Diana H.

Pad Thai with chicken
Thomas B.

After a Yelp friend recommended this place, we drove by and decided to turn around and go to dinner. Three of us were all pleased with our selections and enjoyed a brief conversation with the owner on the way out the door. We all agree that we will return another time in the future! Thanks for dinner!

Chicken Pad See Ew (lunch portion)
Kristin P.

At last it may have taken a year but I finally found a quality Thai restaurant in town. I honestly can't say enough positive things about this restaurant! An unassuming yellow and green building that opens to a small seating area with an eclectic ambience. Staff is incredibly welcoming, and all dishes are made to order. My colleague, and I decided to go check out the restaurant after having heard positive reviews from friends, the recommendations did not prove wrong! We both ordered the Pad See Eww, tofu and chicken respectively. The taste was spot on and not overly greasy. Additionally, unlike its standard preparation the Thailand version is served with loads of veggies. with an abundance of vegetables. If there's any feedback I could offer it's that I probably would've liked it to have had a little bit more heat; but with that said, I'm sure they would have brought out chili had I simply asked. The lunch portion also came served with Tom Yum which was equally delicious!!!! Looking forward to returning

Very clean and fun atmosphere!

We have been trying to find good Pad Thai since we moved to Columbia. We found ourselves in the Lexington area during dinner time and ordered two shrimp pad thai for pick up. When I walked in, the space was clean and the man at the counter was so friendly! Our pad thai did not disappoint, it was the best we've had in Columbia and the portions were great - we both had leftovers for the next day. 10/10 will be returning!

Panang with Chicken, Crispy Wonton w/Chicken, Chicken Wings, Chicken Crispy Rolls
Joshelyn ..

This place is sooo good, I ate here two days in a row. My Dad and Step Mom love this place and took me here for my birthday. As appetizers, we had the wontons with chicken, chicken wings, and crispy rolls with chicken which were all delicious. For my main dish, I ordered Panang Chicken and it was AMAZING!!!! I LOVEDDDDD it! It was so flavorful, robust yet light. It was my first time having the dish and I was not disappointed. My parents ordered the Hurricane with the shrimp. They loved their dish as well. I wish they would've gotten the chicken so I could try it because it looked and smelled divine (not pictured)! The second day I ordered the 10 chicken wings with vegetable fried rice and Thai chili sauce. Not only did I have two days worth of food but I also had pure joy eating vegetable fried rice that had more than the standard carrots, onions, mushrooms and broccoli. There was also celery, cabbage, peas, snow peas, beans, and peppers. The owners are super nice and run a great establishment. I feel like it's a hidden gem, however, I believe that's what makes this place special. We got our food very quickly so yes, the service is super fast. Everything was fresh, affordability for the amount of food is unmatched, and the taste is beyond great. A DEFINITE recommend for great, authentic Thai food. You won't be disappointed.

Wonton soup
Dwayne A.

I've been eyeing this place every time that I drive by. One night I finally decided to give it a go. My girls and I were very happy with that decision. The first thing that we enjoyed was the decor. It gave us a lot to talk about while waiting for our food. The menu is wide, but not too overwhelming. The service was great and the food didn't take too long to come out. All of the dishes were full of flavor. This was a nice change of pace from the usual.

Rush hour on a Monday night.  A Friday night maybe would have 2 other diners.  There is a steady door dash stream.

Ask the Community - Thailand Restaurant

Do they have red thai curry and/or sticky rice?

According to the menu they have red curry. I've not seen any sticky rice though except with the mango & sticky rice dessert.

This was my first time eating at Kao, and as someone who absolutely loves Thai food, I was really…read moreexcited to try it. The atmosphere was amazing, a cozy quaint spot in a what seemed to be a great part of the city. The bar was nice and overall decor of the restaurant was eclectic without feeling overdone. Our server (I believe her name was Havvy), was pleasant as well. We started with the crab rangoons and spring rolls. The crab rangoons were a 10/10, and the spring rolls were solid as well. I'd definitely order both again. I ordered the pad kapow, which is my go-to dish I like to start with at any new Thai restaurant. The presentation of the rice was really cute and the dish itself was rich and full of flavor. My husband ordered the pineapple fried rice with beef, it was phenomenal, just as flavorful and satisfying. We ordered cocktails as well, which were made perfectly, and since it was our anniversary, we treated ourself to the coconut cake. After the first bite, I wasn't sure about the cake, but by the second bite I was SOLD. If you're looking for a laidback, non-pretentious spot to enjoy a great meal, cocktails or even just a small bite, I definitely recommend.

