We came here for lunch and had the chicken fried rice and satay chicken skewers. The portions were huge—an impressive amount of food per plate. Both the skewers and the fried rice were really good, and considering the quality, the prices are very reasonable. Seating is a bit limited given the location, but we’ll definitely be back!
After visiting Thailand, I’ve been searching for food that tasted as good as what I tried there. The pad Thai took me straight back to Bangkok! Tasted exactly like a restaurant I had eaten at there! And the mango sticky rice is the best I’ve had in the UK so far. Would definitely recommend!

If you’re craving flavorful Thai dishes, Khao Gaeng Thai is worth checking out. We tried the Pad Thai with chicken and prawns—while the dish had a good mix of textures, it was a little on the sweeter side for our taste, though still enjoyable.🌿🌶 The prawns and chicken were fresh and well-cooked. Tom Kha with chicken was a comforting, creamy bowl of coconut goodness, with just the right amount of aromatic lemongrass and lime.🥥🍲A solid spot for a flavorful Thai meal if you’re in Leeds!

This is a great place to grab a quick and tasty lunch. The garlic and soy chicken stir fry was great, especially with the addition of a fried egg on top. I wasn't keen on the pork dumplings though, they didn't taste of much. Nevertheless, I've recommended this place to my friends and will return next time I'm nearby!
