Beautiful Presentation Each dish is a feast for the eyes, adding to the dining experience.

Worst beef curry I ever had, beef is so dry and potato is too chunky to have any seasoning. They also forgot about our dessert; we still ask for it and got popo shaped rice instead of heart shown in the menu. People are nice thou.

Super cute hidden place. There is lots on the menu to try and what I’ve had has been delicious and plentiful! I love Kra Prow here❤️❤️❤️ just like Thailand with fried egg on top. So good Staff are awesome and friendly too.

This Thai restaurant is outstanding! As someone who frequently enjoys Thai cuisine, including in Thailand, I can confirm the food here is both authentic and exceptional. They’re incredibly accommodating with food allergies, proactively adjusting orders to ensure safety. See note in photo. Plus, the portions are generous. I wholeheartedly recommend this place—enjoy!

Thai food is difficult to do wrong, but I really appreciate a place like this that commits the extra bit of effort to making it exceptional. The exterior of the restaurant is rather unassuming, and even the interior is standard at best, but it's spacious and airy enough, leaving one comfortable enough to enjoy some delicious food. The beef noodle soup is particularly delightful, with the long stringy rice noodles contrasting with the hearty texture of the beef. Simply the broth by itself would be enough do you recommend a visit here, as it is sumptuous and flavorful. There are a lot of Thai food places in Boulder, but this is one of the best.

Great underground Thai spot in boulder, with all the typical dishes and a great lunch deal. It’s tucked inside of a building complex, located close to Colorado University. They have a great lunch special where you can get a dish, a drink, and an appetizer for a cheap price. The dishes themselves are filling and the portions are good. Lots of seating indoors, and the ordering staff are very nice. If I lived in the area, this would probably be my routine go to Thai spot!

I really liked eating here. The food was very good and they have a wide selection of items. I can't comment on how authentic the food is since I don't really know but I definitely enjoyed it. I had the cashew curry with tofu and it was delicious. I also liked the service here, since you seat yourself, you can take your time to decide on an order without feeling pressured.

Really good spot for Thai in Boulder. Food comes out quick and is consistently good. All the noodles dishes are excellent and they will customize the spice from mild to painfully spicy as you desire. One of my favorite options for lunch in Boulder. Thai iced tea is excellent as well

Saw the reviews and had to try it. The spring rolls and the beef Pad Thai were great. The food came out fast and the service was friendly. I will definitely eat here again.

It is absolutely criminal that this Thai place isn't closer to me. All my life I will forever be comparing every Thai restaurant to this one. They have an excellent lunch special that includes a meal of your choice with a spring roll and a drink for $18. It was a great deal but a ton of food- my husband and I could have shared for sure. I was devastated that they couldn't do a Thai tea decaf- most places can't, so I don't fault them, but I am dying for more places to offer decaf drinks. I ordered the Khao soi, which was amazing. So much flavor in the broth, with tender chicken and fresh vegetables mixing up the textures. My new favorite dish, hands down. My husband got the drunken noodles and our friend got a peanut dish, both of which were also excellent. Loved the simple decor, and the counter service was kind and patient while I asked questions about the menu. Highly highly recommend- I will absolutely be back next time I am in Boulder.

Pretty good Boulder Thai spot! Tried the khao soi, pad see you, and mango sticky rice. All were pretty tasty. I will say their service is really great!! The people working there are super kind and care a lot.

My first time visiting Folsom Thai and I am a fan! The restaurant has a clean, comfortable atmosphere. My meal was probably some of the best Thai food I have ever had. I ordered a package meal at lunch is served 7 days a week and includes a drink. The Thai tea was perfectly flavored! The peanut shrimp curry is delicious! I had to box up half of the meal because it was really a large portion. Definitely plan to visit again soon! My table mates were also impressed with the food!

Yelp
Wow! So delicious and kind and helpful staff. What could be better. My aunt took me because she loves the Khao soup and I got the Pad Woon Sen which was so flavorful! The protein was tender and the spice was right on point! Only Thai place I will be eating at when I'm boulder from now on!

Food and service is amazing. I don't ever eat out because I find most of the food in my area to be a bit overpriced and not of great quality but the food here is amazing and at a reasonable price. Ambiance is cute. Family/cozy and clean!

