Kun Yay Thai Imbiss in Köln

I ate very delicious pad thai and it was served quickly, even though several dishes were being prepared in front of me.

Incredibly friendly service and the best Thai food in the area!

The owner was very aggressive towards a customer. An older customer was speaking Spanish on the phone through in-ear headphones. He apparently wanted to order for someone else. When he tried to place the order, she ignored him and asked the customer behind him what he wanted. The older customer glanced at her briefly without saying anything, whereupon she aggressively shouted at him: "I'm supposed to be serving the customer now, aren't I?" The food is okay, though it does contain MSG (it's listed on the menu). You can't expect much for the price. It's fine for occasional meals, but with that kind of atmosphere and behavior... Just because she had to work in the kitchen on that hot summer day. There was no apology, explanation, or anything like that. The customer waited a moment and just quietly said, "It's okay," and apologized to the other customer for not hearing him. He had the headphones in his ear on the same side. He slowly left with his head down. She looked surprised that he spoke perfect German and then said nothing. I left shortly afterward. I was there quite often, also out of solidarity. I found this behavior unacceptable.

Always delicious food, friendly people, and good value for money. If you don't care much about a fancy atmosphere, this is the place for you.

Absolutely delicious! The Pad Thai is the best thing to try here! We usually order by phone and pick it up; it works perfectly and there's no waiting time.

Friendly staff, delicious food and fair prices!!

The food tastes just like in Thailand. I've rarely eaten so well at a Thai restaurant in Germany. A very large selection of dishes at reasonable prices. I was very pleasantly surprised and will definitely come back.

I'm a huge fan! The people are super friendly, the prices are good, and the food is delicious! My favorites are the dishes with oyster sauce and peanut sauce! 🔥

We happened to be passing by Sawaddee with our children today and decided to eat there. It was the best decision. The waitress and cook were very friendly, especially with the children, and the food was exceptionally delicious and fresh. We will definitely be back.

To the previous commenter, Alexander Lisin: the staff don't seem annoyed at all; they're doing a great job. No one's trying to be something they're not, and everyone has their own personality. No one's forcing you to eat there. The food is generous and very tasty. There's plenty of choice, so there should be something for everyone. The prices are very fair for the portion sizes. You can even have a friendly chat now and then. If you're looking for a quick, hot, fresh meal, this is the place to go. A really great snack bar. I highly recommend it.

The food was delicious and everything was freshly prepared. The service was super friendly and attentive.

Very tasty, I can definitely recommend it, the portion size is great.

Simply delicious and friendly. I always enjoy going there.

It's always delicious and I always love coming back.

Extremely delicious dishes, everything tastes freshly cooked with fresh ingredients.

The food is absolutely phenomenal. You can save yourself the plane ticket to Thailand. Amazing value for money.

An unassuming Thai snack bar that impresses with its good food at fair prices.

Best Thai Kitchen ever!! The food is exceptionally good, the owner cooks, washes up, and serves herself – something you never see anywhere else! The atmosphere is calm and relaxed, just you and your food, no distractions. A must-visit when in Cologne! Prices are great too!

A true delight every time, with unsurpassed freshness! The chef is not only a wonderful person, but truly a treasure for all of Mülheim. A must for anyone who loves authentic Thai cuisine.

Good food! Authentic, delicious, and affordable.

Excellent facilities. The food was top-notch. The owner was very friendly. We'll be back. 100 out of 100 stars.

It was fantastic! Really good food and a very pleasant atmosphere. The chef was very friendly. We felt well looked after.

Super delicious! Good meat, fresh vegetables! Everything was top-notch.

Place is small but cute. Food is amazing. Service is great. Don't just order, talk to the chef, she gives great advice on what to order. And the food is really GREAT!!! Portions are big. Order Pad Thai, my personal favorite here❤️ definitely coming back, definitely recommending to friends, definitely ordering a take out. Worth every cent spent here.

Çok food, very nice cook, highly recommended!

We were there yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! The owner was very friendly and accommodating! Highly recommended.

