I wanted to share a review because I was genuinely surprised to see Siam Thai Bistro so quiet on a Friday night! The original owners are back, and every meal I've had recently has been absolutely delicious. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the food has been consistently 5-star quality. I had the Pad Thai with chicken, which I ordered with extra vegetables, and it was fresh, flavorful, and made exactly as requested. I had the opportunity to speak with one of the owners and learned that for a period of time they were working at another location while someone else managed the Bradenton restaurant. Unfortunately, many customers had experiences that didn't reflect the quality and service the original owners are known for. Now that they're back, they are working hard to rebuild and remind people just how good this restaurant can be. If you enjoy Thai food--or if you've never tried it before--please consider giving them a visit. They are also very quick with takeout orders, and Uber Eats and DoorDash will be available soon for even more convenience. 5763 Manatee Ave W, Bradenton, FL 34209 * Located in the ALDI plaza (Old Winn Dixie plaza.) 941-213-9296 Let's show some love to a local small business that's working hard and serving great food. There is no reason this place should be empty on a Friday night! read more

This was one of the best Thai restaurants we've been to! It's a small family run business and their service is top notch! However, the prices were a bit on the higher end and the portions were smaller than what we are used to with Thai food but it was worth it. It was our first time trying Tom yum and Tom kha soups. Both were delicious but the Tom yum was soo good. The panang chicken curry was also really delicious. The spice was spot on and there was a lot of chicken which was appreciated. Overall, great experience and we will definitely go again if we are ever in the area! read more

This place has absolutely fantastic Thai food! I've probably eaten Thai food and at least 30 different restaurants across the country, and this is among the very best. Tonight we went out and had five or six different things among us and everything was absolutely outstanding. It's a small cozy place with excellent service and I recommended highly it! read more

The people are friendly Food ok not our cup of tea :( can find better keep driving ... Thx read more

My favorite Thai place around!!! I've tried other places and nothing comes close to this- taste, service, and atmosphere!

Ordered the Patai chicken and it was scrumptious. Very good taste. Always happy with the food here. A wide variety of different types of flavors. Make this your go to Thai restaurant!! read more

Ate at the place once and it was good enough to go back a second time. However this time, both of us were violently sick within 30 minutes of eating there. I knew something was up so I checked only to find out the place has been shut down 2 times by the inspectors for live roaches. Nice lady, but you need to keep the bugs out. Bring shut down 1 time for infestation is bad, but learn from it...twice?? shouldn't be allowed a third. I think it's time the state requires the health scores of each restaurant posted on the front door. read more

Stopped in for lunch as a first time visiting. Unfortunately they are over 1/2 hour away from our home, but if you're out at the beach or Robinson Preserve, this is a stop you should definitely make! The store is small but decorated well - gives a cozy feeling- and the service was exceptional! The menu is extensive- so it's hard not to order WAYYY more than one can eat - and we wound up ordering takeout for dinner after this delicious lunch! The lunch , if you dine in, includes a small soup and vegetable egg roll. Both were excellent. We started with lettuce wraps - crispy noodles, shredded chicken and fresh crisp lettuce. Delicious! My lunch ginger stir fry was full of fresh crisp veggies, aromatic ginger and fresh pork slices. The egg fried rice was flavorful and delicate. Incredibly good. Great value and excellent food! read more

The food was delicious, my family are from Louisiana and this food was amazing. I brought my son with me and the owner is so sweet, appetizers came in less than 2 minutes and our Thai fried rice came about 5 minutes after. The ambience was amazing and it was a great experience! read more

Yes absolute yes from me. This thai restaurant might have become my top spot but of course there could be some recency bias.... Either way!!! This curry is exceptional. Spice wise this Thai spot does it right because Thai food is typically very watered down into terms of heat and aroma but not here. No no these people are closed to the real Thai experience so to my fellow heat lovers you have been warned. Food is made fresh to order and the curries are all unique in their own way. The spices are different in each one and the coconut milk just brings it all together. The service was fantastic as well , this was a very pleasant experience all around. The owner may is also really passionate about what she does and you can taste that for sure. Would come again in a heart beat read more

Marvelous local Thai resturant! Execellent food and superb service. The owner/ chef, May actually came out to introduce herself, and went over her menue with us to assist in picking the perfect dish for our individual taste. And when we first bit into our meals there were big smiles around our table. Siam Thai Bistro has a warm, friendly atmosphere with soft asian style music in the background that keeps their patrons returning time after time. read more

Used to go all the time and then the quality kind of dropped off Hope they get it back soon. They had some unique and tasty deserts I hadn't had before. read more

Great food and service. The pumpkin curry is perhaps the best we've had. The Pho' is different that we prefer but not bad. Just different. The crispy rolls are amazing. We've been 3x now and will be back! read more

Do yourself a favor and visit for the best authentic Thai food- portions are large and all ingredients fresh! Thank you May for a wonderful evening! Btw, we were all out of towners and got lucky- worth your time to explore here! read more

