Krungthep Thai

Food was ok for the price. Boat noodle had flavor and plenty of meat. Special pho(seafood) was a little bland and lacked flavor. Noodle portion to broth felt little. I would suggest using a smaller bowl to match the portions. Spring roll was presented well and fresh. Frog legs had a lot of flavor. I would suggest if you're eating here to get the more traditional dishes and stay away from the dishes you can get at other places, like the pho. Zero wait time and food came out within 10 mins and was fresh.

Food is consistently great. Spice level is accurate, if not spicier than you request, but I love spicy! We always leave with leftovers as portions are decent size.

This place has been on my list to try and I finally went. I should've gone sooner! Absolutely delicious food! They were pretty busy, so one plate came out pretty late, but the server was really good about communicating and we overall had a great experience there. The egg fried rice was so flavorful and the pork skewers were amazing. Highly recommend!

Our favorite Thai place just 15 minutes from home our friends love going there and they drive over 50 minutes to get there with no regrets. Plenty on street parking and a small parking lot in the back. Very authentic Thai food lots of spicy options for mild to super spicy.

Me and my sisters decided to go eat here today. When we got inside, they seated us. Mind you, there were 5 of us. One waitress only brought us 3 cup of water. Then later brought another one. Then after that brought an extra one after we had to ask for another one since there was 5 of us. When they brought the 4th cup, the lady gave us 1 straw. When they brought the 5th cup, they gave us only 1 more straw. We had to ask for 3 more. Food came out in about like 10-15 mins. Pretty good I would say as we ordered the chicken pad Thai medium spicy, beef pad Thai medium spicy, N35, boat noodle, chicken pad krapao mild, and medium spicy Lao papaya. What they brought to us was, chicken pad Thai mild, beef pad see ew non spicy, beef boat noodle, N35, medium spicy kao papaya, and mild pad krapao. My pad see ew was not spicy at all, the chili flakes on the side were no helpful. I loved the Lao papaya salad medium spicy, although my sisters all agreed that it was a little bit on the fishy side from the fish sauce. And the beef pad see ew was very good, not too overly flavored. The pad Thai was okay, the noodle was the very cheap noodle for pho that was not good. It was too much overcooked and flavor wasn’t really there, just sweet. The boat noodle was on the sweeter side. N35 was great. Pad krapao was okay, chicken was dry for me, but one of my sister likes it. Overall, service was a 2/5, food was a 3/5 and atmosphere was a 3/5. I wouldn’t recommend the pad Thai and beef boat noodle. The pad Thai and pad see ew along with the pad krapao was expensive.the portions for dine in are pretty good. But the to go portions are much smaller in size. I would recommend to order in store then pack it to go.

We recently dined at Krungthep Thai and was genuinely impressed by the flavorful dishes and warm, attentive service. The food was vibrant and well-prepared—definitely some of the best Thai cuisine I’ve had in the area. However, there was one hiccup during our visit. We were served the wrong dish, and when we brought it up, the staff insisted it was the drunken noodles we had ordered. It was a bit disappointing that the mix-up wasn’t acknowledged. That said, the overall experience was still positive, and I’d be happy to return—hopefully with a bit more clarity on the menu next time!

Amazing Thai food. Same owners as Bangkok deli but this place is a bit better. Likely based on whomever is the chef that day. Don't go here for cleanliness or attention by wait staff, go here for good Thai food.

I've ordered from here plenty of times but last night was the first time I ate in. My brother, myself, and three other friends all ordered a main dish and appetizers. Everything was great, and in great portions. Their pineapple curry is amazing

I ordered takeout here for lunch. Ordering was quick and easy, the food was ready promptly. I thought it was good, but I'll be honest not that different from the options that are closer to me on University. I think it's a good place for a Thai meal if you're in the area.

