Loved everything from the spring rolls to the coconut soup to the evil jungle and Thai iced tea. More

I had read many reviews for Keo's and friends had recommended it, the restaurant itself had a lovely feel and the staff were very attentive, however I was somewhat disappointed b the food. I have eaten at many Thai restaurants at home in Australia and overseas and I can honestly say that I found it quite forgettable. One of the... More

Heard so much about this place and ended up really disappointed . Food was over battered with little flavor . In fact the soft shell crab (which is usually my favorite ) was so hard and bland and dry I could not eat it. Maybe we were just unlucky with our choices but I suggest staying away from the crispy...

My husband and I dined at this restaurant because it was close to our hotel, offered outdoor seating, and the decor is quite pretty. We were immediately seated at the window/patio area, and we enjoyed watching the people walk past us. (The restaurant is on a busy street, so do not expect complete serenity.). The service was friendly and helpful.... More

Used to love Keo's, especially when they just opened over on Kapahulu Avenue and before they started catering to tourists who can't take genuine Thai food. Now, even the Hot offerings are pretty tame, suitable for Grandma. But, maybe that's their target audience now. More

Mediocre food, so-so service and high prices make for a trifecta to be avoided. Tiki torches and nice ambience are not enough to mitigate. More

I eat Thai food all the time and this is one of the best places I've ever been. It's a bit on the expensive side but I find it's worth it when it's good. I had the red curry with chicken and loved it! My friend had the green curry and loved it. You can't go wrong! More

Wife's meal was perfect but mine was simply TOOOOOO hot and it was only with some of my wife's rice and a coconut type milk drink recommended by the... More

Although on a busy street, this restaurant has always been a wonderful experience. the whole right side of the restaurant opens up to the sidewalk, giving it a nice open air feeling. The interior is profusely decorated with tropical flowers grown on the owner's property, giving it a very finished, upscale appearance, for a thai restaurant. It feels special, and... More
