Bangkok Happy Bowl Thai Bistro and Bar

Didn't bring my pho. Many items unavailable. 2 menu but only 1 given. Slow service. Basic curry and noodle dishes were good. Sushi not so much

I ordered Tom Yum soup and Pad Cha Lamb. It is the most authentic Thai food I’ve ever had in the State! Really enjoyed everything! And the price is comparably cheap in

This used to be one of my favorite places in Aspen but it has changed recently - just ate here and the curry was undercooked, fried rice was tasteless and also kind of undercooked although it was covered in oil. Upset stomach after. Would not recommend

The Pad Thai was good although the sauce was pretty sweeter than expected. The service was fast, ambience was wonderful

Nothing like the thai food I have eaten. My friend and I were so happy to try it, very below our expectations. First and last.

Outdoor seating has a very nice atmosphere. It was a beautiful day. Our waitress was very sweet. The prices though, kind of not okay. Kids menu was $12.95 with no descrption with 2 items and no drink. Weird. I really wanted Pho, but it was $20 minimum and I could not justify that for the quality of food and fast service kind of vibe feel you get. So I got the chicken lunch special fried rice. Portion fine for lunch, but when the Drunken Noodle off the regular menu came out it was the same portion size. What?
The presentation was good. Food was dry for me. My hubby liked his. The Tom Kah was okay. I guess I have been spoiled by my local Thai place. We got our ticket and they included an 18% gratuity for themselves. I normally give 20%, but that is my choice to give that. Just taking it is a different story. I saw on the menu where they talked about taking 18% for groups of 6 or more, but we were 3 people. This place is a mess. Never coming back.

Kid-friendliness: None. they have 2 items.

- the service was provided very fast and the staff was welcoming
- ordered chicken red carry with white rice; it was delicious and the taste very Thai. The portion of the food too big; be aware when you order.
- like the place; very simple and reminds me of Thailand

Overall, very good experience and highly recommended

I don’t even know where to begin, but this was by far the worst Thai meal I’ve ever had. The food was tasteless, and everything seemed off. The pad thai was soggy, bland, and completely lacked the usual punch of flavors. It tasted more like a poorly microwaved dish rather than something freshly made. The green curry? Don’t even get me started. It was watery, with barely any spices, and the vegetables were overcooked to the point of mush. It felt like they had thrown random ingredients together without any care.

To make matters worse, the spring rolls were greasy and tasted like they'd been reheated multiple times. The dipping sauce was watery and flavorless. Even the tom yum soup, which is usually a safe bet, tasted like bland, over-salted broth with chewy, overcooked shrimp.

On top of all that, the service was extremely slow, and the staff seemed uninterested in the customers. It took forever just to get someone to refill our water. Overall, a massive disappointment—save your money and avoid this place at all costs!

We walked up and after about ten minutes of sitting there and watching what we assumed (and were right) the wait staff sit at the bar on their phones. Finally someone served us and they were completely out of every sushi item, we ordered some other dishes including the gyoza and it was most definitely frozen and just heated up, they were so so watery inside and had basically no flavor. There was water just sitting on the plate. They were also super cold in the middle so we sent them back. Overall food and service was so bad and I really regret spending my money and time here on our trip into Aspen. Definitely don’t recommend going here.

For $20-$30 I'd expect excellence/high quality tasty dishes. We ordered the Pad Thai and Pho as those were the most likely safe choices being a Thai restaurant and you can't really mess up Pho especially if you just use the pho packet for broth. Pad Thai was bland and the pho was bland and not even boiling hot. I'm from Denver, theres alot of great places for Pho and Pad Thai. I might be spoiled, but this place is a rough one to swallow. 1 star for effort and that's being generous. Don't even know what their specialty is as a Thai restaurant especially if you cant make pad thai. My wife and I make Pho and Pad Thai at home, we know the flavors we make the 8hr broth. Just feel taken especially bringing 12 family members with us. The outdoor scenery is nice with the birds flying around if that helps.

A very below average Thai restaurant, where server notes down one thing and the chef cooks something entirely different.

Noodles were super chewy and had bland flavor. Additionally we ordered the coconut rice upon the server recommendation which was just a tad of coconut milk and a load of sugar, which the server hyped it to us opposite.

After all this they have the audacity to add self gratuity of 18% which is mandatory only for party of 6 or above. When asked they said they didn’t realize we are only 4. Shameful.

I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go to this restaurant, maybe go to City Market and get frozen food.

The food was really tasteless and just before you are thinking of the tip, they tip themselves by including 20% gratituty in the bill. So awful??

I like this place for take out, but have been disappointed in their quality of food. I ordered a yellow curry and it was basically broth and onions. Don’t recommend.

Each season I find a new dish to love. Highly recommend the Panang Jay curry, Thai laksa, and Drunken Noodle.