Great spot to get your thai fixing in! Love how big the plates are and flavored each dish is. Service is a tad slow, but it doesn't beat how good i'm grubbing on that pad see ew

I highly recommend this Thai restaurant. When you first walk in, you instantly notice that this is a restaurant the owners take pride in. It is simply and beautifully decorated with lots of natural light and plentiful seating. The back of the restaurant has a few parking spaces (like 10) and can get pretty busy so come early. We opted for street parking since there was no parking when we got there. We ordered nava, spring rolls, and egg rolls to start. The nava is more jelly based than tapioca based. However they add in additional flavoring (probably palm sugar instead of cane sugar?) that gives it a more exotic flavor. There are also chia seeds. I thought it was very good. The spring rolls were my favorite appetizer there. Perfect proportions of meat, noodle, and veggies/herbs. The dipping sauce was a wonderful blend of sweet and savory. My husband ordered the drunken noodles with medium spice l. It was very spicy (it was Asian spicy, not Minnesota spicy). He was mostly disappointed that it used regular pho noodles instead of the flat noodles. I thought the pork was a bit over cooked, but the flavors were nice in this noodle dish. I couldn't handle much of the spice though. I ordered the stuffed chicken wing paeneng curry and it was the best thing I've eaten in a while. Wonderfully fatty with a delicious blend of sweet, savory and spicy. The coconut milk with the curry flavors were out of this world. The stuffed chicken wing itself had noodles, ground meat, and cabbage stuffing. I thought the stuffing was delicious. The chicken skin gave this dish a variety of texture. I would come back here just for this dish. Everything else is a bonus lol The service and time to get your food was pretty good here too. Can't wait to visit again.

Wow, delicious, flavorful Thai food with a very extensive menu. We were on the search for a new Thai restaurant and were so glad to have discovered this gem. They have been open for 4+ years...I'm thinking why did we wait so long? The shrimp pad Thai was excellent...succulent, flavorful and not dry at all. The creamy Tom kha was my husband's favorite dish. Don't let the word creamy scare you. It has, just a tad, of milk to give it the right consistency...and so flavorful! The red curry with chicken was fantastic. The only dish I'm neutral about is the eggplant. There is something a bit salty in the preparation. Overall, GO!!!! Don't wait several years like we did...won't get that time back for yummy thai food.

There's this other Thai place we love but they're relocating and aren't open yet. This place has been here for a long time but we never saw it simply due to not driving through this area often. Recommended by my SIL and we're glad we finally stopped by. Everything we've had is so good. Just haven't had the pho but if I wanted pho, a Thai restaurant probably isn't the place to visit. So far, been here four times. Not once disappointed.

I actually love this place! I believe it is still under the same ownership as Bangkok thai on University. A beautiful ambience as they also do a lot of events at this location! Beautiful chandeliers, and feels very fancy for being in the middle of Rice street. The food is great and the prices are even better exclamation. Also appreciate the hours of operation they seem to be open when no one else is.!

Can never go wrong with Krungthep Thai. They have a great selection to choose from, the menu is huge! The food is flavorful. Their spice level is pretty spicy so I would recommend getting no spice or low for those who do not like their food spicy. They do have a party room downstair but I'm uncertain if it's open at this time. For the most part, the restaurant is clean. Parking is limited but can also park on the street.

Been here a few times with my family. We tried a variety of dishes. They make great Thai staples such as papaya salad, larb, and curry dishes. The pho was not good, a little more than flavored water. Service is ok. Be prepared for a wait if you come during peak meal times. Restaurant is clean and welcoming. Stick to the Thai classics, but don't get the Pho here.

Great experience overall. The service team is a bunch of young high schooler seems like it. Been here a few times and have not been disappointed by the food and service. It's a nice family friendly restaurant and the vibes is really causal. Dishes that I got during this visit are pictured below.

We always do takeout. Love the curries and the spaghetti Panaeng!!! Appetizers are also great.

Lots of food choices!! Place is clean, waitress kind of lazy, only fill our water one (or probably did not, couldn't recall). Have to get waitress for service (smh). Food was good, many varieties of dishes. Pho broth needs more flavor and it's clear (needs improvement). The laab was sweet which it's now how it should taste. Pad seer en (drunken noodles) was good. Stuffed wings was awesome. Not every dishes is a must, but definitely going back to eat some of the dishes.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Best mango sticky rice and I keep coming back for the atmosphere. I love the artwork and general vibe so dine in if you can

I've been here a couple of times and every time the food has been consistently good! My go to dish is usually the the pork rind stir fry. Had the pho it was ok. The menu is pretty extensive and would definitely like to try more items. I recommend this place for thai food; the flavors are on point, the staff are friendly, the inside is up to date. Come check them out.

