Unfortunately, they are closed due to fire damage. According to LSJ they had an electrical fire in June and are closed for repairs. I hope they reopen very soon!

Went today at 12:15. Place was closed. Wood across door. Anyone know if it will open again? There was wood across the front door too. Not sure what to think.

Low key - This place slipped my radar several times as I pass by the joint regularly when I visit my friend who lives less than a quarter mile east. The dining area reminds me of typical economy asian restaurants/diners. A slew of tables with not many people around. The service seemed like family owned. Very casual and heavily accented. Very friendly as well. The menu was grand and someone like me, who wants to try everything, was overwhelmed but I settled on something that my tastebuds could handle. The intro was a broth soup with onions and a dumpling or two. I apologize for not knowing the name. The soup could have been my meal, it was perfect and soothing. I'll be back here mid winter. My main course was medium heat. Of course I don't remember the name of the dish, but I do remember the heat and flavor. Thai food, GOOD thai food has both. I had to take it slow and steady. My friend had the well known pad thai at low heat. The taste was a sweet spice and I spent more time digging my fork into his plate than my own. I used his dish to settle the heat. Servings were plentiful, I took my dish home, this was recommended because my host noted the heat would simmer after reheating and the flavors blending. It did but it was still fire. The rice wasn't my favorite, I like a stickier variety but it did the job. Oh and their Thai Tea one of the best out there, I've only had about 4 but this one takes number 1.

Absolutely one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Lansing. I love coming here for lunch. The waitress is so funny and friendly. It blows my mind that she can remember exactly how you want your food. I usually get medium, till one day my lips, gums, and teeth were burning. I told the waitress it was too hot and she said the peppers were at their peak and she made me a new dish, no problems. One of my favorite things to get here is the spring rolls with this amazing sauce that comes with it. I'm not sure what they put in this sauce but it's A1! Also make sure you try the cucumber soup. It's so simple and refreshing.

I hate to write this review because I truly believe that Bangkok House is the best Thai restaurant in the Greater Lansing Area, however there have been some issues as of late with their service. They renovated the restaurant a little while back so it is much more aesthetically pleasing. I still get takeout, typically, so the décor didn't matter much to me. Bangkok House is a family business and they typically only have one worker on the floor, she takes orders in the restaurant and via telephone, delivers food to tables, rings people up and even helps in the kitchen at times. They really need to hire more staff. Two months ago, I called ahead for takeout and was told it would be 30 minutes. I arrived on time and there was a line nearly out the door. We were all waiting for our orders and the poor worker was running around like crazy since the dining room was full too. I waited another 30 minutes in the restaurant for my order. An hour for takeout is pretty obscene. Then just this week, I ordered takeout again. I ordered spring rolls and chicken gang ped, hot. The lady repeated the order back to me on the phone and told me it would be 10 minutes. I showed up, she repeated the order to me again, handed me the bag, and I paid. There was no one in the restaurant at the time I picked up my food. I got home and I had an order of spring rolls and beef masaman curry. It was good but it wasn't what I wanted/ordered. I guess from now on, I'll be checking my bag before I leave.

