Ban Thai - Baltimore

Went for lunch on a Wednesday. Place was not crowded and was seated right away. The interior is clean and they have cultural music playing. There is plenty of seating for large parties and a bar if desired. Started with crab rangoon which was served with a peanut fish sauce, though I'd prefer the sweet chili sauce. Next was the Tom yum goong which had 2 huge shrimp but the broth was too salty from too much fish sauce. Had the drunken noodles lunch special, which was good with a lighter sauce but plenty of spice. It was served piping hot, which I liked, but be careful. Could have been spicier, but it depends on your heat tolerance. Service was quick and came with a smile. The food can satisfy the occasional itch for Thai food, but I think there are better Thai restaurants in Baltimore. Would recommend for a quick lunch bite or carry-out but not a date night. Prices are good and you can leave feeling full.

Food was horrible and overpriced! Pad thai with shrimp is what I ordered. There were 4 shrimp in the entire dish and they were overcooked. So much so I that I didn't eat them. There were barely any bean sprouts or onions in my dish. The noodles had very little sauce and flavor. I feel jipped for the price that I paid. They should be ashamed of themselves for the food quality. This is what was thrown away. I'm disappointed.

We ordered spicy chicken wings, and two orders of chicken/shrimp basil fried rice. The shrimp were mushy, and hardly any chicken was added to the dishes. The order was 50.34 with tip and delivery fees. Our meal was a total waste. I will never order from here again!!!!

Awful meal! We ordered the curry puffs and pineapple fried rice; both were horrible! The fried rice had only 1 shrimp, and the pineapple was rancid. The thai teas were spoiled as well. Disgusting. For an expensive dinner we had to throw it away uneaten and will never come here again.

A hidden gem! authenticity thai aromen burst out of my meal, the Papaya salad really tasty, by the way, the portions are great, even they can share if they want! Anyway, the Thai ginger tea was delicious, and I also order the khao soi, incredibly rich profile, in which did a cook inspired dish! well done!
