Practical tips for ordering, BYO, and dining at Phaboonchai Thai Restaurant

    Diners can bring their own drinks with no corkage fee or cover charge, making it easy to pair with drinks from the bottle shop next door.

  • Request Extra Heat if Desired

    Mild and medium preparations lean very mild, so specify hot or extra chilli if you prefer authentic heat; staff will adjust to order.
