I ordered the Tom Kha soup (medium "plus" hot with shrimp) and the garden rolls. Everything was super fresh. The soup was rich, flavorful, and there were many large shrimp (thank you!). The peanut sauce with the garden rolls is pretty amazing too. Excellent service. I will disregard other Thai restaurants in the area whenever I have a Thai craving and go to Jong's.

Yellow curry was excellent!

Diner Review №6

Jong’s Thai Kitchen is hands down the best Thai restaurant in Topeka, KS. This family owned business is a definite asset to our community! The food is delicious and high quality. They use very fresh ingredients in all categories, meat, tofu, vegetables and fruits. I am partial to their Pad Thai or Thai Peanut Salad but everyone in my family is addicted to their Garlic Chicken in various degrees of spicy. One family member loves their Thai Hot spice level and you can visibly see him sweat when he eats it. The Crab Delights, Fresh Garden Rolls, Crispy Potstickers and Steamed Dumplings are crave worthy. I also love their Tom Kha soup. Well spiced and complex in structure. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu…..

I called and ordered pickup. Had no issues, first time having their food. I've heard such good things about them. Food lived up to the reccomendations! Plan on ordering to go often! I see a lot of reviews mad about there not being tables or reservations. Order to go. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Food is totally worth it. The Thai tea too!

Diner Review №8

We LOVE Jong’s! The food is so fresh and full of flavor! My husband is Indian and is sometimes disappointed in lack of spice here in the states, but he LOVES Thai Spice heat at Jong’s. I am obsessed with the Pad See Ew and my husband loves the house fried rice and Linda’s Sweet Chili Noodles. The people are delightful and generous and the rests itself is so sweet and cozy! Highly highly highly recommend!

Diner Review №9

The best Thai food in Topeka! All of the employees are so kind and the food is even better! Our food is always ready within 10-15 minutes when we order take out, sometimes even sooner. 10/10 would recommend!

Diner Review №10

My favorite place in Topeka to eat. Can’t say enough good things about Jong’s. A true gem and the owners are amazing people.
Food is consistently delicious.
Jong’s is part of a monthly budget and will continue to be;)

Diner Review №11

Tremendous food. Everyone is so kind and wonderful, as well. We are so fortunate to have a restaurant of this caliber in Topeka.

Diner Review №12

If I could give more stars to service I would. We came in not realizing that reservations had been made for all the tables. We made a reservation for the next available dinner spot. As my partner and I were deciding if we wanted takeout or not (we were offered a free drink just for coming that way, which we declined) then a table became open and we were seated. We got our drink orders in Iced Tai Tea for both of us and then ordered our appatizers of dumplings. While waiting I watched two different package delivery guys come in and the owner offered each of them drinks. Just this alone makes me feel good about coming here. While we were waiting for our mains we were brought extra samplings of fried dumplings, crab delights, and the most amazing fried green beans. Everything was amazing. Our mains were Beef Pad Thai for myself and Linda’s Sweet chili noodle. The portions were large and neither of us could finish it. Yay for leftovers for lunch! Everything we had was Delicious and the atmosphere was cozy and more like going to friends house for dinner vs a large cooperate place. I’m excited for our future reservation. The only con I can say is that reservations are like 2 months out for dinner to eat in. If you don’t want to wait that long they have take out available. I think the service is well worth the wait so make your reservations! Thanks!

Diner Review №13

This place is a "must go" destination. Everything I tried was amazing and the service was top notch! My first time but definitely not my last!

Diner Review №14

Food is always really good, always fresh & hot, service is always wonderful, need more local business like this! Also I only ordered the chicken and they gave me a complementary drink and two crab raccoons 🙏🏾

Diner Review №15

Walking into Jong’s Thai Kitchen feels like stepping into a warm embrace of authentic Thai culture, hospitality, and flavors. This isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a love letter to Thai cuisine.

From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with smiles that feel genuine, as though you’ve been invited to a family gathering. The ambiance is cozy, with just the right mix of charm and simplicity to let the food do all the talking.

And oh, the food! Where do I even begin?

Go there and see for yourself!

Diner Review №16

Between the great service, great atmosphere and great food I would highly recommend dining here. The food was fresh and top notch. Owners went above and beyond. Will be back!

