I got the mango curry and it was delicious and flavorful and it was enough to take some home to eat later. A Thai waitress at the Olive garden recommended it.

Went back several times when I visit Charles county and last time got chicken pad Thai and low mein

Diner Review №3

This was my first time trying this place and I will definitely be back. I ordered Him Ma Parn with Chicken and it was literally one of the best dishes I have eaten out. The price is reasonable and the staff was great. I will also utilize the take out option.

I called in a salmon dish and the basil crispy duck at 2:15pm which is considered lunchtime on their menu. I was charged $43.00, when I inquired I was told that because I did not say this was off the lunch menu, I was charged an extra $5.00. Highway robbery, the lunch times are clearly stated when do I or any patron have to say lunch when it was 2:15pm. I will not be going back, truly disappointed.

I’m not a local, nor do I live in Maryland but happened to be in the area and really wanted some Thai food. I used google maps and it lead me to this amazing hidden gem. I placed an order for multiple items and I was not disappointed. The Larb Gai was so flavorful, so was the crabmeat fried rice. I loved the crunch on the wrapped shrimp and spring rolls but they had my favorite Thai dish that is hard to find at most places the Pad Woon Sen, it was so delicious. I’d definitely go back whenever I come back up. Thank you for the delicious food.

The diet coke tastes like water, food was ok i guess but had a strong smell from the sauce but lady was nice

Diner Review №10

Food was stinky
Coke was nothing but water

Diner Review №11

Kaow Thai is such a gem! The food is absolutely amazing—so fresh and full of flavor. I had the drunken noodles, and they were perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. The sushi was super fresh too, and everything was beautifully presented.

The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the live music on Fridays made the experience even better. The staff were incredibly friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. If you’re in the area and love Thai food (or sushi), you’ve got to check this place out. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Diner Review №12

charged an extra $1 for requesting my drunken noodles to be less spicy, even though less spice means fewer ingredients. To make matters worse, I wasn’t informed of the extra charge beforehand. Poor communication and disappointing service. One star.

The food is so DELICIOUS & FRESH. Grilled Pork on skewers, Papaya Salad, and the Pad Thai Noodles are very addictive. Mango Sticky Rice dessert is heavenly & is a must try :)). Hands down The BEST THAI FOOD in SO MD. I ❤️ KAOW THAI Restaurant!🍜🍢🍤🍋‍🟩🫚🥭

When I was there I ordered a beef drunken fried rice this thing was delicious had a lot of flavors

Diner Review №21

Love this place ❤️

Diner Review №22

This crab fried rice is the worst I've ever had. I paid extra for shrimp, but all I got were three small cocktail shrimp that I had to cut up to add to the dish. The vegetables taste like canned vegetables with no rinse. There's no flavor, and the crab meat resembles thin threads that are few and far between. To give it some flavor, I added leftover steak and cheese and three packs of soy sauce. The shrimp and crab are overcooked, dried out, and nasty.

Diner Review №23

Very good.

Diner Review №24

I took my mom there for dinner this past week. I had the Drunken Noodles (Medium) and ordered the Amazing Roll. Both were good dishes but nothing super exceptional.

Diner Review №25

Came in on August 11, 2024 to order carryout. I understand being busy, but everyone was acknowledged when walking through the door while I stood for at least 30 minutes with no acknowledgement at all. I've been here many times before, so this is not the norm here.

Diner Review №26

My sister, her 2 adult sons, and I were looking for a place to grab lunch on the way back to SoMD from VA today and man did we hit the jackpot! There was only one waitress, Jenna was her name (I was so impressed by her that i asked), and it was slammed in there. I was initially worried that we'd get poor service with the lunch crowd and lack of staff. But holy cow, she was amazing and handled everything with amazing poise and grace! The food was amazing. I had green curry, the boys had chicken fried rice, and my sister had something I can't remember... we were all very happy with the food. We also had the calamari appetizer... delicious! 11 out of 10!

