Pok Pok Wing

Post quarantine review: last visit October 2020 You're at the Cosmo and hungry and don't feel like overspending after losing at the tables? Pok Pok is an affordable option in all the fancy. Yes, you are paying about 10 to 20X Thailand prices for the same small street stall portions, w/ a lot more sugar and less spice, but it's the Strip and you shouldn't expect real value here unless you like being disappointed. My friends got some food here and I tried the chicken wing and the pad thai. Both were decent, smelled good, looked authentic, and probably better than Momofuku.

We were cruising around Cosmo, wanting to enjoy their swanky food court and hoping to grab one dish from a few different places. Hubby was immediately drawn to this place because of the pad Thai. So that’s what we got. I have to admit that we were nervous to start. First off, when hubby asked for extra peanut sauce, we were told they don’t use a peanut sauce. This made us worry that it wouldn’t have the flavor we wanted. Second, when it arrived, it wasn’t what we pictured - we order it with ground pork. But we could clearly see there was tofu and teeny tiny shrimps (are these the prawns listed on the menu??) as well.... Whatever. We gave it a try....and we loved it! Such great flavor and very satisfying. Also, it was the perfect size (pretty big in my opinion) to share and still have room for more. Hubby already knows we’re getting more of this pad Thai on our next visit to the Cosmo!

Finally got to try Pok Pok's wings and didn't have to travel to PDX again to do so. Been wanting to try it but was always worried the fish sauce would be the deal breaker but to my enjoyment it was not fishy at all. It comes in a huge portion if you are really hungry or enough to share. Similar to Korean fried chicken but with a Thai twist. Look for this place on the 2nd floor shopping area of the Cosmo near the Blvd bridges side of the resort.

My family dropped by Pok Pok after our late circus show. Even though they ran out of papaya salad, we got to try their Vietnamese wings and fried tofu. Both were very tasty. The wings were a tad bit salty but they were crunchy and delicious enough that we could overlook the salt. Definitely a place for a quick and affordable bite on the strip.

This place was OK... salty. The wings were a good flavour and definitely something good to try but if you don’t like a tonne of salt, these may not be for you. We had a pok pocket. It’s like a deep fried fluffy pastry with egg and chives in it. (I think there is suppose to be more in it but the only thing you can see and taste is egg). I would give this a 2. It was very bland, needed salt for sure 😂 The 3rd thing we ordered was the sweet pork with coconut rice and papaya salad. This again was ok. It was exactly what it reads, nothing unique about it. The papaya salad was so spicy, you can’t even eat it. Yikes. Too many other good things to try at the Cosmo to ever come back here. 😔

This restaurant is located in the Cosmopolitan right next to the Marquee club. I came strictly to try the wings. There was no wait, I walked up, placed my order, sat down and almost immediately my food was brought out. I wanted to order half spicy and half regular but they won't split them up that way. So, I opted for the spicy. They were delicious. The salad that came with it was good, too. If you like chicken wings then these are a great flavor to try.

Love Pok Pok in Portland, and love Pok Pok in Vegas. The wings and papaya salad are their signature dishes. Noticed they had a few items on their menu not available in their Portland restaurants but I didn't try them. Took about 7 minutes to order and get food on a Sunday evening, which made it even better.

Located in the Cosmopolitan Hotel- Block 16 Food Hall... Based out in Oregon, I've heard great things about this restaurant and I'm glad that Las Vegas has one. We ordered the Chicken Wing Special that included papaya salad and sticky rice along with Pad Thai. The chicken is sooo good. You can smell the fish sauce when it was served to us..I will say one of my favorite Thai wings. The Pad Thai noodles was also cooked perfectly. Not overcooked or mushy with sauce. The flavors were also delicious. Great menu selections. I will visit the Oregon locations hopefully soon.
