Made a stop for lunch today and felt like something new to me. I got the special with the Thai Chicken and rice and a drink. They gave me a large serving of crispy fried chicken and delicious rice with different sauces. The drink was a Twist which is basically a Tea and Coffee drink with milk. I loved it! This is a great spot for take out through DoorDash. There are only two people running it so be patient. It is worth the short wait. Enjoy!

Kao Mun Gai is a hidden gem. Seriously !! Every option we tried was uniquely different from another. Manager Maria is very professional and always smiling. The inside is inviting and food OMG one of the best Thai restaurants. Great selection of bubble teas, unique sodas. It is definitely a must visit and we will definitely be back. The store is locally owned and operated by the Oklahoma family. Buy Local, Support Local. Check out their food pictures. Highly recommended

I loveeee this place. Best place to get food and hang out with your friends. My favorite food from them is the friend chicken and rice. Their drinks are refreshing especially their matcha lava. Their staff are very kind and welcome especially the girl at the cashier. Should definitely visit them if you haven’t already!

Friendly staff in a cozy location. I love the pink soda drink, very refreshing. I’ve had the fried chicken plate and spring rolls and both are made fresh and have a lot of flavor. I love the sauces, soup, and cucumber slices that come with the chicken and rice, all provide a nice balance of flavors and textures. I usually have two meals from the regular size.

I was running errands near this place and had no idea what it was but as I left the store I was in, I smelled the aroma of their delicious food which was two stores over & figured I had to try it. & Let me tell you- that was the right choice! Following the delicious smell did not fail me. Got the fried Thai chicken & steamed rice combo with green tea lemonade & everything was delicious. The fried chicken was cooked almost perfectly, the steamed rice has good flavor as it’s cooked in or with chicken broth, & the green tea lemonade hit the spot & was light & refreshing. But the highlight of my meal would have to be the orange colored sauce which I think is their version of a sweet & sour with a little spice to it, which they make in house I believe (so it’s not processed with weird ingredients & is probably why the sauce is so good), I loved how it had the added spice, chili pepper flavors in the sweet & sour sauce, it pairs beautifully with the fried Thai chicken & rice. Food came out pretty fast & very fresh. No complaints whatsoever, it is a small little place though so beware that there is limited seating (but it’s usually not overly busy anyways & I have never had trouble finding a table for 1-2.) I Would highly recommend & I will be back. 9 or 9.5 out of 10. Only thing that could be improved would be the drink prices & possibly the soup they include with the combos but still not complaining as the food is reasonably priced, fresh, & tastes excellent! Can’t ask for much more than that 10/10 keep it up! It’s insane that more people don’t know about this place. It’s amazing. Way better than any chicken I’ve had at Pei Wei (although it is a different style)

Had an awesome meal here, we ordered the Kung Pao Chicken, the Bang Chicken, and of course the Mango Sticky Rice. Their bubble tea was on the money. One Thai lemon tea, and one strawberry lemonade with popping strawberry Boba. Amazing service and really good food.

If you're a fan of boba tea, this charming little spot is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the friendly employees make you feel right at home, offering a warm welcome and helpful suggestions if you're unsure of what to try. One of the standout drinks is the pink matcha tea. It's absolutely delicious—perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and the vibrant color adds a fun touch. The matcha flavor is rich, with a smooth and creamy texture that pairs perfectly with the chewy boba. You can tell that they really put thought and care into each drink. Overall, this spot is a must-visit for boba lovers. With friendly service, a diverse selection, and standout drinks like the pink matcha, it’s a perfect place to grab a refreshing treat. I didn’t get a chance to try any of the food since we specifically came to try the tea, but will definitely be back because the food looked and smelled amazing.

A MUST TRY! This small place packs a great punch. We had the combination Pad Thai, Combination fried Rice, Orange Chicken, gyoza, Thai Tea, Lychee Tea, and Butterfly Soda. Gyoza was great. Crispy, perfectly cooked in and out. Seasoned well, my son LOVED them. The Pad Thai was one of the best I've ever had. The noodles were cooked perfectly along with a well-balanced sauce, sweet, sour, and a little spicy! So good! Combination Fried Frice, my son had this one. He loved it, so much so that he almost finished it all before I got to try a bite. But, I got a bite so I could do a proper review. For fried rice fans, this one is 4.8/5, almost perfect. Orange Chicken was crispy and packed full of flavor but not too sweet, which is exactly how we like it. Perfectly cooked! All the drinks were perfectly made. Service was prompt, friendly, and super helpful. Only set back was the space to eat. There isn't much room, but it's perfect for Togo or for just a couple of people.
