Kinnaree Thai and Vegetarian

Well went to go eat lunch here with my boyfriend because his family orders from here a lot. It’s 1:25pm on a Saturday and they were closed when they said they are open on Saturdays at 11am.

Been here a few times. Food is always good, place is quiet and clean. Basil chicken, herbal salad, pad kee mao, panag, pineapple fried rice, pad thai, tom kha are a few favorite dishes.

Very fresh food. We had pot stickers, chicken fried rice, Tom Yum, egg drop soup, Mongolian beef and the free eggs rolls. Very fresh food, the vegetables were crisp. Tom Yum is ok, a little bland for me. I am used to spicy Hot & Sour soup. Everything else was very flavorful. Fast and friendly delivery.

This place is consistently awesome. Consistency is really the key to awesome. I don’t usually review more than once but I am so impressed so regularly I have to say it again.
Food is always hot and fresh. Tastes great. The duck rice was amazing last night.
They cut two corners off the delivery containers so steam can escape. All food is delivered hot and yummy but never soggy from steam in the container.
The delivery time is always excellent and faster than any other delivery restaurant in the area. Each and every delivery driver is polite and respectful.
I seriously love this place. Now I’ve gotten my kids hooked on it too so my orders are getting bigger. My kids never liked Thai food but now it’s a favorite for them too!
Thank you guys. Yesterday was moving day. We were all tired, cranky, and hungry. You brought an awesome dinner super fast and saved the day! :)

I’ve tried other Thai restaurants in Vegas after being a frequent regular of this place. I really want to venture off and see what other places offered than being stuck with one restaurant and rating it a five when it’s really a four. I mean, I still think that that’s a good thing, but they have quite a few competition!
I want to say that this restaurant is above average for a reason. Considering that they have a huge menu, I haven’t had an entrée that disappointed me. So, that being said, they can really keep up with the dishes that they say they know how to cook.
My favorite at this restaurant is their vast vegetarian menu. No fake meat– just well executed dishes that make you want to eat more vegetables for the f*** of it. What restaurant can make you do that? Kinnaree!
My favorite dish here is the vegetarian yellow curry. I can’t begin to tell you how delicious this dish is. The tofu isn’t just cut up and thrown in the curry. No, it’s stir fried to get a bit of a hint of crunch. Which I say is amazing because when you’re a vegetarian, I feel like the whole world wants to limit your taste buds to basic flavors and textures. Then you have the potatoes which is my favorite when it comes to your average yellow curry. But when you put spinach, brocolli and onion in the picture, the whole dish is locked with promised goodness. The base is light yellow with a hint of spice, but then you think about how it isn’t spicy at all. Instead, you’re tasting many over levels of spice that perfects it.
The other thing that I loved getting here was the vegetarian satay. I don’t know what it is about this appetizer, but it’s pretty damn delicious. I’ve had numerous satay before and all of them are chicken. Most of which are nothing compared to their vegetarian style. It’s chewy, and easy to bite apart from the skewer. It’s sweet and salty, and when you eat it with the peanut sauce and complimentary cucumber salad, I think you that this is just the PERFECT combination.
Their tom kha is a must a must get there too! I almost always got this dish because we regularly went over here during the winter and sipping this hot and sour coconut soup just hit the spot! There was something very homey about this dish that made me want to take it home and enjoy it in my cozy home. I also LOVE the mushroom that they used, as its texture and flavor complimented soup. This is a MUST TRY!
All the good raves but still give them a four? Because while I enjoyed some of their vegetarian dishes, the non-​vegetarian counterparts, where just a slight better than all the restaurants I’ve tried here in Vegas. There was nothing about them that made me say «WOW! I want to try this again!» Instead, when I order their chicken pad thai, it was a hit or miss. Maybe it’s the cook, but I’ve had other days when I’m thinking, «I hope it’s just like the other time I ordered». I just don’t like inconsistencies.
Overall, I’m a fan of this place, and I still continue to recommend people to eat here and try good food! It’s one of the good restaurants that I wish Vegas has more of!

Ordered on Unilocal!Wonderful feature with updates on the orders. The delivery was quick, the food tasted a lot better than it looked. Not that it looked bad, just saying it in case my pictures looked bad. The beef jerky didn’t look like the pictures another person posted on here but none the less it was great! All of it tasted wonderful!

If you consume a lot of vegetables versus meat, this is the perfect spot.
The food tasted great and very fresh. Each item and a lot of vegetables each cooked perfectly. I ordered my meal through Unilocal and it was seamless. From the point of ordering to the delivery was about 15 minutes. I ordered the pad woon sen, fresh spring rolls and the deep fried banana dessert. All of it was fresh and perfectly prepared.
$ 25 plus tip was enough to feed three adults with healthful food.

