    Bahn Thai Express.  Fried squid with homemade sweet and sour sauce and some Alaskan beers.
    John S.

    This restaurant was stuck in the middle of a rather beat up strip mall. It's unassuming and looks deceptively foreboding from the outside. However, the hostess offered pleasant service when we walked in. We ordered a fried squid appetizer with homemade sweet and sour sauce. The peanuts in the sauce offered just the right crunch to kick up these appetizers a notch! We drank an Alaskan Icy Bay IPA and an Alaskan amber with our main dishes. My wife ordered the Kai Soi and I had the Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodle) with beef. This wasn't spicy enough for me, so I added some hot oil and that did the trick. The Pad Kee Mao paired extraordinarily nicely with the Alaskan amber, which turned out to be a very tasty beer. The food was good here and the plates were large. So bring an appetite. I paid a total of $71.30 for our meal, since we also bought a man who was down on his luck some delicious lunch.

    The cashew chicken is the best in town. Shrimp pad Thai is amazing too. The lady's are so friendly and fast. Definitely recommend this place and all three of there locations !

    Sweet pea stir fry with chicken - no flavor and little sauce at all
    Emily H.

    Admittedly, I prolly went in with my expectations too high... but was pretty disappointed overall in our takeout last night. The biggest problem was just a lack of flavor. We both ordered entrees (drunken noodles and sweet pea stir fry respectively) "spicy" - but neither had any heat to them at all. In fact, they had very little discernible flavor at all. Mine came with almost no sauce at all (which is a shame as I usually like to use that to flavor my rice). The chicken was okay - nothing special and at least his noodles weren't mushy -- but other than that there's not much more to say. We did enjoy the appetizers okay. The fried shrimp was delightfully crispy... I had just anticipated it would come in spring roll wrapping, not be literally just deep fried in batter. The Thai soup was good - a light yet flavorful soy sauce broth w a generous amount of chicken. At the end of the day, I just expected more... especially from a Thai place in Fairbanks with so much other great competition.

    If you're looking for great affordable Thai food, this is an excellent spot! This is one of my favorite spots to order to go. They are super quick and the food is always excellent. They give an excellent amount of food for the price and the food is always super flavorful! If you decide to dine in, be prepared to hold your drink, as the location is right next to the laundromat and the tables often experience some shaking! Great food! Great prices! Get it to go!

    Delicious halibut egg rolls and chicken fried rice! Very friendly and fast service. I live a couple streets over from this place and I will definitely be visiting often.

Thank you so much Koi, Bambi and team! :) Ambience: Nice decor with musical instruments, interesting paintings that remind you of Thailand and they have paid good attention to details on their tables, mats and the menu. Casual chatty vibes too. All good. Restrooms: Clean and well maintained. Parking: No issues at all. Plenty available!

Ordered Pad See Ew with Beef, Gaeng Pa-Nang with Halibut, and Pad Plick Khing with Halibut. Although I thought this was very good, I didn't think it was better than the other Thai restaurant that I had been to earlier in the week. Food was just missing that little something that would make it truly elite. I will give credit to the Mango Sticky Rice though, that was great. Staff here were really friendly. Took care of our orders quickly because we got here right before the kitchen was about to close. Also filled our water quite a bit. Lemon Grass is still pretty good, glad I tried it.

    Came here as one of our friends were craving hot Asian food, and it was one of the only Thai…read morerestaurants that were open past 8pm. The staff in the restaurant were nice and we were able to get seated right away during dinner hours. The decor inside was very simple and casual. We ended up ordering chicken satay and egg rolls as appetizers, which both were decent. For entrees, we ordered pineapple fried rice (which you have to ask them to add pineapple to the fried rice item on the menu), beef massaman curry, tom kha gai soup (one with coconut milk), and drunken noodles with chicken. All the entrees were also pretty decent and flavorful, although I did find most of them to be on the saltier side. The meat in the massaman curry did also taste super soft but almost in a canned meat kind of way. We were also served water but everyone in our group felt like the water tasted weird, almost like there was some kind of cleaning supply or chlorine type after taste. We saw that they put lemons but there were no lemon taste in the water. We were all concerned by the taste and ended up not drinking any of the water (despite the food being salty and we really needed some). Overall, not a bad spot outside of the water situation, but not a spot I'd necessarily recommend given the price of dishes and value.

    It's pretty empty during the weekday lunch time. Food was good. I got the beef pad see ew and…read moreshrimp tom yum soup. They are both pretty good. I like the pad see ew noodles particularly. They put a lot of beef, but the beef is a little on the chewy side. The tom yum is a bit salty for me. It would be better to eat with rice instead of drinking the soup on its own.

Because we were the first few in the door, our entrees arrived sooner than others who came after. I was disappointed with the Thai iced tea, it lacked tea flavor and was more of condensed, excessively sweetened milk drink. I could only finish 1/2 and poured out the rest . We ordered 3 dishes and the portions were generous such that we had leftovers the next day. 1. Veggie Tom Yum Soup - was OK but I've had others with better flavor and wouldn't order this again. 2. Chicken pad Thai was the best dish of the bunch but it was very skinny rice noodles. It tasted better as next day leftovers after the flavors marinated overnight. 3. Pork green curry was watery and not green but looked more yellow. We had yellow curry at a Thai restaurant days earlier and thought that curry tasted more authentic and wasn't watery. Overall nice staff with average food.

Alone it was kinda bland but with the sauce it was actually very good. I ordered the pad Thai with chicken. Honestly the flavor is very good but it was very unfortunate that the chicken and tofu came out very dry. Had it not been for that I would have given my dish an 8.5/10 but because of it unfortunately I can only give this a 6/10. My buddy got the pad kee ma ( drunken noodles) with chicken and again the chicken was very dry. It was also just kind of a bland flavor. Just a little disappointing. If they maybe added some garlic and a little more sauce I think it would have really elevated the dish. One thing I really like was it seemed like all the sauces were house made which is fantastic. I would still come back here to try some other food. But hopefully they can just get the meat to not be so dry.
