Customer Reviews
The khao man gai here is very yummy. Less than $20 with big food portions. I feel like I'm in Thailand again when I have each bite. Very good
food was great! i ordered the khao man gai tot (crispy chicken rice) and it was amazing! the chicken was really crispy, loved it. the rice was good, had good flavor and the veggies were alright. it was a pretty huge portion for me since there was lots of rice and lots of chicken. price also is good ($15). service was good, had no problems with it. overall, it was great! loved it. :)
We've only done takeouts from this spot. They have some tables for dine in but it seems most people get takeouts or delivery from here. The Khao Man Gai (Thai style) favor is good and their soup is one of the best chicken soup I've had. However, they reduced the amount of the chicken recently (compared to when they just opened), and the thickness of the meat is also much thinner(1/4 or 1/3 of an inch at almost at the thickest part). I don't like restaurants that do this and would prefer they increase the price. Otherwise you get the food and realize it's not as filling as it used to be. Considering it's just rice, sauce and cucumber as the other ingredients, I think the price they charge warrants more chicken meat. 5 stars for the flavor but minus 1 star for the portion size.
Near hotel we were staying at. I’ve eaten a lot of Hainan chicken growing up and I’ve missed it so much had to go in a get it. It did not disappoint! My daughter got the fried chicken and loved it. And the Hainan chicken was perfect! You have to understand Hainan chicken are serve room temp or slightly cold and bland you add the sauce to it. Took it to go because they were closing. The behind the counter workers were also super nice and helpful.
This restaurant was close to my hotel. I was so excited to try their Khao Man Gai ( Thai Chicken Rice). And it didn’t disappoint me. I got the mixed chicken one and order liver on the side. Their sauce is great. The taste is very authentic and reminds me of home. The real Thai chicken rice is served with soup and they do! Service part : they have a screen that you need to order yourself. Staff is nice.
