Bankok House is Oxford's best Thai restaurant, and one of its most ornate. The décor is authentically Thai, and the wait-staff dresses in traditional Thai garb. Most importantly, the food itself is superb. Vegetarian dishes are available. Regulars recommend the Kang Scallop, which is scallop served with vegetables in curry paste. Warning: As many have found out, some of the food can be very hot!

I went to Bangkok House with my friend for the Lunch special this week, and found that although the food was delicious, the service was unacceptably rude, and left a bad taste in the mouth.
We ordered our meals, and my friend ordered tap water. When it came with ice, my friend asked for it without ice, and the server (who it turned out was the owner) actually said "Oh you should have said while ordering" in an extremely rude tone. The water was delivered by one of the wait-staff, but she comes back later to say (to my friend who had ordered her meal without rice because she is diabetic) "Oh, you will have to pay for the whole meal" (again in an unpleasant tone) - totally implying that we were some cheap skates who were trying to cheat her of her income! The waiter, picking his que from the owner obviously, also acted like it was a tremendous imposition when we asked for salt and pepper later.
All in all, we agree with the last review by LT and suggest if you want to enjoy your meal a bitter aftertaste that you go somewhere else.
Fortunately for those who love Thai food as we do, there are other good Thai restaurants in Oxford!
