The food was so delicious! It’s my second time eating here. And the guy at the counter was very kind to me. He let me finish my meal before closing and gave me a to go water. I really like their menu here.

After arriving on time to pick-up my dinner. Was asked if I minded waiting another 10 minutes as he “always” added 10 minutes for the pick-up. Then after waiting 15 minutes was told they had run out of the main ingredient of my dish so they could substitute another ingredient. I asked after waiting 40minutes for an order I was originally told would take 25 minutes if they were discounting the dish they became very nasty on how dare I ask for a discount. They had accepted my oEder, asked me to wait 50% longer and then were flippant they didn’t have what I ordered and I should accept whatever they wanted to substitute. I had tipped 10% for basically no reason but guilt as they had done nothing for me. When I asked for a full refund they acted like I was wrong. They had 2 chances to say we are low on this ingredient- once when I order and another when I paid-and waited extra time. I did not ask for the entire meal to be comped - only the one dish they couldn’t filled. So I asked for a full refund and they lost $ . Their entire attitude was not acceptable. Then the WM behind me told me to get out of his way as he wanted to pick up his food while it was still hot. Fun night trying to support a local restaurant.

Love Thai cafe. Would have ate here tonight, but Cartana account doesn't work, trapped in infinite loop create account multiple times never worked.

One of the best lunch specials in the city! It includes your generous lunch entree, a spring roll, and a light rice noodle soup. You can easily order online or call your order in. I love that they include eggplant in their green curry, as well. I'll be ordering on the regular!

Disappointed! Drunken noodle tasted like cheap lasagna noodles. A bowl full -lacking vegetables and chicken. Spice came correct but you could choke on the only vegetable I found-carrots. Crab ragoon was over fried but had good amount inside of the 5 pieces in an order.#SpoiledbyBaanbistro

Sign said closes at 9pm walked in at 7:50 and was told we could not dine in because they were closing at 8:30 instead. Not even cool 40 minutes before they close and won’t accept a table.

Ordered DoorDash. Asked for duck sauce, soy and hot mustard as 'special request' on two of the orders. Got an eye dropper amount of soy and NO hot mustard. Why is hot mustard like asking for gold?
I went to Thai Cafe for a lunch meeting with some of my coworkers. We were seated immediately and brought some water. I knew from the start that I had to try their lunch special because of how great of a deal it is! I ordered the Thai Fried Rice with pork and asked for it extra hot. My coworkers thought I was crazy!! I know Thai Hot is too hot for me, but usually, when I get Thai food, I get it medium or hot and am still not satisfied with the heat. This time, I wanted to get it right!! The soup came out first. I will be honest that I don't exactly know what kind of soup it is: some type of broth with scallions at the bottom? It was a good start. Not too heavy, but enough to get the meal started. Very soon after, the rest of the food came out. The rice was accompanied by salad and a spring roll. I started with the salad, and I was very pleased with it! Sometimes Thai restaurants use a dressing that is way too heavy on ginger. This one was a perfect blend and complimented the lettuce and carrot very well. I ate the entire salad. Next, I tried a bite of the spring roll dipped in the sweet sauce next to it. It was still super hot and steamy, but delicious! I moved on to the Thai fried rice next! It was PERFECT!! The pork was cooked so well, and the blend of vegetables in the rice was delicious. The spice level was great as well: enough to make my nose run, but not so bad that I can't eat it. I like pouring the spring roll sauce on my fried rice, and it was even more delicious after I did so. For a lunch special, it was a great amount of food. I ended up taking some leftovers home which was enough for a side to use with another meal. This one is taking its place as my #1 Thai restaurant near me. It was pretty quiet which made it a great place for a casual meeting, and we were there for a couple hours and never felt rushed. I would love to try for dinner sometime, but the lunch special is so good of a deal I am sure I will be back for it soon!

Ordered the panang and it was like a soup. Super thin which was really disappointing. In the description it's supposed to be thicker than the curry and I'm not sure if this panang sauce could get any thinner. Had to add flour to try and fix it.

I ordered carry out to eat at the hotel. It was very good and I'd definitely eat here again. I got an order of the spring rolls and the Spicy Bamboo (Pad Ped). I ordered the spicy bamboo Thai hot. I was expecting a good kick, but man this heat was beyond what I expected! However, even as hot as it was it still had great flavor!

So apparently some pretentious white boy decided to buy this company from authentic Asians and turn it into his watered down, Americanized version of Thai food. The noodles are NO LONGER hand made but store bought, the sauce is watered down, little to NO veggies in the vegetable pad Thai (which I always loved when they had authentic people cooking authentic food), and of course, little to NO seasoning at all- the staple of white people cooking!!!!!

THE BEST GREEN CURRY I'VE HAD IN INDY. They have re-designed the place and it looks great. I wanted to order other stuff off the menu but the green curry was also too good to pass up. My wife always got drunken noodle and loved it. Check this place out!
I’m hooked on the basil fried rice.
