    Bua Siam Fried Whole Trout Fish
    Fateha A.

    4/5 "Bua Siam Fried Whole Trout Fish: Fried whole trout fish topped with fried onion, pieces lime, dry shrimp, ginger, lemongrass peanuts and special spicy sauce." Got this w/o peanuts. Got a bunch of cilantro & lettuce instead of fried onion & dry shrimp. The fish was good, very crispy & flaky. They gave 3 sauces: 3/5 a soy sauce packet 3/5 lemon onion oil- way too much oil, a different base instead of oil wuda been better, tastes great otherwise 3/5 special spicy sauce- hella spicy for me Excellent service, employee was so friendly even tho I was just picking up. Wish we had time to dine in, but they were closing soon.

    Spicy curry chicken panang and crab Rangoon with a Thai iced tea
    Christine S.

    Was craving Thai food and it was my first time ordering chicken, curry pug and crab Rangoon's from this place and I must tell you it's out of this world! Best Thai spot thus far!

    Egg Rolls
    Leslie B.

    Ordered here for lunch over Door dash, not sure if that was the reason why my noodles were dry,but they didn't have much flavor. I also got the egg rolls there were ok. Last for desert I got the mango sticky rice probably the best part but still underwhelming, the coconut glaze was a little watery. Over all I've had better Thai food in this area. Might have to try it fresh from the restaurant.

    This place is under new ownership and I must admit the changes are great. I love the colored walls and decorative changes. I was pleased to see the old fountain was gone too. The food is still good if not better and the service was great.

    Is this chicken. It's so dry and hard. I knock it and it makes noises.

    I like mee krob And get it often at places. Today I had Uber Eats bring it. As Om Home fighting cancer. First don't package something sticky with tin foil. Some of the aluminum is stuck. Can't hear it with the foil. Now the few proteins are so unbelievably dried if I tried to bite I would break a Tooth. I mean like dog bones. The two shrimp and a few pieces of I think Chicken. It was inedible Haven't had the soup yet I ordered. But so far this has to be thrown away.

    Tom Yum Noodle Soup Thai Iced Coffee (that is what I call a LARGE size)
    Denny H.

    First and foremost, they do true Thai level spicy So if you are even remotely on the fence, I would highly suggest you go milder and add spice as you need! I ordered the Tom Yum Noodle Soup and it was delicious. Personal preference, it might be just a tad sweeter than I like but overall it was great! All the ingredients added A wonderful mishmash of flavors and textures so it broke up any possible monotony of flavor. I ordered a mild just to be on the safe side and boy am I glad I did! It was just on the border of a little much. I usually go for medium in many other spots. I would also take an initial scoop of soup by itself to prep yourself so you don't cough on the fumes hahaha. It was delicious and a decent size! I also ordered a large iced Thai coffee to go with it and Now that is what I call a large! It was delicious as well! I drink some of it today and poured some of it in my thermos double walled bottle to enjoy for tomorrow! Service was great! She was so so very nice! Had an overall great experience. Hole in the wall style, but I kind of like that!

    Ask the Community - Bua Siam

    Is it halal?

    No it isn't if you don't eat food prepared on surfaces that had pork cut up on it. If that doesn't bother you, there are plenty of vegetarian dishes or dishes that can be made vegetarian.

    Does this place have gluten free options? Thanks!

    Curries and rice noodle dishes are usually gluten-free. Just ask them for dishes that don't contain soy sauce. Papaya salad and fried rice with deep fried catfish all shredded up are gluten free.

So I placed the order over the phone, I also got chicken fried rice for my wife, chicken basil for my nephew with no rice and my dad wanted the Suki Yaki noodles. Everything was at medium spicy except my nephew chicken basil since he can't eat spicy. I was told it would take about 20 minutes and I live close to this place. When we arrived in the afternoon, we got the parking in the front of the restaurant. I say they accept credit card now because before it was cash only. You just have to spend at least $10 minimum to pay with a card. They made our order quick because we arrived early but it was ready. They packaged the food great and there was no leak. My sister loved her duck noodle, my mom loved her boat noodle, my dad loved his Suki Yaki, my wife enjoyed her chicken fried rice and my nephew like his chicken basil. I would come back here again since my family loves this place.

    Food 3/5 - Ordered southern fried rice, it was "okay." It wasn't as flavorful as I expected…read more Protein in this dish included only 2 pieces of shrimp, some mussels, one piece of fish fillet, and squid. There was a lot more squid pieces and it was too rubbery with little flavor. Service 4/5 - Service was good, about what you'd expect. Ambiance 4/5 - Ambiance was good, about what you'd expect.

Kevin was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the ordering process. He took the time to guide us through the menu and even made sure we didn't over order. Thanks to his recommendations, we had the perfect amount of food for everyone, with just enough leftovers to enjoy later. The food was absolutely delicious, and everyone at our gathering loved it. What really stood out, though, was the exceptional customer service. It's rare to find someone who genuinely wants to make sure your event is successful instead of just selling you more food. I hadn't been here in over 15 years, and it was wonderful to see that both the quality of the food and the outstanding service have remained just as great as I remembered. I recently moved back to the area, and this experience reminded me why I loved this place. We'll definitely be back soon to dine in. Thank you Kevin, for making our gathering so easy and enjoyable!

We usually order a soup (combination soup, or spicy coconut soup with chicken), a noodle dish (pad see ew or pad thai), and a dinner plate (grilled chicken, satay plate).

Since this place popped up first and had "Thai BBQ" in the name, I saw BBQ and thought cool let's try. Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience from the very beginning. The service was not good. The server and I had trouble understanding each other, so there was definitely a language barrier making it harder to communicate. She also didn't seem familiar with the menu since she couldn't answer basic questions. Just ordering was very frustrating. The tables didn't look properly cleaned either, which I should have taken as a red flag. As for the food, it just didn't do it for me. The peanut sauce was extremely watery. The garlic short ribs were honestly the worst part. They tasted undercooked and not good. I took one bite and I didn't want any more. We ended up eating mostly rice just to feel full. The shrimp dish was also disappointing. When we asked for something spicy, we were basically directed to the chili already on the table. The dish itself was mostly green beans with maybe 6 or 7 pieces of shrimp, and the shrimp tasted very basic. I also ordered the spicy beef combo plate, which came with steamed rice, but it wasn't spicy at all. I had to add a ton of chili just to get some flavor. The beef was probably the best part of the meal, but even that was just okay. Overall, I regret not checking the reviews beforehand because it definitely reflected the experience we had. I don't see either of us coming back.
