" I was fortunate enough to dine at Kinara Thai during lunch hours. The quick service and tasty food made it an excellent choice for those on a break. The tom kha soup was refreshing, and I was pleasantly surprised by how it had maintained its authentic flavors. A wonderful gem worth visiting more often! " (*Curated Review*)

" An honest review would say that while the food was good, I found it not as memorable as hoped. The rice dishes were good but average compared to other Thai spots in Portland. The service remained friendly and accommodating. It’s a nice little place to dine in, but I think they could elevate their dish presentations a bit more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kinara Thai has quickly become my go-to for Thai food. The atmosphere is charming, making it a nice place for a date night. I thoroughly enjoyed the coconut shrimp appetizer and Pad Thai - both were fantastic. The staff always greet you with a smile, making it a comfortable dining experience. Do try the mango sticky rice for dessert; it’s divine! I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great Thai food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rice dishes can often be underwhelming, but Kinara's basil fried rice blew me away with its flavors! I enjoyed the cozy decor of the restaurant—it’s a great spot for casual dining. The staff were warm and welcoming, adding to the experience. Portions, however, were a bit smaller than I'd expected for the price, but I left satisfied nonetheless. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an overall good experience at Kinara Thai. The food was solid, especially the Pad Thai, but I felt it could use a touch more flavor. However, the service was excellent; our server was very friendly and attentive. The place is small but warm and inviting. I would likely return and give the menu another try. " (*Curated Review*)

" Kinara Thai is simply amazing! With such a diverse menu and a selection of vegetarian options, there’s something for everyone. The flavors were spot on—the drunken noodles were perfect, just spicy enough to tantalize my taste buds. The staff were also quite welcoming, making the experience even more delightful. I can't wait to come back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to stop by for a quick bite after a long day and was really pleased. The Pad Kee Mao was just what I needed—full of flavor and spice. The interior was cozy and perfect for a quiet evening. I truly appreciated the service that didn’t rush me even during the busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)
