We are very sad that Bahn Mai Thai closed. The Centerville area is now lacking good Thai food. We have been going to Bahn Mai Thai since it first opened many years ago. There are a lot of good memories there and the best Thai food anywhere. We wish Bob and his wife the best in their new endeavor when... More

Bahn Mai was my favorite place for Thai in all of Dayton. It rivals quality and creativity found in other major metro areas. The ingredients always tested fresh, and the flavor was always great! I will really miss the Bellbrook location as it is now closed so that the owners can focus on their new restaurant going in at The... More

We celebrated our sons birthday here and everything from the food to the service was exceptional. We were able to call and make reservations and they were more than happy to let us bring a cake along to celebrate our sons birthday. Next time we are in the area we will plan on going to Bahn Mai Thai Cafe.

Thai places in Dayton have come ond gone, but thank goodness this one is still around. The atmosphere is great (small and quiet) and the food is incredible. I personnaly love the Masama Curry. But you must try the garlic ragoon sticks!

We lived in Asia for many years, travelling regularly to Thailand to visit friends and relatives there. Our visit to Bahn Mai Thai Cafe was a delightful accident. The thing we were most missing here in Dayton was simple and authentic Thai food that we could eat every week, and here it was within 10 minutes of our house! Authentic... More

Tried Bahn Mai for the first time tonight and loved it! The food was fresh, and the service food. It was appropriately spiced, not too hot or bland at a 3/5. Great spring rolls, curry and basil fried rice. Will definitely go back soon!!

My Husband and I have become somewhat of regulars here at Bahn Mai. Their food is consistently delicious. The waitstaff is always knowledgeable regarding food choices. My usual order is (of course) the Pad Thai, Thai Basil Stir Fry, the Twice Cooked Fish (yum) or some other stir fry. Their Pad Thai is far from greasy, which, if you have... More

Bahn Mai in Centerville is truly a little gem. I have been frequenting this little place many times over the years. I love independent little places, especially when the food is this good. The place is small, but lovely, and the service is very attentive. If you're not a fan of curry, you really should give Bahn Mai' curry's a... More

Every so often, my wife will specify Thai food. We are fortunate to have several Thai restaurants in the Centerville area. Bahn Mai Thai Cafe is about a ten minute drive, and has a pleasant atmosphere, wait staff, and chef. We often have questions, and receive accurate answers. We both prefer a 7 on a 7 scale. Always a delightful,... More

Best Thai I've had in quite a while. Was in town for business for four days and unfamiliar with the city. Just happened upon this place in a strip mall on the south side of town. The Pad Kapow, their signature dish, was just what I was looking for.
