Good food, green curry was good. People are friendly. The parking is hard as there are many other great businesses here and always a ton of cars but worth the car tetris to eat here.

Honestly some of the best Thai flavor I have had I a while. Both Green Curry and Pad Thai were phenomenal. The spicy rating is only zero, some spice, and spicy. The spicy was manageable, I'd say like a 3 or 4 star out of 4 or 5 at other Thai places.

I’ll give it two stars because it was edible…but was it good? No, no it wasn’t. If you are a fan of authentic Thai food, don’t come here. The flavor was lacking, the chicken tasted “off” like it had been frozen and refrozen several times and neither dish we ordered was just not very tasty. They didn’t ask for spice levels when we ordered so we had to ask for a spice rack to try and give our meals some flavor, but even the spice rack was subpar. We won’t be coming back.

We have been coming to BUA for a few years now. It is entirely my fault that I have been delinquent in sharing our experience here.The won ton soup must be the most delicious I have had. It is so loaded with delicious vegetables. And the won tons don’t lack in their filling. It is served in a large enough bowl to share with possibly four other hungry people.I always order their Vegetable Garden stir fry. Very tasty and loaded with many different vegetables.My wife likes to order the Chicken Pad Thai. It is always very tasty as well.Their portions are very generous. You may have to take some home.We will continue to come is for our share of Thai food and Thai tea.

The food was incredible and the service was even better. This little place is a gem in Lake Stevens. Not a big place but had a great vibe. Perfect little lunch or dinner spot. I had a Thai iced tea which was perfect! I followed the up with the Bua wings and the crispy garlic chicken. The wings were amazing and the seasoning they put on top is unmatched. The crispy garlic chicken was a perfect level of crispy chicken with a spicy sauce along with peppers. 10/10 would recommend this place.

The food tastes as GOOD as it smells! The aroma will draw you in and the talented team at Bua Thai Fusion will keep you here~ ?Pad Thai and their creamy Tom Kha is very comforting for Washington's cold days... be sure to say hi to Joy! ?

As soon as I walked in I knew I would love it. Pad Kee Mao, 5/5. The staff is incredibly friendly and greet you like family. I got to meet the owner and everyone is just out standing. I would recommend anyone within a 50 mile radius give it a try and make the drive.
After two year of AWESOME FOOD, Not anymore! Expect cold food if you order from Door Dash! Also recipes have changed so not worth the cost! By Bua! I’ll miss your prior good food, what I got today wasn’t worth the cost! ?

One notable positive aspect was that the restaurant included rice with their curry, which is not always the case in many Thai restaurants that tend to excessively and unscrupulously upsell this fundamental accompaniment. It's essential for diners to carefully vet restaurants for the inclusion of rice to avoid falling victim to unnecessary upselling practices.I recently ordered delivery from this restaurant and chose the Massaman curry. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. The potatoes in the curry were noticeably undercooked and not softened before being added to the dish. Similarly, the peanuts lacked the desired softness, affecting the overall texture and taste of the curry.However, I encountered an unexpected issue - a distinct aftertaste of soap in the curry. This was surprising to me, as I do not have the genetic predisposition that makes coriander taste like soap, and I generally enjoy a variety of spices from around the world. This aftertaste raised concerns about the restaurant's preparation methods.It's possible that the undercooked potatoes and peanuts are indicative of shortcuts in the restaurant's meal preparation process. Additionally, the soap-like aftertaste could suggest that proper rinsing of their prep machinery may be overlooked, with the expectation that the curry's flavors will mask any residual suds.Unfortunately, this is the second time I've experienced such issues at this restaurant, which leads me to believe that these problems may not be isolated incidents. Have you had a similar experience at this restaurant? It's important to share our experiences to ensure the quality of dining establishments in our area.

Stopped by for dinner on a Wednesday and was able to get a seat right away. The restaurant wasn't busy and the servers were very attentive as we sat down and ordered our appetizers and main dishes. We ordered the appetizer Sampler, Pad Thai, and Pad Kee Mao. The food came out quickly and we dove right in. The noodles may have been a little overcooked, if I'm being nitpicky, but the flavor was good. My friend asked for a mild spice level, and he was happy with that. I asked for medium, but didn't really feel the kick or tingle in my nose like I wanted. Overall it was a good experience and a good spot if you're looking for something late night.
