I recently dined at bistro siam restaurant, and I must say that the papaya salad was incredibly fresh and tasty. The flavors were vibrant, and it was a great start to the meal. The pad see ew was also bursting with flavor. It really hit the spot. Overall, the food was fantastic, and the service was top-notch. The only downside is that the place is a bit outdated, but the delicious food more than made up for it. Highly recommend!

Amazing food.. loved the Tom yum veggies soup 🍲 it was just so fresh and delicious.. fresh salad rolls were also nice. Pad kee mow noodles were perfect cooked with perfect blend of spices. Definitely going to visit again.

Good service and good place to go on a team lunch. The appetizers and the Thai iced coffee were delicious. The Pad kee mao was okay. The noodle texture and spices were different than usual

Pretty good local spot for authentic Thai food. I had the pad Kee mow (vegetarian) while my friend got the pad thai. I loved it, it had the right amount of spices and flavor and veggies, and cooked really well too. The portion size is also plentiful. Theres a fair amount of seating inside (probably can seat 20 people) and the prices are quite reasonable. Check this spot out and satisfy your Thai food cravings!

I was craving crab fried noodles but my go to place was closed, ended up here because heard it had good crab fried rice. Did not disappoint!! Loved it. The basil beef was pretty good as well.

We have this place a shot. The panang curry is too watery with diluted flavors. We also ordered pad Thai. Feels like a hard noodles ball with some cheap tasting oil. Food tastes stale

Delicious Thai restaurant in the neighborhood! My pad thai with shrimp is so tasty! Attentive and friendly service! Will come back for more..

Ordered the vegetarian pad kee mow noodle with tofu through Uber eats(specifically mentioned no meat). They sent me chicken. Even after mentioning the dietary restrictions explicitly, making such mistakes is unacceptable from any restaurant. Will never order from here again!

Pleasant service. Good selection of curries and pad thai. Everything served in generous portions. I recommend massaman curry and fried bananas.

Ordered shrimp spring salad rolls and Pad see ew noodles online. My order was ready in 12 min. The shrimp rolls were wrapped in plastic to keep soft and accompanied with a delicious sauce. The Pad See Ew was a bit different than i expected, but good. The restaurant was clean and the staff was very courteous and welcoming.

My proximity, food quality and the price have made this place my go to restaurant when I want a real and warm food, fast. Most of the time I take takeouts from this place and the pad Thai, Masaman curry, red, and green, and yellow curry are awesome. The Pad Thai is really inexpensive and yet delicious. The portions are really big too its enough for 1.5 servings for me.It is usually quite and the atmosphere looks nice but the restaurant is relatively small and there arent a lot of decorations.

Excellent food, portion sizes and prices! After trying out a few so-called highly rated places, I have concluded that nothing beats the taste, quality and value for money here! Dined in a few times and the service has been good. And prompt friendly response on phone too, when ordering for pickup. They even advised me once that pickup may be difficult due to an event at Levis stadium and the ensuing traffic delays! And surely it took about an hour from there to North 1st street then! But the food was worth the effort!The vegetarian option of Panang curry is amazing, and the sticky mango rice is out of this world! 2 things that one must try here!It has always been a delight to eat Thai food from Bistro Siam for the last year or so since a friend recommended it.. Please keep up the good work!

Tom Yum is not good at all, it smelled weird. Not appetizing and over priced.Pad ki maw was the only good tasting item.They also charge a transaction fee of 4% after tax which is just theft. (Guessing credit card).

I had lunch here several times. Love their Pannang seafood yellow curry. The veggies & shrimp are cooked just right. I dont like their sour soup thats included in the lunch special, but their food is very good. I usually come around 1:30 PM or a little after to avoid the crowd on week days.

Had delicious takeout from here a couple weeks ago so ordered again. This time they coated the Pad See Ew I ordered in red pepper. I personally have never had Pad See Ew, which is a fairly mild dish, this spicy, it is pretty bad, inedible, and disappointing.

Our favorite, go-to spot for Thai food for the past 5 years! I love the veggies in the Panang curry. The service has always been friendly to us, and the ambiance is very pleasant. The prices are just right for us, too!

Great food and prices. I was in town for a conference and stopped here for dinner. I ordered the yellow curry chicken dish and it was one of the best I had. The place is ok but food is awesome. I had a chat with the server and seemed cool and friendly guy to talk with. I dig places like this, small and family owned.

There sticky rice is a picture with mango. Not sweet and no mango. False advertising. Guy wasnt friendly when I picked the food up to.

There are a lot of Thai restaurants in the area with higher reviews, but this one offers the best experince. Not only is the food good but the service is extremely fast and incredibly friendly. Rare qualities for restaurants in this area. There is also spacious parking outside. If you choose this location for your Thai cravings you will not be disappointed.

This actually exceeded my expectations. In such a small plaza and surrounded by all office buildings, they serve great Thai food. They also have a big selection of vegetarian food. We got great service too. Im definitely gonna visit more.

Review №27

2018-02-28 15:29:54

I was excited to eat here after reading reviews only to be dissapointed by horrible service. I ordered the Thai ice tea which I never received during my whole meal but at the end was charged for. The chicken pad Thai wasnt what I was expecting which was disappointing because I love this dish. I will not be returning. Service is everything to me and I give them 2 stars which is being nice .😔

Me and my girlfriend really enjoyed this place. It’s small and homey. The waiter was very helpful and attentive. The beef fried rice was really good also.

Review №29

Pictures show a side of rice with curries but FYI you have to order separately. Very generous with vegetables, but stingy on meat. Flavors were ok.

2016-08-08 16:33:53

Weve been going here for a few years and its our go-to spot for Thai. Its always delicious and the staff are always nice and helpful. I have only ever had one slow experience in all of the times that Ive been, and Im pretty sure that was due to a large party showing up without calling ahead or making reservations to ensure proper staffing.

Review №31

2020-03-17 03:24:54

Ordered the see-ew and panang curry through doordash. They delivered quickly but I soon realized I got my see-ew and a bowl of curry with no rice. Spent nearly $50 on my order. Called them asking about the rice and they explained I ordered the entree, and not the lunch special at 7:30pm. Here I go with a spoon and a bowl of sauce and veggies that I spent like $14 on.

Review №32

2019-01-28 01:11:43

Good eatout! Shrimp roll was good,veg roll o-k.Pineapple fried rice and Thai fried rice was good. Crab in the crabfried rice wasn’t very flavorful. Neither was squid in Thai fried rice.Panang chicken curry was excellent. But the duck red curry was disappointing!Good Thai iced tea !

Review №33

2017-02-26 18:59:00

This place is so cheap and really tasty. Ive gone here multiple times and their panang curry is really delicious. We also get roti bread and the sauce. If you order online, peanut sauce isnt the same thing as the liquid sauce that it usually come with. We accidentally made that mistake haha..

Food was good. Wish they had a lunch option with rice and two entrees. A giant plate of a single flavor is a bit much.
