Several Thai restaurants in the Columbia Pike area of Arlington, but I only had time for one. Although this one has great reviews, I picked it because it has Massamun curry (beef) on the menu, and I'm hooked on this dish. It did not disappoint. It's says slow cooked, and it tastes that way! Think pot roast beef and potatoes,... More

I am not an expert in Thai food; however, I have eaten in many Thai restaurants in the DC Metropolitan Area, and in my modest opinion I must say that: "This is the best one so far!". The first time I took my kids to Bangkok 54 some time ago; my older at that time (16) grimaced at me; my... More

Really good Thai food here. There are plenty of great restaurants in this city and plenty of Thai but this is one of the bestest. All the traditional dishes, all prepared perfectly.

Wife and I go frequently for tasty Thai food at reasonable prices. Extra parking in the back. Try the butternut squash, shrimp, and panang curry dish or the seafood Drunken Noodles and you will be happy.

Went to Bangkok 54 for a dinner full of flavor and spice. The dishes were full of fresh ingredients and vegetables served with a beautiful presentation. The atmosphere was nice, elegant, yet also casual and comfortable. The staff were great. The prices were reasonable. This place is a winner.

Most authentic Thai food in the DC Metro area! Many dishes you cant find at typical Thai restaurants makes this a great restaurant to try when you're craving something different. Nicely decorated restaurant makes this a great retreat from other offerings in the area as well. What I love most about eating at Bangkok 54 is visiting the market (separate... More

Took my family here and have a great dinner. Everything on the menu was good. Pud Thai with chicken and chicken fried rice was to die for.

The food is very good and the prices reasonable. Comfortable and elegant. Jeans are o.k. but this is a first class operation.

This is my go-to place for take-out. Bangkok 54 is the best Thai food in the Arlington area. The Panang Chicken is my dish of choice. The menu has a good variety and is priced reasonably. You can eat in the dining room or get take out.

I love their chicken curry with butternut squash. We went with a party of 13 and everyone was satisfied with their choices. You can see that the management of this place is strong and keeps a close eye on the quality of the food. We'll be back.
