My partner and I were doing a date day in Oklahoma City. We decided to try this Thai restaurant solely based on where it was located on the map and the type of food. The Thai restaurant in my city has been closed down so I have not been able to have Thai food for a good while.
This is definitely a hole in the wall restaurant. It's not terribly big and the building looks like it's old and has been renovated several different times. It's definitely very homey if you can tell that it's a small, local business.
We ended up going at non-Buffet time so I have no idea what that's like there. We were given lunch menus and even when I asked if that was all they had I wasn't offered a dinner menu, even though I saw other people in the restaurant with the menu that was more expansive than what I was offered.
There were only two options for Curry on there and I got the one that was not green. I would have liked a large a portion, the dinner size, as the lunch portion seemed a bit small and I was still hungry afterwards. The curry wasn't as flavorful as I've tried other restaurants but it wasn't bad.
Their entrees come with the option of soup or spring rolls. I chose spring rolls and they were very on par with the fried spring roll that I've had at any other place.
I think the food was just okay. I've had more flavorful Thai food other places so this is not a place that I would personally recommend. Other reviews seem to rave about the buffet so maybe we missed out on what they do best.
I also found it very odd that they charged us $2 to omit onions from a dish when it was an allergy. I've never been to a restaurant that is charged for taking away a food item. That...
Read moreAlthough a hole in the wall sort of restaurant I do have to say it's one of those authentic places that carries good food and a place that makes you want to return.
I've been living in OKC for ten years and I've been going to the 'Thai Kitchen' for about 8. I stumbled across it. It's a little hard to find as they do they don't have a huge sign and it's tucked away in the corner.
Upon entering you'll start to pick up on the vibe the place is out of date by MANY years and it's clearly old, but I often enjoy that vibe because it gives you the "hole in the wall" sort of reputation. The place could do a remodel but if it stays the way it is, I won't complain.
The food is amazing, the buffet is really the way to go and they only have it at lunch. But still it's amazing, you can pick from rice, noodles, soup, curry, and so on! 90% of the dishes are good to try and I've yet to be disappointed by the food selection.
The wait service had always been pretty good and I love connecting with the staff. There's a polish/Ukrainian fellow that works there and he's more then helpful and always kind. I always tip well that the restaurant. The dinner menu isn't bad either, good place to kick back and relax after a long day at work.
5/5 Stars - Hold in the wall -...
Read moreI've been coming here for years. It's also a family run business, so I love supporting small businesses. Firstly - I took a moment to read through the 1-Star comments and I would have to say one thing they never shy on is service. If something is wrong or you're unhappy - speak with them, they are more than willing to remedy the issue. Out of all my years I've no doubt run into issues - at even my favorite places - but rather than complain about it see if they can fix the problem you're having.
The food is delicious - they also have a secret family recipe for the 'Red Spicy Chicken' which is to die for. I would 100% recommend the Buffet; and if the food looks tired or old, they will change it out or bring you a fresh batch, you just have to ask.
I've been a loyal customer for over a decade, and they want your business and will do what they can to make your experience worth every cent. Give them a try if you haven't tried it before and give the buffet a go so you can try all they have. Red Chicken, Pad Tai, and Curry's are my favorite. 5/5, Will be back again.
NOTE: Buffet only runs during the lunch rush, so don't expect to show up and...
