    Egg for young

    The food was top notch! Best cream cheese puffs ... ever! The egg foo young was so yummy and tasty, along with the Thai fried rice! Couldn't eat it all so took the rest home So happy to have this in our neighborhood!!

    Egg Soda

    Not only was the food amazing, our waitress Dasia ( or Deja as in de ja vu, as she said ) was so patient and helpful when explaining the menu to us! She really made our experience trying Laotian food for the first time absolutely wonderful!! With the road work going on, it was a bit of a struggle to get to the restaurant and SO WORTH IT. The sticky rice was WONDERFUL and an experience on its own; the egg soda was so different and delicious I would recommend it to anyone. My sons were both blown away by the flavor in the Mango Boba and the Sesame Chicken. I will come back again next time I visit Saint Paul. Five stars 100%.

    Kong's Kitchen is an Eastside gem in Saint Paul! The pho is amazing! By far the best I have had in the twin cities! The only condiment I added to it was their house made chili oil which is amazing! The fried rice is delicious and such a classic! Mama's stuffed chicken wings were amazing as well and let's not forget the vegetable egg rolls! They were perfection in every bite! Sweet n sour chicken was crispy and made with quality white chicken breast chunks! The food here is made with love! The Thai tea was good as well!

    Really good chicken fried rice and oyster wings. Priced about right. Easy on street parking.

    Thai Fried Rice with chicken

    Stoped here for a quick bite before an event. Was craving Thai food and couldn't have chosen a better spot. In the Pad See Ew the broccoli was the right amount of crunch but soft. And they were not shy with their portion sizes(especially for a great price). Tofu in the dish was perfection. let my Partner try some tofu for the first time, perfect first impression spot for tofu. The fried rice was delicious, can't go wrong with that dish. The Wait staff was incredibly kind and loved striking a conversation. Very calm and mellow inside with pretty decorations. Would definitely like to note, going on a hot day their ice water was beyond appreciated!

    Tried the chicken curry noodle soup and it was good. My friend who had the pho also loved that as well.

With two locations that are both consistently amazing, I've never had a single subpar experience. The restaurants are clean, simple and have great service. One thing I really appreciate is how clearly they label gluten-free and vegetarian options. The menu is packed with choices for different dietary restrictions. Every dish feels thoughtfully crafted and full of bold, authentic flavor. My go-to favorites are the pad thai, green curry, drunken noodles, Thai fried rice, yellow curry, and the spring rolls, they truly never miss. If you're new to Thai food, you can't go wrong starting with the pad thai and fried rice. If you like a little spice and depth of flavor, definitely add a curry to the mix. The portions are generous (perfect for sharing), and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. I can't recommend Coconut Thai enough!

I got veggie pad thai and chicken green curry. Both medium spice. Definitely "Minnesota medium spice". The flavors of both dishes were a bit bland, like the flavoring was muted or diluted too much. Don't think I'll try this place again, unfortunately. I was really hoping to find great Thai food here.

    I've ordered from On's dozens of times and they honestly deserved this review a lot sooner…read more Everything I've ever eaten from On's is authentic, delicious and bursting with flavor. I've tried numerous menu items, including their Laab, Pad-ga-pow, mango salad, pineapple curry, pad Thai and Prik Prik Moo Grop. There's another dish I've tried there that seems it's no longer on their menu but it was a curry seafood dish served in an actual coconut. It was amazing! My favorites so far are the mango salad and pad Thai. The #70 Moo Grop dish is a close one for top picks but my only complaint is the pork chunks weren't my preferred texture. The sauce, however, is a show stealer. I could literally drink it! It's that good. I've personally never had a negative eating experience with Ons but my husband did complain to me about their pineapple curry. He orders his food at the spiciest level, and I only ever tried a bite of his, but he thought it was very sour and tasted pickely. It was not the best curry I've had but I didn't think it was bad. I'm a seasoned Thai food eater - it's basically all I eat. So I've tried all of the Thai spots in the twin cities. On's is sitting in my top two. I've never eaten inside the restaurant so I can't say much for the service, but I have been in the restaurant to pick up orders and there isn't much to say for its ambiance. It's a very casual setting. My only complaint about Ons is that they serve their curry in shallow containers which makes for smaller portions. If they served their curry in soup containers and gave larger portions, they'd be my go-to spot every time. Right now, my other favorite Thai spot has them beat on curry portions. But that doesn't stop me from coming back for other menu items.

    Tried a new spot solely based on Yelp photos and reviews. I was craving a mean wonton (or three)…read moreand this was the spot that I decided on. When I drove by, I wasn't sure if they were open because it was so dark inside and we didn't see an open sign. I tried the spring rolls, pad see ew and the order of the wontons. I absolutely LOVED the spring rolls. They tasted fresh, and I enjoyed the basil in them. When I come back this is a must for me. The wontons were good and spiced well, but not my favorite out there. The main dish, pad see ew, got a lot of compliments so we went with that dish. I really enjoyed that as well - flavors of basil and ginger paired well with the thick noodles and veggies. I added chicken for $2 and I thought there was a generous potion of protein added for that amount. Was enough for me and my partner to share and had some leftover. Overall, great experience and we will be back.

    We went there before they closed down for renovation…read more Stuffed tofu is definitely my favorite item out of everything on their menu. It was crisp and vegetables inside felt fresh. The sauce that came with it is also a perfect pairing to the dish. The 4 pieces really fill you up so definitely good for its price. Portions are definitely good at this restaurant and you can easily find street parking in the neighborhood behind. Mohinga was okay. It was behind the first two times I came here. The fish cake in Mohinga was tasty as well as the fried peas. The boat noodle has very rich flavor. Broth was good and they gave generous amount of bean sprouts. La Phat Ye was good. They normally don't offer iced but we asked them to change. Overall, it's a great restaurant with decent prices and we hope that we can get back into business ASAP.

    I feel blessed to say that one of the best restaurants I have ever been to in the United States is…read moreliterally right here in the Twin Cities, because the food here is heavenly to the point of me consistently returning despite living far from the establishment. In terms of food, there is a mixture of Burmese, Thai, and Karen dishes, and each one that my friends and I have ordered has been a hit. The tea leaf salad has amazing texture because of peanuts and fried garlic, which provide crunchiness, and has amazing flavor because of lemon juice, fish sauce, and tomatoes. The noodle salad has a light taste without adding the given lime piece, and then the rich nutty taste gets evoked and elevated upon adding lime juice. The zaap crispy has very well-seasoned fried chicken pieces, and medium spice level gives it a good amount of flavor. The shan khao soi is so creamy and tasty that even tasting the curry broth itself is a sensational experience, and the chicken leg included literally has "fall off the bone" meat. The boat noodle has a mixture of sweetness and savor, while the sweet flavor does not overpower anything at all. Finally, the mohinga clearly has fish cake flavor and texture fully infused, making it authentically delicious. We also ordered the knyaw iced salad, which was a mixture of ice along with crackers and other types of sweet ingredients. I thought it was very similar to a type of Vietnamese dessert called chè ba màu (three color pudding), and fully enjoyed it. The establishment only had one dessert, and I thought that was sufficient. While the street contains many excellent restaurants, I personally believe that this establishment stands out in terms of taste. I must also mention that since my friends and I arrived when barely anyone else was there each time we had gone there, we never experienced any service delays that some have mentioned in their reviews. I probably will give this place a 5 rating anyway even if I experience slowness, although I hope I don't.
