Dok Khao COLUMBIA

Had the most amazing meal tonight! 🌟 We dove into the “Hunger” dish and the Flank Steak Pad Thai — and wow, did they deliver! 😋🔥 Every bite was packed with flavor, from the savory, perfectly seasoned steak to that irresistible sweet‑and‑tangy Pad Thai sauce. If you haven’t tried these yet, add them to your must-eat list ASAP. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! 🙌🍽️

Delicious food. Service was great. Lots of tables fit into a smaller location, however decor is beautiful. Highly recommend for any fan of Thai food. You can choose the heat you want in your dishes.

It is on the expensive side, but it’s Columbia,MD and it’s by the mall.

My new favorite Thai restaurant. It’s a 30 minute drive for me but would drive further for their drunken noodles.

Great meal, amazing venue wish the crispy duck has more portions.

Great food, and it arrived super fast!

Our waiter Chew (spelling?) really made the experience amazing. He's knowledgeable, got our order 100% correct by memory, attentive, and most of all fun!

The restaurant is casually but beautifully decorated with inflated beach balls and floats on the ceiling.

Beautiful restaurant, incredible service. Crybaby noodles were actually amazing.

The best Thai food in Howard county and surrounding areas. Be prepared for a long wait on the weekend evenings because the place is always packed because of how amazing/fresh the food is. Super authentic Thai cuisine coming from someone that has tasted the food in Thailand. Highly recommend. The street noodles is our favorite dish along with the Tom Kha Gai soup 🤤

We went when they just opened on a Friday and were seated immediately. The atmosphere was very festive for Christmas. The staff were friendly and very efficient. The food was 10/10. We had the curry puffs, the cry baby noodles, and the lamb massaman curry. I don’t usually eat lamb, but the way they braised the lamb made it practically melt in my mouth. Will be coming back again to try more!

100/10 would definitely recommend. My mom on I went on an early dinner date tonight and we were blown away by both the dishes and every drink. Our server was Earth, pretty cool name and he was so awesome! He recommended all of his favorite dishes (which we went with) he took really good care of us. Cindy is the manager and she was walking around checking in on tables and stopped to recommend the Love Youzu since I don't drink alcohol very much. It is now MY FAVORITE DRINK. It wad so tasty and fleshing!

The place is decorated with a holiday theme, it’s gorgeous inside. I could not stop taking photos. Literally from the time you walk in the door, the entire restaurant is beautifully decorated.

Crab Fried Rice
Branzino
Kapaw (chicken)
Spicy Eggplant (pork) I would never order this but my mom wanted to try it -- 10/10 easy. It's delicious
Dump cake
Chocolate lava
Dump cake -- flavor was so unique and I couldn't stop eating it!!

Everything we ordered was hit and tasted so fresh! I cannot wait to check out some other menu items! They have a forever customer in me!!

Dok Khao is a beautiful restaurant with great food. It's one of those restaurants you would like to take your guests to, in Columbia/EC area. Merriweather District where it is located is also very vibrant and happening.

Their vegetarian fare is fresh and tasty. Service can be better though.

I ordered Ka Pow Fried rice - less spicey. It was okay . I wouldn't order it again, though. It wasn't flavorful and lacked the usual kick of sauce that I've had before at other Thai restaurants . I would definitely go back again to try something else . I'm not giving up on this place yet 🙂. I'll review another dish on my next try .

This place was incredible! The server was kind and attentive. The food came out impressively quick and was delicious! We ordered the egg nog shots, the steamed dumplings, lamb curry noodles and mango sticky rice. Everything was a 10/10. Adding this restaurant to my list of favs.

The food was terrible, very over cooked and sweet, which was weird because it was shrimp fried rice. This was take out. If I had ate in I would have sent it back, to far to go back. We had to throw it out. Such a waste !!! Total 50.00.