Sawadee never fails to impress me. Great, fresh, and super tasty dishes at a very fair price. I love the Lab Gai 😊 as a starter. The warmth of Gung and her team is also unique. I used to always order for pickup, but now I prefer to eat in. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Very tasty 😋 Highly recommended and very friendly. The prices are fair.

Great restaurant with delicious food. The young lady named Gung is an excellent cook.

Very delicious food! The Pad Thai tastes really good and authentic, just like you'd expect from Thailand. For me, it's the best Pad Thai in all of Cologne. The place is simply decorated; it's really all about the flavor, and it's top-notch!

Super friendly, super delicious! Highly recommended!

Very nice owner and very tasty food.

Very tasty food, I can only recommend it.

I had some delicious Thai food here today. It was my first time here since the change of ownership, and the food seems to be of higher quality than before. Great value for money, I'll be back.

The previous restaurant was already quite expensive for the small portions. Now, with the new owner, it's become even more expensive, and the portions are even smaller. The taste is good, but you can get more for the money elsewhere.

Wonderful again. I eat at this restaurant regularly. And I simply love that I can trust that the food will be well-made. I was able to order something 10 minutes before closing time. And I heard the owner empathetically interact with her customers and correct mistakes made by customers who had ordered incorrectly. I love this place and can only recommend it.

Finally great Thai food in Mülheim, thank you so much!

We ordered 2 takeaway dishes and didn't have to wait long. The food was super delicious, the prices were absolutely fair and the owner was super nice too! We'd love to come back.

Super tasty, totally inexpensive and very warm people :) we will definitely be back!

If you are traveling in Cologne Mülheim and like authentic Thai food, you shouldn't walk past this small, rather inconspicuous shop. The food tastes to die for. It's fresh, the portions are generous and all dishes can be prepared vegan. The vegetables are crunchy and the tofu is crispy. The wok pans are washed after each preparation. The owners are warm and super friendly. And if all that isn't good enough, the prices are also ridiculously low. No dish costs more than 10 euros... but you can hardly cook it yourself. Especially if, like me, you can't cook.

Just great. When you enter, you are immediately greeted by the smells of fresh curries and soups. I received a very friendly welcome and quickly got my takeaway food. Really delicious and authentic. Not a cheap sweet and sour place. A great addition to Müllem. I look forward to my next visit. Thank you!

Very fresh, tasty food at very humane prices! I ordered takeout and it was ready very quickly. The shop and the kitchen, which you can look into, are very clean. The owners are very very friendly, I will definitely come back :)

Super tasty food and friendly people.

Super tasty authentic Thai! Always my pleasure. (Perhaps also for delivery in the future?)

Super delicious, super nice! A great addition to Müllem ❤️

I've tried many Thai restaurants, and Sawaddee's has had the most authentic food of all. Very well seasoned and quickly prepared. Pickup is also available.

Wir haben heute zum ersten mal den neuen Thai in Mülheim ausprobiert und sind begeistert. Before (other owner) we didn't like it here at all - everything tasted the same, like coconut milk with curry (powder). Now it tastes authentic and aromatic (sometimes really spicy). Der Papayasalat war einer der Besten, den ich außerhalb von Thailand gegessen habe. Bitte weiterhin so geschmackvoll Thai kochen und nicht "zu deutsch werden". Ich freue mich sehr über einen so guten neuen Essensspot in Köln Mülheim. We'll be back! Prices fair and family very nice!

Very tasty and authentic Thai food! The price-performance ratio is good and the owner is super nice. Absolute recommendation!

Super friendly, super fast. We order here weekly and we are completely satisfied even under the new owners. Can only be recommended!

The new owners are very nice. I like the food very much.

Extremely fast, super tasty and cheap. Perfect takeaway centrally in Mülheim!

Super tasty, super authentic and super nice staff. 10 out of 10 :)

Always great food, always friendly!

Once and not again, it's a shame. Food too watery and bland. The man was friendly but the food as you can see is nothing special.