For the lunch special of $18, I got a Pad See Ew with chicken, one spring roll, and a pot of hot Jasmine tea. My colleague got pad thai with chicken. For an appetizer, I also got edamame. I came here for lunch at 11:50 on a Monday and 5 of the 12-ish tables were full, and there was also a steady stream of customers coming in to pick up food. The noise level was quiet enough to have a nice conversation, and I could bring a friend with hearing issues here. Some of the tables are right under the A/C vents, so I picked my table so that the air was not blowing directly on me. The whole place feels very clean and the tables were all wiped down. The Pad See Ew was delicious, I just wish it had a little more sauce. With chicken, which can be a little dry itself, I like my noodles more wet. I got medium level spice, which was consistent through the dish and kept a heat in my mouth for a few minutes and made my nose run a little, delightfully. The portion was big enough for me to take half of it home for lunch tomorrow. I would like to come back again and try something else.

Great food! Four dishes and we all said it was good to very good. Counter service with delivery to your table. Saw several delivery orders even at lunch on a weekday. Nice ambiance and able to talk and hear at the table. Definitely will go again when in the area.

High quality food for an excellent affordable price. Service was fast and helpful. Menu is well laid out with plenty of suggestions. Food tasted fresh and very fragrant and flavorful. I was really happy that I chose this place for lunch. Inside very clean and welcoming. Free WiFi. Definitely recommend!

The menu looked great, but the shrimp fried rice was not worth $20. While it was delicious, it was one portion size with no sides. Understandable Boulder prices, but lacked bang for your buck. Will return getting something else off the menu.

Ate here with our daughter coming in from out of town... the flavors were nice, could have come out in better time... deliveries were scattered and we were all eating at different times... over all tho, everyone enjoyed their meals... it's a little hole in the wall ish, a frequented restaurant that could use a good scrubbing, seats and table were a little bit tacky... would def go back for more... 4.3 stars

Best Thai food I have had in the area so far. Ordered Pad Thai and a side of edamame- portion of edamame seemed a little small for the price but was a perfect portion of Pad Thai for the price. Will definitely be coming back!

This place is just okay, and convenient. But the flavors are way way off traditional Thai. We are trying to go to all of the Thai restaurants in the area and this one was on the list. As a point of comparison, Busaba in Louisville is better and Mountain Thai in Broomfield is fantastic. If you feel like a road trip try Mountain Thai--better than Thailand!

Amazing Thai food. Worth the drive in. Loved the Pad See Eww. Best Thai Iced Tea around!

As someone that has lived in East Asia, LA, and the Bay, this is my go to spot for Thai Food in terms of taste and price. I usually get the pad see ew, the pad kee mao, or the Thai fried rice with the lychee rose tea. I LOVE that they don't hold back on spice when you ask for it. I'm very grateful to have access to good Thai food out here in Boulder I hope they stick around for a while!

A bustling restaurant in the downstairs of a building that also has a sushi restaurant. You know it must be good when most tables were taken and a line to order at the counter. We ordered an interesting appetizer of fish cakes, I forget the actual name as my friend ordered them. Served with a vinegar sauce with cucumbers and some lettuce, it was tasty but a bit dry. We split the pad see ewe ordering it medium hot. I initially wanted hot, the next level up, but catered to my friend who can't take the heat. In the end it was a good level of spice. One of the better Pad See Ewe I've had as it wasn't too greasy. We ordered it as a combo with chicken, beef, and shrimp. $16; very reasonable.

I was craving Khao Soi. Folsom Thai had Khao Soi. It was GREAT. I could've left it there, but there's a bit to expand on. It's a quaint somewhat hole-in-the-wall Thai restaurant in the lower floor of a split-level conglomerate of businesses. There's not much to say about its humble interior, as it's simple and to-the-point. As of this review (early 2023) they have a unique method of having you order at the counter, pay-up-front, and grab your own drinks and cutlery on your way to the table of your choice. Fine by me! Within a few minutes our food was brought out. We opted for drunken noodles and Khao Soi, my two go-to options when available at ANY Thai restaurant. They also have ramen and a few non-Thai options, but that's not why I came. Khao Soi absolutely hit the spot. Technically, traditionally, it would include chicken on the bone. But as a lazy foodie, I appreciate the easier chicken to inhale-- erm, I mean enjoy. The curry broth was phenomenal and my humble choice of mild spice level was right on the money for my pansy-level spice tolerance. Now, the drunken noodles were fine, but not the best I've had, nor even close. They satisfied the craving, but there was a lot to be desired with the combination of ingredients. I did get the combo, and the meats were all fine, but nothing jumped out much. The noodles were perfect, but that's about it. Still, it's a great place, with overall solid quality food. It's not the best Thai food I've had, but it's among the best in Boulder. And it's different enough from Aloy that I'll continue to go support both. Support local, am I right?

