Ka Prao Thai Cuisine

What a hidden gem. I lived in Thailand for a year and I’m very picky about my Thai food. This is my go-to spot. Always fresh, delicious, authentic, clean, and fast. Highly highly highly recommend!

I ordered to be delivery to my house. I had some pad thai. Not sure if it was because I ordered from door dash, I was not asked the spicy level. It was not spicy at all :( it was still delicious just wished it was spicy.

Uses to love their pad Thai but seems they recently switched their recipe to include more of a tamarind flavor/sauce. Also got the mango sticky rice one time which i loooove and the mango, although sliced, was rotting on the inside. So disappointing because their food is great for the mlst part but consistency is key always.

We love Thai food and always are looking to expand our personal restaurant catalog. This place was a definite homeroom and we will be headed back soon.

My wife doesn't life seafood so normally I get to hoard anything with crab or fish. I got a crab puff for myself but I should have gotten two. It was so delicious that my wife ate half the appetizer. (Who knows, maybe you have converted her to an appreciation of crab) The Sweet and Sour Sauce paired very well and the wanton was incredibly flaky.

The Yellow Curry was phenomenal. This tends to be my go-to Thai dish since it has hints of an Indian palette (my culture). The curry itself was one of the best tasting I have ever had. The vegetables should be cut into smaller pieces or cooked longer since they were still a bit tough.

I will say that the Chicken Pad Thai was a slight disappointment. It was still tasty but after having two spectacular dishes, I was expecting more.

The Thai Ice Tea was pretty standard (good) and the Mango Sticky Rice had a nice coconut sauce but the Mango we were given was a bit bland but I know that is the hazard with getting fruit when it is out of peak season.

We also appreciated that precaution taken to minimize my need to touch surfaces during the COVID-19 pandemic. I was able to order online and the only thing I touched during the pick up was the bag with my food.

In summary, lots of good food but some dishes really stand out.
