Ka Thai Uptown

We had a great experience at Ka Thai. Our service was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Ambiance inside was nice but casual. We started off with the steamed Thai dumplings which had a great flavor profile and were of a good size. We then got the chicken pad Thai and black pepper beef. Both entrees were excellent but next time I’d get a higher spice level on the pad Thai for added flavor as it was a bit bland with the more mild option. Overall, I would come back here and try more options on the menu. Note- they validate parking

Us 4 were seated out in the patio during a very busy Saturday dinner. Street view was entertaining with cars blocking railway and firetruck! Entrees are good. The fish (in both the house special and the appetizer) was especially tender and moist. Regarding services: They did mix up our curry spiciness level. Sticky rice mango is very disappointing, in both quality and quantity. The 9 cubes of mango tasted good, but the rice seemed drenched in syrup. We got that dessert to-go and the whole dish fit inside a small paper box.

My husband and I ate here while in Dallas for work and we both have allergies to gluten (he’s celiac, I have a wheat allergy/gluten intolerance). The food was incredible and we felt very safe eating here. Gluten Free is clearly marked on the menu and when we told the server she made sure the kitchen knew our allergies. We shared the chicken satay appetizer, my husband got the curry fried rice and I had the massamun curry. The flavors were out of this world delicious! I would eat here all the time if I lived here. Highly recommend!

Such a great experience at this Thai restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious—authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and perfectly spiced. We came in with a large group and were pleasantly surprised that they were able to seat us right away without a reservation. The staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly. From start to finish, the service and atmosphere were top-notch. Highly recommend for both small dinners and bigger gatherings! 🇹🇭🍜🌶️

Love this place. I was on date a few months back and I brought a few of my girlfriends with me this time around. The food was amazing. Having been in Thailand this is very on par with the food the serve. Highly recommend as a great place to eat without breaking bank and just general beautiful atmosphere. Parking is also available!

This local restaurant offers excellent food and great prices. We enjoyed the green chicken curry and pad thai. The drinks were reasonable during happy hour, and the service was fast and friendly. Pro tip - you get 2 hours free parking below the Courtland M line building with a meal.

We went here as part of a food tour and really enjoyed it! We got to sample a couple of dishes and I fell in love with one of the beef dishes (I can’t remember the name). The restaurant was beautifully decorated and full of natural light. I would go back!

Ka Thai has a great menu with drinks along with the location. They also have a patio for lunch/dinner. I’ve gone several times in the last 2 months. Food is great always fresh and authentic.

Absolutely the best tahi food I have ever had. The service was second to none and you could eat off the floor this place is the bomb I recommend the cashew chicken and the cevechi is killer the whole staff is friendly and clean they won't let your tea glass see the bottom. 100% a 5 star place.

Amazing food, very delicious Spice levels are accurate I ordered the veggie egg rolls, pad Thai and Thai tea. All items were 10/10 Very good portions for the entree if you like to eat a lot, if you have a smaller appetite I'd recommend sharing. Got seated immediately. Scan QR code at bar to get free parking.

Not sure what all of the hype is about this place. My office colleagues love it and to me it is just BLAH. The food is blah, the service is blah...I will say it is clean and well appointed. I have ordered their veggie dishes and they seem to be something I could make from a bag of frozen veggies for $2 vs their $12 ticket. Skip it. HARD PASS!

Had a taste for Thai last night and Ka Thai came through! I've been doing takeout and delivery from here, and this time ordered through Instacart (which uses Uber Eats). The delivery was estimated at 30 minutes, but took over an hour (for a place less than 10 minutes away), but that's on the service...not the restaurant. Thankfully, the food was wrapped up perfectly and still very warm when it arrived. So, I was pleasantly surprised and grateful for that "win"! We had the green curry, black pepper beef, and traditional Thai fried rice...all super tasty and super flavorful. I was especially impressed by how fresh everything still tasted. Next time, I'll skip the middleman and try dining in. Looking forward to the full experience. Happy Eating!

Found Ka on Yelp for a business dinner and was very excited. Firstly , the service is very Thai minded - great in every sense. This is only surpassed by the food itself. Super fresh and tasty . We ordered the chicken Pad Thai and the friend rice as well as a seaweed salad . Truly delicious!!

