Miami New TimesAugust 15, 2014Gin is the restaurant's signature booze, and peppers swim even in the cocktails. In the Killer B, Beefeater gin pairs with lemon juice and a syrup infused with white peppercorns and Thai bird chilies. Read more
Cristian VFebruary 17, 2015The interior design is cool. We had the chicken dumplings and the drunken noodles, and both were so tasty. Make sure to ask for a side of chili sauces. For dessert, order the sweet potato beignets.
Travel + LeisureSeptember 30, 2013The sister restaurant to the bourbon-and-bacon hit Yardbird Southern Table & Bar is done up like a Southeast Asian farmhouse and serves real Chiang Mai–style khao soi noodles in coconut-milk broth.
Emily HymesMarch 4, 2013Definitely try the burmese fresh noodle wrap. The duck is SO good. My friend got the eggplant with minced pork and loved it. My other friend got the shrimp, beware it might be very salty. great place!
Noelia MorenoAugust 1, 2013The noodle wraps are a must as is the duck. Portions are served family style. They don't serve an even amount of portions, so make sure that you share well. The coconut cake was a tasty surprise.- Miami New TimesApril 2, 2013The coconut and sesame pancakes ($14) are awesome. Freshly steamed bao buns with sausage and egg ($13) , and noodles with curry chicken ($14) are some of the other options on the menu.
- Miami New TimesJune 26, 2013Best of Miami 2013- Best New Restaurant: Khong River House. Dishes of Laos, Burma, Vietnam, and Thailand, indulge in food once rare to find in South Florida. Try their Vietnamese style crispy prawns. Read more
Natalie Guerra-ValdesApril 6, 2014One of the best restaurants in south Florida. The khao soi is amazing and so is the panang curry with short rib. As close as it gets to Thailand- EaterJuly 10, 2013Hands down the best Thai food in Miami and though you might have to work hard for that reservation, you won’t regret it. [Eater 38 Member]
- Miami New TimesNovember 17, 2014Yeo, already firmly planted in the kitchen, is said to be reworking some of Khong's best sellers, including the Northern Thai beef jerky, which is now being dried in a traditional preparation. Read more
Lynn PinaJune 17, 2013The crispy pork balls, green papaya salad and the spicy isan flank salad are awesome! Try the coconut wine. It's a great complement to the spicy food.
Vanessa QuinteroJanuary 19, 2013Seriously fantastic. Fun, sophisticated atmosphere, kind service, and great food. Try the Burmese fresh noodle wraps, crab fried rice, and Northeastern-style jungle curry!
Catherine AntaMay 17, 2014Everything was delicious from appetizer to dessert. I especially loved the papaya salad. And the staff was amazing! Make reservations!
Mark JacobsonMarch 23, 2013Service is great, and the food comes out fast. We substituted chicken for pork though and I bet the chicken came out of a can. Not a big curry fan, and the curry gets great reviews. Just no chicken- Cecile GeorgeAugust 11, 2013Great food. Any of the cocktails will rock your world. Try the Burmese egg noodle curry. And ask for Neve. She's out of this world for service.
Denise JacobsSeptember 13, 2013Love thai iced tea but can't eat dairy? Ask for it here with coconut milk instead of condensed milk. These nice folks will totally hook you up!
Nathalie HazimMarch 24, 2013The chicken bum it's great as an appetizer and you might think that the vegetable noodles are unflavored but it's amazing with amazing taste :)
Great gin drinks. Portions can be huge, but good is good overall. Be very specific about the order you want to get the food or else you will get everything at once. No bueno!
Sophie RieseJanuary 9, 2015Great food and a fun atmosphere. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is delicious.
Rick DavisAugust 6, 2014Best in class. The quality, selection and portions is unmatched. If you like Gin then prepare to go down the rabbit hole.
Try the papaya salad, Burma sticky rice, & Burma wrap! Yummmm! If it gets too spicy, they offer milk! Great service too. :)
Summer IzkovichSeptember 2, 2014Great place to eat at! You should def try their pop up chef that comes to the restaurant!
