Korat Cocina Oriental — Restaurant in Cancún

I had the Korat Noodles with breaded chicken and I was fully satisfied. The only reason that I'm giving it a 4 star rating is because both my wife and our friend ordered the pad thai- one with chicken, one with shrimp. Our friend who got chicken said that her noodles were undercooked and though she did not feel like sending it back or complaining, she couldn't finish the meal because her jaw fatigued from having to chew so much.

My wife enjoyed her shrimp pad Thai with the comment that the sauce was a little too sweet but once she ordered a spicy sauce which was a serrano Chile based sauce that they brought out upon request, the acidity and spice of said sauce helped balance out the sweetness to a satisfactory level.

To drink I had the guanabana water (soursop) which was delicious and I order it anywhere i see it on a menu as it is not very common unless you're in tropical areas.

The place is tiny and the seats are low which for me being 6.5 made me feel like more of a giant but I did enjoy that they had...

I really wanted to love this place. We took food for takeout so I will edit my review when I try to dine in next time I visit.

The staff were so friendly and do their best to accommodate foreigners. Beautiful, easy to navigate menu. The cooks were on display through a transparent window. They were making the food right in front of our eyes. I loved that part the most.

My bank of america card had a hard time with their machine so it is best to pay with cash if you are with BOA.

I liked their noodles. Taking home the bao may have been a mistake. The beef in the noodles was fairly dry. May have continued to cook while packed and we were traveling home.

4 stars for now but I am open to giving this place another shot whenever I...

Things started off badly when I was closing the door upon entry and cut myself on a jagged part of the sign hanging off the door. You can’t have a jagged piece of metal waiting to greet your customers on the door. I’m still bleeding as I type this.

When I got my food, both orders were wrong. I was brought steak ramen and steak dumplings instead of chicken ramen and pork dumplings. The waitress got me a new bowl of ramen, but insisted she gave me pork dumplings even though it was clear to me I received steak.

The waitress did provide me with a bandage and the ramen was decent when they brought the right kind, but man I had a bad time here. The food was also extremely overpriced. 150 mxn for 5 dumplings...
