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 havegreatservice, food and atmosphere in the trendy 17th avenue. i can't wait to go back after the renovation.

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

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 hadgreatflavour 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

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 isgreatand 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.

i went here for a celebration dinner and it certainly didn't disappoint, from the delicious food to the lovely decor! the service was very attentive. i could easily see why the braised short ribs in massaman curry ($23) is one of their signature dishes, as it was absolutely delicious! the green curry (with chicken) ($16) was also very good; both curries hadgreatdepth of flavour and a nice level of heat. i didn't like the pad thai ($15) as much as at some other thai restaurants, but it was still very good. for dessert i tried the sweet sticky rice with thai custard ($5), which was unbelievably delicious! i am definitely planning on returning to try more of the menu!

my favourite thai restaurant in the city. the cashew chicken and pad thai are amazing. tom yum soup is good as well. pricey, butgreatfor a treat!

what differentiates khao san thai is the outstanding service. the staff are courteous, fun and knowledgeable. we were really impressed - 5/5.

the food was good - 4/5. absolutely must order the scallop starter - was perfect. we also ordered tom yum soups starters, the massaman beef rib curry and the chicken green curry with coconut rice. all weregreatbut not mind blowing.

the wine list is minimal (which is a big negative for me as i love wine!). they do have cocktails and other options available to try but we didn't venture to those. hard to give the beverage list more than 2.5/5.

overall i would be back - 4/5

love this place, amazing food, wine, friendly staff andgreatambiance!greatfor date night and tons of choices, a few must tries that are unique dishes are the scallops and the braised beef, the spring rolls and pad thai is a must as well!

great thai food. found it a little pricey and strange you had to buy the rice separate from the stir fry.greatatmosphere. can get busy on weekend so book a reservation.

i always suggest khao san thai kitchen to my friends when they're craving some thai food but want a good atmosphere andgreatservice as well. it's convenient location on 17th ave makes it easy to go out for drinks too! i would recommend the pad thai and thai iced tea - it's fantastic!

we were greeted at the door by a very welcoming host....  although the snow made us extra excited for some delicious thai food.  poung chom-poo-   steamed stuffed dumpling, minced ground chicken, roasted crushed peanuts, thai spices these beautiful dumplings are not just for show.  when we first bit into it, we got agreatburst of sweetness and crunchiness.  

finally foundgreatthai food in calgary!. this is far and away the best thai food i have had in calgary. moving from victoria b.c. i left behind sabhi thai, that was the best thai restaurant and i would go once at least every 2 weeks. moving here i have been disappointed over and over with the processed tasting thai food that calgary has to offer. some friends invited us to go to khao san as they had been told that it was great. the food was outstanding. started with the spring rolls that each came sticking out of a shot glass that was filled with a sweet chilli sauce.greatpresentation and the spring rolls were delicious! we had the yellow curry and it was amazing! the pad thai wasgreatand the fried rice was also full of flavour. everything we ordered was a 10 out of 10. the service was very friendly and attentive, always a nice smile and we were checked on frequently. my only complaint is that i live in the nw so i will take me 20-25 mins to get there every time, and after that meal not going is not an option!

khao san thai kitchen is not only the best thai restaurant in calgary, it is where we go to be with friends. whether we're celebrating special occasions, showing off to our friends with fine dining, or just plain hungry, it's the first place we consider going. sam, dao, and all the staff treat us like part of the family and we feel valued and respected with every visit.
customer service is high on our list, and if there'sgreattasting food accompanying that, you have a lifetime, loyal customer. khao san thai has the best of the best thai chefs from thailand to further romance your palate to ecstasy. wow! can't get any better than that!
see you all there! i'll be the one with the big smile, stuffing my face, and being served like a queen.

fantastic!. this is a small, quiet restaurant, with reallygreatfood and friendly service. enjoyed everything about khao san. you must give it a try.

great choice. what agreatrestaurant. friendly and attentive staff, excellent food, relaxing atmosphere and reasonable pricing ... you couldn't ask for more. i had the chicken pa-nang curry and pad thai ... delicious !
