Very much a top notch place to bring your special someone. Do try the egg rolls, truly a culinary delight! more

I wish reviewers would get their restaurants correct. We're talking about KinhDo and not TanhDo. There's another restaurant named ThanhDo that I've been to once and that was one too many IMO! As my headline eludes to KinhDo is amazing. I love their Pad Thai, and their Egg Rolls are a must. My wife and I used to dine there several times a month until we moved out of the neighborhood. It's a long drive for us now - Rochester - but, it's well worth it. Writing this review is starting up my cravings. I guess we'll be going there tomorrow! Pros: Friendly wait staff and great food Cons: Too far away more

My boyfriend and I used to LOVE TanhDo. Over time the quality really went down hill. The food often looks like it has been sitting out all day and if you order take out-check it before you leave because they tend to give you only half an order and pick out all the good stuff. I have to agree with hry85 about the sauce. It is totally ketchup,soy/oyster sauce and water! eeew. On a recent visit our server added a 20% gratuity to our table of two without telling us. I feel like this was totally a sneaky attempt at getting a double tip. That is SO wrong. So watch out, if you do go here add up your bill before you pay!!! Overall though I say it's not even worth your money. Pros: convenient location Cons: sneaky servers more

Service was so-so, egg rolls okay but not worth the price. I ordered sweet & sour chicken and was unpleasantly surprised to find the sauce tasted like watery ketchup. Chicken pieces were also too doughy. My girlfriend ordered a shrimp and cashew dish and was quite ill the next day. Pros: ok egg rolls, unappetizing entrees Cons: What are the drawbacks? more

Love the egg rolls, chicken wings and the steak/potatoes. The atmosphere is boring. This is well preferred to Chiang Mai Thai or others in the 'hood. Pretty adapted to MN-tastes. If you're looking for something more authentic try Krua in St. Paul or Chai's on the West Bank. more

This is my favorite restaurant when it comes to wanting some good quality pad thai. When I use to live in MN I was a regular customer here and always order the same thing; combination pad thai extra spicy...if you think you had good pad thai, its nothing until you try theirs.... Pros: Quality stir fry dishes and pad thai is awesome! Cons: Not the place to go if you just want a bowl of pho, its only decent here. more

Fresh and tasty food and great prices. Service is always good. BEST eggrolls in town!!!!!! A must try for all. Pros: Great fresh and tasty food:) Cons: Parking:( more

I saw an average review for Kinhdo, and I had to protest. This place is one of the best kept secrets of the cities that's right in front of everyone's nose. Although the decor and exterior aren't quite as glitzy as some places down the street and the cuisine doesn't have the cute dollop of brie cream garnished with frisee that you find downtown, the food is so fresh and fantastic, that you'll be surprised the bill is half of what you'd spend someplace fancier. Portions are hearty, the atmosphere is pleasant, and the service is warm and prompt. The menu may seem run-of-the-mill, but the selection is large, and the food you get has a unique characteristic that separates it from King ""Stuff your face with wantons in the mall."" The flavors are distinct with spices neatly proportioned and a strong sense of fresh herbs. I've eaten at my fair share of East Asian places, and the food at Kinhdo can match wits with some of the more ""designer"" destination restaurants. Definitely try thier curry dishes. They boast a good kick without sending smoke out your ears. Thier egg-rolls are wrapped in an unusually crisp and flaky shell and sport a zesty fish sauce. The soup is a bit mediocre. Good veggie options. Not quite the place to go for your diamond jubilee, but certainly a thrifty yet smart restaurant that should impress the most discerning guest, unless they're more concerned about the diamonds on the soles of their shoes than the food. Pros: Great food, Reasonable Price, Versatile - not formal but smart Cons: No delivery, Exterior not spectacular, Menu is diverse, but nothing exotic more

I could do shots of their fish sauce! So tasty. The Lemon Grass Beef is one of my favorites as well. I've always gotten good service there. I'm eating take out from Kinhdo tonight! Yum. Pros: Good food, Fast Cons: They could throw in a few more packs of soy sauce. more

The title describes it. Food here is average with their menu ranging between Vietnamese and American-Chinese. If you're not discriminating and just hungry for something other than burgers n fries, than this is a decent place. If you're hunting for genuine Asian cuisine, go somewhere else. On the bright side, prices are decent and servings are generous. Pros: Prices, serving sizes, wait times Cons: nothing to distinguish itself from the other dime-a-dozen Asian places around town more

Kinh Do has been my favorite asian restaurant since I was 6 years old. I grew up eating the sauteed beef with potatos. If you have kids, they will probably love it...just remember to hold the onions. That is still my favorite dish to get their. They really do have the best egg rolls I've ever tasted and I love their fish sauce...I've tried to make it at home but I never get it just right. The egg rolls over rice noodle is also fabulous and priced under $7. Kinh Do has a huge menu to suit everyone's needs from the young to the old to vegetarian. The price is right, I'm always seated promptly and treated courteously. Pros: fresh and tasty food more

My wife & I both love Kinhdo, because everything we get there always taste fresh. Unlike other asian restaurants (strip mall variety) Kinhdo uses fresh vegetables and higher quality meat. The lemon grass beef is a personal favorite, because it has such a great aroma and flavor and the Pad Thai is some of the best in the TwinCities. We only get take out so I cant tell you what the service is like in the restaurant. Pros: Fresh, quick, Great Flavors Cons: Parking more

This has been a favorite for as many years as they have been in business. The food is excellent and there is something for everyone. I take out-of-town vistors here as a matter of course, and they beg to go back. The servers are not always the most prompt, but it fits the style of this wonderful laid back place. Asian food is not fast food after all. The egg rolls, the rice noodle salads, beef and potatoes, vegetarian egg fu yung are all highly recommended. The waitstaff are friendly and delightful. It doesn't get better than this. Pros: Inexpensive, quiet Cons: minimal parking more

My favorite egg roll in the Twin Cities! Everything else is good and fresh but just above average. Need more rice noodle dishes. Did I write how much I love the imperial egg rolls here?? more
