Came by on a Thursday night and got seated immediately... and then watched the line form right behind us. Timing has never been one of my talents, but apparently it was that night. Parking is a bit of a game of chance thanks to the tiny lot, so plan accordingly. Once you're inside though, the restaurant is super clean, modern, and the service is fast and attentive. We started with the papaya salad. It was just okay--I'm still trying to figure out why there was a blanket of romaine lettuce casually lounging on top. I ordered medium spice, which turned out to be "medium if you breathe fire for fun." The papaya was also a little more raw than I personally like. The tom kha soup was decent, but the real MVP was the drunken noodles with beef. Those noodles were absolutely swimming in savory goodness and perfectly soft. I would've happily ordered a second plate and called it "dessert." Overall, I'd definitely come back--mostly because those drunken noodles are already living rent-free in my head. read more

My family and I were heading to the Aquarium of the Pacific and wanted to find a good dinner spot nearby afterward. I came across this place on TikTok because of their famous Thai tea popsicle, so naturally I had high hopes. First off, we got incredibly lucky with parking. I can definitely see how parking could be a nightmare since the lot is tiny, so consider finding a spot part of the dining experience. When we arrived, the inside was cute and seemed clean. We were seated outside, which also looked nice at first glance, but I noticed quite a few spider webs around the windows. My boyfriend even felt webs brushing against his arm while we were sitting there, which wasn't exactly the extra ambiance we were expecting. We ordered quite a bit: spicy Pad Thai, Bang Bang Shrimp, Pad See Ew, mango sticky rice, and of course the Thai tea with the popsicle. I'll give credit where it's due. The Bang Bang Shrimp was easily the best thing we ordered and was absolutely delicious. The Thai tea popsicle also lived up to the TikTok hype, although the actual Thai tea itself was on the sweeter side. If you love sugar, you'll probably enjoy it. My biggest complaint with the food was the spicy Pad Thai. The flavor was great, but it came with what felt like a whole chicken farm and a cameo appearance from the noodles. I ordered Pad Thai, not chicken with noodle garnish. The Pad See Ew was also noticeably salty. Now you're probably wondering why I'm giving this place a low rating if most of the food was decent. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the meal. When it was time to pay, my aunt was figuring out how much everyone needed to Zelle her since the restaurant only allows a maximum of two cards for split payments. While we were trying to do the math, our waiter stood over us watching the payment screen like he was supervising a final exam. He was clearly waiting to make sure a tip was entered. My aunt politely asked him to give us a minute, and thankfully he walked away. Maybe when you see a family actively calculating a bill, that's your cue to...actually give them a minute. Keep in mind we also tipped 20% despite all this. Throughout the meal, he did stop by our table, but it rarely felt like he was checking in to make sure everything was okay. If anything I felt rushed. He also gave off that "customer service smile" that disappears the moment you stop looking. The cherry on top for me happened as we were leaving. We had been sitting on the outdoor patio talking for a bit after paying, which is pretty normal for my family. Before leaving, I went inside to ask where the restroom was. The guy and girl behind the bar looked at each other, laughed, and then asked if I was a paying customer. Keep in mind, I was literally holding a to-go bag with leftovers from the restaurant. I responded, "Yeah, I just finished eating," while holding up the bag that made it painfully obvious. Only then did they tell me where the restroom was. Nothing says "valued customer" quite like being interrogated about whether you actually ate there while carrying your leftovers. It's unfortunate because the food had some highlights, and the restaurant itself has a cute atmosphere. But the service made it feel like customers are viewed more as transactions than guests. Between hovering over us during payment and questioning whether I even belonged there after spending money, I left feeling more unwelcomed than satisfied. I'll happily support a restaurant that appreciates my business instead of making me feel like I have to prove I earned the right to use the restroom after paying for dinner. read more

