Decades I have been coming here!
I drive 245 miles from Youngstown, OH, now my home, to eat HERE! We have NOTHING on this level even close to Youngstown, not in my opinion. MANY variations but NOT like the FRESH Thai that I know since the 90s.
And that is NO BS!
The food is THAT good! Just a little hole in the wall too but with the real tradition of homeworld Thai.
Everything FRESH! The portions use to be better but, then again, Covid hit. All these mom and pop places have to survive and I will continue to do my part to help, even from 250 miles away!
The quality has not lessened one bit in

Just the OG Thai food place of SE Michigan, no biggie, right??
The place just oozes authenticity. All the ingredients are fresh and a true Thai flavor can be found in everything from the fresh holy basil to the REAL Tom Yum soup (not the starchy hot & sour Chinese style soup). Be very aware of your spice levels and enjoy.

I’ve been eating here for almost a decade and there is no other Thai place that even touches Bangkok cafe. Super fast, super delicious and very fair on the prices. Everything is delicious my only recommendation would be maybe to order a 1/2 spice level down because they definitely know how to turn up the heat. 10/10 will eat here again (and again)

Bangkok cafe definitely has a mom and pop feel and a home made delicious taste to match! The food was excellent and each dish had flavors that were sufficiently complex and well balanced. If you are familiar with thai food already, you will like or love the food. It is not overly altered for the American Pallette. For appetizers, The Tom Yam Guy (hot and sour Thai style, not Chinese) and Tom kha guy (Tom yam with coconut milk) were both so flavorful, comforting and delicious. We also had Fresh rolls (meat, cilantro and lettuce wrapped in rice paper) which were very refreshing (not at all savory

This place had very good reviews so we gave it a try, we're out-of-towners. Being vegan and vegetarian we were able to order a couple of items off the menu, and they were excellent. Our friend who is not vegetarian had gotten there before us and finished his meal already and he gave us a tip - their dishes are really, really hot and spicy! So we ordered a four out of ten on the heat scale, and he was right! The waitress said that was a medium level, but boy was it HOT! My eyes were watering and nose running - but it was so good I couldn't stop eating. Huge heaping portion, enough to take home for
