Khao Soi Khun Yai

Reviewed By madtat

After reading the previous review I can only shake my head and laugh. Individuals rudely demanding “hurry up and give me my food!” To this I say “go home to your miserable existence. You have zero appreciation or respect for the cultural experience here. That off my chest, let me continue. I asked my taxi driver to take me to the best Khao Soi in Chiang Mai; he brought me here. This place is gated and situated just inside the Old City most. Outdoor seating under a large awning. Yes, outdoors, no a/c. If this is your priority you can join the previous cry baby at Micky D’s. The hours here are limited as is the seating. I didn’t take an accurate count but I would estimate seating for 100 max (give or take). When I arrived at 1:00 every seat was occupied. The line for patrons just arriving was short and went quickly. I wish I had a photo of the woman who took my order because she was such a sweetheart. As hard as she was working, running non stop, taking orders and clearing all the dirty dishes from tables, she kept smiling; An absolutely beautiful soul. Yes, I have a huge admiration and appreciation for an amazing attitude like this. The woman never stoped running, never stopped smiling. She took my order in under 5 minutes and found a seat for me. The table was full of dirty dishes (problem with this? Please see Micky D’s above) She retuned in roughly 10 minutes to clear the table. Another couple arrived and seeing me seating alone at the only available table, politely asked to join me; I of course said “please.” My fellow Americans and I made pleasant conversation, sharing stories of our eating adventures around the world. The average wait here on this day was 30 minutes. None of us had a problem with that. Why would we? We’re in Thailand, having an amazing experience. A young man delivered our food when it was ready. I had forgotten to request a drink. When I asked for a bottle of water as my food was delivered, the server smiled and brought it to me. Nothing but amazing attitudes here to compliment the amazing food. For those that opt, there is free water in a cooler, with cups provided, help yourself. The Khao soi was easily the best I’ve had in Thailand. There is a Thai restaurant in Vermont USA where the cook/owner, hailing from Chiang Rai serves up an equally delicious bowl, for a lot more money. I had a small bowl for $50 baht (1.60). Worth the excruciating 30 min wait . . . ? Uhm . . . Easily!!! You don’t pay until you’re finished, then you return to the counter. There is a large tip basket to the left. You just ate arguably the best Khao Soi on the planet while being waited on my Your very gracious, very modest hosts; And it cost you less than 2 bucks . Throw some change in that basket and return the smile you will get for your small gesture of appreciation. Life is good. Micky who ???

Three of us ate at Nimman Social one evening. The Khao Soi was very good (quite spicy), chicken burger good but had to take quite a bit off it which was skin, I know some people don’t mind eating that though. The waitress was lovely but the order the food came out in wasn’t great - chips first and were finished by the time two of the Khao Soi came out which was then almost finished by the time the chicken burger came out. Prices were reasonable, the restaurant is spacious and has a relaxed atmosphere. I recommend for Thai food but service wasn’t very good for us that evening.Dear BunchOfLilies,Greeting from Nimman Social team,Thank you for your great feedback to us, and please kindly accept our apologize which we made you feel uncomfortable while you were dining with us. We hope to see and welcome you back again.

We found Cooking Love by mistake just walking around Chiang Mai during the day. We had lunch and it was so delicious we went back another two times during our trip. We ate so much food, and it was all so good. The Tom Yum and Tom Kai Gai were the best! The waitress is lovely and friendly and the chef came out to the table a few times to see how the food was. Cooking love just has a great vibe, definitely recommend. Dear Customer,Million Thanks for your lovely review sir.Thank you very to falling love with our Thai food that we always paying attendtion to each disher.Anyway We have No concern why you said Tom Kha gai were the Best!

Reviewed By Remo D

This is the number one ranked Chinese restaurant on tripadvisor but it was one of the worst Chinese restaurants I have been to. The calamari were completely rubbery and overdone, the satay was pedestrian and unremarkable, the hot plate beef again totally overcooked and without flavour. Only the grilled beef was cooked on point, and the fried rice was good. Service was friendly but of the two ordered steamed rice none arrived until chased, when a mere one was delivered. Overall a very disappointing experience, will not go again. How this restaurant is ranked so highly I will never know. To cap it all every dish is massively overpriced.

The salmon ceviche was excellent. The grilled prawn pesto on spaghetti was a delight. The kaeng hang lay (northern-style beef curry) was tasty. The restaurant is nicely decorated but it is not air-conditioned. The service was friendly, but the staff spoke very little English. Also, it may be challenging to find a nearby parking place for a car.

We had the pleasure of enjoying the taster menu on our 25th Wedding Anniversary in October at this wonderful restaurant. The price of the meal was excellent and all courses absolutely delicious. The staff were excellent and it was lovely to meet Chef Boy, one of the nicest people we have ever had the pleasure to meet. As it was out anniversary they informed us when we arrived that as a gift all alcoholic drinks were complimentary which was a lovely surprise and even took us back to our hotel after the meal and gave us gifts made by Chef Boy's grandmother. It was the perfect place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and without doubt the best meal we have ever eaten in our lives. Thank you all so very much