Update January 2025......has gotten even worse. No taste... bland, the duck must have died unhappily... there was no comparison to before. So a few years ago, it was one of the best Thai snacks in Cologne. But now they have slacked off incredibly much. I ate the 22 today... but the duck pieces were wobbly and poorly seasoned. No, that's not the way it was. It's a shame.

I ordered online and received a confirmation. The store was closed despite its opening hours.

Food is OK, but there isn't enough meat on the meal, but if you want to experience the unfriendly man behind a counter in Cologne live, this is the place for you. Therefore only 2 stars. If things improve, I'll increase it

Was with a friend and we had the fried noodles with tofu and the Glass-noodles with some chicken. The overall portion size was quite good for the price. But the quality of the frying oil was a little bit sub-paar and the tofu wasn't marinated properly at all. The vegetables and the other ingredients seemed fresh enough and the veggies was just crispy and soft enough. Would give a four if the tofu was marinated (enough) and the oil seemed a bit less saturated. Otherwise great for students etc.

We shop here often because the dishes are fresh and tasty. But you shouldn't expect real Thai food, despite the authentic chef. The criticism expressed here about the sauces (thin, not very seasoned) is particularly true. However, relevant information comes to nothing. Because the opinion of the customers doesn't really matter to the gentleman at the counter. He only radiates a (non-binding) friendliness as long as you order and pay. True to the motto "I'm only doing this so I can finance my next stay in Thailand as quickly as possible". And there are quite a few of them. That's why you should always expect to suddenly find yourself in front of a closed door. You should not expect advance notice or information on your own homepage. The quirk of not opening on Saturday of all days, supposedly because then you wouldn't make any sales, also fits in with this attitude. The fact that there is no end to the hustle and bustle in Buchheim on Saturdays is a gift.

Called 4 times and no one picked up.

It does take away your craving, the food is not delicious and the truth is that it takes away my desire to eat Thai. Green curry is not their specialty

The food was very tasty. Price-performance ratio is good in my opinion. Glad I found this snack bar.

Delicious Thai takeaway food. It's always fresh and the two owners are always friendly. I always order number 44. I love it. Big recommendation.

INCREDIBLY GOOD!!!! Fresh, delicious, vegan, vegetarian, omnivorous <3 Update: 2024 food is still delicious, authentic and fresh! The staff is always friendly and up for a chat :-)

Very tasty food at very good prices.

Food tastes like nothing...the spices are clearly missing. The owner is totally unfriendly....I wonder what some people are used to here 😂😂😂 ......never again 👎

Sehr leckeres Essen. Bedingungen ist immer freundlich. Wirklich ein Geheimtipp!

Es ist qualitativ nicht der allerbeste asiatische Imbiss, aber trotzdem ein guter. Kann man machen.

Sehr gutes Essen,schnell zubereitet, super Preis. Für Vegetarier und Veganer absolut zu empfehlen.

Es ist lecker. Es geht schnell. Die Leute sind freundlich. Was will man mehr ? Und das direkt am Rhein! Preistechnisch absolut fair! Lohnt sich.

Immer viel frisches Gemüse, Preis - Leistung ist top !

Hauptgerichte waren gut, Ente war zwar nicht bespnders knusprig, aber lecker. Gemüse auch sehr gut. Die Hähnchenspieße waren ein Reinfall, die hätten wir uns besser gespart. Vermutlich ist nicht alles top, aber wir kommen wieder.

Sehr sauber und sehr freundlich leider war das Fleisch noch roh und die Erdnusssose war auch eher eine Art Suppe...

Kenne den Laden schon ein paar Jahren und meist besseres Essen als im Restaurant erhalten. Klein aber feine Küche. Der Laden Läd jetzt nicht ein, aber ein ultimativer Geheimtipp.

Immer lecker, günstig, schnell zubereitet und freundliches Personal. Esse sehr gerne und häufig hier. Nur zu empfehlen.

Großartiges und dazu noch preiswertes, frisch zubereitetes Essen!