We ordered several dishes including pad thai, pad see ew, roasted honey duck, clams, crab fried rice, lobster / w house sauce, seafood hot pot. The only dish I would order again is the lobster w/ house sauce. Everything else was mediocre. The service was good and the food came out pretty fast.

The people are friendly. Quick service. Great food. Good atmosphere. And it seems that the people around me were very satisfied.

I think this is my new favorite Thai owned place for Thai food in the Twin Cities. The menu is big and it's the same owners (and menu) as Bangkok Thai Deli on University Ave also in St. Paul but a bit better because 1. Service is friendly here 2. The food is still delicious here everytime 3. It's a bigger/cleaner space on the inside (although parking is better for Bangkok Thai Deli). Because the menu is so big, I think there is definitely something on here for anyone! I really enjoyed the Laos style papaya (although it is pricey compared to other places & smaller portions) and the eggplant stir fry with ground pork and shrimp! The curry here and the boat noodle soup/pho is also super flavorful here! Like many other Yelpers have mention, the parking lot is a bit small, so expect to look for street parking during lunch and dinner hours, especially on the weekends. Usually if you come in parties of 4 or more gratitude/tip is already added to the bill!

I'm a huge fan of very spicy foods, and I've had my eye on Krungthep Thai in the North End for a while. I live pretty close, but hadn't made it there until today. They have a typical 5-level spice index, from no spice to very spicy. Reading Yelp reviews, I was a little nervous - because some folks were reporting that Medium would burn your face off. Since I rarely trust Minnesotans' views on heat levels, I decided to go for #4, Spicy. =) I got the Panang curry with stuffed chicken wings. It's a red curry sauce with coconut milk, ginger, basil, and other typical Thai spices. Got it to go. It smelled awesome when I unpacked it. Took my first few bites. Now THIS is going in the right direction. It was not much of a mouth/throat heat, though there was that, but my body reacted with typical fight or flight. Couple beads of sweat, face was flushed. Went down warm and heated me from the inside. Very tasty. Now, it could be that this preparation didn't lend itself to heating up as much as others with say, a lot of Thai peppers, but I feel pretty confident that getting my next dish "Very Spicy" will be an awesome, face-melting experience!

I love this place, the food is so good, the service is amazing, I really love the hospitality here. The menu is big, but everything I've tried has been amazing, I always ask for a recommendation around what I'm in the mood for, and they never disappoint. Easily on of my favorites, and will be back here many more times to come.

Krungthep Thai is a nice alternative to Bangkok Thai Deli (BTD). Food comes on a similarly spicy side of the spectrum as the old BTD, so that's why I make that comparison. Also, one or more of the BTD chefs or someone associated with them came over to Krungthep supposedly or something. Anyway, the food is decent. Their curries are their strong suit, but I'm also a sucker for curry, so take that claim with a grain of pepper. We've been here three times since they opened. On our last visit, we had the green curry with mock duck and drunken noodles with that same mocking duck. (We love to be insulted by our wheat gluten.) The noodles were both sweet and mildly spicy. The curry was a bit disappointing: it was spicy and flavorful, but also very oily and much more on the brothy side than the curry gravy side. Maybe that's how it should be though (thin). Service was polite but barely around on our last visit, though it hasn't been strong or engaging on any of our times there. They are understaffed and had a help wanted sign on their door, but we didn't even see the server anywhere in the dining room most of the time that she wasn't at our table. Overall, I'd give it 3.5 stars: food 4-4.5 stars in general (though 3.5-4 on our last visit). I'll round this review up to 4 stars, because I'm all round like that and Yelp allows whole stars only. Give it a try.

