As a spoiled foodie from ny, i was not surprised to find average thai in texas. The veggie rolls were good as was the chicken with thai veggies, but they need to serve mire authentic thai to get a better vote from me. We asked for a spice plate ( standard in most thai restaurants ) but we got hot... More

I have been to quite a bit of Thai places across the country and I have to say Bangkok Royal is one of the best I've had. I get the Pad Thai with Shrimp and my mouth just waters for it!!!

I've always loved eating here. The food is delicious and there is a reasonably priced lunch menu. Over the past year the restaurant has become very popular. However, the ceiling is high and concrete floors mean it is terribly loud! The past three times we've gone during lunch, we've waited 45 minutes on our food-unacceptable!. Something must change quickly!

Another couple and my wife and I visited on a friday night. They were busy, but had an open table. We all had different entree's and everyone said their food was very good. Service was efficient and speedy. No one in our party ordered an especially spicy dish so I cannot comment on this, but otherwise a nice alternative to... More

Went to try the thai food here and was very disappointed. It was very tame. When we asked for the dishes to be spicy, they came out so mild that my child could eat it. As for the tables, they were very sticky and when I asked the waiter to wipe it down, he said it was the plastic coating... More

We visited on a Thursday right during lunch. They were very quick to take our order, bring our drinks and our soup/salad. I had the ginger soup and it was delicious. My wife had the green curry and I had the Pad Prig Sod. Both dishes were excellent with good heat. You could really taste the lemongrass in my wife's... More

This is a wonderful place to take friends and enjoy a very wide variety of Thai food. I have not had any dish that I did not like and the best is the coconut ice cream at the end of the meal. The service is average but the food quality more than makes up for any delays. But who eats... More

We had a nice late evening meal with friends. The food was vey good as was the service. Each person was happy with their dish. There were only a couple of other tables with diners so it was fairly quiet. If the restaurant is busy, I'd guess it would be loud because the restaurant is located in a former warehouse.... More

The food and service here are excellent. The price is expensive for what you get. Makes for a nice night out in a great atmosphere-no loud music or TV's

It is great to finally find a Thai place that has fantastic food that isn't overly 'American'. The service was fast and the food was excellent.
