"In a city as food-centric as Portland, Kuno is the quintessential success story: what started as a pop-up and food truck purchased from an already established Thai restaurant is now a brick-and-mortar serving exceptional food. In this particular case, Kuno showcases owner Nick Yee’s family recipes for stellar Southeast Asian dishes like char kway teow and crab wontons. But menu items like the Asian fried chicken sandwich and nasi goreng fried rice, plus cocktails like a Basil Gin Smash, are also winners at this cozy Bayside restaurant." - Alana Dao

We were visiting Portland from Virginia and on our walk back to Airbnb. We stumbled upon this exceptional cool looking hidden gem, and it’s absolutely worth a try! We ordered the crab wontons and spicy chicken wings—both were fantastic. We also had a few drinks, all amazing! The atmosphere is sooo cozy, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed night out. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy great food and drinks, this is it. The service was awesome, and our server was incredibly friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!

Amazing hidden gem! We were looking for something tasty & affordable and Kuno definitely exceeded our expectations! Excellent atmosphere and great music playing with the friendliest host. Limited menu means they’ve perfected their craft— We ordered the green curry & ground chicken basil dish and both were soooo delicious. Highly highly highly recommend!

Amazing and quaint. The service was prompt but also kind. The food was delicious and plentiful. I'm glad I was brought to this place, I will absolutely come back to try the other homemade dishes.

This place was so nice to eat dinner at, I was surprised there was nobody at the bar on a Friday night, this place is under rated gem, cocktails well so good, food was delicious & server/host was very nice!

Every dish I tried at this place was excellent, and more importantly, delightfully unique. I've eaten at scores of Thai restaurants, and I saw familiar dishes on this menu, but each plate was different from anything I've had before. The green curry in particular was incredible - spicy and sweet, yet not in the typical overbearing way. I don't know if this place is authentic, but it certainly is some of the best Thai food I've had.

Their overall menu is very limited and even in that they only have 1 vegetarian dish that is the green curry vegetable with rice. The quantity of the green curry is good for two but you might need to order more rice ($). But the green Thai vegetable curry is one of the best I have tasted in the last few years. The customer service was not very good and felt that the waitress was unnecessarily rude.

Perfect date night! We happened upon Kuno accidentally (as we were trying to get into a different spot for dinner). We could not have been more pleased. We sat at the bar - which had a cool vibe - well appointed and great chill tunes 🎶. The place was empty on a Monday (accept for the many to go orders), and we could not have been more comfortable. The food was delicious, with a beautiful presentation. Stop in at Kuno - you will be happy! Cheers 🍻 Vern

Just tried their chicken sandwich yesterday. The chicken was very crunchy. The Asian slaw was a nice touch, along with the chili mayo. Definitely one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had. Now I want another one. Lol. The fries are cooked well. None of them were soggy. The beef skewers were tender and well cooked, and the sauce was nice. You can park in the Congress Plaza and it's about a 3 minute walk. Might come back for their Pad Thai or sandwich again.