Diner Review №27

This place is so nice inside . Big bar and the food is delicious 10/10

Diner Review №28

First time and last time. Waitress super rude and only one working. Was really hot in there and food was subpar. I did ask waitress about some of the options, she was not helpful. Maybe ok for some, but I'm never going back. Oh and expensive too 😳

Diner Review №29

The Food is ok, though pricey. I have had better Sushi experiences at other places. Lack of local competition is good for this location.

Diner Review №30

Highly not recommended Carry Out:

Food: 4, 5 ish, Americanized. Large portions. I think after 2 times here, over time they will make it Native Thai , (hot), for me.
Service 2: I find this difficult how to rate for service; first time here with Jenna (rated a 6 customer service)carry out. 6/10 waiting for carry out at lunch very Nice, chatty, she asked and found out I love very native spicy foods and added all the small condiments including the fish sauce to our carryout.Today, it was beneficial i meant Jenna.

Today, 6/11 had to wait 15 minutes and go look for a Server in their establishment; Aurora (Service 0). She looked pissed I had to go and find her. Left over 20 % tip, (for CarryOut). No Nothing In The Bag except our Food?! Not 1 napkin, Not 1 fork, Not 1 spoon, NOT ANY CONDIMENTS!
If Aurora is your Server, Leave Immediately. If Jenna is you're Server, you will have a good experience.
Atmosphere 4: Had carryout my 2 times, establishment looks very clean.
Based on Aurora, a Server (0), the Establishment is reduced to a 3 rating Overall.

Today 6/27 lunchtime.
I had hopes of updating my Reviews to more positive for Kaow Thai for Carryout ;that didn't happen.
Perhaps a sign I hadn't noticed, though I think new, paraphrased; " You have to ask ; for napkins, forks, sauces". Again left a 20% for Carryout.
I DID ask for Fish Sauce, Hot Pepper Sauce, Napkins and Forks. IN my Carryout, received 2 napkins, 2 forks, 1 Fish Sauce no hot sauce.
Just my thoughts; if your business receives 20% tip for Carryout would you not want to encourage them to come back?
Kaow Thai, you will never have to worry about me asking for a "napkin" or any condiments, which most all other Establishments provide without asking, especially with their "generous"customers?
You WIN Kaow Thai. I don't ever want to cost you a penny more for Basic Service and will never be back. So many better Establishments in the area.

Diner Review №31

Never got served. One woman was rending bar and waiting tables. Seems like they are understaffed. I wouldn’t leave a negative review, but the woman working was chatting with the people at the bar and doing sidework instead of taking our order, making us wait and wait. We gave up and left.

Diner Review №32

Diner Review №33

I sat in the restaurant for over 5 minutes and nobody so much as acknowledged my existence much less gave me a menu. Worst service I've ever received in my life as a customer. I even walked out and thought I'll give them a second chance waited another 5 minutes and still never even was spoke to by any of the staff

Diner Review №34

My husband and I frequent this establishment as you can see from my past reviews. Normally, we have a wonderful experience and speak volumes about the food. This was not the case today. Today, we placed an order for sticky rice and as you can see by the photos below, the sticky rice we were given was moldy. I called the establishment to alert them of this issue and I was informed that they prepare the sticky rice in advance once per week and go through it to make sure they’re not giving moldy food to their customers. I am extremely disappointed as this is one of the few authentic Asian eateries located in La Plata. I will not be returning to this restaurant as I am now worried about the other dishes being prepared here.

Diner Review №35

Good food and great service.

Diner Review №36

We love this place! This is one of our favorite restaurants. The food is excellent, as is the wait staff and service. If you like Thai, this is well worth the visit.

The mango mousse cake is fantastic!

