Kiin in Toronto

Like in Seinfeld, they can take a reservation, but they cant hold it. Reservation was made via phone 2 months prior to planned date. Arrived 10 minutes early to be told they couldnt find the reservation, but if we waited 30 minutes they should be able to get us in. Its impractical to wait in the establishment as there is no where to go and the entry area is very small. Ended up leaving very unsatisfied with the experience.

The service, the atmosphere and most importantly the food was outstanding here. The food was a burst of flavors in your mouth. Every dish was incredible. I cant say enough of their tasting menu. I had the regular tasting menu.

Went there for dinner. Had their 7 course tasting menu and it was out of this world. Out server, Maria was so good with providing the low-down on each of the courses. She was really friendly and genuine. The food was mind blowing. The first couple of courses we were worried if wed be full by the end of it as they portions were one-bite size but as the courses progressed, we were getting full by the 5th and 6th course. By the end we were stuffed, happy and left with what felt like a warm hug with the finishing course. Highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: They accommodate Halal

Awesome food, beverages and staff!! Great meal before a show. Give yourself 2 hours to fully enjoy this tasting menu.

Mindblowing

Exceptional services with delicious food, the music tone can be more relaxing for the late evening dining

The service was SUPER SUPER SLOW. It took us more than three hours for a seven-course tasting menu. We arrived at 7 PM, but it wasn t until 8:30 PM one and half hour later that we received the third course, which was just an egg custard. Essentially, it took them that one and half hour to serve two small one-bite snacks! By 9 PM, we finally got the main course. It was just AWEFUL waiting there and starving for one and half hour. What made it worse was that the restaurant wasn t even busy; there were empty seats all around us. It s baffling how they could be so slow with no clear reason. The wait was excruciating, and the experience was absolutely awful. Would not recommend.

Met up with a friend for Sunday lunch, decor on point, staff are super friendly and food was good.

Very cute restaurant but the food was not it, service was maybe a little less than ok and way overpriced for the dishes that you get. From the 7 course menu, 6 of the 7 courses tasted only like coconut. The vegan menu felt like that they did not put any energy in trying. We all had a weird stomach feeling when getting home. We were expecting way more from this place from getting the recommendation from amex and also looking at the menu (which changed after the reservation) and Instagram.

Amazing food and experience. The. Bucha-Pag cocktail was one of the best I ve had in a long time.

On the pricier side but the taste and service makes up for it. Would certainly return. Every dish was perfect.

Enjoyed their 7-course tasting menu and was seated at the chefs table. Though we were asked to wait 45 minutes after our initial reservation time and was seated at the bar, enjoyed our time anyhow.

This place is wonderful. The courses and flavors all hit so well. The elephant mango sticky rice was one of the cutest and tastiest desserts I have had in a while. You will be full after indulging in the chef s tasting menu! The service was so friendly and outstanding. We sat at the chef s counter and had great conversations with the staff and even Chef Regular. I look forward to visiting again.

This is the most exquisite Thai food Ive ever had in Toronto. The ambiance is very upscale, and each dish is presented in a unique way. There are several sets to choose from, and my favorite is the dessert, which includes something like mini taro balls. Its incredibly delicious, and I absolutely loved it!

For the last two weekends I went to Kiin to have weekend brunch. I first went here to have the dinner tasting menu with my friend who was visiting and I was so impressed by the taste and presentation of food. The flavours were really diverse and play well together. I then went back with my mom and now twice with my sister and friends as well! I also always get the Thai hand pulled and Khao Soi Pad Haeng. I also tried the Khao Moo Grob Kua Prik Klua and Gaeng Phed Kor Moo Yang which were both also very yummy! The dessert, especially the new mango sticky rice dessert is great.

This is the second time we enjoyed the u course tasking menu. First time was in 2022 before they became Michelin listed. In short, food, taste and attention to detail was better in 2022. Price went up from $90 to $125. It was good food, but did not live up to the standards and excitement we experienced in 2022. Service by Maria was excellent and authentic!

Cosy downtown spot. Very delicious authentic northern Thai food. Very good customer service. Thank you for the nice bday treat. Our waitress was very kind!

Upscale Thai gourmet dinner. We had the 7 course meal, with sake pairings and everything was excellent. Attentive service, nice description of the dishes and sakes.

The staff at Kiin went above and beyond to ensure an exceptional dining experience. Our time here will forever be remembered. My girlfriend and I have been apart for an extended duration and were able to finally see each other for a few days. The experience dining at Kiin helped make our reunion an even more memorable. If you re a foodie, you re certainly in for a treat. Their menu is a true tasting experience to be enjoyed, start to finish. We both selected the 7 course dining experience, but now wish we had selected the 12 course option. Next time for sure. Thank you to the entire staff, and a special thank you to Jessica for ensuring we could reschedule our reservation!

We had the 7-course menu - the different courses tasted and looked very nice and good. The dessert was a bit off. What should be highlighted is the very good service. We had a very nice evening there. Nevertheless, the menu seemed a bit overpriced at $120.

Incredible service. They take time to educate you on what went into each dish and what flavours to look for. Had the 7 course tasting menu, it very unique. The creativity was there, especially the dessert.

It was such a great experience at Kiin.. from delicious food, amazing presentation and great staff! I went here a few months back and I still cant forget about the tasting menu. I know theyve made changes to their menu but I imagine that its still amazing. Cant wait to go back!

Incredible tasting menu experience! The ambiance of the place is great. Think upscale yet relaxed. The service was also exceptional. Our server tended to us consistently throughout the night to make sure we had everything we had. Everyone who brought out our dishes were very kind. The mixologist was very helpful in describing the drinks to help us with our decisions. And Chef Nuit came out to serve our table at least 3 times. Every single person we interacted with at Kiin cared to be there and made sure we were taken care of. Of the 9 dishes we had, 7-8 of them were incredible. Specifically, we all LOVED the Tom Kho Scallop and Khanom Jeen Sao Nom. But honestly, all the dishes were very good, very fresh and quite flavourful. I can see why a Chef Nuit is so cherished in Toronto. The thought behind her menu really shines through in her food. Dietary restrictions: Halal

Second time here. Simply fantastic. Food, service were fantastic. No pretentious cr*p, just great people making our experience awesome. Food

We went to the restaurant this past weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our experience from the moment we walked in. The decor and atmosphere was very inviting and the service was on point the entire night. We sat at the bar and shared items from the bar menu including the Deep-Fried Oysters with Quail Egg, the Isaan-Style Laab Salad, and finally the Boombai Short Rib with Roti (I would put this Boombai curry on vanilla ice cream or fill up a pool and swim in it as it was sooo good that night ;)) We also had a few of the cocktails which also lived up to expectation. For the bold and the offside, like me, try the Dirty Fish Martini. It not for everyone of course but was an interesting experience that I enjoyed. And yes, I ate the anchovy. It was delicious! At the end of the evening we heard they do brunch on the weekend with some other unique dishes which we hope to return for and try in the near future.

Except for the friendliness of the reception staff, all of them are unsatisfactory. The food was salty, it came out late, and the surrounding tables were so noisy that it felt like a market, but they didnt pay attention at all, so we couldnt have a conversation throughout the meal. There is no atmosphere at all to enjoy food quietly.

