Lom Wong: Next level Thai cuisine

This downtown Phoenix restaurant presents cuisine from all over Thailand with a focus on creating an environment where people can sit together and gather while enjoying a flavorful, authentic meal.

The menu at Lom Wong is crafted and structured in a way that showcases different Thai towns’ dishes, with handcrafted ingredients such as their hand-pounded curry powder and hand-squeezed coconut milk.

The restaurant is owned by a husband and wife team who strive to create a high-quality experience for all their guests.

“The restaurant here is kind of like my soul from the family,” owner Yotaka “Sunny” Martin said. “I want people to feel welcomed home.”

Lom Wong is “Check, Please! Arizona” guest Mikaela Hatfield’s recommendation, which she praises highly.

“Lom Wong is so awesome because it’s Thai cuisine on a level you’ve never seen before,” Hatfield said. “The vegetable dishes really stand out. They can elevate vegetable dishes to something I could never replicate at home.”

Hatfield opted for the curated customer experience, where the staff pick out dishes for your party allowing you to explore new options you might not have chosen off the menu.

Guest Susan Sharp sampled their chicken wings, describing them as “the best wings I’ve ever had.”

“We were blown away,” Sharp said. “Everything was prepared amazingly.”

Guests were also pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the seafood selection Lom Wong offers, especially the crab which is served in various dishes.

You can pair your meal with something from their specialty cocktail menu that showcases Thai flavors or wine from their wide selection of options.

Hatfield’s pro tip: Bring a big group, and get ready to eat. She also recommends choosing a variety of dishes so you can sample all the different flavors.
