We went for lunch at it was quiet. Great interior. The tumyum is a bit different from what “tumyum” is usually like (more watery) but it was still good. The padthai was also abit to sweet (sweet soy sauce) from our liking but it was also really good. Ended up finishing everything. The crying tiger 10/10. Loved it. Service was really nice and very initiative (whenever we finish a dish and our water finished they immediately took action). Loved it

A Truly Wonderful First Visit to Ko Thai During Thanksgiving.

This was my first time visiting Ko Thai during the Thanksgiving season, and it turned out to be an exceptional experience. The restaurant is beautifully and elegantly decorated—clean, organized, and spacious. The layout includes indoor seating, outdoor seating, and an upstairs dining area that can even be arranged for private gatherings or special events. I chose to sit inside, where the bar area was not only stylish but also very inviting.

The food exceeded my expectations. The crispy cream cheese appetizer was delicious, and the Yazo Thon Roasted Duck served with rice noodles was outstanding—the duck was tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. For dessert, the mango sticky rice was amazing, not too sweet, and beautifully prepared. The cocktails were refreshing, creatively decorated, and you could really see the bartender’s attention to detail in every drink.

The service was excellent. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and enthusiastic from the moment I walked in. The owner was friendly and made the atmosphere even warmer and more enjoyable. I truly appreciate choosing this restaurant to celebrate such an important holiday.

I am very impressed with Ko Thai and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!😊

One of the best restaurants I’ve been in DFW area! Highly recommend. The owner is incredibly kind and attentive. I ate the crying tiger sirloin steak, tom yum soup, the duck, the red snapper, and the cowboy bowl. Would order everything again! The decor is so beautiful, with giant statues in the dining area. Every single cocktail was stunning, and tasted impeccable. Will be coming back again and again. Best Thai food in Fort Worth!

Really enjoyed this elevated take on Thai Cuisine. Fairly new place on Magnolia was just the ticket for something different for this birthday girl. The restaurant gives an elegant vibe with dining available downstairs, upstairs (elevator available), and on the patio.

The waitstaff was attentive but not overbearing. I think our server was a little new, but he did a good job. I really enjoyed my go-to Pad Thai for the most part. I'm fairly picky about my tofu and it was a little overdone for how I like it, but the rest of the dish was delicious. We also had the roasted duck breast - and then the mango sticky rice was a nice change for a birthday dessert

We were really looking forward to trying this Thai restaurant, as we’re frequent Thai food eaters and love exploring new spots. Unfortunately, our experience was a bit disappointing.

We ordered takeout for dinner, and while the staff was friendly and the food was ready on time, several things fell short. The chicken fried rice lacked flavor and needed more seasoning or sauce. We were happy the rice to-go container was full. The yellow curry had a delicious flavor, but it was missing the carrots that were listed on their online menu. On top of that, the portion was only half full even though it cost $17, which didn’t feel worth the price.

The Thai tea was excellent — creamy and flavorful — but it was filled with mostly ice, so there wasn’t much tea to enjoy. I should have asked for light ice.

Overall, while the flavors were mostly enjoyable, the lack of flavor in the fried rice, missing ingredients in the curry, and small portions made it a bit of a disappointing experience. We may try it again, but not sure if it stands out enough to pay the extra amount comparatively.

I will say just walking into the restaurant to pick up the food, it is a lovely decorated restaurant and the staff was kind.

My wife and I dined here this evening for a little date night. We loved everything about the joint, from the decor and service to the food and beverage options.

We started with the Fried Tofu Sticks, served with a sweet and sour dip. She then had the Fried Tofu plate with garlic sauce, white rice, and veggies. She loved it! And I ordered two apps for my dinner: Chicken Satay (with a soy peanut sauce) and Curry Puff (with their signature sweet and sour dip). We had ample leftovers.

We will definitely return to try other items!

Beautiful cozy restaurant with excellent service. Prices are standard although the vibe would make you think you were about to pay for it!

Really near upstairs that you take via elevator.

We had their Garlic Chicken Thai Rice, Yellow Curry with Tofu, and Tom Yum Soup. Everything was absolutely delicious except the Tom Yum Soup. Not the best I’ve ever had and only had a single lemongrass. Luckily my daughter liked the soup so not removing a star, but i was not a fan.

The rest of the meal was great.

Service was excellent. Friendly and Always available and never pushy or overbearing.

It is a smaller restaurant so i advise to make reservations if you go Thursday to Sunday.

I'm a big fan of Thai food, I had a chef friend recommend this restaurant so I decided to try it out. The atmosphere is the first thing that hits you, it's very calm and it pulls you in to what you will experience when you eat here. We started with curry puffs, they were warm , crispy , and delicious. And we finished with red and green Thai curry on the spiciest level , it's was very rich in flavor. The food was amazing and my new favorite Thai food spot in DFW, Spice down the road will have some serious competition. All of the cutlery and plates were very pretty and matched the ambiance. Also the restrooms are very clean. And the staff was very kind and respectful even as you walk about.

As a chef I will definitely be back.

Being a Thai food lover, I have had many different styles of Thai food. Ko Thai does an okay job captivating the Thai flavors but there are a few things that they can do to make it a more authentic experience. Firstly, we had to send the tom yum soups back from the overwhelming sweet and sugary taste in the soup, also having a very strong basil flavor instead of using cilantro. Our waiter was very kind and let us know the cooks agreed the soup was too sweet. I got the highest level of spice that was very mild at best. And I think traditional paid thai noodles would suit the great flavor the pad thai had. The papaya salad had a muted flavor favoring sweetness also, not sure if it was missing fish sauce or lime. Ambience of the restaurant is nice despite it running very warm inside, I was sweating at some points. Also being seated at wet table and having to ask a worker to wipe it down was surprising as the hostess saw the large water puddle on the table. It was an okay experience but I will be driving into Dallas if i’m craving a more authentic Thai dinner.

First time coming to this new Thai restaurant. I am such a big fan of Thai food and the many tastes it consists of. Having to arrive, we were greeted at the door and were immediately seated. They gave us time to look over the menu and gave us waters in the meantime. I will say our server was very punctual and gave us the best customer service. The food was very flavorful and came out in a timely manner. Thank you so much for giving my sisters and I a very good experience!