Excellent experience. Food was phenomenal, and the timing between courses was perfect. They even modified dishes during the tasting to accommodate a preference, which was so kind. They really go above and beyond to create a positive experience for everyone. Vegetarian options: Vegan menuavailable

10/10 no notes

Delicious chicken rice, but the quality is inconsistent

Incredible food! I highly recommend making a reservation. When we did a walk-in at 7pm, we reserved for 8pm but ended up waiting until 8:30. Service was a bit slow and our 12-course meal ended up taking nearly 2.5 hours to complete with large delays at the beginning, but the impeccable food, atmosphere, and chatting with the friendly staff and Chef Nuit made it worth it! Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour. A lot of thought and creativity went behind it and I highly recommend the 12 over the 7! If you arent a fan of coconut/fish sauce/tamarind, you may not be accustomed to the taste. My favourites were the watermelon palate cleanser with shallots and fish sauce, deep fried quail egg taco with oyster and tamarind sauce, the amazing steamed dumpling filled with a crunchy peanut mixture and sweet coconut sauce to drizzle, the gorgeous scallop bathed in a tangy lime coconut broth with basil oil, lemon pearls and caviar, the coconut rice vermicelli with steamed shrimp, lamb with an amazing thai chile reduction, the delicious crispy roti with a generous portion of tender short rib, sweet potato thai crispy crepe, and an incredible granita (shaved ice with lychee juice, lychee, cherries) with a crunchy peanut brittle. The laab was a bit on the salty side and chicken curry with rice and yuchoy was good but not too special; nevertheless everything ranged from delicious to incredible! Lastly, the Chef Nuit surprised me for my birthday with a hand-written card, happy birthday, and candle! I got to take back a signed menu as well and photos. I highly recommend reserving for a special occasion/date night and would come back to try their brunch and fall tasting menu. Vegetarian options: Vegan tasting menu

The food was not bad - but I m not sure it warrants such a high price tag. For example, I feel the noodles were something I could get elsewhere for half the price, and better quality.

Had the 12 course tasting menu, delicious, highly recommend. The staff are ninjas Dietary restrictions: Easily accommodated my gluten free needs

We had the pleasure to enjoy the 7-course tasting menu at Kiin last night. We sat at the chefs table and it was wonderful. At first, it was fascinating to see the efficiency and skill on how the dishes were artfully served and garnished. As dinner progressed, it was remarkable to observe the care and hard work of how the staff works to accommodate dietary restrictions, preferences and allergies! Since we have no restrictions, we fully enjoyed our dinning experience. Each dish was delicious! The staff was friendly, professional, and efficient from the time that we arrived to the time we left. We had the opportunity to meet chef Nuit Regular and her business partner. They were very welcoming and kind. Good luck in two weeks when Michelin anounces this years winners! In our book, you have earned 3 stars (5/5 in Google ). Thank you Kiin for making our special occasion celebration truly special! We look forward to dinning with you again!

I lived in thailand for years( Im picky with my Thai food. ) We went for our anniversary. Expected Some good food. But we got some incredible atmosphere , experience food.... Love. If you like beautiful food you must experience KIIN... Dietary restrictions: They will work with you and make your experience perfect.

We celebrated our Ruby anniversary in Kiin restaurant, food are delicious and atmosphere is warm and cozy , Jessica is very sweet and lead her service team well , I felt like eating in a five star hotel .Chef Nuit is pro in Thai food and know how to use ingredients well, she together with service team will let you know each single dish ingredients and we will definitely go again for they will change the tasting menu once awhile . Dietary restrictions: My husband and I can t take too spicy dishes and Clef Nuit and Chef Danial together with their cooking term custom made mild sauces for us , we appreciated how they treated their guests well .

Amazing experience. Our server is really nice and knowledgeable abt dishes. Food is fantastic

Absolutely blown away by the kind and gracious service, fantastic cocktails, and memorable after memorable dish. What a special gem. Thank you team!

I had high hopes for my dining experience here, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. We opted for the 12-course tasting menu with wine and sake pairings. While the presentation was visually stunning, many of the dishes lacked distinct flavors and leaned excessively on sweetness, which diluted the overall experience. On a brighter note, the wine service was outstanding. The bartender, despite being the only staff member at the bar, took the time to expertly explain each wine and sake. His insights were impressive, and I truly appreciated his attention to detail. Ultimately, while there were a few memorable moments, the experience didn t justify the price. The limited flavor variety in the food left me feeling that it was a bit overpriced for what was ultimately offered.

As someone who has famously really disliked common thai food (sorry), this restaurant has completely changed my mind. Super passionate and attentive staff. Very tidy bathroom (though very small, fyi, not wheelchair accessible at all). Can t wait to go back and try the vegan tasting menus. Perfect for a festive date, amazing cocktails. Vegetarian options: many! Dietary restrictions: very vegan and vegetarian friendly

Tried the seven-course tasting menu. It is okay. The watermelon starter was good. The first dish is a bit too sweet. The second dish is a bit too sour. The third dish, the cold soup was good. The fourth dish, the noodle was also good but some of the beans are raw and chew like small stones, which ruined the dish. The fifth dish, the chicken rice was good. The sixth dish, the beef stuck on my teeth and the flavour is too heavy. The roti is too sweet. The last dessert dish has some creativity and tastes okay. The service and the environment was good but the food did not impress me. This is a fine dining restaurant so I was expecting more balanced and complicated flavours.

The tasting menu was a phenomenal experience. The wine tasting to pair the menu was perfect. Cocktails, atmosphere, service and food all 11/10. Thank you Jeff & team for making my birthday dinner so special

Kiin is the hidden gem in downtown toronto that is a must try for thai food lovers. We sat at the bar and every cocktail on the menu that we tried surpassed our expectations. Great service and a such a feel good warm ambience if you are on a date night. I only took one star away for portion size of food. We didnt book the tasting menu thinking it would be lot of food and ordered from bar food menu. For a price of 35$ plus tax, our shareable item was not sufficient. It will be great if they clarify that when people book. But nonetheless we had a great time. Special mention to our bartender Jeff! Vegetarian options: They had a decent amount of vegan options available!

Where do I start? Husband and I went there yesterday for our 9th anniversary. It is such a beautiful, unpretentious place that has a cozy atmosphere. The service was excellent, the food was unique. The cocktails are to die for, worth every penny. I will be back sometime only for the cocktails, they are so creative. Our server Laika (I hope I spelled her name correctly) was super sweet. We spent an amazing night.

AMAZING place for Thai brunch!! Food was wonderful - so flavourful and delicious and reasonably priced. The ambience is also beautiful. What really stands out is the service!! Staff were friendly and went above and beyond to make our birthday celebration special!! Highly recommend!

Excellent

So mid. The food lacks seasoning and flavor. The portions are small especially for the dumplings. Far too pricey.

We had an amazing Thai brunch at Kiin! We ordered the pad thai with chicken, the shrimp paste fried rice, and the thai chicken curry puffs. The presentation of the food was spectacular and the taste was phenomenal! I loved the grilled chicken on the pad thai so amazingly juicy and flavourful. Service was extremely nice and helpful. The restaurant ambience is also exceptional perfect for a fancy date with friends, family, or your partner.

Beautiful presentation, food was great. Servers were very attentive.

Amazing dishes, each one so unique and flavorful. There wasnt so much time between the dishes either which helped in moving the dinner along. The tasting menu for the vegetarians is also phenomenal. Some of our vegetarian friends said it was the best testing menu theyve ever been to. highly recommend! We did the 12 course and it took us 3 1/2 hours .

This is one of the best experiences I ve had dinning in Toronto. Thank you for making our anniversary special. A phenomenal gastronomic journey, exceptional service in a beautiful space. If I could give it a 6 out of 5, I would.

Bad experience. Walked-in on a Sunday morning and waited for the server for 10 minutes.

Our daughter took us to Kiin for the 12 course tasting menu. This was the first day of their new summer menu. Some dishes were spectacular while a couple had a few misses. My daughter and I (both vegetarians) got 2 completely different dishes for one of the courses, which seemed to be a mistake. Overall the presentation was refined and beautiful! The cocktails were interesting and the service was excellent. The most endearing part of this restaurant is that the Chef comes out to meet with every guest and one gets to engage with her story. It is definitely a restaurant I would come back to.

