Took my brother for his bday from a recommendation from a friend. Place is dimly lit inside with a club vibe to it. The kitchen literally looked like a Hells Kitchen TV and was extremely organized and clean. Our waiter was great with introducing us to the menu with recommendations. We didn’t end up ordering any appetizers but we did order 4 Entrées. We order the Phat Krapao which had a kick to the throat so we got milk tea and sticky rice to help cool it down. We’ll flavored and added the roti with it. We also ordered the Lamb Sausage which was very herby and a tad dry but very fresh. We also had the Gai Golae. Chicken was cooked perfectly but I just wanted the skin to be flamed a tad more for the crispy texture. Very light and refreshing. The star here is definitely the Crispy Fried Ribs. This place literally nailed that and gave you a mouth full of flavor with that bite. 10/10. Best ribs I’ve had and using the lemon basil and apple salad on top is pure genius. That flavor combo made us want to order the dish 3x more. We are definitely coming back. For dessert my brother got a coconut mango ice cream which shockingly was exceptional. We will be coming back. Job well done and our waiter was great too!

Drove up from Columbus to try out this restaurant. My mother is not an adventurous eater and she would not stop raving about our meal. Definitely try the Thai milk tea and crispy fish!! Can’t wait to visit again, this was a fantastic meal and experience

Wonderful atmosphere, great service; food flavorful with an array of delicious flavors. We chose the tomato salad which was super fresh, and the coconut curry noodles and chicken and the bread a must have!

Me and my gf had the tasting menu and hands down taste wise one of the best experiences from a restaurant I’ve ever had. Every taste besides the fish and short rib was a taste I’ve never experienced or had before. The spices in the food were amazing. I will say for the first 3 courses the spices were a little on the hotter side but that was a good thing. The greens on all the courses were so good and fresh. Like I don’t like cabbage at all but the cabbage they served actually was solid and I hate cabbage. The appetizer and desert were so good. Will definitely come again in future. The price is a bit much but I would say worth it.(FYI they do automatically add the 20% tip)

The dining area is pretty small. The seating was a bit cramped and the large table right next to us was very noisy.

The food was all very good with the exception of the fish, which had quite a few bones in it that kind of put you off wanting to eat it. The ribs were amazing though.

Worth a visit just for the ribs, they were that good.

They also have a bar where you first come in, but we just went in and sat down to eat, so I can’t speak to the quality of bar.

This is such a cool spot, feels like a secret being in there. The vibes were awesome and the meal was very unique. We did the chefs tasting menu. I’ll say that some of the dishes were not well balanced, overly sour or overly spicy. But overall everything was very good. I think next time I would just order off the menu. The ice cream was the best !!

Outstanding food, and good service overall…loved the bold flavors
Outside was dirty, and ill maintained. Tall metal fence and the debris outside made me question if this was a good place to visit, but we went in due to prior recommendations from friends…

Takoi was fantastic. The khao soi, makhwan fried chicken and khanom krok were all delicious and full of flavor. A great spot for unique Thai-inspired dishes.

I came in really excited to try Takoi because of the strong reputation and reviews, and I wanted to enjoy it. The space itself is great — the atmosphere and overall vibe are very cool and well done.

Unfortunately, the food was genuinely disappointing. This wasn’t an issue of price, but of execution. The ribs were so dry that I had to spit them out because I couldn’t chew them. That level of quality is simply unacceptable for any restaurant serving this style of food. The other dishes were not any better.

The cocktails were good, and our waitress was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated.

While the ambiance and service were strong, the food itself fell far short of expectations. Based on this experience, I would not return.

This place is amazing! From the outside it looks like something you’re not expecting. Once you walk in your transported to a new and totally different vibe. The food is amazing and the only thing more amazing is the staff. Be warned there is an automatic 20% gratuity charged to everybody regardless of party size. When stores add automatic gratuity to small parties I typically give one star because the staff isn’t motivated. I will say however at the staff here absolutely earned more than 20% with their super friendliness, attentivness and amazing food!
