I eat here every couple of months and love the food and atmosphere. Have never had anything disappointing. The fresh rolls and steamed dumplings are great appetizers. One of my favorite dishes is the butternut squash red curry with shrimp: hot and spicy, but you can still taste the sweetness of the squash and the brininess of the seafood. For... More

I've been here a few times, there are now many Thai restaurants in the DC area, and this place still beats out most of the new comers. Fair prices, and great good. Of course the Pad Thai is good, but they do fish very well. The spicy pork belly is amazing too. More

We had food delivered from this restaurant. It wasn't the greatest, but it wasn't bad either. However, the portions were a somewhat scant and the prices were somewhat high. We ordered spring rolls (2), and two entrees and it set us back a $50. More

This review is overdue. Bangkok 54 is a reliable go-to place for very good Thai food. Since we like a wide variety of cuisines, I'll say that it's one of our go-to places for very good food ... full stop. No matter what we've ordered there, we have always come away very glad that we've chosen to eat there. Personally,... More

I'm Thai, and my pet peeve is when I go to a Thai restaurant and find overly westernized version of my favorite dishes. BKK54 doesn't disappoint, and everything tastes as it should (and 'extra spicy' is actually hot enough for me). My only gripe is with the service, which prevented a 5 star rating. If I were in Bangkok, I... More

Being that my husband and I live right across the street, we frequent the place often. Admittedly, I am quite picky. I am a vegetarian and generally try to eat healthy. They have a huge variety of vegetarian dishes. Though it is clearly heavily fried, the spicy roasted tofu is amazing! The green curry tofu is also quite good. I... More
