Near Me - Paris, 75

Brothers are funny, food was good, a Ute little restaurant tucked into a side street. A little overpriced But that's Paris.

We stumbled in after a long day touring the city. We were hesitant at to have Thai in Paris - however the reviews online were so solid that we gave it a shot. We are glad we did! We dined at Bien 2. The service was the best we've had anywhere in Paris. We were served by the owner. He quickly identified we were Americans and began asking us questions. He was thrilled to find out we were from Chicago and spoke to us about how he ironically supports Chicago sports teams. The food itself was great! We were given appetizers to sample as well as dessert recommendations around the city. This was a great find! read more

Found this place on yelp when vacationing in Paris. The food was excellent and I highly recommend this place if you have the desire to have Asian food while in Paris. read more

Really good Thai food, full of flavor and service was good too. We ate here twice during our 6days stay in Paris. Liked their basil chicken, panang curry and green curry chicken. Shrimp Shumai was average though. Prices are decent and one entree is more than enough for one person. read more

This place was really good. We got there late and the main restaurants kitchen was closed but Bien 2 was still serving. The owner personally escorted us and had them give us a table. We sat and ordered. The service was very good. Even though it was closing time we weren't rushed. The food came promptly and was extraordinary. Probably the best calamari I've ever had. And I eat a lot of it. The Pad Thai was also very good. I would never have thought it but I'm adding this Thai restaurant to my list of reasons to come back to Paris. read more

Great Thai food with very friendly staff. They can make it as spicy as you'd like. Definitely the best Thai food I've had in Europe, and would be a solid choice in the Bay Area or Thailand. (This is probably my favorite neighborhood in Paris, too) read more

Best Thai place I've tried in Paris! And trust me- I've been trying. Paya Thai has a good Pad Thai, but it is way too expensive! Bien Bien has decent prices and satisfies my Thai craving. I had the Pad Thai twice, it was good on both occasions. I also had the green curry chicken, which was above average. And the Pad See Ew was just okay. Everything passed my test though! They all tasted relatively authentic and I felt really good after. It didn't break the bank at all- rare for Thai in Paris. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Very tasty, authentic, easy to get tofu substitute even if it's not on the menu. Small, popular, and crowded.

Bien Bien was recommended by a local for its reasonably priced and delicious Thai food- our local contact was absolutely right! The decor is old-school from the 1970s but you don't go to Bien Bien for the decor. The Thai food is fresh and flavourful- the service is kind and helpful (it's owned and operated by a family). We really enjoyed Thai classics like their Pad Thai and pork rolls. Serving sizes are probably smaller than North American serving sizes but we certainly didn't leave hungry. If you get tired of overpriced French food along the touristy streets of Paris, go to Bien Bien! read more

Family couldn't decide where to eat, so settled on a standby that always pleases: Thai. The staff here were wonderful -- and made the place a standout! Delicious traditional Thai food, comfortable setting, and wonderful staff. Would definitely go back! read more

If you're in this area, this is a nice little Thai restaurant. I only dined here once but the food was great. The service was amiable and fast. I love restaurants like this because the atmosphere is simple and relaxed, but the food is top notch. read more

As authentic as a casual Thai food one could try in this side of the continent, coming from a guy who have just arrived from Southeast Asia and high expectation. The chef is not shy in mixing the spice to make the food as close to home as possible. kudos! read more

Bien Bien - the store front - Thai Near Me - Paris, 75

The best Thai I've had in Paris and a worthy visit in any other city. I was looking for good Thai and disappointed many times in Paris and then I came here. The vegetarian options weren't on the menu but they've got many. read more

Had the red curry beef and drunken noodle.. the red curry was great. Could use a bit more spices for authenticity but for a Thai restaurant in France it was pretty good and i would certainly go back again. They adjust the spice level in the curry to your desire which is nice. I'm from NY so I've had some really delicious Thai experiences and this one reminded me so much of the restaurants in NY. If you've ventured into the Asian restaurants market here in France then you know it's pretty hard to find good Asian food that isn't heated up in the microwave ... and in display buffet style. The drunken noodle was mediocre. I wouldn't indulge again, or think twice! Such a let down because drunken noodle is one of my favorite dishes. They also don't use the same big flat noodles. They're using some thin variation that I think takes away from the taste of the dish. Anyways if you're in the mood for Thai curry head to this spot. It'll deff quench your Thai desires read more

Even though it was pretty far from my hotel.. thought we would check it out given the reviews. Small restaurant.. Food was decent.. service was average. read more

Excellent food and strong drinks. Give it a shot but you'll probably need a reservation if you want to eat dinner there in a weekend!

Without any doubt that's the best Thai food I ever had! The seasoning is just perfect and the service is wonderful!
