I went with a friend. Food was mediocre and took a while to come out. People who came after us got their food before us. We ordered rice and wings literally. Barely interacted with us & Forced us to tip them on our way out. Called us uncultured & asked us if “our parents taught us better?” and also asked if we were born here as if it has anything to do with her or the meal. As we were eating, the server kept staring at us and making us uncomfortable. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone else but the food can be much better.

I recommend! The atmosphere is beautiful and cozy, and the staff is incredibly nice and attentive. The food is amazing, with rich, deep flavors.
My absolute favorite is the Braised Beef Basil (10/10)— savory and spicy, it’s a must-try! I’ve also had:
• Pad Kee Mao (8/10) – Very flavorful, but the noodles were a bit too chewy.
• Roti Massaman (8/10) – Delicious, but the cinnamon flavor makes it more sweet than spicy.
• Crispy Crab Rangoons (6/10) – Decent, but nothing special.
• Chicken & Shrimp Dumplings (5/10) – Just okay, wouldn’t order again.
• Pattaya Wings (7/10) – Pretty good, but not the best I’ve had.
• Panang Curry (7/10) – Tasty, but not outstanding.
Side note: I ordered the Braised Beef Basil all four times, and I’ve noticed the portion keeps getting smaller each visit! The amount of beef on the plate has noticeably decreased, which is disappointing. Because of that, I’ll be taking a break from it for now.
Overall, still a great spot with amazing flavors—I just hope they fix the portion sizes!

Bangrak is excellent! I’ve been here a few times and it never disappoints. Their pad see ew is always flavorful and not dry like some other places. The Thai iced tea is also a must! The way the restaurant is decorated makes it a cozy favorite!

Quaint restaurant with excellent food. We've dined in and ordered take-out, both were excellent meals. As a plant-based, vegan eater, I appreciate the willingness to help modify dishes to accommodate my dietary restrictions. My omnivore partner has also been very satisfied with his meals.
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are clearly labeled. If you need vegan, just ask. They are able to omit egg and fish sauce from some dishes.
Dietary restrictions: Willing to accommodate vegan dietary restrictions. Just ask, they can omit egg and fish sauce from some dishes.

This place has the best Thai food around. The service is amazing, the food is delicious. My favorite is the pad Thai and dumplings with a Thai iced tea. And the best part is that the restaurant is pink!
