About Kao Oriental Food

Kao Oriental Food Restaurant, commonly known as Kao Oriental Food, is one of those places I like to bring up when someone asks for a Thai restaurant that feels relaxed yet full of character in Santiago. Located at Av. La Dehesa 1201, 7690277 Santiago, Lo Barnechea, Región Metropolitana, Chile, this spot blends familiar Thai flavors with a modern, welcoming atmosphere that works just as well for a casual lunch as it does for a laid-back dinner. When I talk about Kao Oriental Food, I usually mention how easy it is to fit into different routines, because you can stop by for a quick bite, settle in for a relaxed dine-in experience, or order takeaway or delivery when staying in feels like the better plan. The vibe leans Thai without feeling forced, and the menu is designed to be approachable, which makes it a good pick whether you’re already into Asian cuisine or just starting to explore it. I also like pointing out the service options, especially outdoor seating on days when you want to slow things down, plus no-contact delivery that keeps everything convenient and flexible. Drinks are part of the experience too, with options like beer, alcohol, and coffee pairing nicely with small plates and late-night food that feel perfect for sharing. As someone introducing the place, I find it easy to describe Kao Oriental Food as approachable, flavorful, and consistent, a restaurant that fits naturally into everyday plans while still feeling like a treat, especially for anyone exploring Lo Barnechea and looking for Thai food that doesn’t try too hard yet still delivers on taste and comfort, making it a solid option for friends, families, and solo diners who enjoy good food without the fuss of formality, right in one of Santiago’s most active neighborhoods where convenience and quality tend to matter just as much as flavor and atmosphere.

I needed to kill time nearby when i stumbled upon this restaurant. I ordered the Pad Thai w Tofu and was stunned: it was delicious!!! Great and friendly service and made my day! It’s great when a place surprises you like this.

It is all about food!! Excellent red curry very tasty and with the right level of spices, served by very friendly staff!! The place is more like a take away zone, but sitting is overall fine.

Food very good, what you promise is what you get. Only the appetizers (empanadas and arrollado primavera) were with too much oil...
