The pho was one of the best I've had in a while. The broth is good enough on it's own. They didn't skim the oil out of the broth so it has a nice fatty flavor to it. There was more meat than there was

We were in town for a concert and this place was across from our hotel! Seriously, the Pho was so good and my dish was really good as well. I forgot the name but I have a picture.

Quite literally one of the worst meals my boyfriend and I have ever had. We are big fans of south Asian cuisine. The spring rolls were not good. Way too much lettuce, barely any noodles at all. The meatball pho was also horrible. The noodles were way over cooked and the meatballs were so tough. Will not be coming back here.

I come here at least once a month just because it is so good. I have NEVER received a wrong order, bad food, or lousy service. The family that runs Kai does an impeccable job and I’m so grateful they decided to set up shop downtown. Great vegetarian selection as well, and super accommodating to dietary restrictions!
Place is legit for Vietnamese food - had the pho and steamed dumplings, to go for dinner. Made it back to hotel.. pho still hot, dumplings as well. Solid choice if you’re in the area for dinner but certain lunch as well.

Great food and atmosphere! Great vegan options as well!
Really good food. This is the 3x I've been here, and every time I get something new, it is definitely delicious. The Pho is phenomenal and the garlic butter fried chicken ? wings off the charts. The spring rolls are legit as well. Great Peanut SauceVegetarian options: Anything you can think of you can vegetarian.
Kai is always consistently a great place for Vietnamese food! The atmosphere of the restaurant is super cozy, and the staff are incredibly nice and helpful when it comes to explaining some of the dishes they have. I have been talked into trying a lot of different things that I now love here based on their recommendations, I can’t say enough about how great this family-owned restaurant is!

I wish I had taken photos of our food but we were starved and dug right in. Kai is a downtown haven for some of Tulsa’s best Vietnamese food. We shared the steamed dumplings, Vietnamese egg rolls, and Pho Sate. The dumplings were so flavorful, tender and the dipping sauce was delish. I especially like the crispy garlic on top. The eggrolls have this distinctly tender filling with uber crispy exterior. I could have eaten ten. And the pho was exceptional - brothy but creamy and spicy. The beef was super tender. Everything tasted super fresh and hand made. I always forget about this gem and I can’t wait to come back!Parking: If you enter the lot next door from Denver, you get a ticket and it’s validated to park there as a visitor. Free as long as there are open spots.
Good food. Waitress could have been more interested. Seemed bored or bothered with my non noon hour

What a great stop in for lunch!!! We arrived after the noon hour and they were busy. We were told a 15 min wait but we opted for the patio which we were seated almost immediately. It was a bit chilly on the patio but the sun was shining so it didn't matter to us. We started with egg rolls and wings! Both were very good and if definitely recommend them. For my lunch I chose the D4 - Chicken Stir Fry, that was a great selection! I would definitely make a return visit to try more on the menu!!!
