Armando Isidro was our server, and his service was beyond outstanding! He was attentive, conversational, friendly, and more than willing to help us through our weak spanish. He also was very welcoming and kind about us being on our honeymoon, which honestly meant the world. Aside from the food being wonderful, his service was the most special part of our night. He is more than capable and an extremely effective server, and he alone is enough for us to come again. As people who also love thai food, the food was amazing also, as well as the original cocktails, and we can’t recommend the Mango Sticky Rice enough!!

Delicious Thai Food in CDMX. The flavors are very authentic. There are plenty of seafood and vegetarian options. You get your choice of proteins with most meals. The cocktails were extremely interesting flavor combinations as well.

Michelin guide restaurant with creative spins on Thai food. Love that they were able to accommodate and gave us recommendations on dishes that could be made vegetarian. We tried the green curry and it was delicious the only part i wasn’t a fan of was the huge cauliflower pieces. the drinks were the highlight of the meal. the interior of the restaurant was also beautify with all the greenery

Food was quite authentic and tasty. They made incredible som tam salad with corn as they ran out of green papaya. Couldn’t believe it. Have had better green curry (gaeng keo wan) in Thailand and also other places in the US. Great atmosphere. Our waiter was so knowledgeable and had excellent communication skills. Highly recommend it

By far, one of the best Thai food experiences in Mexico City. This is definitely an amazing restaurant, truly Thai food. Flavors are amazing. If you are looking for a really good culinary experience, this is it. Menu has a decent amount of options. Portions are quite good, and the price is OK accordingly. Staff is very friendly and professional. Reservations are recommended in advance, but if not, they will make an effort to accommodate you. I must say, this is a Michelin star restaurant, and it is well deserved. I had a great experience, and it is definitely on my list of preferred places to eat.

Chef’s kiss! Another great Bib Gourmand restaurant in Mexico City! The ambiance is simply beautiful, the decor of the restaurant feels welcoming and relaxing. The staff are attentive and friendly, They are knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer recommendations based on your preferences. You truly feel well taken care of throughout your dining experience. Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the food. Each dish at Galanga Thai House is bursting with fresh, authentic Thai flavors. You can taste the quality of the ingredients, and the skillful preparation is evident in every bite. I felt like I was taken back to Thailand eating all my favourite dishes.

Galanga is one of the best Thai restaurants in Mexico City. Its cuisine is refined and traditional. All dishes are carefully presented and have an interesting twist. We tried the dumplings, pad thai, fried rice and curry. All of them were delicious.

Exceptional Thai Dining – A Must-Visit Michelin Spot This Michelin-starred restaurant truly lives up to the hype. From the moment we arrived, the hostess made us feel warmly welcomed. The food was outstanding—we ordered more than we could finish simply because everything was so tempting. Every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The decor is stunning and adds to the overall experience. If you’re a fan of Thai cuisine, this place is an absolute must-visit.
