Little Bangkok (Grand Rapids) Menu

Little Bangkok at 850 Forest Hill Ave SE #A, Grand Rapids, serves classic Thai cuisine with a broad selection of noodles, curries, fried rice, soups, stir-fries, seafood, salads, and shareable appetizers. The drinks program includes beer, wine, sake, soju, and non-alcoholic refreshments. Popular choices include Pad Thai, Green Curry, House Special Kow Pad, Crab Wontons, and Bangkok Chicken, while the dedicated Special Dish section offers Curry Noodle, Thai Steak, House Special, and Bangkok Seafood Combo.

Appetizers currently start around $4, while specialty mains range from about $16-$24. Generous portions and fresh vegetables, aromatic basil, coconut curry, peanuts, lime, tender meats, and seafood provide good value and a lively balance of sweet, spicy, tangy, creamy, and savoury flavours.

Vegetarian diners can choose Spring Rolls, Fried Tofu, Thai Salad, Papaya Salad, vegetable curries, and tofu-based entrées. No dedicated gluten-free menu is clearly published, so allergies should be confirmed directly. Vegetable-rich stir-fries and salads provide lighter options. A separate children’s menu is not advertised, though mild noodles, fried rice, and sweet-and-sour dishes can suit younger diners. Little Bangkok is best for lunch, dinner, takeaway, dates, family meals, and small group gatherings rather than breakfast.

Menu Highlights

Pad Thai
Thin rice noodles are stir-fried with egg, bean sprouts, green onion, crushed peanuts, lime, and traditional Thai sauce. Sweet, tangy, nutty flavours and springy noodles make it one of the restaurant’s most popular classics.

Gang Kew Wan – Green Curry
Bell peppers, peas, carrots, eggplant, mushrooms, and basil come together in fragrant coconut green curry. Creamy richness and aromatic chilli heat make this a frequently recommended favourite.

House Special Kow Pad – $16
Fried rice combines chicken, shrimp, egg, cashews, broccoli, pea pods, vegetables, sweet chilli, and brown sauce. Its generous mix of proteins and textures makes it one of the most complete rice dishes.

Curry Noodle – $16
Wide rice noodles are paired with chicken, shrimp, egg, vegetables, coconut yellow curry, lime, and crushed peanuts. Creamy curry and chewy noodles create a comforting dish with fresh citrus brightness.

Bangkok Chicken – $18
Breaded chicken is served with onions, peppers, mushrooms, and a choice of brown sauce or coconut red curry. Crisp chicken and rich sauce give this house specialty plenty of texture and flavour.

Bangkok Seafood Combo – $24
Shrimp, scallops, imitation crab, and mixed vegetables are finished in a spicy brown sauce with white rice. The combination stands out for its seafood variety and bold savoury finish.

Crab Wontons – $7
Six crisp wontons are filled with creamy crab-and-cheese mixture and served with plum sauce. Their crunchy shell, smooth centre, and sweet dipping sauce make them an easy sharing favourite.
