Haven't had Thai food in a very long time. Remember that I enjoyed it previously. Any suggestions locally? Anyone tried the Thai cuisine at Asian Gourmet and Sushi Bar in Gahanna?

It's probably a bit out of the way for most people, but I remember reading a while ago that Thai Orchid was considered by many to be the best Thai in town. I don't eat there as often as I'd like, but the few times I've been there have been great.

Thai Orchid on Sawmill Rd is probably the best.
The best all time was Thai Village located on Goodale across from Big Bear. Unfortunately, I close 8 or 9 years ago. I introduced more people to Thai at that restaurant. I was and is a shame that it no longer exist.

Bangkok on Refugee Road. Do a search on this site for it. It's many folks favorite.

I second Thai Orchid. Not as much Thai to pick from as other cuisines, but I enjoy that place.

Thai Orchid is good, but Bangkok is the real deal- great *authentic* Thai food.
It is not, however, much for ambience...

Thai Taste on Kenny Road - back by Restaurant Japan - is actually pretty good Thai. Not much for ambiance either, but good stuff. I go for Burt's amazing roasted duck - but others that have gone with love the Thai there.

We drove past it for months before finally stopping in - never should have waited so long! Located at King and North Star in Grandview, in a converted ex-Tim Horton's - PS Thai Tai is darn good. Order at the counter, get served on styrofoam, put your trash in the can on the way out. It's definately not swank, but the food is quite good. We've had a number of their Thai dishes. Enjoyed the Thai spring rolls (3/$3), the yellow curry, steak salad and pad thai; the Tom Yum Gai is very good, too. We lived on it for a week when we had colds last month.
Here's a review of the place from Columbus Alive:

Enjoy,

I say Thai Orchid too...really great, but really far. Thai Basil Seafood at Hunan House is good.

I don't know for sure, but I'd be surprised if it's the same owners. Thai friends of mine won't even think about going to Thai Taste, but won't miss an opportunity to go to Bangkok. Thai Orchid is the #2 choice generally... partly because of the BFE factor.

I have to go with Thai Lagoon on Schrock right across from Budweiser. It's inside a little hotel which is a bit of an unfortunate, inauspicious location, but the food rocks. :)

The place on Refugee is a dive as far as ambiance goes, but good food and friendly staff. They primarily serve an Asian American clientele (at least the few times I've been there).

Your post made me hungry for the B. A & I ate there tonight --can't believe we stayed away so long, except they're closed on Mondays which is when I'm typically in town these days. Their Pad Thai is terrific, the Thai Ice tea is a real treat, and I just had their wonton soup for the first time and it's great!

That's because it's real Thai food, not Americanized for (sorry) white people!
This is not saying anything against those other places --I've never been to any of them...

We tried out Thai Lagoon last Thursday, and it was great! There were 3 of us, and we were all very pleased with our meals. Will definately go back. The hotel is a little sketchy but once you get past that and the playdoh smell, you'll be good to go.

Theres a new Thai place in Pickerington I tried for lunch the other day.
Best Chicken Satay I've had ANYWHERE.
Lunch came with a small salad with a nice ginger dressing.
Got the Green Curry (chicken) which was said to be spicy, which it wasn't and the curry had fresh anise in it - which I thought was nasty.
Still nothing messing with Bangkok though.