Diner Review №37

My wife and I have been here many times, she loves the green curry and I love the sushi, it’s fresh and hot. I have had the pad thai, drunken noodles, garlic shrimp and I love the fresh spring rolls. Update: We have. Eaten here many times. We go often. Tonight I was really upset. Ordered Pad Thai with Shrimp and Chicken. Got home sat down to eat and noticed a weird textured meat. Looked down. The to box bow was full of pork. I do not eat pork. So this was super disappointing. Added pics.

Diner Review №38

Excellent food and service with a knowledgeable and helpful staff. They'll make sure everything is nothing less then perfect and will make sure any dietary needs are met

Diner Review №40

I first visited Kaow more than 7 years ago and I was not disappointed. The food was outstanding, plentiful and perfectly seasoned, plentiful. Service was fast and wait time was fast; especially because l ordered several appetizers and entrées.

Diner Review №41

Tried take out, very polite and genial staff, the food was quite good. Entrees are in the $15 range. Note the rice side is in a smaller container than most Asian take-outs, so you might want to order more. I'd try again on next travel through area.

Diner Review №42

We stopped here for carryout on the tail end of our trip home from Greensboro, NC.
The drunken noodles are the best I’ve had in a very long time (since when I used to go to a place in Del Ray near Alexandria, VA)
Rich, complex flavors with balanced heat/spice. I ordered it with mixed vegetables (no tofu) and they assortment was varied and fresh. Mushrooms, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers, onion, snow peas, and green beans. The noodles were fresh and not clumped together like many places serve. Nice sized portion and reasonably priced.
I wish I lived closer. Sadly, I’m an hour away. Periodic road trips will be necessary.

Diner Review №43

It's not a bad spot at all. I stopped in for a quick lunch. It wasn't very full, comma the service was quick period I had drunken noodles.
With with tofu. I'm not that big on tofu but I decided to do something different. The food was good.
Even though I live a little distant way, if I was in the area, I would return.

Diner Review №44

Excellent food and great service!

Diner Review №45

I recently had the pleasure of visiting a fantastic restaurant Kaow Thai that left me pleasantly surprised with its delightful offerings and warm Valentine's Day ambiance. From the moment I entered, the atmosphere exuded romance and sophistication, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.

The evening began with a selection of strong and expertly crafted drinks that perfectly complemented the flavors to come. The mixologist's (Jenna)creations were nothing short of impressive, showcasing a perfect balance of flavors and presentation. Sipping on these libations truly elevated the entire dining adventure and gave me a slight buzz.

Moving on to the appetizers, I was met with an array of mouthwatering options (we chose 2 types of sushi and fried chicken and shrimp wontons) Each bite was a burst of flavor and texture, leaving me yearning for more. It was evident that the ingredients used were exceptionally fresh, as the flavors were vibrant and the textures perfectly executed.

What truly elevated this dining experience was the exceptional service provided by our server, Jenna. Her knowledge, attentiveness, and genuine warmth added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. She guided us through the menu with expertise, ensuring that our every need was met. Her friendly demeanor and genuine passion for the restaurant's offerings were truly commendable.

The main course (my wife had the drunken noodles with chicken and pork. I had the pad Thai with Chicken and vegetables) was a symphony of flavors, beautifully plated, and prepared with utmost precision. Each dish showcased the commitment to using the finest ingredients available and the attention to detail was evident.

In summary, this restaurant provided an exceptional Valentine's Day experience. The strong drinks, delicious appetizers, and fresh ingredients combined to create a culinary journey that delighted the senses. The romantic atmosphere added an extra touch to the evening. Not to mention, our server, Jenna, was an absolute gem. I highly recommend dining at Kaow Thai. And I can't wait to come back again.

Diner Review №61

Ordered the Thai shrimp rolls wrapped in rice paper with fresh vegetables. My wife almost threw up in front of me as soon as she bit into it. I’ll admit the rice papers look like condoms and it’s not something we are used to but the small amounts of shrimp had a terrible odor. We sent it back and they took it off the bill so we were okay with it and thank God I didn’t get sick after swallowing half a bite before spitting mine out too. The hot chicken noodle dish was good.

