Bangkok Alley

"We went there to celebrate my birthday. I really don’t understand why this restaurant got 500 good reviews on Google. We ordered papaya salad, grilled pork papaya salad combo, satay chicken and shrimp basil fried rice. Everything was too salty. Papaya salad vegetables had rotten taste. Fried rice was too wet and had too much vegetables in it. Grilled pork papaya salad was not worth $21. The portions was too small for the price. The pork was very dry, over cooked and too salty. Satay was only 3 skewers and too dry. We were supposed to go to Thai Nine sushi downtown but they closed for renovations. My husband wanted Thai food. We don’t have other options since driving to downtown and came back already 8 pm on Wednesday nights. Every Thai restaurant is closed at 9 pm. I was right about the rotten papaya salad since I had to go to the bathroom immediately after we got home. This was not the first time that the food are bad. It’s used to be good before Covid-19. Now both locations are bad. They should compare their food with good Thai restaurant s in this area eg Mai Pai Thai restaurant in Jonesboro, AR, Thai Hut in Como, MS or Rice and Spice in Oxford, MS or Thai Nine Sushi downtown Memphis."

"WORST THAI FOOD EVER! I am wondering how they could run a restaurant with this type of food. We had tomyum soup, pad kee mao, and nam tok beef salad. The tomyum tasted like cold water with vinegar and some raw mushrooms in it. Pad Kee Mao looked sloppy af, the noodle was basically bland, even the egg was just like they threw fried egg on the dish. The Namtok Beef Salad was alright, just basically grilled beef with some spring mix. Everything was horrible. Seems like they hired a white guy first time cooking in the kitchen."

"The Thai tea was perfect and this was the best chicken pad Thai I’ve had! I’m glad we went to try it out. My partner had the seared ahi tuna (it was a little over cooked not really seared) but the sauce it came with was spectacular. I will be back to try more of their menu. :)"

"Excellent service. Super crispy spring rolls! The Seafood Lemongrass was cooked perfectly. The shrimp and scallops were tender and succulent, not overcooked and rubbery. Delightful sauce. My Mom said the Pad Thai was the best she's had anywhere in a long time. The manager, Vanessa, visited all the tables to make sure everyone's meals were great. It's evident why Bangkok Alley keeps winning awards."

"Very nice location. They were very busy with a 30 minute wait. Unfortunately, around the door area, it's very busy and no where to wait while waiting for a table to become available. Location is small inside. Once seated, we were greeted quickly. After we ordered, or server didn't check in with us again. She only said something when she brought out the food, which took an extremely long time. Fortunately the meal was great. Everything was hot and made fresh. I will definitely be back."
