You would experience their hospitality the moment you enter. Many staff members will welcome you by joining hands. I went at around 4pm on a week day so encountered no waiting. They have a the kitchen visible from the glass partition. Hygene is maintained in kitchen and dinning area. The food quality was very good. I'm reducing one point as I didn't expected the Pad Thai noodles to be sweet. The Thai tea was also a bit too sweet for my taste buds.

Definitely worth the visit! The pad thai is more on the sweet side so I added chili powder and lemon to kick my tastebud. The spring rolls you also have to get one, it is very recommended! Will I ever visit here again when I visit Thailand? Definitely yes. Come early to avoid the crowd.

I come here every time I'm in Bangkok. Worth the wait every single time. Absolutely delicious, by far the best pad Thai and even king prawns I've ever had the chance to taste. You HAVE TO get their house made orange juice too, it'll change your life!

Good, not great. Not what it used to be, and part of that experience was the three huge sidewalk side woks taking turns at two gas burners to keep up with orders. Several options for pad thai, especially with shrimp oil. Worth trying in an exploration of the dish throughout Bangkok.

Swung by Thipsamai, a place that's pretty much a legend for Pad Thai in Bangkok. Got there around 5:30pm and only had to wait about 10 minutes, which was a stroke of luck because the line was huge by the time I left. Pro tip: hit it up just before or after the usual meal times to dodge the crowds.
I went for the superb Pad Thai, and it was something else – wrapped in an omelet, of all things. They even give you a little guide on how to enjoy it to the fullest, and let me tell you, with all the seasonings mixed in, it was a flavor bomb. Debated between ice coconut and orange juice, ended up with the coconut, and it was the perfect call for the Bangkok heat.
What really took me by surprise was the service. Even with the place buzzing, the staff were super friendly and made sure you were looked after. Plus, their English was some of the best I've encountered around here.
Definitely keen to come back and try more from their menu. Can't wait for the next visit!
