Bangkok Garden — Restaurant in Oakland

Respectfully, this is the worst Thai food I’ve ever had. It takes a lot for me to write a bad review and much less about Thai food because I love it so much. The seafood basil I got was basically a mountain of barely cooked green beans with about three pieces of calamari and two shrimp. It was gross, to be frank, swimming in a puddle of oil to boot. The green curry had about three thin slices of chicken in it, and again, raw vegetables floating around. Not even mildly steamed. Look, I know everyone’s cutting costs but a mountain of vegetables and a couple of strips of meat whether it’s seafood or chicken, just is embarrassing and substandard. Even the brown rice wasn’t brown rice… It was purple rice. Which is its own thing and not what I wanted nor ordered. Will never ever return....

This place is really good. It made me wish I lived in Oakland just so that I can eat at this place often. We had the roasted duck over rice and pork noodles. Both of them are pretty good but I would 100% recommend the roasted duck over rice. It's an incredible dish.

Also if it isn't raining and if you're there during the day, you should definitely request outdoor seating. Beautiful atmosphere and a great place to just chill while having lunch. The location is also pretty nice, you can have a nice little walk before or after the meal. If you're local, this is a must-visit place. I'd even recommend out-of-towners to pay a visit if...

We have wanted to try this place for awhile, since they added a gate that wheelchairs and walkers can get through.

We started with ice tea coconut juice right from the coconut. All very good. Our appetizers were curry puffs and veggie egg rolls. Be sure to use the sauce with each to really enhance the taste. We ordered yellow veggie curry, Mango seafood curry and eggplant basil with chicken. The seafood had shellfish,octopus rings and shrimp. All three were very good. The outside patio was nice. We paid $100 plus tip for 3 people for a very nice Saturday lunch. We will...
