DAOW'S KITCHEN — Restaurant in Folkestone and Hythe District

Updated 30th July 22.

After disappointment on three separate weeks and days, Wednesday, Friday and today Saturday I am having to update my review.

Daows kitchen have disappointingly let us down. The stay they're open but they are not. They are uncontactable. No information. It's just random. They just. Decide to close and don't tell anyone . I know for a fact they have recently opened a new outlet at the Folkestone harbour arm.

My friend and I enjoyed a meal at Daows whilst in holiday in Folkestone. We turned up without a reservation on a wed night and were lucky to get a table. It's quite small but a nice friendly atmosphere. My friend had the prawn pad Thai and I had chicken massaman curry. The pad Thai was decorated with carved vegetables and my friend enjoyed it. She found it too big a portion for her and took the remainder home. My curry was served in a bowl with the rice on the plate. The rice was a bit dry and I'd have preferred to have the curry on the same plate. It was tasty but not the best massaman I've had. Still it was tasty. It's a nice homely feeling...