The food, service, and ambiance at this restaurant are all exceptional, truly on par with a Michelin-starred establishment. They claim to offer cuisine in the style of Thai royalty. While I cant verify how well they represent Thai royal cuisine, their Thai dishes and presentation certainly stand out from typical Thai restaurants. Overall, their dishes are milder than standard Thai fare, but they provide chili peppers and other seasonings so diners can adjust the flavors to their liking. Additionally, they also serve popular dishes from other Southeast Asian regions, such as Hainanese chicken rice and Chinese sausage. Remarkably, their prices are also very reasonable. If you want to experience some of the best Thai cuisine in Toronto, this restaurant is definitely one of the top choices.

KIIN - a Michelin guide restaurant in downtown Toronto, offers an out of the world 12 course tasting menu. Must visit just for the experience if not the yummy royal Thai Cuisine.

Great service, courses are fueling with creativity. It took 3 hours to try all 12 courses. It would be great if the restaurant could upgrade the quality of dinning wares.

Where to start I guess the food because after all, why are you going to a restaurant? the main star was the main star. I may have change the order in which the food came, because I think some of the earlier items overshadowed some that came later - when each course individually was great. Left satisfied in the most wonderful way. I was thinking back to the last time a dining experience left me so affected - and it took me many years back. Wow. The next thing would be the service. Top-notch in a very personal familiar way. I can t wait to see what the next tasting menu is like. Will eat every morsel and drink every drop.

I rarely make reviews but this place is the exception. Everything about this experience was a 10/10. I had the 7 course summer tasting menu and was mind blown with how good it was. My favourite courses were the scallop, dumpling, and catfish. SO good and I know I will be dreaming about these dishes for a while lol. Not only was the food impeccable, the restaurants interior design was so lovely and the service/staff were so friendly. Cannot recommend this place enough and I can t wait to be back for more!

Kiin made our wedding dinner an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was perfect. Kiin truly knows how to create a magical dining experience. Were so grateful for the wonderful memories and cant wait to see what innovative dishes they come up with next. Highly recommend!

Follow @bredgyeats for more food posts! My favourite flowers are ones I can eat, and this one is close enough. Kiins thai flower dumpling is steamed to a delicious glutinious chew, that releases a burst of sweet, fragrant umami from the fried baby shrimp and tamarind sauce, thats magnified by the fried garlic and chili placed on top. The betel leaf underneath also provides a fresh, herbal balance to your one bite. The coconut soup strikes a perfect harmony between the tropical richness of coconut with a taming acidity along with the lime leaves. The mushrooms inside have a snappy, bouncy texture and the grape tomatoes inside burst with a tangy sweetness, all rounded out with an aromatic combination of herbs. The short ribs were cooked to tenderness, no knife needed in order to demolish the meat along with a creamy yet tangy tamarind coconut curry. Included inside are potatoes that are just fork tender, peanuts, and pearl onions, served with a lovely serving of blue rice thats perfect to soak up the curry. We got the Thai Flower Dumpling, Coconut Soup, Massamaan Short Rib Curry

Absolutely delightful experience! The food was heavenly and the service impeccable!

A friend had recommended this place for some Thai food. This isn t any run of the mill Thai food. This is what Thai Royalty use to eat back in the day. We had the 7 course Spring 2024 menu. This is an array of wonderful flavour and textures. From crispy rice vermicelli to escargot curry. I can t begin to describe the wonderful dishes that were apart of this experience. Checkout the picture. It is expensive, but like I said this is an experience. Try it out for urself.

Super nice restaurant. Definitely worth the first star in Michelin. Entertaining food of outstanding quality. We had a very enjoyable evening at Kiin. Super sweet staff and a small but creative wine list ! Food

I like Pai & Sukothai from the same owner. Didnt enjoy kiin as much. Went on Sun lunch and therefore had to go with the Thai brunch menu. A bit too fancy and not enough usual choices besides pad Thai (no red curries or Khao soi)..had deep fried golden bags, good but small. Had pad Thai which was ok. Also had Thai rice porridge (Jhok) which was not my cup of tea. From pictures of their menu online it seems to be fluctuating between 10 choices of main dishes and 5 dishes. For us it was the latter.. ended up $58 for 2 main & 1 starter which nowadays is considered reasonable.

Very expensive. Food representation is way better than teste. Service is great. It set up for a date night when you are willing to spend 2 hours for dinner. Not for me.

We celebrated my fiancée s birthday and had the 7 course tasting menu. Everything was delicious and the service was amazing! Will definitely be back!

Everything was amazing. Tried the 12 course tasting menu and it was a meal and an experience all I one. Michelin guide restaurant and a must try!!

The best experience I have found in Toronto thus far. We reserved the chefs table to watch as the food was prepared. Each course a unique tour of Thailand in a dish. The atmosphere was perfect. Comfortable and cozy for an intimate celebration. The staff were exceptional. Though it was our first time, they treated us like we had visited many times before. Even the chefs took the time despite the busyness of the kitchen to come speak with us. They plan to change the tasting menu with each season. Definitely returning to this restaurant to see what they come up with next!

We went to Kiin for dinner and ordered a 7-course tasting menu, and everything was beyond our expectations. The atmosphere of the restaurant is great dark, cozy, elegant, and intimate, perfect for a date or a small group gathering. They have a unique Thai-style interior, and the room scent is also pleasant. The service is excellent: the staff are very patient and polite, and they introduced every dish to us. We also got a chance to talk to the chef, who is very friendly and made us feel welcome. The food is the best part, as you can see in the pictures, it is well-presented and delicious. We were amazed that the portions are very generous, and we were very full and satisfied afterward. Its definitely worth the value of the price you pay. The overall experience is great; I think its one of my top picks among the fine Thai restaurants Ive been to. Ill definitely come again and 100% recommend! (Also thanks restaurant for being considerate and provide hygiene product in the restroom)

I came here for my birthday this past weekend and all I can say is I was impressed. I also left very full! Did the 12 course meal (you don t see the dishes until they come to the table). They also substituted some of the items for me since I don t eat beef or pork. They were all a work of art. The staff were knowledgeable and very friendly and accommodating. I m just going to share the pictures of what we ate, instead of talk to them all I can say is everything was delicious and a unique take on Thai food I don t think you ll experience anywhere else. Their presence on the Michelle s Guide makes sense. This was also the first time I tried escargot! They were patient enough to answer my boyfriend s many questions and he even left with one of their hard-to-find ingredients, and a cookbook! Shoutout to our server (I m sorry I didn t get her name but she was Philippino)~ Also the birthday card from the staff made me feel just that more special WOW

We had the 12-course tasting menu, and it has to be one of the best weve had. Pretty much every course was presented in an eye-catching, unique setup, but also was delicious and packed with flavors. There was plenty of variety to be had, with different meats, veggies, fruits, herbs and flavors, and we kept looking forward to every upcoming course. The overall meal was filling, and we were left with nothing more to desire. 100% recommend.

Everything was perfect. The food was fantastic. We did the 12 course menu every bite was delicious. The staff were friendly and very nice. Highly recommended

Exceptional food but don t come hungry! The food on the tasting menu will probably be some of the best you ve ever tasted! But the 12-course menu is truly a journey with a lot of waiting in between each stop. Our main course came 2 hours into the meal, which was preceded by 9 dishes that were one bite each. So imagine showing up hungry to dinner, being given an absolutely amazingly flavorful bite of something and then having to wait 10-15 min to take a single bite of something else. If that s how you roll, good! It was a bit much for me. But at least after asking for some extra rice, I didn t walk out hungry. So yeah, have a bite before embarking on thai culinary journey.

