This place is my goto to eat pho. It's freaking amazing! Reminds me of home back in Cali. It's always served at the right temp and just so fresh. I'm a norm to this place, service is always on point. :) read more

This place is freaking delicious!! I got the garlic & pepper stir fry with mild heat. Me and my husband also shared a crab Rangoon appetizer. The sauce they come with is top-notch. We will definitely be coming back.! read more

Dinner was amazing. I recommend the red curry and Basil stir fry. The reason I'm giving this place 4/5 is we found a hair in our fried rice and I would not be posting if it wasn't for the hateful waitress who basically made us feel like we were lying about it, even though I showed her. read more

Excellent food, excellent service! Clean and fast! Definitely recommend and will come back!

Simple atmosphere but delicious food. Very polite staff. I'll definitely go back and recommend to others.

We had 5 different items off the menu: dumplings, Thai cashew, Thai fried rice, yellow curry, drunken pad Thai. All of it was phenomenal. Definitely go read more

Great food, great service. Yelp requires 85 characters, brevity is under valued! Give Thai Kitchen a try!

Let's start with saying my least favorite food... Thai. Having to attend a workshop in the Independence area on the Saturday was not our idea of fun, so we decided to make the most of it and treat ourselves to a lovely lunch. Thai Kitchen = perfect choice! Staff was EXTREMELY helpful and kind. Restaurant is tucked away in a great little strip-mall off of 40 Highway. Tables have white table cloths and the menu is fairly priced and easy to read. The meal was splendid. Absolutely wonderful! There was a single thing we could say anything negative about! Again, this coming from the guy that doesn't like Thai food! Give it a try, I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised! read more

The Panang Curry is everything I want in a curry and the standard to which I hold all other Thai restaurants. The noodle dishes are good as well. read more

Food and service are consistently great. Lots of flavor and heat is appropriate for how it's ordered.

Family owned and operated love the delicious Thai cuisine, especially appetizers and teas!! Service and food quality are the best!! Highly recommend!! read more

This is our favorite Thai place. I always get the Panang Curry and it is delicious. My daughter gets the pad Thai. The crab Rangoons are great too. Staff is friendly. read more

Our favorite go to Thai place in the LS/Independence area. Be wary, if you are sensitive to spice, the medium can already be a little spicy! the entrees are also large enough to have leftovers. Best part is they have a drive thru to pick up orders when you call before hand! Brilliant. You won't be disappointed. read more

Tried something different.. the food smelled good.. but didn't have a lot of flavor at all. Wasted $35.. but I know it's not for me

The service and food are both always great! I highly recommend both their yellow and massaman curry!

Good food, but slow service. Crab Rangoon and spring rolls were excellent. Paid Thai was good - but not great IMO. We were seated quickly but it took quite a bit of time for the server to come get our drink order. Once our food was served, the server disappeared. No two-minute check back. Our drinks sat empty for ages. Finally someone in our party walked back towards the kitchen to get some help, and discovered everyone gathered around a table apparently having dinner. Now I know servers need to have dinner, but if they have tables they also need to watch that too. It was weird that they totally just abandoned the dining room. If not for that I would've given four stars. read more

Food is so good! Good service! Been coming here for years and I still love it! I recommend getting the cashew chicken! Thats what I get every time. read more

First time eating at Thai Kitchen and it was amazing! I got the Shrimp Pad Thai and the crab Rangoon. Food was fresh, good portion sizes, and the spice level is true to description! Don't underestimate it! I will definitely be returning! read more

This is one of my favorite places! I would definitely bring a date here. I'm in love with the curry. It's super nice and it's intimate! read more

Thai Kitchen has had fresh dishes and good flavor with everything I've tried so far, and their prices are pretty much on par with other Thai restaurants in the area -- the caveat is portion sizes. Compared to other Thai restaurants in the area, or near downtown/crossroads, you're getting about half of the portion size. This seems especially true with carry out orders. When you're paying the same thing and only getting 50% of what you can get elsewhere it starts making more sense to go those places instead. Very disappointing to see this change because I've frequented this restaurant for quite a while and this certainly didn't used to be the case read more

This is my new favorite Thai restaurant in the area! It is better than Thai Spice by far. The service is quick and friendly. Everything is spotless and clean. We ordered the summer rolls, the yellow shrimp curry and the beef phad thai. There were eight pieces on the appetizer- great for the price. Each piece had lots of cream cheese and crab, and the vegetables were fresh. The peanut sauce was a little thin. There were many shrimp in the curry, and it was perfectly balanced, sweet, savory and spicy. The potatoes and carrots in it were soft. I cannot say enough how delicious it was! The phad thai had lots of sweet sauce, and came as an enormous serving. The beef had been seared before being cooked into the noodles. We will definitely be back. Edit: we have now visited four times, ordering different food each time (I know, but we love thai food). Still great. Our only complaint is that we have yet to visit without finding hair in our food at some point. In the curry, in the spring rolls twice, in the drunken noodles. Not sure what is up with that- the server is always very apologetic and fixes it. read more

Food was lukewarm and sauce was like Water. Not flavorful at all. Service was ok but not very friendly. Ambiance was ok.

