Perfect lunch experience. Great portion on entrees and price. Great service.
Ordered bua wings and they were VERY crispy and not a ton of meat on them. For $8 the chicken satay portion was rather small.

Bua Thai is an absolute gem. I wish I had found this place sooner. The food was amazing, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Every dish tastes like it was made with care and real attention to detail.
The service is just as impressive. Our server was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without hovering. It’s the kind of place that gets it right every time. If you’re craving excellent Thai food and top-notch service, this is the spot. Highly recommend.

I’m a Thai food lover and had a taste for some dinner. The area was nice and the restaurant was casually comfortable.
A Thai curry is my first test of a restaurant. If you can’t do this well, all else is questionable. The green curry here was just ok. There’s a limit to the heat level they will prepare, but they will give you additional spice to add yourself. There were very few vegetables in the curry, nor much taste of keffir lime, which was a bit bland.
The dumplings were a bit greasy and not something I would order again. My daughter had the basil catfish (pad prik catfish), which was actually pretty good. The catfish was fried really well, but needed to add more seasoning for some actual spiciness.
I may return for the fish dish, but the curry and other dish leaves much to be desired.

The food was delicious! The drunken noodles are the best. Catfish was a little too salty, basil dish had too many onions. My massaman curry was weirdly peanutty. But on the whole, the food was incredible!

This is one of the worst thai food to have. Not at all authentic. We ordered Drunken Noodles and it tasted extra caramelized brunt sweet tofu, hardly any noodles and just mushrooms. Second dish red curry was so thin tasteless. Rice dry out and felt like microwaved. 3rd dish Pappaya salad tasted weird, from fridge, raw green beans. It didn’t tasted fresh. On top of it waiter and chef both were so stubborn and rude, arguing the whole time. I will not recommend this restaurant for take away or dinning. Because you don’t know the quality of food that is served and worst overall experience. Thats on weekend also you will not find any rush in the restaurant, feels like hardly people come here.

I have been searching for a good Thai restaurant since moving to the area 3 years ago. I have finally found my go-to Thai restaurant. The food was hot, fresh, beautifully presented and delicious! Even the iced tea made by our server, Amelia, was outstanding. The booth was comfortable, the music soft and we could hear each other Amelia was everything you could want in a server; friendly, informative and competent. We look forward to returning soon to sample some of the other interesting offerings.

A little Thai spot tucked away into Sutton Station that delivers a great selection. We had the Green Curry and Pad See Ew and both were very tasty.
The service was also attentive and fast, but I feel like this is a better spot to order take out that dining in. We will be back!

I can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this place yet because it’s been 5/5 each time I’ve come. My go-to dinner order is the pineapple fried rice, no shrimp, sub pork, cooked mild to medium spicy. The homemade desserts are also excellent. But if you trust me on anything, trust me on the pineapple fried rice. Plus, it’s a huge portion and I easily get 2-3 meals out of it.
