    Made fresh - best Thai food we've ever eaten!!! Staff were amazingly helpful. Everything they suggested was delicious: Let it Be Thai is now a planned stop off Route 15/Merritt Parkway anytime we are in the area (and we live in MD). Stopped twice this week and love, love, loved the Tom Kha Soup, Let it be Thai Curry with Chicken, Pad See Ew with crispy pork belly (we also had it with beef and it also was really good). We also really liked the Stir Fried Rice with shrimp, the Boat Noodle soup with chicken (a slight kick, with excellent flavor), and the Spring Rolls (fried). If you like spice, the Panang Curry with chicken was also excellent. The star of both meals, however, was the dessert: Pandan custard buns! If I didn't live 10 hours away, I'd be here every week!

    Let it Be is a hidden gem. The owners are so friendly and offer one of the most authentic and quality Thai food experiences that I have ever had. The best Pad Thai that I have ever had! It feels like being invited in for a home cooked meal. This is my undisputed go to spot when craving some delicious Thai food.

    It was very mid. I am not sure I would return. But to be honest the New Haven area really doesn't have great Thai restaurants.

    The best pad Thai I've had in quite awhile! Good curry and very nice owners of a quaint spot! Will be back!

    We were a group of 20+ people the day after Thanksgiving…read more We called to make sure it was OK to load up. They accepted and the service was really good. The food was excellent and hit the spot after all the food the previous day. (Satisfying different taste buds). Lot of orders around the table, with drinks. They managed it really well. (Given the lethargic start to the day after Thanksgiving everywhere) Great spot.

    I'm glad I revisited Roishi, having only dined there once during the first few weeks of their grand…read moreopening. At the time, I found the ramen competent and the interior pristine, spacious, and modern. Returning for a second visit, I'm happy to report they have withstood the test of time, maintaining high standards for both food quality and cleanliness. To provide context: when Roishi first opened, it felt like ramen shops were everywhere. Fast-forward a few years, fewer shops remain, and unfortunately, many of those survivors just don't stand out to me. The mid-range sushi scene has proven equally unimpressive. Aside from high-end establishments like Hachiroku Handroll Bar, or the outstanding Gohan in Southington, most mid-range joints disappoint with mediocre quality and a lack of creativity. Many may start off strong in quality, like Niu Sushi in East Haven or Sayori in Orange, but eventually their standards slip over time. In the current food scene in Connecticut, finding a restaurant that excels at both ramen and sushi is a rarity. While I enjoy the Spicy Miso at Akatsuki in Hamden, their sushi remains lackluster. Conversely, from what I recall when they initially opened, the sushi at Takumi in Branford impressed me, but their ramen has disappointed. This is where Roishi shines. Perhaps my previous disappointments at other establishments have made me quick to judge, or maybe I simply caught Roishi on an exceptionally good day. Regardless, our last experience at Roishi has won me over, and it has officially become (for now) my go-to for a satisfying bowl of ramen paired with fresh, creative sushi rolls. It is clear the sushi chefs put effort into curating their menu and making their rolls look visually appealing. Our server was pleasant, professional and attentive without being overbearing. While the menu would benefit from rotating specials featuring higher grade ingredients, the restaurant's ability to maintain standards and consistency is a rarity, and is the primary reason I will continue to return as long as they continue to do so!

It wasn't too busy for lunch and we were seated pretty quickly. The restaurant is nicely decorated and there were plenty of tables inside and out. Parking wasn't too bad. We all got the bento box and some appetizers. For the appetizers we got fried tofu and dumplings. Both were delicious. I wanted to try something different and decided on the pumpkin curry. It was creamy, nutty and warm. I am glad I picked it. The spring roll was crispy and the salad was fresh. My coworkers got the mango curry and peanut sauce. They both enjoyed their meals. Can't wait to come back and try more dishes.

    Haven't been to this place in a long time so I got dinner to see how things have changed…read more Thankfully, things have changed for the better. Nice little sit down restaurant with a decent amount of seating, friendly staff and excellent food. What I'm happy about is the fact that their portion sizes are bigger than the last time I was here. This place has always made impressive food, but dishes were small and prices were high. This place is still more expensive than their only competition in town, that being Thai Spice, but at least you get more food for your dollar now. Thai Spice still has better value and is very good in its own right, but Bangkok Blvd has the crown for flavor. My tofu pad Thai with no egg was very impressive. Tofu, noodles and vegetables were all fresh and high quality. Sauce was delicious and I liked the texture of the noodles in particular. Just enough onions and scallions to enhance the flavor without overpowering. My pad see eaw with no egg has nice thick, chewy noodles and a savory sauce. I didn't care for the leafy veggies because they were bitter, so I ate them first before enjoying everything else. Still loved it though. It's up to you; Thai Spice is a nice little hole in the wall takeout spot that has lower prices and very good food, but Bangkok is on another level with their flavor if you're willing to pay a little more.
