Probably 3.5 stars but we'll round up :)I stopped by on a weekday in the early evening. It wasn't busy -- the staff was attentive and the service was prompt. It's a casual spot, very accessible if you're hopping off the metro, and there's plenty of seating indoors. I believe I ordered the Ka Pow Perfect and Drunken Noodle with chicken and they were running a promotion with free spring rolls. The portions were delightfully massive for the price point (I paid $43 including 20% tip). I had some pieces of fried chicken that turned me off the entree, so I'd go for a different protein if I were to try the dish again. It wasn't aggressively spicy so you really don't have to be cautious when choosing the spice level. For the drunken noodles, the sheer (over)size of the noodles made it a bit less enjoyable, but the flavor was great. I think this is a great spot for a convenient and no frills, solid meal.

We only ordered from their Mongolian menu, and they had three dishes available that day. I think their Mongolian food is authentic, and their servers were also Mongolian. If you want to try real Mongolian food in the NOVA/DC area, come here!We ordered their fried dumplings and steamed. Both have meat and onions, but it's mainly meat. I prefer the deep fried one (which is flat and kinda shaped like an empanada). It was delicious! The steamed one tastes similar to traditional Chinese dumplings, but came with sweet cabbage salad in the middle.I think the soup was my favorite. It came with man tou or steamed plain buns. The meat was very tender and the soup was flavorful, especially for someone who doesn't usually like soup. There was a good proportion of veggies vs. meat, unlike the dumplings.For drinks, we ordered milk tea which came with quinoa at the bottom. This is NOT like your traditional Taiwanese milk tea. This tastes mainly like warm milk but also contains black tea. The quinoa at the bottom was a nice treat. For some reason, this drink took the longest to come out. If you want to try something new, I'd recommend getting this. Apparently Mongolians usually put dried meat in this drink, but this place doesn't offer that option.

Great food and service! I like that it's a cute little restaurant with reliably great Thai food. My papaya salad and pad Thai were both very flavorful. I have ordered takeout from Buuz Thai and didn't think it was quite as flavorful so I'd recommend dinning in.

I discovered this place after parking in front of it to go to Tupelo Honey for brunch. Because it was super crowded, plan B for Buzz Thai Ratery became our choice for lunch, Small, intimate, clean and modern decor with earth tone colors of brown and green caught our attention as soon as we came in. We got a window seat with a table for four. We were greeted right away and given a colorful menu to review.My daughter and I love Thai tea and we enjoyed ours. My husband was happy to see Thai iced coffee as a choice and said it was so good. E started with some soup and appetizers and shared their fried rice with the addition of chicken. The crab Rangoon was my fave but everything was flavorful.

Buuz is our go local Thai place. My husband and I frequently come here or order take out. This is a family business and they are so kind! We are happy to support by eating their delicious food. Dishes are fresh, cooked well, and have great portions.

A good neighborhood Thai restaurant for both takeout and in-store dining, with several classic options across the menu.--After a long week, my significant other and I came here for a nice, simple dinner for two. We have ordered DoorDash from here a few times prior, and always had solid experiences, but never dined in before.Most of the business they receive does appear to be takeout and delivery, and there were a lot of people coming in and out. There were still a few parties seated in the small eating area, both families and couples, and the tables and interior was certainly more than nice enough. Our service was friendly and prompt, and easy to get ahold of even though she was also running takeout orders.While the menu was expansive, we kept it simple and ordered off the Thai menu. We had Chicken Spring Rolls for the table, and I ordered for myself Chicken Pad Thai and Spring Rolls (my significant other ordered Curry). The food came out fast. The Spring Rolls were first - they were very simple, yet good. The Pad Thai was a sizable portion, and was everything I needed and dreamed of after a long week. I would have ideally liked it to be a bit spicier and pack a bit more of a punch flavor wise, but I also knew what to expect ordering one of the more 'common' dishes on the menu.Overall a very good experience, and a restaurant I am happy to continue to support both in person and for takeout. In the future, I would be very curious to try their Mongolian Menu, or the additional entrees off the Thai menu.

Happy to discover this restaurant by Wilson near Rhodeside and Oasis Nail Salon. Just found out from the owner they've been in business for 7 years! It was recently recommended by someone who was Mongolian so I had to try it. We ordered the Bantan - Bone broth ( known for centuries to have many health benefits and healing properties) Porridge and Buuz dumplings. The porridge was super flavorful (no salty taste) and had lots of fresh thinly sliced beef. Perfect for a cold day or to nurse a cold. The famous beef dumplings -Buuz were fresh and very tasty. The order takes 20 minutes as it's made fresh. I asked for chili and got a wonderful chilli paste to go with it. The lightly pickled vegetables were perfect pairing with the dumplings. Everything was cooked fresh like home style. Will definitely come back again to try the Thai dishes which looked amazing.

Absolutely love this place. All the food is absolutely spectacular, flavorful, and overall amazing. The service is really really good too. Everyone is extremely friendly, kind, and sweet. The place is very bright, happy, artistic, and has a great historic but home-like atmosphere. Definitely recommend and definitely tip the staff &/or owner well; They really deserve it!

We ordered food via Grubhub and they have their own delivery service. They didn't knock when they got here but luckily I realized the food was there so it didn't get cold at the door. We ordered the spring rolls, crab rangoon, pad thai, drunken noodles, and mango sticky rice. I think the spring rolls were some of the best we have had at a restaurant. The crab rangoons were decent, it was a little off putting how cold the inside felt. Pad thai was great but could use a tiny bit more spice/flavor (though I loved the chicken with it). Otherwise drunken noodles were a hit.The mango sticky rice was good but half the mango they gave us was a bit brown so I was worried it was spoiled. However, this definitely is a solid Thai spot local to me so I'd definitely come back and try it again.