Delicious and flavorful food! Good prices, big menu, and very nice (although busy at times) staff. Get mild if you want a little kick, medium if you like heat and spice, and hot if you want to sweat. Please try this place! It's fairly run-down and kind of dingy but the food..oh the food.. it is the best Thai I have had in Michigan. I love you Bangkok House, and I truly appreciate all your hard work!
(4)Troy B.
A very tasty meal, I had to go with my 'no fail dish' Pad Thai. Ordered Hot and it could have had more bite. I recommend getting the spice rack so you can kick it up. Dinner came with Sweet & Sour soup. Ordered an appetizer, Giew Tod, minced chicken in a won-ton wrapper then deep fried.
(4)Ana P.
It was by far the worst Thai food I have ever had. I've ordered pad see ew at numerous other Thai restaurants and I have never seen it that disgusting. The food was inedible because it was pure sugar mixed with soy sauce. Their food is either salty or sweet. I was literally sick to my stomach that night. Will never go back and will not recommend. We had a couple of bites and asked for our check. The waitress asked if we wanted a box for the food that was hardly touched. When we said no, she didn't even ask how the food was and immediately brought our check. Horrible!
(1)Andy B.
I've eaten at just about every Thai restaurant in Lansing and many more throughout the country, and this place is definitely in my top 3. Their interior and exteriors are newly remodels and the dining area is clean. The Pad Thai, Pad Kee Mao and the red curries are fantastic and the prices can't be beat. Most dinners run about $8.00 (a couple more dollars for seafood). The spring rolls are also a favorite of mine, and they run a couple dollars for two. If you like hot at most Thai restaurants, go for the extra hot here.
(5)Gary H.
Every dish is Thai hot, if you're one of those "not too spicy" people just stay out. The Tom Yum is so delicious. This is the most consistent food in Lansing, I've never had a single item served any different from any other trip. Love it. This is the place I always take a friend to see how good the food is in the Greater Lansing area
(5)McSaddle X.
I was crestfallen when I came for an early dinner at 3:00 PM and found them to be closed. Finally, I tried one of their curries, ordered extra spicy, and was not disappointed. Often my caucasianess leads restaurant owners to deny me real heat in my Eastern Cuisine, but not here. This is the best Thai I have had in the Lansing Area. You are a fool if you live here and fail to give it a try.
(4)Kati P.
Mine and boyfriend's favorite place to go after class. Always delicious, always good service. Such a hidden gem!
(5)Mystiq P.
Wow! Such a hidden gem and it's just down the street from my house. Had the veggies in coconut milk, the fillet fish with chili sauce and a taste of the seafood platter/combo. Everything good good good... Even the following day as leftovers!!
(5)Kevin P.
Mehhhhhh. This place isn't anything special. The service sucked, and the shrimp tasted a little fishy. It's in no way awful, but i'm probably not going to go there again.
(2)Cathy W.
Best thai food I've ever had. I always intend to explore the menu more but I have to get pad thai every time I go, because it's that good.
(5)Terry V.
We ate at Bangkok House several years ago and really enjoyed it. We ate there again last night and thought the food quality was Ok, but not as good as it was some time ago. Overall, I would say the food just didn't seem as fresh as before. Sauces were heavy and uncharacteristic of Thai.
(3)Lorraine H.
Pleasantly surprised to return after dining elsewhere for weeks that the lady (I call her Mrs. Bangkok House) remembered me and also quoted my usual order to me as I was being seated and asked if I wanted the same. She had it down pat, right to the spice level and beverage. What a pleasant woman. We chatted a bit about the upcoming bridge construction that will heavily impact her business, and I told her to make sure she attends the meetings and speaks her mind about traffic flow, etc. on Saginaw. She thanked me. Then because I was feeling so good, a lady soldier was dining at the next table, and talking to her friend about the Christmas gifts she'd gotten for her little girl. I was touched, and decided to anonymously pay for her meal. I'm glad I did. Please remember during this holiday season, and all throughout the coming year, to remember our men and women in uniform, whether they are here or serving overseas. This one's for Staff Sergeant Kevin Lee in Afghanistan. I love you, buddy.

