About Us
Where Curry Meets Jazz
From Thailand to Texas: Our Journey
Our story began with a dream — to share the flavors and heart of Thailand with our new home. After moving from Thailand to the Pacific Northwest, we opened our first restaurant in 1998.
For over 20 years, we’ve proudly served authentic Thai dishes in Oregon before bringing that same passion to Richmond, Texas. Our goal remains the same: to bring the traditional taste of Thailand to you, making sure each meal is prepared and served with our love and passion for sharing our family recipe
The Meaning Behind “Kati”
“Kati” means coconut🥥milk in Thai — a key ingredient in our cuisine. Coconut milk gives Thai dishes their rich, creamy flavor and smooth texture. It’s used in everything from curries to desserts, and to us, it represents comfort, family, and home. That’s exactly what we want you to feel when you come dine with us.
Cooking with Heart & Fresh Ingredients
Every dish we serve, from Pad Thai and Pad Kra Prow to Yellow and Red Curry, is made with fresh, quality ingredients and cooked to order. We don’t take shortcuts. Our kitchen stays true to Thai flavors by using the same recipes passed down through generations in our family. That’s what makes our food so flavorful and memorable.
More Than a Meal
At Kati Thai Eatery, our mission is simple: to bring people together through food. We believe a good meal can tell a story, spark joy, and create community. Whether you’re new to Thai cuisine or a longtime fan, we’re here to welcome you with warmth, flavor, and a taste of Thailand made with love. Come dine with us or order online—your seat at our table is waiting!
