Buddha's Belly next to the Hamilton Hotel is a bit pricey, but good. It's also consistent. The other places I've frequented were a bit hit and miss. |

Silom next to Helios, across from the fire station is the best Thai I've had in Itaewon, very reasonable and nice cozy patio too. |

Pattaya is pretty good and certified by the Thai Embassy in Seoul. |

I give all the Thai restaurants a miss. Too expensive and dinky little servings. Go to the Halal Pakistani restaurants. |

I saw a sign that Thai Orchid re-opened across the street and up a bit from where it was before - anyone been there yet? |

Thai Garden, next to the Itaewon hotel and where Thai Orchid used to be. The staff is the same as before, but I think the food is better. Portion sizes are large (difficult for me to finish and that's saying a lot) and most of the chicken dishes start at 10,000 won. Obviously not the prices you would pay in Bangkok, but for Seoul, not too bad. |

Often very true- though Pattaya's chicken pad thai is quite sizable. |