Thai Bistro was our first stop on vacation and wow were we surprised! Not only was the food amazing, the customer service and hospitality were incredible! We told the owner that we had never been here before and she explained her favorite recipes with enthusiasm and incredible detail. The owner is passionate about making the food / each plate/ delicious and fresh. Impressive hearing about where she finds the very best ingredients and we loved hearing about the legacy of some of these recipes. When she brought out our food, she also brought a plate of spices, all homemade. Best egg drop soup I've ever had and the pineapple fried rice in a grilled pineapple was amazing! Highly recommend! read more

We had the best Thai food I think we've ever had at this place. Red Curry...amazing! All apps and salads were super fresh! Thai donuts were flaky and delicious. Fried banana and banana sticky rice were authentic and yummy . The owner came and described the authentic banana sticky rice preparation. She took pride in her restaurant! read more

Extremely consistent, with some very talented chefs in the kitchen. Top self Thai dishes that are always freshly homemade and full of very tasty ingredients. The restaurant is clean and the service is good. The ambiance could be improved but their main focus is on the food & customer satisfaction. What more would you want? Two BIG thumbs up from two local experienced diners. read more

Consistantly good Thai food. Very friendly staff and manager. Nothing too fancy but plaesant place to go for Asian food.

Exceptional service, amazing food and a hidden gem in Bradenton. The pad Thai and yellow curry were out of this world filled with flavor. The yellow curry was coconuty, creamy and rich. 5/5 we will be returning! read more

This Thai restaurant is excellent! Authentic, fresh and delicious - as good as any NYC Thai. Pork egg rolls were great. Larb Gai is excellent. The pineapple red curry duck is out of this world.

This restaurant was highly recommended by my aunt and uncle, so we went for dinner one night. Holy cow! I highly recommend the chicken cashew nut pad Thai! We had some edamame as an appetizer as well as a few pork egg rolls. We devoured them! Our group also enjoyed shrimp pad see ew and the yellow curry with tofu. My wife and I have been in the hospitality industry for years and are quick to judge servers...the service was fantastic, too. We will definitely be back next time we visit! read more

The food is actually good at Siam Thai Bistro. My issue is with the pricing, especially as compared to the prices on this (Yelp's) site. I ordered dinner for myself using the menu and prices on this site and the total should have been $21.60, a reasonable amount. However, when I picked up the food at the restaurant, they charged $34.80 for it. When I questioned the amount, they claimed the prices shown on Yelp were those charged by the previous owner of the restaurant. At best this is a situation that must be rectified and at worst is a great, but questionable, way to entice potential customers. Anyone seeking to order anything from this restaurant should clearly ask and understand the real prices before ordering. read more

Good vegetarian offers. The food is very tasty and the portions are amazing. Unless you are extremely hungry, you'll have leftovers. I suggest you eat with chopsticks, ask for them if you need to, it makes you slow down your eating and allows your stomach to alert you that it's full. The Fried Rice with steamed tofu is out of this world, as are all the curries (I'm a curry fiend, though). Best when you eat in, because the food is hotter when it arrives at your table, but it's just as delicious when you carry out or have it delivered... Or eat it the next day! Hubby loves the Chicken Pad Thai. It took me forever to get him to try anything else. It's still his go to dish. *They are good at substituting soy sauce for fish sauce in any dish at your request. Sorry, no photos at this time read more

My favorite Thai restaurant still my favorite !! Through a smooth transition of ownership the Siam Thai still pumps out wonderful Thai standards and now the Bistro has expanded their menu and offers nightly specials that just enhance the already fresh and tasty appetizers ,entrees, rice and noodle dishes that make this quaint bistro top notch Thai !! read more

Picked garlic beef stir fry lunch special (bland and watery sauce). Also the Tom kha chicken soup. (Rubbery strips of chicken and watered down soup). The worst Thai I have had, especially for $20 during lunch. read more

Pretty disappointing. The fried rice was made with broken rice and was more like rice pilaf, the pad wood sen was super dry and bland, and the larb salad was salty and lacking any lime or cilantro flavor. The pickup person was super nice but that's really the only good thing I can say. read more

Came because of other reviews. Delicious pumpkin curry. Ordered drunken noodles but was disappointed that the noodles were like pad Thai noodles. Not the wide rice noodles. Would go back for the pumpkin curry though read more

We just had a family dinner and the Owners were so gracious and kind. Mrs. May explained the menu and was very accommodating. We ordered a variant of foods from the menu and everything was made to oder, fairly fast and delicious. The spices on the side were a great touch. I highly recommend this small family Thai Bistro. read more

We love this restaurant. its authentic , fresh, and made with fresh ingredients. I always seem to get the pad thai with pork and my wife gets the green curry with tofu. Both are excellent. Try the larb also if you get a chance. It's fresh tasting and very refreshing on a hot day. You can make lettuce wraps if you have a head of iceberg at the House. The people who own the restaurant are super nice Also. read more

Soooo good! Previously tried other Thai restaurants but this has to be the best in Bradenton. Everything was made to order and fresh! The flavors were exploding and exceeded my expectations. We had the lunch special which included jasmine or fried rice and we opted for the Tom yum soup instead of the egg drop soup, but was also included. We added on the fresh rolls w shrimp. Cannot wait to be back!! read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Thomas and May the very nice owners while picking up my dinner order.

The seafood fried rice was a hit and the Drunken Noodles with Chicken was amazing. read more
