Pai Kin Kao 80 River Street, Cambridge, MA 02139

"Amazing little place! Staff were super and the food was amazing. Can’t wait to go back!"

"I had the Guay Tio Haag (Thai street foods). It was delicious! Had a lot of flavor. My daughter had the Tonkotsu ramen which she enjoyed. My mom had the green curry. She didn't really like the green curry because it didn't have enough flavor. My husband had the Pad Thai, which he didn't enjoy in comparison to other pad Thai dishes he's had elsewhere. However, I would return for the dish I had."

"Pai Kin Kao is the perfect neighborhood Thai place. The service is great and surprisingly quick, the food is fresh and delicious, and the portions are generous. Don’t sleep on the wonderfully sweet Thai iced tea, the crispy scallion pancake with tamarind dipping sauce, or the spicy and creamy khao soi, which I recommend getting with fried tofu."

"I was drawn here due to the high ratings and proximity to where I was at that moment. Am Asian and lived in Asia most of my life and I love my Thai food, especially Pad Thai. This however had to be the worst Pad Thai I’ve ever had. I try not to leave negative reviews - but I felt that this eatery has grossly misrepresented how this noodle dish should be. Everything is just wrong about it, from the type of noodle to the taste. It was overly eggy and sticky, and too sweet. As I was leaving, I realised the kitchen is fully staffed by Latinos. So no, this is not an authentic Thai food place. — Update: left this review and was accused by the owner for being racist. How is my review racist? What could be worse than culturally misappropriating a dish and passing it off as genuine Thai?"

"Great food! Enjoyed most every dish. The tofu larb made tofu taste the best ever! Pad see ew and kee Mao were great. Comment re the street food noodles was there were not enough noodles. Otherwise very happy here"
