The ambiance is quiet and welcoming during the week. They are stuck in Covid times with the signs but go on it, you won't regret it. Service was very nice and friendly. Food is authentic so it does take some time to come out. This place is some of the best Thai food I have had. I highly recommend giving them a chance! read more

Bahn Thai Restaurant - Chefs Special Double Beef - Thai Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

My wife and I were in the mood for authentic Thai food and decided to check out Bahn Thai. Based on pictures and reviews, it looked like that's what we were going to get. We were sadly mistaken... Our first warning sign should have been when our waitress was taking our order. They were out of the Masaman double beef curry. When my wife ordered an alternate item, our waitress would say they were out of it. They were out of or not serving about half of the items on the menu. This was sort of acceptable, as our waitress mentioned that they were going to close for a month starting the next day. Fine, we were already seated and might as well try other dishes. We ended up ordering beef pad Thai and Panang curry with beef. 30 minutes go by and we still haven't gotten our entrees. Meanwhile, there was a party of 3 next to us that came in shortly after us. They had already received their food. An hour goes by and still nothing. Meanwhile, the party of 3 had already finished their food and we're getting the bill. I went up to the waitress to check on the status of our food. She went to the back and came out shortly and actually said, "I can't really talk to them back there, but they look like they're plating your food now, so probably about 5 more minutes". I was very confused. Why can't you talk to the cooks in the back? Oh well, 5 more minutes we waited, then 10 minutes. Finally, we were starving and decided to walk out, letting our waitress know to cancel our orders. She replied, saying she would let the cooks know. This is the first time I've ever walked out of a restaurant. It was a pity, as I was really craving that Pad Thai. I was baffled that the party next to us, as well as other parties were receiving their food before us, though I did notice most dishes that were coming out were soups. I'm not sure if the cooking staff had issues with other food. A point to note, most patrons who were getting their food before us were white, while my wife and I are Asian. I'm not accusing them of being prejudice or racist. This is simply an observation we made. Needless to say, I won't be coming back. The hunt goes on for a Thai restaurant in Tallahassee. read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside, but the inside is nice and the Pad See Ew (my favorite Thai dish) was phenomenal! I highly recommend this place as the service was very fast and friendly and the food was hot and delicious. read more

Bahn Thai Restaurant - Pad See Ew - Thai Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

The service and food truly impressed us. We enjoyed the fiery volcano shrimp and a refreshing cold beef salad. Just a heads-up on the spice: what was medium heat for me was a bit too fiery, though my wife found it perfect. The ambiance could use a bit of a refresh, and be careful entering the parking lot--the large raised curb island can be tricky. read more

It's a humble mom and pop run restaurant that serves authentic Thai cuisine in Tallahassee. The service was amazing, but be warned that it does take a while for the food to come out. It's worth the wait as you can taste with every bite the freshness and the quality of the ingredients. I ordered that Pad See Ew and they ask you for your desired spice level. This is traditional Thai, so don't be a hero and order the spiciest level possible! I had ordered somewhere between mild and medium, and it had a really good kick to it. I'm sad that I didn't get a chance to go back one last time before leaving Tally, but if given the opportunity I would pay them a visit again. read more

I arrived late (1:45) for lunch but the website said they were open. The sign on the door said they were closed, but there were people going in. I asked if they were open or closed and when I said it was just me, I was invited in. They are suffering from a severe staff shortage! However, the inside was very clean! I ordered Tom Kah soup chicken and it was very good. I also ordered the yellow curry with chicken. The bowl was generous and the rice delicious. The curry had chunks of potatoes, zucchini, onions and peanuts. The flavor was delicious. I usually like my food spicy but because of a silly medical issue can only have things mild for a while. The owner , Ken, was the greeter, cashier, waiter and table busser. His wife (I forgot her name) was the cook and kept things running smoothly. They have one waitress for now and are very understaffed so please be patient. After Christmas, family will be coming in to help them and things will get better. They will even open earlier in the afternoon to accommodate state workers that go to lunch at 11:30. I will be back to this location. I remember the Bahn Thai from the 1980s and look forward to doing business with them! Great food and service with a smile! read more

We arrived and they had a 25 something minute wait, while the restaraunt wasn't even that full! Plus they were out of mango sticky rice. We waited our time, I got Tom kha which was delicious and a good serving, then we got our curries. My duck curry was bright, popped with color and flavor, the fried basil leaves were a nice and tasty garnish, but the duck just tastes like fried chicken (was also expensive for the portion). The red curry salmon tasted fishy. Now onto the hardest part, we paid $7+ each, for the taro and pumpkin custards, they were these nasty, dry desserts that looked like they wanted to be flan, ironically tje pumpkin was topped with mango, when they said they were out. Decent food, not worth the price or wait, especially not those desserts! read more

Bahn Thai Restaurant - This right here was worth all the wait' i also got pad see u, i forgot to take picture !! - Thai Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

Best Thai in Tallahassee, every other Thai place I've tried is lacking! God I hope it's open still.

