    Spicy eggplant
    Iris L.

    Authentic Thai flavor and good value for money. It's a beautiful space, and I'd recommend eating in over takeout here. I got lunch takeout here and ordered it at the counter. It was ready within 10 minutes! Super fast. Their lunch special is a bit pricey but includes a lot: entree, soup, salad, a crab Rangoon. My total came to just under $21. Food: - Spicy eggplant: they were not kidding about it being spicy. It cleared my sinuses within the first five bites. I was really struggling to taste the flavor through the spice and I think I have an okay spice tolerance. I think I'd probably give this place five stars if I'd ordered something different but I gave up on eating this dish about 70% in because it was so painful. The ambiance of the interior looks so nice I wish I'd had the time to sit in. It looked pretty empty when I swung by during lunch hour, so you could totally do walk in then. I'll have to come back and try something else next time!

    Beautiful detailed decor. This place has a lovely setup and bar. Service was excellent and helpful staff. The food was delicious. We were there for some valentine day specials. Everything was super!

    Pad see ew
    Jing Z.

    We finally checked out Kiin Thai Sushi after hearing it opened recently--and it totally exceeded our expectations. We went for a weekday lunch and were seated right away, which was a great start. It had a chill casual vibe, good for talking. They have a huge menu. We kicked things off with the coconut soup ($8). It was wonderfully creamy, packed with generous pieces of shrimp, and absolutely perfect for a cold, gloomy day. For entrées, we shared the chirashi don ($26). We were a little nervous they might skimp on the sashimi, but it came with 10 thick, juicy, fresh slices. We also tried the pad see ew with beef ($14). The portion was solid, though the flavor leaned a bit flat compared to the other dishes. The star of the meal ended up being the mango sticky rice ($9). The presentation alone made us excited, and the taste delivered even more. The rice was perfectly chewy and sweet, pairing so well with the fresh mango. Overall, a great lunch spot with a couple of standout dishes--and we'll definitely be back for more!

    Hotate Volcano
    Erica C.

    This place is a gem and I felt transported to Thailand with the authentic flavors and dishes. Walking in, it felt like an upscale Thai restaurant. The decor was refined and the dim lights set the mood for a wonderful meal between two friends. My friend and I ordered multiple dishes and we would happily order it again. The Hor Mok was an aromatic custard - it was fluffy and filled with crab - it was like a seafood soufflé! I thought this was unique and delicious. We also loved the Had Yai Fried Chicken. The chicken had a crispy skin and the chicken meat was delicious. It is paired with a sticky rice and sweet chili sauce. The presentation was also fantastic. Additionally, we ordered the Pad See Ew which was stir fried flat noodles with mixed vegetables. We added tofu and they did not skimp on this protein. We also ordered the Hotate Volcano. It was packed with scallops and cheese, it was everything! We arrived a few minutes past 6PM, but the restaurant offers happy hour! I believe 3-6PM. I would definitely come back to try this offering. The food is delicious, the staff is amazing, and the quality and price is just right. Plenty of street parking available, no issues with getting seated immediately on a Thursday evening.

    Steamed Lime Fish
    Lydia C.

    I was very happy with this meal! The steamed lime fish is EXCELLENT. It's served in a fish-shaped dish and the visual presentation is lovely, though the dish is shallow so it's a bit hard to scoop the garnish and sauce or flip the fish without worrying about everything spilling over the edges. I've had steamed fish many times before, but this was my first time trying it cooked with Southeast Asian flavors. The fish fell right off the bones, and it was tender and juicy - plus, there was an additional bowl of sauce just in case you wanted to add more. The contraption that the dish comes on was new to me, but the server was happy to walk us through it. We also ordered the Thai fried rice, which I really enjoyed. The rice itself was very flavorful, though the veggies and tofu were slightly more bland. The roti massaman curry was a good starter, though not a stand-out. The roti is standard, while the curry is a lot more than you'd be able to finish with just the roti. We had some with rice as well, which was quite flavorful and pleasant (though maybe not intended!). This is an upscale dining spot, with intimate lighting and a quiet ambiance. I've heard good things about the sushi here, so I'll have to come back. To be honest, I'm not sure how it can top the Thai dishes - but I'm excited to give it a try!

    The decor inside is nice. It's a great layout and well designed. Service was on point. The place wasn't too busy so the staff was very attentive. The important part... the food. An interesting mix of Japanese and Thai. The sushi was OK but not great. I wouldn't pick my sushi night for this place. Of course, it's not bad, but some of the nigiri pieces just seem to have a random thing on top.. like a dab of mayo or a splash of something. It just felt like an afterthought for presentation and didn't add anything to taste... in some cases making it worse. Overall it's a decent mix of rolls as well. The rolls were decent and I would get those again. The thai food was very good. Roti with curry was a great appetizer. The fried prawns in tamarind sauce was the best by far. I would come back for the Thai food. You should come here. Try the sushi and the Thai food. I would say it's a great spot because it's sort of on the edge of Cambridge which means isn't less hectic for pedestrian traffic and cars.

    Deborah C.

