What People Are Saying About Bangkok Blue Thai Restaurant

The Scene – International tourists, business types and Thai-loving students break here from shopping on Newbury Street, networking at the nearby Hynes Convention Center or studying at the nearby Boston Public Library. Tiny green lights hanging over tiled tables and floors, accentuating the small and somewhat trendy greenish-blue room. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out on a handful of sidewalk tables bathed in natural lighting. – – The Food – Locals exalt the noodle and curry dishes especially. Flavorful drunken noodles (tofu, chicken or seafood over stir-fried rice…

authentic flavors, right price
by foodie512 at Citysearch
I have been to Bangkok Blue a few times, as it is convenient to my work place. The service is fast, flavors far more authentic than other Thai places I have tried (innumerable), and they don't use MSG (I asked!). Considering the Copley location, the prices are very reasonable.
The best part is that they have a menu for the American palate and a menu for the Thai palate. If you want to try dishes not available in most Thai restaurants, just ask to look at the Thai menu, it has English translations. My favorite is the fried cat fish salad.
- Pros: Steps from Copley T, Authentic menu, Alfresco dining
- Cons: Hard to Park

The Details on Bangkok Blue Thai Restaurant
Where to Sit:
Tables along the front windows or on the sidewalk afford some of the best people-watching in Boston, but they're very popular. Call ahead to insure a spot.
Know Before You Go:
Many spicy dishes default on the side of scorching hot. Specify your preferred spice level upon ordering to avoid receiving a dish too hot to eat.
The Extras:
Ask the chefs to steam your tofu instead of frying: They're happy to oblige.