Diner Review №17

Tonight was my first visit and I can't adequately describe what an incredible dining experience it was for me and my guest. The food was fresh, wonderfully-prepared and incredibly delicious!!! Please try this jewel of an eatery if you haven't already. I shall return!

Diner Review №21

The most amazing experience I’ve had in awhile, from calling to arriving the staff were truly incredible and so so kind!! Definitely recommend and will be back soon. THANK YOU!!

Diner Review №22

Great hidden gem in town. Super friendly family. Great food. Super fresh. Best Thai tea.

Diner Review №23

Best Thai food I've had in Kansas. Super fresh ingredients and amazing taste. The owners were so nice. There's a reason this place gets booked out for months at a time.

Diner Review №24

Food: Fresh. Authentic. Delicious.
Service: Attentive. Friendly.

Diner Review №25

This is must go destination! The staff are so personable and generous. It is in an awesome neighborhood and the food is amazing!! Delicious and huge portions.

Diner Review №26

Pricey but it was good. I spent 20 bucks on red curry shrimp and an order of egg rolls. I was curious as to how the food was. Like I said. It was tasty, unlike anything I've ever had but a bit costlier than I'd be willing to spend on a meal in the future.

Edit, 2 years later. I haven't gotten here in a while, it's actually hard to do now! Topeka redid the streets and you either have to hold up traffic on the street to get in (back in only) or walk a couple blocks from a sane place to park. Food was awesome (!!) Make sure you check their hours, went at 210 in the afternoon, closed, went back at 530, 90 minute wait for carry out. They are a popular place and, I think, for good reason. Got my food today. I called in this time, right at 5pm, was walking out the door food in hand at 530. This will be my go to strategy from now on! They recognized me from the day before and gave me a Chai Tea and some dumplings as an apology (I gladly accepted!)
In short, plan well and your palate will be awarded.

This is such a special restaurant! The food is always amazing the service is excellent and they always go above and beyond to make your dining experience that much better. They offer to customize dishes and always bring out extra apps and dessert and make an effort to visit and ask how everything was! Such a special local restaurant! Truly one of a kind

Diner Review №30

Always excellent food and friendly atmosphere.

Diner Review №31

Tried 8 times in one year, Could never get a table for 2. Just not worth the time to chase this very little establishment and no online reservation option.

Diner Review №32

Delicious food made and served by truly lovely people!

Diner Review №34

Service was amazing. Food to match. 10/10 would recommend.

Diner Review №35

One of the best meals of my entire life!
Excellent food and excellent service.
Can’t wait to return there.

Diner Review №36

When I tell you that I tipped my dish back to get every last noodle... Omgoodness! The flavors and the heat level was perfection. AND they veganized the pad Thai for me, which I appreciate tremendously! This place is a gem in the Topeka dining world. Treat yourself to Jong's Thai Kitchen immediately 😋

Diner Review №37

They let us in late for lunch when they didn't have to, food was exemplary and service was friendly much beyond expectation. Highly recommend

Diner Review №38

No word to describe how much I love this place. The food was so so so good. I had khoa man gal(chicken and rice) ,(steam) chicken was juicy, not dry at all , plus the sauce , they are just perfect!

Diner Review №39

Absolutely first class establishment! No where will you find friendly service, they take care of all customers as if they've been dining with them since the beginning.
The food is scrumptious, everything I've tried, I couldn't resist.
The atmosphere is definitely my preference, quiet and quaint.
Can't recommend enough, but call ahead because they are always busy.

Diner Review №40

Absolutely phenomenal restaurant. I can't speak highly enough of them, every single dish I've tried is delicious and the staff is so incredibly nice. 5 stars all around.

I tried the combination Pad See Ew today and I think it may be my new favorite. Just fantastic!

Diner Review №41

Most Topeka residents know this is an amazing restaurant but if you haven't tried it, you must! The month long reservation list wait is worth it! I called to make reservation for my anniversary 3 weeks in advance and they were booked. I got on the wait list just in case our date opened and got lucky! They have the most amazing food, the staff is so kind, the service is so personalized and they even had flowers with an anniversary card waiting! What an amazing dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary! Thank you Jong's Thai restaurant! We will be back!

Diner Review №43

We love this place. Food and service is amazing.