Amazing food and experience! Came here for the Sunday brunch and ordered anything I could. We didn t have enough space on the table for everything but we ate it and made space! It was soooo good!

Exceptionally elevated Thai cuisine! The 12 course tasting menu can be made vegetarian. Each dish is beautifully plated, creative, and has unique flavours. Great service in a small but beautiful dining room. This is a must try for anyone who enjoys Thai cuisine. The cost is high but appropriate for a Michelin grade culinary journey and experience.

Had the 7 course menu this time for the Spring Menu. Chef Nuit and her team have taken another jump forward in presentation and taste combination. Every course is presented in unique fashion with lots of unique flavor combinations. At the moment there are tables still available for April, so book quickly before the reservations moves back to its two month wait.

New menu is star worthy

Had a great experience at Kiin. The pad thai and boat noodles were both awesome. Servers went above and beyond to attend to us. The atmosphere inside was nice and cozy.

We came here for Sunday brunch and were very happy with the food and service!! The atmosphere is fresh and charming with lovely flowers. Would recommend the chicken soup and papaya salad if you like light, clean, and flavorful food. The donuts with coconut pandan sauce were also amazing. We will definitely be coming back here next time we are in Toronto!

We bartered tasting menu course of 7 and it was delicious! I am definitely coming back for the summer menu because after this diner, kiin has a special place in my heart Not only the food but the cocktails were also very interesting and not simple

Did 7 courses. What a fantastic experience! Each was a work of art with complex and perfectly balanced flavours and textures. Probably spoke with 6 different staff while I was there. Amazing service and a 10th anniversary to be remembered. Thanks! Dietary restrictions: We informed them ahead of time my wife was gluten and dairy free. Each course was customized so she didn t even have to think before digging in!

This place has one of the best Thai brunch. The food is pure authentic, I have travelled to Thailand few times and this food brings all the flavours back. All the dishes are well presented and prepared to its perfection. Great cocktails. Would definitely come back to eat dinner as I only went for brunch. 10/10. Also a place to go for special occasion.

The food was absolutely the best Thai food I ve ever had! It s a little bit on the expensive side, but honestly, the service and food were among the best experiences I ve ever had! It was like Michelin Star. I d go again for a special occasion.

Husband and I came here for weekend brunch a few weeks ago and had a great time! Beautiful and charming atmosphere, service was top notch (food came quickly, servers were extremely friendly and attentive) and food was incredible. The golden dumplings were SO good, we could ve ordered multiple dishes of those and been very content! We also ordered the pad Thai and one of the traditional breakfasts- both were flavourful, love that each dish consistented of several elements. Highly recommend and also make reservations! The place filled up quite quickly.

A beautiful, cozy dinner, with impressive service! We chose to do the chefs menu, which we did not regret. You feel really full after dinner. Portions are generous! Every bite was an amazing flavour profile- felt like a party in my mouth!! Big thanks to the chef! Food

The restaurant had 5 people seated, more workers, and plenty of empty tables, but was refused a table because apparently the chef didn t want more people or maybe I was being PROFILED! Go figure! Adding this comment after your response: 1. I guess your response would make complete sense had I not seen 2 other people walk in after and didn t; see them walk out. So I guess the chef had no issues seating 2 people, but had a flow issue with 1 person? 2. The offer to go to PAI was ridiculous, if I had to go to PAI I would have gone to PAI. People come to a restaurant to try that restaurant, not shooed away to eat somewhere else.

Amazing tasting menu experience

We had the pleasure of trying Kiin s 7 course tasting menu. The presentation was wonderful and the flavours left us wanting more of each course. The staff was kind and attentive, making the space welcoming. It was great to experience thai flavours presented in such unique ways. Highlights were the birds nest dumpling, oysters, wagyu, banana leaf pork, and mango sticky rice inspired dessert.

Went for the Thai brunch menu which I thought was unique in the city. The food was delicious but I found the portions small as entrees. My group ordered everything to share which was a great way to try a majority of their dishes. I d recommend the Jhok (Thai rice porridge), Pad Thai and Chor Muang (purple steamed Thai flower dumplings). The Cha Chug (Thai pulled milk tea) and Thai Iced Coffee were good. I d skip the Khao Khai Jiao (omelette). Wished I had tried the Patong Cho (Thai crullers served with a coconut-pandas custard) because the crullers were really good. The Khai Kratha traditional breakfast and Jhok (Thai porridge) came with a few of the crullers which I thought was delicious.

A must visit if you want to experience fine dining with intricacy. We got to meet Chef Nuit in person. She is amazing to speak with and very down to earth. Coming to the service and the hospitality. We felt truly special and they left no stone unturned to make it a great night for us. The server knew exactly what was being served and gave us information about every ingredient on the plate. The food, hands down the best Thai you can eat. The portion sizes are well thought of and taste is great! It s definitely a must try. Can t wait to try their brunch.

I can t say enough good things about this restaurant. The food is incredible; amazing flavours and beautiful presentation. We did the set menu and for $120/$130 pp we felt the value was well worth it. The portion sizes were quite large, especially the surf and turf khao soi and lobster pad Thai. The service was also above and beyond and our server went out of her way to make our experience 5 stars. Highly recommend this spot if you re looking for a great place to celebrate a special occasion!

Tasting menu was stellar!

Weekend brunch at Kiin is excellent. The traditional Thai breakfast and lunch dishes are unique and SO good. Ive been here a few times and highly recommend the jhok (Thai rice porridge) and khai kratha (Thai-style pan-fried eggs). Their drinks are great too -- Ive had the cha chug (Thai pulled milk tea) and the Thai tea latte. The decor is elegant and the service is very good. Reservations are recommended. We were walk-ins and waited a bit for a high top table which is not as comfortable as a standard table. Update: I came back to have the Royal Thai-inspired multi-course Sumrab tasting menu. This was a really unique dining experience, and its definitely worth it for a special occasion dinner. The food was fantastic, the presentation was beautiful, and we felt full at the end of the meal. Menu standouts include the dry-style khao soi with braised beef brisket, the red curry smoked duck, and the massaman short rib. There is also a vegan Sumrab tasting menu and an à la carte menu.

The service is warm and welcoming. The highlight is the wild betel leaf wrap. We were not impressed by other appetizers, nor main entry. Soup was flavorful but too salty. Papaya salad was missing the crunch and a bit leathery. After the wild betel leaf wrap, there were no more wow s for us.

An absolutely delicious experience in summer of 2023 - part of the issue I always have with going to the Chef s other restaurants is being pulled to my favourite (khao soi) and then not having enough room to have much else - the tasting menu solves this for me and lets someone enjoy a symphony of flavours that otherwise would be missed! The presentation is very elegant, served in a what I can only describe as very eclectic decor dining room. Each dish introduced by the staff with a short explanation. Be wary that like many downtown venues the bathrooms are very, very small! The fresh cocktails (mocktails for me) were all very good. Service was very attentive and eager to fix anything not perfect for us, too. We had an early seating and the co2 levels were good but steadily rising for those who are concerned about air quality. It is a packed place, and no HEPA filters were seen from our dining area 100% would come dine again!

We tried the tasting menu and it didn t disappoint. Loved every dish and was a great experience. The people who work there are super nice, knowledgeable and explain everything about the food. The drinks are great and pretty! Will definitely recommend.

Fantastic vegan tasting menu.

Ambience and dinner and drinks and music. Perfect. 10/10 Best I have ever dined. Food

The fragrance from the kitchen was already perfect upon entering. The service was informative and kind. We ordered several dishes. The highlights: The dumplings and chicken satay to start was perfect, packed full of flavour. From there the coconut mushroom soup was phenomenal, never had anything like it but was just so full of flavour. Both the beef curry and beef noodles were 10/10. They certainly earned the Michelin recommendation! 100% worth the visit. Flawless.

