Taste of Siam used to be my favorite restaurant, but perhaps in the shuffle of the closing announcement, then staying open, and now closing again, the food has considerably gone downhill. We usually get takeout every other or so. The pad Thai has been getting worse and worse. It tastes like something made and reheated from a supermarket pouch. There is no garnish or bean sprouts. There were five sad chicken nugget-sized pieces of chicken which I had to really turn it around to even find. Even the wonton soup, which usually really hits the spot, was now messy and the wontons effectively dissolved in the soup, with the dough just floating around. Good memories of this place, but I think I’ll stick to Jasmine from now on.

The food is always amazing here! Their Pud Thai is the best around. The service is always a bit slow, but they manage to get things out to you in a timely manner. I also love how casual this place is, it has a nice little outdoor space and an upstairs great for big events

Good selection of Thai food. Friendly service. The setting and environment seemed a bit dated.We ordered tom yum soup with shrimp, red/yellow curry w/ chicken, chicken fried rice and shrimp spring rolls. Food tasted reasonably good.

If you're looking for an authentic Thai food experience, look no further. Taste of Siam did not disappoint us. First, the interior is open, with huge windows to let the sunlight in. Now the food. We had the fried wonton app which was out of this world. My entree was the sesame chicken which was like no other ive tried before. The coating was crispy and cooked perfectly. The portion was enough to feed 2! If you get a chance try this little gem in the heart of Elmwood village out. You won't be disappointed!

Tasty Thai food in the heart of the Elmwood village . Service was spectacular -very attentive. My appetizer was the Thai fried wontons (with pork and shrimp) - crispy but was expecting more filling (was pleasantly surprised that they only charged me half price though -Happy Hour special!) . I decided on the basil fried rice with beef entree -$22 was a bit pricey but Damn -when I saw the presentation and portion I was blown away ! The most tender beef and flavorful rice I have ever tasted ! I am drooling just thinking about it . Easily two servings. My friend who recommended this restaurant said the lunch prices and portions are quite reasonable . I really think I found my new favorite Asian restaurant! 5 stars !

As a Thai customer, I ordered Pad Prik Khing and I got like this. Even it taste good but it did not look like Prik Khing AT ALL. I did not know what this dish should called. I showed this picture to my Thai friends. None of them guess correctly ?

PRE - COVID ...Absolute favorite Thai in Buffalo... I would eat here almost once a week. Either getting Pad Thai or Red Curry with an app of spring rolls. The portions are so big you can split btw two people and be completely satisfied. The meals are legit the same every time you order, super consistent!! POST - COVID .... (hence the 4 stars)I ordered my weekly curry and it was honestly the grossest thing I ever had... like it had soy sauce in it, none of the same vegetables, etc I hadn't gone for a long time after that, being it was my favorite and was so disappointed in their previous perfect streak. I recently tried it again, to my husbands urging and it was good. Not quite what it used to be, but not anything like their one mess up. Overall the food is very good, servers are very friendly, prices went up, but so did the worlds...Worth a try if you are in the elmwood area lookin for a good Thai meal

Very average food. My food was cold when I got it and they go serve me large portions but they have tasteless food. I will never be back.

Speedy service and friendly staff. I like getting the lunch specials but although their menu says you can sub out the fried spring roll for a fresh roll, they didn't allow me to do that. I have enjoyed the sesame chicken and Pud Thai.

Still the best Thai food in Buffalo. We go here every almost weekend and recommend it to everyone. Fast service, friendly staff, big portions and the owner, Bobby is delightful. Two big thumbs up!

I had the red curry and the vegetable rolls. The rolls are good, the two sauces are unique specially the peanut one. The red curry is nothing but AMAZING. The vegetables are cooked perfectly and crunchy, the flavor of the curry is on point, it’s creamy texture with a kick of heat. It’s my first visit here but I highly recommend this restaurant.

Been coming for 3 years, usually love their food and usually have nothing to complain about, however my most recent take out experience was concerning. My sesame tofu turned out to be sesame chicken. Didn’t realize until I took a bite unfortunately. This is a dietary concern and I would just triple check what you are served.

By far the best Thai food I have ever had. The Phad Thai was incredible. They use fresh peppers from their garden to season everything. The Thai fried wontons were delicious. The meals were incredible. Hands down best meal I've had in buffalo.
