This is my go to Thai restaurant in this area. We go here for lunch and the waitress already knows what we're going to order. The food is delish. The service is wonderful, I gave 4 instead of 5 because if they'd remodel the place, forget it. They'd do even better. That's my 2 cents. Make it your go to place for Thai. Trust me.
Review Source:Meet some friends on Sat night at this Thai restaurant and I must say the food was very good. Â You must try the Curry Puffs with a sweet cucumber sauce appetizer. Â I had the Panang Curry with chicken which was tasty however the string beans looked a little tired not fresh, otherwise I enjoyed my meal. My friend had Broccoli with shrimp and the shrimp were a nice size and fresh, the only thing is the sauce looked like a broth base it should have had a thicker base.
 The only CON about this place is the restaurant needs to hire one another waiter / waitress to work the tables on a Sat night.  There were only two working on a Sat night so our service was slow, that may be good for during the week but not on Sat night.
All and all, I would go back to eat at this Thai restaurant since the food was good and it was worth the price. Â Also, the decor was very bright not a dark hole.
They make a delicious Bamboo Green curry with chicken. Lots of sauce with fresh jasmine rice comforts my soul each and every time I eat it. I worked in a Thai restaurant in Westchester and this was my favorite dish then and still is now. Bangkok Spice makes an almost identical green curry. So happy to have discovered this gem!
Review Source:Excellent pad Thai. Lots of vegetarian options. Don't let the shanty facade fool you. Once you walk in, decor is nicely adorned in a Thai style. It's a shame this place isn't in a heavier traffic location. I hope they stay in business for a long time. Get the Tom Yum, but ask for it spicy. If it doesn't make me sweat, it isn't spicy enough. Unfortunately, I didn't break a sweat, but I has lots of flavor.
Review Source:Best Thai in Northern Westchester. We always order take-out when we order dinner so we have something delicious to take home. Prices are about half what you will find in NYC but the food is just as good. The Curry House Special is my favorite along with their Tom Kha Gai soup.
The servers are exceptional!
Cons:
The menu is not as varied as NYC Thai restaurants
They tend to be a little light on the heat to satisfy local tastes, I don't find their dishes spicy enough for me so I always ask them to crank up the heat
Pros:
Very inexpensive, but nice portion sizes
Food is very fresh and flavorful
Service is very fast and they never rush you even when they are busy
In search of another Thai restaurant to add to our list of places to dine we figured let's give Bangkok Spice a try. Â The parking lot was dark and poorly lit but seemed to make up for the lighting with a bright lighting in the dining room. Â We were promptly seated and handed menus. Â For beverages I had a Thai Iced Tea which was mediocre and lacked the traditional sweetness that comes across at all of the other Thai restaurants I have had the pleasure of patronizing. Â The Summer Roll which was served for an appetizer was flavorless and missing the fresh taste that is associated with a summer roll. Â For my main course I had the Vegetarian Duck (Seitan) with Thai Basil Sauce. Â This dish was supposed to be a spicy dish but did not even have a hint of spice to it. Â The Imitation Duck (AKA imatatduck per the menu) was flavorless and the string bean where cooked into total submission. Â I must admit the dish did have a trace of basil flavor to it so that would seem to be the only part of the dish that fit the description given on the menu.
Review Source:One... two stars. Thus far I have no five star Thai place(s), so with regards to that... As others have mentioned, the blandness factor, the over priciness, and general passion for true Thai cooking came into play during our dinner there. Our appetizers of steamed veggie dumplings and Summer rolls, not very inspiring and I think the two sauces which accompanied each dish were straight out of the jar, so to speak.
My main course of tofu and veggie jungle curry was very watery, an experience I have not come across before in all of my Thaifoolery. It was like spicy dishwater, let's not go there. The broccoli was cooked too much and the pieces of tofu were just added as an afterthought without any harmony with the rest of the dish. The Jasmine rice was just there and was not particularly fragrant. But the service while hurried was polite and efficient.
I am still looking for that go to local Thai joint and while we are glad we gave them a try we will not be returning. At least the parking was easy!

I had had Spanish stars but yelp put my review in the SPanish section. WWT?
Food completely average Thai. . .didn't taste like homemade. . .but tasted pretty good. Â The summer rolls were awesome, yummy fresh basil/cilantro and very tasty peanut sauce. Â Curry Puffs were probably frozen and heated, but still tasty. Â Pad Thai and Pad Se Ew were passable, but nothing special.