First time here, lunch, and you begin to appreciate the depth and heritage of Thai cuisine and methods. So appreciative of chef Nuit and what she brings to customers here. Thai may be the best cuisine in the world.

Best lobster I ve had. Generous tasting menu and wine pairing.

Great experience and even better food! The ambiance is really nice, though it is a bit small on the inside and the waiters can get busy but they managed it really well. The food is the best part, we had the dumplings for starters and then the beef short ribs, khao soy and red curry duck, everything was perfect. Portions seem small but we were decently full at the end of the night. Worth it for the A La Carte menu! Dietary restrictions: They have halal food

Kao mun kai is really good. Must try thai tea Food

Great service, and amazing set menus. Ive been at $500+ fine dining experiences that dont compare to the food here for a fifth of the cost. Everything was tasty and we were both entirely too full at the end. This should be on every top list for set menu dining.

This is the best Thai food that I ve had in a while. We did the tasting menu and everything that was served was so flavourful. Highly recommend !

Excellent service, amazing friendly staff, and elevated Thai food.

This restaurant deserves a Michelin star. Weve dined at other Michelin star restaurants and this blows them out of the water. The service, food, atmosphere are all 10/10. The staff is phenomenal. We felt welcome the moment we stepped in through the door. From servers to bartenders, everyone was great. This is the only restaurant we found that didnt jack up the prices of their regular menu on New years Eve. We opted for their Sumrab tasting menu. Priced at $100 pp, it was reasonable for the quality and quantity of food served. Every single thing we tasted was a burst of new flavours. The presentation of the food was top notch and very colorful. The wild betel leaf wrap, Thai flower dumpling, golden bag dumpling, Khao Soi, and green curry with chicken wrapped in betel leaf were truly mind blowing. The meat was so tender and flavorful in every dish. The dessert was some form of coconut base with rice balls. It looked a little underwhelming, but tasted 10/10. We didnt think Thai food could get any better, but Kiin quickly proved us wrong. Were so glad we decided to spend our new years Eve at Kiin. Thank you!

Waitress was very nice and patience while we order our food.

What a wonderful nye experience! This is the second time Ive done the royal meal here and it never disappoints. Plenty of food, great atmosphere and the staff is so lovely! I had to go alone this time as my husband was sick so I sat at the Chefs table to watch the magic (chaos) happen. So fun! And they prepared a package for me to take home. Thank you, Kiin!

Had a bustling visit to Kiin Thai during the busy holiday season, specifically on New Year s Eve brunch. Despite not having a reservation, they accommodated us. Service was great, though there was a mix-up with my breakfast order, swiftly corrected with a quick turnaround for all dishes. Just a funny note. I was surprised by the wrong breakfast order since I had requested a substitution by removing Chinese and Vietnamese sausages for more chicken a request that went through 5 people in the kitchen. Despite approval from 5 people and all of them knowing my order, they still brought out a completely different menu item as if we didn t just go through that lol Now we definitely enjoyed the papaya salad (very fresh and right amount of shrimp or seafood taste), chicken and shrimp dumplings (they came with these carved out hollow cucumbers that had a nice sauce inside, which I do recommend) , and the fried chicken with curry sauce (coconut curry). Pad Thai noodles were fantastic, but the chicken on it lacked flavor. If you enjoy Sukho s or Pai s pad Thai you will love this one even more as the flavour is strong and tasty tamarind. Unlike other Thai restaurants I noticed here they didn t ask how spicy you want it but they have chilli on the side. The grilled chicken was impressive but noticed a smaller portion than earlier orders, but maybe because they were almost done. Not a big fan of the Hainese chicken here since it Thai style maybe? as it didn t match the rice flavour of Malaysian or Singapore style. Overall, a positive experience with a few noteworthy points. This was brunch so we ll definitely checkout the dinner menu sometime. All staff were great too and Kiind. Khai Kratha (Thai-Style Eggs) Chicken and shrimp Dumplings Gai Yang (Grilled Chicken) Papaya Salad Pay Thai with chicken Khao Gaeng Karee Gai Tawd (Fried Chicken Curry) Khao Mun Gai (Hainanese Chicken Rice)

Had the pleasure of spending a Sunday evening enjoying the tasting menu at the chefs table. One of the best dining experiences we have ever had! As people who frequent Thailand, our expectations were high- Kiin delivered. From the details in each dish to the spectacular service, we could not have been happier. Highly recommend for a great date night.

Just can t get over it!!! It was our first time dinning into a Michelin star restaurant and it was amazing!! We took the tasting menu which is definitely $$$$ but it was worth it. The flavors were on point. Food

Fantastic service from the whole team, enjoyed the interior design of the space, and the each course from the tasting menu was a surprise. Really enjoyed our time.

Maybe tasting menu would be a better choice.

Seems salt is free, tasting the ocean. I cannot imagining that how salty and only ally in my mouth. The one and only restaurant can bring you experiences. Service and vibe are ok, just too salty. Thai food is more then salt. BTW the shrimps are smaller than I buy from nofrills

Celebrated my 25th birthday with brunch here! Had a table of 9 people- service was kind, and the drinks and food came out in a very timely manner. They presented my cake in a super cute way. We loved the atmosphere and the food was absolutely delicious. The drink menu is also fantastic- loved the coffee!

Excellent suggestions from our waitress and food was elevated Thai with lots of flavour. Papaya salad and short ribs were very notable Parking: Outdoor lots just around the corner

This quaint little eatery is elegantly and thoughtfully arranged, offering food that is both delicious and creative. The Hainanese chicken rice is uniquely paired with crispy fried chicken cutlets; surprisingly, the beef noodles come with pork lard crisps. Coffee is accompanied by a cup of tea. Ingeniously, the bill is cleverly presented in a stone mortar. Its a wonderfully rich and enjoyable experience I like it!

Extraordinary Thai restaurant. Superb decor and service. The presentation of the dishes is careful. We loved it and can t wait to go back! Thank you for the beautiful evening!

Great spot! We started with the mouthful mocktail, which was delicious. Really appreciate a restaurant with solid mocktail options. The appetizers were also fantastic and the presentation was so lovely. The flower dumplings we had were probably the tastiest dumplings I have ever eaten, and gluten free too, which was a bonus as my friend does not tolerate gluten well and doesnt usually get to eat dumplings. The pomelo salad was super refreshing and the chicken satay was solid too. The main (a chicken green curry) was good but not spectacular. Will probably try something else next time. We had a dessert that was like bubble tea, really nice flavours and texture and big enough to share. But what really stood out for me was the service and ambience of this spot. Sure, the bill was a little pricey but the servers were so incredibly attentive and nice. Will definitely return. Thanks Kiin!

TL;DR - go there and you won t regret. Wanted to visit for a long time. Finally got to make a reservation for Saturday. Read the recommendations about chef s table and got one for 5pm. Service 10 out of 5. Got so much attention from our server Jessica and nothing but good things to say about the team in the kitchen who were working like a well oiled machine. Daniel and the rest of cooks team were all smiles yet very professionally taking care of every single menu item and garnishing with care and love. Food - I ve got the tasting menu and my wife got the Pad Thai. The pad Thai as an a la carte item and is huge portion with a full size lobster. Phenomenal flavours, I ate a few in my life and it is good, if not the best I ever tried. The tasting menu offers variety of appetizers that are rich in flavours and work hard on the taste buds while the main smoked duck curry took the cake. Dessert was a pleasant surprise and the coffee is of an excellent quality to satisfy a coffee snob like myself. One of the better places I ve been to in the recent years. In my personal opinion better than Pai that is located just down the street, even though the owners are the same. Will def come back. Thank you!