When they 1st opened food was great but quality of food has dropped to less than 1 star.
I'll move Star up to a 3. Their Service was always good.

This place never fails to deliver an amazing meal with the right amount of food and spice per serving

Lad na noodles is really good

Diner Review №68

Jenna was so nice and gave us excellent service! I ordered the drunken noodles with chicken and asked for gluten free, theyvdid a great job! They have gluten free soy sauce and notated gluten free for me all over. I highly recommend this place and next time I'm in town I'll be back! My partner had the traditional eggplant 🍆 he said it was great

**I had to edit this a few hours after posting because my wife got violently ill after eating some of the food. Should be a negative star and I’ll be fighting the PayPal charge tomorrow for sure!!**

I’ve eaten from here quite a few times but the last two times were really gross. I tried again today to give it a second chance because I really wanted some Thai food and was hoping the last experience was a fluke. It just tasted old, like really old. The food had kind of a gray hint to it and the broth tasted kind of rancid. It all ended up in the trash. Would not recommend as of July 2023. Two years ago it was fantastic but now I would be worried about getting sick.

Diner Review №75

I was allowed in a little early rather than wait out in the heat. Service was attentive but not hovering. Food was delicious. Atmosphere was pleasant.

Diner Review №76

Cool spot

Diner Review №77

It doesn't look like much from the outside. Once you walk in its a nice cozy restaurant! It smelled so good once we came in. The service was fast and good. We ordered papaya salad, chicken satay, three different sushi rolls, thai fried rice and thai iced tea. We'll come back for drinks another time - their alcoholic drink menu was appealing and a great bargain.

Diner Review №78

Diner Review №79

Kind of disappointed today with kaow. Been eating from here for a while and I can honestly say today was not a good day. I ordered the curry and coconut milk chicken with veggies as I'm eating I notice a strange texture to the chicken so after about 2 peices I look to see that it is still raw🤢🤮. So now after eating the veggies I'm thinking that's all I need this weekend is to be home bound sick. Really am disappointed!

Diner Review №80

Polecam! Smaczne tajskie jedzenie

Diner Review №81

I had my hopes up with the high reviews but takeout-wise, I would not order again. By the time my food was taken home, the Papaya Salad leaked all throughout the plastic bag and the mango & sticky rice was missing completely. The inari sushi was more sour than expected and rather small. It might be better to dine-in but this definitely discourages me to even try eating there.

Diner Review №82

The food is okay. Pineapple fried rice has 2 pieces of shrimp and 3 pieces of pineapple.

Diner Review №83

Our go-to place in La Plata for Thai food. Always good. Fast service.

Food was excellent & our waiter, Jared, was fantastic! I had the filet mignon & crab cake w/ asparagus & baked potato(huge & cooked to perfection) and Leroy had the seafood platter. Everything was delicious & plenty of leftovers. We will definitely return. Ask for Jared. He’s the best😊

Diner Review №87

The service was fast and courteous. The food was delicious. This will be a staple for me when traveling into the La Plata/Waldorf area

Diner Review №88

A hidden Gem in Charles County! This was our first time here to meet with family and friends. The food was perfectly cooked, fresh and delicious! You could feel the love they put into their food. This is definitely our new go to spot! If you are in the mood for some delicious Asian food this is your place. The sushi was also fresh and delicious. Generous portions too!

Love Kaow Thai! The servers are so kind, the drinks are great, the food is great, and the prices are great. If you're looking for a great date night, Kaow Thai is the place.

Diner Review №93

The red curry and sticky rice were both good but a bit on the bland side. The mango was slightly tough. Prices are reasonable

Diner Review №94

Excellent food and service

Diner Review №95

Both my wife and I are very peculiar in respect to Thai food. Not only that we get our favorite foods exquisitely prepared (including the best pork we ever sampled) but the service is great and the wait staff remembers our quirks and really cares. Moreover, since it looks to be a family busimess with some well chosen hired helpers, it is not unusual for one of the chefs to bring the food to the table and inquire about our experience. Although usually there are many customers in, tje redtaurant os big enough so we never had to wait for a table. All in all, the place to go for really good food of the Thai persuasion doubled by a general good feeling experience.