Diner Review №44

Everything about this place is amazing. A cozy, 6 tabled restaurant with the kindest staff! Food was incredible. Definitely recommend the Panang Curry and the potstickers!!!

Diner Review №45

Rarely rate a place 5 stars but I’m obsessed with this little place. Only 6 tables and a tiny kitchen so make sure to keep that in mind when setting expectations for wait time & carry out. However, well worth the wait. They brought us two additional appetizers “just to try” and everything we ordered was phenomenal. Friendly service and delicious food can’t ask for more!

Diner Review №46

Been here a few times now and it's always great. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Incredibly nice staff as well. There is generally a bit of a wait (the food is excellent and well priced so yeah) so in my experience it is a good idea to call ahead. I've done that the last two times and the food was ready by the time I got there.

Diner Review №47

Can’t wait for my reservation

Diner Review №48

Wow, Jongs is fantastic! The service, the food, the atmosphere are all 10's. The staff are so kind and the food is truly delicious, you can taste the love. The extras are the cherry on top. Delicious and glad you're in Topeka!

Diner Review №49

Wonderful food and people! My husband and I enjoyed our first of many meals here.

Diner Review №50

I cannot give enough stars for Jongs! The food is top notch very authentic and the service is unmatched anywhere in Topeka. They always make us feel so welcome and appreciated as customers. ...and did I mention the food is badass? I'd give them TEN stars if I could!

Diner Review №51

Very frendly staff,nice atmosphire,very clean place..good food..good presentation..reasonable price..u cant find anywhere that have refill thai tea.they even give us free appetizer..solid 5 stars ..def coming back..

Diner Review №52

They gave us an extra appetizer and were very kind. They were fully reserved, but we ate our delicious food across the street in the park and had a great time.

Diner Review №53

If there was ever a place I’d give a 10 star rating it’s Jong’s. The welcome you receive, the service and care, the amazing delicious food, and the sweet quaint atmosphere makes this restaurant top on my list of places to eat in Topeka. It’s a must visit and I guarantee you’ll go again and again. Dining in isn’t always available because the tables are reserved but take out is a great second choice. Try the Thai tea, they are very generous with it. Photo: Yummy, sticky rice with coconut cream and berries.

Diner Review №54

Great owners, delicious food, and the amazing service. Love it and would definitely be back for more.

Diner Review №55

We spent our 25 year wedding anniversary dinner here this week. It was our first visit but won’t be our last! The food was amazing, the service was terrific and the atmosphere was very quaint! We loved it!

Diner Review №56

My husband and I live in Emporia and we make it a point to eat here when we come to Topeka. The service and the food are unmatched. The host is beyond welcoming and accommodating, especially when they are super busy and the wait time is long. They offered us a free Thai tea before even ordering food knowing the line was long. We will be coming here as often as possible as we wish all the success to this fantastic place. THANK YOU!

Diner Review №57

I certainly believe that this is not only the best Thai restaurant in Topeka, but also maybe in Kansas in general. The three important factors all come together to culminate in amazing experience - food, service, atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious - they have perfected every item on their menu that I have tried. I am trying the dumplings today and they are so tasty and such a nice comfort food. The Pad See Ew was also divine when I tried it on a past visit. The service is next to none - they are so welcoming and kind and apologetic about even a short wait. They genuinely care about giving customers the best experience. Though the restaurant is small, it is mighty in hominess and comfort. Walking in you feel instantly at ease. Can't recommend enough!! Give it a try, you will be happy.

Diner Review №58

It was our first time at jongs! I was on a reservation wait list and got lucky and was able to go! I had the Thai peanut salad with tofu, husband had garlic chicken. Both sooooo good! Derek, nimm and jong all came out to meet to us and thanked us for coming. They are so nice and gave the best service. Can’t wait to go again!
Call and get a reservation or you won’t get a table!!! It’s so good!!

Diner Review №59

This place deserves 5 stars based on my one and only dine in experience there but I was tempted to give them 3 stars. I've been trying to reserve a table a few times and they're fully booked. Today I asked when they have something available and he said 2 weeks from now on a Thursday for lunch time. I wanted to treat my daughter there since she is moving out of Topeka for college but it won't be possible because I didn't plan a month in advance. At this point they should just consider growing their business and hiring more staff and renting a bigger location. It's a shame that it's so frustrating to get in like it's a 3 Michelin star restaurant.