Pros: - Fair prices (it is considered "fancier") - Fun cocktails - Food was great - Seating was nice and spaced out (not super close to anyone) - Cons: - Food Menu was typical for Thai I'd overall recommend KAO. It's in a great location for downtown (super close to the beginning of mainstreet) and it's a fun little date night. I had the drunken noodles with chicken and my date had shrimp/chicken padthai.

I made a reservation at Baan Sawan Thai Bistro at 8 for Valentine's Day after hearing good things…read moreabout it. We were confused when we arrived because it was more like a house than a restaurant, but the interior was nicely designed like a small Thai restaurant. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and I ordered the shrimp tom yum soup and fried tofu pad thai, while my partner ordered the three flavored duck. The tom yum soup came out and it was lackluster. The flavor wasn't bad, but it wasn't as sour or flavorful as other tom yum soups I've had. There were maybe 2-3 baby shrimp in the bowl and they were overcooked and rubbery. After the soup, it took forever for our food to come out, close to 35 minutes. When our food finally came out, the duck plate was beautiful and I was surprised to see wide noodles with the pad thai. The flavor of the noodle itself was good but a little dry, and you could tell that the fried tofu had been pre-made and was just sitting out. It was not warm or crispy and I was disappointed after having to wait that long. Although the duck was delicious! To top it off, our server took soooo long to attend to us. We would see her talking at the bar with other customers while waiting to get a to-go box, waiting to get our check, and then waiting to pay our check. We were there for an unnecessarily long time and it made our patience wear thing. The food was good but not the best. Service was terrible so we probably won't be coming back.

I am extremely sad to write this review as Thai food is my…read morefavorite cuisine, and after having Thai street food on the streets & in the markets of Chaing Mai & Chaing Rai- I was HOOKED! The 4 main flavors of Thai cuisine are sweet, salty, sour & spicy, and the balance of each component, along with the texture- makes for an explosion in your mouth. We weren't expecting the food to taste the same, knowing that many restaurants & vendors change their food to cater to the American palette, but we expected the food to be good. The line was long, and we were excited while we waited. I spoke to 6 or 7 people in line, but they were all newbies like us. I noticed that some of the food looked as if it had been sitting under the heat lamps for a while (the fried chicken & the sad looking calamari that Joel thought were onion rings!) so we bypassed those altogether- knowing that the Thai have some of the best chicken wings in the world. Seriously! Look it up. We ordered: Pork belly fried rice: Joel said the pork was just okay & the fried rice didn't taste Thai at all. Veggie spring rolls: full of veggies - but were salty, lacked texture, and the chili sauce fell completely flat. Chicken pad Thai w/ medium spice: taste like sugar. Not tamarind, not spice, just sweet sugar. I always ask for extra lime & bean sprouts because I love the extra sour kick of the lime & the crunch of the bean sprouts, but I was only able to eat 2 bites because it was horrible, I felt like my blood sugar was going to go thru the roof! Thai iced coffee: horrible. I don't understand how they could even imagine calling this coffee. Unfortunately, this has been the worst meal we've had in Columbia so far, and I'm deeply sad because although it's street food, we expected it to be one of our best meals. And to the business owners, please do not reply with a comment stating how many people line up at your food stall every Saturday. They're probably new rather than repeat customers, or maybe they don't know what authentic Thai food should taste like. So please, I'm begging you, give us the food that you all cook in your kitchens at home, the food that you feed your own families. I promise, the people will love it!

I…read morewould go religiously every weekend to get these pork buns, but unfortunately had to stop because of the price increase. I get it. Things happen. Each time I come here I get the 3 pork buns ($12). They're delicious. They melt in your mouth with the marinated meat and soft dough. They're steamed and you receive them piping hot. Three is the perfect amount, as it leaves me full until lunch every time. I also love their boba, milk tea, and Korean corn dogs. The corn dog is nice and crispy, and always has a delicious flavor. I recently introduced my boyfriend to this place and he's been hooked ever since! There's a reason this place always has a line. Back when I first started coming, they'd be sold out of the steamed buns by 11am, and the market closes at 1!