I love Thai food and this is my favorite Thai restaurant that I have discovered (more so that Prommares and Weera). You can order as spicy as you want (like all Thai restaurants), but I love how they have a full vegan menu! My favorite dishes include the «chicken» satay, the yellow curry with tofu (and no broccoli (I hate broccoli), the orange tofu and of course… the herbal salad! I actually got to the point with my friend that we kept ordering the herbal salad (because it was so dang good) until we got burned out :)
The restaurant is very clean and the server (Bee) is great and attentive. The prices are also reasonable and when I have ordered for pickup I’ve never had any issues. The one thing I do like is that they are never too busy for a table wait (most of their orders are delivery/​pickup it seems) so it’s never a long wait. I hate waiting to eat, and here it’s always efficient.
Also — if you can — order the sweet sticky rice and mango! It’s the best I’ve had, and the sticky rice is super tasty!
To the reviewer that said it was not «authentic Thai» based on your trips to Thailand, I gather you ate at the «safe» restaurants and not from the local vendors. I speak Thai, and grew up with a Thai mother — so I have a very good taste for Thai food — and I would say you probably ate at the «foreigner-​friendly» places which are not the true taste of Thailand. In addition to this, different parts of Thailand have different tastes to the food — much like that in the US. Also something to keep in mind. Le Thai is great (although I prefer Kinnaree) but it’s more of an American spin on Thai food.

Found this place via Unilocal.Love that they have a full separate vegan menu.
Satay was amazing!
Red curry was good– we had a 3 level spice & that was enough!!!
Kimaree noodles were good, a little oily
Thai iced tea was tasty, a little sweet
Wished they had a soft/​fresh tofu option– only had fried
Great place where vegans & omnis can co-​exist

Must go!!! Spicy basil chicken is what brings me back here for the third time! Delicious. The eggrolls are light and not too oily.
The food is consistently good and the service is polite and quick. I highly recommend this place!

Best delivery Asian food I’ve ever had!
Sweet and sour tofu was the best Vegetarian entrée I’ve had. Hands down. BBQ Pork fried rice and orange chicken were fantastic as well. GREAT HANGOVER CURE.

For two people for lunch this was a $ 40 ticket. The most I’ve ever paid for Thai was closer to half that. The Chicken Pad Thai was not great. Sort of flavorless. It’s right across from my office but I don’t think I’ll go here anymore.
Sorry.

Everything we have had from here was amazing! Loved the egg rolls, pad Thai & crab Rangoon’s! Not to mention the eGg rolls were FREE!!! Can’t wait to eat here again — ohh & try the herbal salad!
The dressing is like nothing you’ve ever tasted! It’s so very refreshing YUM!!!

I like going to Kinnaree Thai because they have a lot of choices. They also have a separate menu for vegetarians. I’m not a vegetarian but I do prefer some of my dishes without any meat like my Tom Kha soup and spring rolls.
The egg rolls come with 4 pieces which is enough for me because my husband doesn’t usually want any. He waits for the spring rolls which he prefers. I love the veggie Tom Kah soup especially when my throat is scratchy. It does the trick every time! When I go for Chinese or Thai I get the craving for both noodles and a rice dish. It can get pricey that is why I just ordered the drunken noodles with a side of white rice instead of fried. The prices at Kinnaree I find a bit lower than other Thai restaurants in the area. What keeps me coming back is the price, selection and good food. It’s a little out of my way but I think it is worth it!

Update
Went here and gotten the lunch special. Got the pad Thai, it came with a side of salad and an egg roll. The salad got too much dressing. The pad Thai is tasty but they are really skimpy on the meat (beef). Also they forgot to ask me how spicy it is, so when I asked them to make it spicy afterward, the server said that its too late cuz it’s already done, ok… HOWEVER, I didn’t even get the food till 10 mins later, so obviously they are either still cooking it or it’s just sitting on the counter, so why can’t they just put some red pepper in the wok while I am just sitting there waiting. (The server was just standing around, so she wasn’t serving nor was she too busy to give me my food and no, she didn’t go in the kitchen after I asked). And why can’t they make it over if it’s not to a patron’s satisfaction.
Probably won’t come back to this place.

