Went for the first time last night. They “ran out” of white rice??? My order was placed more than an hour before they closed and rice doesn’t take that long to make. I don’t understand running out of white rice.
My partner picked up the order and the woman told him she gave house fried rice in place of the large white rice with my order. Someone else in my household had ordered house fried rice and there was only a single container. It’s possible they gave extra house rice as it was in a different container than rice usually comes in, that piece is unclear. What is clear is that they thought it was appropriate to substitute rice with shellfish for white rice and didn’t bother to even check for allergy issues. You can’t substitute rice with shellfish for white rice! That is terrifyingly inappropriate substitute and anyone with allergies should avoid this place at all costs.
My parter went in to pick it up and hadn’t realized house rice has shrimp. I had to go back in because my meal was useless without white rice. Magically they were able to produce white rice in 2 minutes when I complained and said I needed rice or my money back. They brought out a large container, like I had ordered, tucked it in the bag and sent me on my way. When I got home it was as only a half off a container of rice. Cool love when restaurants just lie repeatedly and hide they’re not giving me what I ordered
Horrible experience. The food wasn’t close to good enough to be back.
If you have allergies, they tried to substitute house rice with shellfish for white rice without making sure there were no allergy issues. Please be careful going here.

I've been going here for about 25 years and have never found a better place to get Thai food. The curries are delicious, the pad Thai, the coconut soup, and especially the peanut sauce. And all of the staff are friendly and efficient. It's AWESOME!!!

I always get takeout because the space is so small but the food and pricing are fantastic. This is the only restaurant I know of that hasn’t had price gouging since the pandemic. I highly recommend it

One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to — a secret hole in the wall. Best pad Thai, vegetable spring rolls, and chicken satay! I only wish they would bring back that ginger soup they used to serve each customer before meals during lunch.
Vegetarian options: Great vegetable pad Thai!

I’m reluctant to leave this place a review because I want it to remain my secret. But this is the best restaurant in the United States. Everything about it is 5 stars.
We enjoyed a quick dinner here. The food was good. They scrambled to find menus, and the waitress seemed to be a bit overwhelmed, but everything happened fast, as we asked. Chicken Satay was good, but the pour some white sauce on them, which is not common, as some people prefer no sauce, or deep themselves.

Bangkok Spice simply has the best Pad Thai anywhere. A couple of important things to note when eating any stir fried noodles:1. Be sure to stir/rotate the noodles on your plate because the sauces tend to collect on the bottom. This is true whether you done in and essentially if you take it home.2. Make sure you eat the chicken in the pad thai right when it comes to your table, (or as soon as possible) otherwise it can dry out. The chef knows the secret of stir-frying the ingredients in the correct order which is critical with Pad Thai, otherwise it will be very dry. For example, did you know the crushed peanuts have to be added last? They soak up the sauce and cause the noodles to dry out. If you're ordering takeout, make sure to ask for the peanuts to be separated.Try the Tom Yum soup. It's excellent.The service is always friendly and prompt. Overall the regular pad thai and basil pad thai are the best I've ever tasted. The curries are all outstanding, especially the Masman.
Dietary restrictions: The chef and waitresses know what's GF and what isn't.
Large size portion with good spice levels.
