Koon Thai Kitchen

Carissa Swanson

It's a Monday evening and pouring rain. We only have a few local hideouts that are perfect for just such occasions and Koon is now one of them. We haven't been in since Ken's charming sushi & thai spot moved out of state. We will always miss Ken but AJ & his wife have kept the warm ambiance and they make incredible food. Also, Tanya is darling and my new fashion icon. We're trying to make healthy choices and we love comfort food. Most of the time it's one or the other, but we were able to get delicious, healthy comfort food here! The flavors were bright, the vegetables were crunchy and fresh. We truly regret waiting so long to try Koon Thai Kitchen. Once the fun bar vibe returns this will be a 5* [Photo: Hot Tea, Fresh Spring Rolls, Ginger Duck Stir-Fry & Mango Shrimp Curry]

Let's talk Thai. We all have our favorites - pad thai, pad see ew, pineapple fried rice, curry, the list goes on. No matter what your favorite is, I can almost guarantee that you will not only find it here, but also absolutely love it. Koon Thai Kitchen is my personal go-to for my Thai food cravings when I'm in the San Diego area. My personal favorites are their moo duo platter (which is an assortment of pork in a sweet savory sauce) and their pad see ew - both classic Thai dishes, but made extremely well here. The portions are quite sizable that I find myself always with leftovers (perfect for a second meal). Of note, my spice tolerance is practically non-existent. These dishes are in my wheelhouse, and I find them both enjoyable and flavorful. Now, if you are a spice lover, then fear not. They definitely don't skimp on the spice here, so your tongue will be in good hands. All in all, if you love Thai food, then you should definitely check out Koon Thai Kitchen!

We tried out this restaurant late on a Sunday night. They were about to close, but were kind enough to let us order and eat in. We got some fried rice and a mixed seafood dish. They have very generous portions and the food was very tasty. We enjoyed our impromptu dinner.

Absolutely incredible Thai food! Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The cashew chicken had an amazing crisp to it—even though it wasn’t fried—and was packed with veggies. The Tom Yum soup was hands down the best we’ve ever had: perfectly balanced, rich, and aromatic. We also tried the roti, which was crispy, fresh, and just amazing. The restaurant itself is clean and bright, and the owners are so warm and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!
