I ate here twice during a recent stay at the Oberoi Grand. The food was amazing- best Thai food I've had anywhere in the world. The service was also outstanding. The chef came to visit me both times during my meal and remembered what I had ordered the first time. He even cooked my a special veggie stir fry to... More

Had dinner in Baan Thai (Oberoi) with my wife. The restaurant looks very nice and staff are professional and friendly. The food was not bad but I certainly wouldn't describe it as authentic Thai cuisine, more like the indianised version of what Thai food should be. Complimentary starters were served and were excellent. As a first course I opted for... More

Had a good dining experience in a table whereby you sit on the floor with the table at ground level and your lower body is in a well underneath the table. Not all the tables are like this though. It can be a little undignified emerging after a full meal. I had a red Tahi curry which was very good.... More

Baan Thai is extremely good and authentic Thai food, albeit at the sort of 5 star prices you would expect in an Oberoi hotel. Of course, whilst it is expensive (very) for India, it is not for the Uk. We ordered several dishes and each was really very good.

High quality Thai cooking with polished service located in the Oberoi Grand hotel. The restaurant is full of carved wood and Thai art and it is easy to forget you are in a hotel. Many of the Thai dishing are very authentic with generous potions, although I would recommend avoiding the Indo-Chinese dishes (depended on individual tastes). The restaurant is... More

The ambience is nice and the seating arrangement too! You're welcomed by a Thai looking hostess and then the service is by the regular hotel staff who know the menu well and the chef sure serves good food. The one thing that I hated was the fact that instead of the authentic Thai rice they serve the regular Basmati variety... More

My husband and I visited this restaurant in November for dinner. We have been to Thailand on numerous occasions and are familiar with authentic Thai food. I have to say that I was impressed with the offerings at Baan Thai. I had pork with holy basil, and it did taste pretty much the same way it tastes in Northern Thailand.... More

Excuse my ignorance, but I cannot understand the high ratings for this restaurant: on an average Saturday evening in a half-empty restaurant with an average service (no sugar for the espresso), average food (the rice was only lukewarm) in a setting, which remembered me somehow the "Mitropa"-restaurant at the Sondershausen train station during its good times (at least), to pay...
