Amazing authentic tasting, delicious Thai food!
Beautiful place with delicious food and yummy cocktails. I loved how flavorful every dish was. I especially loved the tofu pad thai and spring rolls. The lychee lemonade was refreshing.
Everything meal that I’ve ever ordered here has been good, but I crave their curries. They are excellent!! First class! I found the service prompt and there are very sweet servers here.
I had the drunken noodle stir fry with prawns and it was really flavourful. The spring rolls were good but kinda small for $9. Overall the food is delicious, cooked hot to order and crave-able.
Delicious and authentic! I was surprised to see dishes here that a lot of Thai restaurants don’t routinely have on their menus eg. boat noodles. We tried the panang curry, kuay tiew tom yum, and chicken wings and everything was fantastic.
Love the atmosphere and ambience of this restaurant. We got here during lunch hours and so we ordered their lunch specials. Spent about $18/entree for a lunch special, which i think is a bit high but food is good and portions are okay, although I wish curry portions were a lot more than a tiny bowl because it was delicious! We'll definitely come back if we happen to be in Nelson BC. area next time.
Hit the spot! Looking for some Thai food when visiting Nelson? Compares to some of the best I've had coming from Vancouver. Bang on, thumbs up, chef's kiss 🤌🏻*we are guilty of diggin' in before snapping photos* Papaya salad, spring rolls, crab fried rice, and dessert!
Food is surprisingly good in a small town. The server is pleasant and greet us right away when we sat down. Pad Thai is not easy to make it good. It’s easy to get too oily or too sticky but this restaurant is doing a good job!
A lovely dining area in a historic building sets the stage for a really nice experience at Busaba Thai Cafe. Friendly and prompt service makes you feel relaxed and appreciated as a customer. I had the iconic Pad Thai dish and it was delicious. Flavourful but not too spicy. And the "Thai Iced Tea" was great. Top quality Thai food in Nelson and a great dining experience!