Tried dinner during the weekend after hearing some great things about this place. They validate parking in the apartment garage in the same building. Super convenient and easy- just make sure not to park in any reserved spots. For the food, we tried to crab avocado spring rolls, which were unique and delicious! Would recommend trying them! For my entree, I got the chicken pad see ew, which was filling and had lots of chicken and vegetables. I finished about half of the dish. For dessert, I split the sweet mango sticky rice, which was really good! They cut up the mango into small pieces, which makes it easy to share and eat. The inside is very beautiful, calm, and elegant. Bathrooms are very clean too. Our server was fantastic, as was the hostess. Really enjoyed the warm and friendly atmosphere the staff creates for guests.

Pad See Ew with Tofu, Spice Level 2 Solid pad see ew! Glad to finally try this place. Definitely easily going to be a regular place to visit for solid thai food. Not life-changing or anything, but very good

Fantastic Thai food--Ka Thai is a must-visit! Ambiance & Service: Modern, trendy interior with plenty of seating. Check their website for garage parking details. Service is quick, friendly, and efficient! Food: - Crispy Spring Rolls: Perfectly crispy, packed with veggies, and paired with a delicious sweet sauce. - Thai Basil Fried Rice: Savory, spicy, and uniquely fried to stay soft. A must-try! - Pad Thai: Sweet, nutty, and perfectly balanced. Fantastic! TL;DR: Great ambiance, excellent service, and amazing Thai food. Don't miss the Thai Basil Fried Rice!

This was my first time dining in (I usually do takeout), and I'm so glad I did. The ambiance is light, fresh, and welcoming. Especially on a nice day when you can snag a seat on their cozy little patio. It's perfect for people-watching while enjoying your meal. Service was top-notch. The staff was warm, attentive, and on it! My water never made it past the halfway mark without a refill. The food? Always a hit. I ordered the Pad See Eew, and while they were out of the traditional flat noodles and swapped in Pad Thai noodles instead, the flavor still delivered. Savory, balanced, and satisfying. One note: if you're a fellow spice lover, just know their heat scale runs a little mild. I ordered a 4 and it felt closer to a 3, so bump it up if you're chasing that kick.

Found this yummy Thai Place in a cute shopping area in Midtown, Walnut Hill Lane. Everything was delicious! We look forward to visiting again! Thank you!

Searching for a new place to try and stumbled upon this place. The location was in the corner of kind of a strip mall. Once you enter, the restaurant was very well decorated and had a nice ambiance. It was a Sunday around 1 pm and they were able to seat us immediately. Sundays are also happy hour for some of the appetizers. We tried many appetizers and also food to eat. Everything was really flavorful. And if I lived in the area I'd definitely be going back. It was a hidden gem

OMG! I love this place!! The vibe sitting on the patio is so chill, the service is good, and the food is the best part! We loved everything we tried. It was packed and now I see why.    My ratings are:  Thai Tea - 10/10 Chicken Wings - 9/10 Traditional Thai Fried Rice w/ Shrimp - 9/10 Pad Kee Maw w/ Beef - 10/10   I was stuffed so I didn't get to try desert, but I am looking forward to trying more of their menu.

Great service, and good was very delicious, came out hot and tasty. Enjoyed the dishes and some yummy drinks plus dessert. A great find for a nice dinner in uptown!

I've been in uptown now for 2 1/2 years and I can't believe I have not tried this place out! I went in for happy hour and had some amazingly priced sparkling wine and then I met two friends for dinner. The service was excellent. The food was excellent. Honestly, I was a little leary because I traveled to Thailand last year and had the most amazing Thai food! I have to say I was very impressed and can't wait to return. Is now definitely on my MUST return list!!

This restaurant was approved by Nara Smith, so I decided to check it out. I ordered a Pad Kee Maw (wide rice noodles stir fried with chicken, egg, basil, onion, bell pepper, and jalapeños) with a spice level of 4 over the phone. This dish is what I usually get at Thai restaurants, and it was as good as I was expecting. It wasn't very spicy so I would get a spice level of 5 or ask for a side of peppers next time, but it did build a bit with each bite. There is validated parking in the Cortland M-line Apartment Garage at Bowen St & McKinney Ave, although they said not to worry about it since I was there for under 10 minutes. I appreciate how there's a window next to the entrance from the garage specifically designated for to-go orders. My food was ready upon my arrival packed in a paper bag with napkins and utensils, so the entire process was very smooth. The interior was decorated nicely; I can see myself coming back for another meal!

