Excellent food. Very sensitive to exactly how spicy each diner likes their dish. Reasonably priced, especially the lunch special which is massive. Very good, friendly service. Tables are a bit scrunched together. They could use more space, but with rents being what they are who can blame them?

I have been dining here for many years and I always have such a wonderful experience dining here. The staff are very friendly and the food is always divine! Will always come back here

Everything has become so expensive—dinners for two, just a vegetable plate and noodles with no drinks, end up costing about $35 per person including tax and tip.

A quick stop for a quick dinner and we were pleasantly surprised by the offerings and atmosphere and quick service and delicious food! We had the happy hour lettuce wrap with Chicken Larb followed by a big bowl of the Thai Coconut and Prawn and mushroom soup! Both were delicious and just what we needed to satiate our hunger. Servers were polite and informative and the food came quick and was nice and hot. I’d recommend this to anyone including gluten free guests as my friend ate the above and felt fine as they said it did not contain gluten. All yummy! 😋

I’ve loved Baan Thai for years — every single dish is amazing. The staff are always so welcoming and kind, which makes dining in such an enjoyable experience. And if you’d rather stay in, their takeout is super convenient and still tastes just as delicious.

We arrived at 11:30 and were seated promptly. We ordered from the lunch menu. I had the drunken noodles and my wife had the chicken red curry. Both dishes were delicious and good value. Her only disappointment was the soup which slacked a lot of flavor. Overall, the staff was attentive and we enjoyed our meal.

The food is excellent. The prices are not communicated well enough. Ordered a Phad thai and didn’t realize if you order meat it’s a separate cost. So what I thought was a $17 plate came out to $26. Portions are solid though.

The food is tasty and the portions are generous. This is my go-to Thai restaurant for take out, but the vibrant atmosphere makes it a great spot for dining in as well.

Good food and service was also good. Only real issue here, only one bathroom for a relatively large restaurant.

This branch of Baan Thai is one of their best with regards to the interiors and service. We've been here several times, their food and service are on point. Phad Thai and satay are always our go to food here. Their Happy Hour is also a must-try. Their Trio Mimosa is good according to my sister who thought the servings will be less but 3 glasses of 4oz Mimosa in different flavors were enough for sharing. Their non alcohol lavender drink is also good.

An amazing little neighborhood joint. Very friendly servers. Love their efficiency and of course the food is worth coming back to. The Khao soi was a special this week. I hope they bring it back or even better find a permanent spot on the menu.

So busy and so slow but good food! Usual Gen Z wait staff don't know how to speak to people and usually just congregate with each other and their phones.

Tasty food, great service and atmosphere. Only disappointment was paying the extra $9 for sirloin meat on the yummy Thai Garden veggies and only received maybe 7 tiny pieces of tasty meat. It made me feel a little ripped off. Coconut soup and chicken satay were amazing!

Amazing ambience, service and food every time we go. So nice for it to be so close by as well. Spent a recent birthday there and the chef let me in on some secrets of how to do a proper Phad See Ew, which was so appreciated, as they have the best version in town by far! Thanks again and we will be back again soon!

My son loved the sticky rice and mango. They had a great kids menu as well. He particularly enjoyed the kids coconut pineapple drink and the fresh, vibrant flowers on the table.

The food here is outstanding. I’ve been here four times now and it’s always (chef’s kiss) delicious. Seriously the best Thai food I’ve had anywhere. Absolutely love the red curry, the pra ram long song, chicken satay, and pad seeuw. I highly recommend.

I've had nothing but great experiences here. We went out last night for an evening of live music and late night happy hour. It was lovely. We had the best service we've had in Victoria in a long time and for the first time ever, did not feel any way about tipping 20%. In retrospect, I wish I had tipped her more.What a great evening!

As a Thai person, I always went to this restaurant when i was in Victoria. The head of the chef is Thai and the food is soooo good. Here's a review for each food I tried before- thai tea is sometimes sweet and sometimes too plain but I still think overall it's a good one- tomyum noodle comes with a very big bowl and tastes sour more than spicy- tomyum fried rice is soooo good! tastes like a local one for phet mal level- phad thai is good- larb tastes like local- the banana and gelato is a MUST!!!

Best deal for happy hours! Good service each and every time.This is so weird because I could've sworn I had posted reviews for this place before but Google Maps have the tendency to lose some of my old reviews.Definitely not the first time eating at this location and definitely won't be the last. 😁