I ordered takeout for a diverse menu through the weekend. I usually order tofu + veggies in my Thai dishes and I was very disappointed by the low quantity of vegetables even though I paid extra for them. There were no mushrooms. Just a few medallions of carrots and a couple pieces of broccoli. The pas Thai was very dry. The order was done on time.

This was my first time in almost 10 years living here trying Folsom Thai. The food was fine. I got the red curry (pretty standard, nothing special), my friend got the tonkatsu ramen ("tasty, but in general underwhelming"). The low rating was for service. I ordered for takeaway through yelp. After an hour waiting for the confirmation that the order was completed, I called, and the young woman who answered was like, oh, that's been sitting here for 20 minutes. okay. So, I walk over and when I arrive at the business the door is locked from the outside... when i knocked several times the young woman did not even look up, but rather a nearby customer had to get up from his meal to let me in. there were only 3 people in this small venue to begin with and no ambient noise, not music was even playing. Honestly, for the same amount of money, Alloy Thai is not that much farther (maybe 2 square blocks?) and you get a much MUCH nicer environment and service experience. I would have walked away at the door, but the bill for 2 lunch entrees +20% tip was almost $40. what a joke.

Simply the BEST Khao Soi I've ever had - I'm addicted. Tried the Tom Yum soup for the first time today - very good - felt healing. Can not go wrong with the pad thai either. Great foodie find in Boulder.

The best Thai food in Boulder County! I've tried at least 10 other Thai restaurants in the area, and Folsom Thai is the best by far. Service is nice and friendly. I just wish that there was table service and a more stay-for-a-while atmosphere so that I could go to Folsom Thai with friends and family from out of town. Ambiance-wise, you'd stay at Folsom Thai slightly longer than a Chipotle. Great food, great service!

Best pad thai ever!!!!!!! Only complaint is that the parking lot is super chaotic. Otherwise, one of my favorite restaurants in boulder.

Carmen H.

Yelp
Delish!! Good portion sizes and super flavorful. Pad Thai was excellent, massaman curry was also a hit. Spring rolls were served warm instead of cold, which I enjoyed, and the peanut sauce was rich and creamy. Would definitely recommend that you order a spice level higher than usual...after all, we are in Boulder! My Thai hot was just medium. :-)

Isabelle P.

Yelp
Veg/ tofu pad thai was average. Drunken noodles were below average, "very oily, not much flavor, just oil". And just so you know the tofu is fried and according to my partner "tasted like cat pee"!

Judy O.

Yelp
Very good and reasonable prices. Large portions. Food is ordered at counter and brought out, extremely casual. Would be better for take-out for us.

I ordered delivery via Grubhub and overall was happy. The pad Thai was delivered warm, the spice level was just right (hot but not overwhelmingly so), and the dish was tasty. I would have preferred some more sprouts and a bit less oil which is why this isn't a 5 star review. But overall I enjoyed my meal and would recommend this place at least for delivery.

I was craving Thai food during a trip to Boulder and found Yelp reviews for Folsom Thai that were pretty good. I ordered the Panang curry with beef, which was a bit more watery than what I'm used to. However it tasted light and the rice was fluffy in a good way. The crab cheese wontons were a sized good portion. The dipping sauce was a bit more on the sour side, but overall OK.

Yea, it's good. This place may even beat what most of us consider the top Thai around the area, (Thai cafe in Edgewater). Food is always good at Folsom Thai. Spice level is what you would expect for the level ordered. Defiantly on my frequent list.

In from Taos looking for some decent Thai. Their rating on Yelp is what drew us to trying their curries and fried rice. We were incredibly disappointed in the bland flavor from dishes that are typically anything but. Took to go, so no review on service. Just very disappointed in the product.

I love supporting small business owners. Even better when they are so happy and and nice. My coworker and I had a work event in the area and stopped by here for lunch. The owner was one of the happiest people I've seen in a awhile. We shared the drunken noodles with beef and pad Thai with tofu. Both were tasty. And if you ask for spicy it'll definitely have a kick! I also had their Thai tea which was authentic. Service was super quick. Nice find in the area.

I have gotten 3 dishes and the wontons from here It was all delicious but to me the chicken pad Thai is a masterpiece! It's delicious and healthy! I've had many pad thai dishes that are good but very oily or even brown from some sauce. This pad thai is clear, not oily, and taste to good!

I don't normally give bad reviews, but this place didn't deserve the 4.5 star rating it has. The Pad See Ew was basically flavorless, and the red curry wasn't much better. The tofu had a good texture, but really no flavor. I've never eaten out in the area due to COVID and recently moving to the area, but I don't even see how this has 4.5 stars.