Fantastic Thai food. Curry was amazing. Nice clean building. Huge menu. I'll be coming back

We've been on a quest trying different Thai places lately.. we really liked this one. The service was excellent. I probably had three different people from the restaurant stop by our table and ask how things were.... Presentation was great and prices are reasonable. It's worth the drive.

I first came here right after it opened, and have started returning more regularly for takeout. They have a lot of options and everything I've tried has been very good. In particular, the portions are really large; I'm not a light eater, and yet when I order one of their entrees from here it's good for two dinners. I haven't yet figured out the ideal spice level. For me, "mild" is not quite spicy enough but every other level I request is too spicy. What you should take away from this is that they don't skimp on the spicy, which a lot of people will like! As I type this (November 2020) it's still pretty abnormal to go eating in restaurants, but their dining room is open, normal hours and everything, and it's nicely decorated and always very clean. I live only a few blocks from here, so as a local resident I can confidently say that this is BY FAR the nicest restaurant in the neighborhood. I really like that I can get such good pad thai so close to home. If you're looking for a nice place to eat around here you won't be disappointed; if you're looking for a takeout option, they're consistently high quality in that area as well.

The Pad Thai is great and can get really spicy. I am mostly good about handling spice so the first time I ordered it I got the second most spicy option (which is what I usually go for at Thai restaurants). It was incredibly spicy. I was sweating and I couldn't eat it all at once, so I can't imagine how spicy the spiciest option would be. I went back a couple weeks later and got the same thing but one spice level down and it was perfect.

This place is a north end miracle. The prices run fair. The interior decor looks amazing. The tastes are bold and food comes out fast. It's also right on the bus line! However, you WILL NEVER RECEIVE A REFILL here even though they're offer fountain beverages. The waiters himhaw on that part. That's the only aspect you won't get bang for your buck.

When I lived here I would come here every two week you are and will be missing out if you do not come here!! Ps love ya Ben!

I just love them. I usually would get this whenever I'm craving for noodle. You get the perfect amount of everything and good amount of chicken. Very good for the price too.

I keep coming back here wondering why my gf likes this place. This is actually the 4th times I've been here and I've come down to a conclusion that this'll be my last time here. The staff are very friendly, but if you fine in, they're not the best at giving service, and the food, I'm just not very into. It. One of my best friend is Thai, so i eat a lot of thai food, therefore i am very picky when it comes to thai dishes. I went in today and got a paneng, lime chili fish, thai style papaya salad, and a yum thalay. Let's start off with the Paneng, it's more or a red curry to me. Paneng is suppose to be a thick broth, but it was very liquidy, cannot taste the coconut or the aroma of a paneng dish. The lime chili fish was not bad.. It's supposed to be a very refreshing soup and they did just that. I did enjoy this dish. Before i ordered this fish dish, I originally wanted to order a Prik Nam Pla (Chili Sauce Fish), but he suggested they didn't have something like that because it wasn't an authentic dish. I did forgot the name but describe what it was. Thai papaya salad is suppose to be a refreshing sweet and sour dish but there were no flavors, all i could taste was the sweetness. I felt like they just shredded the papaya, put everything in there and then add sugar. I can't even taste the fish sauce or saltiness to the papaya salad. I think the most disappointing dish for me was the yum thalay. Its also a sweet and sour dish, but it was just salty. I had to remake the sauce at home and adjust the dish myself because it taste nothing like a yum thalay. But do give the business a try, might be for you. My friend does go here all the times.

Okay, why have I only been here once? It. Is. Great. Menu is huge and had more than the typical Thai place in the Twin Cities (from my experience). I loved the tofu panang curry. It was a more oily and thinner sauce than the liquid coconut type, but I was not mad. Ordered it HOT and they delivered. I suggest medium if you can't handle your heat. My friend got the khao soi and I tried some noodles and soup and it was delicious. I will definitely order that next time. It was a cross between curry and ramen aka best of both worlds. I will 100% be back.