On Friday, the 28th of October 2022, I picked up 178.00 worth of food. I've been here many times before and the food and service are usually very good. This time however, one of my family's favorite appetizers, the fried calimari was not a Thai version. It was closer to the kind you get from an Italian restaurant. The sushi was dark and hardly edible. Half of the rice containers were only halfway filled. I ordered the whole fried fish (seabass) and only got a small container of spicy sauce. I haven't even looked at the fish yet. The soup, creamy curry based lemongrass had almost no flavor. I think my family and I will be getting our Thai food from our very favorite place, a little farther down the road from now on. Very very disappointed in the SUSHI and FRIED CALIMARI. Bangkok Golden down 210 highway in Fort Washington/Oxon Hill much > this nonsense.

Diner Review №112

The food is fantastic and the staff is very friendly. The drinks are also delicious. Is definitely recommend!

Diner Review №113

The food is absolutely delicious for great price. And our server/host was very pleasant and welcoming. We'll definitely be back

Diner Review №115

i usually get my thai from an award winning restaurant in DC. my first time here today and i was not impressed.

before i even tasted my food (tofu pad thai and shrimp pad see ew) there were two issues with my order. i asked for no peanuts on the pad thai, and had to wait for them to redo my order without them - i guess they forgot. for the pad see ew, they didn't have the wide noodles and never mentioned anything until i asked why it was made with the same noodles as the pad thai. the pad see ew came with 4 (four) small shrimp. wow

i got medium spice for both dishes and the flavor was lacking. not completely bland but nothing spectacular. both dishes were kind of dry. probably wont come here again

Diner Review №116

They never disappoint!!!! Food is so good my family and I go at least twice a week!!

Diner Review №117

This is my favorite local Thai restaurant. The food is always fresh and amazing, and the staff is wonderful :)

Diner Review №118

Great Thai place for the area. Pad Kra Pow, Pad Khing and Crispy Duck is excellent. The duck actually comes out crispy, not wet and mushy. Green Curry and Shrimp Choo Chee is also great options. If your not in the mood, Sushi here is also good. Kyow krob and curry puffs make great appetizers.

Diner Review №119

They used to make the best drunken noodles, I ordered from here tonight and it was like they prepared it for an infant. 0 spice. Even the Thai Iced tea tasted like water and milk as if they were conserving tea bags. Wasted my money.

Best Thai in Southern MD! Food is great and staff are friendly.

Diner Review №128

This place is amazing , my server Jacob was amazing the food was great and the atmosphere is perfect for a quiet night out. I recommend this spot to anyone who enjoys Traditional thai food and sushi 10/10

Diner Review №129

The food safety practices and customer service here are awful.

My husband and I regularly order from this restaurant — the same take out order every time. For some reason this time our food was ridiculously spicy (and we can handle spice — but this was insane) and we did not request our food to be spicy.

My husband calls the restaurant asking if our food could be remade and they requested that we BRING THE FOOD BACK TO THE RESTAURANT. mind you we’ve already thrown it away. They keep asking us to take it out of the trash can and bring it back to the restaurant.

Why? They wanted to taste it to verify that it was spicy. What in the world!? We state over and over that it’s unsanitary for multiple reasons but particularly because our sons diapers are in that same trash. Per their request we get the food out of the trash can bring it to them only for them to give us the SAME FOOD in a new container and with new sprouts on top. This was the most ridiculous customer service experience I’ve ever had.

