After visiting Thailand, I’ve been searching for food that tasted as good as what I tried there. The pad Thai took me straight back to Bangkok! Tasted exactly like a restaurant I had eaten at there! And the mango sticky rice is the best I’ve had in the UK so far. Would definitely recommend!

Best thai food Ive ever had in England. And they are kid friendly. They made this crispy chicken plain for my picky eater, and I got to have the most flavorful Tom Kha of my life. 🤤 I am in Thai Heaven. The only thing I don’t recommend is the sticky rice as a side, because they cook it in plastic.

If you’re craving flavorful Thai dishes, Khao Gaeng Thai is worth checking out.
We tried the Pad Thai with chicken and prawns—while the dish had a good mix of textures, it was a little on the sweeter side for our taste, though still enjoyable.🌿🌶 The prawns and chicken were fresh and well-cooked. Tom Kha with chicken was a comforting, creamy bowl of coconut goodness, with just the right amount of aromatic lemongrass and lime.🥥🍲A solid spot for a flavorful Thai meal if you’re in Leeds!

I always wanted to visit this place every time i go to the market as it is always busy with customers! I finally did last week and I really enjoyed it! The service can be a bit hectic but it made up for the delicious Thai tea and Pad Thai meal! Very generous portions with free sauces of the side. I would recommend if you want a delicious lunch or just a quick snack!

Very tasty and nice. Quick and well packaged for takeaway. Seats are available at the shop. The service is good and overall good experience. The spicy foods are not spicy enough if you are used spicy, so ask them to make it proper spicy.

My favourite Thai food in the north east, very authentic Thai home cooking and always a friendly service. Food is freshly prepared and cooked and the taste is up there with the very best. We travel 130 miles round trip to get here and Khao Gaeng Thai is always the highlight of our trip. Must try the Chicken Pad Thai!!!
Could be a bit slow but WORTH IT. Authentic Thai food with reasonable price!!

Came for food with my grandma and would highly recommend! By far the best Thai food in Leeds and we both really enjoyed our meals. The Pad Kee Mao is my favourite and my grandma got the Khao Pad which was also really yummy! Hidden gem in Kirkgate Market- a must try!!

This is a hidden gem in Kirkgate Market. We were delighted to have found this authentic yet affordable Thai restaurant at the market. Their traditional pad Thai (Thai: Pad Thai Boran) and pad gra pao (Basil stir-fried with minced pork) were mouthwatering. Also, you don’t often find traditional pad thai in Leeds. It has a great balance of sweet, salty and tangy flavours in the noodle. The portion was reasonable and it costs just over £13 for two dishes. Can’t wait to go back for other dishes. They have limited seating area, so you might want to take out and find a seating area at the other side of Kirkgate Market.- Service

Damn this place is absolutely fantastic! I can't believe I waited so long before coming. Usually quite busy, has a small seating area to the side. The menu is extensive for such a small place and you can see inside to see it all being prepared fresh. I had the chicken and rice, it was a decent portion size for lunch, and it tasted brilliant, the chicken was soft and tender, perfect! I will be going again, and I encourage others to do so too!- Service