This is family run business and you can absolutely tell by the love in their food! It's SOO good! I would highly recommend, especially if you love spicy food :) Staff is super helpful and polite! read more

Outstanding. I love Thai food - especially Thai curry- so trust me when I say this place rocks! Their panang curry is especially umami and nutty, just delectable, and their steamed dumplings & crab Rangoon are also very enjoyable. We didn't love the fried dumplings as much, but it in no way detracted from our experience. When dining in, expect great service and friendly, enthusiastic servers (from past experience a couple of years back now). When getting carry out, expect an eager to please host & quick service at the drive through window! Check it out b read more

Ordered pad Thai with chicken shrimp. Waited under 10 minutes for my food to come out. It was delicious! Definitely recommend this place. read more

Best Thai around. Service and food have always been great. The Crispy shrimp dish is a must.

The food was really good & the service was friendly & attentive. A cozy attractive restaurant. The hot & sour soup was so good! read more

The location is clean, fairly small dining area, server was polite and helpful. The food was decent. The shrimp was slightly rubbery and sauces lacked flavor. I would give them a second try. read more

Delicious food, great service. Spicy Thai Basil and sauce were great and their crab Rangoon is so good....garlicky which I love!

I can't speak to the dining experience, because I always pick up my food through the drive thru, but I've had quick service and good food every single time. If I show up a couple minutes before time to pick it up, it's almost always already ready, and it's still hot when I get it home every time. Their Tom Kha and Panang Curry are my favorite dishes & I highly recommend them. As for the pricing, I've seen a lot of people complain, and I can't speak to whether or not their portion sizes have decreased. However, having gone to many small, locally-owned and/or family-owned restaurants with food from other cultures, to me the pricing seems fairly normal for this type of business. It's not just your average large chain, fast food joint, so I expect to pay a bit more for food. read more

Ordered steamed dumplings and pad Thai for pick up. Got home and saw that the cook changed the order. Who does that? If you're out of something 86 it. Don't substitute without the customer's permission. Very disappointed! read more

Love their Crab Rangoon's, I haven't found any better around town. I usually always get the Panang Curry Chicken, & request extra vegetables. Excellent meal!!! read more

Decided to give something new a shot, and noticed that they had several curry options. I've been in a very curry mood for about 2 weeks, because I'm impressionable and watch a lot of Youtube. Regardless, My wife got the pad Thai, mild, which she said had just a hint of spice to it. Basically what you'd expect for a scale that starts at "no spice." I got the massaman curry, and it was amazing. I got it medium after having a varying experience at other Thai places with their scale. It was perfect for what I was looking for, and I'm eating the other half today. Generous portions, with the rice, it was about a quart and a quarter. Absolutely divine. The potatoes in it were just done, everything magnificent. The texture was right, just everything that I was looking for. We also got some fried dumplings, which were, as you'd expect, fried dumplings. Pretty run of the mill. The egg rolls were good, spring rolls very springy, crab rangoon on the smaller side, but still tasty. I'm going to be working my way through their curry menu soon enough. read more

So I normally love this place but the staff is no longer friendly. I came to pick up some food through there drive thru and the waitress proceeded to roll her eyes at me and not treat me with very much kindness nor respect after that. As much as I love there food I will no longer be eating here. read more

Arguably the worst customer service I have ever had! I have eaten at this establishment for years now, and have never had any issues until today. I ordered some take out the other day and had some issues with the quality for the first time. I called and talked to the manager and was told next time I came in that she would take care of me. Well not only did in it get taken care of but I was treated like a degenerate to boot. The manager came over and was the most unprofessional rude person I have ever met. I will not be back there ever again on principal. read more

This is one of the more Authentic Thai restaurants around Lees Summit/Blue Springs area. The owner and wait staff are super nice and efficient. The food was excellent and tasty! The flavors are pretty accurate to the real thing...I am half Thai and half American so I know my Thai food flavor profiles and lived in Thailand half of my life. I am impressed with how fast and good the food was. Mind you, the base of things is spicy so ask for mild if you don't like spicy heat. The restaurant is neat, clean, casual and it's probably our family's go-to for Thai now! We are so glad it's near us! read more

I love the curry, seafood dishes, and the best crab Rangoon in the city! Thai tea is the best!

This place was ridiculously amazing! Their food was so flavorful and delicious. Their staff are so kind and accommodating. The restaurant is small, but it had a wonderful cozy feeling. I got the Thai Iced Tea (which was one of the best Thai teas I've ever gotten) and the Goi Tio Nua soup, which was absolutely incredible. Highly, highly, highly recommend this incredible place! read more
