    I cannot say enough about this place. I've been driving by this location for years and telling myself that I would stop in today I finally did. I took the recommendation of our server on dish and chose a nice spicy curry and was not disappointed. While it was not as spicy as I would have hoped, he told me how to order it hotter the next time. The flavor combinations and the depth of flavor was so amazing. Are crab Rangoon has outdone every other crab Rangoon I've ever had. At this point, I could name other places where I thought their crab Rangoon was amazing... And at this point they no longer even hold a candle. A nice hearty crab chunks mixed in with the cream cheese sauce and filling, and it's just to die for. The dessert of the sticky rice with mango was sweet and thick and filling and just rich beyond description. The lighting is soft and easy in the eyes, the colors on the walls are pleasant and pink and oranges and brown purples, sounds a pleasant to listen to everybody cooking in the music, while faster and hip-hop was not distracting. I quite enjoyed listening to it, listening to Thailand versions of American hits. It was quite an enjoyable experience all around. We look forward to coming back.

    The food was not what I expected. I read the reviews and had seen TikTok's raving over the food but it was far below our expectations. The food lacked flavor, the gyozas were still frozen inside. I ordered a phad Thai level 3 spice and I only tasted a sweet flavor. The service was great I would compliment them on that, but I will never return.

    Obsessed! So happy to have such a strong Thai option not too far from my parents home. We went on a Saturday right at 5:20pm and the place was half full. By 6pm, every table was sat. Service was quick and the food didn't take too long. We tried two appetizers and two entrees in addition to a Thai iced tea. Can't wait to go back and try more. This place is good for families or a date night because the cute twinkling lights.

    My friend who lives in the area says that there is usually never a wait here, but, our oversight--we forgot it was Valentine's Day so they didn't take walk-ins for a while due to many tables being reserved. We opted to take out instead but the online order told us it would be ready in 85 minutes... I wish we were given an estimated time prior to ordering, but I believe if we asked earlier it probably would have been ready. Either way, our food was delicious! We ordered pad thai with tofu and green curry with tofu. I would definitely visit again not on a holiday haha. The staff was incredibly nice!

    Maybe one of the best or the best Thai restaurants in Greater Cleveland? My friend and I split an order of chicken pad Thai and chicken Massaman curry for lunch. Both dishes were utterly delicious. We ordered the dishes with a spice level of 2, which provided just a bit of a kick. The pad Thai and curry were both a perfect mix of salty, sweet, sour, and creamy. I was pleasantly surprised with the creaminess of the pad Thai. I'm used to pad Thai being drier at other places, but Raan Thai's noodles had a delectable sticky thickness to the sauce. The chicken in both dishes was tender. The lunch portion sizes were sizeable. I just wish the curry came with a bit more steamed rice. I wanted more rice to soak up that creamy, flavorful curry! The service was also great. Our server was friendly and made sure to keep our glasses of water filled. Note about paying with a card - it does come with a 3% fee. Cash is preferred.

    So good!! Loved their chicken pad thai and shrimp pad thai! Restaurant feels elevated, the waiters were very nice, and the service was quick. Would definitely come back if we were in Cleveland again.

    This was my first time coming here AND 2nd time trying Thai food and it was the best experience ever!!! The workers here are incredibly sweet and helped us so much with what to pick and drink!! Nestled in a corner on a busy street, Raan Thai can be easy too miss... but you'll regret it!! We started with a fresh salad - the Papaya salad, it actually had some spice in it but still super refreshing!!!! For dinner we tried the Panang Curry - which was a coconut curry flavor.... SOOOO GOOD if you want some spice in your dinner, it was almost similar to Indian food. The second dish we tried was Chicken Rama - this was stir fried chicken in their Thai peanut sauce, and let me tell you I was a little scared to try to peanut sauce, but it was very mild and very delicious!! I couldn't even pick a favorite dish, both flavors were awesome! And while we were eating I noticed people drinking some fun drinks - boba tea!!!!!!!!! Finally I had to chance to try it - I had no idea what to try so I asked the server give me her favorite - she was nervous but ended up doing it and I got a honeydew tea with strawberry boba..... IT WAS SO GOOD!!!! And it was so big, I got to take some home and finish it!! I really enjoyed my dinner here and it's always nice supporting local businesses, especially when they are so sweet! I 100% will be back! I can't wait to try more dishes!!

