Nattha's Bann Thai Asian — Restaurant in Tucson

IMPORTANT NOTE: All reviews older than March of 2022 are for an old business that used to occupy this location and are invalid reviews for "Nattha's Bann Thai Asian." The previous business was a Chinese restaurant, "Peking Palace Restaurant," and the new owners took over the location in March. Until Yelp corrects this, I suggest sorting the reviews by "Recent" first.

Delicious! Worth. Every. Penny.

I had some of the best hot & sour soup ever. Definitely has a bit of a kick to it. Didn't make my nose run, but there was a nice kick to it. And PACKED with egg, bamboo, mushrooms, and tofu. It has a bit of a sweet tang to it.

The yellow curry was fabulous! So tasty! I had it with beef and the beef was so tender.

The moo goo gai pan was delicious.

I've found an excellent, 5 star, Asian restaurant on the east side. Finally.

5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away...

Stopped here for lunch on the way to the National park and was not disappointed. First, the restaurant is located on the far right side of the mall and you do not see it until your in front of it near the street exit/entrance. We were there on a Monday at lunch time and there was plenty of tables with no wait. I did notice a lot of take out going out the door the entire time I was there, so thats a good thing.

The entrance has a hosts for seating as well as a little bar in the same place. The seating is in an “L” shape. There are bathrooms and everything is on one level. We ordered two Thai ice teas and they were huge and delicious. For food we order the lunch combo “A” with my main being Mongolian beef. It was Soooo tender and delicious. It came with white of fried rice as well as an egg role and two crab cakes. The egg roll was as expected and the crab cakes we creamy and tasty. We also order the basil chicken lunch special “B”. The chicken was amazing and delightful to eat.

One issue pulling this down one star has to do with my wife’s food allergy to shell fish. She could not eat the crab cakes so she requested and extra egg roll in place of the two crab cakes, DENIED! They brought her the crab cakes on a separate plate with the egg roll, which is now contaminated as well, instead of honoring here request.

I would recommend eating here but do not expect any changes to...

Heard great things and wanted to check this place out. Maybe it was all the pick up and delivery orders that dropped the ball in dining service experience. But IMO and having had worked in busy settings such as this,they should staff and or plan better for their busy times. We made the mistake of dinning in. It's a sit yourself kinda place,so that could play into not knowing we were there? We sat ourselves down,but then had to move because there was a leak in our area. We finally got menus and water and then waited for close to 30 minutes before we were seen again. Prior to that,no one came to refill our waters,even when a waitress filled the table next to ours with water,she literally didn't even look our way. I had brought a bottle of water with me and refilled my 2 guests cups with that water. Then they brought one guests dish as we waited 5 minutes for the rest of the table to get their food. In my dining experience,the entire tables orders generally come out together. Food arrived,portions are nice for the price. Couldn't finish it,so we had to take it to go but they brought the 2 to go containers at separate times as well. Over all I'd say your best bet is to get take away or delivery? But as we were leaving the entire doorway was packed with people waiting for those sort of orders,best to probably do lunch or when they first open.

The time waiting isn't worth...
