KHAP KHAP Thai Bistro - Nguyễn Thị Minh Khai

Bougie environment with very mid Thai food. Had the khao kluk kapi and mango sticky rice which were both okay.

Thai red tea with grass jelly and torched cream: 5/10 just way too sweet for me Grilled pork jowl: 10/10 Mango sticky rice: 10/10 Pad Thai with shrimp: 9/10 Thai-style Carbonara(?): 8/10 Fried spring rolls: 6/10 Spaghetti with green peppercorns and bacon: 9/10 Crab Curry with Rice Noodles: 4/10 Creamy prawns tom yum soup: 5/10 The rest: 4-5/10 Overall food is very spicy but the only hard to handle one was the crab curry. Drinks are overly sweet. The atmosphere and aesthetic of the restaurant is really nice. Most dishes were great

Everything here was just so sweet. I found myself yearning for the punchy heat and bright acidity that make Thai food so amazing. Every dish came with a lime wedge and trust me, we used every last one of them in a desperate attempt to cut through the sweetness but it didn't help much. We even asked for the food super spicy and somehow ended up with dishes that had absolutely no heat. The Pad Thai was the biggest offender, practically drenched in a cloyingly sweet sauce. It was so unfortunate because I know there was a good meal somewhere hiding underneath all that sugar. Oddly enough, the best thing we had was the raw salmon in the lotus root salad: rich, silky, and pleasantly fatty.

Exceeded my expectations a lot. The menu is well priced with big portions for such a beautiful space and attentive staff. All the food I ordered was delicious with Thai flavor and spice. The best Thai place I’ve tried in Vietnam with a refined but welcoming atmosphere.

Excellent place and service. Good food. Nice place very pleasant. Private room for large group so very happy experience.
