Koon Thai Kitchen

We tried out this restaurant late on a Sunday night. They were about to close, but were kind enough to let us order and eat in. We got some fried rice and a mixed seafood dish. They have very generous portions and the food was very tasty. We enjoyed our impromptu dinner.

Service was amazing, restaurant was nice and updated and very clean but the food was lacking. I order the pad see ew and there was barely any sauce on the noodles. Ice never had noodles that were plain white before and no flavor. They're supposed to be a light brown color due to the soy sauce combination on it but these were not and we're bland and dry. Same story with my friends Pad Thai. The sticky rice with mango was good and so was the chicken and shrimp lumpia.

Let's talk Thai. We all have our favorites - pad thai, pad see ew, pineapple fried rice, curry, the list goes on. No matter what your favorite is, I can almost guarantee that you will not only find it here, but also absolutely love it. Koon Thai Kitchen is my personal go-to for my Thai food cravings when I'm in the San Diego area. My personal favorites are their moo duo platter (which is an assortment of pork in a sweet savory sauce) and their pad see ew - both classic Thai dishes, but made extremely well here. The portions are quite sizable that I find myself always with leftovers (perfect for a second meal). Of note, my spice tolerance is practically non-existent. These dishes are in my wheelhouse, and I find them both enjoyable and flavorful. Now, if you are a spice lover, then fear not. They definitely don't skimp on the spice here, so your tongue will be in good hands. All in all, if you love Thai food, then you should definitely check out Koon Thai Kitchen!
