    Front entrance

    Excellent thai at affordable prices located just outside, in the suburbs of Kansas City, MO Reservations not needed.....and we were warmly greeted by the hostess and seated promptly. Our entrees (chicken pad thai and shrimp w/vegetables) were bountiful as well as extremely flavorable and we will revisit if/when in area. Also, our server was very attentive to our needs. Be aware that although cozy, the place is a little noisy so dont expect an intimate environment.

    Was looking for food other than bbq while visiting Kansas. Went on Yelp to find Lana Thai. It was a Friday night and it was somewhat busy, however we were seated immediately. Served water and given time to look over menu. We ended up ordering chicken pad Thai and shrimp with vegetables. Pad Thai was very tasty and the chicken was delicious. The shrimp meal was amazing the sauce and veggies were so favorable and it was cooked perfectly. The Resturant is a little data however very clean. The air conditioner was not working but they had fans blowing. Service was amazing! If you're in the area and looking for Thai this is your place.

    Great food and cozy little spot! I had a beef noodle dish that was delicious! My group split the Lanna Sampler appetizer and it was great as well. Service was fast and friendly!

    Edamame
    Emma G.

    Wow! This place is a total joke in the wall and it didn't disappoint. The ambiance inside was a bit odd at first, not many people around and booths a bit close together, but it was clean and well decorated. The service was prompt and attentive with fresh water and barely any wait on our appetizer and meals. The edamame was fairly simple but still delicious. The green curry was AMAZING with a fresh, spicy taste. I got medium and it had the perfect kick. The red curry was so flavorful too and all of the veggies were super fresh. Great portions as well, will definitely be back.

    Seafood Pad Thai
    Samuel H.

    Hands down, one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the KC/OP area! The food is always fresh, packed with flavor, and never disappoints. While the restaurant itself is small and not particularly fancy, the quality of the food more than makes up for it. Plus, the service is quick, so we never have to wait long for our meals. I highly recommend the Drunken Noodles (Pad Kee Mao), Chicken Khao Soi, and Red Curry--these are my absolute favorites. But honestly, everything on the menu is fantastic. For small bites, the Yum Woon Sen, Seafood Salad, and Papaya Salad are all excellent choices.

    Pad See Eaw
    Margaret R.

    Loved this place! The staff was very friendly and helpful with finding items that can be made gluten free. My friend said her Pad See Eaw and crab Rangoon's were delicious as well. My pineapple fried rice made gluten free was also very tasty. Would order again!

    Good Pad Thai is worth the visit!

    Outstanding small Thai restaurant up at the Lenexa/Shawnee line serving up big flavor and fresh food! Whether you are staying in or getting your order to go, the food is made to your liking and everything I've had has been just right. I love Thai food and I almost always judge a spot's Pad Thai first. I figure that if the Pad Thai is a good, then most everything has a shot at greatness. Lanna's Pad Thai is right on target, blending all the right profiles with noodles and protein. We have ordered the Crab Rangoon, crispy wontons with a sweet heat sauce, the spring rolls, and more. Each dish is executed very well and is brimming with flavor. The spice level varies a bit, and medium, for me, usually is enough heat. Lanna Thai spices their food well, not overpowering (unless that's your thing), and the spice complements the dishes instead of dominating them. The Drunken Noodles are another hit, fresh & crispy veggies with the glass noodles in a savory & spicy sauce. Lanna is easy to find and the dining area is small but very well-appointed. Great service, LOTS of to-go activity, and pricing is very fair. The value probably outpaces the price as the food is really good and the flavors will have you back again.

    There are many Thai Restaurants in the area and we landed on Lanna Thai after reading the reviews and so happy we did. We will definitely come back next time we are in the area!

    I love their pad sen mee, the tiny noodles are so satisfying! Great flavor too with all the peppers and sauce. Always had fine service here and the inside is very cute and bright, with nice decorations for the holidays. I have gotten takeout here several times as well and never had an issue with the order. It is packaged nicely and still warm when I get it. I would be careful not to let it tilt though, because there is a lot of good sauce that could tip out.

    Lanna Wings
    Jolanta L.

    The Lanna Chicken Wing tasted awesome! All the dishes are well cooked and freshly prepared! Great customer service as well.

    Chicken Khao Soi
    Netanya B.

    Food was delicious! I loved the Khao Soi and Pad Gaprow. Fried egg was perfect and khao soi was full of flavor. Service was quick. It had a very calm environment and nicely decorated. The servers were quick. I would return.

    Always love coming here for Thai food !

    Parking is easy. Service is good too ! Love their green curry ! This this restaurant doesn't give me a regular Asian restaurant vibe. It feels really clean, simple, and elegant. Give it a try today !

    Tucked away in a small corner of Lenexa, Monkey King Chinese BBQ & Noodle Restaurant feels like one…read moreof the most authentic Chinese spots in the Kansas City metro area. Their menu consists of a lot of dishes, and some are quite unique .. you don't usually see items like bird's nest dishes at most Chinese restaurants around here except for maybe Bolings. Me and my husband visited on a Saturday night around 8 pm and really devoured our meal. The menu can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but you honestly can't go wrong with stir fries at any Chinese restaurant. For appetizers, we ordered chicken egg rolls, which were hefty and filling. For the main course, I ordered the chicken in black bean stir fry, and my husband got the shrimp Kung Pao chicken stir fry. We paired both with steamed rice. The black bean chicken was rich and earthy, with that deep, slightly funky flavor from the fermented black beans. It was very umami, salty and complimented nicely with the fresh, crisp vegetables and well-cooked chicken. I really liked it. The shrimp Kung Pao was spicy and tangy, with perfectly cooked shrimp (the fried shrimp covering was chefs kiss) and crispy veggies. Overall, we really enjoyed the food. The egg rolls were about $4 for two pieces, and the stir fries were around $17+ each. The portions are quite large compared to other places in the area, so the pricing seemed reasonable. For 2 main course dishes your bill could easily reach up to $40. Otherwise, The restaurant was clean, the staff was kind, and service was quick. It also wasn't too crowded when we visited. I would rate the service 4/5, mainly because we had to ask for silverware, condiments, and tissues separately. The food, though, is definitely a 5/5. Highly recommended! I will definitely return to have more dishes like beef chow fun, the soups and last, but not least BIRDS NEST!!

The standout dish was definitely the bird's nest--it had the best flavor overall. The duck was a bit too fatty, and the calamari was heavily battered and greasy.

I usually come here for dim sum, and it is upsetting for me to say that my husband and I should've chose somewhere else to eat for dinner. For dinner, we ordered fried rice and chow fun. Those two main entrées were okay. You can't really mess up those two fillers at an Asian restaurant. We ordered scallion pancakes- they came out soggy and soft. Not even crispy like how they usually are. The flavor wasn't there either. If I wanted microwaved scallion pancakes, then I would've bought them from the store and made them myself. My husband ordered the short ribs- they were bland and tough like rubber. It had a funky taste to it that he couldn't describe and he had to force himself to swallow it because he didn't want food to go to waste. I ordered the chicken feet- this is one of dim sum's signature dishes and I am so upset I didn't even get to enjoy one of the dishes I always order. It was dry and the flavor wasn't there. The service was fantastic. They checked in on us and made sure our water was filled. The timing of the food coming in and out was fine. The ambiance was inviting. There was a sense of urgency and I appreciated that.
