WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
An undisputed institution of Shinjuku Thai cuisine, Banthai has operated in Kabukicho since 1985 and holds official certification from the Thai government — a mark of authenticity it has upheld through nearly four decades of unchanged, genuine Thai cooking.
1985年から歌舞伎町で営業を続ける新宿タイ料理の絶対的な老舗で、タイ政府公認レストランの認定を受け、40年近くにわたって変わらぬ本格タイ料理を提供し続けている。
With 3,494 Tabelog reviews at a score of 3.59, reinforced by 737 real-name recommendations on Retty, its following extends well beyond tourists to the loyal regulars who have made it a fixture of everyday Shinjuku life.
食べログ3.59・3,494件の評価にRettyの737件の実名推薦が加わり、一時的な観光客だけでなく長年の地元常連に深く支えられてきたことを如実に示している。
The fact that Thai government-certified quality can be experienced at lunch for 950 to 1,200 yen, or at dinner for 3,000 to 3,999 yen, alongside its selection for the Tabelog Asian Cuisine Hyakumei-ten, leaves little doubt about where its standards lie.
ランチ950〜1,200円、夜3,000〜3,999円という価格帯でタイ政府公認水準の本物の味を楽しめることは、食べログアジア料理百名店選出とともに、その品質を裏付ける何よりの証しだ。