A modern Thai restaurant with attentive customer service combining traditional Thai food with a contemporary restaurant design. Upon entering the front, you're warmly greeted by the host. If you park in the garage (2 hour free parking is validated by the restaurant), you enter through a seating area to wait for to-go or pick-orders. Soft, ambient lighting creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Tables are well-spaced to allow for privacy and comfort, with comfortable seating that encourages guests to relax and enjoy their meal. The staff is exceptionally attentive, keeping drinks full and ensuring your satisfaction throughout the entire dining experience. They're knowledgeable about the menu, ready to offer recommendations based on your preferences, and can provide detailed descriptions of dishes, including ingredients and spice levels. The yellow curry (spice level 1) and bearable stir fry with beef (spice level 2) were both served with white rice and bursting with mouth watering flavor. The restaurant strikes a perfect balance between efficiency and warmth, ensuring that every guest feels like they've received personalized attention.

Probably my favorite restaurant in uptown. Haven't had a bad item yet. It's nice that it's not super busy as I have not had to get a reservation yet. I hope it stays open because the food is great and the staff is on the spot with the refills on drinks. Ambiance is nice; however it does get a little loud inside when its busy, but outside is the best when the weather is nice. My favorite Items: Ceviche, Pineapple Rice, unsweet ice tea, and Sweet & Sour Chicken Stir fry.

First went to Ka Thai on a food tour. We like the food so much that we went back for lunch a few days later. Food was amazing! We asked for recommendations and the staff answered all our questions. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very tranquil and calming.

The food was fantastic and came out quick! I particularly liked the curry, ad the pad Thai was pretty standard. The vibe of the restaurant was fantastic. I've found it hard to find an upscale Thai place, and this did the trick. One note: If you're parking in the garage you can register your car at the front and not pay for parking like I did! The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of our server. She was very curt and not friendly. Additionally I'd asked a question about the plum wine and she said it was good so I tried it at her recommendation. I took one sip and it tasted like children's grape medicine so I asked if I could get a different drink, but was surprised that the plum wine was still on my check when I went to pay. I would have expected to pay for the wine if she'd left the glass on the table and just brought over the second drink, but she took my wine and brought out the new glass of wine I ordered. Other than being a little disappointed by the unfriendliness of our server, we had a great meal.

They were pretty packed and busy, but we really enjoyed the experience overall. You can easily park in the parking garage that's behind Mi Cocina, you can scan the QR code in the restaurant and enter your license plate number and they validate your parking for two hours which is nice. The food itself was really tasty- we got the fried Thai dumplings (which unfortunately I didn't photograph) and they were very flavorful. I got the pad see eew noodles with chicken and they were seasoned just right, with the perfect level of spice (you choose whatever level you want). The service was pretty quick too, even with the business of the restaurant. I'd like to come back during the spring or fall and sit on the patio because it seemed really nice !

Another great visit at Ka Thai with friends! 10/10 all around. The service is quick and our server recommended many options. Choose your spice level carefully- 2 has been the highest I can go.

We stopped in for lunch for my nieces birthday and while the service started off fine, it went downhill fast. Toward the end of our meal, our server was nowhere to be found. We had to flag someone down just to get our check and ask for to-go boxes. Then we noticed a 20% gratuity was automatically added to the bill, which felt a bit scammy considering the service was barely there by the end. The food was average overall nothing particularly memorable, except for the spicy edamame, which was actually excellent. Just a heads up if you plan to visit: double-check your bill and don't expect attentive service all the way thru your experience.

ambiance is very nice and upscale, a nice place for a special occasion. spring rolls were pretty good, the outer layer was nice and crispy. the drunken noodles could have used some more sauce, but the pineapple fried rice was very good. their spice levels seem a bit lower when compared to other thai places so maybe go a level above. service was very friendly

We went to check this place out after seeing all the tiktok hype. Both the dishes were good but nothing super crazy. The flavors were present and it wasn't too spicy. The service was attentive and inside was very classy and cute. The atmosphere was dimly lit and would be nice for a date night spot.

One of the best Thai places in Dallas! I always get the pad kee mao at Thai places and this one here was very flavorful with lots of chicken! The summer roll appetizer was okay, however. Food portions are fairly large for the price. The ambiance is very modern and clean.

Delicious food, service is over the top and a really beautiful atmosphere . What else is there?! We'd be regulars we lived here!

This place is so gorgeous. Great for a date night. I got the Heaven Beef and m-line smash. Both were an absolute hit! Can't wait to come back.

Ka Thai is a must visit! The food is delicious and always comes out super fast. The service is great and i love the ambiance here. Super welcoming and nice.