Diner Review №60

I’m from Seattle and was visiting family in Topeka last month and didn’t have high hopes of finding good Thai food in Kansas, but was I ever wrong. Not only was their Larb and Phad Thai excellent, their service was also top notch! The owners are very friendly and obviously love what they do - they really want you to have a wonderful experience. Well, they were exceedingly successful, and now I’m so looking forward to coming back!

Diner Review №61

Authentic & Delicious 😋 so fresh! Topeka needed this! Yummy! We had dumplings, crab Rangoon, and won’t ton noodle soup - to die for.

For sure will be getting take out again.

Diner Review №65

Absolutely amazing experience. Food was delicious, portions huge. Service was top notch, best that I have experienced as a frequent traveler.

Diner Review №66

A wonderful and unexpected dining experience. Super service, family run operation, located in a historic building. Like having your Mom and Grandmother cook for you - delicious food! Will come back every time I'm in Topika.

Diner Review №67

If I could give 100 STARS I would!!! From the service, food, and atmosphere, they do all the little things right. There is no other place in Topeka like it. Great job Jong's Thai Kitchen

Diner Review №68

I’ve done take out from Jong’s many times in the past. Tonight was my first time dining in. It’s truly a dining experience unrivaled in Topeka. The food was excellent, the staff friendly, and the experience was a bit of a mix of standard dinner service and a chefs table.

Diner Review №69

The food was exceptional! We ordered a few different items and shared them family style every dish we tried was so delicious! The staff and the service were really great! We look forward to going back!

Diner Review №70

Jong’s never fails to make excellent Thai food and their staff couldn’t be nicer. More than once have I gotten a pickup order that has an additional item, free of charge, with a nice message written on it. The owner is beyond friendly and this will forever be my go-to Thai restaurant.

Diner Review №71

I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! The owners are so kind. We placed an order around 7:15 P.M, so 45 minutes before close. We were informed that it may not be ready until 8:30 P.M., and still let us order from them. It was done way earlier, and they gave us a call when they started on the order so it would not be waiting too long. Not only did they offer us a drink for the ride home after we showed up at 8:05, but they gave us a free appetizer for our wait which was shortened substantially! Every time I have ordered from them, the owners and staff are so kind and accommodating. Even without a wait, they treat us with amazing respect and service, always going above and beyond. Best Thai restaurant in Topeka, if not the best restaurant just based on the environment, the staff and service, and the quality of their food!

Diner Review №72

The food, service, and atmosphere are ALWAYS OUTSTANDING at Jong's!! They treat you like family

Diner Review №73

The owners are so welcoming, and the food is excellent!!

Diner Review №74

Jong's is always a 5-star experience! The food and hospitality are simply outstanding. It is one of our favorite quiet spots in Topeka. Whether we are on a date night, enjoying a celebration, or a meal with a friend or client, Jong's never fails to deliver an amazing experience. The minute you walk inside it feels like you're being seated in the dining room of a dear friend's home while they work their magic creating authentic Thai food that is made with the freshest ingredients. Tonight our order started with the green bean appetizer, NO words can describe how spectacular this dish is. I could eat it every day for at least a year. Some dishes are served family style, so we shared the Papaya Salad. Always fresh and bursting with flavor. The orange chicken is prepared to perfection with your choice of heat levels. We like mild+ and medium heat. The size of their generous portions often means there will be delicious leftovers for lunch the next day. We often get the Garlic Chicken and it is just as tasty. If there is any room for dessert, the mango sticky rice is a must. Everything at Jong's is made with love and care, served fresh, and delivered to your table with a friendly smile. I can't say enough positive things about Jong's and the lovely people that make it so special. It is a very special GEM located in central Topeka. Call ahead for reservations. We typically book our next reservation before we leave. They also have the option of carryout.

Diner Review №75

The service and food were both absolutely incredible. We ordered carry out and the man who took our order was so extremely nice and offered us free drinks while we waited. They had the order ready in no time, and even gave us a couple dumplings with a note saying thank you for waiting, which was so kind. The crab delight, dumplings, and pad Thai were all the best I’ve ever had, such amazing flavor. It’s hard to find service & food like this in Topeka, we were so impressed with them. Will definitely be back! Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time if you’re wanting to dine in, but the food quality is just as good with carry out unlike some places. Can not say enough about this place!

