Overpriced for what you get. I ordered crab rangoon and pad kee mao. The rangoon were great (which is why it gets an extra star) but the noodles were so bland. There was no sauce. The vegetables were undercooked. For how much I paid I was expecting much much more. I will not be returning.

Today we ordered Bangkok Kapow. It had a partially fertilized fried egg in itThis is very unusual for them...Thai people made like partially fertilized fried eggs, but the average American does not like that or expect that in a fried egg.They had to have seen it when cooking the egg...

I do not usually leave reviews, let alone negative ones. This was my first time ordering from King & I, and I got the chicken see-ew and it was the worst dish I have ever gotten from a restaurant. Pad see-ew is my favorite thai dish, and I was excited to find a good place that offered it from in my neighborhood. Unfortunately, I was taken back when I opened it and it smelled absolutely terrible, worse than hot garbage. I had one bite and weirdly it was very bland, but something was off about it. Regardless though, I just couldn't get past the smell. It also just looked very sad. I would have rated one star, but my boyfriend ordered the Four Kings of Thailand and that was flavorful so that saved the meal. Plus the server at the pick up counter was an absolute joy. I'm disappointed and genuinely hoping this is just a fluke. I hope to order from here again, but it would have to be outstanding for me to come back after that.

Excellent as always. Tho I will say, this evening was very good. The mango sticky rice is dead on from an authentic recipe I use.The poor staff and manager had some customers that were rude, but the handled it like pros.

My curry was good but my wife's soup was a miss. The mango drink was good but not worth the price. The fresh spring rolls were delicious, large and very fresh.

5 out of 5 the food is amazing and the customer service is one of a kind. They were so engaged with the customers. Which created a comfortable environment for everyone. I came in with a pretty large group of 12 people and got nothing but the best for all 12 guest. I love this place and the staff are amazing.. I just want to thank the manager and the rest of the staff from the servers to the kitchen thank you for making my very first business meeting/ dinner something to remember.

Ordered from here for the first time yesterday. Their spicy fried rice was DELICIOUS and the way they cooked the tofu was perfect. Only complaint is i wish it was a little spicier but thats because i like stuff scorching hot. I will definitely be getting food from here again

So many mixed feelings.Great food in general. Their panang curry is one of the best things I've eaten. It's my go to dish at any restaurant that has it, and theirs is the best I've ever had by a long shot. It's not soupy like some other places. It's thick and velvety and just so full of flavor. It's lick-the-plate good.I also get sick every time I eat here. It wasn't so bad at first, just a stomachache for a few hours afterwards. I kept going back because it's just so good. Last time I suffered some, uh, "gastrointestinal issues" for about two weeks after eating here. That's pretty excessive, so I was regretfully forced to retire from dining at King & I.And yet my mouth still waters thinking about that curry. I don't have the same problem when I eat at other places, but once you've had the best it's hard to settle for less.

I haven't been in a while, and I'm not sure if it was because it was a slow Tuesday evening, but things seemed off. They were out of several menu items and it seemed the prices were higher than I remember. The food was good, but I wasn't able to order certain sides I could always order before. If it was my first time here and our server wasn't new, it might have been a fine experience. This was always a favorite when I had special outings, but I will be hesitant to come here next time.

We ordered through DD. Pad Thai was good, but the Drunken Noodle dish hardly had any noodles, had way too much sauce, and I honestly don't understand the huge chunks of tomatoes. The flavor of the dish was great, but I'd recommend omitting the tomatoes, less sauce, and more noodles.