Two words: Herbal salad! That stuff is delicious, D-​E-​L-​I-​C-​I-​O-​U-​S!
Not even kidding, I’ve never ordered anything else here. The fact that my gym is right down the street may be a factor but this is honestly one of the tastiest salads out there, made with a mix of apple, coconut, lemongrass, basil, lime, and cashews, plus crispy tofu. All the ingredients have great texture, and harmonize nicely. Order a level 2 or 3 (1 – 10 scale) for a bit of punch in the house dressing that doesn’t overpower the delicate balance of flavors.
Service is polite and fast, restaurant is clean, lunch specials available til 3PM, and the menu has an entire page of vegetarian and vegan-​friendly dining options.

The fiancé and I came here for a quick lunch in between my dental appointments close by.
They were doing lunch specials so we decided to go with those. It came with a eggroll which was standard and fine and a good cup of tom yum broth with some mushrooms.
I chose chicken basil which came with white meat and had a pleasant sauce. The BF got a panang curry which I thought was decent from the bites I got of it, but it’s just not my preferred style of how it’s seasoned.
The girl serving us was friendly and attentive to boot.
The plus is this place can cater to all types of diets. We were asked if we eat meat or not and their vegetarian and vegan offerings were pretty solid. I’ll probably be back to try more dishes during dinner as some offerings like the herbal salad look worth a return.
A-​OK rating for now as it was fine food, but JUUSST fine.

What a great addition to the slowly-​improving Thai scene in Las Vegas! Tucked into a small strip mall, Kinnaree features excellent quality of product, fresh veggies, a large selection of vegetarian options and super friendly service.
The brother-​and-​sister team that own and operate this restaurant cannot be nicer. Attentive and speedy, they make sure you have an enjoyable experience. The space itself is a decent size with about 20 tables and counter seating. I was very impressed with how clean it was, from the tables to the floors to the bathrooms.
They have great lunch specials that are plentiful and affordable (entrees come with egg rolls and soup).
Veggie lovers rejoice! …as Kinnaree offers many tofu options (fried or fresh bean curd) and even soy meat substitutes (fake chicken, duck or fish). As a former vegetarian, I truly appreciate these meatless options, plus the dishes maintain their integrity of flavor and aroma.

Set back in an insignificant strip mall, comes a most delightful wonder of flavors.
Perhaps a misnomer, but Thai and Vegetarian is more than vegetarian, it’s Thai with vegetarian in mind. They graciously make available strictly meat and strictly vegetarian menus with all the usual fare.
What makes this establishment so splendid is that its very freshly prepared. I got an order of egg rolls (courtesy of a Unilocal check-​in), and the Red Panang curry with tofu. Both were excellent. The curry, in particular, left an amazing taste minutes later.
Simplistic in presentation, it’s all about the food.
The service is ultra sweet, too. While in no way is it a 5.0 star, it’s a strong 4. It certainly beats a kick in the pants.

Ummmm what do I say about my visit today??? Best Thai ever? They invented food? Oh my, I think I went too far…
I’m going to dream about the food. Not in a normal way, a naughty way. A thick rich… just see my pics…
Oh and before you read the veg porn below the customer service was AWESOME. Prompt, polite, and really caring to our needs. After we ordered everything she actually said «everything vegan right?» uh yes and I love you…
APP: We started off with veggie potstickers (v), they were perfect! If you don’t like a warm pocket of ground up veggie goodness rolling around all in your mouth… don’t order these. The sauce was also yummy.
I asked for «spicy stuff» and she brought me a three turner of: a red chili sauce, jalapeños, and hot ground pepper flake.
MAIN: I had yellow (v) curry and brown rice. I’m going to dream about taking a bath in yellow curry. Not just any yellow curry. This yellow curry… thick, rich, flavorful with a little kick of spice… yellow curry. Calgon… I mean curry… take me away…
Give me your sexy soft potatoes in my mouth, give me your crisp flavorful veggies all day long. YES! Add a size to my pants you think rich curry… oh.
Seriously this curry was full strength if you know what I mean…
MAIN: We ordered Lo Mein (v) or Chow Mein (who knows) with duck (v) and we were told we could have all those veggies but they were out of that type of noodles. No worries, we picked our fav big flat Chow Fun noodles and ate it right up… soooooo good. Not sure how they made that duck or where they bought it from… but it’s the best faux faux I have ever eaten and I don’t even like that bs.
MAIN: Crispy as crispy orange chickn’…I mean crispy orange tofu :) (v) that stuff was like they made fresh simmered orange sauce and reduced it into a sticky-​icky sweet goodness. Oh wait they did. Dang. They even put fresh oranges all over the top of the dish. Real oranges.
Hubby and I could hardly finish our meal and so no room for dessert.
Ok, yea you get it, so this place is my new addiction. If you want to be addicted… hit me up. I’ll meet you there and get your started. I’m really pleased it’s on my side of town.
Mine all mine.
