Khob Khun Thai Food - Coquitlam

Hole-in-the-wall mom and pop eatery that serves delicious, flavourful food. However the service was a bit slow and many tables were left uncleared for the during of our meal. Most likely was just short of hands. The service was friendly and there was asmall parking lot out front.

There is a saying... don 't judge a book by its cover ; this would definitely apply to Khob Khun Thai Cuisine! The exterior is very unassuming and slightly tucked in, easy to drive past. We got take-out and were super impressed with the quality of thedelicious meal. The Mango salad was outstanding as was the Massaman curry; for our taste buds level, Mild was just right,Medium was spicier then we had expected. Many Veggie/Tofu options. Excellent quality food and competitive pricing.

Not really a big fan of Thai food but I'd say this place was decent for me in terms of taste. The seafood pad pong karee was pretty legit because it was a curry satay'd dish that used curry powder so the flavours were very dense but it was such a small portion that didn't equalize the price. Also ordered the khob khun Thai noodles with level 3 spice. The spice level for me was perfect since I was still able to taste it yet had right amount of heat. Flavour wise was a bit too salty. I felt like I needed plain rice to chase it. Won't be coming back as the price was not worth the portions. I understand times are tough but.... Ya no thanks!

Very tasty Thai food with plenty of vegan-friendly options. The restaurant itself is a fairly bare bones neighbourhood place, with 8-10 tables. They are quite vegan-friendly, even though it's not obvious from the menu. I came alone, so couldn't order that much variety. So, I grabbed the papaya salad $13; with the fish sauce removed to make it vegan) and the pad see ew with tofu $14; with the egg removed to make it vegan). I requested both items Thai spicy their max), and they packed a nice heat but was far from intolerable. The papaya salad was really nicely flavoured, with perfectly textured green papaya, green beans, a nice garnish of peanuts, and some rather low grade tomatoes. Really tasty. 4.5/5 The pad see ew wasn't the most impressive, but the noodles were nicely cooked and flavoured, with a rather measly portion of gai lan, tofu and carrot. The portion itself wasn't huge but the dish comes together. Solid enough. 4/5 Service was middling, but quick and accurate. I had to come up to pay the bill because the server was in back for a while. All in all, solid Thai food, especially for Coquitlam. Recommended.

I had the khao soi and the chicken satay. I absolutely love khao soi! It was my favourite dish when I was in Thailand and I don't see it at many restaurants here so I was really grateful to have it tonight! Felt like soul food! The inside of the restaurant is just like your typical little hole in the wall but the service is great! Really friendly staff! I want to have their mango sticky rice but they ran out of mangoes. That's ok, gives me an excuse to go back!