Ordered delivery for dinner one Thursday night. Hubs and I got spring rolls, wings, pad thai with shrimp and "premium" chicken, and traditional Thai fried rice with "premium" chicken. The spring rolls were crispy and delicious. The wings, however, were disappointing. They were 4 small wings cut in half. I ordered Thai flavor, but they barely had any sauce...or meat. Not worth the price at all. The pad Thai was good. I would have loved a bit more peanut and a bit less sugar. Now...I have no idea what was "premium" about the chicken. It was the same chicken I've had at many other Thai restaurants. They won't get that upcharge from me again. I wondered if they forgot to include the premium part of it. The fried rice was the star. Really good flavor. I wished I had ordered that. I'll definitely try them again, but may try something different than the pad Thai. I'll also leave off the wings and "premium" chicken.

This place was amazing! I went for my besties birthday late lunch/early dinner and it was a 10/10. From the beautiful aesthetics (decor, seating, colors, vibe), light music, location. The food was amazing! We got the crab fried rice (get with Thai sauce on the side BOMB, pad Thai, avocado crab roll. Yes!! It takes a while to make the food, which gives time for chatting, enjoying apps, or taking pictures! It was her birthday so they gave us a complimentary scoop of ice cream! THANKS!!! Park in the parking garage, enter through the back of the restaurant or enter through the front, but have a great entry for pictures. Will definitely be back!

Honestly one of the best tasting Thai places in all of Texas. Very large portionsto share

Excellent food including many vegetarian options. The pad Thai was slightly on the sweeter side but good with a twist of lime. Really good basil fried rice.

Fav fav fav Thai food! My husband and I recently moved nearby and were on the hunt for good Thai food. This was the first place we tried and we haven't been to another one since haha, but have made tons of visits back here. I'd say almost weekly :)

Great location on the trolley line on Dallas' historic McKinney Ave. Think 100 year old streetcars & brick streets. The restaurant has incredible food. Curries are great. Elegant presentation and beautiful atmosphere with high ceilings. This is a walkable neighborhood so that's added fun.

Had Lunch today at Ka Thai with coworkers for the first time today. We started with some spring rolls has an appetizer and I went ahead and got the pad thai with shrimp and chicken. It's was so delicious and had really great flavor. It was so good I clean out my plate. The portion is also pretty filling.. The server was great and polite. The place actually looks small from the outside but it once your inside there is great amount of space to seat. They also have an outdoor patio. I will definitely return to this restaurant to try something else on the menu.

Great Thai spot! It's so cute and aesthetic here. We started off with a round of drinks and I got the fly me to the moon ($10) and my friend got a marg. The cocktail was sweet & not too strong w the coconut. We got the drunken noodles and the pad thai w shrimp and chicken ($16.95). I will say- this is on the pricer side, but it comes in a bigger portion. wish there was the same amount of shrimp as there was chicken- otherwise great protein size. I got it for 3/5 spice level and it was perfect for a good kick. Usually I get chili oil or hot sauce but this was the first time in a while I didn't have to- which was super nice. And the waiters were so attentive! Totally recommend this place for a dine in thai restaurant vs takeout.

I had a lovely lunch at Ka Thai. This review is for their Midtown location which I don't see listed here on Yelp. I ordered Pad Udon which features udon noodles, bok choy, scallions, carrots, mushrooms and bean sprouts in a light brown sauce. It was nice and light. Very healthy. Another thing this restaurant does well is its presentation of flowers. Each table had what looked to be an orchid. There is also a nice flower arrangement in the men's bathroom. Flowers add so much and they are well presented here.

I ordered through uber eats and it was really good. I heard this was trad wife Nara smith's favorite Thai restaurant in Dallas so I had to try. I got green curry, yellow curry, crab puffs and fried banana. Everything was delicious! Green curry was my favorite tbh. Would order again

