    This restaurant is in a great location across from the Guthrie. It is good to make reservations because it is so much in demand. The authentic Thai food is fresh with a staff that is attentive. Their menu includes many favorable food choices from Vietnam.

    Sorry to say, this was mediocre, from the chewy chicken hidden within various noodle dishes to mostly forgettable shrimp summer rolls and variable levels of service at this noisy restaurant. The best part is that it's across from the Guthrie Theater so if you want acceptable Thai before your show, this will be OK (and plz make reservations if pre-show). I did try a side order of veggies and those were perfectly done (which saved them from a 2-star review). Note: Spice levels can be aggressive so ask.

    We made reservations to eat here before a show at the Guthrie and we were sure glad we did. This is a small place and gives a cozy eating experience. The ceilings are high, the decor is attractive. The service was excellent. We were seated and a server quickly asked what we'd like to drink and brought our drinks out. We ordered our food and my soup arrived. We didn't have to wait long for anything. Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. The curry was spicy, the vegetables were crisp and delicious. We had a really great experience and would definitely come back.

    Service and ambience was good, pretty packed restaurant. Food I got was ok. I have had much better Thai. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. Disappointed in my meal, not sure if I would go back and try something else. The others in my party enjoyed their meals. Spring rolls were tasty, portions were good.

    Randomly decided to visit Kindee Thai for the first time on a weekend and got seated quickly. I love not having to make reservations in advance and being able to get seated immediately. The staff was very efficient with us as we were in a hurry and they got everything to us promptly. We started our meal with cream cheese wontons and these were delightful, I especially enjoyed the tough of jam inside the wonton. I chose to order a curry dish while my boyfriend got the pad see ew. We both enjoyed our dishes and felt full and satisfied. The ambiance was nice and clean and the staff was very friendly.

    Cute space to eat at prior to the Guthrie theater! We were craving Thai food and decided to try a new place that was closer to the theater vs going to Sawatdee. Kindee was cutely decorated and the staff were very friendly. The portions were a lot smaller for the appetizers than the typical Thai restaurant so we ended up having to order double items of some things. We ended up ordering appetizers as our meal. It was a chilly day, so we ordered some hot tea. The mug and pot set were so adorable that we had to take a picture of them! Food: Fresh Spring Rolls with shrimp - I wish they would have told us it's only one roll (cut into 4 pieces) and we would have ordered 2 right away. *Recommend ordering the curry peanut sauce to go with these vs the sauce they had with them. Yumm! I want more. The shrimp were prominent and tasty in them. Cranberry cream cheese wontons - get them! So tasty and crispy! Crave-worthy! I'm pretty sure we got 2 orders! Hahah Fried Calamari - sooo goood!! The lime sauce is so flavorful and was one of my favorite flavors on the table! I want more now. It's a nice balance of acid and a teeny bit of sweet spice. Yum Yumm Chicken Satay- ok... so I love the curry dipping sauce but we didn't love the chicken. It didn't feel crispy and it was the opposite of that. Kinda odd and mushy. I wouldn't order again unless you ask to make it crispier? Idk... skip and eat all the other items we had. Overall I liked this place. Little spendier for the size of portions we've gotten at other thai restaurants. I'm sure it comes down to their location and maybe taxes, but update the menu with more specifics? We will be back again before the next play! The noodles/ stir fry and fried rice looked awesome. Next time!

    Cute place right next to the stone arch bridge and the Guthrie theater. I had the fried tofu. It had a nice texture and the sauce was really good. Could have used a little more flavor. I'd try spring rolls or pad Thai next time. Staff was friendly.

    Hot Pot
    Luke G.

    This was my first time ordering "Hot Pot" at a restaurant. I've heard about it, but never had the opportunity to order it. It's a little gimmick, but it's pretty cool. The soup is served with a live flame that heats the soup. There's a large variety of seafood, and the chilis can add an unexpected kick if you're not careful! The broth was good, but the fish didn't feel seasoned at all. The dish felt disparate, and didn't feel like they blended flavors well. The fried rice could have been fried longer and given a darker color. I'm not a fan of very lightly "fried" rice. I want the darkened browned flavor; and it was left lacking.

    Pineapple Fried Rice

    In the process of scouting dining options around the Guthrie, we couldn't miss the nearest exterior option, Kindee. A one-minute stroll away, Kindee is likely a tough table to land pre-show, so a reservation seems wise. One was not needed on this cold, quiet Monday in the city. We started with fried spring rolls, consisting of three cut diagonally in halves. Crisp and tasty, with a touch of sweet and sour sauce nicely offsetting the crunchy cabbage and onions. (I proceeded to slather the sauce on my last two portions and ate like it was my last meal, but no apologies - they were that good.) We tried just two entrees, both excellent, the pineapple fried rice and the ginger salmon. The fried rice had big chunks of pineapple and delicious dried cranberries. I felt the added pork wasn't the best as it dried out a bit in the process, but overall a great fried rice dish. The salmon was excellent, prepared a perfect medium rare. Either could feed 2-3 diners. Overall, a very good experience, with prompt service and great food. Sadly, only beer and wine are offered, but the selection was more than adequate. Looks like a dandy pre-show dinner spot.

