First time here. The atmosphere is very authentic with Thai influences through out the restaurant. Some what dark on the lighting but enough to see the menu. For an appetizer we tried the chicken satay. The chicken was dry and not as moist as most other Thai chicken satays I've tasted but decent nonetheless. For my entree I ordered the cashew beef and it was AWESOME. The plating was nice, food comes out fresh and piping hot, and the flavors of cashew and spice blended well with the celery and green onion. My wife ordered the Spicy Basil Noodle and added shrimp. I was also impressed with the balance of flavors with this dish as well as the amount in one order. Service was good the ladies there were very attentive and made sure our water glasses were full. Decent price for all the food. Over all the food was prepared fresh and full of flavor, service was on point, and the check was decent. This is a good alternative restaurant choice for Thai in BR!

Located in Avery friendly environment! The lunch specials are cheap and filling. Caution! I know this is South Louisiana and we like our food spicy. When you order any dish "spicy" from here it's really spicy. Great place for a date and two people can definitely eat for $20. Decent liquor selection...

Service is great. Very friendly but the food wasn't very good. The best plate I had was the red curry. The ingredients weren't fresh. When they ask what level of spiciness you should have medium to high level of it. If not then your food will come out bland. Overall it is a pretty good dinner. Don't come in with high expectations but if it is your first time having Thai food then this is pretty good.

"Consistency meets authenticity for Thai food in Baton Rouge". I can go on and on of how much I love this place! Let me start by saying that it is a very homey feeling, like I was at my grandmother's house in the Philippines. To me, that is a great thing! Oh and the food; it's definitely made-to-order because it comes out fresh and piping hot each time! Because of this, there is a bit of a wait for the food. For Appetizers: I insist on the Thai Wings, probably the best wings I have had in Baton Rouge. You can never go wrong with any of their House Specialties, but to keep the flow of the un-boring, go with the Duck Pineapple Curry or any of the frog leg dishes. If you don't like spicy, make sure you ask what items carry even a hint of spice. Even though it does not have the chili pepper icon next to it, some dishes still pack a bit of heat. For vegetarians and vegans, you have options here and you will not be disappointed. The vegetables used in all their dishes are fresh and have that crrrrruunch that I love, when eating veggies. Do not walk in here expecting elegance because it's not. I love that this family-run business has kept true to their roots and kept the decor the way that it is. Come here expecting authentic Thai cuisine and you will experience it!

Thai and Japanese menus. A great option for the Sherwood Forest area. I haven't had any of the sushi yet, but the Thai has been pretty stellar. Closed on Tuesdays.

The Duck Pineapple Curry is my favorite Thai dish in Baton Rouge! It's really wonderful! The spring rolls are good, not great. The dumplings are yummy. My husband gets the pad thai which is good but not the best in town. But the star entree is definitely the duck pineapple curry. The Duck is crisp and plentiful and the curry is so flavorful. It comes with a ton of veggies which makes me feel a little better about eating my entire plate! Be warned though that if you eat it all you may not be able to walk out the door, it's a ton of food. I've also had the peanut curry which is also delightful. The decor isn't as flashy as Thai Kitchen but the prices are much better. The duck is on the high side but it's SO worth it. The staff is very attentive and kind. We had an issue with a take out order once and they were extremely apologetic and made it right. They're just a great establishment. I've eaten here almost weekly for the last year and I don't see that stopping anytime soon!

Food is excellent.. we got thai tea, chicken satay, tom yam soup, pad see ew and basil frog legs in spicy sauce.. so good!a must try place!

This is a nice locale...very friendly service and many of the herbs and spices that they use in the meals is grown by them on the restaurant property...I had never tried Thai food so wasn't really sure what to expect... The restaurant is smallish with about 14 4 top tables...the menu seemed rather overwhelming to me but eventually I settled on Beef in Chili Paste...not really sure what my sister, my niece or her boyfriend ordered...The menu listed spiciness of meals as a 1 to 5 and then stated you could also go beyond to "Thai hot"...We ordered a Tiger Tears salad at a level 3 for the table to share and it was sparky and delicious...next time in I'm gonna make that my entree...because of that sparkiness as a level 3 I chose that level for my entree but was disappointed when it was more sweet than spark... The meal itself was delicious and well prepared and I'm glad I stopped in and tried Thai food for the first time and will definitely give this place another try in the future but will go level 4 next time!!

Pretty great place for thai food! Had the chicken curry and tom yam soup with rice and it was filling, tasty and decently affordable. I also got the thai tea which is always tasty! They have a great system for spicyness. The mild medium and hot are exactly that. Many other thai restaurants will ask you if you want mild medium or hot and just do whatever anyways. At least thats the way it seems. Great service and very clean! Peace!

Went for lunch today. Had the cashew shrimp lunch plate and it was very good. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. My only issue was that the menu states you get an appetizer plus soup and salad. The waitress stated, however, that the choice was strictly between entree plus choice of soup or salad. Did not make a big deal about it but management needs to correct menu if appetizer is not supposed to come with entree. Overall, I was satisfied.

FOOD SMELLS ROTTEN!!! I ordered the pad se ew with chicken. When it came out, the dish smells rotten. Similar to rotten egg smell. It was absolutely disgusting! My friend ordered the basil beef noodle and it did not have that smell. Im certain that either the egg or the chicken was rotten. And I have ordered pad see ew in other thai restaurants, I know it is not suppose to smell like that. My friend also said he can smell the rotten odor from across the table. I called the waiter and she just said do you want us to make you another one? There was NO apology, no explanation, NOTHING! This is not acceptable! Read other bad review and you will find out im not the only one who got rotten food. DO NOT COME HERE!

