They never disappoint! Spicy shrimp soup (S1) & cashew chicken (H6) are our favorites, but we've never had a dish we didn't like.
Excellent beyond words The food is delicious service is consistent only excellent We drive from the Woodlands once a quarter to eat here for lunch Always worth the drive
I have been coming here for over 13 years. Still the Best Thai restaurant in Houston to me. Every dish has its own unique flavor and presentation. It's not like other Thai restaurants that I been to that use the same spices and noodles on every dish combination. This place is truly family owned and run. I consider it authentic cuisine. There was no wait to sit. Dine-in was available when I went on 4/30/21.
This place is a hole in the wall that attracts lots of people. The food is delicious and the service is fast. They make sure to tend to you and take care of your needs.
I don’t remember if I’ve reviewed this place before so forgive me if I’ve reviewed it twice. This place is excellent! The menu is not complicated with a thousand options- they do a simple, delicious menu. I love the subtlety of the flavors- a hint of lemon, a touch of ginger. None of it is insanely spicy, it’s just right!
-Outstanding Food-
This place is somewhat of a Houston secret restaurant, located behind a few buildings. The Kanomwan is by far the utmost best Thai cuisine I can say that I’ve had the experience to enjoy. The mass variety of flavors surpasses the awesome array of dishes one could find at the Kanomwan. If your looking for an authentic, spice vs favor vs pure awesomeness, The Kanomwan.... is your spot!
Food is very good, but if you have an appetite, one dish may not be enough. Had the Nur Pad Nam Mun Hoi (beef with onions and mushrooms with oyster sauce). Place is not easy to see from Telephone Road. Follow the signs near the intersection with the fire station to find it.
I recommend satae whenever you get the chance to enjoy it. They have a good peanut sauce, and I appreciate there freshly done vegetables. The food is good, and the service was excellent. Not the best Thai food I have had but enjoyable. The superb service and unlimited rice with our order while eating family-style bumps this up to 5 stars for me.
Kanomwan was just reopening, not all of the menu was available yet, but no matter, the Thom Ka Gai soup was as great as ever, the chili shrimp and Pad Thai wonderful. I've been coming here more than 20 years now and it's still the most authentic Thai food in town. One of my favorite restaurants. ❤
I love Kanomwan. Good Thai food and close location to my work. It's always packed in this place and that's because the food is good.
They are BYOB at 5pm.
PRICES
Well they have gone up. Years back when the "Thai Nazi" was alive you could walk out with a full belly for 10 bucks.. Now you end up walking out with a full belly but a much lighter wallet. I had the egg rolls the H1 and water and paid 13.21.
PARKING
Small lot shared by a couple of other businesses but because Kanomwan is in the back of the lot, you should be fine in looking for a spot.
HOURS - IMPORTANT
They open for lunch from 11 - 1:30, they close to prepare for dinner and reopen at 5pm.
FOOD
The food is great. The egg rolls always come out piping hot and so does the food. The H1 (spicy Thai basil with chicken) and the Sweet and Sour Thai dish is good. The Only thing I hate is that the water come in bottles and you get charged per bottle.
The dish that I always get is SUPER SPICY so I go through a ton of water and honestly end bringing my own because I hate drinking from bottles.
Been going here for years even before the new digs. Sad the Old Man is no longer there, he was an exceptional guy. Very funny! He is and will be missed! The food is as good or better than I have had even in Thailand. Authentic and delicious. Great place and will continue to return.
Best Thai food in town. Bold and spicy flavors in all dishes. Lots of game and exotic meats - from frogs to alligators. Fast and quick service too- don't know how they serve such amazing food so fast!