Best food we have ever eaten! An incredible culinary experience.

Restaurant is just smoke and mirrors. Terrible food but good service. The curry portion was so small we thought it was someones leftovers.

Visited Kiin and had the Sumraf tasting menu. To say the food, service and overall experience was amazing would be an understatement. You can tell throughout the evening the staff wants your experience to be a journey. Nothing was rushed, the food was brought out at a pace that allowed you to enjoy each course. The food itself is next level and the staff was amazing in their delivery and explanation of each dish. Kiin is highly recommended as a must visit.

Appetizers were delicious but main dish was cold

Best restaurant I ve tried so far. Our waitress Jessica and the chef gave their personal touch and hospitality to our services and our food. Definitely will come again. I enjoy so much during our meal.

Went here for lunch, and loved it! Food was immaculately presented, but none of that would matter if it didnt taste good. Happy to say that everything was amazing. Very reasonable lunch prices too!

We came here for dinner we were recommended the tasting menu and loved the whole experience. The mocktails were great as well! The service was great, explained all the dishes and the correct way to eat each of them. I came here a second time and saw they took off the fried Roti dessert, which was my favourite! I wish they bring it back to the menu

Reserved this place for my wifes birthday after seeing great reviews and it was also was chosen as a Michelin Guide restaurant for this year. The inside is nice and cozy, more on the contemporary side rather than modern and sleek which is what I prefer. We ended up ordering Chicken Satay which was probably the best dish, the flavour was amazing. The Smoked Duck Curry was one of our mains and this was also amazing, the mix of flavours was phenomenal. We ordered the Dry Khao Soi which was great, similar to other Thai spots. The service was also amazing! They were super nice and friendly. They even threw in a nice little birthday treat. Highly recommend this place Vegetarian options: They have options for vegetarian varieties of their dishes Dietary restrictions: They can accomodate allergies

Thank you so much chef Daniel for giving us food coma lol. Everything was great and well presented. The servers also know their menus by heart. Great team and amazing restaurant.

Amazing experience, definitely the most unique Thai restaurant Ive ever been too. Service was top notch and food was amazing. Would come again for special occasions.

Kiin is a force to be reckoned with. Dinning here you are assured to be served some of most truly authentic dishes showcasing the vibrant and insanely delicious cuisine that Thailand has to offer. Each dish is masterfully balanced hitting all the right notes of sweet, sour, salty and spicy. We ordered the Royal Thai set menu and after finishing each course, I had a feeling of true excitement for the next one to arrive. A feeling I havent had at a restaurant in a very long time. Kiin manages to excite your pallet, and maybe even challenge it, in the best way possible. Coupled with the amazing food is front of house team that is warm, friendly and extremely attentive. No water glass is left empty, napkins are refolded and placed on the table if youve left your seat, and any request is made graciously. Chatting to one of our servers, (I wish I had got his name) he told me that they are patiently waiting for this years Michelin Guild to come out to see if they will be awarded a star. In my view, this restaurant is absolutely deserving of a star and, if Kiin doesnt manage to achieve it this year, I have no doubt that they will in the near future. I would highly recommend and will absolutely be coming back to explore more of the menu!

This restaurant was recommended by a friend and also a Michelin guide recommended restaurant. We booked reservation few weeks ago. The place was very nice. The lighting was just good. We were friendly greeted by the person at the entrance. We came for birthday celebration. They took us to our table, a birthday note was already placed on the table. Every staff that passed by said happy birthday. We took some time to read the menu, but staffs were very knowledgeable and patient with us. We ordered from the tasting menu as it was our first time there. Every dish that came to our table, the staff would explain to us what it was, and recommended us the way to eat it. Every plate was nicely decorated and placed for us. Food was delicious and beautiful. Everything was so impressive. I recommend this restaurant.

Menu was hard to read. Font and color is no no. But the service, food, atmosphere was top notch. Chef showed thai food can be upscaled Nice presentation with authentic taste. Food : 5/5 |

Had an amazing bday brunch at Kiin with a few friends. The interior is super cozy and quaint, and the seating is comfortable. Everything was plated aesthetically and tasted so good! Drinks were also super tasty - we tried the coconut based ones which were impressive and coconuty bliss. Service was spectacular, owner-executive chef Nuit came out herself to make sure we were enjoying our meal, congratulated me and also gave us a lil bday surprise on the house! They were also cool with my friends bringing in a cake from outside to surprise me. Do note that for brunch parties are limited to max 6ppl. As a PAI fan, Kiin has been on my list for a while and I am glad I saved it for a special event. I will definitely be back another day for the tasting menu :)

I visited Kiin with my partner for a quick dinner, and we were pleasantly surprised to secure a reservation just 15 minutes in advance. The food was delectable, especially the coconut soup which I thoroughly enjoyed. As a vegetarian, I would have appreciated more vegetarian options, but my partner relished the meat dishes. We also ordered a bottle of sake. The server was exceptionally friendly, and the overall atmosphere was delightful.

Had one of the best dine-in experiences here, me and my friend were lucky to be seated at the chefs table. We got to witness how hardworking and focused the team was working together from the kitchen to the service team from afar. Their whole team really puts their heart and attention to detail to each dish, it was entertaining watching them. They really engaged and took the time to educate their clients down to the ingredients, best ways to eat a certain dish and even down to how its crafted. We were lucky enough to even have a personal conversation with the chef himself. They delighted us with a nice surprise dish that went beyond and elevated our experience. Food was beautiful, phenomenal and delicious, one of the best Thai foods I had ever had. Will be visiting again, been raving to all my friends and family about this place.

I dont particularly like Southeast Asian food, but this place was delicious!

Went for a celebration and it was great. I got the vegan tasting menu and the wine pairing and was overall very happy with the experience. The tasting was plenty of food and very unique dishes. The wines were really interesting and not what I expected. The staff were very kind and passionate, everyone seemed very genuine. Note, if you dont like coconut the vegan tasting menu may not be for you. I love coconut though.

Had an exceptional dining experience. We opted for the tasting menu and every dish impressed with its presentation and taste. The sake and wine pairings were well done, although I have a slight preference for the sake pours. The cocktails were also delightful, and their distinct flavors really came through. We were initially skeptical about the lobster, since most places just add it for the sake of having a wow factor, but it worked well with the pad thai and khao soi. We were seated at the chefs table, and that enhanced the experience. We had a memorable conversation with Chef Daniel, and you can tell that hes really passionate about the food that they serve. Our server, Sarah, was also excellent and attentive to our needs. I cant commend the food and staff enough. Thank you for a truly delightful experience!

I had the best experience, everything was flavourful and well balanced, the portion are the perfect size to enjoy and the atmosphere is spot on. The service is great and lovely. I can only recommend trying it for yourself!

Good food! I came here for lunch today around noon. We were seated promptly upon having a reservation. We ordered moo ping, dumpling, boat noodles, pad Thai chicken and chicken fried rice. On the drinks we ordered the owliang ( Thai coffee) All the food were really good. I really enjoyed the moo ping and It s one of my favourite Thai dishes. Service was amazing, our server was always checking up on us and ensuring we taken cared of.

