    The Food is great we order it every time we're in town, when ordering here please keep in mind they are a cash only establishment so I would recommend using an atm at your bank to avoid paying atm fees. They do have an ATM in the building if you decide to use it.

    Drunken noodle

    I'm sorry. I had such high expectations for this place and was excited to pick up my food but i was so let down. The food is not good at all. It's not worth your money. I don't know where all the reviews came saying it's delicious, a great hole in the wall, and it being authentic. Maybe I went on a bad day or I somehow stumbled at the wrong restaurant (even if the name says Bamboo House and address is all correct). But boy I had never had such a disappointment of Thai food. The drunken noodles were not spicy at ALL. The flavor was bland. The noodles were not even drunken noodle noodles. It was really just some type of pasta noodle. Flavor was not there. We also had the pad Thai. The noodles were all clumped up together. Spent $23 on lunch, only to throw it all out.

    Food was very good, the fried rice did lack a bit of flavor but other wise everything was delicious. I took off one star because the place is not very clean so could be a bit off putting. As long as you can over look the ambience then you'll be ok. Wr vacationed in Thailand and it honestly felt like an authentic Thai restaurant. I'd recommend and we'll be returning.

    Gomuku ramen

    The place has great curry and ramen like dishes. The staff is really friendly, but wait times can be rough depending on the time of day. Recommend calling ahead and taking out since seating is limited.

    A part of the menu. They have a variety of choices. Great Thai food. You can choose between beef, pork, chicken, or shrimp. Great specials.

    I could eat at this restaurant everyday! The food is so amazing. The Bamboo House serves Thai food that is the best I have had yet. I would strongly suggest calling it in as it may take a while to get your food. Usually between 25-30 minutes. Make sure you bring cash and if not they have an ATM located within the restaurant. The only downside is the space is limited, however the food is still good. Currently they changed some of their prices, but the food is still reasonably priced between $9-$12. The customer service is good, sometimes during the busy hours they can be aggressive. Nonetheless, it's a good place to have lunch. They are closed on Mondays which is upsetting because I could use that as a pick me after a rough Monday back in the office. In closing I would recommend trying the food. It is really good.

    Pad Thai was excellent!!!

    Was not worth the long wait. There is only 1-2 cooks, one of which only wore socks while she cooked. The yellow curry was not very flavor.

I strictly stuck to the sushi menu. 1. Avocado and cucumber salad- This was good! it was in chunks and not sliced thin like other places.. it was slathered in spicy sauce and with a little soy sauce it popped! 2. Sushi Appetizer was great! The rice was warm and seasoned perfectly. The fish selections were fresh and tastey!! 3. Poke bowl was awesome... made it the way I would like- the only thing i didnt like was that they put crunch in the spicy tuna and salmon proteins.. not of fan of crunch so I will know for next time. For a local place, the food was above what I expected. They were really nice inside and the place was super clean. I am so glad i stopped in for lunch today. I would definitely drive around the base and skip the sushi places in Wrightstown to come here! Didnt take pics because i was too hungry

    I ordered three dishes, 2 being a combination platter which they said that I can have free soup…read morewith each combo. I also Ordered vegetables mei fun ( noodle) with tofu and hot sauce. They charged extra for the kung bao sauce and Tofu, but only used soy sauce. I can understand extra charge for tofu but I said replace one sauce for another. Anyway what should have been 2 free soups since I ordered the combo was an over charge. They charge extra sauce but never added the sauce into the dish. This has already left a bad experience. The soups didn't taste right either. I can't put my finger on it but it just didn't taste right. Something was definitely off. Anyway, I normally don't go out of my way to write a negative review but the experience was just horrible. I must say that my past experiences at this restaurant was good but I feel that they may be under new management. Anyway, on a positive note, they were getting their parking lot paved and the dining area looks clean. It's unfortunate that I will go out of my way to other eatery instead of this one in the future.

It was the only thing she'd eaten. Here's my review dish by dish. Each of these things were perfect a year or two ago. Curry chicken puffs w peanut sauce. Oily or soggy, not crispy like before. Peanut sauce is still the best. Chicken sate was way overcooked, burnt in places, and inedible. Pad See Ew. Noodles could be firmer but the beef and broccoli were good and generously portioned and the sauce was balanced and delicious. Drunken Noodle noodles were too soft and the shrimp was mushy. Shrimp should have some snap. Chicken was ok. Overall not up to their previous standard. Pad Thai shrimp wasn't very good, noodles too soft and shrimp potential past its prime and mushy. Thai iced tea was great. I'm really sorry to post all of this, hopefully they get their old chef back. Believe it or not, I'm rooting for them!

She still seated us, but it seemed like it might be a good idea to reserve! The restaurant is a bit small but cute. While we looked at the menu, the host brought over two Thai teas on the house. That was the start of the amazing hospitality! I felt like we walked into an Auntie's house because she proceeded to give us dumplings and mango sticky rice on the house! She seemed so excited to share the food with us! Portion: 5 The portions are appropriate and with so much food, we ended up taking home some too! I can't believe that she gave us half of our meal on the house! I love the way the dishes are served too! So many sauces came with the dumplings. Flavors: 5 The dishes are bursting with flavors! I feel like even though some of the dishes are the same as other Thai restaurants, they're more flavorful here. The noodles came with amazing wok chi too! Too bad this restaurant isn't closer to us because we'd be ordering or going there often!

