KK Pepper Thai Restaurant - Thai restaurant in Waterford Twp - 4212 Pontiac Lake Rd, USA

Had heard that this is the best Thai place around, and word on the street did not disappoint. Service- very friendly, prompt and didn’t overly check in on us. Vibe- very nice, not busy at all while we were there for lunch. So nice, quiet, and no need to talk loudly. Food- phenomenal. Very fresh, good quality and Full of flavor. Word of caution- the dishes do run hot, the mild “heat” was plenty for myself who doesn’t like a lot of heat. Bathrooms - only one and it’s private (only 1 person at a time of either gender) and that’s very appreciated. Also it was clean. Final Verdict - I would not only go back, but would go out of my way to go back.

Update. I’ve eaten here a good amount of times and tried a lot of their other dishes. I haven’t been able to consistently take photos so will add more in the future: - Pad Thai, Pho, Gang Gai, Pineapple Fried Rice: Easily 5/5 and consistent in taste. - Thai spicy wings app: 2/5. Not crispy and too drenched in the sauce. - Yum E Shan Salad, Chicken Laab Salad: 3/5. Both salads taste similar and not worth reordering… Heads up to ask for sauce on side to avoid saucy greens. Gangpah Special: 2/5. Barely any meat. Sauce is pretty much soup. Lemongrass is overbearing. Restaurant cleanliness: 5/5. Well organized, clean bathrooms and kitchen.

Average Thai food, pad Thai was nice, the pad ped was ok. The tables are a little plain, the interior is very basic

The staff are courteous and friendly. However, that's the only positive thing I could say about this restaurant. My prior order was of pad tai(noodle dish) and seafood combo. That is my usual order each and every time I order from here. I was very disappointed at the portion last time and today as well. I wanted to give then one more try. The seafood combo is $12.99 for their dinner portion. I received little vegetables and very little seafood: 4 shrimp, 2 small scallops, 3 small squid rings. It was mostly the sauce which looks more like soup since that's all I got. I've called the restaurant back but they did not resolve the issue but apologized explaining there's nothing they could do since it's the issue with high seafood prices. I've ordered from other Thai restaurants and they give much better portions. I don't mind the cost as long as you get what you paid for. I'm disappointed once again and will not be returning back to this restaurant. The food taste isn't bad. It's average Thai food rating in terms of taste and service. Some entrees may be served in better proportions, however, be aware when ordering seafood combo. I've added a photo for anyone considering ordering from here.

It is beyond irritating when a resturaunt says there open and they're actually not. This place is notorious for it. Walked in for an order to go( never seen a meal take longer than 10 minutes to be ready - EVER), at 8:35 PM , website says 9PM. The girl asked me how she could help me immediately when I walked in just to tell me they were closed after I asked for a menu. Instead of keeping the "open" light on & advertising 9PM on Google, maybe provide accurate information & effort to the customers.

I have been there twice this week! The Pineapple Curry is amazing, I can't wait to try their other dishes! I do wish they woukd use a better container for the food, spills happen.

Usually a great place but my family did take out of dinner size seafood red curry & garlic pepper chicken. Half filled container and chicken dish only had 5 pieces? They fill it to the brim down the street at So Thai :|

This is definitely the best Thai restaurant around the Waterford area. I ordered both the Gang Gai and green curry and I am shocked because I ordered the same thing from a different place. I'd recommend the red curry here for sure. Good amount of salt and has a good amount of curry to coconut ratio. Not many places get this right, and I'm very happy with this. Picture isn't elegant, but the taste is great. It's much cheaper than alternatives as well - $12 for the dish.
