Word on the street
What locals are saying
King Street Foods occupies a sensible niche on the tourist-heavy stretch of King near Marion Square, serving a wide-ranging Asian menu — Thai curries, Vietnamese pho, tonkatsu ramen, sushi rolls, and poke bowls — under one casual roof. The pad krapow, red curry, and drunken noodles consistently draw the loudest praise, while the sushi holds up better than you'd expect from a multi-cuisine operation. The breadth of the menu is a double-edged sword: it captures the lunch crowds efficiently, but it also signals a kitchen stretched across several culinary traditions rather than mastering any one.
