About Bird & Buffalo

Bird & Buffalo is a cozy restaurant serving delicious Thai cuisine with a Southeast Asian vibe. The menu includes dishes like Gai Gra Prow, a minced chicken dish with basil and a fried egg, which is described as "simply divine." The restaurant is praised for its good cooking skills, with meat and noodles cooked well. There are some dishes that could use more flavor, as the seasoning sometimes lacks the depth of traditional Thai ingredients like fish sauce and chili. The atmosphere is cozy, with great music playing in the background, making it a pleasant place to enjoy a meal. The staff is friendly and ensures guests feel welcome, even when the place is quiet. The restaurant offers a variety of dishes, including Kao Piak Sen, Lao Chicken Noodle Soup, which was tender and comforting, and the Roti and Stewed Beef in Peanut-Red Curry served ‘taco style,’ which was a favorite for many. The Roti with beef curry was especially memorable, with the beef melting in the mouth and the sauce full of sweet and creamy peanut red curry flavors. The papaya salad was large and flavorful, with an optional salted crab add-in that was delicious. The restaurant's location is very walkable and accessible by bus, with street parking nearby and a small lot shared with neighboring businesses. Overall, Bird & Buffalo is a great spot for tasty and authentic Thai meals, especially if you're in the area and looking for a cozy place with good food.
