    Thai restaurant in Waverly (33rd street) was Bawlmers first Thai Restaurant. It quickly became a must visit place for the hot and spicy seeking crowd (myself included). 40 years later it is still a must visit. Great food! Comfortable space. New owners used to run Peerces plantation and provide great service.

    Let me just say, that this restaurant is a true staple of Baltimore. It's been around ever sense I was born and has managed to prepare delicious Thai cuisine the entire time. Our waiter, who might have been the owner, was incredibly kind and attentive. Great sense of humor too. There is also really convenient parking in the back. This is an absolute gem of a restaurant and deserves every ounce of support it gets from the community.

    I drove by this place for a long time without ever stopping in, and wow am I glad that i finally did. The service was a 10/10 and the owner is so friendly. The inside is beautiful from the color of the walls to the paintings and decorations. It's a perfect dining environment. Thai Restaurant is a true gem in Baltimore and i highly recommend to everyone.

    N-10 - delicious!

    The best thai food in the city is decidedly at this little hole in the wall place - the owner is beyond kind and welcoming, and anything you order will be fresh, authentic, and delicious. We've only dined in, but there's an option to take out as well. Their appetizers are excellent - I'm fond of the steamed dumplings, and the papaya salad is also excellent if you're looking for a bit of spice. I love noodle dishes, and their pad see ew cannot be beat - their noodles are delicious and carmelized and the veggies are fresh and crisp. My boyfriend had their drunken fried rice and one of their curries and loved both of them. Finally, the dessert is NOT to be skipped - the fried cheesecake is amazing (and I don't even like cheesecake that much), but the standout for me was the sticky rice with mango. Beautifully presented and the best mango I've ever had. With beautiful decor, parking, and the perfect amount of attention during your meal, Thai Restaurant is a must visit.

    Fried Cheesecake - amazing

    Thai restaurant is a great option for Thai food within walking distance of JHU in the Waverly neighborhood. There's a parking lot around the back that's easily accessible via a small street Brentwood ave. The owner has been serving great Thai food since the 90s, and his enthusiasm for his food is contagious. I love spicy food and always order my meal at arbitrary level "5" with extra thai chilies on the side. The curries, noodles and rice dishes are all excellent. You can't go wrong with the pickpaw fried rice with pork or red curry. For dessert, the fried cheesecake is delicious and balanced nicely with whipped cream and fruit. Unfortunately, the portion sizes are smaller than standard and slightly pricey. Furthermore, the owner's son seems disinterested working at the restaurant and service can be slightly awkward due to his abrasiveness.

    Best papaya salad I had in a long time

    Run, do not walk. First time ever to this spot and I'm glad I came. Me and my roommate were running errands before our upcoming vacation, and we were in the Waverly section of the city. So he suggested why not Thai, I'm always game for Thai food. I wanted to keep my eating light, so we opted for the following, the papaya salad, which was the best I've had in a long time. Some Thai restaurants either make the dressing either too spicy or too tart. The dressing was just right, right amount of heat, and not too tart. And the shrimp were really a nice size. Also the summer rolls were really delicious and fresh,you could really taste the basil in these, nice and clean on the palate. We kept the dishes pretty simple with pad Thai and drunken noodles, also delicious. The best so far in the city by my standards. The drunken noodles with pork was so delicious and savory, *insert Homer Simpson drool. I'm def returning again and I will bring my boyfriend, he really loves Thai food. So if your in the Waverly section of the city, stop in, the service is good and food is delicious. You will not be disappointed.

    This restaurant has been open since the 1980s, and has the look and feel of a traditional Thai restaurant with over 30 years of service. It's a respectable business with excellent food. We stopped here for lunch and shared 3 dishes and 1 appetizer among the 4 of us and we had left overs. I love supporting local businesses and especially family owned businesses (not sure if this is family owned -- but it's certainly local). I rarely rate a place 5 stars, but I felt this place, it's history, location, food, and service is up there. I would keep going back to this place if I lived in the area but since I don't I'm letting you all know that it's worth the try. Give it a try!

    More like a 3-1/2 star. Not the best Thai I've had but most was good and the portions were a nice size. The salad was actually pretty big. We were served by an older Asian gentleman who was perfectly attentive! We had the shrimp/chicken crispy spring rolls, the papaya salad, Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, fried cheesecake, and the mango and sticky rice. (We were very hungry.) Food came out at a good pace and everything was attractively presented. Truly, the only weird thing was the fried cheesecake--kinda strange, not my thing. We ate in the main dining room which was cozy but needing a bit of an update, maybe paint over that unappetizing green wall paint?

