Kinnaree Thai Cuisine

A quick tasty stop on our way back to Kentucky. I love Thai food especially CURRY! However, I've found that Thai curry greatly varies from one Thai place to another and I have very specific desires in the type of curry I like. We ordered the Massaman and Penang chicken curry as well as pork fried rice.There was no request for level of spice and both were very favorable but I would could call them both level 2 spicy at best.They were also more a consistency of soup instead if the creamy rich texture I really love in curry. I was insanely disappointed but, I won't order curry from here again.The fried rice was lovely. Nice portion, rice has a very good moisture level and similar to the curry the flavors were very good, just not spicy. Pricing is fair to high. Portions were adequate and my price was $45 for my to go of three entrees. Not a bad stop. The dine in area is pretty typical for its location an looked clean.

We're passing through Joplin Missouri on our way back home to Tulsa and we stopped at Kinnaree Thai cuisine for lunch. It was a very clean restaurant with a somewhat plain interior. The service and food was extremely good. We started with an order of spring rolls. Five spring rolls with a deliciously flaky wrapper and veggies inside served with a sweet-and-sour sauce. For my entrée, I chose Massaman curry with chicken, which was excellent. The curry had a very mild heat. My wife had chicken Thai basil. Both were served with a side of white rice. Our server was very attentive and friendly. She accommodated all our requests and brought out travel containers so that we could take home what we couldn't finish. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and make a point to stop here again in the future.

I am so upset right now... I was craving, Pad Thai, and my usual place was closed today, so based on the reviews I decided to get this place a try... Y'all this is NOT, Pad Thai! This was wet like soup (to the point if ALL the liquid spilling out and into the bag), flavorless despite the fact that I asked for a little bit of spice, and was capital WAY overpriced. I'd go in and give it back to get my money back but I don't have any time to wait to get to my next appointment.And on top of it when I got there, I was not acknowledged whatsoever which leads me to believe the service here is also severely lacking. Suffice it to say I will not be coming back.

Absolute best Thai in Southwest Missouri!! But be aware that one star is closer to two, being a bit of a wimp I get 1/2 star

Came here from out of town and ate here. This place slaps it's so good!! I love spicy so was in heaven with spice level 2. Not sure who could handle the spicer levels but dang it hurts so good!! Don't sleep on this place it's worth every penny.

I've been to Kinnaree twice and both times were mediocre. Personally, I only liked their curries - red curry and yellow curry. Everything else was honestly bad. My family never wastes food and this time we could not finish it :( . It's not that it tastes awful but its so bland, boring and a weird flavor. After that second experience, I just don't want to go back which is unfortunate because Kinnaree is one of the few Thai places in Joplin. The spice level is customizable - they basically just add more spice powder based on the level you request. They don't actually make the dish based on your spice level unlike most restaurants.

I paid $40 for just TWO mediocre dishes. They lacked flavor and had no sauce. I cannot believe they charged me this much for something like this. I heard such great things about this place, and I am so insanely disappointed. Never again.

Oh My Gawd!!! Mommas call the babysitters you might not come home tonight. Ps their heat is on the #!!! And

We love Asian food after living in Asia for five years. I really don't know how authentic Kinnarees is but I know the food is delicious. Friendly, efficient staff. A little plain, but pleasant , interior.

Excellent. Clean place. Drove 30 minutes from Carthage and well worth it. Ordered chicken satay and fresh spring rolls (very fresh) for appetizers, both great. Also ordered Showering Rama (could have used more Broccoli) and Pad Kee Mao w/chicken and shrimp (3 stars). I would cut back on the stars next time but still very good. We have one other Thai place to try that is very near to this place but if that isn't like this one then I believe we have found our go to Thai restaurant from now on.
