Banthai Express

Banthai saved our Christmas! When our Christmas Eve dinner plans fell through, we thought we may not be able to find a last minute dinner solution. Banthai not only took our late order, but when we came to pick it up they gave us free Thai iced teas in the spirit of Christmas. I was so blown away by this, they really saved our night and made it even more special. The food is delicious, there's a big menu to explore, and the people that work here are always friendly and helpful. I'd love more veggies and the curries, but that's not a critique enough to take out a star. Overall an awesome food truck run by awesome people!

I think Banthai Express just became my go-to for a local Thai spot in southwest Austin. I was recommended this food truck by some Thai friends who said all of their dishes are solid. I've been here several times and ordered a variety of dishes and have enjoyed them all. The food is fresh, flavorful, and piping hot each time I order. It's easy to order both online, and just walk up to the window and order on the spot. There are a wide variety of dishes, and something for everyone in the family. One thing I especially like about Banthai is that the dishes that are supposed to be spicy have some heat to them. Often I find Thai restaurants, in America at least, I think end up catering to people who want to order spicy dishes but don't actually like spicy food (go figure)...so the rest of us who do like spice miss out.

This food truck has charged management and the taste and quality of the one and only dish I order, chicken pad Thai, is not the same as the former owner/chef’s. I don’t mind change, but this isn’t for the better. I have to find another place to get my Pad Thai fix, so disappointed, I would go there at least nice a week!
