An absolutely outstanding dining experience. Molam exceeded our expectations in every way. The food was exceptional—full of authentic flavours, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with great care and attention to detail. Every dish was fresh, perfectly balanced, and packed with flavour. The service was equally impressive: warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling intrusive. The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed, making it a fantastic place for anything from a casual dinner to a special occasion. Without a doubt, one of the best Thai restaurants I've visited. If you're in Kraków and appreciate authentic, high-quality Thai cuisine, Molam is an absolute must-visit. We'll definitely be back.
Absolutely amazing! The food quality was incredible: flavors, contrasts and consistencies. We went on a culinary journey through Thailand. The Pik Gai Tod (wings) and Cap Moo were the perfect crunchy, sweet-and-spicy openers. The contrast between the fresh, zesty Yam Pla Salmon and the rich, comforting depth of the Khao Soi Gai was mind-blowing. The absolute highlight, though? The Moo Yang Secreto (grilled Iberico Bellota). Incredibly tender, smoky, and packed with flavor. Every single dish, including the Pad See Ew and the spicy Yam Moo Yang, was executed to perfection. Great drinks and fantastic vibes. A must-visit!
One of the best food experiences we've had. Love Thai food, lived there, and this place would stand out in Bangkok...Thai, but with a modern twist. Amazing. The pla yang, the som tam cucumber and the broaf beans were so good! A rare 10 out of 10 from us!
As a Thai visitor in Kraków, I was so happy to discover this beautiful Thai restaurant. The name, atmosphere, and traditional Thai-style decoration made me feel at home. Although the flavors are slightly different from authentic Thai food in Thailand, every dish was absolutely delicious. I truly appreciate the effort and passion behind bringing Thai cuisine to Poland. I am proud to see Thai food represented so well here. The staff were also incredibly friendly, welcoming, and pleasant to talk to, which made the experience even more special. If I visit Kraków again, I will definitely come back, and I will recommend this restaurant to my Thai friends. Thank you for the wonderful Thai food and warm hospitality. 🇹🇭🇵🇱🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
I can't say enough about this restaurant. I happened to stay one block away while visiting Krakow. In a 9 day trip, I went 5 times. The energy, the food, the atmosphere, the music, the staff: Everything is done at an extremely high level. Definitely try to sit at the open kitchen bar, the chefs are great to talk to. I felt so welcomed by everyone I interacted with: Dominika, Igor, Matthew, Ben, Bartek, Miska, Martyna. You all are wonderful people, and it made my trip so memorable and was one of the reasons I kept coming back. Hope to see you all next year when I come back to Poland. Dziękuję!