Decent considering location and lack of other ethnic food around.
Atmosphere was vaguely diner-like, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Service was quick and cheerful.
Bangkok Spice, you are yum.
The clear soup was my favorite part of the entire meal. Â I would highly recommend it. Â The chicken skewers were not as good as I thought they would be.
The entrées were pretty good.  I tried 3, but my favorite was the thick noodles with chicken- YUM!  (don't remember the name)  The pad thai was also decent.  One of the entrées was supposed to be spicy, but by no means would I say it it was spicy.  Luckily, if you really want some fire, just ask for some hot sauce and they will give you a little bowl. :)
For dessert, I would definitely recommend the mango sticky rice and the pineapple encased in rambutan. Â You will not want to share.
The place was empty when I went, so that may explain why the service was so good. Â Regardless, the lady who served us was very nice and attentive.
Overall, if you are in the area and want Thai, I would recommend coming here. Â I would eat here again.
Attention Northern Westchester: Are you sick of pizza? Â Mediocre Chinese food got you down? Â Fear not: you now have the option of Thai food!
With Thai food, you can never predict the spiciness threshold, even when given options of "Mild, Moderate, and Super-Spicy." Â Sometimes I feel as though there should be a mandated chili/grams of food metric to maintain consistency across all Thai restaurants. Â
Predictably, the spiciness factor at Bangkok Spice is in line with the palate of someone in this area who isn't a huge "risk taker," shall we say. Â Mild is extremely bland. Â It isn't until you get to the "Spicy" threshold that the food has some "kick" to it.
For starters, we ordered the Clear Soup and the Tom Yum Soup. Â The Clear Soup is the perfect hearty soup if you're sick with the flu - lots of white meat chicken and vegetables in a chicken broth. Â The tom yum soup had a good spiciness threshold but there were only three very small shrimp. Â I was expecting a bit more substance for the price ($5).
As an additional appetizer, we ordered the Thai dumplings. Â These were excellent - who would have thought we could find such balanced dumplings (dumpling to filling ratio) in our area? Â Once again, four small dumplings were fairly pricey.
For the main courses, we ordered the Bangkok Seafood and chicken Pad Thai. Â The seafood was loaded up with calamari, scallops, shrimp, and mussels. Â It would have been nice to have this dish a bit spicier, otherwise it is pretty bland. Â The pad thai was a bit disappointing. Â The chicken was overcooked and the noodles were very dry and not very peanut-y.
Thank goodness we ordered the pad thai because sticky rice was not provided as a side with our seafood. Â For $18, I would have expected some sort of accompanyment for the dish.
3.5 stars, but I rounded up for how exceptional our appetizers were.
Sooo delicious! Â Best restaurant in Shrub Oak, and on top of that I'll say best Thai food in Westchester County (I've been to most of them). Â Very clean, with a very nice staff.
Lunch specials are very reasonable with huge portions. Â I usually order Pad Thai or Thai Fried Rice. Â
For dinner, their curry dishes are excellent. Â My fiance is obsessed with the Jungle Curry. Â Mango curry was different in a good way. Â Oh, and the Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice....you won't regret it!
In a region of Westchester devoid of culinary delights, this is a much-needed, welcome establishment. Â
Eat in or take out, the food is equally generous and delicious. Â In fact, the vegetarian Jungle Curry has been so consistently delicious that I haven't gotten around to trying any other entrees. Â The thai iced drinks are consistently yummy and there is a selection of bargain-priced wines (go ahead and treat yourself!) to go with. Â My fiance has tried the other curries and gives his thumbs-up. Â Of course, spring rolls, summer rolls, and the house salad are all great starters.
Definitely the best thai food in this neck of the woods. Â For the price, you can't beat it!
What an unlikely place for such a fabulous restaurant. Â
The sweetie and I have been here multiple times and the food is always fresh, heaping, and absolutely delicious. Â Our favorites are the Papaya Salad, Roti Canal, and the Mock Duck. Â
The service is gracious and the food always arrives speedily, even on a busy Saturday night when almost every table was full.
The prices are really reasonable considering two people could share most of the entrees. Â
Bangkok Spice is a refuge in what is otherwise a culinary wasteland. (And the library is right down the road. Yay!)
