“ Nice food. Quick service. Feels like in Thailand to some extent:) not a European style cafe :) ”
“ They have really good lunch menu at a cheap price, but my favorite thing about the restaurant is their chili peppers. It is actually really spicy and delicious. Another plus about the restaurant is that they serve water for free, which is not seen in any other restaurants I have been. ”
“ Wow.. Great Thai Restaurant in a cute area of Vienna ???????????????? I love my food and I ended up eating at Thai Isaan Kitchen, 3 days in a row. I guess I was craving good Thai food and the restaurant hit my spot. It’s also the perfect spot for solo eating if you’re alone. The owner run restaurant and takeaway is small and cosy. You sit whilst facing the kitchen and bar area. The staff are all Thai with positive vibes, so I had a good laugh for the three times I ate here. Portions are pretty big and the flavours are authentic (I grew up in Bangkok so can confirm). The locals in Vienna also know about this place because it was packed every night I ate there. ⭐ I recommend the Khao Pad Moo (fried rice with pork) which was spot on, you can also get this with other proteins if you don’t do pork. Thank you Thai Isaan team for the very yummy Thai food! ขอบคุณ ********** Hey fellow foodies, if you enjoyed reading my review and also found the food at Thai Isaan Kitchen tasty, feel free to hit the like button to let me know ********** ”
“ A small Thai restaurant with Thai people working in the kitchen. Located in a less touristic part of the city, it is a place for an authentic Thai dining in a casual environment m. This is definitely not a high-end restaurant with refined Thai cuisine. You order at the counter and pay at the same counter when you leave. We ordered Thai beef salad and Nam Tok Mu (pork). Nam Tok Mu was delicious as it tasted similar to what I would get in Thailand, but Thai Beef salad (Yum nua) wasn’t as authentic as I had expected. Maybe they made it milder for locals. In any case, you will not be hugely disappointed with the taste of their food as long as the kitchen is run by Thais. Their portions are generous, and the prices are really reasonable for the amount food you get. I’d love to go back to this restaurant even alone as its ambience is less intimidating for a single person dining. That is right. I found their staff were very friendly, too. A Thai lady serving tried to talk to me in Thai language, which I thought was a great gesture. Too bad I could only communicate with her very little with my broken Thai. ”
“ Very family friendly. Food is great and full of flavor. If your American it might be a little spicy (which I like). Chicken, duck, all full of flavor. ”
“ The best authentic Thai food in Vienna. Truly a hidden gem in the 6th district. Daily lunch deals are so worth it! I usually get It to go, 1 portion serves as 2 meals. ”
“ Milk Tea, Pad Thai, and Green Curry were good. The fish dish was not impressive. It's quite hot in summer, even if you sit outside. With the price we paid, I expected a little bit more on the atmosphere. The service was nice. Self-service. ”
“ What a fantastic experience! As soon as we walked in, we knew we were in for something special. The owner, originally from Yasothon in Isaan, Thailand, brings authentic, flavorful Isaan dishes to Vienna, and it truly shows in the food. My Thai wife and I both agreed that the flavors were spot-on, and we loved the chance to chat with the owner about the dishes and his background. If you’re craving genuine Thai Isaan cuisine in Vienna, this place is a must-visit. The combination of delicious food and warm hospitality made for an unforgettable meal! Highly recommend! ”
