“ATTENTION: Please be patient with the staff. They're a very small operation but are incredibly busy and trying to keep up They've got a small space to work and and can barely squeeze by each other when cooking so that combined with the number of orders is reasonable justification for longer wait times. I'd suggest ordering 30 min to 1hr before picking up to save some wait time during peak hours.With that out of the way, their food is so good and worth the wait! Portion sizes were plenty to be full too! The team is kind and watching them work I could tell they were clearly do the best they could! I would love to see them expand later! There is a small dine in area, but if it's peak meal times it can be a long wait, but it's understandable.Thank you to all the employees there! I see you barely able to move around back there and so busy. I appreciate you all!“
“Oh my goodness!! Absolutely delicious! Clean establishment, parking was easy, and the service was good. The food was the best I have had in a while. I ordered larb, spring rolls, and ginseng coffee. I love spicy food and the larb was truly spicy and full of flavor! I will return here for sure!“
“Lanna Thai is our new favorite Thai restaurant! Ate dinner there last night and it was great. I had the chicken pad Thai and my husband ordered the yellow curry with chicken over rice. We shared and both were great. Apple, the owner, was so friendly and helpful. The place is small so you may not want to go during busy times but take out is an option as well.“
“Had a very nice lunch here with my cousin. The food is quite authentic. Had spring rolls, Pad Thai, and Laab. I was so excited they had chicken Laab, most places just have pork. You can even get tofu Laab here. The spring rolls had rather a lot of lettuce but very fresh.My cousin and I hadn't seen each other in a long time, so we were there quite awhile. Staff was very patient with us, though did not offer us any refill on water ?Dietary restrictions: My cousin likes this restaurant because it works well with her dietary restrictionsParking: They have a parking lot in back but it's unmarked and hard to find“
“We order pickup from Pad Thai around 3 to 4 times per month and absolutely love this place. Excellent flavors, nice sized portions and overall very good value for money.Vegetarian options: Most dishes that we've tried work well with tofu.“
“This is a must go establishment! My favorite is the vegetable fried rice, medium heat...can’t go wrong. The service is top notch. The owner, Tiffany, takes pride in providing a pleasant dining experience. Super clean and inviting environment.“
“THE BEST! Lamphai (maybe I'm spelling her name wrong) is the sweetest lady. She has run this restaurant on her own for 28 years and makes excellent food. She was so friendly and showed me all the herbs that she uses for her dishes. She piled my lunch buffet plate high with beef, chicken curry, pork, wontons, and rice, and checked in to make sure it wasn't too spicy and that I'd had enough rice. Stop by Taste of Thailand for great food and support this long running, woman-owned business!“
“First I have to say that the food was just wonderful! I had Thai food before at another place and it was just nasty. I was reluctant to try this place but glad that I did. Very good food! my boys are picky eaters and they loved their food. This place is very cozy and very relaxing place to eat. The staff is very friendly, we will be back!!“
“Wow! The food is amazing. Yes, it's a bit pricy, but quantities are generous, and the freshness can't be beat. We had the little shrimp dumplings, crab fried rice, green curry, and spring rolls. Spices were on point, we both loved the use of fresh herbs in the dishes. Highly recommend!“
“My husband and I had the Laos papaya salad (4/5 spice), dried noodles (3/5 spice) and beef laab (3/5 spice). The food was amazing!! The spice and flavor was on point! The service was excellent!!The owner was very personable and met our needs to the best of his abilities. My husband wanted raw laab, but he couldn’t serve it raw, so he made it medium rare.The atmosphere was casual but a little small; if I would’ve brought my family there, it would’ve been difficult to seat everyone.Lunch hour. Reasonable price. Parking was not an issue.“
“This place ranks among the best Thai food I have had in the U.S. The chef commands a mix of spicy, sweet, umami, and acidic flavors in a way that only the bestchefs can.-To drink, I got the Thai iced green tea. The slightly more astringent green tea paired really well in this drink, which was not overly sweet as Thai iced teas can be.-We got the #33 shrimp salad, which was perfectly limey.-#43, the Yen Tha foe, was truly one of the best soups I've ever eaten. The depth of flavor in the broth, the silky-gushy noodles, and the marvelous textures combined for something I'd like to eat for my last meal.-Pad eggplant was silky and umami-laden.“