Diner Review №86

People who run the place are just fantastic and the hot and sour soup is the best soup I’ve ever had. Like, I’m going to dream about this soup.

Diner Review №87

Food was amazing ordered carry out got their pad thai with chicken and spice level was Thai hot which is amazing, got their pad see ew with chicken and spice level medium aswell as their strawberry sticky rice they also threw in some crab delights as a surprise !!! 10/10 must try again if your in Topeka TRY THIS PLACE WONT REGRET

Diner Review №88

I called near closing time and they stayed open an extra 10 minutes on a friday night to prepare my food.
The staff was incredibly polite and courteous on the phone, and even more so in person. I got the crispy orange chicken, beef fried rice, and pad Thai, each of the meals exceeded expectations. It's clear from the first bite that they're using fresh ingredients, and the flavor is to die for!
When I arrived, one of (I assume) the owners greeted me with a complimentary Thai tea (which is also delicious) and apologized for my wait, as if I wasn't the one keeping them late, then they gave me a wonderful chili pepper sauce, walked me to, and held the door open for me as I left with my order.
When I got home, I saw they threw in some pot stickers!
Wonderful experience, incredible food that you won't find anywhere else in the area, and a very kind and professional staff.
Way to make a first impression! I'll be back!

Diner Review №89

10/10 Best experience. Kind staff! I can’t recommend this place enough. The atmosphere is peaceful and beautifully decorated with fresh flowers on the tables. The family-owned atmosphere makes you feel right at home and part of the community/neighborhood/family.

The food was delicious! I highly recommend the papaya salad, panag curry, and Thai tea.

I would give this 10/5 stars if I could.
You should come here and enjoy!!!

Seating is limited, small cozy dining, so call ahead and reserve a table.

Went to Jong’s last night for our daughter’s 17th birthday dinner. They went above and beyond to ensure our experience was special. The food was incredible, but their service is what sets them apart. We had a large group and the team at Jong’s ensured we were all always taken care of. You can tell they love what they do.

This place is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! They are so nice and friendly and the food is outstanding! I can't wait to go back!

Diner Review №96

From the moment we stepped in Derek was very welcoming and accommodating making us feel at home. We were told there was no tables available since you have to make a reservation—make a reservation! If not, order your food take-out 😅
The food is amazing! Jong and Nimm are awesome! If there was one thing to try it’s the crispy green beans! Yum, just made my mouth water thinking about it.

It was pleasure meeting you Derek, Nimm, and Jong. Thank you for welcoming us and letting us enjoy your food.

Diner Review №97

Love the food and the service... The gentleman that takes the order is so nice. I made an order for 7 people at work, he patiently took it while I found out all the details of each order, and he helped me take it to my car. Highly recommended, and I will definitely go back... Love it..

Jong's Thai food is consistently good, and their Pad Ga Pow is well flavored with a well balanced spice level. It's a true delight to have this gem of authentic Thai food right here in Topeka.

Diner Review №101

I Love Jong's!!! Jong, Nam, and Derrick are amazing people and the food is excellent!!! I love their hospitality and love for their customers. I highly recommend eating and staying awhile!!!

Diner Review №102

Wow! The Jong’s Thai Kitchen is amazing little restaurant. The team was so warm welcoming and cooked with passion. The food was so delicious and the best Pad Thai I have ever had. If your are in Topeka and Jong’s is open go and get you a table or carry out.

Diner Review №103

We were visiting Topeka for the weekend and had to try Jong’s after reading the rave reviews! It was take out only when we showed up and a bit of a wait because we hadn’t ordered ahead, but the guy working was so nice—he gave us a call right as they were finishing our food and it was well worth the wait! Days later and we are still talking about how good the curry was. They were also kind enough to include a free starter because of the long wait! Definitely stop by if you are in the area.

Diner Review №104

Delish! Worth the wait!

Diner Review №105

Always the best and friendliest. Highly
recommend.

Diner Review №106

I’d heard good things about Jong’s. Far exceeded my expectations. Amazing food. Very friendly service.

Diner Review №107

The best Thai food in town! The service was spectacular, and the atmosphere was so cozy. I plan on coming back often.