Well... it was very clean and the staff was very courteous. The spring rolls were deep fried on oil that needed to be changed out. Flavor of the oil was overpowering the spring rolls and samosas. For our taste, the pad Thai was too sweet. read more

I have the opportunity to know friends from Thailand who were kind enough to make me food in the past. This restaurant has the BEST Tom Yum soup I have had in this area and very much worth the drive and effort! read more

Food was great they take spice seriously so order accordingly. Friendly service. Modern decor and ambiance .

The foods here is LEGIT! Best Thai foods in town. I'm here to visit my daughter and we are 20 mins away but will drive there for authentic Thai foods anytime. The restaurant doesn't look attractive from the outside but the foods here are amazing. You have to be patient with the wait bc they are short of servers. If I lived here, I'd work here for foods. Lots of their ingredients are home made or home grown. My daughter and son in law are so happy we found this place. read more

Excellent food, good portion, delicious, hot and fresh. Served quickly in a relaxed atmosphere. I'll certainly be back!

Really yummy! A bit slow but honestly, let's chill people! Would definitely recommend! Portions very generous coming from Sarasota FL. Thank you! read more

Great food and very reasonable prices. We stayed at hotel across the street and the Hotel recommended this spot. We really enjoyed our food Chicken Pad Thai and Pork Penang Curry served Mild. Just the right amount of spice for us. Nice server. We highly recommend. read more

Open the book don't be fooled by the cover guys know exactly what they're doing as far as making good food think they care about what they're doing trying to get it off the ground so they can generate 100 200 meals a day hoping it happens. I love the use of spice that you don't even know it's spice. It's just nice flavor, they just know what to do with the peppers all kinds of peppers not your typical meal is different but the food is good read more

Well,well,well! Bahn Thai has a new location and the food is as good as it has ever been. I stopped going there because of service and food not tasting the same when it was off the South Monroe location. There was once upon a time I ate here at least once a week or every other week. The ambiance may not be up to par but the food was delicious. Chicken basil rolls are crunchy and full of flavor. There was plenty of leftovers. I hope customers can look past the old building and let the food do all the talking. I will definitely be back to try other options on the menu. read more

Bahn Thai is the best Thai Restaurant in Tallahassee for taste and value. Bahn Thai has the most flavorful curries, the largest portions, and more veggies in their dishes than the other Thai restaurants in Tally. They recently re-opened at their new location: 2531 Apalachee Pkwy, Tallahassee, FL 32301. They are only accepting take out orders right now. I am not sure when they will have dine-in service. They only have 5 main dishes that can be made vegan (yellow curry, panang curry, red curry, green curry and drunken noodles) because the cook wants to make the other entrees with fish sauce. However the other Thai restaurants in town don't have a lot of veggies in their curries and the sauces are super bland. It's worth it. Plus they have lots great vegan appetizers - veggie gyoza, avocado spring rolls, vegetable samosas, fried tofu, and vegetable spring rolls. This photo is take-out on our own plates - yellow curry w/ fried tofu, red curry w/ fried tofu, veggie gyoza and panang curry w/ soft tofu. Note: they don't have rice noodles - I added that at home. All dishes come with rice. Also I asked for mushrooms instead of zucchini for the panang curry. read more

Stopped here recently with a friend. The Pad Thai was a bit spicier than I am used to which was OK but not what I expected. I usually order my dish "Thai Spicy" which is met with disbelief in most cases and the question "are you sure?". Yes I'm sure and many Thai dishes are very warm. Others are generally quite tame. The coconut milk curry used in Massaman comes to mind.. anyway, I think you'd be happy with the restaurant, and just be sure to inquire as to the level of spiciness of the dish comes in order accordingly. The service was great and the ambience was quite typical for a small Thai restaurant. Noise level was low.and the seating was comfortable. read more

First timer. Service: 4 stars. They are short staffed and it showed. Yellow curry with tofu: 5 stars. This is very good Thai food. The curry is thick enough and very savory! This my third favorite Thai place. Thai tea with whipped cream: 5 stars. I first tried w/o mixing the cream in and is very good but not too sweet. The cream added that extra sweetness and changed its texture a bit (in a good way). Will definitely repeat. Today is 11/20/19. Service: 5 stars. Very happy service :) Red curry with tofu: 4.5 stars. This is very good. The curry was not thick enough this time BUT and very savory! Lots of tofu! Thai tea with whipped cream: same as before.... goooooood. 5 stars. read more

This place although in a new location has been in Tallahassee for over 40 years. The dishes are still as authentic as you will find. The food and the service are each worth the visit. In my opinion the chicken curry and the Pad Thai "Thai spicy" are the way to go. The right amount of heat and and curry to make you miss Thailand. Not really Thai hot but it as Thai hot as you are going get in the states. Enjoy! read more

Had the Pad Thai pork last night. Was the best Pad Thai I have had in Tallahassee. Highly recommend. Also had the Tom Kai soul with white rice. It was amazing. read more