Diner Review №130

Crabmeat fried rice (not pictured) was delicious. It came with a few shrimp on top. Egg wasn’t thoroughly distributed, most of It was on top. A bit over priced, you couldn’t tell if it was egg or crab meat. Hint: it was egg. Crab meat was quite hidden. $19.95

Pad Thai was a bit sweeter than what I was used to. Noodles were overly saturated in sauce. Wasn’t a fan. Lunch portion $8.50 (+$1.45 for shrimp)

Drunken noodles with chicken. It was perfect. I wasn’t used to it having tomatoes so that was interesting. Lunch portion $8.50

Appetizer: sweater shrimps long tempura shrimp wrapped in spring roll wrapper. Tasty.

Diner Review №131

Diner Review №132

A wonderful little Thai restaurant that's worth the venture every time. You will always get your money's worth of food at a reasonable price, and I have yet to have a meal that wasn't rich in flavor. This is an excellent place for vegetarians because almost all of their standard dishes can be made with tofu or with additional vegetables in place of meat or seafood.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a well kept bar and a corner set aside for local musicians to perform.

Don't forget to save room for dessert, by the way! I can personally recommend both the fried banana & ice cream, and the mango custard cake. My grandmother always saves room for the mango & sticky rice, in case you wanted an opinion on that as well.

Diner Review №133

Husband and I go here often. The food and sushi is very good, however, I'm giving a one star because of the customer service we received today. The guy that worked the bar during lunch time was very rude and unprofessional. So bad that we walked out. Ask to speak with the manager and he said he was in charge. Terrible!!!!

Diner Review №134

Food and service were on point.

I placed an order for crab fried rice. This is the only dish I order with the exception of the spring rolls. When. I got back home there was no crab only shrimp and egg. The restaurant argued with me that there was crab as opposed to trying to correct the order. That is not good customer service.

Diner Review №163

They were nice when I left my wallet but I waited an hour for my order when I ordered was told 20 minutes got there and my food was not ready. They were nice about it was just frustrating seeing as my daughter was waiting in the cat.

My sushi roll was falling apart and the rice was mushy, but the inside contents were good.

My dad lives in Thailand and has for the last 20 years and I visit him quite often. I know what authentic Thai food taste like and Kao Thai is one of the most authentic Thai food experiences I've had and the area. I highly recommend giving them a try if you're looking for a real authentic Thai food. They also have a friendly staff and a very nice environment.

I've have 2 meals in the past 2 weeks from Kaow Thai. They have definitely won me over. The staff is exceptionally friendly, the food flavorful and fresh. I've had the Tropical and Amazing rolls and the Lo Mein and Floating Market Noodle Soup. The lo mein was the best we've ever had, with fresh sauce and veggies. The floating market soup was incredibly flavorful, while still not being too off center for me (picky eater). Each Noodle dish was enough for 2 meals for me and 2 toddlers. I had a question about the grubhub charge and the receptionist happily answered it. Can't believe we've lived here for 5 years and just now trying this restaurant, don't wait!

Got the pad kra pao and veggie delight, both were excellent! Great, safe take out service too. So glad we chose to eat here while passing through. Would eat there all the time if I lived in town!

My family and I love kaow thai ever since they opened. They have a wonderful family atmosphere and the food is amazing.

The lunch special is pretty generous and was still piping hot by the time I got it home. Definitely fresh and very good! They're doing takeout only right now through the window in their foyer. Quick and easy.

This place is a hidden Gem, and the food is really good and fresh! They only do take out right now, but I can only imagine how good the food is fresh from the kitchen to your table. It was my first time, but I’m glad I stopped in. Try them out they’re pretty good! I will return. :-)

Edit: Originally I gave 5 stars. I took one star away due to the fact they used concentrated lime juice (Bottled) in their Papaya Salad a big NO-NO! The presentation was nice, but the flavor was overly bitter, and acidic not the taste I was expecting, or accustomed to. Luckily I had palm sugar at home to Sweeten it up a little. I would highly recommend they use fresh limes going forward. A slight disappointment there but will still return.
