Bamboo Penny's
Located: 270 W 116th Pl, Leawood, KS 66211
Bamboo Penny's is a popular Thai restaurant in Kansas City/Leawood. The spices, bold flavors, and beautiful plates are major perks to eating at Bamboo Penny's. The Pad See Ew and Yellow Curry are my two favorites dishes to order! The Yellow Curry has the best flavors I've ever tasted. If you are wanting an appetizer, I'd recommend the Tom Kha Soup or the Shrimp in a Blanket plate. Lastly, for dessert, you MUST try the Chocolate Rangoon. Feeling like trying an Ancient Thai dessert? Don't leave without trying the Khanom Chan.
Baramee Thai Bistro
Located: 1810 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City, MO 64108
Baramee Thai Bistro is a popular restaurant in KC and can be found in the Crossroads Art District, a quick drive from downtown. The Baramee Thai Platter is my top recommended choice: mixed appetizers with four Crab Rangoon, 2 Soft Spring Rolls, and 2 Crispy Spring Rolls. If you are looking for extremely fresh spring rolls, Baramee Thai is the place to go!
Cozy Thai Restaurant
Located: 1032 W 103rd St, Kansas City, MO 64114
We ordered the Chicken Pad Thai (hot), Red Curry served with steamed rice (hot), and the crab Rangoon appetizer. Everything was delicious! Out of the dishes, our favorite was the red curry beachside of the creamy sauce and fresh veggies.
Although we ordered the food to go, the service was friendly and the meal was ready to be picked up in a short amount of time. We will be back to eat in person because the restaurant was clean and inviting!

Mali Thai Bistro
Located: 579 SE Melody Ln, Lee's Summit, MO 64063
If you are craving Thai food in Lee's Summit, Mali Thai Bistro should be your top choice! We ordered Pad Thai, Spring Rolls, and Edamame. We requested the Chicken Pad Thai dish to be made as spicy as possible...they weren't playing around! Very spicy but still tasty. The spring rolls were extremely fresh. The edamame was steamed perfectly. We ordered our food for pickup and it was ready on time! Quick and easy to order. Yum yum yum!