    Came on a Sunday evening and enjoyed a great meal. Standouts were the Roti Masaman Curry and Kiin Roll. I also had a Thai Iced Tea, which was nice and refreshing. The ambience is nice but with the door left open, there were a lot of bugs flying around. I would definitely come back to try out more of their menu, but wouldn't sit by the windows/door.

    Welcome appetizer for soft opening
    Sasha M.

    The newest restaurant to open in East Cambridge. They are having their soft opening this week and I was excited to try their food. Immediately you notice the beautiful interior and decor. When we were seated we were welcomed with a complimentary appetizer for their soft opening which was so nice. Food: I got two appetizers to share with my partner and we split the Ancient chicken masaman curry which was definitely plenty. Their portions are generous and a great place to order different items and share. Also their cocktails are so yummy and under $15 which is so refreshing to see nowadays. Service: The food always came out in a timely manner. Our server was also very kind. For their soft opening they offered a 10% discount which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, I am so excited this place has finally opened and am excited to go again to try other items on their menu. The next time you are in East Cambridge definitely check them out. There is metered parking nearby, parking garages, and close to the Lechmere line! You gotta go!

    Beef pad see ew

    The decor is very upscale and food came out quickly. I enjoyed the shrimp chips they had on the table. We had the place to ourselves for lunch. The beef Pad see ew generous beef portion and came out piping hot.

    Kiin Thai Sushi offers a beautifully decorated interior, with lush plants and flowers creating a dim and beautiful ambience. We ordered the Hotate Volcano, Kiin Roll, and Pad Sew Ew with beef. Everything arrived steaming hot and with lots of flavor. The Hotate Volcano was smaller than expected and felt more like a dish designed for presentation rather than portion size, especially considering its price. All the food was delicious regardless. The staff was so kind and attentive! Even though we came in close to closing time, they were incredibly accommodating and welcoming. Great place for a flavorful meal in a gorgeous setting!

    Chicken pad see ew

    Love Kiin Thai Sushi for takeout or dine-in! The service is great and everything is delicious. The staff is super friendly, too. Will definitely keep coming back here

    Cocktails
    Alice Z.

    Such cute green interior and great service! Newly opened Thai restaurant, we got the pad see ew, roti, and curry. Everything came out pretty quick, and the drinks were very fruity and tasted great! They also gave us some complimentary shrimp chips to snack on while looking at the menu. Would go back again!!

    Hotate volcano

    Great service, beautiful interior, tasty food! We came to support on their soft opening and I cannot complain about a single dish. Everything was well balanced and tolerably spicy. This restaurant merges Thai and Japanese cuisines together, although it seems like the cuisines were separated on the menu. I wish there was some fusions dishes, that would've been fun to try! But everything was great nonetheless

I've gotten lucky with walking in but they have enough seating for one to generally be able to snag a table even around dinner time. During the summer, they have lovely outdoor seating! I've gotten take out here once and the food holds up well. Now onto the food... - drunken noodles: occasionally these are very spicy and occasionally they are appropriately spicy. They are always so excellent and the noodles are bouncy and chewy! I usually get this with pork. - pad see ew: this is my favorite Thai noodle dish and it's no exception here. Not as spicy as the drunken noodles but just a massive portion of filling noodles, chicken/tofu, and Chinese broccoli. There's something about the way they do the sauce here that is just so savory and delicious. It feels less greasy than it usually does at other Thai places, which I really like - pad mee korat: my friend always get this and raves about it.

Flavor-wise, this version was lighter and more lime-forward than the sweeter, dark soy profile I'm used to. It was also very liquidy, which didn't mesh well with the noodle type. The Pad Thai was fine overall. They use a different kind of noodle than I've eaten before, which was fun and unique. The flavor was solid, though not especially memorable. Portion sizes were very generous, especially for Boston. That said, at $17 per dish I didn't feel the quality quite matched the price, even with the large portions. Overall, it's not gonna be my go-to spot, but I'd be open to ordering again if a friend really wanted to.

The restaurant was buzzing when we arrived, but we were seated right away at the last available table. The space felt both lively and cozy, perfect for a date night. Service started a bit slow, but once it picked up, the pacing was excellent. Our server was more hands off, which worked well, letting us settle in and enjoy the night without feeling rushed. We started with the Larb Pork Dumplings, which were beautifully presented with chili lime mayo, fresh herbs, and crispy greens. They were fried perfectly, packed with bright Thai flavors, and the added crunch from the greens made the dish even better. With five dumplings, it was a great portion to share.

It has all of the flavors and textures of Khao Soi, with pickled mustard greens for acid, crispy noodles for a crunchy flair, and just the right amount of spice. I find myself craving it often! The one and only bone I have to pick with Black Ruby is that the service, while very attentive, is almost TOO fast. I get that they want to turn tables over efficiently, but the last couple of times I've come, I kind of felt like they were rushing me out. I came here to catch up with a couple friends and our food came almost instantly, before our drinks, and the waitress seemed eager to keep us moving. I think our entire meal was less than 50 minutes. While I'll definitely be back, I think it won't be somewhere I'd bring friends anymore since it's just not enough time for a full conversation.
