Great dining experience. We arrived early and had a couple drinks at the bar. They have a great selection of fine spirits.

My fiancé and I had a date night here and was completely mind blown! The atmosphere is very quiet and calming so it was easy to talk to one another. The food was absolutely delicious, (best food I’ve ever had at a restaurant) we are still talking about it two days later. Caleb was our server and he was incredible and very attentive and personable. We will definitely be back!

Food- Best meal I have had at any restaurant, ever! No exaggeration. I have traveled for years and I have eaten at some of the best places in NY, Chicago, ATL, Vegas, etc… But Friday evening, I had the best Dining experience in my life and needed to make sure that anyone reading reviews on Bodhi Thai got to see just how great this restaurant experience was for myself, my wife and our friends.

The service here is top notch. Our waiter never let our waters go empty or even halfway. After our large party all got our food, he would thoughtfully ask if we wanted it boxed up once it looked like we were finished. The lunch portions are reasonably sized, and the tastes were pretty good! I got the Pad Thai and my sister got the Sticky Noodles. My friends enjoyed the pineapple sticky rice and the red and green curry. I’ve been told that there is a completely different menu for dinner, so I’m excited to come back and experience that!

Excellent lunch with wife. Chose the bar for a quick and quiet lunch. Enjoyed braised rib for an appetizer. Our main course was shrimp fried rice and pad thai chicken. Our food was mild or no seasoning; however, you can get it as hot as you like. Chef Nevit is excellent to watch and his dishes are so delicious. The staff are very nice, conscientious and efficient. Overall an excellent experience. We will be back!

Bodhi is the brain child of Chef Nivit. He is from Thailand with formal training classical French food. He has successfully infused the bold flavors of the South East Asia with the culinary delicacy of French cuisine. We went there for my Birthday and everything we ordered was amazing. I really didn’t have any negative comment about the food. I would have wanted a little bit more light in the dining area as it was very muted. Overall a fantastic experience and we would definitely visit again.

There are no $12.99 noodles here! I don’t venture to Lexington often, so this place was not on my radar. Decided on a whim to go for my birthday dinner. The service was great; attentive, knowledgeable, thoughtful. We ordered a little bit of everything off the menu, including several appetizers, soups, cocktails, and one of each dessert offered. I consider myself a tom ka connoisseur (lol), and this place is doing it right. After all was said and done, my husband and I had spent about $200. The food and experience together is worth it. This might not be a place you’d go to often due to the nature of the small/limited menu (only 4 entrees,) but we will definitely return.
