Bangkok Express is portrayed as a solid value for Thai dining with a warm, lively atmosphere and a menu that covers a broad variety at reasonable prices. Reviewers praise tasty staples such as spring rolls, tom yum soup, pad thai and generous curries, plus popular items like green curry and duck dishes, while a few dishes are noted as greasy or overly salty and some visits mention inconsistency or slower or less attentive service. The staff are frequently described as friendly and the interior or terrace setting adds to the appeal, with some guests planning to return and others recalling it as a neighbourhood favorite, though a lunch special policy about beverage substitutions drew mixed feelings. Overall Bangkok Express offers a dependable, flavorful experience with good value and a welcoming vibe that encourages repeat visits.
If you're looking for authentic Thai cuisine, this is the place to be. Every dish we ordered was a perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty, & spicy. The Pad Thai had that elusive smoky wok hei flavor, & the chicken Coco Curry soupe was incredibly rich & fragrant. You can tell they use fresh herbs & high-quality ingredients. Truly a 5-star experience for any foodie!'
We went to Bangkok Express & overall had a great experience.
The atmosphere is really nice, with a warm & lively vibe, & the prices are very reasonable, especially for the variety offered on the menu.
Food-wise, it was a good mix:
• The spring rolls & tom yum soup were excellent, full of flavor & very satisfying
• The pad thai was very good, although just a little on the oily side
• The fried rice was good, but not particularly memorable
• Cocktails were nice, but slightly on the sweeter side
Service was smooth & the overall experience was very enjoyable.
In short, a solid & satisfying spot with great value for money. We'll definitely be back.
We ordered Thai red curry soup & crispy dumplings to start with, the soup was way too watery & lacked flavor. I had to pour some of the dipping sauce that came with the dumplings into the soup.
We ordered the choo-chee fish, Thai red curry with shrimp & beef udon. I made the mistake of asking them to make the food spicy, it was so spicy that we were crying, & we can handle spice. Also, there is no rice with the curries, so you have to order them separate which obviously cost more. The portion of ice-cream (which we got because of the food being overly spicy) was also too small for the price. The Thai milk tea was my savior.
This was my 4th time going to this restaurant, I don't know if I might be going back.
Nourriture délicieuse Salade de mangue savoureuse, touche umami Soupe tom yum : un spicy balancée & citronnée Pad Thai : portion raisonnable, les saveurs étaient présente, le tofu moelleux, toutefois non épicé de base & plutôt sucré Dessert mangue & riz sucré: frais & réconfortant Crème glacée matcha, portion très satisfaisante & les arômes sont au rendez-vous! Bien hâte d'essayer celle au Taro!
I wouldn't recommend eating here honestly. My pad see ew was terrible & tasted weird. It did not look or taste authentic at all. My friend got the pad thai & it wasn't as bad but it was also not great either. It seems like they don't know how to make proper thai food. I'm from nyc & I'm used to having very authentic Thai food so this place did not make the mark. I usually never send food back but I just could not finish my dish. I'm giving 3 stars because the staff were nice & took it off my bill. At least the appetizers & soup were pretty good but the main dishes sucked Edit due to response from owner: I've had very good Thai food in many other cities, not just in New York. Unfortunately your food was simply not good. I am not a picky person so that's saying something. I'd recommend improving your cooking instead of defending it. You've received low ratings from others as well. Please take the feedback of your customers into account if you would like to improve the success of your business. Posting multiple edits is not a good look lol. I'll be recommending my friends to eat at other establishments.