Curb appeal... not so much! The overgrown landscaping makes the place look closed. But, the food was amazing. The Red Curry was spot on. The Pad Thai was delicious. Service was pleasant and attentive. I was sad when I learned they didn't have Tom Yum or Tom Kha soup available tonight. But, the special wonton soup was a nice surprise. read more

This is one of those hole in the wall restaurants that make some of the tastiest food in the city. I think the best way to enjoy eating here is to just take it as it comes because they know how to prepare these recipes the correct way and customizing it takes away from the overall taste experience. They have nice decor, nice settings, and very very well thought out recipes. Servers take on multiple roles; I recommend asking for everything at once and leaving them alone after that. They will bring you everything you ask for and check on you but you don't really need anything when the food comes anyway as it is a complete thing once it hits your table. You'd be safe asking for nothing extra at all. Overall I love it here. It's simple, sophisticated, refined, and comfortable. If you don't like this restaurant you're the problem. read more

The food is delicious! I consider it in of the best places for Thai food in Tallahassee!

Great food and wait staff. A far cry from the Village Inn that I remember in this location 30 years ago but could use som updates. Overall I would recommend based on my meal. I will be back in the future for sure. read more

I can't believe it has taken me so long to visit this place: I've been missing out! We took Pad Thai and Pad Se Ew to go and it was really great! They were both flavorful and the spice level was perfect. There was also a good amount of meat in each dish (some other places put like 8 pieces of chicken). Also, each meal could really serve as two meals, so it's also a great value! The man taking my order on the phone was very nice and, in person, prompt and respectful. I also really appreciated the measures that they have been taking with COVID, ensuring that their customers and staff are kept safe and that their place stays open! read more

This food is authentic... and fantastic! I love Thai food and this place delivers great-tasting food. My only gripes are that they open at noon. I wish they opened at 11am. Also, they seem to be short-staffed and they frequently operate as a take-out only service. But I still recommend this place for great-tasting authentic Thai food! read more

No one does Thai like Ken. I don't bother with calamari from anyone else. Our favs are Pad Thai (any protein & totally loaded with veg) and Massaman Curry - only on weekend but it's that tender. I would happily have any items on the menu and could drown myself in the soups -- ingredients so fresh you look for the garden they came from! read more

Tallahassee sucks. This place doesn't. All the curries are good. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that they don't let you take drunken noodles as a togo order. read more

The service and the food here is amazing. Now in a new location near capital circle I found this great spot. I didn't take pictures of the appetizers or the deliciously Thai sweet tea but I can vouch how tasty they all were. We had the spring rolls and crab ragoons. They lasted 2 seconds on the plate. lol. Honestly I would really recommend this. It was my first time trying Thai food and the owner made sure it was a great experience. 10/10 read more

Bahn Thai has had quite a few incarnations over the past few years. We were there recently and were told by one person that the owners are new, and by another that they are not new. So not sure what to believe. The food was pretty good, but the service remains a bit lacking. We went with a group of 8. When we arrived the place was only 1/2 full, yet whoever greeted us said that with 8 people the food would likely come out at different times and would likely take quite a while. When we asked why, we were told there are only 2 people in the kitchen: the owner and his wife. We talked it over and decided to take a chance. Contrary to what the server said, the food came out in a reasonable time. We had the Kramer Rangoon, a tofu stir fry, and pad see ewe with chicken. The playing was nice, and the food was pretty good. Certainly good enough to come back. Now if only the service wasn't so weird. read more

I really don't know how to describe this restaurant. The waiter was kind, but the service was slow even though it wasn't that busy. I ordered the beef pad thai and the pork skewers, though the waiter informed me that they didn't have enough ingredients. My brother ordered drunken noodles, though 15 minutes later we were informed that they didn't have enough ingredients. My brother then proceeded to change his order to chicken pad thai. The bathroom was clean. The wait was one hour and nine minutes. However,the food was delicious, and rich in flavor. If you ever come here, you should expect some wait time. read more

This is definitely one of my top Thai places in Tallahassee. It is truly a gem! It doesn't seem to ever be too crowded but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I love knowing about hidden gems like these and I love not having to wait for a table! FOOD: Flavorful. Filling. Delicious. I ordered the red curry with tofu. They make it ''mild" but you are asked how spicy you want it. Although, I don't like spicy food, I got it "medium" and it was delish! A tad spicy but a good spicy...not the kind that has your lips and tongue on fire and reaching for a glass of milk. The portion size was enough for two meals although I asked for some more rice to take home and that wasn't a problem. SERVICE: The server greeted us in a timely manner. She was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. ATMOSPHERE: Casual although there is a "casual upscale" vibe on the inside. Nicely decorated. Quiet. Comfortable. Family oriented. read more

They haven't upped their service! The waitresses are nice enough but the kitchen needs help. I love the food here but I ordered over 40 minutes ago and they were not busy. Come on people. Came in again 2-2020 and the food was wonderful. I had Tom Kai soup and red curry was fandamntastic . At least this time they had a sign saying there may be delays due to lack of staff. I had good service until I was ready to leave. I like coming here but wish they had consistent service. They turned people away today. read more