The food came out relatively quickly after ordering. All of the food tasted good. The owliang (coffee with condensed milk) was a unique experience. Service was good - I can see why this restaurant was included in the Michelin Guide. Food : 4/5 |

Came in with pretty high expectations but left pretty disappointed. Did the seasonal tasting menu and enjoyed the appetizers but it all went downhill from there. Was expecting an authentic Thai dinner: spicy, whack-bang of flavor, sadly experienced none of that. Everything was overly sweet/salty. The portions sizes were poorly thought out. A tiny bowl of Tom Yum for three people to share, not that we enjoyed it anyway, it was weirdly sweet/way too salty and not spicy at all. Servers were nice, couldn t do much about the spice levels but did bring us extra chili oil and fresh Thai peppers on the side, but you don t come to a Michelin Thai restaurant to season your own food. I guess they do need to cater to a certain clientele so they absolutely had to minimize the spice levels but the meal was nothing like what we ve had in Thailand.

Chef Nuit and Jeff are the most gracious hosts. Chef Nuits menu is high end without being pretentious. Like Pai, the ambience is perfection with the beautiful interior, fantastic music, and beautiful authentic Thai food. We were so lucky to be there on a night Chef and Jeff were there and they sat down w us to talk and celebrate a birthday w us. I can t recommend this place enough.

I went to Kiin today, attached a photo as a proof of my visit. I have to leave a comment here since I had a very bad experience here. Food - Food is ok. Average level Thai food. Portion is good. I went there with two of my friends, we ordered one main dish for each and an appetizer to share. I was pretty full with it. I ordered Pad Thai and its not as good as PAI. Service - Worst. I had a very bad experience there today. After sitting in, nobody come up to help us to have water for 15 mins. We had to call server all the time for any service. Nobody cared about you and just left you there after you ordered food. Its ok, I understood that many busy restaurants are like that. But then the worst part come. After we left, they called me, and asked, We are Kiin, we believe you left without paying. Im pretty sure we paid so I said, No, I thought I already paid before I left. She immediately said Are you sure?. Hehe, are you sure? I felt 100% offended by hearing that. I tried to keep polite and asked them to check again. After a few seconds hold they said they made a mistake, and hang up the call WITHOUT EVEN AN APOLOGIZE. OK, this should be a service of a Michelin recommendation. AVOID this restaurant and you can go any other Thai restaurant in the town.

tasting menu is amazing. especially with the all halal meat. thank you to the whole team for a wonderful evening! Vegetarian options: delicious Dietary restrictions: Halal

This was a spectacular dining experience. The food was flavorful, presented with perfection. Great start to my BD weekend.

The food was very tasty and the service was fantastic.

Went to Kiin recently and had the best time! The drinks were amazing (kudos to the bartender!) and the food was delicious. My step-mom loved the flower dumplings!!

Got 2 entree and 2 large plates, smoke duck and beef ribs and a coconut soup. All of which was pree good, only thing was the beef rib it didnt seem like the rib section but it was well cooked so it taste good but was not expected. The desert had this milky dish with rice balls and coconut, very chewy like mochi in addition to ice cream. Over all very good experience and good night out

Top class service and the food was incredible! The soups, the salads, the dumplings! Fresh and bright flavours that were subtle or loud when needed. Absolutely delightful and I cannot wait to return.

Absolutely amazing dishes. So beautifully plated and very fresh and delicious. Cocktails and service were also exceptional. Can t wait to come back again!

The drinks were amazing and the food was better than decent. My dinner companion enjoyed the food a bit more than I did. We had the tasting menu. I probably had overly high expectations. I didnt expect the food to be as good as the Blue Elephant or other similar restaurants in Thailand but it was just well presented middle of the road Thai food except without any spice. Not a hint of spice in any dish (including the Khao Soi, Penang and green curries). As far as I recall the menu did not not indicate any spice options (although I guess I should have asked). The food was generally tasty (although no single dish stood out to me as outstanding), just not what I expected. The service was excellent

Got a last minute reservation so didnt know what to expect but everything from the staff, the decor and the food is so well thought off. Its definately worth the splurge. The khao sui was just out of this world.. still dreaming of it!!

This is an amazing experience . We ordered the set menu and it did not let us down. I was impressed with one of the appetizers. It s a fried crispy bun sitting on a cucumber. I really like the mixed rice, great texture and flavour. The green noodles in sauce is fire! Short rib is tender and delicious. My least favourite is the Tom Yum, a bit too oily for me but maybe that s the authentic version. Jeff, our server is very accommodating.

Chef Nuits Kiin is a favourite of ours. We have been here countless times and we did not have 1 bad experience at all. Great service great good. Simply memorable. We love love this place. We met Chef Nuit and her husband, Jeff. The only way to describe this power couple is that they are equally amazing, warm, and beautiful as their restaurant, Kiin. We are blessed to have met them. Credit them and their wonderful team for our unforgettable experience. We are now big fans of the owners and Kiin! For us, Best Thai restaurant in Toronto. We need to buy the Kiin cookbook now.

Almost ordered the full menu booklet

One of the best Thai restaurants Ive been to. I think all of the dishes I tried were really good so it was really hard to pick a favorite. The Wild Betel Leaf has crunchy garlic bites that compliment the betel leaf and sauce. The skin of the thai flower dumpling is made from butterpea, which is why its purple. It tasted light and subtle. The green Papaya salad was super flavorful and had a spicy kick to it. The thai chili sauce was very strong in this dish. The khao soi with mushroom and tofu was one of my favorites because it came with a very flavorful sauce and crispy oyster mushrooms. My dining experience at Kiin was truly a wonderful experience. I adore the ambience and the service of the staff. Vegetarian options: Theres a vegan tasting menu with an assortment of dishes that are vegan/vegetarian. It ranges from appetizers to soups to full entrees

Chefs table reservation for 2 was an incredible birthday dinner reservation. Food 10/10 & exceeded our expectations. We tried the Sumrab Tasting Menu & the Royal Thai Set Menu (lobster pad thai main) - flavours were warm & familiar yet elevated by presentation & ingredients. Every bite was enjoyable! Standouts were the Tom Yum soup (what a flavour blast) and the Khao Soi (perfect egg noodles, curry sauce you could drink). Try their mocktails! Butterfly pea drop looked great and tasted better. The staff were friendly & attentive and made the experience very comfortable & immersive. Thanks to Chef Daniel, Vanessa, Stella & Sarah! Well be back for Stellas birthday next March.

Had brunch and had to try their house noodle soup because I love noodle soup and was it good? YES! I could have had another - it was flavourful and packed with meats and noodles were slurp-it-up goodness - a must have!

Tried the guay lub and good lord the SOUP is so light yet unbelievable flavorful. U can add sauces to it but in my opinion, doesnt need much. The chili vinegar adds an interesting experience. Noodles was very QQ. The rest of the toppings were homey. 10/10 The pandan latte was meh. 6/10. Pandan kinda subtle The mango sticky rice 9/10. Warm, sticky, nice sourness from the mango to contrast against the sweet cream Service was abit slow but atmosphere lovely nonetheless. Interesting mix of fancy but rustic?

We had fantastic service and great food from the Royal Thai tasting menu. Food was delicious, you could taste the care and thought that went into creating each unique dish. The ingredients were fresh and flavourful and masterfully joined together. The cocktails 3.5/5 - they are good, unique, but not exceptional. Our servers were very attentive and enthusiastic in explaining all the dishes that were being passed out. They took pride in their work. Overall a great place to try, especially with the Amex dining experiences credit. Definitely a place to add on your list. We will be taking our friends and family very soon.

Amazing staff, amazing food, chef Nuit was an absolute pleasure, shes so passionate about her food!

This is, without a doubt, the most superb Thai food experience you will ever have in the city of Toronto. The Royal Thai set menu is absolutely fantastic. Everything from the presentation, flavour and texture of every dish is brilliant. Awesome cocktails too. Jeff and Chef Nuit really care about making their guests feel special. Cant wait to come back again and have Chef Nuit sign my cookbook! Its important to note that this is a high-end restaurant. If youre looking for something more chill, check out Pai (downtown or uptown) or Sukothai (several GTA locations.) Those are also run by Jeff and Chef Nuit, which means maximum flavour and authenticity. All their restaurants are awesome, but Kiin is #1 for sure! Thanks for the memories and cant wait to make more with you guys!

good brunch.