    I'm so happy to live near this excellent Thai Restaurant! It's a small family-run establishment that has been local to the Waverly neighborhood for quite some time, so I was happy to support them for our weekend Thai fix. Delivery arrived a bit late so the restaurant must have been busy this night, but the food was truly well worth the wait. Also everything arrived piping hot, like seriously we had to wait for it to cool down a little --amazing! We ordered two drunken noodle entrees, one with chicken and the other with scallops. Both offered generous portions of chicken and scallop, which is always appreciated. I will add that the scallops were also cooked very well, not super rubbery or overdone at all. The basil sauce was deliciously sweet and savory and not too spicy. We also ordered the fried spring rolls and fried wontons (kiew krob). The wontons were interesting. I'm not sure what the filling was because the menu didn't say --I think it was meat but it almost tasted like chickpea! Regardless, it was all very tasty and perfectly crunchy thanks to the small holes that were cut into the tops of the paper boxes. This ensured that the fried goods wouldn't get soggy on their trip over to us. I can't express enough how much I love the consideration that went into this gesture, and it made a big difference in the quality of the meal! It is clear they love their craft here at Thai Restaurant and I'm happy to be a customer again in the near future. Highly recommend!

    I ordered level 2 spicy masaman curry and mango sticky rice. Loved them! There are pineapple in the curry and the curry was so delicious. Mango sticky rice is fresh and the plating is so nice. I did take out, the server was nice and efficient. Definitely gonna come back. The interior of this restaurant is really Thai looking forward to try dine in when pandemic is over!

    Very reasonable prices.

We entered shortly after 4 PM, which is when they open. There was no one downstairs when we entered, so we walked upstairs. When we walked upstairs, we asked the man at the bar if we could be seated because there was no one downstairs. He looked a bit flustered at first, but still ended up seating us in the same spot. I sat before near the window, which is exactly what I wanted. He immediately brought us ice, water and menus. He pointed to the specials on the menu, and gave us some time to look. We were the only people in the restaurant. Within a few minutes, he came and took our orders. Then, we waited.... For like 25 or so minutes... for the appetizer. And honestly, when they brought the duck rolls out, I was super disappointed. These were not the duck rolls I remember. These were tiny, underfilled, mostly full of the wrapper themselves, and lacking flavor. Additionally, when I placed my initial order, I asked for all of the condiments/sauces to be brought out. I asked the server again when the rolls came out, and he didn't bring them out until I asked a third time when the entrées came out. When the entrées did come out (ga tiem and crab fried rice), they left a lot to be desired. Ga tiem: bland. And to make it so bad, the vegetables served with it, were not cooked in the sauce as they normally are. They were served on the side and we're not cooked all the way. I can't really eat broccoli, so I swapped it for green beans, but I could pretty much snap the green beans in half because they were still so undercooked. Crabmeat fried rice: the fact that they cut up like three full scallion stems, barely cooked them, and tucked them under/at the base of the rice is crazy. They weren't even cooked long enough to release flavor. Also, to be in Baltimore, the amount of crab was a little embarrassing. Definitely should have been more. Overall, the rice wasn't very flavorful. Thai tea: good! Not too sweet, not too milky. You want to know what really made me mad? I asked for soy sauce, and they brought those super cheap packages that just look like black water that the cheap Chinese restaurants provide you when you get carry out. Those packets literally taste like nothing. I have been to very few Asian restaurants in my life that provide that type of soy sauce, especially when you dine in. It doesn't taste like soy sauce at all. I was incredibly disappointed. And considering the fact that I had to ask for these sauces three times, I was even more disappointed. We spent about $62 on the items above. Would I say I got my moneys worth? No would I say that I enjoyed this visit as much as I enjoyed the last? Absolutely not.

From the moment you walk in, you can tell it's a place people love. great energy, great food, and great staff who make you feel welcomed. We went on a Saturday night and it was packed, which is always a good sign. It was a bit loud, but nothing unbearable or uncomfortable ... you could still enjoy your meal and conversation. The atmosphere felt lively and fun. I ordered the Thai fried rice extra spicy and my goodness, it was incredible. The flavor was rich, perfectly seasoned, and the spice level was exactly what I wanted. You can tell the food is made with care and authenticity. I also ordered the pomegranate martini and it was absolutely amazing. It had the perfect balance of sweet without being overwhelming, especially if you're someone who doesn't love super strong drinks. It was refreshing and paired really well with the meal. Overall, Bodhi is definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to. Great food, great staff, and a great overall experience.

    Figured I would leave my yearly review update as our last couple visits have been a bit…read more.. suboptimal. With all the competition in the area, we don't find ourselves coming here quite as much. Their drunken noodles are not as flavorful as the competition and often come out gummy. That said, the Tom Yum fried rice is still killer, and if we stick to our favorites they will give any competition a run for their money. The real reason for the loss of a star is the patchy service. We gave up eating there in person years ago and now focus on carryout. Typically we show up at the time our online order tells us to, but more often than not, the food isn't ready. Not the end of the world, we usually just go for a walk around the block and by the time we are done with that, it's ready. What drives me crazy though is that on a recent visit, while we were walking, we get a text that our order is ready, we come back and it STILL isn't done, we have to keep waiting. TLDR; sometimes the food can be slow to come out and the information about when the food will be ready isn't always accurate.