Diner Review №108

Great place, fantastic food and even better owners! All four of the dishes we have were incredibly delicious. Thanks for making it a great experience from beginning to end!

Diner Review №109

Good amounts for a good price

Diner Review №110

This was my first time eating at Jong’s with a group of colleagues from work. We had EXCEPTIONAL service from everyone from the moment we walked in, to helping decide between dishes, to the attentiveness of water and boxing up leftovers. I had the pineapple curry and it was creamy, delicious, very well balanced with a sweet heat at the end. We also got the coconut ice cream that was fantastic. It took us a bit calling in advance to get a reservation since there is limited seating but it was so worth it. I don’t have any pictures of the food since I ate it all so fast but the presentation was equally as beautiful.

Diner Review №111

This restaurant was awesome. Food was great, and the service was even better

Diner Review №112

We hosted our rehearsal dinner at Jong’s and could not have been more impressed. They made a special dessert for our party and even gave us a wedding gift! This was already our favorite place to eat in Topeka and they continue to impress. Also the best Thai I’ve had! The friendliest people in town. Thank you, Jongs!

Diner Review №113

Great food and very gracious staff. Always look forward to visiting Jong’s when we are in Topeka!

Diner Review №114

Best Thai food in town! The location is small, so reservations are definitely recommended (and probably in advance - they’re popular!) but any wait is worth it for the food 😍

Diner Review №115

Best Thai food in the Topeka and Lawrence area! Highly recommend this restaurant. Friendly customer service. We have ordered takeouts many times, and the quality has always been excellent.

Diner Review №116

Came through town and stopped here. Although indoor seating was full, I was informed that I could purchase carry out so make lunch reservations when able. I picked up some egg rolls and pad Thai and the food was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend and will return.

Diner Review №117

If I could leave a higher star review I would in a heartbeat. My fiancé and I have been living in Topeka for about 2 years and just now found out about this place. This place quickly became one of my favorite restaurants I have ever had, I got the Ross's Special Curry and my fiancé got the Pineapple curry. We both smiled ear to ear with how amazing it was. Their steamed dumpling are also fantastic. On top of that, they gave us some free fried dumplings that matched the level of quality of everything else. I could tell so much love went into everything about this restaurant; the food, the atmosphere, and the service are truly top notch. We will be returning there regularly!

Diner Review №118

IF YOU’RE READING THIS GO THERE RIGHT NOW!!! I’m now convinced this is my favorite restaurant of all time. the food is INCREDIBLE, super large portions, and the best part undeniably is the staff. EVERY SINGLE TIME we order there we get extra freebies (crispy pot stickers and thai tea!) just for ordering!! yes, it can be a long wait but if you plan ahead it’s no problem and totally worth it! you’ve earned yourself a customer for life Jong’s!

Diner Review №119

My first experience at Jong’s Thai Kitchen was excellent! Although tables were no longer available, my wife and I enjoyed a lovely picnic at the park across the street. The meal was absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the crab delight, shrimp spring rolls, Thai tea, and Linda’s sweet chili noodle.
We are excited to experience the in-restaurant dining soon! This family-run business is a true gem for Topeka.

Diner Review №120

Very good Thai food! Nice and spicy with great flavors! Make reservations in advance, it’s a small place but worth the wait.

Diner Review №121

This is the best Thai food I've had! The service is top notch and the atmosphere is nice and romantic!

Diner Review №122

I am always dazzled at the experience I have whenever I eat at Jong's here in Topeka. Whether I'm eating in or carrying out, I feel cared for no matter what. The hospitality/service is like a breath of fresh air amidst the other restaurants in this city.

Not to mention that the food is very delicious and well made every single time. My wife and I eat here more often than we'd like to admit, but for good reason!

Diner Review №123

The customer service is some of the best I've ever experienced. They make everyone who comes through the door feel welcome and appreciated. The food is really good too. I can't think of anything negative to say of my many trips to this neighborhood staple

Diner Review №124

Great food! And very nice owners.

Diner Review №125

I fell in love with Thai when I was in college from a hole in the wall restaurant I discovered by accident. I have not come across any other like till tonight!!! The flavors from Jong's Thai Kitchen took me back to that moment! So good I highly recommend this place. The The staff were all very friendly and welcoming! They were packed so I could tell the food was going to be good. Wow!!