Best Thai food I've had in Baton Rouge! We enjoyed the Pad See Ew, Panang Curry, Curry noodles and the fried rice.

It always seems that every time I'm craving pad Thai, it's on a Tuesday but they were closed?! I really do love the food here. It's made to order, is very tasty, and I personally think is the best hi food in town. The Tom Yum soup is especially delicious, and I could eat that every day and never get tired of it! The curry is always spiced perfectly for my taste: very spicy, but not overwhelming, and you can always ask for extra fresh chiles, dried chilies, or chili paste to be brought out on the side. I requent this restaurant a lot since it's close to my office, in the to go orders are pretty quick and they always take the tails of the shrimp off for me. My goal is to try everything in the menu at least once! Restaurant has come along way since the first open, and I enjoy seeing the progress of the exterior every time I drive by... The little creepy figurines in the bathroom have got to go though....

I have eaten at a lot of thai places in Thailand and around the country and this is by far the worst. If you've never had Thai food before you would enjoy it but people that know what good Thai food is avoid this place or be prepared for disappointment. The servers weren't able to handle the small lunch rush so service was poor.

I have tried many times in Duang Tawan. It has never disappointed me. the only problem is that it is a little expensive.

Have I really not written a review for Blue Thai yet? Oh - I guess it's not really Blue Thai anymore... a recent paint job means Duang Tawan looks much less run down and much more brownish-grey than blue. We come here on a regular basis for lunch with coworkers. You want to make sure you come with fewer than 6 people otherwise you'll be waiting a while... but otherwise it's a great place to get some tasty thai food. I haven't found another Thai joint that I like in the area, to be honest. The food is tasty, the portions are large, and the owners are very friendly. All lunch specials come with soup or salad, so it's a good deal. I particularly like their noodle soup, masaman, and spicy basil fried rice.

I have been coming here for lunch weekly for the past 7 months or so. The food is consistently delicious. The service is impeccable. This might be one of the best lunch deals in the town. They have a great variety on the menus, the portions are huge and the price is low. The soup and egg roll that come with the lunch plates are really tasty. The two ladies who work in the front are always very kind and attentive. I can't say enough good things about this place, I'll keep coming back every week.

Ordered the pad se ew and it was absolutely flavorless and dry. Will not go back again. I had ordered take-out, so just had to toss it and waste $10.

I love this place. I have been going there for years. The best Thai food in Baton Rouge.

Located in an older blue building at the corner of Sherwood and Coursey blvd. This place is a lot more than meets the eye. So far I've tried the Pineapple Shrimp Curry and a dish that is similar to Pad See Ew (I don't recall the name). Both dishes were absolutely amazing. The medium hot is just enough to require frequent refills on water but without leaving your mouth burning. During lunch, you also get Lemon Grass soup as an appetizer. It was wonderful as well. I cannot wait to go back and continue trying new dishes as I'm pretty sure you cannot go wrong!

I went here for lunch today and it was DREADFUL. I was really really excited because I saw the website and they have a great lunch deal (bowl of soup or salad and an appetizer, plus entree with your choice of meat for $7-9). So my sister and I walk in and I notice the first problem, we were one of 2 tables there. But we still think its a hidden treasure at this point so we didn't leave. We each ordered off of the Thai lunch menu and got the soup and appetizer. Well, the soup was delicious other than the very gamey chicken (odd right?) and the appetizer spring roll was 1 minuscule spring roll cut in half. Even after this though, I was still excited for the entree'. I ordered the basil noodles and my sis got the Pad Thai. While we were waiting, I heard the faint sound of a microwave beeping, which frightened me even more. As soon as it was set on the table, I knew we were in trouble. The food on both plates looked slimy and regurgitated to be honest and when we took our first bites, the impressions weren't much better. My dish had WAY too much anise or something similar and got gradually stronger as I continued to eat. After a few bites, the taste was so nauseating I quit eating (which I don't do. EVER.). Her pad thai was ok, but according to her it had the slight after taste of manure after a while. Needless to say, I strongly suggest not going Duang Tawan, but don't worry it may not an option for much longer, as we were leaving the TV cut off and said "Pay your bill now, or your satellite service will be discontinued." And another one bites the dust...

If you're looking for good Thai in baton rouge, this is your place. My first time going, I got the beef basil fried rice and it was magnificent. I ordered mine extra extra spicy. I got there a little after lunch time so the prices were higher, but I was really surprised with the mountain of basily beefy goodness presented to me. I absolutely stuffed myself with it and even though it was massive, I wanted more because it was sooooo good. I haven't been back to the restaurant, but have had people pick up other dishes for me since. The basil chicken is good as well, but nowhere near as good as the rice. I'm anxious to go back and try their sushi as well. When I went, the owner was kind enough to recommend a dish to me as I had 4 I could not decide between. Now that's service! They also have very good lunch special prices, unfortunately I am always working while they have these. I hope one day I can try them, as this place has never let me down. Despite the looks of the building, I would recommend this place to anyone. If you pay attention, you can see that there are dozens upon dozens of massive basil plants growing around this restaurant - these delicious herbs will likely make it into your dish! Now that's what I call fresh ingredients. Give Duang Tawan a shot, you'll love it.
