Som Boon Thai Kitchen

We had dinner for two at a new Thai restaurant and ordered Pad See Ew, Basil Pork, and Mango Sticky Rice, all at a medium spice level, which was perfect for our palate. The Pad See Ew was the standout dish of the night, featuring chewy flat noodles and authentic Thai flavors. The Basil Chicken paired well with white rice, though it was slightly dry; next time, we’ll try the pork version, which might be juicier. I also wished for a bit more garlic and fish sauce to enhance the depth of flavor. The Mango Sticky Rice was a delightful way to end the meal. Excellent service and a convenient location. We’ll definitely be back to explore more dishes!

So many places in Houston to eat Thai, and it never gets old trying more. Definitely put this one on the top of my list. Great service and delicious plates with lots of flavor. Very nice atmosphere for two or more.

I recently stopped by and had such a great experience from start to finish. We ordered the Tiger Cut super tender and packed with bold spices definitely a highlight of the night. The fried long beans were extra crispy and addicting, and the fried chicken wings were juicy, perfectly seasoned, and served hot. The combination soup was comforting, rich, and full of flavor ideal if you’re looking for something warm and hearty. The Som Boon Pad Thai with shrimp was one of my favorites it had the perfect balance of sweetness, spice, and umami. You can really tell how fresh everything is. And to wrap it all up, we had the mango sticky rice, which was light, sweet, and beautifully presented. The service was friendly, the ambiance was fun and casual, and the food came out quickly.

While the beef was a touch chewier than I prefer, it didn’t take away from the overall enjoyment of the meal.
