khao san thai kitchen

awesome thai restaurant in calgary!. i took many friends there and they all loved the restaurant after i took them. my best pad thai place in the city.
they have great service, food and atmosphere in the trendy 17th avenue. i can't wait to go back after the renovation.

this is the best thai food in the city that i have found so far. cute space, good service, the food is crazy flavourful. all the sauces have many levels of flavour. my only complaint is perhaps it's a bit expensive. not huge portions. but definitely go give it a try.

once again an excellent meal, never fails to please....

this place is almost as good as chili club thai house. i like that it's the only thai place open all day on sunday. the braised ribs are excellent.

good thai food. have been here a couple of times. really good thai food. the beef knuckle is amazing.
the staff are very attentive, and thai! after living in bangkok, i can speak a little thai, so i check to make sure the staff is thai (at lots of thai places they aren't!)
the food is on the pricier side, but it is high quality and you will really enjoy it. perhaps i just remember how cheap it was to eat in bangkok...

the soup was unbelievable. my tastebuds were alive, awoken by the spicy, tart, salty and sour notes of the soup. i could taste the lime, lemongrass and the deep heat of the chilli. the soup was silky smooth. the tofu was still crispy, tasting like it was briefly deep-fried before being added to the soup.

best thai i've had in a long time. we walked in on a saturday night without a reservation. just 2 of us, so we thought we'd chance it. the staff were totally accommodating and gave us a table and asked us if it was okay if we finished within an hour and a half. we ordered the thai beef jerky, papaya salad, braised short ribs, pad thai and coconut rice. everything came out quickly and hot. service was attentive and friendly.
food was delicious.
the papaya salad was actually the spiciest dish we ordered. the beef jerky was great. it was pretty simple in flavour, but the dipping sauce kicked it up. the braised short ribs were phenomenal. a friend recommended the restaurant based on this dish and it lived up to the hype. pad thai was spot on. overall a fantastic restaurant. priciest items were our cocktails ($10 each) and the papaya salad ($13!). everything else was very reasonable.
we were out of there within an hour and 15 min. i will definitely be back to try more curries. take out is going to be hard to resist!

like it lots. really great authentic thai food, have gone 3 times and always left very happy.

the food was amazing, the people were very nice and we never felt rushed at all even though it was close to closing. would definitely recommend to someone looking for a “ go to” thai place

their food quality, taste and quantity is good. their green curry is tasty and recommend having it with plain rice. drunken noodles are good and a bit spicy and come with flavorful and adequately sized shrimp. their pineapple rice is not an item i would get again but it was decent as flavoring was slightly bland but with a nice pineapple bits that made it nice. skip the chicken cashew dish. prices average. service was good even though it was busy at the time. i would come again

amazing !! i completely get the hype and the #1 ratings. this place is absolutely fantastic and the food is phenomenal !! we came for a week day lunch, the restaurant was quiet, the staff were very friendly and the food was remarkable. i will be returning as soon as i can !!! the red curry had great flavour and was loaded with thick chunks of veggies : peppers, pumpkin, tofu and basil ! can't wait to try more. perhaps next time i will order more just to take home

excellent food and service. the place is small so you generally need a reservation for the weekend. but honestly every thing we tried on the menu was delicious. love the spicier items

khao san is one of my favorite places to get thai food. it is so busy that you almost always need a reservation! the food is delicious and authentic, the service is amazing, and the restaurant is clean and modern.

went for a large vegetarian family dinner when relatives were in town. food, presentation, ambiance and service were all amazing. will definitely be back.

one of my favourite places for thai food in calgary. the curries are flavorful and the pineapple rice is a very generous portion. the interior design is also very beautiful and comfortable. the service is great and servers are very nice. it is however a small restaurant so be prepared to wait or get a reservation. the satay skewers are a bit skimpy however for the price you pay.
