This is my favorite spot to get Thai curry in Greenville. My usual is the dumplings and Massaman curry with chicken and veggies. Absolutely delicious! Bestie and I love to meet up for dinner here. It's usually crowded in the evenings and for good reason. There is extra parking behind the building. It's always clean and the staff give great customer service. The food comes out relatively quickly, even on busy nights. It has a casual dining vibe. The portions are large, but the curry reheats nicely the next day. I've been coming here for years and highly recommend it. read more

Warm ambiance, nice decor, excellent service. The food was tasty, flavorful, and fresh. I tried the Pad See Ew. Came with egg & broccoli and protein of my choice. I got shrimp & chicken. Nice size shrimp. You choose between 1-10 for spice level. My friends got Pad See Mow with scallops & the Noodle soup with vegetables. Good portions. Tables have spices on them. The waiter kept our glasses filled and was warm & kind. Will be back. read more

I've been trying to find authentic Thai food since moving to Greenville and Kannika's has been the best so far. I always order the Pad Se Ewe to first test the authenticity before deciding on a return trip. The spice level was spot on, great ratio of vegetables to noodles and where other nearby Thai restaurants have a syrup or overly sweet sauce, Kannikas had all the flavor you'd expect with fresh authentic spice. It's a small establishment with fast and friendly wait staff. Parking lot is very small for the amount of diners but the food is worth finding alternate parking and there was another lot in the back of the building. read more

My favorite Thai restaurant, Bangkok Thai, closed a few years ago leaving me searching for a replacement. Kannika's Thai Kitchen is a good replacement, but doesn't compare to the premier Thai food at Bangkok. I've eaten at Kannika's twice over the past year and cannot complain about their food or service. Maybe one day I'll get over missing Bangkok and give Kannika's 5 stars. read more

Food is cooked fresh. Service takes time because the food is fresh. Our server was friendly and ambiance is casual and nice. Feels like home. read more

Kannika's Thai Kitchen - Pad kee mao! - Thai Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Excellent chicken pad Thai with a broad scope of spice levels. The Thai dumplings I was not a fan of, they were almost like large meatballs wrapped in noodles. I was expecting either a smaller piece of meat or it mixed with vegetables. This restaurant offers dine in or carry out. There also is a small bar area in the back of the restaurant. Please be aware there is a 10% charge on carry outs for servers. I ordered carry out and was told there would be a 25 minute wait and I waited over 40 minutes to get my food. This also happened on a Friday night, so plan accordingly during peak times. Aside from the wait, the chicken pad Thai was fantastic so I definitely will be back. read more

This place came highly recommended. They were right. I recommend you bring a friend or two. Order the red snapper. DELICIOUS!!! The Pad Thai was very good. We split the meal and everything was good. The papaya salad was quite spicy but we insisted on eating it. Though we were busting at the seems, we ordered the mango sticky rice. Oh soo good. Friendly staff made ordering easy. The place is quite simple in its decor but you don't eat the decorations. Enjoy read more

We stopped in around 1 PM on a weekday. The lunch menu had a good bit of variety and we had an option of ordering the degree of spice or heat in the dishes from one to ten. We started with the Crab Rangoon which were delicious, crispy with lots of creamy crab flavor. My wife had a beef stir fry and I had a chicken Pad Thai; both spice level 2. Both were very good and flavorful with a hint of spicy heat. I would increase the spice a bit in the future as I think it would enhance the dishes even more. The service was good and prompt although I had to remind the server of an order of tea. Overall, a good experience and very good food. We'll go back. read more

Kannika has become our fail safe Thai option. We have our favorites, one of us a stickler for what he likes and the other always trying out new things. Food quality is consistent, service efficient and ambiance such that you can have a conversation and hear yourself talking. This time around, we missed the garnish of finely cut salad and orange slices. I hope they are not gone for good. We enjoyed the crunch just so read more

Ordered the fried tofu pad Thai to go for lunch. It was a huge portion. Currently writing this after downing the whole thing and I gotta say it was 10/10. Will be coming back. read more

Good food, decent service (nothing special), decent ambiance (nothing special). We loved the Pad Kee Mao, Yellow Curry, and Massuman Curry. We've had Pad Thai better elsewhere. Overall, great dinner!! Note to management--offer better napkins--the ones that don't wad up into a teeny-tiny ball. read more

Absolutely great food. Very authentic and good service. Good for take out and lunch options too. Highly recommend.

