This spot definitely surprised me cause I've driven by it and never gone in. The food was amazing! Definitely good Thai food and will be back again for more. Will have to try spice level 3 to see how that goes! Also wish they had dessert options!

I can't speak to the ambiance but I've passed by a few times before and it looks like a cute place. I think it just ended up being a bit cold but that's to be expected during lunch time delivery.

I do appreciate how the pad Thai wasn't super oily and greasy. It doesn't feel unhealthy chowing it down.

Everything is just so fresh and delicious, service is always kind and knowledgeable, and the interior and patio are both beautiful seating options. Definitely a go-to spot for me and I have recommended it to many people.

I noticed several people didn't have reservations, but those with reservations were seated first. My tip: if you don't have a reservation, get there right when they open. The restaurant itself is stunning--beautiful atmosphere, charming garden setting, and the perfect place for a special night out. Our server was fantastic, attentive, and recommended a wine that paired perfectly with our meal. The food was incredible from start to finish. The Khao Yum (17-ingredient mixed salad) was hands down my favorite and something I'll definitely order again. For our entrées, we had the pumpkin curry and beef tenderloin--both were flavorful, perfectly cooked, and absolutely delicious. To finish, we shared the coconut milk ice cream with jackfruit and the mango sticky rice. The perfect ending to an amazing meal! Overall, the food, service, and ambiance exceeded our expectations. It's easy to see why it's so hard to get a reservation. Definitely worth the wait, and we'll absolutely be back. Highly recommend for a date night, celebration, or anyone looking for a memorable dining experience!

This was our last stop on a little weekend getaway and it's the truth when they say to leave the…read morebest for last. We had a horrible culinary experience the past couple of days driving through West Virginia, Ohio, and western New York. Pittsburgh was our last stop before heading home and Kiin Lao and Thai Eatery made up for all of the culinary disappointment this weekend. Let's talk about the ambiance first. Everything about this restaurant was quite beautiful. When I say beautiful, I don't mean it in an elegant way, but an artsy street vibe way. It is hip, clean, and we'll put together. You can tell a lot of love went into the decorations and into every piece of art on its walls. The service was pretty good. The server herself was attentive when needed and left us alone when needed. The food was AWESOME. We got the papaya combo with the Thum Mak Houng option, curry puffs, grilled pork shoulder with sticky rice, and Pad Gra Prow Street Style. The papaya was "lao-style" made with fermented shrimp paste. If you love deep umami flavors, this is it for you. The papaya salad was pungent and sour and savory spicy and just so satisfying. We asked for a 6/10 spiciness and they came with the heat. The chicken skewers that came with it was flavorful too. A little bit of char on the chicken would've brought it over the top. The curry puffs were so comforting and had that south Asian flavor profile that was very welcomed. The curry and spice blend did not overwhelm the potatoes. Instead it enhanced the earthy potato flavors in the best way possible. The menu said that it came with a cucumber sauce but I don't think we got that. What we got was a more like a honey sauce. The sauce was good in itself but didn't pair well with the puffs. The grilled pork shoulder was delectable. The meat was tender and it was seasoned perfectly. Again, more char on the meat would've brought it to a new level. The only gripe I have with this order was the sticky rice. The amount of sticky rice you get with it was so small I thought it was a joke initially. Nope, it was not! I thought the Pad Gra Prow Street Style was OKAY. I would've made it a little saucier. Despite this, my significant other absolutely LOVED it. Pad Gra Prow was my significant other's favorite dish when she lived overseas. She said that this was the best Pad Gra Prow she has had on this side of the world. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. We would definitely come by again when we are back this way.

Overall, the food and service was good. We had red curry, massaman curry, and pad kee mao. I think the red curry was pretty good. We order spice level 7 and probably could have gotten the 8. I'd go for 8 if I ever visit them again. Yeah, it was just a good and decent meal with good service and all. Not very crowded, so I urge people to go if you are in the area.

The curry was especially good-rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The restaurant is a cute, hole-in-the-wall Thai spot that might be easy to miss, but it's definitely worth a visit. The prices were very reasonable-our lunch was actually cheaper than eating at the cafeteria at UPMC Children's, and the food tasted significantly better. If you're looking for tasty Thai food, friendly service, and a great value, this place is well worth checking out. We'll definitely be back!

The spicy level was a little lower than we expected compared to other places, but that could have just been the cook we had that day. We got lucky with parking, but there's a lot nearby, so it's not really an issue if you don't find parking on the street easily. Service was decent, tho nothing special. I like what they did with the decor. Has someone not mentioned what restaurant it has been before, I wouldn't have even realized it. They did a great job remodeling and have some beautiful artwork on the walls. I love the way the booths are separated from each other, too. It's not very close to us, but if my folks (who love much closer to it) want to go there again, we would.
