Love the friendly service and deliciously magical food 😍😊. Much gratitude, highly recommended . Fantastic warm inviting setting and relaxing music.
Ate at Baan Thai on a visit to Hamilton. The restaurant was lovely and warm with a great atmosphere, pleasant background music and plenty of room between tables. The staff seated us immediately and were extremely pleasant throughout the night which we appreciated.
We ordered three starters, spring rolls, stuffed mushrooms and tom kha gai. All three were delicious - the unique stuffed mushrooms in particular. We asked for the tom kha gai "Thai spicy" and were not disappointed.
However we were quite disappointed with our mains. While the Choo chee prawns and panang gai were delicious, they didn't taste as authentic Thai as we were expecting. The yum neau (Thai beef salad) was VERY fishy tasting, it could have used far less fish sauce and more lime juice in its place. We ordered a mild in this dish and we did wonder if a medium or hot would have balanced the fishy taste. I also noted a lack of coriander (generally a staple in this dish) and asked if we could have some extra for the side but were told the kitchen had run out - quite disappointing. The pad Thai was delicious but much sweeter than usual, however despite not being traditional Thai I actually did enjoy it.
Overall the experience was pleasant, but the fishy mains were very disappointing. I would go here again, although next time I would order a medium rather than a mild (may hide the fish taste better) and make sure they aren't out of coriander!

My favourite restaurant in Hamilton, affordable and the food is fabulous. Meats always very tender, seafood dishes have plenty of seafood. Restaurant is clean and cosy, lovely soft Thai background music, authentic and interesting to look around.
Nice meal here at the Victoria Street branch . Restaurant nice and clean however lighting needs to be brighter as place is a little dull and dark.
This is our favorite Thai Restaurant .The meals and service are great. The menu is extensive so something for everyone. We dine here often and have never had a disappointing meal.
There is never a problem to find a car park close to the restaurant.
What an awesome restaurant! The meals are great and the customer service is fantastic. We have been there twice, once in October and then last week, and they remembered us! What a great place.
I recommend the Thai Green Curry, the wife had this. We are mild eaters and this still had a pleasant kick
This review relates to the Baan Thai in Dining Lane, Bryce Street, Hamilton. Not the branch down the road in Victoria Street. The former is not in Menu Mania yet.
Food was excellent (probably five stars). Service was very good. The restaurant was new and the atmosphere very good. Will definitely go again.
One comment though. I had a deal voucher that excluded certain things e.g. seafood. Also the voucher only allowed for "House" wine and beer. They were aware that we had this voucher. We didn't read the fine print and ordered a seafood dish and non house drinks that I had to pay for at the end. Now I take FULL responsibility for this and did so when paying (without fuss). However, I think the restaurant has some moral obligation to remind the consumer if they are not keeping in the terms and conditions of the voucher. The did not do this, and a cynical view would be the reaped the financial reward as a result. What do you think?
I simply love this place, Wanda and the staff are wonderful and the food is delicious!!
Ordered the Pad Thai with chicken, great taste, fresh; also have a wide drink selection, had a nice beer to go with it.
Lovely host Pimandee, relaxing music, nice atmosphere.
Can't fault service or the food. Will definitely go again
Wonderful atmosphere and a place we frequent regularly. Meals are decent portion sizes and very tasty. I had Bhan Thai Steak and really enjoyed it, my wife and in-laws had chicken meals which was a bit on the dry side.
Service was excellent and very friendly. Definitely a place to visit and fill up the tummy with yummy food that is also very healthy.
Crispy Satay chicken was superb. Wow
Warm ambience and open till late so a good place to have dinner. Quick service and fresh good which is a very important thing. Table service available so you just go there and they'll come and take your order. Very sweet and kind staff. We asked for options as I am a vegetarian. They do have good options for vegetarians and do mention them your diet so they'll take care of it. My main course dish was good enough for me to take home as well. So it's good quantity. Thanks you for your warm service. I'll visit again.
This restaurant does not deserve it's current rating. The staff are pleasant and welcoming. They are also accommodating if you have dietary requirements like I do. The food is great with good portion sizes. Definitely give this place a go. I assure you it's well worth a visit for moderately priced great Thai
Food was amazing !!!
When we paid, we were charged different prices to the menu we were given....
Reasonably good. Nice food and OK service, missing the wow factor.
Food can be slow to arrive and with larger groups this could be a problem.
The menu is extensive, probably too much on the menu when a lot of the items are similar. The Baan Thai specialities weren't the standout dishes I was expecting.
Always amazing. Pick up order was ready on arrival stayed hot all the way home! Food is delicious, whole family including wee ones very satisfied. Thanks for another beautiful meal Baan Thai. :D
I have tried other Thai food places in Hamilton and Baan Thai is by far the best. Very fast service, Delicouse food and always greeted with a welcoming smile. One day I ordered take away and waited in the car and they even brought it out to my car! So kind :)
The food was Amaaazing the first time then we went back 2 days later. Asked for mild instead if very hot. Takeaway.
Service - got my order wrong and had to come back.
Food - lots of it and the fish cakes and the spring rolls were great as usual, but the salads were flavorless. The first time had all that Thai basil and that spice if Thailand.... was completely absent the second time.... different chef maybe? We were quite disappointed. Packaging was very leaky and leaked on my car seat.
We will come back again for a dine in experience because the first yime was soooo God, but oh they were doing so well until this time....
