Kindee Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Minneapolis

I absolutely love Thai food, especially after befriending a thai chef. Given this, my standards on what thai food should look and taste like are better than before I befriended him. I was in Minnesota and craving thai so I ended up at Kindee. First, the decor was beautiful. I love feeling comfortable and entertained with all the things around me. I recieved this here. The one dish I always order at a thai restaurant is the papaya salad. I love it spicy, especially since the first time I tried it was from my thai friend. Generally I go to a thai restaurant and even when I say hot it comes out a little over mild. Kindee stays traditional and brings what you order. My eyes were watering but it tasted sooo good I couldn't stop eating it. I had the pad thai as an entree and my friend had the drunken noodle; both were so delicious. For desert, we tried the fried banana. Honestly, I've had a frozen banana but never a fried banana. I recommend everyone to try one. Our server was so nice AND funny. I love going to a restaurant where the server is easy going any funny because it makes the experience better. I want to thank Kindee for not only making my dining experience but my trip a little more fun. I will definately return to Kindee when I visit Minnesota...

We tried Kindee due to its proximity to the Guthrie and after tiring of the Guthrie restaurant and lounge. It was a good decision.

First impression of the ambience and decor was "Asian hip on a budget." Somewhat sparse but not unpleasantly so and fortunately no Asian Kitsch.

They have an interesting selection of wine by the glass and several Asian beers.

Menu has a decent range but is somewhat understated in terms of descriptions of items. You certainly knew the ingredients but a description of the origins and taste profiles etc would be great for those of us who eat Thai only on occasion.

My wife had chicken with basil and I had the ginger stir fry with chicken. We were pleased with each dish. Good flavor and temperature. My sample of my wife's order was too spicy for my Midwestern palate but the heat was fine by my wife who tolerates spiciness better than I. The ginger sour fry had a sauce that was very good and I found myself wishing that there was more to accompany the remaining rice.

We didn't try the desserts as the entrees were sufficient and who wants to eat too much before a play in the darkened theatre?

So I'm pleased with our first visit and looking forward to another in a month or so. But I'll have to...

This is the first time I have reviewed any restaurant before. I thought it would be great today to bring 80 year friend to the park to eat. Mill city area would be perfect. She loves Thai food. We brought our chairs and sat at park. Called place at noon to order: pineapple fried rice with chicken and no cranberries and medium spice. 2. Pad thai pork medium spice.

She said it would be ready in 15 min. I was at the door at 12:15. Walked the block back to the park.

Pineapples fried Rice has some cranberries im it. It was extremely bland. No spice at all. I saw no red pepper flakes or any visual sign that any heat was added. It looked like white rice with boiled chicken and pinnapple.

Pad thai noodles were not hot. Seemed cold. No spice at all. Friend thought the meat was chicken. I took a bite and spit it all.

I spent 30 dollars. I threw the whole meal away. No refund.

My friend said call. They said they put a little spice in because people complained it was to spicy. I said their is no spice at all. It tastes like ketchup. I felt like I'm arguing that the food was terrible. Hung up. No reason to argue.

This is the worse thai food i have eaten. No flavor. Bland. No...
