Khun Chai Thai Restaurant -Jumeira3- مطعم كون شاي تاي-جميرا ٣ — Restaurant in Dubai

From the moment I stepped into Kun Chai Thai Restaurant in Jumeirah, I knew I was in for something special. The restaurant was buzzing with happy diners, yet the staff welcomed me warmly and found me a table right away. What truly stood out was their genuine hospitality — every staff member wore a bright smile and was dressed in beautifully elegant, traditional Thai attire, adding an authentic cultural charm to the whole experience.

Thanya, who took my order, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. She not only took my requests but also explained the dishes in detail, helping me understand the flavors and ingredients — something you rarely find in most restaurants. I started with the Tom Yum soup, a classic, but here it was elevated to another level. I opted for both chicken and vegetables, and to my delight, the soup was rich with a vibrant mix of fresh vegetables, including cauliflower, which is uncommon yet complemented the dish perfectly. The balance of flavors — spicy, sour, and fragrant — was spot on and truly satisfying.

Next, I tried the chicken spring rolls, which were a revelation. Not only were they crisp and perfectly cooked, but they were also thoughtfully presented on a simple banana leaf, adding a beautiful and rustic touch to the dish. It’s these small details that show how much care Kun Chai puts into its dining experience.

For the main course, I ordered the spicy Panang curry paired with chicken fried rice. The curry was rich, creamy, and bursting with authentic Thai spices, reminding me of my dining experiences at top-tier restaurants. In fact, the last time I enjoyed Thai food of this calibre was at Silk & Spice, a Michelin-recommended restaurant at Sofitel Abu Dhabi — and Kun Chai’s dishes genuinely rival that quality.

A special mention goes to Sara, the staff manager, who ensured everything ran smoothly. She was attentive, offered great recommendations, and checked in with a genuine interest in making sure my meal was enjoyable.

Overall, Kun Chai Thai Restaurant is a rare gem in Jumeirah. With exceptional food, warm hospitality, and a delightful atmosphere, it delivers an authentic Thai dining experience that both casual diners and food connoisseurs will appreciate. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for outstanding Thai cuisine. This restaurant truly deserves high praise, and I’ll definitely be...

Do not waste your time or money. This place is not authentic, and the staff do not take the time to listen to your requests. We requested a papaya salad with medium spice, we received a very bland salad with no chillies at all and was not authentic just lime juice and what seemed like the texture of the papaya that has been sitting in the fridge for days, not fresh. I also requested a hot drink while we waited for our food as the AC was on full and was so cold, which the waitress very rudely pointed at the fridge and said cold coconut water or ice Thai tea only or cold soft drinks; I requested any hot tea even hot water as it was so cold and I didn’t have a cover up for my shoulders, and still was refused, come on I couldn’t even get a cup of hot water or hot tea, yet they had ice tea which was “home made”.The Panang curry was even more disappointing, when ordering it seemed like such hard work for the waitress to take our order, that we forgot to request what level of spice we would like, but at the same time she didn’t check with us either, when the curry did arrive it was bland and absolutely no chilli or spice at all. When we raised concerns with the waitress at first she was adamant that we did not request any level of spice, which we also agreed but we said do you still not check with the customer when taking the order? As we still did not request no spice at all so you assumed no spice? Which she was then in agreement and apologised. By this point the restaurant was closing and it was late and we drove a long way to try this place as it was highly recommended. In the end we decided to cancel our dessert and requested the bill. The waitress did however remove the papaya salad and panang curry from the bill, but our evening and dinner which we were really looking forward to was spoilt. We should have stuck to our regular place, which I highly recommended “Asian Street by Thai” in JLT, a small family run restaurant but the most authentic food and best service, the staff are so welcoming and the food...
