My family has been to this restaurant many times, but one night when we happened to have our young son and our nieces and nephews with us, they refused to seat our party, saying the restaurant was too crowded. Then they seated other parties in front of us. It was the rudest I have ever been treated at a restaurant.

This restaurant is clean, efficient, reasonably priced, and an over-all wonderful dining experience. The establishment is a fixture and must-see of downtown Columbia. It features a bar and 2-level dining space for beautiful dining and delicious food. Prices are competitive and food is always fresh! I personally recommend the Siam Village Rolls (available with pork or vegetarian style) and their delicious, hand-made dipping sauce. Their pad thai is also wonderful and a restaurant favorite!

Bangkok Gardens is a small Thai restaurant located in downtown Columbia, across the street from the Blue Note (music venue). It has about 10-15 tables, many of which are for two people, so a larger group might have trouble being seated. That is the only real downside I personally see. The service is great, attention when desired but not bothersome at other times. The food is wonderful, with about 25-30 dishes to choose from. You can specify what type of meat you want on most dishes, with tofu as an option for vegetarians. My personal favorite is Demon Chicken, you should try it! You can also chose the level of spiciness, from 1-10. I am not a huge fan of overwhelmingly spicy foods, so I get a 3, and it is very mild. The price is very average for a Columbia restaurant, expect to pay about 10 dollars plus tip. Pros: Food, Atmosphere