Kin Long Beach - Thai tea popsicle - Thai Near Me - Long Beach, California

I was showing a NorCal friend around since I picked her up from LB and we needed to eat before visiting the aquarium. Originally, we were going to try to hit up Zuzu's petal, but the line was ridiculously long and the parking was a nightmare, so I decided to take her to my 2nd choice, which was Kin Long. I thought it would be a run-of-the-mill local, Thai place with food that is more homestyle and tastes slightly above average to hit the Thai food fix. Boy, was I wrong! First and foremost, they have their own parking lot, so YAY! It's starting to sound like my standards are low, but they aren't. OMG- their restroom is clean! JK. From the outside, it looked nice enough, but I was impressed when we entered. It had a comfy, modern, clean, and beachy elegance to it (the lights and that chandelier) without it being stuffy or looking disjointed in terms of interior decor. Servers were very polite and accommodating. I let my friend order since she was the guest. She ordered the garlic shrimp noodles and scampi shrimp to share, and the Thai tea drink with the ice cream bar. I ordered 3 cocktails (Jalapeno + tamarind, Lychee, and Thai tea martini) and they were all good (not overly sweet and weak sauce, but balanced, tasty, and had the right amount of buzz). We had a light lunch since we had AYCE hot pot later that evening (Mikiya - yes I'm a good host). The garlic noodles exceeded my expectations - shrimp were huge, seasoned well, and just cooked through, the noodles were broad, float, tender, and had a slight chewiness to it. The scampi shrimp were huge, tasty, succulent, and cooked perfectly (not surprised since the shrimp with the garlic noodles were so good). NOTHING WAS OVERCOOKED OR MADE ME GO.... "MEH...." and I've been to many Thai restaurants even the highly stylized kitschy ones like Farmhouse Thai in SF. The waiters were very attentive. They made their rounds to make sure waters were filled and all guests were taken care of. It helps they were also handsome too! LOL. I generally find many places nice in the competitive LA, but not nice enough for me to travel from the SGV. However, I will go out of my way to visit KL again to try the rest of their menu (drunken noodles, pork jerky, crab fried rice, papaya salad, etc.) because they left a good impression with me. Prices are reasonable and the quality of food, cocktails, clean restrooms, ambiance was coastal modern, has its own designated parking lot, and service was lovely. read more

Best Thai food we had in a long time‼ They were prompt in seating us, gave us suggestions and helpful. Food came out quickly. Ordered the Spicy Wontons, very scrumptious. The Garlic noodle shrimp was very comforting and enjoyable. Noodles were delicious, even though the pieces of bacon somewhat overpowered the nice flavoring. The shrimp I believe were prepared separately because they had no flavoring. We also ordered the Nutty chicken, was delicious, a little sweet but very tasty. And I did enjoy the Thai tea with the popsicle. Cute touch! The location is a little sketchy but clean and nicely decorated inside. read more

This place was such a pleasant surprise. From the outside, it looks pretty unassuming, but once you step inside, it's actually incredibly cute and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. One of the highlights is their Thai tea, which is served with a popsicle and seems to be one of their most popular items for good reason. It's fun, unique, and absolutely delicious. I also tried the salmon curry, which was something new for me, and I ended up loving it. The flavors were rich, balanced, and unlike anything I've ordered before. Another unexpected favorite was the wings. I'm usually not a big wings person, but these were surprisingly good--crispy, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. Overall, the food, drinks, and atmosphere exceeded my expectations. It's a spot I would absolutely come back to and one that I would definitely recommend to others. read more

All over TikTok because of the instagrammable Thai Tea drink! * Thai tea - tasted like a regular thai tea, the popsicle on top made it look pretty but tasted like ice, little to no flavor. * Tom Kha - I liked this one!! Kind of vegetarian, had mushrooms, a friend who doesn't like mushrooms loved it. Can't say much cos it's my first time trying tom kha! * Panang Curry - we all LOVED this. Beef was so soft! The sauce was already a meal for me. Coconut-y with some heat!! Yum * Pad Thai - you can adjust the level of spicyness. The shrimps were big!! Generous on that part. * Mango Sticky Rice MUST ORDER!! Mangoes were sweat, the purple rice had some texture, the coconut cream was just right. It was just perfect eating it all once. They kept clearing our plates like they were rushing us. When I say they came back many "MANY" times even we were still finishing up. Place looks fancy!! We were lowkey scared it was gonna be pricy but food were affordable! read more

