What an amazing little place for dinner! Celebrated my husband’s birthday with calamari, spring rolls and dumplings. We had the house mojitos. Our server was polite, friendly and attentive and even brought my husband dessert. We will definitely come back next time we are in the area.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kai Vietnamese Restaurant – Downtown Tulsa An outstanding lunch experience! We had a business lunch for six and were seated quickly thanks to a call-ahead (highly recommend—this place is popular for a reason). The food was absolutely delicious. We shared a variety of appetizers—Vietnamese Egg Rolls, Shrimp & Pork Spring Rolls, Grilled Pork Spring Rolls, and Crab Rangoons—and every single one was bursting with fresh flavor and perfect texture. I ordered the Grilled Shrimp Banh Mi, and it was incredible. The bread was perfectly crusty, the shrimp grilled just right, and the veggies fresh and flavorful. The fish sauce tied it all together beautifully. Our server, T, was fantastic—quick, efficient, and very friendly. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal, and we’ll definitely be back. If you’re in downtown Tulsa, Kai is a must-visit for incredible Vietnamese food and excellent service. Just call ahead to avoid the wait!

Phenomenal Bun Cha Gio with fish sauce. I devoured my plate before I realized I hadn’t taken a photo but you can see some of the beautiful yummy veggies. My son enjoyed orange chicken with fried rice and loved it. Portions are plenty large enough to share easily or have a 2nd meal. Service is always fast. Our server ensured to ask about food related allergies while ordering which was very much appreciated.

Great spot to have lunch during lunch break from work. Ideal location for office workers and tourists. Staff were friendly and attentive. And the food was amazing. I had the brisket Pho. Quality ingredients and tender meat

Beautiful & speedy service. I was able to go there for my lunch break during work! Usually picky about my Bun Cha Gio, and this was delicious. Eggroll was yummy too. Can't wait to try more dishes!

I went there for lunch and it was busy. That was the first day. The next day I took my wife there for dinner and it was a nice, quiet and intimate. It was the perfect setting for a nice evening date. Tulsa really has weather like Los Angeles sometime. The staff is nice, and the food is very good as well. There is really nothing I can say that hasn't already been said. Here is the proof. That Bum Mi was great and the spring rolls were really good too. You can't go wrong with any of the rice dishes, as well with the vermicelli bowl's, the steam buns, and that FRIED CHICKEN tossed in sweet chili and fish sauce 😲 soooooo good too. They have vegetarian options too. They definitely have the flavors.

They have a good menu and it is near my office in downtown. I tried their Pho and it was pretty good. Had some good flavor. The price is a bit high but otherwise it was a good experience. Chicken fried rice was another item I tried along with passion fruit lemonade. Flavor was really good. The passion fruit lemonade is awesome.

Kai uses extrememly fresh ingredients. The spring rolls taste fresh from the garden. I've worked through most of the menu and everything is delicious. Update 6/16/2025 - it has been a year but here we are again. I can't believe I have been eating here since it opened. I had the H2, the combination seafood in shimmering broth. My wife had Vermicelli with tofu, a go-to dish. Update: 5/9/2024 - It has been awhile since I went to Kai. Just remembering how fresh the ingredients were, drew me back. Being a lover of seafood, I had the H1, Hù tiēu, which is a traditional chicken broth simmered for hours with seafood, sheer noodles, and served with fresh beans sprout and basil leaves for wilting in the soup. Also at the table, was V4, Vermicelli with Tofu. It looked very delicious and Kai can really make Tofu exciting. For an appetizer, we had our favorite, the Lotus salad. It was fresh and the fish chips are so delicious. We sat outside on a quiet pleasant evening and took in the placid environment. It was a wonderful dining experience. I'd like to add that the hot green tea is nice, especially for a spring evening. Kai has been one of, if not the one, my favorite restaurants to dine at. Update: Tonight 5/26/22 - The great thing about Kai is that it is there for you when your day or string of days may be very challenging. My assorted Lo Mein was front and center in my mind before leaving. I needed some comfort and Kai delivered! Update: Tonight 5/21/21 I had the H1 (The Glass Noodle Seafood). I asked for it extra spicy. It comes in a giant bowl and is served in Kai's shimmering broth. It was so delicious. On a scale of 5, it was my first 6. I've given most of their dishes a 5. This one just blew me away. I also had the Lotus Salad appetizer for the first time and I was surprisingly pleased with the taste and combination of the shrimp crackers and fish sauce. Definitely having it again.