This might be my very favorite Thai place of all time, and I've lived in major cities with strong restaurant cultures! The food is positively outstanding, and the people who run the restaurant are warm, joyful, and generous. When my husband and I mentioned we were staying at a hotel in town, they gave us cutlery and bottled water with our boxed leftovers! If we lived in Topeka, I am certain we would be here every week. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend this wonderful place!

Diner Review №133

Not only was the food delicious, the owners were very kind. They personally stayed open when we were late due to a storm and made sure we had everything we needed and more. Very grateful!

Diner Review №134

We generally get carryout, but the dining room is nice. My husband loves the crab fried rice and I like the green curry,
pad Thai, or soups. I recommend medium spice level, if you like a little heat but not a scorching amount. One of my favorite restaurants in Topeka.

Good food and Great service.

Diner Review №137

Staff is very friendly and seems to care about their customers. Food is excellent! Will definitely go back if I am in Topeka again.

Diner Review №138

The place is tiny and plain on the corner of a residential street... a bit strange for a restaurant. But I must admit, the food was very good and the service was out of this world! You have to reserve ahead because it is a hot dining local favorite. A true diamond in the rough! It was a great experience that everyone should try if you love Thai cuisine. Prices are not bad for all the food they give you. I'm stuffed! I highly recommend this place!

Diner Review №139

This is local to me...just down the street! and I love it. Never fails to be delicious. my worry is they will be so popular they move to larger space!

Diner Review №140

After initially being told I would need to get my order to go, I was called and given a table. What a nice space.

While I was waiting (and they felt they had inconvenienced me) I was brought complementary wontons and a crab Rangoon. Both obviously hand made. Yum.

The pad Thai was great. Truly I haven’t had a bad pad Thai except for once. However what I really liked about this was it wasn’t greasy. So many I’ve tried have a pool of oil, not here.

While I was sitting there Jong came up and visited with me. What great service. What great food. What great taste. Give yourself a smile and try it.

Support family owned local restaurants that cook and serve so well! Thank you Jong!

Diner Review №149

My fiancé and I ordered takeout and it was absolutely amazing!! We’ll be coming back to dine-in. I love thai iced coffee and this one was spot on! Pad Thai was just the right balance between spicy and sweet. This is definitely a must-try spot in Topeka!

Diner Review №150

I was thoroughly impressed. I highly recommend this restaurant. My fiancée brought me here I am now a believer

The food was amazing. I recommend you give them a try.

A friend of mine introduced me to this place and all I can say is this is one of the best places to eat. The staff was so helpful and so kind. The food is honestly some of the best I ever had. I live 3 hrs away and when I am close I make it a point to eat here.. Excellent!!!

Neat little place just across from the park. Not many tables, but takeout was quick and delicious. They even threw in three fried dumplings because of the short wait! Beware online orders though, they do not offer online ordering but have had fake accounts pose as official. Call or come in for the real deal!

Diner Review №166

I recommend EVERYTHING about Jong’s! We ordered carry out over the phone and the young woman who took our order was so sweet! We even received a phone call to let us know our order was almost ready so that we didn’t end up waiting too long letting our food get cold! The young woman that rang me out was kind and the atmosphere inside the building was warm and welcoming at pick up. We ordered the crab Rangoon, crispy pot stickers, hot and sour soup, crab fried rice, crispy garlic chicken and chicken panang curry. The sweet chili sauce that comes with the rangoons is absolutely life! We’d eat it on everything…even though you definitely don’t need to add flavor to any of their food! Their flavors are on point all the way down to the perfectly cooked rice and the freshness of their crab! They even threw in extra crab rangoons with our side of sauce complete with a thank you note written on the top of the box! We have officially found our new favorite Thai restaurant!!

Diner Review №167

OK so I can definitely say that I’ve never had such exceptional customer service ever in my life! Every time I come here they seem to step it up a notch. From the moment you walk into the door to when you leave you are made to feel like more than a customer.
I’ve been to several restaurants and business but Jong’s Thai is the best I’ve had.
The food is amazing, customer service is outstanding everything is great!!