They do a lot of takeout business which is good and it's always nice when my husband and I go and sit inside because it's never crowded but I'm sure they have their moments tonight. We went in for some pho and appetizers and it was pretty good. Our bill ended up around $64 before Tip. The service was excellent the places clean the young men are very vibrant and nice and at your back in Call and aiming to please every customer. We had some questions because my husband got the spicy beef foo, and it had a nice zing to it. The soup was very flavorful. I got the round medium rare and it was delicious. It had lots of flavor and lots of onions. Maybe next time I might ask them to go lighter on the onions, but really it was no problem to pick a couple of them out I put Thai basil in the soup and it had a really nice flavor. We always look forward to coming back and trying something new for appetizers. We did start with tempura shrimp once you get six pieces and they were pretty good. they have a little fancy sauce with them and we got the cheese wonton crab Rangoon's. That was delicious. I didn't even need the sauce and I got about 8 to 10 pieces of that and then the Vietnamese egg rolls we got four of them for $10.50. It was a delicious meal and very calm and relaxing just what we needed on a rainy day.

The restaurant isn't too big. It's in a big plaza which is nearby costco so that's a perk.

Our staff were always looking out for us, and making suggestions and recommendations throughout our entire meal, and even helping us with some tips to better enjoy our meal (they saw me sweating in response to the Thai spice). Definitely made this a top-notch experience. Ambience here is great! Love places with *real* greenery indoors and a lot of natural light, like this place, and seats and tables were spread out sufficiently such that there was a nice background chatter without feel too infringed upon by other conversations. We ordered a good variety to share. The spare ribs and the glass noodles dishes were amazing! Everything came out as ready, but it was on a good cadence such that we were enjoying things as they were ready, hot and fresh. I'm no expert on legitimacy of flavors and dishes, but honestly this feels like the most legit stuff I've had in the Thai wheelhouse in a while. To boot, even though we said no to dessert because we had other plans, they came with a candle on a plate to still share birthday wishes. A nice touch! Definitely a fancy occasion kind of place in my books, but I'd definitely make a return trip on another occasion!

    KenScale: 8.25/10 Visit: April 2026…read more One restaurant in Philadelphia that I had wanted to visit for a long time was Kalaya, which was featured in the Chef's Table documentary on Netflix in 2024. I was moved by the personal story of the chef Chutatip "Nok" Suntaranon in the show, and of course my wife Jun and I would never say no to some delicious Thai food. On our recent trip to Philly to celebrate our anniversary, Jun and I finally got to check out Kalaya (which is named for the chef's mother) on a rainy Sunday for lunch before driving back home. We were very pleased with the lunch at Kalaya, which in our mind really showcased the Thai spicy flavor well. The menu at Kalaya features Southern Thai dishes inspired by the chef's family history. The colorful display of the dishes stood out throughout our meal, but more importantly we also really liked the spicy flavor that felt genuine and soulful. The cute flower-shaped Shaw Muang dumplings with ground chicken were highly recommended by our server and the kick from the Thai chili set the right tone right away. We were also fond of the poached shrimp and cabbage salad with coconut cream (Yum Kalum Bplee) for the delightfully crispy texture. For the main dishes, we ordered one stir fry and one curry. If you have to order just one dish at Kalaya, I can't recommend the colossal crab stir fry with egg (Pu Pad Pong Karee) enough. Served with jasmine rice, this dish offered complex flavor of spicy, salty, sour and sweet that was quite unlike anything I had encountered in a while. As Jun and I were savoring this awesomeness, I wished that I could've eaten this every week. The goat and lamb curry (Gaeng Pae), served with pickled cucumbers and coconut turmeric rice, was also impressive, with rustic curry broth that suddenly hit my tongue with spice blend. Despite that powerful impact on my palate, I couldn't stop myself from enjoying the curry, especially with the coconut turmeric rice that neutralized the curry's spicy kick somewhat. We also shared a side dish of stir-fried local mushrooms (Hed Pad Kratiam) that was solid as well. We were running out of room in our stomach after cleaning up the savory dishes, so we settled with ordering a Thai iced coffee to go before hitting the road. Not surprisingly, Kalaya is a very popular restaurant in the Philly dining scene so getting a reservation in advance is essential. I was a bit nervous on our visit as we were running rather late (by around 30 minutes) from picking up our car from the parking lot, yet the restaurant was gracious enough to honor our reservation. The bright and lively dining space offered quite a fitting background to the character of the dishes. There is a full bar with Thai-inspired cocktails and concise wine list designed to complement the Thai spices well. Kalaya definitely lived up its hype as one of the most important restaurants in Philadelphia; Jun and I were glad to have visited and would be more than happy to come back for our next visit to the city.