Leider kann ich es überhaupt nicht weiter empfehlen, habe mich von den positiven Rezensionen täuschen lassen. Wir haben zwei Gerichte bestellt und haben zwei komplett verschiedene Sachen bekommen, als dass wir bestellt hatten. Dies haben wir leider erst zu Hause bemerkt, ich meine, wer macht vor Ort die Verpackung auf. Unsere Gerichte sollten mit Kocos Milch sein, aber von Soße war gar nicht die Rede es war fast überhaupt keine Sauce drin. Geschmacklich war es auch sehr fad. Und dann noch in einem Imbiss für zwei Gerichte 23 € zahlen, waren wir echt enttäuscht und sauer. Tipp für das Restaurant/Imbiss: Bitte die richtigen Gerichte anfertigen. Bitte anständig würzen. Bitte viel Soße rein machen. Ja

Für eure Ente möchte ich sterben...wenn es draußen kalt & Regnerisch ist...

Kleiner Imbiss keine Toilette keine Einladende Athmo aber lecker frisch

Neuer Besitzer total freundlich. Gerne nie wieder!

Hervorragende Thai-Cuisine! Gute Portionen, frisch und Authentisch... Spitzen Preise und ganz klar zu empfehlen!

Super gut immer schnell und sehr lekker...

Thai food made buy a real Thai cook. Gotta love it

War das erste mal hier und sehr zufrieden mit der wirklich grossen Portion Ente mit Gemüse... Einziger Nachteil: Mein letztes, geringes Bargeld reichte doch noch, um das Essen mitnehmen zu können.

Schlechtestes Essen seit langem. Nicht zu empfehlen

Hätte gern einmal probiert..jedoch kein Lieferdienst. Sehr Schade.

Weder ist der Anblick von außen einladend, noch von innen. Das Essen ist eine schiere Zumutung. Einiges, was nicht frittiert sein sollte, wohnt in der Friteuse. Das schlechteste Thai was ich je gegessen habe.

Lovely family owned business with authentic food and vegan options

Richtig leckeres Essen und authentische Besitzer

Gutes Essen für einen günstigen Preis.

Sehr lecker und faire Preise 👍 weiter so

Das Essen schmeckt immer top, mein Favorit ist die Nr. 44. Die Portionen sind okay und es werden frische Zutaten verwendet. Ja, der Laden an sich sieht nicht gerade top aus, tut dem Geschmack aber keinen Abbruch. Und: Der Mann schuldet niemandem Freundlichkeit oder ein Dauerlachen. Er macht seinen Job und gut ist.

Leckere Authentische Thai Küche, dazu sehr preisgünstig, 10 Mal besser als jeder Lieferdienst in der Gegend

Lecker! Die Einrichtung ist lieblos, es könnte etwas schöner aussehen.

Der Schein trügt! Was von außen nicht sehr einladend aussieht kann ich jedem empfehlen trotzdem zu probieren!!! Für mich einer der besten Thai-Imbisse in Köln. Habe mich schon viel durch die Karte gegessen, bei den verschiedenen Currys ist für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei und auf Wunsch gibts alles auch in (wirklich) scharf. Zum abholen ist das Essen immer sehr schnell fertig (meistens 15-20 min) und das alles zu einem sehr fairen Preis! Die manchmal etwas „mürrische“ Art der Besitzer muss man mögen oder auch nicht. Aber das Essen ist Top!

Sehr lecker, super hart arbeitende Besitzer!

Habe mehrmals versucht anzurufen und keiner ist zu erreichen. So leider nicht weiter zu empfehlen.

Korrektur im Herbst 2020, leider ist das Essen mittlerweile ziemlich geschmacksneutral. Muss mir jetzt was neues suchen. Schmeckt ganz hervorragend, Betriebsferien bis Mitte August 2019

Es schmeckt gut. Die Inhaber könnten ein klein wenig freundlicher sein.

Bestes Thai-Essen in Mülheim. Für jeden Geschmack was dabei. Besonders die handgemachten Frühlingsrollen sind super lecker.
