About
Generous shrimp Pad Thai and Thai curries in a silver-toned room with red pendant lights, near Bucheon City Hall Station.
Red pendant lights and a row of bar seats by the window give Heitai a sharper, more city-café feel than the Thai décor some diners expect. The silver-toned room has large windows and feels open; at lunch, office workers and hospital staff fill the tables, while couples and solo diners use it at other times. It is about a five-minute walk from Bucheon City Hall Station, Exit 1. Pad Thai is the dish reviewers return to: a generous tangle of noodles with bean sprouts, shrimp and meat, sweet-savoury sauce, and enough on the plate to make sharing plausible. Choose shrimp Pad Thai (₩11,900), beef brisket Pad Thai (₩11,900) or chicken Pad Thai (₩10,900). The noodles can clump or turn oily, though, and recent diners report saltier or flatter flavours than they remember. Beef rice noodle soup (₩11,000) is another popular main; reviews disagree on whether its broth tastes satisfyingly hot and rich or a little thin. Green curry (₩14,000) with chicken brings a coconut-based curry flavour, rather than the familiar yellow-curry profile. There are no reservations mentioned in the visitor notes, and tables fill quickly at lunch and dinner, so come before the rush if you have a schedule. Order on the paper sheet at the table and hand it to staff; the menu is reported to be in Korean only, with no kiosk. The restaurant opens daily from 11:00 to 22:00, closing from 15:00 to 17:00. Building-basement parking is available; ask about the parking ticket, which is based on time used. Heitai suits a casual meal with friends or a date, especially if you want a substantial Pad Thai. Keep expectations flexible: reviews mention a change in ownership and uneven seasoning, and some diners say the food does not taste especially authentic.
