Bua Thai Cuisine - Poway

Amazing authentic Thai cuisine! Phenomenal dishes and great service

Bua Thai is one of my FAVORITE Thai restaurants in SD!! Their menu is very expansive with many super traditional dishes. Everything is made from scratch including many of their seasonings and sauces. You can taste the authenticity in every dish because the chef takes so much pride in her cooking.

Very good plates are large enough to share. Everything was tasty and plated so nicely. The calamari appetizer was a hit! Service was great. Will be going back!

This place is pretty small. But they have a few large tables that if you go with a big group you can sit at. It is rather easy to find. I went with the drunken noodles with beef spice level five. I felt like the noodles were really spicy for level five but it wasn't like that spice where you couldn't eat it. It was still very flavorful. I kept having to drink allot of water but still wanted to eat more! The meat was nice and tender and chewy. I had picked up yellow curry for my coworker too since she wanted Thai food and shes said it was very good. I saw her lunch portion and it's a pretty big portion for being lunch. Definitely going to be recommending this Thai place for all my coworkers now! I also got their coconut Thai coffee and yummy! I usually get Thai iced tea but this was something I haven’t seen on a menu before so I tried it and was not disappointed!!

Great place tucked away at the back of a shopping center. Amazing food and great spice level. We had 3 dishes and loved all of them our new favorite Thai food!!! Also don't get too full before dessert or you will miss out on an amazing dish.
