Krap Pom

Visited during a weekday lunch. There was a short wait, but the tables turned over quickly, so I was seated without much delay. Orders are placed through a QR code at the table, and the food tasted authentic and delicious.

Hey dude, if you want to try Thai food in the Gangnam area of Seoul, this place is worth a visit. The chef is from Thailand, and the food really feels authentic. The flavors danced in my mouth, and I even noticed several Thai customers enjoying their meals, which is always a good sign. I stopped by around 4:30 on a Saturday afternoon and had to wait about 20 minutes before getting a table. The restaurant is on the basement floor, so there are no windows, and honestly my first impression was not great. But once inside, I understood the charm. The place is decorated like a local Thai street market, colorful and lively, and it has a special atmosphere. I was surprised to see so many young women enjoying themselves here. Usually, they prefer places with grand hotel vibes and high ceilings, but this spot clearly has something unique. The service was friendly and quick. I tried the morning glory and the spicy stir-fried instant noodles with ground pork and vegetables. Both dishes were excellent, with a perfect balance of spicy and savory flavors. I left feeling very satisfied. The restaurant is small, with only a handful of tables, so it can be difficult to find a seat. As soon as you arrive, register your phone number at the kiosk. They will send you a KakaoTalk message when your table is ready. Simple and convenient. Enjoy.

Tom Yum soup is delicious, and the pho broth is rich and flavorful. This place has always been popular, so I waited 30 minutes to get in. Every dish is amazing—I think I’ll become a regular!

It is up there as one of the most authentic Thai meals I've had in Korea. Not easy to find red curry here. Prices are reasonable and the entire cooking staff seems to be Thai. Only downside is the wait time but just put your name down and go hang around Apgujeong.

Be ready to wait at least ~30 mins unless you're lucky! Overall experience was great! Food tasted authentic but not everything was of the same quality. I enjoyed the Khao Kha Moo [braised pork leg with rice (not shown in pictures)], Pad Thai, and Morning Glory the most. I definitely want to come back and try the pork rib soup and a few other noodle and rice dishes.

Krap Pom Thai has a fun, casual street food vibe and serves absolutely delicious food. We ordered the red curry, pad kee mow, and papaya salad, and everything was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which added to the great experience. If you’re craving Thai food in Seoul, this spot is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back.

The best Thai food in Korea, they made me feel like eating a Thai food in Thailand, even when they cooking the open air kitchen the smell is really strong made me sneeze. This shop have many delicious dishes than other branch. Have to find a parking lot near by.

This place is absolutely the best Thai hole in the wall that I have found so far in Seoul. We had the chicken masaman and the pad thai w/ shrimp. They hit the spot. We ordered Khao kha mu afterwards. It was truly an authentic Thai dish and better than the kha mu I had in New York. Definitely the best Thai spot in all of Gangnam.
