Fantastic upscale Thai food with nice ambiance and great service. We got here right before Happy Hour ended so we got to order a few $5 apps with our drinks. Spring rolls were standard fare and delicious. Mussels were so great we saved the curry so we could enjoy it on our rice with the entrees. Never had fried koochai before but they were great. I loved the crispy pan fried exterior and soft interior. The sweet Thai chili sauce was a nice compliment. I don't remember the cocktail names, but they were fun and tasty. Maybe too sweet for my taste but I knew what I was ordering so no complaints. Kiin roll was delicious with a nice combination of tuna, eel, avocado, black tobiko, and mango. The duck paradise curry was one of best duck dishes I've had at a Thai restaurant. Duck skin was perfectly crispy and meat was not overcooked. They used boneless pieces. I'm not even sure how they got the bones out of the thigh piece that was attached to the leg. Paired nicely with the curry that was punctuated with pineapple and lychee. Overall great experience. Probably too expensive for us for weekday Thai food, but worth going to on a date night. Go and enjoy! read more

Kiin Thai Sushi combines Thai cuisine with Japanese sushi, creating a menu that covers everything from classic Thai dishes to sushi rolls and seafood options. We walked into a modern, comfortable space with a polished yet welcoming energy, the kind of restaurant that feels suitable for casual dinners, date nights, or group meals. The interior is thoughtfully designed, with a layout that accommodates both small tables and larger groups, and the combination of two different cuisines gives the menu more variety than a typical Thai or sushi restaurant. The sushi is one of the highlights, with fresh fish and creative rolls that bring together traditional sushi flavors with more unique combinations. We tried the jalapeño yellowtail and seared tuna, both of which added extra texture and flavor without feeling overly complicated. The specialty rolls were well composed, with each component coming through clearly, and the presentation matched the restaurant's more polished atmosphere. The Thai dishes are equally important and bring strong flavors to the menu. The drunken noodles and pad see ew both delivered on the balance of sweet, salty, and spicy flavors that make Thai food enjoyable, with the noodles cooked to the right texture and the sauces coating each strand evenly. The Massaman curry was rich and aromatic, with tender meat and a depth of flavor that stood out. The mango sticky rice is a nice way to finish the meal with something lighter and sweeter, and the presentation of the dessert added a clean, refreshing end to the meal. The drink menu adds another layer to the experience, especially with creative cocktails and Thai-inspired options that pair well with the food and help make the restaurant feel more like a full dining experience rather than just a place to grab a quick meal. The cocktails were well balanced and complemented the flavors of the food without overpowering them. Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience felt organized from start to finish. The pacing of the meal was comfortable, and the team checked in at the right moments without hovering. Kiin Thai Sushi is a strong option if you want both Thai food and sushi in one place. The variety, quality of dishes, and comfortable atmosphere make it stand out, especially for groups where everyone wants something different. It offers a meal that feels both thoughtful and satisfying, with a menu that rewards exploration and repeat visits. read more

Good for a work lunch! Fast service in house and for pickup. Indoors is fine, it's not upscale but it's decent. Lunch specials are an excellent deal, generous portions come with extras (miso soup, egg roll, crab Rangoon, side salad). The lunch special sushi is a mixed bag of- loved the spicy tuna, did not enjoy fresh mango draped over shrimp tempura (so weird). Thai lunch specials are your classics and you can choose your spiciness level. Pad see yew was great, imo. Overall, fast, generous, not crazy overpriced, perfect for work lunch but not a dinner destination. read more

So good Will be back daily to try all. read more

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! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

First time here, they were closing at 9:30 and we showed up at 9:10 PM, but they still sat our party of five! We had to order immediately and I chose the kaw soi beef. Whenever I see kaw soi, I always need to order it as it's not common. The beef was so tender and fall apart, the garnishes were on the side so it was nice to be able to decide which ones to put in the dish. I would definitely come again! read more

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. read more

Great atmosphere, feeling very cozy and intimate inside. The food has great presentation with Japan and Thai dishes to choose from. I would recommend any apz from happy hour menu and their tom yum soup. A little bit on a pricey side and have street parking only. Their services are very attentive. read more

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. read more

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! read more

One of the better restaurants in Cambridge. Really great food! The fried chicken was crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Drinks taste amazing. We also had the salmon avocado salad which was very refreshing. Pork rib curry had wonderful flavor and was so tender. Ordered coconut custard for desert which we were surprised was served warm but was comforting; loved the texture. Ambiance is also really cool; the restaurant is decorated very nicely. We will be back. read more

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! read more

Horrible service, I can't tell whether the food was good or not, we had a party of 5 , the restaurant was understaffed only 2 waiters for the whole place. The waitress forgot to put in a soup order, didn't remember who ordered what, brought food at different times and completely forgot my food, so I was sitting and waiting while my family were eating. The waitress never came back to check on the table. read more

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 read more

As a Thai-American, I'm constantly looking for authentic Thai restaurants all over the country, and am usually disappointed. Kiin Thai is a new Thai restaurant in East Cambridge that has some of the most authentic Thai food I've ever had outside of Thailand. It would hold its own in Thailand. Chicken Satay was perfectly grilled and moist and tender (surprisingly hard to find it done well in the States). Hat Yai Fried Chicken was eye rolling good. Better than what I had at the famous places in Hat Yai. The steamed fish (pla lard prik manow) was perfectly flavored - also hard to find with the hot pot style here in the US--My favorite Thai dish and definitely gets a thumbs up. We got the pad grapow chicken (thai basil chicken) which was pretty good, not the best I've had. And the Pad Thai was the wet style which I'm not a fan of (not a big pad thai fan myself). Mango sticky rice had the strong coconut fragrance you find when done well in Thailand. Thai iced coffee was perfectly balanced. Service was attentive and restaurant was very beautiful. I would hit this place all the time if I lived in Boston! read more

Oh my gosh. I've been to many Thai restaurants, this one clears them all by far. We got pad Thai with shrimp, chicken fried rice, and chicken satay. The flavor of the food was so good, felt really good quality. Sushi roll and salmon nigiri was good too. One of the absolute best meals I've had in Boston, and I'm not biased towards Thai food. Many restaurants have a weird aftertaste because of the cooking oils they use, none of that here. Service and ambiance were nice. read more

Great soups to eat during a cold day. We got the Tom Yum Noodle Soup and the Stew Beef Noodle Soup. Tom Yum had a lot more food and was tastier (more unique) than the stew beef. Overall food was good, service and ambiance was great. read more