    Raan is one of the better Thai spots in the Cleveland area. While nothing about the decor, service, or food stood out as spectacular, every item we ordered was of good quality and freshness. It's a place that you can't go wrong with and will reliably provide a satisfactory meal.

I was working at a coffee shop nearby, 10 mins away, with a friend and we both decided to walk over to Hako to grab lunch. FOOD -- Hako has lots to choose from, including sushi, rice dishes, dumplings, etc. I ordered the Dumpling Bowl ($13.95) for lunch which was delicious and fresh. The Dumpling Bowl includes sushi rice, furikake top fried chicken dumplings, and cucumbers. It is topped with spicy mayo & eel sauce. The chicken dumplings were thick, crunchy on the ends, and slightly creamy with the spicy mayo on top. The addition of the sushi rice gave for a filling lunch. The dish wasn't too salty especially with the cucumbers on the side which added a cooling effect. I will definitely order the dumpling bowl again and the price ($13.95) is a lunch special, I believe. AMBIANCE -- Simple design inside with tables and chairs. Calm atmosphere. Clean. SERVICE -- Quick and efficient customer service. The lady at the checkout counter was very friendly. We spoke about her being from South Korea. I will definitely love to come back to Hako to dine-in for dinner. Although I don't eat sushi, if you are a sushi lover, this restaurant is for you. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 44/250 total reviews in 2026 - 885 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 23 April 2026

Also ordered the potato and cheese "corn dog" which was a fried block of cheese with frozen diced potatoes on the outside. It was hot and greasy but ok, but my stomach will not be happy later as it was H-E-A-V-Y..... And finally something called a Tiger Sugar Dirty Latte which was an iced coffee with a TON of brown sugar and boba in it....super sweet. I couldn't finish it. I can't imagine people going here in a regular basis, but as a treat to get the mochinut I couldn't finish see folks going every once in a while! Other things to note, the service was a slow, but the corn dogs are made to order and was fresh and there was 1 employee, so that's why. And the music was super loud and not "my speed" as I am a little older (in my 50's) and not really keen on rap music with questionable lyrics blaring in my ears! LOL.

Only one staff member :( The woman working answered all our questions and gave recommendations when we asked. I got the cinnamon mochinut. It was SO good! I loved it. I got the cheese and potato "dog" which didn't have a hot dog in it at all, which I was grateful for a no hot dog option. What's better than fried cheese and potatoes ?! It was HUGE! And tasty. Not something I'd ever get again though (I'm a healthy eater and as you can imagine, this was very heavy!) But was a fun, carnival type experience. I got an iced boba coffee which was good but nothing to write home about. The service was really slow, but there was only one staff member doing everything by herself. I just felt bad for her. The rap music was blasting so loud, so it was a little odd for me haha. Overall, I wouldn't really ever comeback. But those mochinuts were pretty tasty and unique.

The restaurant has a bright, airy atmosphere that feels welcoming even on a slightly cloudy day. The staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful from the moment we arrived. Their Happy Hour menu offered several tempting options, and we sampled a variety of dishes. We started with the Crispy Thai Shrimp, which delivered the perfect balance of sweetness and heat. Kitchen Social is known for its artisan dough pizzas, so we ordered the mushroom pizza, and it certainly did not disappoint. We also tried the Korean BBQ Cauliflower and the Shrimp & Grits...both flavorful and well executed. Since it was Happy Hour, we naturally enjoyed a few cocktails to accompany the meal. We sampled both the Maple Old Fashioned and the traditional Old Fashioned, then ventured a bit further with the Tequila Thyme and the Sangria. Each cocktail was well crafted and enjoyable in its own right. Best of all, because it was Happy Hour, the experience was easy on the wallet. Great food, excellent service, enjoyable drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere make Kitchen Social a place I'll definitely be returning to.