The food was good and also their portions were decent. They have thai boat noodles (pork or beef)z

Looks like Rice Street is quickly becoming ground zero for great Thai restaurants - here is a brand new one that just opened a few months ago. I was told it's owned by the same folks that own Bangkok Thai on University Avenue. I got something to go, but was very impressed by this brand new space. The building went up over the past year and it even smells new. It has a big space downstairs for banquets and a huge dining room. There is a parking lot at the rear of the building. Another thing that is huge is their menu - it took me awhile to decide what I wanted to get! I decided on shrimp paenang curry, and brought some chicken satay and pad thai home for my son. We both agreed it is some of the best Thai food we've had, and we are Thai food freaks. Son got his pad thai medium spice and said it wasn't really spicy enough for him, but he's a spice freak so will order it hot next time. I intended to take a picture of my food but I was too hungry so I forgot, but I did manage to get a snap of the dining area. Please stop by and give this new place some lovin'.

Best place for authentic Thai dishes. I keep going back for the shrimp patties and the fried pork with dipping sauce (one of the BEST I've ever had) I always ask for an extra one lol you won't be disappointed :)

medium is definitely 4 on a scale of 0-5 . the khao man gai is pretty good. sticky rice definitely makes the laab tastes better .

My wife and I visited this place for her birthday dinner. I'm glad we did. Greeted right away with a smile. This building is brand spanking new. Everything was clean. Gotta be same owners as Bangkok Thai Deli, same menu We started with the fried pork with dipping sauce. It was tender/crispy and very tasty. She got the Namtok beef, it too was good. Many spices and herbs, it comes with cucs/lettuce/cabbage and a thai chili. I got the stuffed wing panang curry. It was good. Now I can visit this thai place without going to Uni. I must say what the terminator say, "I'll be back!"

Very clean , service is prompt and food is delicious They have nice appetizers also Curry ,Boat noodle soup And so much more. Once a week eat here and never get tired .

I'm giving it a 4 because the food took a bit long but once it was out it was delicious. They served the Laos version of papaya salad which for some it is necessary to taste some crab paste with your spicy salad. The flat stir fry noodle had a lot of chicken meat and was full of flavor. The chicken satay came with 2 sauces and was also delicious. The pho broth was okay. They also serve mock duck and tofu for vegetarians.

We stopped here a while ago, since we were in the area, looking for a good place to eat. I liked how you either enter either through the front or back door. I just have to say that looking for the menu I never saw so many good choices on so many different pages. So I decided to just stick to one page or I would never be able to order. Finally I decided on the mock duck with stir fry veggies. There was just so much to my food that it was wise to have half for dinner and the rest either later at home or even the next day. Of course as we were heading out what struck me was not only how busy the place was, but how friendly everybody was. I liked how they really did have a lot of seating for big groups of people. I plan on going back soon, to try a different menu item, maybe on a different page.

When you ask for spicy, they definitely deliver. When I go with my family, where everyone has a high spice tolerance, we leave sweating. Pad thai is saucy with the right amount of egg. It's tangy and once you have it, no other pad thai can really live up. The crab fried rice is excellent, I'm not sure what kind of rice they use, but there's a great bite to it. They don't skimp on the crab either, it's shredded and plentiful in each bite. The Panaeng is full of peppers and flavor, a little with rice goes a long way it's so flavorful! I really don't think there's better Thai food.

Delicious! Had Pad-Phed Duck and a pork pad Thai. Both very delicious. Ordered both medium, duck was spicy and pad Thai more mild, but balanced each other well! Had egg rolls and cream cheese wontons for appetizer....both really good! Easy parking, airy and sunny for lunch! We'll be back!

The special pho broth was a bit on the bland side. Very plain. But the portion size is good and good amount of meat. The eggplant dish is delicious. Great flavors. The steamed mussels are literally steamed mussels. Nothing much to it.