One of my favorite thai restaurants!! So sad it's all the way in Long Beach :-( wish there was one closer to me. TLDR: huge portions, affordable prices, tasty food, but ok service. The staff always seem annoyed and anxious to kick customers out near closing. Regardless, I'll still keep coming back as it's worth dealing with in exchange for everything else being good. When it comes to thai food, I usually order the basics like pad thai and pad see ew. Both dishes were rich in flavor, perfect savory vs sweet, and not too greasy. I have a bit of a sensitive stomach when it comes to greasy food but their food satisfied my palate! Also their thai iced tea is INSANE as it comes with a popsicle so you're basically getting double the drink for only $7-8!? What a steal!! read more

If you're looking for a solid Thai spot in Long Beach, this has become one of our family's feel good go to places. Every dish we've tried has been full of flavor and genuinely worth ordering. Surprisingly, compared to other Thai spots, it's usually not overly packed and honestly I'm almost scared to say that because I don't want it to change. The service has always been great, the food comes out quickly, and the portions/prices feel reasonable. So far, our favorites have been the pad see ew, tom yum soup (medium spice), egg fried rice, fried calamari and the beef BBQ which was so good we immediately ordered a second plate. The mango sticky rice is also really good, but the portion is on the smaller side, so we ended up getting two orders since one plate is hard to share with more than 2-3 people. Parking has been easy for us so far since there's both a parking lot and nearby street parking. Definitely one of our favorite restaurants that's officially in our regular rotation. read more

Quick service and always checked in. Very cute modern looking Thai restaurant and their portions are very shareable. They have a lunch special going on M-F with a set list of entrees (with spring roll, rice bowl, and a salad). Price point seems similar to other places. Food came out fast and restaurant itself was clean. You can bring your dogs to sit in the patio with you which was nice after coming back from the beach. read more

I had a friend recommend this spot and had to immediately come check it out. I had been craving Thai food and there aren't many options over on my neck of the woods so we made the drive to Long Beach. Upon arriving, we were greeted and asked to sit to wait for a table. It was busy but not crowded. The waitress handed us menus to look at while we waited for a table which was a nice gesture and allowed us to be ready when seated. It took less than 10 min to get seated. Once seated, they were fairly quick to come and take our order. We ordered: 1. Satay chicken 2. Yellow Curry with Chicken 3. Beef Pad See Ew and 4. Shrimp Pad Thai Everything was absolutely amazing! I could eat yellow curry for the rest of my life and this was one of the best ones I've had. We did get a red Eden cocktail and a beer. The cocktail was good! Not too sweet or strong. Service was great, too! Friendly and very attentive. The restaurant itself is very clean and the decor is very demure haha it's cute and spacious. Very welcoming! This is such a hidden gem! I'm so happy we decided to try this place out. We will definitely be back!! Worth the drive!! read more

One of the various stops on my friend's bday food crawl last month. Definitely a delicious Thai food restaurant that bring tons of flavors. Kin Long Beach is located on the corner of E Broadway and Alamitos Ave, with the restaurant on the E Broadway side of the street. The lot is small and I don't know if there is any other parking options besides street parking (not my fav). Found a spot right out front luckily! The restaurant front it unassuming, with the plain yellow signage at the top. Don't let that fool you how beautiful and modern the inside is. Small to medium sized space but beautiful. What I can only describe as golden basket house pendant lights, dark wood beams and an open area design the space looks much bigger. It's separated by 2-seater tables on the right, 4-6 group tables on the left, a beautiful private10-person banquet room with more upscale cushioned seating and a TV, which then leads to an outside dining space, which is where we sat. The server was very kind and answered all our questions. I started with a Ruby Fizz for a drink, while my friend ordered the Thai Ice Tea. The Ruby Fizz is a gin based drink, but you could hardly tell it was in it which is exactly how I like my drinks. It was delicious! The Thai Ice Tea is definitely a show piece but every bit delicious. It comes with a Thai tea popsicle that slowly melts into the drink. For food we ordered the Chicken Satay, Beef Pad See Ew, Avacado Curry, and Pad Thai. The Chicken Stay was nice a juicy and the peanut sauce went well with it. Pad See Ew was savory with nicely charred noodles, the Pad Thai was everyone's favorite and my friends said the best they've had so far, sweet and tangy, tender noodles, and we got it with beef. Now the Avacado curry was my favorite! Red curry spice, creaminess coming from coconut milk, and the perfectly sliced avacado adding more creaminess to it. Perfect for vegetarians and meat eaters alike...I did not miss the meat. Delicious Thai food and great for groups! read more