We began with the Roasted Cashews, which were perfectly seasoned and addictive. For mains, the Red Curry was rich, complex, and comforting, but the star of the show was undoubtedly the Pineapple Fried Rice. Hands down, the best version we have ever had--perfectly balanced sweetness and savory depth. The drink pairings were spot on: I enjoyed a lovely glass of Pinot Noir that complemented the spice beautifully, while my partner had a crisp, cold Sapporo. Nong's is a true gem in Golden Valley for authentic, high-quality Thai food. The service makes you feel like family. Highly recommend!

The service is friendly. We were greeted shortly after entering. The restaurant was fairly busy, with many others dining in, and many takeout orders coming in as well, but we were seated right away! Several employees checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and were enjoying our food throughout our dining experience! They have many vegetarian and gluten free options. They also have some vegan options or items that can be made vegan upon request! We had the cream cheese wontons as an appetizer! The filling was very smooth and creamy and slightly sweet. We also had pad see yew with tofu and pad thai with mock duck. The servings are generous and each entree can easily last for 2 meals. They include a lot of the protein of choice, which I greatly appreciate. Some thai restaurants ask you for your desired level of spice, but we weren't asked here. They were mild (no spice) by default. The pad see ew had a savory, slightly sweet flavor. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the Chinese broccoli had a nice little crunch. The pad thai had a good balance of sweet, salty, and savory. For dessert we had the mango sticky rice! The mango wasn't particularly ripe, but the coconut milk provided the perfect amount of sweetness. I enjoy Nong's Thai and would recommend it!

The vibes are always there and I always feel inspired. The brunch menu is great, but I do prefer dinner. Khao soi is a perfect size to finish, and the pan roasted chicken is tender and juicy.

The Thai coffee is not too strong - I like that all their sweeteners for coffee and tea are on the side in the cutest little dishes.

The decor is super modern and cute, service staff was…read moreexcellent, and I could absolutely see them being in the running for a Michelin star one day (like the rumors have been saying!)...but there are a few things that could take the experience to the next level. First, I really wish we had been provided ice for our water since it's served from their room temp tap water vase setup. Also, the menu is VERY hard to read and I had a lot of questions about the ingredients. I just don't feel like our server walked us through the dishes/options very well, which would've helped a ton for first timers! Also, I wanted to try the Massaman for yummy brisket, but sadly they were out of it and didn't let us know until we tried ordering this meal. I wish they were proactive about letting us know it's out. With that being said, the food itself was still very yummy overall! For apps, the Siin Swan (beef jerky) is a MUST! It was a huge portion for the price and honestly one of the best values on the menu. The Thai basil wings were also incredible and definitely worth ordering here (or at Gai Noi or Lat14 if you've never had them before), they're so flavorful and crispy! For the "shareable" dishes, we ordered the green curry octopus and scallop crudo. I'm normally terrified of octopus/tentacles, but this dish was actually super good! The potatoes, peas, and bacon alongside it were delicious. The only thing missing was the green curry sauce didn't have a ton of flavor, which could've been the wow factor that pushed the dish over the top. The scallop crudo was a beautiful presentation, but looked nothing like the photos on Khâluna'a website. It's served cold in a chilled coconut lime broth. I personally LOVE lime and enjoyed it, but everyone else at the table thought it was overpowering. Also, the portion size was shockingly tiny for a dish labeled "to share" and costing $30+. These definitely felt more apps (or even individual entrees) than table shareables. I wish they changed this! The Laksa entrée was SO yummy! The peanut/chili tasting curry broth poured tableside was such a fun touch, and I appreciated it being served separately. Perfectly cooked shrimp, tofu, and all the toppings made this dish one of my favorites of the night. The bucatini, which I believe is one of their signature dishes, was also excellent, but definitely not your classic Italian bucatini, so just know that prior to ordering! It had chili/onion crunch toppings and a very undercooked homemade noodle, but somehow still worked because it was lightly sauced yet packed with flavor. Super unique and delicious! For dessert, the pecan shortbread was amazing with a homemade chocolate mousse that was TO DIE FOR! Don't skip this! Overall, really good eats, beautiful atmosphere, and creative dishes, but definitely a bit hit-or-miss when it comes to portion size and value for the price. I'm curious how their brunch is next!

The flavors here are wildly different.

I like closer to a thicker sauce for coconut curry. Usually the Thai places that have more watery coconut curry sauces just hits a little lower & it def shows. Amazing Thai has this same issue lol. Now, this place too... I feel lost without a fav Thai place in Minne lol. The string beans were crunchy in the papaya salad which was great but the entire sauce tasted like MSG & lacks the Lao shrimp paste flavor although it was more grey since I did order the Lao style but not enough shrimp paste flavor as it should have. Either this place has different cooks etc., it is not the same as a year ago or more. I took a few bites of each plate and I wrapped it up to go, and I threw it in the garbage since my stomach was churning had to take some Tums lol. This place, Amazing Thai, & Sawatdee are the bottom 3 for me. Back to the drawing table. (I've never seen an Asian person eat here... I guess that says a lot?)
