Nice place – Very nice food. Average atmosphere. Wish the restaurant was manned entirely by Thais. Recommended.

From the classic to the exotic, this authentic Thai eatery serves it up right. – In Short Situated in South Austin for a long time, this venerable Thai restaurant conveninetly brought their authentic cuisine to a more central location. The small and simple restaurant has an extensive menu, ranging from exotic fare like Gang Long Chi Pa, a hot fish ball red curry, to the more familiar Pad Thai and fried rice. There are plenty of meat and fish dishes for those who want them, but vegetarians will also find a diverse selection o... read more

A hidden gem – Hands down, the most authentic Thai cuisine in town. Thai Kitchen has an endless menu of unique dishes to choose from. You need to visit on several occasions to fully appreciate the restaurant. Prices can be somewhat elevated on certain dishes, but don't let that hold you back. It's worth the price. If you're looking for a taste of Southeast Asia untouched by American influence, check out Thai Kitchen.

Avoid Thai Kitchen – Orange grease dominated my dish. It was so prevalent that the grease was oozing off the edges of the plate onto the table. The small portioned tasteless food was permeated by the grease and lacked not only traditional Thai heat but traditional Thai flavor, or, for that matter, any flavor. We have eaten in Thai restaurants around the country. There are great places in NY and San Fran, but also in Sedona (Tara Thai) and Albuquerque (Thai Ginger). All it takes is a good chef, and clearly Thai Kitchen does n... read more

Authentic, but... – If you want authentic Thai food in Austin, this is pretty much your only choice. I wouldn't be exaggerating to say my dad has been to well over a thousand Thai restaurants in his time, and this is where he goes to when he's in Austin. Me, on the other hand, I'm a 2nd generation, and I don't go here. An overabundance of lemongrass, coconut, and general sweetness in cooking turns me off, though these are some of the hallmarks of Thai cooking. The food's alright in my opinion, but doesn't get my palate to wa... read more

expensive cheap food – Their food tastes cheap and the price does not reflect the quality. A restaurant near campus will make many broke students to dine here, and that's their trick. Their menu consists of many dishes that tastes the same: spicy or coconutty. Their dumplings should be dumped out of the menu.

Great Thai Food – Thai Kitchen has really great food. The service is quick and the price is right. I love their Chicken Fried Rice- it is done PERFECTLY. That is the main reason that I go there- the fried rice.

Good Thai – This is the best Thai food that I've found in Austin. The selection is excellent and the food is sure to please. Lunch specials are very affordable and the lemongrass soup is awesome. Check out their "Chef's Special" section on the dinner menu. With entrees named "Never again" and "Atomic Shrimp" there's bound to be something for that hot food lover in the group.
