About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour
  • Hot spot
  • Neighborhood gem
Kin Dee’s is a modern tropical eatery with cuisine that is truly authentic representation of Thailand through its unique flavors, its ingredients and overall vision. Focused on made-from-scratch, authentic and primarily noodle-based dishes, Kin Dee delivers native cuisine exactly like it’s served in Thailand. Kin Dee’s beverage menu boasts 13 signature cocktails – each inspired by and designed to pair perfectly with one of the 13 signature entrees. Concocted with a decidedly Thai flair, cocktails include the Tom Yum, a Thai twist on a classic Texas margarita, the Mango Sticky Rice, a play on the well-known Thai dessert and the Phuket, a sour twist on a pineapple flavored drink. Kin Dee also serves a selection of wine, draft beer and Thai beer. Our patios are dog friendly.

    This place is fantastic. The food was delicious. The wait staff was very attentive and nice. The only drawback was parking - very limited shared parking lot. Impossible to get a spot Friday lunch time. We ended up doing street parking down the block

    Kai soi was very salty and did not have much curry flavor (although I asked no spicy but I guess I should have asked for mild). The pad see ewe was too sweet. There were not much veggies in either dish. ThI butterfly pea dumplings were tasty.

    Such a cute restaurant with great ambiance. We can during happy hour and we enjoyed the half off cocktails and discounted apps. A DJ came later in the evening so that really added to the vibe. I feel the food was good but did not blow me away. Did not have the bold Thai flavors I’m used to. Our server was also not very attentive, often texting or chatting at the bar and not checking on us.
