Kalaya Philadelphia Reviews
The service was great so were the drinks & food.
I would definitely go back. Unfortunately one needs to make reservations way in advance. Was there for my birthday.
I suggest you give it a try
We went here on a Thursday night. It was pretty crowded. The service was really good. I was very impressed at how well coordinated the staff was. It was very attentive and they made very helpful suggestions. We had many many dishes from appetizer
Water
Water (and lots of it) required for your meal. Flavors on steroids and a tad too much salt for most dishes. Great service and atmosphere though.
All Good.
Another excellent dinner with another couple. Their first time, our second. You really can't go wrong here though take your time ordering as the food comes out a bit too quickly.
You're paying for a beautiful place, but the food helps
-pro: great food, great cocktails, chic environment -con: very pricey Coming from out of town we wanted to try some of the best food in Philly and got recs for this place. The inside has some beautiful art and light fixtures. I love the atmosphere a
Best Thai food out here
Was recommended this spot and told it was one of the best places in philly, where I grew up. This place did not disappoint. Everyone should at least try some Thai quality if you live around here.
Flavorful Thai food that excels. Go there.
Awesome Thai food. Flavorful, sensibly spicy. The branzino was to die for, with some heat, moderate citrus, perfectly cooked. Other items comparable. Food nothing like the usual neighborhood Thai restaurants that predominate. Moderately large venue
Great Food, but......
Food at Kalaya is very tasty and unique with an incredible mix of flavors and spices. Nothing we had was overly spicy which was nice for Thai based food. The service was very good as well. The decor is okay, some fun stuff but not particularly int
A real taste sensation
You may think you know Thai food. But Kalaya will give you an education. And an amazing meal to boot. The flavors come alive with every dish--done thoughtfully, fancifully but without pretense. Despite the din of a packed dining room and people hove
All we hoped for
What a great dinner. It was all that I hoped for in all ways. The food was outstanding and service was very good. The room was lovely and a great crowd. Flowere dumplings were amazing and hot, just short of too hot but hot. Crab and huge scallop curr
Enjoyed the food, but a little pricey.
Recently dined at this restaurant with family and really enjoyed the food. All the food is healthy and very tasty but felt it was a little pricey. Being a vegetarian I really appreciated all the different veggie and vegan choices on the menu. I di

Stunning Food
I had an amazing meal at Kalaya, every dish had the wow factor. The flavours were incredible - so fresh & zingy. Their curries certainly have bite! Don’t miss the Lum Yong cocktail & their showstopper iced dessert, Nam Kaeng Sai. Service wa
Your taste buds will thank you!
REAL Thai food!! Each dish was better than the next!! This is the best Thai food you will find outside of Thailand. Don’t go expecting American-Thai food … just be open and enjoy all the flavors!!! Only small complaint was that this dishes came o
Thai One on Here!
Kalaya lives up to the hype! It really is that good. A true party in your mouth! We had the spicy chicken dish, oyster dish and both types of dumplings. The cod fish bird dumplings were amazing! We can’t wait to return. A must visit when in Ph
Mediocre food, great ambience
Our bar seating was terrible, end of the bar where everyone picks up drinks, my chair was hit numerous times. Also for a high scale restaurant with a top chef, you would think they could do better with catering to vegetarians. Everything was cookie
Service was a 10/10.
Food was delicious. Must try! Closes your going to get to authentic Thai food.
nickel and dime
There is a reason it’s tough to get a reservation- the new location is gorgeous. The food is very good, however as great as it was, there were some oddities and upsells. Our server informed us dumplings come in orders of 5, and encouraged us to add
Never again
Poor hygiene from the wait staff and a very unappealing restroom experience. The same guy that took the plates from another table went and folded someone's napkin without washing their hands. There was someone with a mullet that did the world's worst
Birthday night out
Attend Kalaya last night and it was very impressive. The staff was excellent they all were very attentive to my wife and I. The food was unbelievable, if you don’t eat spicy food please do not try any of their spicy dishes. The grill squid was w
Kalaya was one of the best meals I've had in Philly.
Up until this dinner my knowledge of Thai food was limited to pad Thai and drunken noodles. After eating at Kalaya Thai food takes on a whole new meaning! The main word to describe the food was FLAVORFUL. All of the seafood and veggies were SO fresh
Connect with users posting reservations for Kalaya Philadelphia
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Kalaya Philadelphia. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Kalaya Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Kalaya Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Kalaya Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Kalaya Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
