Francesca was a fantastic, attentive server who made excellent recommendations. The food was incredible. I find the tables too close together and I wish the happy hour food items were available all the time, otherwise I’m a thrilled loyal customer. Thank you.

If there was a way to only get served by Kylee, it would be the greatest thing on earth. She is the best ever and the food was actually delicious and made me drool like crazy. Please everyone high five Kylee when you see her!

Pad Thai was great, huge portion. Rice bowl also great. Lamb rice cups well done, hot sauce was on the side fortunately. Was hottest I've had in a bit. The crispy squid was sadly flaccid with coating coming off.

I used to live in Thailand and now in Victoria, when I want to eat authentic thai food served with a Thai welcoming smile I go to Baan Thai and I know that LEI will host me or my family as hers. LEI is fantastic and the food here is amazing ! Kop Khun Krap !

Oak Bay Baan Thai is my dad’s favourite restaurant so we come here every Sunday. The food is always delicious and the portions are large. At lunch, don’t forget to ask for the complimentary soup and a $2 spring roll. Lei and Koki is often our server, and both of them are always welcoming, charismatic and knowledgeable of Thai food and culture.

The food is incredible! The kitchen definitely has it perfected. Top faves besides the awesome happy hour and late night menu are the beef brisket noodle soup or the lamb massoman. The classic green curry and Tom yum soup are also on my regular rotation. The staff are all friendly. Tonight our server, Francesca, was such a delight! She had a full house and managed it all with grace.

Grady was our server and he was so awesome. especially for a chill sunday, he matched the relaxed vibe of the night perfectly. the guys a natural. my husband and i will be back soon and hope to have him as a server again. and he seemed genuinely excited to tell the cook how much i was enjoying my food.speaking of which, i ordered the prawn ceviche from their summer menu and holy cow. sooooo good. I actually got to meet the cook, Nath, because dang it was SOOO good. he’s really really great. the food was delicious and SO beautiful. i *almost* felt bad digging into such a beautiful presentation. PERFECT ratio of crispy wontons:ceviche.over all, VERY pleased with our sunday night meal. i hope management knows how lucky they are!!! thanks Grady and Nath! you made my night:-)

Love their $9 pad thai after 9 pm option. A good variety of late evening "happy hour" food options. Always fresh, "heat" is customizable, and generous portions. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly.