Genuinely the best dining experience I have ever had - massive props to the entire wait staff that were working last night (11.17.23), you made my partner and Is anniversary so much more special. Apologies for the rush at the end of service, we were running to catch a ballet!

Really tasty and special boat noodles, highly recommended:) I do think it is necessary to make a reservation to avoid the queues

Overall a decent experience in terms of food, and great cocktails, however, I likely wouldn t come again due to the lack of quality/curation you d expect at similar spots. There was an unnecessary wait to be seated even though the table was ready. The two set menus are very similar except for the main. The flavour was too much and gave a sense of high sodium after each course compounding on to the next. Some palette cleansers in between courses or a neutral base to accompany courses could have helped balance the courses high flavour profiles. The main course is served on a tea light box which raises the height of the dish too much making it awkward to eat out of it. No side dish to put the lobster shells. The beef cubes were dry. Makes you think the chef didn t experience the course as a patron from start to finish but rather assessed each dish individually when planning it out. Cocktail glasses were wet but the drinks were delicious, easily the highlight of the night. Overall small details that count, when comparing to other restaurants in this price range and category.

What an experience! Beautiful presentation, delicious food and drink, and serving staff who took the time to explain what everything was. Vegan and gluten-free diners were well taken care of. A slight mix up in the reservation on my end was graciously accommodated. A big thank you to the whole team for a fabulous evening! Vegetarian options: Flavourful and unique

Im not kidding when I say YOU RELLY NEED TO COME HERE FOR DATE NIGHT. Me and my partner celebrated our anniversary here, and let me just say wow. I had come before to eat brunch and it was interesting and cool. But the tasting menu for dinner was just amazing. Felt like a real michelin restaurant. The best part was that it was very authentic taste which makes it a really good thai restaurant. We will come back!! Save up for a date night here Vegetarian options: Vegan tasting menu and a la carte.

Very upscale and intimate restaurant. Amazing food presentation and absolutely delicious appetizers, entrees and dessert. This is the 2nd time we have been to Kiin and we will be back. It is a bit expensive, but definitely worth what is, I believe, a Michelin star worthy restauran

My husband and I booked the chefs experience table and tried one of their set menus. The whole experience was 10/10 from beginning to end. The seats were facing the kitchen and the chef was talking to us a lot. The entire staff is amazing. Different servers would serve the courses and explain them to us. Everyone was super friendly and laid back. We felt like family. The food was spectacular!!! Our reactions to each dish were over the top. The depth of flavours, the quality of ingredients, everything was divine. We highly recommend and cannot wait to go back

Jessica was great. Would definitely recommend the lobster pad thai

Had an excellent dinner at Kiin. My wife and I had the set menu and while the food was great, the service from Behram and team was exceptional. Thoughtful and made the whole experience amazing. We ll be back for sure.

We came here for my husband s birthday and sat at the chefs table. It was an incredible experience. We got to talk to head chef Daniel while they prepped. He did let us sample a few dishes we didn t order because it was my husbands birthday which was so sweet of him. The food was amazing overall. The cocktails were amazing. There was not one ok or bad thing we had here. Definitely will be back here again, the food was such an amazing experience.

Decent food, disgusting cocktails. FOOD: Khao Mun Gai (crispy fried chicken): very interesting fusion, i like this even more than the traditional hainanese chicken rice. Pad Thai (pork): I love the combination or crispy pork with pad thai noodles. The only thing is that this dish is quite sour. DRINKS: I sit by the bar so I watched how they made cocktails. First step of every cocktail is fill 2/3 of the glass with whip cream. Every cocktails taste like a milkshake. Pink Thai Dye: the only way to describe this drink is a strawberry flavor cup of whip cream. I felt it up to my throat and nauseous after drinking this, I gave up half way. Owliang Martini: another cup of whip cream with coffee flavor. SERVICE: good customer service, chatty and friendly waitress. VIBE: this place is much smaller than I thought, table is quite small and not much space around.

Great atmosphere, good food, good service.

Amazing experience. A must visit place.

My fiancé and I had a reservation for 8:45pm and were excited because we were celebrating our anniversary. We arrived early, however, our table wasnt ready until 9pm. We were unhappy to say the least. We were seated and the manager approached us and apologized for the wait and wanted the opportunity to make it up to us as we were celebrating our anniversary, to which they did! We really appreciated the genuine apology and the service we received from our server. Our server was friendly, attentive and gave us tips on which food to eat first as we ordered from the tasting menu. The food was phenomenal, well presented and our kind of spicy. Despite the setback at the beginning, our night turned around. Thank you Kiin

Hidden gem. Came here to try their brunch and have been back 2 times for dinner and going again next week. How they made the Michelin list but didnt get a star is beyond me. So good Food to die for especially the masama beef Drinks and cocktails were divine Service was some of the best in TO Dumplings, masamam beef, pad Thai, papaya salad, all delicious Thai Iced tea best I have ever had If you havent been GO!!!!!!!!

Came here for brunch, reservations are a MUST! Food and service were excellent! I can t wait to come back! Everything we tried was amazing! Only suggestion is to lower the music a bit, and maybe choose a playlist that suits the ambience better. At one point there was rock music and I couldn t hear anything Food

From the staff, the food, the ambience, the service, the personal touches .EVERYTHING was great! The snacks were delicious, but my favourites were the pomelo salad and the panang fish curry. I would keep coming back just for these.

Food- my partner and I ordered the tasting menus - him the Sumrab and I got the Vegan Sumrab. Like many, we are familiar with the Thai flavours that come with curries, Pad Thai, Pad Gra Prow- very spicy, tangy and bold. Kiin introduced us to Royal Thai cuisine which takes a more balanced approach. We were so pleasantly surprised! The dishes were all so fun and flavourful and the textures and presentation well thought out. The portions were great- it was the first time my partner and I took home leftovers from a fine dining experience. If we had favourites, it would definitely be the Papaya Salad, KHAO SOI!!!, and the Wild Betal Leaf wrap. There were many standout dishes to choose from. Service & Atmosphere- it s such a cozy, intimate spot! The details in the decor are so well thought out, the washrooms are kept very clean, and the staff were all very friendly which gave the place such a comforting vibe. We sat at the chefs table - if you have the chance do it!! We had great chats with the Chef and our server Jessica. The service was detailed and personable. As major fans of Pai, we are happy to add Kiin to our favourite restaurant list :) Vegetarian options: Entire vegan tasting menu Dietary restrictions: Server, host and the reso platform all asked about dietary restrictions & allergies in advance. Vegan, DF and GF options

Wonderful dining experience, incredible food!

Service and tastes are amazing. Will come again.

Had reservations for 8:45pm, had to wait 30 minutes before getting a table. However the bartender (forgot his name) was so superb! I went with my spouse and 2 young children. The bartender kept them entertained and made them taste different drinks. Jessica was also amazing bringing us some appetizers to keep everyone happy. The manager came by afterwards and apologized as well. It was a sincere apology and honestly they took such good care of us, I didn t mind! Thank you for everything you did! We will be back! Dietary restrictions: Halal food!

Amazing service and food. Complex flavours and generous portions compared to many Toronto restaurants. Highly recommend it!

For numerous years, this delightful gem of a restaurant in Toronto has consistently captured my heart. Its one-of-a-kind culinary experience continues to amaze me, while the exceptional staff and service contribute to the fantastic atmosphere. I highly recommend adding this eatery to your go-to list in 2024 theres an endless wealth of praise I could shower upon it!
