St Joe has every fast food place you can think of so I was happy to find a Thai restaurant. The food was okay. It was not the best Thai food I have eaten. But it was much better than the other options! More

Very small but clean and well-decorated. Service is extremely fast and pleasant. The longest we've ever waited for our food was on Valentine's Day and it was no longer than an average weeknight at any other restaurant (and the owner apologized more than once for our wait). Food is always delicious and seems fairly authentic. (I've never been to Thailand,... More

Whenever I call for take out, the owner tells me he is too busy taking care of his guests dine in and can't do to go orders. A customer is a customer and I am tired of it. More

This area doesn't have much ethnic food beyond Mexican and Italian. Ban Thai is a wonderful break from the more mundane restaurant choices. I have no idea how authentic it is, having never been to Thailand, but I do know I like it alot. I usually order spring rolls, chicken satay and green curry. Friends have ordered beef dishes; everyone... More

Pretty decent thai food for the area. Never have eaten in the restaurant, always order take out. Shrimp shumai is excellent, green curry is very good and the pad thai is decent. Overall prices aren't ridiculous and for the area the thai food is pretty good More

The food is minimal for the exorbitant prices. You mostly get rice and sauce with a few bits of meat or seafood. They use too much sugar and fillers. More

Food is great and very authentic. Service is very friendly. The restaurant is really small so can be a bit uncomfortable when crowded. No alcohol. More

A small but nicely decorated place; a very excited owner who helped us through the various food items. Food was just a bit above average. We were there for lunch and service was fast. We ordered some curries and rice and some desserts .. curry was okay, the dessert (sticky rice) was dry inside. More
