Ban Thai Restaurant Frankfurt — Restaurant in Frankfurt

Lovely, if somewhat hidden place. Has plenty of room inside and a really gorgeous garden with painted walls and all sorts of decorations. Soft oriental music plays in the background, too. I ordered chicken skewers with peanut butter sauce and a traditional curry with chicken, potatoes and peanuts (and usually onions, but I'm not too keen on that). Both dishes were very tasty! The chicken skewers were mostly done and you were given the option to roast them more by yourself, the peanut butter sauce was thick with leftover traces of peanut, crunchy! My main dish was served with a big bowl of rice which I could scoop up by my own servings. Very mild, sweeter than the usual Thai curry types. My only complain was that the potatoes seemed somewhat unevenly cooked, but I ate them anyways of course and I don't mind it that bad. By the by, the Thai ice tea with milk is simply a must! Especially for the sweet tooths around here.

If you are in Frankfurt for a few days and yearn for a change from the delicious German grilled pork knuckle and schnitzel, then this is the place that you can give it a try - especially if you are a Thai food lover and even more so a rice person. We thought it was closed when we approach the entrance as it was very quite from the outside on a Monday evening. To our relief, it was actually open and the place opens up to a airy and cool courtyard where most of the diners were. The soups were good with very fresh ingredients, albeit it could have been more rich and spicy - and for this you could ask them for spice and chilli. We really love the crispy duck. It goes perfectly well with the rice and Prosecco. The dinner ended with a very good mango sticky rice - a perfect ending...

The restaurant is known to take down negative reviews, which is not an appropriate way to treat guests/customers!!!

This place seemed promising, but for my Asian girlfriend and me, it sadly delivered the worst Thai food we've ever had, lacking any authenticity. The pad thai was disappointingly sweet, and the beef was both tough and sugary. It was the first time I encountered pad thai served with such a thin, sweet sauce. Our appetizers appeared stale and were so hard and dry that they hardly had any flavor left. I never thought a main dish could give me a sugar rush until now. On a brighter note, the mango lassi was delicious and not overly sweet. Unfortunately, the long wait and the high prices didn't match the quality of the food. However, the ambiance was...
