bangkok thai is dupont circle's untapped casual dining spots. you can enter during peak dining hours and not expect a hassle to find a table. if you're looking for a quaint dating spot, this is the place for you. however, if its you're first time eating thai don't be shy to ask questions. in my opinion, bangkok dining is a stone throw away to fine dining. its presentation and tastes of options is nothing short of boldly remarkable. their only handicap is that not every bite infuses that burst of thai flavor. in the off chance you bite one our two, you fall vulnerable to bland seafood or noodles. take the note as a palate cleanser or their restaurant's minor wound. in all a decent eat, i rate 3.5/5 spoons, at best, and i encourage users to ask questions to unfamiliar items.
