This is some excellent Thai food! None of the dishes we've ordered have disappointed. Highly recommend!
The food is the best Thai food we have had in Fresno. Freshest ingredients, and super friendly service. One of our favorite places.
Their laab seen dip and the gang nai, is the bomb.very patient and friendly. Love how people just go there to enjoy with their friends and family.ambiance,awesome.
I came here on a ladies lunch date. We walked in around 1:00 pm on a Friday. Their dining area is a decent size for a smaller scale restaurant. They also had upgraded their restroom so now there's a separate male and female restroom. For food, I ordered the Mee Ka Tee while the other ladies ordered Lao fried rice with sour pickled sausages, papaya salad, Tom yum shrimp soup, and Num Yua Beef salad. Everything was delicious! But the top winning savory dishes are the papaya salad, Num Yua Beef Salad, and Lao fried rice with sour pickles sausages. The service was great, too. The waitress was a middle aged lady and she checked on us after taking our orders. She also kindly refilled our water more than three times as we ended up staying there for a couple of hours even after finishing our food.
Is a bit pricey, the restaurant itself is very clean. Food and service were excellent..
Top 2 ranking in Northern California! Neck and neck with South Area Market in Sacramento! Who will take the W? We shall see in 5 years... TBD Sausage and Chicken wings were on point. Laab is good! Would come back again
I haven't been here in ages, every time I tried to come they were closed. But finally I got to retry everything. The raw beef laap, if I remember correctly they're the only place in Fresno that sells FRESH beef. Freshly butchered. I don't know if that is true but the beef quality was great. Usually I ask for mild and slightly bitter. (I forgot to ask for it to be slightly bitter) and they made it bitter, too strong but still good nonetheless. (4/5) Goong nampa, I was just craving something refreshing. This was okay. I could definitely do without it. It's 4 or 5 shrimps on top of cabbage and tomato with a spicy sour sauce on the side. A bit pricey. $13. I honestly felt like it was missing something? I'm not sure. (2/5) Eggrolls, these were your basic eggrolls. Little meat, lots of veg (which is the perfect ratio for eggrolls) I know some prefer a lot of meat in their eggrolls but I definitely don't. Super fresh and hot when it came out. Kinda oily though. (3/5) Pad lad na, I enjoyed this a lot. Super tasty. A tad bit bland but they have a ton of seasonings on the table to dress it up. (4.5/5) Overall everything was pretty decent. Nothing too crazy. I do have to mention that all the dishes were on the pricer side and the portions are smaller than other places in the area. I want to give this place a 3.5 but I rounded up to 4
Considering the location and quantity, price point is a little high. But with everything going up, they have to do what they got to do to stay in business. I would still support considering I'm in the area and craving Lao/thai food, considering it a treat. Kao poon is a must try, very flavorful and thicker noodles which I prefer. Eggrolls are very good but only 4 slim ones for $10. Pork larb was good but was on the saltier side this time I got, for the quantity, not with $18. Thai tea is worth it! Place was clean and service was nice and attentive.
I have not been to B & K Asian food in a few years because I usually go to Sweet Mango next door. I remembered that they had a really tasty nam tok which is sliced beef with dipping sauce. For our last lunch of 2023, my husband and I dined out and got a Combination Phad Si Ew as well as a Combination Phad Kee Mow (Drunken Noodles). They tasted good and hit the spot. Phad Kee Mow was mild as stated on the menu so I did add Sriracha. Phad Thai in Clovis has the best drunken noodles, their prices are about the same- Roughly $17 per plate and their portions are bigger. For these entrees and two canned sodas, it came out to $39 because we used our debit card. The guy serving us was nice. They did renovate, but it's a small restaurant so our waiter heard every word we said. It's not an everyday thing because dining out has become expensive, but I'd come back to try their other menu items.