My bf brought me here for Valentine's and I had a wonderful experience. We were able to bring the fur baby along which was a plus! We couldn't find any parking besides a parking lot directly across the street which turned out to be for Roscoe's (oops). Don't make the same mistake we did and be sure to find proper parking somewhere amongst the lively intersections of Alamitos & 7th. The service was great here; the staff were kind and attentive throughout our meal. Our food also came out within a timely manner. The restaurant is aesthetically pleasing and is perfect for date night for outings with friends/fam. I was so happy with everything I had! I ordered the Colossal crab fried rice on the spiciest level and it was absolutely delicious! They also give a generous portion of crab unlike many other establishments that skimp on the premiums. I also ordered the chicken pad se ewe on the spiciest level and it was equally delicious to me. My bf had the beef pad se ewe and he enjoyed it as well. Their Thai tea was pretty good too! Overall, I'll definitely be back very soon and I highly recommend Kin! Support your local businesses! read more

Bonus that there's a parking lot because it can be a challenge finding parking in the area. read more

Came here for dinner. Clean and nice decor inside. Ordered a pad thai and panang curry. The chicken in the pad thai was a little dry but the noodles were al dente, which is good. The pad thai was sweeter than we preferred. The panang curry was pretty good. There were many pieces of braised beef and artichoke. Went really well with the included white rice. The Thai tea with popsicle was good. We prefer it creamier or with more milk though. It tastes better when the popsicle melts into the beverage or in our case we broke the popsicle down into the tea. Water tasted like tap water. Affordable menu price. Excellent service. Free parking in parking lot. Close to Pike Outlet and Shoreline Village. read more

Kin Long Beach - Late Lunch Gem I stopped by Kin Long Beach for a late lunch around 1:00 PM and was able to catch their lunch special just before they closed at 2:30 PM. Honestly, the experience was so warm and welcoming--it felt like they gave me a little extra grace while they were transitioning into their dinner service at 5 PM, which I truly appreciated. Food: I started with the calamari (salt & pepper style), and it had this nice kick--almost like a mix of Sriracha and Tajín--with a dipping sauce and lime on the side. The batter did fall apart a bit when picking it up with chopsticks, but the flavor and crunch definitely made up for it. I also ordered a Thai tea that came with a large popsicle--such a cute and unique touch--and it kept my drink cold as it melted. For my entrée, I had the shrimp Pad Thai from the lunch special, and the presentation alone was beautiful. It came with a fresh spring vegetable roll and a side salad with cherry tomatoes and a creamy balsamic vinaigrette that I absolutely loved. My guest ordered the colossal crab fried rice, which was just as impressive. I also loved that they bring out their signature spice rack so you can customize your heat level. Service: The service was incredibly kind and attentive. The staff was super sweet and even allowed us to stay about 15 minutes past closing before they reset for dinner. That level of hospitality really stood out to me, and I made sure to leave respectfully. Ambience: The vibe is chic and modern, with a large screen by the bar showcasing Thailand's street food culture and authentic cooking scenes. It really adds to the experience and makes you feel connected to the roots of the cuisine. Overall: 10/10 for me! I would absolutely come back, especially to try their dinner menu. They also offer free parking, which is a plus--but spaces are tight, so I recommend coming early. read more

KIN in Long Beach seriously impresses us every single time! The Thai food here is some of the best we've had. We ordered the Thai fried rice with chicken and the coconut soup with chicken, both at medium spice, and wow, the spice level was no joke. If you're sensitive to heat, definitely go mild. Medium was much spicier than we expected! That said, the flavors were incredible. We also tried the baby back barbecue ribs, and they were so tender and delicious. They leaned a little on the salty side, but still totally worth it and packed with flavor. Parking can be a bit tight in the lot, but spots tend to open up quickly, and there's always street parking nearby if needed. Overall, such a great dinner experience, we'll definitely be back! read more