Food and service were ok, not amazing but not bad either. Prices were reasonable given their portions were large.

By far the best pad Thai we've found in South Carolina. Restaurant clean and nice. Will definitely make it a regular.

Food was fantastic and very freshly made. Lots of selections and gluten free options which are hard to find. A lovely ambience and family owned restaurant! Service was fast and they were very attentive! Pricing was very reasonable and it's now our new Thai favorite!! read more

Wow, what a treat... Greenville, SC seriously has the best restaurants in the South. Thought we were spoiled living in Charleston but we never seem to fail with restaurants here in the upstate. This place "Kannikka's Thai Kitchen" came highly recommended to us. All I'll say is we both left the restaurant with a circus in our mouths. The food, flavours, service and experience just incredible. Another 3 Thumbs Up and 5 Stars from us. read more

It was not as good as I expected. We ordered the satay chicken for the appetizer, then for the entrees we got the shrimp pad thai, and fried rice with chicken. I had high hopes but the chicken satay didn't taste fresh and was dry. The pad thai had too much strong flavors compared to the ones I've tasted, and the fried rice with chicken was bland. read more

My favorite Thai food in Greenville. Bring your own booze service is excellent. Ma & Pa homemade yummmm. I highly recommend.

Excellent food and service, price point is perfect. This place is great for a date night

I love this place!!! The food is always so good. We visited Thailand last year and this always makes us feel like we're back there! 5 stars!

Our 1st time to visit the place and we are greeted with a warm welcome. Very kind staff and overall, very good service. I love the interior design featuring lots of Thai decorations. I have Stayed in Thailand for 2 yrs, so I would say that their food taste is not far from original. A combinations of amazing services, good ambiance and reasonable price, we will definitely come again to enjoy their foods !! read more

So this is my first ...but not last...long overdue trip to this restaurant.. They are very Covid 19 conscious!. No alcohol on the menu BUT...You can bring your own beer or wine.. every day! No corkage fee! So we started with spring rolls home made and delicious...not overly crispy. I ordered a small bowl of soup---.Tom Jood.. all veggies with a clear broth and white pepper...great for a cool evening or snowy nite. Very hot and spicy ..i suggest to .go down a level on the heat level/spice level. It will warm you! For my main course...I ordered..the panang Curry wiith veggies only... jasmine rice was great..panang was delicious less hot than the soup. My daughter ordered the garlic stir fry Chicken It was gently spicy..with an explosion of flavors. Plenty of veggies and appropriate sizded chicken pieces. She is picky and when gives it the thumbs up...it's tasty and fresh. We will definitely be back and we will bring some beer or wine. read more

Went for lunch with a friend. Servers were prompt, friendly, and attentive. Background noise was a bit too much for quiet conversation, but not overwhelming. Both our dishes were very flavorful, with the only issue being the level of hotness. I ordered my red curry mild, but it was still a bit too much for my taste. My friend ordered hers medium. She had to give up about halfway through and get a take-home container. Please know the food was very good, and we will go back again. We will just order a lower level of heat next time. read more

We arrive at 6pm and quickly placed our order. Nothing fancy or elaborate, just Pad Thai and Tom Kha soup. 40 minutes later we had not received the soup or the pad Thai, so we asked our server if they could package it up to take with us and we were informed they had not even started to prepare it. There is clearly a warning on the menu that it takes time as everything is freshly prepared, but we witnessed multiple tables that arrived after us receiving their meals long before we decided to leave. The food smelled great, so that is worth a 2 star, but service was terrible. read more

Food was flavorful , really good. But, they didn't pay attention to HEAT SPECIFICS...when ordering, be PRECISE!! ( got take out), and yes, I'd go back XOXOX read more

I am a long-time fan of Kannika's kitchen. when we walked in, we were greeted and seated by a great server. she did a wonderful job checking in on us and was helpful with the menu. this time, I decided to order the pad thai instead of my typical red curry....delicious!. For my proteins, I had seafood and meat. the portions are enough for your lunch the next day. the entire meal was made with fresh ingredients. we came in on a Thursday night, and the place was packed. highly recommend this resteraunt if you're a thai food lover. read more