Joined some friends for a double date during happy hour and thoroughly enjoyed our visit! We walked in for an early dinner around 5pm and were promptly seated. Service was laidback and very friendly and food was quick and delicious! Simply put, this was a great spot with authentic Thai food that delivered in flavor, portion, and aesthetic execution. Highly recommend dropping by for lunch, happy hour, or dinner! QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, park in the M-Line Garage behind the restaurant ($5 for 2 hrs., but you will get it validated)! You must register/pay for parking first and then they will give you a QR code to have it validated. There is also street parking around the area. - Happy hour? Yes, daily from 3-6pm and all day on Sundays! Special priced drinks (including mocktails) and snacks/apps. - Reservations? No, just walk in! - Takeout/order ahead? Yes, you can order online or call to place a takeout order. FOOD RATINGS: - Pad Thai (4/5): Solid pad Thai. Generous portion. The only regret is asking for level 3 spice and severely underestimating the kick! Great flavor, though. - Tom Kha Udon (5/5): I love Tom Kha soup and I love udon noodles, so this was a dream combo. I opted to have it mildly spicy, and it was delicious and flavorful. Tasted just as expected! - Mango Sticky Rice (5/5): Big fan of mango sticky rice and this was one of the top ones I've had. Loved the plating and arrangement, and the coconut ice cream add-on is worth the $2! You can also choose green tea ice cream instead. Delicious!

Wife and I have visited most well known Thai Spots in DFW. It is our go to cuisine. This is up there amongst the best we've probably had. We will 100% be back!!! -food is FRESH, looks fresh and tastes fresh. Portions are great too. -service is great, despite it being busy. -parking is free in the garage. -PRICE IS VERY REASONABLE considering uptown location. Drinks are great and reasonably priced too. Many places in the area are charging way more for far less. Must try: pad kee maw , chicken spring rolls, black pepper beef

Nice lively place in uptown Dallas and great food as well. We were there with a party of 10 and service was great. The place gets a bit loud, but I really liked the food there. While a bit salty, the Pad Kee Maw Spice Level 3 was really flavorful. The Mi Krop was my favorite... was nice and crispy with a tangy twist to it. Loved the service as well. Food was brought in time, wait staff checked on us multiple times, Empty plates were picked up promptly making place for the new ones coming in. Drinks were a bit on the sweeter side. I had to ask for my Mule to be less sweet and more zinged. Beware of the parking. While the parking is comped/validated, the parking structure is a bit tight. Good thing is the back entrance to the restaurant opens in the parking structure, which is great in cold weather. Definitely a place to visit again.

Such a cute restaurant, great for big parties too. The staff were nice and accommodated to our needs. The food was also good, I got the pad kee maw with level 2 spice and it wasn't spicy at all (coming from someone who can eat Thai spice). It was flavorful and you can't go wrong with it. 7/10. Most of us got our own dish and it was filling but can also be shared between 2 for a plate.

I can't express how good this place is, truly worth every star ! The heavenly beef is my favorite but everything was so flavorful and tasty ! I got the grilled seabass as well but i didn't know it came with this many veggies i opted for the white wine sauce. The music choice was...a choice. It's hard to stay in a romantic mood with preppy house music playing from an android speakerphone. That's my only negative about this place , everything from the food to the service was 10/10

Excellent service and food.. nice ambiance.... Highly recommend... Great cocktails.....................

Hands Down, the Best Thai Experience! From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for something special. The restaurant has a bright, sophisticated vibe--elegant yet welcoming. It's the perfect mix of upscale and comfortable. We came to celebrate my teenage son's birthday, and it did not disappoint. The service was flawless. Now, the food? Absolutely out of this world! Every dish was authentic flavors, players well, and cooked to perfection. Everything was spot-on. To top it off, the prices are extremely reasonable for the quality and experience. To find a place that nails upscale dining without the steep price tag; thank you :) We will definitely be back. If you love Thai food and want an unforgettable meal with top-tier service, this is the place to go!

We visited Ka Thai on a Dallas Food tour. The service was good and the atmosphere was too. It wasn't very crowded maybe due to the rainy weather. The Thai Dumplings are good as well as the Good Luck Elephant cocktail!

Food is ok at best. Do not order the sampler. 17 bucks for 4 tiny wings 1 spring roll cut into 4 pieces and 8-9 pieces of dry beef tips. Biggest rip off I've ever seen. Go to si lom. Close by and just much better

Called for reservations for a Friday night. When we arrived it was dead inside so I'm guessing most people just come for take out. They validate parking so make sure you scan the QR code in the garage and then scan in the restaurant upon arrival. They have a lot of signs directing you to do this. Our service was great and our waitress was very attentive. We started with the sampler with the spring roll, roti and chicken satay. All were delicious!! For mains we got pad kee maw, yellow curry and cashew stir fry with shrimp all were great! They ask you your spice preference 1-5 which is great. We got 3's which were perfect! I'll definitely be back. One star off cause there was some small gnats flying around the restaurant that got into one of our drinks