Probably hands down the best Thai food I've had in my life so far - I guess I haven't had too much Thai food in the past and I've definitely never been to Thailand before but this is THE spot. The green papaya salad was so crisp and refreshing, but somehow savory at the same time?? It was just made really well. And the panang curry just had such a nice umami aftertaste to it. Pad thai was solid too. I didn't get to try their drinks this time but I sure will if I ever get to come here again, they got a full bar inside in its own separate area. The interior is quite modern and classy, which is quite a surprise for thai spots. It definitely fit the occasion seeing we were there for New Years. The waiters also checked in often enough. I really hope to try the colossal crab next time, it looked really good and I definitely will swing by if I get the chance to visit long beach again. read more

Was visiting with friends in SoCal and wanted to try this place because of the Thai ice popsicle but we didn't even get it LOL got the Thai tea tho! The service was solid; they would check on us frequently. However, the food flavors were lacking. It was surprisingly kind of bland. I wonder if it's because we got the crab meat pad Thai? The tom kha was fine as was the mango sticky rice. But the interior was very nice so at least it was a relaxing place to enjoy food on a hot day! read more

This was the first time we ate at this restaurant since we were in this area . The ambience was great and noise was not too loud. Service was not that great as I expected. We ordered papaya salad, Tom Kha , drunken noodle and a drink for my daughter. We loved the Tom kha very much the taste was excellent and delicious. Papaya salad was 6 , one thing was missing during our meal was that they forgot our last order. We mentioned to the waitress twice about the drunken noodles, but it finally came out after we were done with the meal,without the apology for delivered late. I almost cancelled that order. The tables next to us came late but got all their orders. That was sad that I had to mention over with the waitress. Well , that was it , I valued very much on the service but this was very sad and SUCKs Won't be back for sure. read more

Love this place! Came here for Valentines day and I would definitely come back. I was already talking about what I want to try next time as there seems to be a lot of great food and drink options. The Thai tea is what drew us into this place along with the delicious plates that I saw. I would definitely recommend everyone to try the Thai tea. The drinks they offer from the bar look very well thought of. I had the smoky watermelon margarita that comes with Mezcal and it was delicious. Can't wait to try their other drinks on the menu. The food was absolutely delicious and they don't skimp out on the crab. You'll want to ask for some chili garlic sauce on the side to make it spicy. I finally got to try mango sticky rice for the first time, it was different from what I expected, but it's was good. Not too sweet, and it was almost like a warm oatmeal like texture with the mango on top. I probably wouldn't order that desert again though, but maybe it's not for me. They have some other really good looking deserts that I'll try next time. The service was great, the workers were patient with us, as we needed to scan through the menu to make sure we didn't skip over any options. They were very kind and kept checking up on us. This restaurant is right on the corner and has a small parking lot so shouldn't have to worry about parking on the street. read more

Kin's just does it every time. I have yet to have a bad experience. They open at 5pm so get there early because it gets crowded fast. Right next to Roscoe's on broadway, this place is the perfect stop whenever you are in Long Beach. The food here is family style and shareable. It's fresh and absolutely delicious. I always start with Thai tea. I love how it has the in house made popsicle inside the drink. It's not too swear, creamy and delicious. The orange chicken goes crazy! This was my first time ordering the drinking noodles and they were fire! I typically order the garlic noodles. Which is my fav. I would say try both. The crab fried rice is a must when I come here, along side any of their curry's. I love the avocado curry with all the spice! This is a perfect date night place. Or a night out with the family.

