Bahn Thai

Bahn Thai was closing in 8 minutes. I called in an order. I live 6 minutes away. I would have made it in time had I ordered from the right location. The owner was going to go to the other location to pick up the meal to bring it to me. And on top of this, the other restaurant stayed open until I arrived, 3 minutes past closing. If for nothing else...5 🌟 My first time here. The chili sauce is so good I bought a jar and couldn't wait to try it on pizza. And it is freakin' tongue tantalizing. Also a hit on avocado toast. Yes, I did actually purchase two dishes- vegan Pad Thai with tofu and drunken noodles with beef. The drunken noodles were tasty but sober (dry). I've had more inebriated noodles. The beef was tender enough and I have braces. The Pad Thai was perfectly prepared and seasoned.

Bahn Thai is good Thai food and there's really no other way to say it. Each entree is well made, piping hot when served, and the seating is spaciand ample. Be aware that if you order the fire cracker chicken it is VERY hot. A different spice level is used. There is a front patio and somewhat hidden back patio you may discover on the way to the restroom.

Always the most delicious food served to us here. We tend to order the following every time we visit: Tom Kah soup with chicken, crab rangoon and either pineapple fried rice, basil friend rice or one of the specials that they advertise on their chalk board. We have never had a bad dish. The soup is amazing! Order it, you won’t be disappointed.

First time here, and we would go again! The service was quick even though they were fairly busy. Prices are average for Thai food in this area. The food itself was good, I had drunken noodles (in photo) and my wife had Pad Thai. Hers was much better than mine. What I really liked, and this is more uncommon, was how spicy they made it for me! I like my spicy foods to taste like pain and they really came though! I've had many other restaurants around that were underwhelming in spicy, no matter how much I requested it. Another thing is I wish they served you on plates. All they have is plastic to-go containers. Seems wasteful and at this price point (for dining in) a bit under par. Overall the flavor of my drunken noodles was a bit bland and I wouldn't order it again but the pad Thai was

Simply authentic and delicious. If you’re looking for one of the best Thai restaurants in San Diego, this place is it. The noodles are cooked to perfection, and there’s a good balance of sweet, salt, spice and acid. The proteins were tender and were melting in my mouth, it’s that good. It may not look like the portions are big, but trust me, one plate will get you so full. The spice level is also just right. I got a level 2 spice and the dishes were still enjoyable. I also love the outdoor patio and interior decor. It’s inviting, refreshing and just a great place to hang out, eat and take a break from the sweltering heat. If you want a great reminder of the beauty of Thai cuisine, this place is it. You won’t regret it.