Kannika's Thai Kitchen - pad thai with fried egg - Thai Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Kannika's Thai Kitchen is located in a small strip center on the south end of Haywood Rd. If you have not visited previously, you might want to key the address in on your GPS. Kannika's is unassuming from the outside street view. The restaurant opens up nicely inside to warm colored walls, booths on both sides and hard top tables in the center. The bar is located near the rear. Dining at the bar is always an option, it appears. The parking can be touchy at busy times. We were lucky enough to see two empty parking spots upon arrival. We also took the last four top table available on New Year's Eve. It's hard to rate service during abnormally busy times like the night we visited. But, for this first experience, service was fair. Our server was challenged to understand English. However, together, we managed to communicate. The menu is diverse and extensive. We had the curry chicken, basil chicken, basil shrimp, and the spring rolls. The entrees were accompanied by white rice. We requested hot or spicy for each dish. The dishes were tasty and the spice kept us looking for the server with the water pitcher. I will try the mild versions on my next visit. Overall, a nice restaurant. The food came out hot and filled the need. The service was spotty, but manageable. I look forward to visiting Kannika's again in the near future. read more

The dishes are very tasty. I had the Siam Fried Rice without the spice. It was preparedly well. Also, I ordered the small Tom Kha soup it goes good with the fried rice to switch up the flavors. Overall, the servings of the dishes are large enough for two people. read more

Kannika's Thai Kitchen - Front - Thai Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

A simple dinner for wife and me after a busy day in town. Perfect restaurant, without pretense, but with great Thai food and very nice wait staff. We at first thought it was closed, but discovered that it was open and you can actually sit indoors for table service. Very small interior. Bar on one side, booths on other side with tables in between. What a break from the Covid carry-out culture. We each had curry: I had the Panang, 6/10 heat scale, my favorite, wife had Mussaman, 5/10 on heat. Both were excellent and we appreciated the wider flexibility on spice/heat. The 10 point scale is better than the 3 or 5 point versions. Service was fine. Parking out front. Use your GPS to get there. read more

Awful Thai food! Awful service! Worst Thai experience I've had, and I've eaten Thai all over the world.

My partner and I had the most uncomfortable experience at this dining establishment. The manager Josh was our sever Sunday around noon. We ordered Duck Wings and Crab Rangoon and instead were brought Dumplings and the Crab Rangoon. When I pointed this out to Josh, he said he could bring me Duck Wings as well. I told him I wanted the Wings instead and not in addition. He informed me that would have to charge me 50% of the dumplings. I told him that I understood how the confusion could be made but that I would not be paying for something I did not want or order. He then was passive aggressive with us and told us that he had repeated the order and that we need to listen better. I'm not sure what business plans to be successful when their management is telling paying customers to listen better when their order is being taken. My partner asked Josh if he was the owner and he replied that Yes he was the manager. She then informed Josh that he was making us extremely uncomfortable, that he made himself and the business look bad and that we would not be back. He proceeded to then bring us our bill, definitely we understood we were dismissed. I would not allow anyone to speak to me or treat me this way and even less so when I'm paying for an experience. I could not recommend not supporting this business more. read more

Absolutely fucking delicious fried rice. Their thai fried rice and their spicy fried rices are really good. Their tom yum can also be made vegan, and it's hhhnnggg read more

Great food, but they do have a to go charge. Personally I like the pad Se Ew and pad Thai, but haven't had anything I haven't liked.

I ordered the Thai dumplings as an appetizer. They were tasty little bags of joy! These Thai pork dumplings came out steamy and they were a great way to start our meal. I recommend you get these as well, especially if you like garlic The pad see ew was incredibly tasty and it packed a lil heat at level 6. I love spice, so I found that level 6 was a good level of spicy as well as flavor without crying. The tofu was chewy and fresh, and the noodles were so delicious. They were a little chewy and held on to the sauce very well, I can't wait to come back. read more

Their customer service is awful and very disappointing. we came there we told them we have a party of 7 then they seated us after 20 minutes they told us to leave because they had a reservation so they kicked us out, and lied telling us we told them we had a reservation when we never did. Plus it was my birthday. read more

This was our first visit Kannika's. Definitely a worthwhile stop if you are looking for Thai cuisine. The portion size was the most impressive part of the meal, and the flavors were right in line behind the serving size. The Tom Kha was my favorite selection for the meal. They served it piping hot. Soup can often be disappointing with it being lukewarm, but not here. We would definitely return to continue trying additional menu items. read more
