This is one of my favorites places to eat in Poway. Food is delicious and fresh. Highly recommended.

Everything was so great! I can’t count how many times I said “mmmm ?.” The Tom yum and Tom car soups were so flavorful and appetizing (10/10). The green curry had a nice kick to it and the chicken was well cooked (7/10 - watery, and lacked that intense green curry flavor but had an excellent hint of lemongrass. Also a drawback was that they did not sell rice with the curry and charged extra for rice which was a little dry). The Thai iced tea was a great way to wash down the spice. The service was fast and attentive and our waiter was very nice. I definitely recommend coming here!Unfortunately, there is no cocktail menu. They had a ton of mocktails but no cocktails!! They only served beer and wine and did not allow wine sampling. Of their two wine options, the cab sauv was mediocre.Overall, everything was very well priced. Keep in mind, they do not accept American Express.

Food is delicious and has lots of flavors. Price is reasonable comparing to other places in the area. Staff is very attentive. However, the rice was outdated so we asked for a bowl of fresh one and paid $2.

The salmon we ordered smelled like it was expired. When we told the manager she gave us attitude. Won't be going back there

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this Thai restaurant and I must say, it left quite an impression. Walking into the restaurant, I immediately noticed how clean and tidy everything was, which set a positive tone for the meal.While the service was decent, it was the food that truly stole the show. Every dish was bursting with flavor, showcasing the authenticity and skill of the chefs. From the aromatic curries to the perfectly balanced spring rolls, each bite was a delightful journey for the taste buds.Overall, my experience here was one to remember. The amazing flavors and inviting atmosphere have left me eager to return and explore more of their menu. If you're craving delicious and authentic Thai cuisine, look no further. I'll definitely be back for more!

Rad na had way too much carrots. Was decent but have better many times. Fried rice plates were fire! Spring rolls good. My noodles would not draw me back. if I return, fried rice for sure.

Honestly not much to complain. It does the job. The portions are mighty good and the spice levels can go real high if you like. From the Thai places I’ve tried this is one of my favorites. Although the fried chicken wonton apps were quite thin, they were pretty tasty.

This restaurant if you want to eat food in a romantic atmosphere. I recommend going Monday evening to Wednesday evening. It's a luxurious atmosphere. and not chaotic Moreover, your food will also taste good. And it's worth coming. But it is not recommended to go on Friday and Saturday evenings. The store is quite busy. The meticulousness of cooking will be less.

The food and service at Bua was so good!! We ordered a few dishes to share and everything was delicious. I just appreciate how kind they were. We were there during their pre-dinner prep time and yet they were so cordial. We will definitely be back.

Visited Dec. 1st 2023, ordered 5 dishes but only ate 3. First of all they took aver 30 minutes just to bring the only 3 dishes (Egg noodles) and the restaurant was not even full to take this amount of time. The taste was amazing so I love the food. I was waiting for the other 2 dishes (duck and curry) but never arrived so I asked the servers and they had no idea. Then they told me they forgot and If i wanted to wait longer for the food. I then said no and left the place still hungry. The food is good but they need to focus.