KIN Thai Cuisine in Long Beach off Broadway is a really solid spot. Parking is available, but it is limited, so just keep that in mind depending on the time you go. The restaurant itself is nice and clean, including the restrooms, which I always appreciate. The staff was very customer service oriented and did a great job making suggestions and giving tips about the menu and spice levels, which was super helpful. I started with the Money Bags, which are basically fried dumplings. Mine were a little overcooked, almost close to burnt. They still had decent flavor, but I'd personally rate them about a 2.9 out of 5. I also had the green papaya salad with mild spice, and the spice level was perfect, especially for people who are sensitive to heat. I usually stick around medium spice at Thai restaurants, but even the mild here still gives you a nice kick. For my drink, I got the Thai tea, which came topped with a Thai tea popsicle that slowly melted into the drink. Such a cute touch, creative, and tasty. For my entrée, I had the basil garlic sauce with sliced steak and a side of rice, which I really enjoyed. For dessert, we shared the mango sticky rice. It was good, but I do feel like it was a little overpriced for the portion size. Maybe part of that is because of the specialty rice they use that has the purple hue. I know a few places in Long Beach where you can get more for the same price. That said, the presentation was really cute with the flower garnish and everything looked beautiful. The atmosphere was nice. It has an open kitchen concept, so you can actually see the cooking happening, which adds to the experience. Seating is somewhat limited and the tables are fairly close together in certain sections, especially where the divider walls are, so you can definitely hear nearby conversations depending on where you sit. Great food, clean restaurant, and strong customer service. I'd definitely come back.

The hunger really kicked in after biking through San Gabriel River Trail all morning, so we searched on Yelp for a nearby place to have lunch. After some deliberations, we decided on Kin of Long Beach with its raving reviews. The restaurant sits on a corner lot with its own parking lot large enough for 30 cars. Inside, the decor is an East-West fusion, blending chandeliers with traditional Asian lamps. The combo of booths and bar counter seatings can accommodate around 80 guests. The courteous host guided us to our table and the waiter brough water and menu right away. After browsing through their menu, we ordered the following dishes: Green Papaya Salad: The dressing was nicely tangy, and the thinly sliced papaya strands were refreshingly crunchy. Peanuts, shrimps and tomatoes complemented the salad perfectly. Salt & Pepper Calamari: The mildly seasoned and battered calamari rings were crispy outside and soft inside. Perfect to dip them into the sweet and sour Thai chili sauce. Fried garlic and onion bits gave the appetizer a pleasant extra flavor. Salmon Fish Curry: The lightly flavored curry sauce was subtly spicy with a tad of sweetness. The wide egg noodles' texture was on the soft side. The salmon pieces were tender and savory. The bean sprouts and onions went well with the rest of the dish. Colossal Crab Meat Pad Thai: The tamarind sauce was gently savory, tangy and slightly sweet. The thin noodles were perfectly cooked, and the crab meat was super juicy. The fried scrambled egg and fresh bean sprouts balanced the dish's tanginess. The portions were generous and service was very good. Overall, a very nice lunch experience. read more

The trendiest and most contemporary looking Thai restaurant I've seen so far. The ambiance is so chic and inviting. A great place for dates or a group. I've only eaten here twice and the service has been attentive each time. Unfortunately, food does not have authentic flavors. It does not taste bad but for some reason they put way too much sugar in almost all their dishes like the curry and shrimp pad Thai noodles. I will not make it a point to come back due to the overly sweet flavors which is a shame because the restaurant interior itself is so stunning. read more

They serve it with a frozen popsicle of the Thai tea in a carafe and is a staple thing to order. read more

After a festival by LBC city hall we stopped in to have a quick dinner. LBC is happening in the evenings and weekends but most restaurants close pretty early. Kin was one of the only restaurants open until 10 PM. We were seated right away, and somehow the five of us sat in a private room. It was kind of late for me to eat anything really heavy so I just have my usual salad and it was the beef tenderloin salad. They serve it up with a lot of beef and less veggies. The beef itself was a little chewy and in large pieces. I prefer the meat to be cut a little smaller and would like more lettuce and cucumber. I got a little taste of the spicy fried rice, which was really good. Some of us ordered Thai tea and didn't expect what we received, which was the tea with a Thai tea popsicle. What a treat! The Thai tea itself was pretty standard, but that popsicle was like the icing on a cake. The places, modern and clean. Staff is helpful and nice. Parking is their own lot but can be difficult to get a spot on a busy day or night. read more