The Tom Yum soup was very good. I can't say the same about the rest. The Pad Thai was just so so. I really hate giving lesser reviews to small, family run places, but come on Bangkok House, you can do better.
(2)Gina V.
I was really looking forward to some good Thai food after reading the great reviews this place got. Maybe it's because I'm from California...but I thought this place was awful. The food wasn't fresh and the restaurant itself was dirty. Kinda felt grimy when we left.
(2)Niki V.
Very disappointed - I was so looking forward to eating good Thai food. I ordered Satay - which is usually grilled chicken - I guess at Bangkok House they fried their chicken. For my entrée; I had Garlic Beef - my beef once again was deep fried (they sure like to deep fry their food) and then stir-fry with garlic. I've had better.
(2)Gary H.
A group of eight had dinner here on a Friday night. The food was delicious, but service was not attentive to our group. I will definitely return but be prepared for slow service. The #2, pad prik with coconut, curry, eggplant, and mushrooms is very tasty. I ordered medium spicy and it was perfect for my taste.
(4)Catherine G.
A great little place in downtown Lansing. I love their Pad Prik - great sauce and vegetables and tofu are always perfectly done. Prices are reasonable, and the customer service just depends on who you have, how well they speak English and how much of a hurry they're in. They have a small staff, and it can be pretty crazy in there during the lunch hour rush.
(4)Eric E.
Best heat!
(5)Erin K.
Best Thai I've ever had, especially in the Lansing area. I can't believe this place is so unknown, it was empty when we there for dinner. The decor is a little outdated but it was clean, the food made up for everything. They obviously use fresh authentic ingredients. We got soup with our meal that we didn't even expect, it had a wonderful flavor. Everything was a little spicy. I ordered the Pad Thai mild and was extremely pleased. My husband had the Pad Ped medium and it was extremely spicy but had amazing curry and coconut flavor. We also ordered the chicken wing appetizer which was also good, crispy fried chicken with a sweet dipping sauce, we probably won't get it next time. We will definitely be back!
(5)Tim M.
The Bankok House is your typical Thai cuisine restaurant with better than average food and just the right pricing. The food is always spicy and well cooked. We've never had a complaint, it's always exactly what we expect for the money. Best Thai takeout in Lansing. I wish I had more to say about it...
(4)Nick B.
The Pad Thai with pork was very good. Most inspired thing to order at a Thai restaurant? No. However, I like the dish and it makes comparing Thai places easy. The medium wasn't hot enough for me, but a dish of chili sauce was produced when asked. Other food: The deep fried spring rolls were excellent and seemed to be made in house. The chicken wings were fried perfectly, but needed the sweet chili provided. Spouse's Pad Khing was very flavorful, unfortunately light on the beef, and the snack cupboard was raided later in the evening. Table service is OK and very friendly. Servers are also responsible for handling the take out orders and may be hung up at the counter for a bit. We'll be back and willing to experiment.
(4)Mari C.
My favorite restaurant in the city. I normally order the Pa Nang and Pad Kee Mao. I get them both with tofu. They are absolutely amazing. The sauces they make are incredible. Also a great place to get a cheap drink with your dinner. They've recently updated the restaurant. Truly is a hidden gem in Lansing.
(5)Michael C.
This is a very low key and unpretentious place in downtown Lansing, but it was my introduction to Thai food when I lived there and it's always what I end up comparing everything else to.
(5)Mallory H.
Not only was this bad Thai food, this was the worst food I've EVER eaten at a restaurant. We ordered pad se ewe and chicken panang curry. The pad se ewe was almost black and tasted like soy sauce and sugar dumped over noodles. It was so sweet that it was inedible. The curry was thin like a broth with no veggies except peas and was extremely salty. I did like the soup that came with the meal however it was extremely salty as well. The service was fast and the waitress was nice until she saw that we obviously didn't like the food and then proceeded to ignore us for the remainder of the meal. Will never come back here again.
(1)Jon T.
I like supporting Bangkok House because everyone is really friendly, they always seem happy to accommodate and certainly appear to be small business owners unless there's a chain I'm unaware of :) The food is between average to good. It's not the best Thai I've ever had but it's close to home so it works. My personal favorite there is the Pa Nang....it's the best thing I've had from them out of the 6-8 entrees I've tried. My only recommendation, if you like spicy, get it as spicy as possible. It's good, it just doesn't stack up with the heat I've had in the past.
(3)Andy L.
Simply the best Pad Thai in the whole world. And I mean including many places in Bangkok!
(5)Nelli T.
Love this place! My boyfriend and I go there very frequently and we're besties with the watiress/owner now. She brings out the spice tray without even asking! The Tom Yum soup is (sorry) very yummy, and the portion is enough to share with 2-3 people. I really like the Praram Longsong with Chicken and we usually also order the terrible, but extremely cheap 'cabernet sawagnon,' which suits us just fine. The food is very authentic, they don't hold back on the spice, and they are very kind to regulars. Great price, great food. Definitely the best and cheapest Thai food in the lansing area.
(5)Jay J.
My American friends seemed to like this restaurant, however, I'm expecting a good Asian food since I am Asian. In my opinion this is the WORST Thai restaurant in Lansing area. The place is really old and run down. The lunch specials, while cheap, all looked and tasted very similarly (chicken/beef with peas, green pepper, sprouts, etc with almost identical sauces), and were served on billious blue plates. I will not go there again.
(1)Ed C.
A total hidden gem and the best vegetarian Thai food in Lansing. Every dish I've had has been fantastic. Anything with their peanut sauce is the best, though. It's not authentic (they owners are Vietnamese, for what it's worth), but its delicious. Also, they do takeout and its super quick.
(5)N L.
Wonderful family-run place. Very affordable and generous portions. The owners are sweet and caring and take pride in their food. I recommend the green curry!
(4)Rob Y.
I haven't been to Bangkok House in years.. but I've been taking my son out for Thai in Kzoo and was hoping to find a decent place in Lansing. We found it last night. It was terrific. I had a dish with chicken, mushrooms, egg plant all in a coconut sauce that was great. (#2 on the menu of entrees) I ordered 'medium' heat and it was plenty for me. My dining companion had some other dish with no coconut sauce and it was too hot for her to eat. We switched dishes to appease her ravaged tongue. She also got medium heat and said she would go mild next time. Sissy! The spring roll was tasty, hotter than hot temp wise and a chicken broth they led with was also very good. My compliant, if any, was pacing.. she brought the rice out, steaming hot, well before the main dish. I am so glad I revisited Bangkok House. It was well worth the gamble
(4)Adrian B.
This is one of Lansing's hidden gems. It's just a small restaurant, located near downtown, but it's so very delicious! The service is a bit slow, but if you like Thai food... especially *spicy!* Thai food, then you should definitely visit Bangkok House.
