Bua Thai / 12378 Poway Road Poway, CA 92064
Located in a modest strip mall the interior is larger than it appears from outside.
Carefully decorated with beautiful fabric chair patterns, a glass wine cabinet and lovely porcelain treasures displayed on a wood shelf.
In addition to my main dish (mango chicken curry) I ordered chicken dumplings and Thai iced tea with boba. I always know how serious a place is about the spice level when the numbers assigned to the heat go up to a twelve. So I erred on the side of caution and ordered a whopping one. Turned out to be the perfect level for me!
Our server was lovely, attentive and answered all of our questions.
The mango curry was my favorite dish. Just the right amount of spice infused throughout. Beautiful colors, presentation and aroma. A delightful journey for the senses. The chicken dumplings were cooked nicely with the dipping sauce adding more subtle flavors. The Thai tea tasted wonderful. Although the boba was a bit too hard inside and too soft outside.
This was my first visit. I’ll definitely be back to try out more menu items. Thank you Bua Thai for your hospitality and our Yelp Community Manager (Anne F.) for making this happen.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.