Diner Review №168

If you are going to Topeka, I highly recommend going to or ordering from here!
I am not normally one to leave a review, however, Jong's Thai Kitchen was so amazing I felt like I needed to write this.
First and most importantly, their food is amazing and SO delicious. Second, the people there were beyond nice. It felt like I was being treated like a regular customer when it was only my first time being there.
We had called in our order and they had mentioned at the very beginning that the wait would be about an hour, which was no big deal for us at the time, so we still placed our order. Then when we went to pick up they gave us a complimentary cup of their Thai iced tea (which is a must get, it was so delicious).
Then when we got back we found they also gave us a complimentary order of their steamed potstickers with a note saying thank you and apologizing again for the wait.

Great food! Great service! Really loved the “Happy Thanksgiving!” message written on the box of complimentary pot stickers (which were delicious) from my take out order. Thanks so much!

Diner Review №171

We stumbled across the restaurant as we were driving through and needed a lunch stop. What a find. Utterly charming hospitality and totally delicious food, all in a very comfortable environment. I wish I lived closer and this was my local.

Diner Review №172

Excellent food and really really excellent service!

Diner Review №173

What a special find! The owners are the cooks, wait and overall staff obviously loving what they do. The food is delicious and the dining room is comfortable and has personal touches. Check out the origami tip jar and single plant that has been trained and grown across the entire wall. This is the type of mom and pop I love to support. Make reservations as this is a popular spot with reliable, regular, return customers but they will work their butts off to get you a seat at the table. This restaurant is a for sure win for your dinner. Thank you. Keep doing what you do best. I will be back.

Excellent food with great service and really nice portions.

Diner Review №176

The Best food! And amazing service! Small restaurant so wait times can be long, but so worth the wait!

Diner Review №177

It was our first time trying Jong's and it was by far one of the best experiences locally that I have found. The food offers flavors and spice levels for all pallets. Seating is limited but the carryout was very timely 👌 and the staff are very friendly. A must try!

Diner Review №178

Wonderful, flavorful Thai. Had Ka Pow and side of fried rice. Made from scratch!

Diner Review №179

My dad and I went here and needless to say our expectations were beat, the food and the service was quick, efficient, friendly and great and we even were given free fried dumplings as a 'thank you for waiting' gift and the food was DELICIOUS!! I was also given a free refill of my yummy Thai tea and they adjusted the spice level for me to mild plus, which balanced out the flavours .. definitely will be revisiting for sure!

Diner Review №182

Best Crab Rangoon in town. Definitely going to eat here again, soon.

Diner Review №183

I finally made time to snag some takeout from Jong’s for my parents and I this evening and I quite literally could not have been more impressed. Even despite us calling uncomfortably close to closing time (sorry guys!) they provided the most excellent service and our dinner was SO delicious. They even went out of their way to include a free little appetizer that was more appreciated than I think they could have ever anticipated. I love the experience I had and will be back ASAP to share this local gem with my husband and our friends!

Diner Review №184

Good looking and good tasting food.

Diner Review №186

Wanted to try it out for lunch. Went there I was asked if we had reservations, and was told it would be 20 to 30 minutes before open seating was available. Does appear to be a nice looking little restaurant inside and out though. Just have to try planning better on next visit to try it out.

Diner Review №187

Amazing food and great service.

Diner Review №188

Diner Review №189

Absolutely delicious!! We ordered out and they said the expected wait time was 45 minutes, we didn't mind by any means, however, they threw in a free drink and some little crab Rangoon for the wait which was very kind of them. The staff very pleasant. Definitely 10/10 would recommend!

Diner Review №190

This was fantastic! My wife had been here before but we just got take out and it was all very very good! Awesome place and awesome people! We will be back and hopefully as regulars. Highly recommend and great place to support local!

Very good food, came out fresh. Good prices as well. Make a reservation for indoor dining or get it to go.

Diner Review №197

Crazy good Thai food. The Tom Kha soup is the best I've ever had.

Diner Review №198

What a wonderful experience! We are driving through numerous states and we were passing Topeka at dinner time. We chose Jong's Thai Kitchen because it was convenient and we wanted some healthy and tasty food. We had the pot stickers, Ross' Curry, and Mango with Sticky Rice for dessert. Delicious! The owners all treated us so kindly. We will be back whenever we pass this way (which is often). Do not miss this restaurant! Five stars all the way around.

A very special place. All things wonderful - the food and the family that prepares it for you.
