This place offers the nearest to authentic thai food. But they probably, to match the taste of Pakistanis, don't cook it spicy enough.

Baan Thai is located on 2nd lane in Zam Zama area of Defense Housing Society. A dinner for two would cost about $25. Their soups are good. Food is good but not great

When I went to Baan Thai (House Of Thai) I was greeted kindly by the service and was treated to a delicious meal that was very affordable. My favorite is the red snapper fish and the Chicken Waan Tons. If you are craving anything, you want to crave Baan Thai! The indoor decor, was very nice and seemed like a... More

Ever since we started dining there we got addicted to it, specially their green curry is matchless. The restaurant is owned by a friend who himself goes to Thailand to bring spices and other condiments during the month of RAMADAN (when the restaurant is closed every year). Their coconut ice cream is the best in town.

Interior decor was very high, so was table layouts. We unfortunately were greeted with dirty dishes that we had to request changing. Waiters were not aware to take away empty dirty dishes to make place for new dishes ordered. Waiters seem more caught up with TV than putting any job satisfaction by way of relating to customers. No greetings on... More
