“ Food was some of the best we've had! We loved everything we tried. My favorite was the orchid chicken. Ambiance was nice and relaxing. Reasonable prices. Cocktail menu needs a lot of work. Biggest thing keeping from 4 stars... we made a reservation and got to the restaurant and they said they didn't have it and that they don't check their online reservations. Would've been extremely irritating on Christmas Eve had they not been able to still seat us. Service was a little slow- but the staff was small and working hard with a busy restaurant. ”
“ I was in Kansas City from early October until mid December 2024 and most nights when I'd get back to the hotel I'd just order delivery. Thai Orchid quickly made my short list of places to order from. In particular I would order their Laab with chicken. It took me a bit of searching through the local Thai places until I found one that served Laab (sometimes spelled Larb) and I couldn't have been more happy with it! I would generally order Hot or Extra Hot and it was always very enjoyably spicy for my preferred spice levels, which is very much on the high side. This wasn't the closest restaurant, Thai or otherwise, to my hotel which was near the airport on KCs north side. Even still the delivery was always fresh, hot and delicious. Highly recommended if you like Thai food that isn't Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles or (Red, Yellow, Green, Massaman) curry. I mean that stuff might be really good here as well but that's not the kind of Thai food I like so I don't know. ”
“ Great Thai spot with various selections. Came here for restaurant week and it did not disappoint. Many dishes with various proteins, love the seating and inside Vegan friendly ”
“ Thai orchid is great but DO NOT use GRUB HUB- if something goes wrong with your order they will not fix it, even if the restaurant is willing to. ”
“ The basil wings were delicious and chicken pad thai was packed with flavor! Service was good! ”
“ Came to check this place out because I was visiting my friend in KC, and we were craving some Thai food. I always order drunken noodles (pad kee mao) to judge a Thai place. I also got a Thai tea as well. The food was pretty good, and the portion was big enough for me to take home some leftovers. We came on a Monday night, and it wasn't too crowded. ”
“ Don't skip the Tom Yum Soup! Absolutely delicious Thai food. We went on a Saturday night and they had plenty of tables. I ordered the thai iced tea and it was so good and plenty sweet. We started with crab rangoon with this incredible dipping sauce. Then we each had a small Tom yum soup. The flavors mix so well together. Then we got pad Thai. Generous portions with plenty to take home. They just started a new rewards program where you get $10 off after every $125 spend. As if we needed another reason to come back! ”