The restaurant itself had excellent décor and was extremely neat and clean. It's a very well decorated Thai restaurant with your traditional gold embossed pots, statues, and paintings and a very nice stone flooring. The service was also decently good.! The menu was expansive (maybe too many items actually)... so great variety! I came here with a friend to catch up and just hang out.. I ordered the Seafood Hot Plate which was like a collection of oven baked then pan grilled calamari, snow crab legs (shell on), mussels, and shrimp on top of napa cabbage and glass noodles.. All mixed and cooked with a a red sauce that tasted a lot like kimchi. It was interesting.. I'm not a kimchi fan, but it wasn't bad.. Served on a fajita-like cast iron plate. My buddy ordered their Nam Tok?; it's like a Thai fried rice with ginger.. it wasn't bad, but wasn't very good. It was a bit chunky and I totally did not taste the love. No lime flavor, not much nam flavor, a bare taste of ginger... We also ordered another dish that was like stir fried chicken in a tomato/red/chili sauce... light sauce a but liquidy, but not really stand-out good either... A friend though (the one who recommended Krungthep) did recommend their currys as "Go-to". A nice hang-out spot with good food variety, but I'd be hesitant to go back.. :/

The best Thai restaurant in Saint Paul. It rivals that of Ruam Mit Thai. Their Pad See Ew is perfectly made everytime. I also like to get the Walleye in basically any sauce. With a menu like this it's hard to go wrong. Each dish is great in it's own way.

Food was 5 stars, service was easily a 1, so I guess that evens out to a 3. We came on a rainy Sunday afternoon for soup. Our usual Thai places were closed and we were excited about Krungthep's good reviews. We were seated and greeted right away and ordered hot tea, cream cheese wontons and Thai beef jerky. Appetizers didn't come out until after the main course, tea took 10 minutes to bring to the table and hadn't even been steeped. When we asked where our apps were, the waitress responded, "you didn't say that", and we had to gently remind her another waitress took our app/tea order and she took our main course. It's on them to figure it out if we're going to have two waitresses. No apology, no comp'd app. So that was annoying. The food is amazing. It's fresh, hot, flavorful and spicy. I will definitely come back, but hoping they burton up their customer service.

This place is the sister of bangkok thai deli that's on university. The only thing different about this place is that the inside looks more like a restaurant and actually looks nice inside. Bangkok thai deli still resembles the burger king that used to be there. Food wise and all and menu is still the same as bangkok deli. So if you like bangkok deli then I suggest to go here and give it a try. Oh by the way, this place is less busy than bangkok deli so go before people start finding out lol

My family and I came here for dinner on a week night, and it was great! We arrived around 6/7pm and we it was a quiet night for dinner for us, which my mom really enjoyed. Compared to their other restaurant, this place is spacious and a little better with appearance. We were greeted and seated right away by the friendly staff. We recieved our water and food in a timely manner. There was no wait at all for our dining, which is great. We ordered their Lao style papaya salad, raw and cooked laab, sticky rice, fried pork belly with chinese broccoli, pineapple fried rice and curry; it was enough food for the 5 of us to eat and bring home with left overs. My parents, who are picky eaters, really enjoyed the food here so that's a major plus! I would definitely reccomend this place for people to try if they want some thai food in St. Paul! Will definitely come back here again for some food

They had really good food. I had no idea it was there until I started googling Thai restaurants. Definitely go back.

Great customer service, welcoming, refill drinks and this place have yummy thai food. I am looking forward to come back and try their other dishes. Was not disappointed at all.

This place is a hidden gem for sure! The food is ridiculously good and although the options may seem overwhelming you can't go wrong. I highly recommend the pad Thai spiced up and the red curry! Food comes out pretty fast as well

Love the seasoned pork leg! If you are not a big fan of spicy food like me, you might want to hold the Thai chili because they can really burn your throat! Other than that, everything is good!

Been here once and ordered from here a few times. Their curry is amazing, I loved the pad see ew I had and they have the best pad thai I've tasted in the entire metro. My favorite thai restaurant.

It's not the traditional thai restaurant I'm use to. Their beef pho is meatballs only not beef. The pho itself lacked common ingredients. The chicken fried rice was ok. Maybe I set my expectations too high, then again, maybe Eastside Thai has the best Thai food in St Paul. Nevertheless, I spent $41 and it wasn't worth it. I won't be returning. When you know better you do better. However, the atmosphere was pleasant.
