So far so great. All I got for my first time was bunch of different soups for takeout and every one of them is delicious. I’ll be back to try more

Absolutely outstanding food, service, and ambiance! I bought dinner here recently and it was so good that I bought another. The Tom Yum and Pad Thai were fantastic!

Food was delicious, spices just right, generous portions, good atmosphere, personnel seemed to be shorthanded.

Super slow… took 40 minutes to serve one appetizer.The whole chefs special section was out of stock, chicken satay was out, beef noodle soup was out! It’s on a Friday night!The waitress also took the order wrong! We ordered a yellow curry and she took it as a green curry.Won’t visit again.

Overall Rating: .9/10 - STAY AWAYThis is by far the worst overall rating given to any restaurant to date. As a local guide who has been to countless authentic Thai restaurants around the country, not just Raleigh, this place is by far the least authentic and has the worst pineapple fried rice I could have ever experienced. Imagine being hungry and your plate is so bad, that one cannot eat it. The worst part is, the waiter who realized I didn’t eat the rice plate asked twice on how the food was. After what I thought was a good conversation with the server, I left it in her hands to make it right. She gave me $3 off the already crazy high priced $20 pineapple fried rice plate. I paid $17 dollars for 3 bites of a disgusting plate. This is just flat out disrespectful.There are other things that were very wrong, but I refuse to state them because they have not earned the respect to get better. They will continue to do as they do and they WILL close their doors because of these issues.

Service is a little slow (they only had one waitress working. But the food is totally worth it. Anytime I’m craving authentic Thai this is the go to spot.

Even though this place has been open for a while, we finally stopped in on a weekday night after deciding to go out for Thai. For some reason, I thought they were a more upscale Thai restaurant since they had a bar. Maybe that was pre-COVID or they changed their model, but it's pretty much a regular Thai restaurant now with casually dressed servers. We enjoyed spring rolls and my wife enjoyed her papaya salad. I was in the mood for soup and ordered the beef noodle soup, which if I'm honest, was more like a watered down pho. I was hoping for something with more a Thai flavor profile. It wasn't bad, just not what I was expecting. Next time I'll order something else.

Food is great, as are portion sizes. I also really like that their pick-up order time estimates are really accurate. Food is always just coming out when we arrive.

I visit many of the restaurants in Sutton Station. Would say Bua is least frequented because they are closed during lunch.Only ate here once. This experience …Slow service. Took an hour to make an appertizer and noodles. Three tables got their food ahead of me. Was told food was almost done but waited an additional 7 minutes. On top of that they made the dish wrong. Maybe they were having a bad day.Could have offered me a water or drink as my back broke while sitting for an hour.Avoid when hungryCome if you want to be patient
