Celebrated the beauty's birthday... I'd had delivery & loved it but never visited so I was looking forward to it. There were 7 of us. I didn't get pics of everything but there were no complaints. The food was just as good in person, savory, spicy, herbaceous, just really, really good. The crispy duck isn't served as advertised. Flavorful yes, crispy No. Chill atmosphere & good service! #GoTaste&See

Koon Thai Kitchen is a neighborhood favorite that we have enjoyed for many years. We prefer to dine in ... and usually have enough for leftovers. They seem to do a brisk takeout business. During Covid they were a lifesaver for us. We didn't use Doorsdash as they delivered directly. Good people; good food!

Amazing food ! We tried spring roll shrimp and wontons ! We loved it Service and ambiance is excellent

Curry and soup were good. The rest was terrible but we were starving

Came here wanting to support because times are tough for small businesses. They were completely empty during what should be dinner rush. The food wasn't authentic and a few of the dishes were too salty and tasted awful which was a disappointment. The service was terrible. When I started to mirror her behavior she took her phone out and started recording our family eat. Which is what led me to write a review. You've got to be so out of touch with reality, to treat a family that just ordered 150 worth of food so poorly. Especially when we came with respect and support. She gossiped about us in the back so loud just to make sure we could hear her. Why in the world would you treat a family with kids this way? Hackling the entire time we were eating. Her issue with us started when she brought the sticky rice out and I was shocked at how very little they gave for 3.50 each. It was half the size of my husbands palm. So for our family of 4 to have just a few bites of rice, we had to spend well over $15.00 with tax. That's ISNANE!! This is not a Michelin star restaurant , and they can't be overcharging customers. This was the first time ever we've been scammed that hard. No wonder why they dont advertise photos of their sticky rice. No one would dare buy it. Once the owner (who I'm assuming was the cook in the back who was also partaking in the gossip) realized I've had enough and started to take photos of their very empty restaurant, his smile left his face and he snapped back into reality. They then offered to eat the cost of the sticky rice. Word of advice: DO NOT ORDER THEIR STICKY RICE. Just order their bowl of steam rice. Would definitely not come here again. That was a lot to deal with.

The service was outstanding! Our host was kind and attentive. He gave us recommendations and was very friendly. The food was delicious! We ordered the basil noodles which tasted homemade and unlike other Thai restaurants. We also ordered the duck ginger with a side of white rice. Delicious! Ambiance was calming and clean. It was our first time and if we come back i. Town, we will comeback.

Best Thai in the area. Friends had recommended this restaurant and I am so glad we finally tried it out. Will be returning very soon!! Amazing food and service!!

We came on a weekday when it wasn't so busy and got our food very quickly. My favorite was the Cashew Nut with tofu. It almost tastes like a vegetarian version of General Tsao's chicken from a Chinese restaurant. But none the less it was very tasty. The crispy cheese wontons were freshly crisp and cream cheesey in the inside. Lots of seating! Kind and attentive servers, too. Would definitely come again and try the rest of their menu!

Ordered 2 fiesta size bean cheese rice burritos and 3 quesabirria tacos with consome, warm and juicy burritos that melted in my mouth . More than enough for one person . The quesabirria was meaty juice and lots of flavor . The consume took it over the top . I even drank the remaining consome after all the tacos were gone . My tummy was satisfied ! Along with each order were tortilla chips snd salsa . If the burritos had a little more volume I'd give it a 4.5 But overall a good time and meal. Help out these locals !

I ordered a burrito from the menu board, which clearly states "choice of any meat." However, when I paid, I was charged an additional $0.97 for the meat I selected. If the menu advertises a choice of any meat, customers shouldn't be surprised with an extra charge depending on the option. I brought this to the staff's attention after paying and mentioned that the menu board may need to be updated so it accurately reflects pricing. Unfortunately, the concern was not really addressed. It may seem like a small amount, but it's really about clear and honest menu pricing. I've supported this place many times before, so this was disappointing. I'd appreciate hearing from the owner about whether the menu will be corrected so future customers aren't confused by the "choice of any meat" wording.

I was told I would be charged if I missied the reservation as well. Day of dinner, my party arrived at Elia 20 mins ealry and was still told they couldnt sit down. In that time the restaurant decided to let another party sit at my reserved table instead. Finally arriving myself ( still 5 mins to soare before reservation) I see my entire family standing in the middle of the restaurant. ( Only black family in the entire building of course) after questioning the fron door person she told me shes trying to get a table and wait at the bar?! 35 mins later my family was seated. Thinking I would have an apology for the miscommunication, I had to request my own birthday desert as they gave a lit candelr and song to guest around. And yes the restaurant knew it was my birthday they even had the menus changed. I go to this restaurant a lot so im still very upset how my family and I were treated and I bullied down to confirm my reservations multiple times. Overall. This is my last time at Elia. I hope this is reviewed and Elia updates their customer service. Thank you to the waiter who did her best with so many issuesz -Kiarra R.

On my last two visits we ordered just from the appetizer selections, and every dish was superb. After seeing a flaming dish at an adjacent table, I knew I had to try it. It was Greek cheese lit on fire, then extinguished with lemon juice. Fantastic. The lamb meatballs and the grilled octopus were outstanding. Definitely one of my favorte places to go.

It's so diverse and can barely ever miss back home but out here it's hard . With that being said I was craving some good ol fried catfish . I looked them up on Yelp and seen they have my favorite which is fried scallops so I said let's give them a try . This is a seafood market that sells fried food . Called my order in ahead of time. The person who took my order was polite and helpful . I got wing and catfish combo and wanted prawn and scallop combo . Unfortunately they were out of prawns by 4 in the afternoon . So I got catfish and scallops instead . Overall it was good . The catfish was fresh and melted like butter in my mouth . Chicken was nice sized chicken . The scallops were big not the little ones and cooked perfectly not chewy at all . The breading was fried right, not too thick or over seasoned . Fries could have been cooked a little harder but besides that my fish craving was fulfilled. I would try them out again .

They were also a good size for the price. 8/10 Fried cat fish was ok and would not get again. Still unsure if it was actually cat fish because it didn't really taste like it. Also unsure if these were frozen or freshly battered. Not too much flavor. 1/10 Fried Mac n cheese was probably the best thing. Crispy, cheesy and not too salty. 10/10 Potato salad had too much mayo for my liking and was too sweet. 1/10 Peach cobbler wasn't too sweet but overall really bland. The filling/crust had almost no taste and had a weird texture. 1/10 Banana pudding was too sweet but had good banana flavor. Pudding was a nice/smooth texture - 4/10 Fried meals had ok fries but were big portions. Overall i wouldn't come back which is unfortunate because the worker, Ali, was really kind and is the reason im giving 2 stars.