“First time ordering from Ban Thai Restaurant. We did take-out and took them about 30-40 mins to get our food ready.Customer service - my husband went in to order and he felt the service was not the greatest, but it is what it is.I am always searching for the best drunken noodles or better known as Pad Kee Mao. When I saw that Ban Thai make Pad Kee Mao, I had to give them a try. So far it’s good. The flavor is different from others that I’ve had. Their seasonings is their own. But I enjoyed it. The noodles were soft, just how I like them. The only downfall is their pork was a little bit on the drier side. I rate it 4/5 stars. Wouldn’t mind ordering it again tho.Their Bangkok Spring Rolls were okay. I order it with pork. Maybe next time I’ll do their shrimp instead. The sauce was okay too. I had to make my own for me to enjoy it more. They really fill it up with veggies and herbs. I love that it was packed with veggies haha. I rate it 3/5.Beef fried rice was bomb!! My husband thought it had too much black pepper, but once I mixed up the fried rice, you can barely taste just the black pepper. I love that they cut up the beef in thick slices. It’s soft and flavorful. Not too salty. It’s perfect. I rate it 5/5.The cream cheese wonton was not a hit for my little family. My kids love cream cheese wonton, but this wasn’t it for them. It had a good amount of cream cheese filling. But the wrap was more on the soggy soft side. Usually the cream cheese wontons are crunchy. But if you like your wraps soft then maybe this is for you. I rate it 2/5Chicken wings were also not a big hit for us. It’s your typical basic oven baked seasoned with salt n black pepper chicken wings. I mean that’s what I tasted when I took a bite of it. I wanted more flavor to it.Overall, I wouldn’t mind giving this place a second chance. Maybe dine in next time and try their pad thai, pho, and curry selections.“
“My husband and i decided to try this place this weekend and we do like the food we had ordered. My favorite dish we ordered was the pork padthai. If you had laothia restaurant padthai. This probably the closest tasting dish i had in a long time and you can add spicy to the dish. The pork padthai was very good. My 2nd favorite was the beef brisket. We added medium spicy to it and it was delicious. It wasn't too sweet, the favors of the beef brisket balanced very well. The raw laab was good too. We did no green onion and no bitter. I like my raw laab still tasting fresh and favor balancing. If you're in the area, i definitely recommend stopping at this place if you're looking to have some good foodParking: We went during lunch time so parking was hard to find.“
“I like eating some of the foods in their menu. Some foods tastes good. However, I wouldn't go there for pho, but I would go there for cooked dishes that's served on plates, because those taste better than the pho's. They have good customer service over there when I went.“
“First time visit and I had the impression to order pho, but the menu selection was very exciting. The organization of the menu is real easy to read. I must say the prices of the appetizers and entrees are affordable. Which helped to order more than 1 item to explore and enjoy something new.I ordered the Pad Thai with Tofu. The taste was on point and a great portion. Ended up taking half of the Pad Thai to go. The limes really helped me enjoy the noodles and the sauce selection at the table was helpful. By the way - the tofu was cooked perfectly. Crisp on the outside, but soft on the inside. I would order this again in the near future.Someone please invite me.I also ordered Oyster Chicken Wings and it was crazy. I couldn’t believe how crispy each wing was and the sauce was delicious. Next time I visit Kong’s Kitchen I’ll make sure to ask for 2 orders. ? These wings are the best in Saint Paul hands down.The service was decent. No complaints about the food whatsoever. So excited to come back.“
“Great place for some tasty Thai. Service was excellent, food was top notch. I had the green curry with chicken and my husband got the drunken noodles we both did medium heat and added more chili oil one we tried it. Very delicious on their own but we personally added more heat.Will be back to try more stuff! Our guests had the seafood pad tom soup (loved it) and the other the Thai version of chow mein.Will def be back and it's a walkable distance from the starcade in keg and case.“
