Check your order before you leave. They are unable to give a credit for the items they forget. If they forget to give you your food they’ll wait over 20 minutes to call back (so you’re already gone). They’ll tell you they have a credit for you (but didn’t take my name? So who knows if I’ll ever get the money for my dumplings. They are the only store who uses a credit card machine that can’t adjust an order because they made a mistake. The good news is that there is a new Asian place in downtown Elkhart called Furi. I have no problem with someone making a mistake— and I totally get that people call and lie about this kind of stuff to get free food— but the food they left is sitting at their restaurant. I’d love to give my business to local places when I am eating away from home, but this isn’t the one I would recommend because they have no attention to detail and poor...

Spent $50 on pad Thai, veggie spring rolls and Thai iced tea. Pad Thai is always my go to baseline for evaluating Thai restaurants. Well here are the results. Large serving easily fed two people, the noodles were way over cooked, they fell apart while eating them, too much sauce and too much rice vinegar in the sauce as well. The rice vinegar ended up being the primary flavor. The mixture of veggies and crushed peanuts was fantastic though. Thai iced tea was spot on. Since we filled up on the pad Thai, I was not able to taste the spring rolls. Overall presentation and size looked appetizing. One more item. They really need to move the smelly dumpsters to the back of the building. That was the first thing we looked at when entering...

Our experience here was awesome. The food was very fresh and tasted different than the typical Asian place. The staff is very nice and they are good about tending to your needs and helpful at making suggestions of what to order. I would love to try everything on their menu. The atmosphere is updated and mod-feeling. Although it's not a sit-down place (it's more pick-up/ take-out oriented) there are a few places to sit down and eat. This is a great place if you want yummy, fresh food but don't want to spend a lot of time at a sit-down place or want to save a little money. The only thing I didn't like was that the tables could have used some wiping off. Other than that, this is still a great experience and we...

So good! Traveling through and took a chance. Paid off! Ordered MI CHA (Phnom Pehn Style) with chicken. Hubby ordered Mango Chicken with Khmer Chili Sauce. Both were delicious. Hot and fresh. Taro egg rolls also so good. Our son lived in Cambodia for a year and a half and I sent him a picture of our meals. He said it looked just like it did over there. He was jealous. 🥹 Would recommend. Would love to go there again next time we come through to try more dishes. Oh and the large size on the entrees were very generous portions. Happy we stopped. P.S. there was no public restroom there which was disappointing. We had to go drive around to fine one elsewhere in town. Almost didn’t come back but wanted to try. Glad we did.

I usually go to Kaos atleast 2 times a week during my lunch break. I usually don’t have a problem. However, ever since they have gotten new employees, I’ve had nothing but issues. I went in there for lunch today and ordered my usual. Either I was given the wrong order, or the cashier misheard me, but I received “combo” fried rice and it has pork in it. I do not eat pork. I immediately went back into the restaurant and the cashiers acted like they did not care. It’s one thing to make a mistake, but it’s another to just not care to make it right. I did receive a refund but overall I’m just disappointed. This used to be my lunch spot. I’m not sure that I’ll return here.

We decided to try this place on the recommendation of a friend, and boy are we glad we did. Kao's might be the best little hidden gem in Elkhart. I happen to be super taste sensitive to cilantro, so I was naturally terrified to see a large portion of their menu is cilantro heavy. Fortunately I can say I ordered two dishes with no cilantro and there was zero cilantro in either. My daughter's favorite part was for sure the Boba. Many delicious options to make your own customized drink. The whole family looks forward to our next visit!
